Lunchbox
It's here, man. It's here. I got it. I got to get a nap.
Sizz
Throat cold.
Lunchbox
What? No, no, there was no throat cold. Was there something in my throat?
Sizz
No.
Lunchbox
Oh. Oh, man. Coaches convention. It's here, man. I got to get a nap before tonight it starts. These guys have already been going crazy.
Sizz
Well, that's why. What was our theme? The last podcast? I kind of forget it.
Lunchbox
No more outside noise.
Sizz
Baser hits me with, hey, we're doing brunch at 11:00am Are you packing all your stuff tonight? Oh, 11:00am the convention starts. Look at the schedule. It's not till tonight that the convention starts.
Lunchbox
According to my schedule, it starts tonight.
Sizz
But they were out last night, though.
Lunchbox
And I saw Twin and Lori. They were out on Wednesday night. He was wearing his nasty garbage bags covered in cowboy logos out to the bars. They were drinking Wednesday night. Then boom. A bunch of them got into town last night. They did the party bus last night.
Sizz
Are you sure? It was confirmed Wednesday. People were showing up.
Lunchbox
Confirmed Wednesday. People were showing up. That means people are ready for the convention.
Sizz
That tells me everything I need to know. Next year we do it a week.
Lunchbox
Oh, my gosh. Could you imagine trying to do a week?
Sizz
We would be hooked up to IVs about midweek, getting our stomachs pumped. Dude, you would be on your deathbed. You would have two hanging, banging issues. You definitely have contracted the flu. You'd run out of Cialis.
Lunchbox
Dude.
Sizz
It would be a major situation. Baser would be coming in with clothes, replenishments, hydration stuff. My sister would have a flight canceled, a flight rebooked, get stuck in Detroit. Because that's what happened. Oh, no, she's not making the convention.
Lunchbox
No kidding. Oh, Baser, why you got to do that?
Sizz
I could set you up easily. And you put it on a T for me. So Baser gets on the Internet. Maria, Muffy flies to Detroit. Good. But Minnesota, there's no planes going out. They're getting feet of snow. So Muffy was not gonna Have a flight. She had to go do standby.
Lunchbox
Oh, so this is real.
Sizz
This just happened.
Lunchbox
Okay, go ahead.
Sizz
Was supposed to be here at 5. I went to bed, I don't know where, when she came in, but she's stuck in Detroit. They find her a flight. So she just goes and stands at a gate on standby. And so I said dumbly to baser, I go, so some people just don't go to their flights. Like, so she'll never get a flight if it says the flight's booked because the other one canceled.
Lunchbox
Correct.
Sizz
She would have never made it, or it would have been two days late or something. So I go, bazer. So you tell me people just at their house go, I don't want to go to my flight. And baser said, think about what you're saying. There's other flights that get canceled so people can't make that flight.
Lunchbox
Oh, you know what happened to me one time?
Sizz
I was like, so the only way Muffy gets here is if two people are too lazy on their couch that they don't want to go catch their flight.
Lunchbox
Or they're sitting at a bar in the airport and they've had one too many, and they don't realize what time it is. Because when you hear them say, jeremy Jeremiah Sunden, please report to gate A26. This is your last call. Jeremiah Sunden, gate A26. We are closing the doors for departure. That means that individual checked in to their flight, so they have to be in the airport somewhere.
Sizz
So that's also another way it goes down.
Lunchbox
Correct.
Sizz
But Muffy is standing. I don't call her Muffy to her face. And I guess I don't even say that anymore. We may need to change her nickname.
Lunchbox
Well, I mean, the fact that you called her Muff in the first place was a little weird.
Sizz
I still so hard to say that nickname. Muffy is waiting standby, and they go, yeah, there was a person that didn't show up or their flight got canceled in some other state. So she jumped on a flight that wasn't hers for free. They allow you to do that. And got in late last night.
Lunchbox
So she flew straight from Detroit to here. Yeah. Wow. So she didn't have to do the connector.
Sizz
That was the connector she's from. She flew from Gwynne to Detroit.
Lunchbox
She was going to go to Minnesota.
Sizz
No, Minnesota. Her flight that. The plane that she gets that she's supposed to go on, you know, flies around the country before it comes to Detroit. So baser looked it up and said, hey, that flight is stuck in Minnesota.
Lunchbox
Oh, the flight that was coming from Minnesota to Detroit was stuck.
Sizz
Yes.
Lunchbox
Thank you.
Sizz
Sorry, a little confusing. So baser was one step ahead. So she goes, right, when you get there, go to a ticket counter and just say, hey, I need to get put on standby. And baser told her the gate number to go stand at the ticket counter for wow. So she did, and there was two and then it ended up being one and she got on wow. Saw her stuff this morning.
Lunchbox
Did you go in and give her a kiss? No.
Sizz
The cat was probably already doing that. Nose kisses.
Lunchbox
The weird thing is I've only flown standby one time.
Sizz
I've never done it well. So you tell me people are just too lazy on their couch having sex that they don't want to catch their flights. That's the only way you're going to get on that flight?
Lunchbox
Pretty much. I was at the. So it was my Dachelor party. I was going to Vegas with Ryan Garrett. Greg for chest day.
Sizz
Batter.
Lunchbox
No, batter's box.
Sizz
Batter's box.
Lunchbox
What up, everybody? It's batter's box. We were going to have a bender in Vegas. And my flight out was at 4:30pm and I look at the weather and there is monsoons heading for Nashville. And I'm like, oh, my gosh, my flight's going to get canceled. They're talking about, oh, you know, the airport may shut down, there's going to be high winds. And I'm like, I'm not going to make it.
Sizz
We have never seen a storm like this before. Nashville.
Lunchbox
I said, oh, crap, I bet there's a flight at 2 o'. Clock. I'm going to have to go to the airport so early.
Sizz
You pulled a baser forethought.
Lunchbox
And I'm going to. I'm going to try to get on. And my fiance at the time, now, my wife was like, don't do that. Just wait for your flight. You're gonna be fine. And I said, but the other flight says sold out. She goes, well, yeah, that's probably not a good sign. I said, I'm going anyway. I'm going to the airport. So I got to the airport three hours early or whatever time it was. It was 11 o' clock flights. At 2, I left straight from work and I go up to the ticket counter and I'm like, hey, there's like an hour and a half before the flight. I said, hey, man, like, is there. Can I get. Get on this flight? I'm sorry, man, it's completely booked. Let Me? Go ahead and put your name down. Come back and see me. With 20 minutes left before the flight.
Sizz
The guy's like, what, are you, on the Amazing Race? Get on the flight you were booked with?
Lunchbox
Yeah. And so I sit there and sit there and sit there, and I look at my phone, and I look at my phone, and exactly 20 minutes till the flight. Not 19, not 21. I walk back up to the counter, and the lady's like, well, there's this one. There's only one person not here, but it says they were on another flight and they landed here in Nashville. So they're. They're probably here somewhere. She called her name over the pa. You know what? Let me just put you on the.
Sizz
Flight that wasn't protocol.
Lunchbox
And took that lady on. Off the flight because she wasn't there 20 minutes prior to boarding.
Sizz
I'm tired of waiting for her. What's your name? Gibbles.
Lunchbox
Exactly. And I swear, as I was getting on the Runway or the jetway, whatever you call it, I hear that lady come up to the counter. Did you guys call my name?
Sizz
And she's like, you're hurrying up to scan your phone.
Lunchbox
And I'm like. I'm like, hurry, hurry, hurry. Take my ticket. Take my ticket. And I hear the lady say, I was just sitting at gate 12, I guess, because 24. Because, you know, at the end where there's, like, four gates all together, probably not anymore.
Sizz
These airports have gotten 100 renovations.
Lunchbox
I was just sitting right there. I guess I was at the wrong gate. And I'm sorry, man. No, no, I was here, and I was like. I went on, and guess what? My flight got canceled. My later flight got canceled. So that was the only flight. So, like, muff, I would have missed my Dachelor party if it wasn't for the angel sitting at that counter getting me there.
Sizz
And also, if you're a college kid and you see somebody desperate to get on the flight, you could always just say, hey, man, I'll miss. So would you miss the flight? Do you get penalized and say, hey, I'll take $200 if you want to get on this flight.
Lunchbox
If you want to venmo me 200.
Sizz
Right. But then what if. Is there a penalty to you for doing. Because why wouldn't you just do it outside of the airline?
Lunchbox
You do your own deal.
Sizz
Like, I was thinking, if you're loaded, I guess you'd be on a private flight. But if you're semi loaded, you just go up to a random person at a gate. Hey, I'll give you $300. I gotta get home for Christmas. Oh, that's like home alone.
Lunchbox
Yeah.
Sizz
See all the people. The people that are mean. Okay, we'll give you one gold watch. These. These are really beautiful earrings. And then the guy comes over, he's like, no, honey, we gotta get on this flight. You remember that? She's trying to get the tickets.
Lunchbox
She's trying to barter.
Sizz
D, you love these earrings. Oh, yes, yes, yes.
Lunchbox
That's like, the first convention we had in Vegas, there was a couple. I want to say two guys. No, it was a girl and a dude. I think they were engaged in their friend, and they were from South Dakota. North Dakota somewhere. I don't know. But their flight got canceled leaving, and they got stuck in Vegas an extra two days because there was so much snow wherever they were going. And I will never forget, they were like, all right, we're leaving. We're going to the airport. And like, three hours later, they showed back up. And like, what are you guys doing? Our flight was canceled. They can't get us out for two days. All the flights are booked. And I was like, oh. And we've never heard from them since. Don't know if they even still listen to the pod.
Sizz
But also, it's snowy places. Michigan, Minnesota, North Dakotas. If you're in the middle of the country and south, you're pretty much fine all the time.
Lunchbox
Yeah, I think you're right. Except for I was almost not okay right here in Nashville. And it felt so good to get to that Dachela party. And I got on that plane, and I was just like. I mean, when that lady got up and I saw her, I was like, man, sorry, lady, I don't care about you. Bleep.
Sizz
Might have been a tip of the cap to the Bobby Bone show.
Lunchbox
It might have. And you know what? I should have tip that lady working the counter.
Sizz
Here's a $1 bill, here's a 5.
Lunchbox
Thanks for getting me on that flight because I'm going to Vegas for my Dachel party.
Sizz
This guy was saying, I saw it on Instagram. He's giving tips in Vegas when you slip people money. He said, if you're trying to get into a club, it's got to be $100. Which he goes at the front desk, if you want to get a room upgrade, slip them a 20. They never accept money, though. Really? Or it seems like it doesn't make a difference.
Lunchbox
I don't think it makes a difference.
Sizz
Okay. So then he said. And then that was his Only two tips, but I was like, the hundred dollars for sure. You better be getting into a club.
Lunchbox
Is that your boy Sirianni?
Sizz
No, but the $20, he goes, you could get a suite at a hotel.
Lunchbox
Nah, I don't think for 20 bucks you're getting a suite. Maybe I'm. Call me crazy, but I'm saying if.
Sizz
You tip them a hundred, that then you should have just upgraded in the first place.
Lunchbox
I will say, when we went to Vegas in the early days, I met this chick. So there was a girl in Austin that listened to the show, and her sister lived in Vegas. And her sister came to town one night and they met. They came out the 6th street and I met her. Pure Ultra lounge. Got her number, and every time we went to Vegas, I'd hit her up and she'd walk us right into the clubs, right in.
Sizz
She was what, a bar girl?
Lunchbox
No, she just knew people. She lived in Vegas and she was a smoke show.
Sizz
Speaking of bar girls, have you seen how they dress at dailies?
Lunchbox
No. Is it awesome?
Sizz
No. I mean, yeah, if you're single. I went to their Instagram and they're not wearing a lot of clothes.
Lunchbox
I love it.
Sizz
So, I mean, maybe it was just a promotional thing or our losers already could have experienced that last night.
Lunchbox
That's going to be great for the happy hour tonight.
Sizz
But, I mean, it's. I mean, some of them were in the French maid outfits.
Lunchbox
Don't hate it.
Sizz
How's it going, Gibbles? Nice to meet you. A beautiful establishment y' all have. We're the sore losers.
Lunchbox
We are doing the Watch party there on Sunday for that reason.
Sizz
The other one I saw of the. On their Instagram, it was the girls wore chaps.
Lunchbox
Whoa.
Sizz
Without, like, backs to them.
Lunchbox
Man, this convention is going to be awesome, dude.
Sizz
Can you imagine Cappy?
Lunchbox
Oh, Captain's going to be drooling all over the place. Do we're going to have a bucket following him around?
Sizz
Hey, spill on aisle five. Gappy's all over the place.
Lunchbox
Hey, Cappy, don't slip in your own drool, man. Relax, man. It's like skidding off the road when it's raining.
Sizz
Cappy is coming. Bazer hit him up.
Lunchbox
Really?
Sizz
Yeah. She got his number one convention, and he goes, yeah, he's rolling.
Lunchbox
I love it.
Sizz
No pun here.
Lunchbox
You want to hear a great post? Here it is. I remember feeling so intimidated at our first coaches convention. CC2, standing outside waiting for the doors to open to the happy hour. Several people were reconnecting with CC1 friends and I felt so out of place. Soon the doors opened. Everyone was in a great mood, so welcoming, introducing themselves to us, making small talk. And when lb, Ray and the other guys showed up, the party really got going. I took it all in, kicking myself for not attending CC1 and quickly feeling like I was a part of a special group. The red bet was iconic and the weekend just got better and better. As I begin packing for CC5, I feel melancholy, glad to be part of this group of degenerates, anxious to see people I consider dear friends. A special thanks to the guys for putting up with us all for a whole weekend. Any first time attendees, fear not. You're about to be part of a special group of folks thank. Thanks to LB's left armpit. Sore losers. Nation for life. That's from Becky Ferenbacher. I mean, that is. That's legit. That is summing up your feelings in a great post.
Sizz
Well, I was trying to pull up the red bet, but I can never remember how we saved it. Or. Or maybe the midday show deleted that. Like they threw away my cat calendar.
Lunchbox
Oh, dude, if you can find that first red bet, I. The video is still probably the funniest thing ever, is when that dude, that is not even part of the group is getting rammed into the table. Just rammed. With all hundred people surrounding that table like a freaking mob. That was incredible. There's no way you're gonna be able to find it.
Sizz
Why would I have not saved it.
Lunchbox
As red bet or roulette or coaches convention bet or. Oh, my gosh, we just won a lot of money. Oh, my gosh. The left armpit dream. When I was in the shower and I was washing my left armpit with the soap and I had this vision to do a convention and it all came to fruition and here we are five years later.
Sizz
You get that one night where you get to go out with the fellas and we went to like a Super bowl party with a bunch of the group and all that stuff, which is cool to be able to do. Team Cumarad. What is it?
Lunchbox
I. I don't know what that is.
Sizz
I can't hear it. I don't have my headphones. What was it?
Lunchbox
There was something about something going out. You get one night, your super bowl party with your buds.
Sizz
Who was it?
Lunchbox
I. I don't know.
Sizz
It's in. It's titled. Clip 1 cc roulette setup. Clip 2 cc roulette payoff.
Lunchbox
Yeah, I don't know who that is.
Sizz
All right.
Lunchbox
I literally had no idea. I Was like, I don't remember us talking like that before the roulette bet, but that's funny.
Sizz
Ashley Ruiz riding on Cappy's lap all the way down. That was CC2.
Lunchbox
That was CC2. And then I'll tell you another thing that happened at CC2. I watched her. I watched her give $20 for. For the bet. $20.
Sizz
I'm remembering this controversy, and she put.
Lunchbox
It in the stack, and we go down and we bet and we win. And she's like, hey, I put 100 in. And being there being drama about her thinking whoever was trying to steal her money, she was being shorted $80. And to settle the drama, your boy gave up his winnings. I had to give $80 because I was like, I'm not. This is not worth it. This is not worth the fight and the drama and everybody being mad at each other here. Even though I saw you only put in $20, I'm gonna give you the $80 that you think you're owed.
Sizz
You're telling me three years later, you're just now coming out with this?
Lunchbox
Yeah, I've been holding on to it, man.
Sizz
Well, attracts.
Lunchbox
I mean, 100%. I watched her put $20 in the pot and then demand 100.
Sizz
Oh, okay. And that's why she's not coming to this convention.
Lunchbox
No, I saw her name on the list.
Sizz
No, you didn't.
Lunchbox
No, she didn't. She didn't buy a ticket.
Sizz
Did I tell you I saw her?
Lunchbox
No.
Sizz
After the break.
Lunchbox
What? What? Yeah, after the break is right. Oh, my gosh. We'll be right back.

Lunchbox
Hit me with it.
Sizz
Well, I've probably never told the story or really the fallout with.
Lunchbox
Yeah, you did. You told us about it. You went to a concert. I did, and it was awkward.
Sizz
I told that on the podcast.
Lunchbox
Yep.
Sizz
I think I might have just told you.
Lunchbox
No, you told it on the pod.
Sizz
Anyways, there was a falling out.
Lunchbox
You guys went to go see Ali Colleen in Kentucky.
Sizz
I don't love fallouts at all, but sometimes they just fall out.
Lunchbox
But Fallout Boy legit.
Sizz
So sometimes when people get actually block an aisle and will not let you leave a concert, yell at you, go to a bar, and try and turn you against your wife, weird stuff like that, then you just have to have a Falling out. So we hadn't talked to Ruiz in like a year. We didn't Instagram. We don't dm, we don't text, we don't hang out. Year I go to the mall and I go to the memorabilia place for her birthday.
Lunchbox
For what?
Sizz
For Bazer.
Lunchbox
Oh, you were getting Baser an autograph.
Sizz
Yeah. They have a movie autograph. Celebs. It's not just sports.
Lunchbox
Got it. Didn't realize that there was a. Huh. Who are you getting her? Peyton Manning. Oh, honey, you'll really love this.
Sizz
I got her Jennifer Aniston.
Lunchbox
Got it.
Sizz
It's worth like 200 if she dies. A thousand. So I come around the corner to this memorabilia store, and once you come around the corner, you're in. There's no turning backs. It's kind of a wide open entrance. So. Yeah, you would look like a fool if you did a 180.
Lunchbox
So it's like one of those big ones in the mall where they had to put the gate down.
Sizz
Yeah, I come in hot and in a prej jersey. There is Ruiz.
Lunchbox
Oh, boy.
Sizz
So I had to talk to her for 20 minutes. It was great conversation.
Lunchbox
Did she see you or did you.
Sizz
See her same time? And I guess she was doing part time work with them. It was seasonal. She had another job that they allowed her to do.
Lunchbox
Oh, she was working there?
Sizz
Yeah.
Lunchbox
Oh, got it. I thought she was just shopping.
Sizz
Didn't know the store very well. Asked her a couple of questions. She had no idea. So I was like, okay, I guess we're just gonna have straight up conversation because we can't even talk about these products because you don't know them. So we were just like, yeah, sorry about the fallout. How you been? And I'm like, oh, I see you on Instagram. See, things are good. You know, she had a boyfriend. And she goes, I see you guys are good. I'm like, we're good. But that's kind of where we left it. We just said hi, bye. Sorry. Gave her a hug.
Lunchbox
That's my next question. Hug or no hug?
Sizz
Yeah, definitely hug.
Lunchbox
Definitely hug.
Sizz
She gave me a discount.
Lunchbox
Gotta check those knockers.
Sizz
She hit me with the discount.
Lunchbox
Did you give her side hug or full on straight?
Sizz
It was probably straight on.
Lunchbox
That's what I'm talking about.
Sizz
I mean, we used to be room, not roommates. We used to be neighbors for four years and go to pools every weekend together.
Lunchbox
Yeah. So I guess you didn't get that close to her because that hug, I mean, those things were pushing you away. Probably yeah.
Sizz
And so then she, you know, I put the olive branch out. She also had an olive branch in her hand. She goes, I'll give you 20 discount.
Lunchbox
That's what I'm talking about.
Sizz
So that's where we left it. Good terms.
Lunchbox
Good. So have you gone back to see her?
Sizz
No, I've been getting all my memorabilia online since then. Man.
Lunchbox
See, I will say I find it funny. So your wife has a Jennifer Aniston autograph hanging up in the house, in the gym.
Sizz
It kind of.
Lunchbox
What is it like? Tell me, is it a picture of her on Friends, or is it just like a headshot? She signed it.
Sizz
Headshot. She signed it. But they did it up all nice. So it's. It's already framed. And it has a awesome back in the day shot of when she was on Friends autograph. Boom. You put in the gym. It's just. It's because we also had a Camila Cabello randomly autographed. So it kind of goes with like a female type gym autograph. And then I'm going to put up some iheartradio. We got Kelsey Ballerini autograph. We got Sam Hunt autograph. So that's kind of the feel of the room. It's not just randomly. You come into my house, there's Jennifer Aniston's autograph.
Lunchbox
I guess I've never really thought of a movie star's autograph. I never even. It never crossed my mind. Or a TV person. That is just so interesting. I thought people just took pictures with them. Never realized you would see Brad Pitt and ask him for an autograph unit.
Sizz
I wanted to get. Tell me, Hulk, two weeks later, he dies, bro. I would. I would have 20 times. 20. Fold my money, dude.
Lunchbox
DJ Silver, who used to do the club in Austin, used to do Pure Ultra Lounge with me. He. I talked to him randomly every now and then, and he was like, oh, yeah, down in Florida. Our house in Florida. You know who's our neighbors? Terry. I'm like, Terry. He goes, hulk Hogan. He goes, man, we hang out all the time. Blah, blah, blah. And he sent me pictures of autographs that he sent him. Two weeks later. Oh, died. And I was like, oh, my gosh. Crazy. Crazy.
Sizz
Even crazier. Your friends on the DJ scene. What? You didn't message DJ Pauly D?
Lunchbox
No, I don't know Pauly D. I just know Silver.
Sizz
He's friends with DJ Silver.
Lunchbox
I am.
Sizz
Hey, lunch man. I'm great friends with this DJ at John Daly's.
Lunchbox
No, hey, let me tell you, DJ.
Sizz
Silver friends with DJs, but DJ Silver.
Lunchbox
Now goes on the road without Dean. I know, but that's what I'm saying. Like, we started at Pure Ultra Lounge together. Like, we were both there.
Sizz
Oh, you work together?
Lunchbox
Yes.
Sizz
Okay, I didn't know that.
Lunchbox
Yes.
Sizz
I wanted to know randomly how you were friends with a dj.
Lunchbox
Yes. I would be on the mic in Pure ultra Lounge on 6th Street. Like, what up, $2? Well, let's go, DJ Silver. And he would play the music crazy, though.
Sizz
He must have been doing real good if he was neighbors with Terry.
Lunchbox
That's what I'm saying. He must be making some coin, because.
Sizz
Terry's got the wrestling stuff, the TV show, the beer, All American beer. He was promoting it on McAfee this summer. Amazing interview. Two months later, croaked. Oh, go back and listen to it. It was a phenomenal. I was out watering the trees. I remember like it was yesterday. Amazing interview, just so open. And Pat. Pat always says how. It's real, man. He. We're real. Pat's real. He goes, hey, man, but you had some of that negative stuff because he got busted for the N word. Oh, Pat brought it right to him. And Colts, like, I know, I know, I know. You know. And then. But it was just a great interview. Open. He's telling him about business, saying how he's not able to walk really much anymore. He's like, I'm getting better. How he's touring, talking about his beer. Dude, he was so with it. Two months later, croaked. Wow, Ray, what you trying to say about me and my Cls?
Lunchbox
We better start the show, man.
Sizz
Guys, lunch was a hell of a podcaster. Two months later, croaked.
Lunchbox
God, don't say please. No, I can't croak yet, man. I don't want to croak. I don't. I don't.
Sizz
I would take care of your kids.
Lunchbox
No, that. That worries me. That worries me. I. I don't need you taking care of.
Sizz
All right, guys, new rules.
Lunchbox
You sit down and shut up.
Sizz
Nobody touches the walls. This crap where you leave a friend's house and run home? That doesn't happen. Soccer ball is now a basketball. And, yeah, you don't get to just go through a doggy door. Instead of an entrance, like open a door to go into a house. We don't do the doggy door crawling thing. That's for animals. Your people. All right. And the Nashville season ticket, Nashville fc. I canceled them. We're not going anywhere.
Lunchbox
You're gonna watch football, basketball, and that's it Maybe a little bit of baseball.
Sizz
Oh, at bedtime. What was it with dad? It was 8:30. All right, it's 5:30 now. We gotta start the show, man. We gotta start it.
Lunchbox
Oh, man, there's a lot of newbies this year.
Sizz
There really are. I was clicking on some Facebook pictures. Don't recognize them.
Lunchbox
A tour and his girl.
Sizz
Who is this lizard?
Lunchbox
I feel bad for Randy. A tour's girl, because I don't know her name, but I know Randy.
Sizz
Well, a lot of them have divorced. A lot of them have switched partners. There's that as well.
Lunchbox
No, no, but Randy, he posts on the Facebook and he. I don't know his chicks. He's picture. Oh, my girl's the best. She got me tickets to the Nuggets game. I don't know her name though.
Sizz
Well, and then you got, you know, I'll just. John Doe, just for example. I'll be like, whoa, John, you're with a woman last year. The hell happened in a year? You know, there's that as well.
Lunchbox
I. I did make that mistake one time, man. I did make that mistake one time.
Sizz
Guy was with his boyfriend.
Lunchbox
No, no, no.
Sizz
I'm turning the music down.
Lunchbox
No, where's your wife?
Sizz
I'm gay.
Lunchbox
No, no, no. I said, oh, your wife didn't want to come this year. And he goes, my wife decided she didn't want to be married to me anymore.
Sizz
Note to self, for the convention, don't talk about significant others.
Lunchbox
I was like, oh, that's my bad, man.
Sizz
We want to talk to you though.
Lunchbox
I was like, that's on me. That's on me.
Sizz
Coach goes hard after the marriage.
Lunchbox
No, no, I didn't. I just said, oh, we're, you know. You didn't bring the wife this year? Wife decided she didn't want to be married to me anymore. Okay, man. Well, how about those Pittsburgh Penguins, man? That was a rough one.
Sizz
You got to be careful when they're not with the person, especially here around the office, because they're probably divorced. You know, company party, you don't go in hot. Hey, where's the mister? We had an affair. I'm no longer married. Oh, okay.
Lunchbox
Yeah, that's my fault. That's on me as.
Sizz
I mean, when they're not with the person, you don't bring them up.
Lunchbox
Don't bring them up. And I've learned my lesson. I just say, how are you doing? Hey, Jim, where's your old lady? Where's Sally?
Sizz
We had a devastating divorce. They did discovery. I lost half my assets. And the kids. Thanks.
Lunchbox
Oh, let's. Yeah.
Sizz
Let's start the show, man.
Lunchbox
Yeah, let's. Let's talk about something positive, man.
Sizz
We're gonna do it live. We are the 1, 2, 3. 3.
Lunchbox
So. Losers. What up, everybody? I am Lunchbox. I know the most about sports, so I give the sports facts, my sports opinions, because I'm pretty much a sports genius, y'. All.
Sizz
It's Sizz. I'm from the North. I'm an alpha male. I live on the north side of Nashville. This weekend, I will be living downtown, baby. Back on Broadway, back at the penthouse. Love it. Downtown. But, yeah, 2.33 acres when we live at the country and we got two kids at Vanderbilt defrosting. Justin, he's supposed to be checking in on them. He moved back to Michigan, quit his job. He's now searching for employment. They're doing well. He'll find something very soon. Not going to be able to go to the convention. That has been confirmed. Unless he's doing some Gotcha thing. And he got a flight late last night, but he will not be there. He is in recovery. He is. For the next couple of weeks, he'll be a New Beginnings Avenue over to you, ma'.
Lunchbox
Am. Batter's Box will not be at the convention. Dang. Yeah.
Sizz
Still waiting for a family member to help.
Lunchbox
Toolbox will not be at the convention.
Sizz
See, they wanted the Vegas ones. Remember when no Teeth and your dad were gonna drive out?
Lunchbox
My dad was gonna drive to Vegas, and I tried to explain them how far that is. He didn't really conceptualize that. It's like it would take him, like, three days.
Sizz
To finally decide to pull up a map.
Lunchbox
And then by the time he got there, he'd be exhausted and he wouldn't have any fun. So, yeah, he will not be there. No Teeth Keith will not be at the convention. Chest Day. Not going to be at the convention. Cousin Andrew not going to be at the convention.
Sizz
Or it could be, like, my sister, very supportive. Rest of my family. My dad just drilling away in the text messages. Hey, guys, here's our weather. Hey, guys, there was a trade in baseball. The Tigers or Kyle Tucker now is with the Dodgers.
Lunchbox
Oh, my God. I mean, can we stop?
Sizz
Dad? Dad, are you going to bring up the convention? Good luck, son, on your huge Super Bowl.
Lunchbox
Nope.
Sizz
Just blows right through it. Hey, guys, here's our weather. Whoa, look at this in politics. Hey, have a great weekend, guys. Dad, the thing that your daughter's going to. I put on with my. My friend. The convention. All it takes Is three words. Good luck weekend. I mean, good gosh, man. And then Monday will happen. Never. No. No mention of it. How did the convention go, Guys? Sometimes there's just simple sentences you should add to your vocabulary.
Lunchbox
Yeah. My wife even texted me this morning. Happy convention Friday. Whoa, whoa. So she's excited. Yeah.
Sizz
It's got to be. It's the beginning of the convention.
Lunchbox
Yeah.
Sizz
So. And I mean, she's very well involved with it.
Lunchbox
Yes.
Sizz
And Baes are involved as well. So I'm saying, like, awesome. My sister comes. And outside of that, Billy, where's my text? Good luck with your convention, Eric Dodd.
Lunchbox
I can't believe Billy's not even going.
Sizz
Billy only goes on benders in Vegas and strippers.
Lunchbox
Got it.
Sizz
Eric Dodd. Good luck with your convention, dude. I don't have a lot of friends that reach out. Oh, Heather Bazer's friend. So supportive. She wants to come. Gotta be careful. Some of those truckers, man, try and grab her. But regardless, that's beside the point. The friends that support and the friends that don't. I'm almost drawing a line right now.
Lunchbox
I saw Colby White. He pulled up in his truck.
Sizz
Got a.
Lunchbox
We got to tell him.
Sizz
He's supportive.
Lunchbox
We got to tell him. You have his number?
Sizz
Yeah.
Lunchbox
Okay.
Sizz
We got McKitty. He's supportive.
Lunchbox
He's supportive.
Sizz
The other guy, not supportive.
Lunchbox
Not support.
Sizz
His odds have moved to 10,000 to show up at one day of the convention.
Lunchbox
It's supportive. Really don't know if he's going to show up.
Sizz
He hasn't said one word to me. But we've been busy. We've been hammered.
Lunchbox
We're going to have to go in there and tell them, hey, you're going to be there tomorrow. We'll take a break. We'll be right back.
Sizz
We're not even going to get to everything.
Lunchbox
I know, but I need to hear. You said local radio story.
Sizz
So I was listening to local radio, and in the three minutes I was listening to.
Lunchbox
Is this in the evening? The day Weekend.
Sizz
Oh. So don't know what that means. Better? Worse. People talkers. I have no idea. Talking heads. But I heard the worst story I've ever heard, and I heard a slur. All within three minutes.
Lunchbox
Whoa.
Sizz
He was segueing. I'll start with the Slurpee. He's Segwaying from Cooper Flag.
Lunchbox
Oh, no, no, no, no, no, no.
Sizz
He goes. Yep. Spurs are up there. They're up into the right. Man. You got the thunder. They're up into the right. Jury's still out on the Mavs and Cooper.
Lunchbox
No, he left off the L. Yeah.
Sizz
Hey, but he didn't even address it. He just cooked to the next story.
Lunchbox
Do you think he even noticed it?
Sizz
No, he did. Because the people in the room for sure were big eyes.
Lunchbox
Oh, man. Oh man.
Sizz
I go, that's not his name.
Lunchbox
I'm sure it's not. Every time I look at his jersey, it doesn't say that, but it is dangerous.
Sizz
If you're gonna say Cooper flag, just say Cooper.
Lunchbox
It's hard when you say a lot of things and a lot of names. There's gonna be slip ups. Absolutely. Eric Weinhauser, he's gonna join us next. And he is gay. I mean, he's gay. He's blind. I'm sorry. I'm.
Sizz
I'm so sorry. He's blind.
Lunchbox
He can't. He climbed Mount Kilimanjaro and he's gay. Gay. I mean, blind. Blind. Oh my gosh. We'll be right back. Jim. What was that? I mean that if you pull that up. I mean that that's exactly what that reminds me of.
Sizz
No, I didn't pull it up, man. Oh, for two.
Lunchbox
Okay, good, good. Now tell me the worst story you ever heard.
Sizz
And so then he's talking about Vanderbilt.
Lunchbox
Same guy.
Sizz
Yeah. Now he wants to talk about up into the right. Vanderbilt football. So. Yeah. So enough NBA. Let's talk college. College football. So I'm going for a walk in my neighborhood. Oh, this is a neighborhood I have. Me and my wife have lived there for 15 years. Walking through it, it's always Bama, Georgia, Ole Miss. There's all maybe some Clemson majority SEC school flags that are hanging up. You know, you got your American flags. I'm probably actually telling the story better than he is right now. And, and, and the other day. I am not kidding right now, Mike. Oh, tell us. Well, what, what happened? I was walking with my wife. There's the usual suspects of flags. And I saw a Vanderbilt flag. And not only that, I saw two Vanderbilt flags on my walk in the neighborhood. They are up and to the right. Oh, thank you, Jim. Beautiful story. We'll be back sports talk right after this. He said he went for a walk in his neighborhood, saw a Vandy flag. Hey, careful. He said flag again.
Lunchbox
Oh, he did say flag.
Sizz
He almost messed up again. He told two stories about flags. Well, maybe it was a heck of a bit.
Lunchbox
The swags is the theme. Dude, I'm gonna tell you. I went for a walk the other day.
Sizz
I wish you would have slipped up a Kid, and you'll never believe it.
Lunchbox
And there was a Vandy in my neighborhood.
Sizz
Hanging on one of the houses was a Vandy.
Lunchbox
Dude, now that you mentioned a Vandy flag. I went for a walk, took the dog for a walk the other day. Walking normal route, you know what I mean? Because you pretty much walk the same route. Yes, you walk the same route. There's only so many ways you can go left, right or straight on your street. You come up to the corner, you can either go left or right. I mean it's pretty easy to go around the neighborhood the same way every time. And I'm walking by this one house that I walk by all the time and they have a flag flying on their front porch. Now they got the little flag holder on the column, they got the little brackets and the flag points out towards the street. And they're flapping in the wind. A Carolina Panthers flag.
Sizz
Stop.
Lunchbox
I'm like, come on, it was bones house. Nobody in their right mind has ever flown a Carolina flag in the neighborhood. All of a sudden they make the playoffs and in the wind flaps the Carolina Panthers.
Sizz
We got Vols. And then there's people that will do preds. But then there's a random guy right next to the golf course who does Texas Rangers. Just stop, stop.
Lunchbox
I like it.
Sizz
No, I don't. Just it's. You're in Tennessee just in its baseball. It's like one of the third or fourth ranked sports. Like, stop.
Lunchbox
There's a house that I drive by on when I go pick up at one restaurant. They, they switch it out per season. They like have the NSC flag, they have a Bama flag and they have a W for the Cubs whenever they win. He puts out the W. So he, he, he rotates the flags. That's a lot of work.
Sizz
He's retired.
Lunchbox
Probably, probably doesn't do much.
Sizz
Hey, honey. Afternoon game, Cubs 1. Hey, would you mind rotating out the flag?
Lunchbox
Hey honey, I'm running late from work. The Cubs just won an afternoon game. We need to get that up for 5 o' clock traffic. Can you get that flag out there? Okay, Bill, I'll put it up there. So annoying. And he doesn't hang it on his house. He hangs it on the utility pole and like at the edge of his yard so everybody on the street can see it.
Sizz
Be cooler if he's in Chicago, but I like it. Appreciate the effort.
Lunchbox
And then I gotta say, I watched. I flipped on the TV the other night.
Sizz
Can we segue though from flag stories? Yeah, that was dangerous.
Lunchbox
No, we're off the flags.
Sizz
Thank you.
Lunchbox
And we're going to go to the flagship, and I'm going to talk about. I still don't understand it. I flip on the TV the other night, and they got that Tiger woods golf on again. I don't understand how people watch this.
Sizz
They don't. Do they just have to have a certain amount of programming? Because he's indoors and isn't it on.
Lunchbox
A VR machine, you're hitting into a screen, but at the very end, you're playing on the green. I don't understand.
Sizz
Like, I saw one guy telling Tiger, I don't even know if it was a new clip or an old one, where he goes, maybe it was Michael Kim. I want to say it was a. It was. Maybe. I believe it was him. And he goes, man, you're weird, dude. Because Tiger was saying how he hits it out of the bunker. And Michael Kim goes, you're weird, Tiger. You're weird, dude. And Tiger goes.
Lunchbox
I don't. I don't.
Sizz
I don't understand it, because golfers are kind of weird. So for. You know, I don't know if there's gonna be a lot of audio from golfers outside of Koepka, Rory and Justin Thomas.
Lunchbox
So I. I watched, like, 30 seconds of it, and the guy steps up and he drives it into the screen, and then it starts rolling. I don't understand. I. I didn't understand. So when it. When it lands on the green, they just go and place it there once.
Sizz
Oh, that probably is. Yeah.
Lunchbox
I watched 30 seconds, and my wife was like, is there a crowd there?
Sizz
There's.
Lunchbox
People actually go and watch this.
Sizz
Maybe it's better in person.
Lunchbox
She goes. I said, yeah. And I said, and it's so stupid. She goes, well, I mean, people go watch people play video games. So, I mean, it's not any different. I said, yes, But I don't understand. How is that on national television? How do people sit there in their homes, like, out of everything there is to watch on Hulu, on hbo Max, on Netflix, and you're tuning in to watch guys hit it into a screen. Give me a break. It's stupid.
Sizz
Good promotion of our Putt Putt event this weekend. But also.
Lunchbox
But that's not into a screen. You're actually putting the ball.
Sizz
There's so many TV shows that my thing is like, hey, man, there's a crazy new show. These zombies bang each other.
Lunchbox
Whoa.
Sizz
Like, there's so many different options.
Lunchbox
So many.
Sizz
I don't.
Lunchbox
There's no way you can keep up.
Sizz
But Right. I'm not trying to keep up, but when somebody says, hey, listen, man, I was watching this show with my wife, the number five out of five, two zombies drilling each other.
Lunchbox
You know what?
Sizz
I'm good. Even though it's a great show, I, I have all this other stuff I'm into. I'm into tropical stuff. I'm into a little bit of romance. I'm into some humor. I'm maybe if it's a mystery killing. Me and my wife are into that. But zombies banging. I don't care if 90% of the world has seen this Twilight Walking Dead where these people that are freezing cold try to have sex. I'm not watching it. My name's Bennett. I ain't in it. My name's Paul. That's up to y'. All.
Lunchbox
Yeah, I, I, I, I. I don't get to watch a lot of tv, so I can't. I can't argue with you. I have very few shows that I watch. Batter's Box yells at me. You've never watched. What the heck's that one called?
Sizz
Breaking Bad?
Lunchbox
Peaky Blinders? Oh, my God, it's so good. You've never seen Stranger Things? What are you doing? Well, I mean, I just don't have time.
Sizz
Well, in the one that Bones recommended, Reverence or he almost made me go watch, I think for the show. Stop, stop. This guy goes to work every day. Awesome. I want to watch a job about a guy or a movie about a guy going to work. Cool.
Lunchbox
Now, NFL playoffs, dude. This weekend. Now, first of all, we're not gonna be here Monday. So Indiana rolls on Monday night, right? Indiana's national champs. I'm. I'm hoping for that. Then this weekend, I don't know how we're not taking all the underdogs.
Sizz
I mean, signitty, signatty. Oh, I just came up with that. If nobody said it before, patent it.
Lunchbox
That was so good.
Sizz
I was just thinking of the T shirts. Have you seen they make it look like cigarettes in Marlboro?
Lunchbox
Oh, I haven't seen.
Sizz
It says Signetti and it has that red Marlboro. And I was just thinking of that and said Cignati.
Lunchbox
That's.
Sizz
I just came up with SportsCenter's A Block on Tuesday.
Lunchbox
You need to go ahead and. What do you call that? Trademark.
Sizz
I'm the first person. I'll.
Lunchbox
I'll text my father in law. He'll get it done.
Sizz
Tell Mary we make a million retire.
Lunchbox
Oh, dude, I would be out of here so fast. It's not Even funny. I'd be like, I do one last pod saying goodbye to everybody and then be like, catch me on the beach, man. I'll be out of here.
Sizz
And then one after that, I would be like, hey, every convention here till the end of time is canceled.
Lunchbox
Yeah. And here's the thing. I don't even like the beach. I don't even like the beach. So why do I always say I'd buy something at the beach? I hate the beach. But the view is amazing.
Sizz
And you're doing it wrong. But, yes, continue.
Lunchbox
Anyway, I mean, Buffalo going into Denver. Buffalo. Come on. Like, Bo Nix is going to beat Josh Allen. Stop.
Sizz
And a majority of the year, Bo Nix was bottom half in QBR rankings didn't really play very well, as people are saying.
Lunchbox
Yeah. And then, I mean, Houston is going to New England and they're getting three. I mean, I don't even know. New England hadn't played anybod all year either.
Sizz
There was a stat last week. Houston playing whoever they played in one Pittsburgh QBR when Bullock was thrown to 0.0. QBR. Like, you cannot get the ball anywhere near Bullock. He's a receiver on defense. He's the number one defensive player, number one free safety in the history of the world for Texans and then the Bears.
Lunchbox
I mean, you're going to give me a dome team. Matthew Stafford coming to the Frozen. Frozen. Frozen. Frozen. Chicago said, this may be one of the coldest games in the history of the NFL. Oh, my gosh, I can't wait. Let's freaking go.
Sizz
And he's got a bad thumb.
Lunchbox
And he's got a bad thumb.
Sizz
And he's got a bad case of in ears. Whoo. Things are white, man. He's been doing some interviews, or maybe they just finally got posted. They went a shade too white.
Lunchbox
But hey, guys, have a great weekend. We're going to the convention. If you ain't here, you're missing it. Your name is Bennett and you're not in it. Your name is Paul.
Sizz
And you leaving it up to y'.
Lunchbox
All. Yeah. You guys are missing it all. Oh, man, was that good.
Sizz
Yeah.
Lunchbox
All right. We're out the NFL this weekend. There should be some so good games.
Sizz
We're going to watch good games this weekend at the convention.
Lunchbox
We really are.
Sizz
Because we'll have Bills and then we'll have the next day. We'll have your or no, will it be 49ers at night, and then we'll have Texans the following Sunday.
Lunchbox
Yeah. You know what? I will say that I thought about it. We did see Buddy Glass and the Buffalo Bills play as part of our Watch Party Coaches convention too. And the only reason I remember this, I was like, oh, dude, finally Buddy Glass gets to watch his bills at the convention. He always has to watch the Chiefs. I think they played the Chiefs that day and he got so depressed that they lost. He walked out of Palace Station and he tried to walk back to the resorts world and that's when we passed him in the cab and he was just sitting on the train tracks.
Sizz
True story, too.
Lunchbox
True story. So that's when I remembered. I was like, he did get to see his bills play at the convention. Man, poor Buddy Glass. He's a fine human being. We got to go, man. I got to get. I'm taking a nap. I'm taking a nap today. Cannot wait for tonight.
Sizz
Get you a nap. And guys, on the Instagram, just search it. Sore Losers podcast. I put a map of the entire convention and I tagged all the people that we're going to be doing our events at. So you can just easily click them, see their profile, John Daly's. You can see the talent. They seem like a great service staff.
Lunchbox
Yeah. And I'm not getting a haircut. My hair looks good, so I'm not going to get a haircut. But I may shave. Do I need to shave? Do I look all right? All right. This is an I heart podcast. Guaranteed human.

The tone throughout is irreverent, conversational, and packed with inside references to their podcast community.
