Great to see you guys. First thing, you

Yeah. Yeah. You're going to get the team
ready and you're going to drink Pink
Whitney doing it. So, everyone, thank
you so much for supporting the brand,
drinking it the way you do. Uh, I still
can't believe, did you see the We talked
about the root beer and the Pink
Whitney, right? Did we mention that,
Biz? Okay, so I'm still like amazed. I
still haven't tried that one, but just
racking my brain for uh more things to
talk about with Pink Whitney. Biz,
you've been on an amazing wild ride in
Vancouver or outside Vancouver, I should
say. Season one peaking, give us a
grade, one out of 10.
Uh like 25
honestly, like I like I've done a lot of
[ __ ] in my day, boys. Like I got to play
in the NHL.
Uh want to call their cup. Not a big
deal. Um, you know, I've been able to
travel a a lot of places, but uh the
last week of my life has been one of the
most incredible journeys that I've ever
been on. And uh just like I I I I don't
even like I'm it's going to be so hard
to describe everything that we were able
to do, but I'm so excited for you guys
to see season one of peaking. And um
obviously it started off in on the
mainland um in in Vancouver and then it
ended up in uh in um uh like basically
halfway up island where something that
we hadn't even had planned at the start
of the trip. So just the way that it it
took a took a path like organically and
we ended up where we ended up was it was
just magical. So um you guys kind of
want me to just like start about how it
all all like went down.
Yeah. I I I want to know before all of
this, have you smoked weed? So,
So,
because I'm I I was like thinking of you
on this track, this amazing journey
we're going to hear about. I'm like, was he
he
So, so I took a rip out of a bong right
before I left the last place that we
left with a guy named Clint. Um, and he
was the one who who owns this this cabin
where we went to on uh uh I don't want
to [ __ ] up the name. I got it right
here, boys. I had I had to like open up
so many tabs so I don't [ __ ] up the
names of like places we went, but we
finished off the hike on uh Mate or
Mount Albert, Washington, and it's this
like huge peak. We didn't go all the way
to the top, but I would say I would say
five 5/8 of the way up. this this kid's
father or or sorry, excuse me, his
grandfather like bought a bunch of land
like back way back in the day where it
was probably like $5 per acre and and
they donated uh a lot of it back to like
the national park, but they were able to
keep this 13 acre like island that's
surrounded by Moat Lake. So you're like
we like literally hiked up to like six
hours into the mountains of this of this
area and you had to take a little boat
or you could have swam across but we had
all our bags and stuff. So they one of
them got over there and they took a boat
over and that's how we got onto the
island that had cabins where we finished
off the trip with this amazing group of
people we met. And so that was like I
felt like I had to smoke a bowl with him
before I left. Now keep in mind
the father or the kid?
No, the kid. the kid the kid brought all
of us up. And um yeah. Um so as far as
my drug use, I I took
I took
uh I did
and I did uh a bunch of variations of So
that was it was a bit of a journey.
Little weed, four other hard drugs. I
we're got this. We got this. But I
imagine this is all about the setting.
It was the setting. It was the setting.
And it it was is definitely magical
when they're on a hiking trail.
I don't even know.
What is that?
So, surprisingly,
horses are good in the mountains though, Keith.
Keith.
That's true.
Thankfully, I took a little bit like my
body was a little bit banged up. So, as
we started that hike, I probably did it
like an hour in
and like I couldn't feel my legs like in
a positive way where my back wasn't
sore. And I probably I I probably hiked
the whole thing with like a I would say
a 60 to 65 pound pack that had a bunch
of steaks and potato and food in it
along with like my clothing. So when you
do this like you got to
you brought potatoes the heaviest vegetable.
vegetable.
Well, it was it was these guys these
guys were going to be up there longer
than we were. Like their journey was
going to end up continuing. So why don't
I just start from the beginning of the
trip and then get to this part. So
yes. Um, we start we started everything
for peaking on the mainland. So, we went
around like Stanley Park and I got the
show. Wantton Don is who I'm doing this
project with. Uh, Cory is is like the
producer, videographer. He hikes with us
and like kind of a jack of all trades.
He helps edit it with Wanton. And then
we added uh Tyler, a kid like I I think
he's been with Bar Stool for less than a
year and he got added onto this one.
Like we filmed the original pilot in
Tennessee, but it was just me, Wanton,
and Cory. But because we were doing a
full week and it was such a grind, we
added this Tyler kid who was amazing.
And uh we had such a good forum. And so
the first priority was doing um the
grouse grind to kind of test Donniey's
shape. And I talk about doing the grind
all the time. I'm not going to give it
away, but he did pretty solid.
He posted a picture prior to the trip
shirt off next to you. You look pretty
ripped up. And he was I mean he was
getting crushed but but he called
himself out. He's like yeah I I it takes
a lot of balls to post himself. No no no
tarp on next to you. You're working out
six times a day. No
no no doubt. But I will give him a lot
of credit. He is in unbelievable hiking
shape. Like he's a he's a mule where you
would look at his body and be like oh no
he's probably not going to make it like
up to
Keith in hockey.
Kind of like Keith kind of. Well at
least when you started Keith I felt like
you slimmed out as your your career
progressed. Maybe you you watch the
diet. So, um but when we brought Watts
and Gloves on board, shout out to Watson
and Gloves cuz they were one of the two
sponsors that came on board and not only
did we get gloves for the entire trip
when we were like we they have gloves
for fishing, they have gloves for
[ __ ] hiking, uh we ended up mountain
biking, like downhill mountain biking on
the top of Gross Grind, which I think
that that's only been up there for a few
years and like that you can write rent
bikes up there and stuff like that. So,
um, yeah, like they Watson Gloves, one
of the guys who who works there, his his
daughter works for Gross Grant. So, they
were able to facilitate it and we also
then got to feed the two grizzly bears
that were at the top. They Now, people
are say, "Oh, why do they have grizzly
bears in captivity?" Well, they've been
there for I believe they're both turning
25 where uh both of their mothers were
killed when they were cubs. So, like
they wouldn't have survived. So now
those two wi the bears live on the top
of that gross mountain and they have
like their own area and then they feed
them and they they act like like normal
grizzly bears like they go hibernate for
like whatever four or five months during
the winter
and they don't come out.
So what's that?
They are normal grizzly bears.
Are you saying
Yeah. I just meant like even though
they're like they're they were they're
like orphans or however you want to call
them and they're in captivity. Maybe
some people might be like, "Oh, do they
just kind of hang out for the full 12
months cuz like you can go up there
during the winter time and ski and you
can always go check out the bears and
they're super friendly." So that was
like that was day one. And then the next
day we ended up going up to um Whistler
where Donnie had Donniey's really good
at researching and finding what hikes we
should do and he's good at like
siphoning through all the DMs that he's
getting and he chose to do this one that
was russet lake and you have to take
there's two ways to get up. There's more
of like a normal path which we didn't
want to go that way. So, we took the
gondola to a certain point and then that
was when we ended up jumping on the last
podcast. So, that's where like when
you're hiking up, you'll see like like
two different uh peaks where there's
glaciers on them. All of a sudden, you
see that Scottish looking golf course.
So, the type of terrain you're hiking on
and what you're seeing, it is so
stimulating where like one of the most
beautiful places I've ever seen in my
life. So I think it took us about 6 7
hours to finally get there and it was
like as the sun was setting and it was
unreal. They got this fresh lake up top.
You pitch your own tent. You cook your
own food and it's just like obviously
you made the potatoes
potato salad.
So actually we didn't we didn't we
didn't cook at that one. We brought like
dry food. So
So
save the potatoes for the last day so
you can just carry 60 lb.
No no no. We got those supplies the last
day, you [ __ ] [ __ ]
Is this when you had no water? And can
you maybe a really stupid question, can
you fill up and drink the water in like
the lakes there?
You get like tablets.
Yeah. Uh you they have these filters
that you could put on the top of your
water bottle. So when you sip out of it,
it filters the water. Fast forward
though, when we ended up at that Moat
Lake, buddy, we're swimming in the water
and you could drink it. It is the
[ __ ] cleanest water you've like it it
was ridiculous how fresh that water was.
Like I'm literally swimming in the water
and just like drinking water. Obviously
not hosing in it as you know sometimes
we tend to do. Um but going back to to
the russet lake thing and we're like
we're we just finished cooking dinner
and this is a stupid thing. I didn't
realize the moon moved. I just thought
like, oh, if we got a moon night, it's
going to be there in the sky and then
all of a sudden it's there and it
doesn't move and it stays in that spot
until the morning. Like, did you were
you aware that the moon moon rotated
around the earth?
Of course. And I'm not a very highly
educated human, but yeah, I knew that.
Yeah. But either way, so they have this
beautiful peak as we're we have the lake
to the right and we're finished cooking
and we're trying to set up our tent and
then all of a sudden boom, the most
beautiful moon I've ever seen in my
life. It was a completely full moon and
we just sat up there and they taught me
all about the solar system which I had
really no idea about. I also had
remember any of what they told you or
was it kind of like a conversation where
you're like I don't remember what we
went over?
No, I could we could break it down. Like
I was I was captivated by a lot of
conversations and actually the amount of
knowledge that Wanton Don and Cory and
and even Tyler have like um I didn't
know that like they basically kicked
Pluto out of our out of our solar system
like Pluto's on waiverss. Were you aware
of this?
Like for termination of the contract waiverss?
waiverss? Yeah.
Yeah.
Like they got sent down to the [ __ ]
cheese toast league.
Like you you could G can Google it up
and he could put it in the chat. So all
of a sudden we're minus one on a planet
that I had no idea about. Do you know
how long it would take to get to Pluto?
If you to if you took a spaceship
without moving my hands and looking up,
my my guess would be this could be very embarrassing.
embarrassing.
10 years.
Well, I was going to say the same thing.
I was going to say the same thing. I was
like I could be way off.
My first guess in my head was 200 years. No.
No.
And I was like, I think that's crazy.
So, I went to 10.
9 and a half years it would take to get
to Pluto if you were on a ship.
Guys who've been on waiverss know each
other's thoughts, you know, like I'm
close. I've been through that Pluto.
Okay, so here's another one though. To
get out of our solar system, guess how
long it would take until you got out.
Keep in mind, Pluto Pluto was the last
planet until they put it on waiverss.
You know how long it would take?
100 hours.
100 hours. You can't go from 9 and 1/2
years to 100 hours.
I meant 100 years. 100 years. Sorry, not hours.
hours.
No, no, what?
I think you were just going to say 30
35 years to get out of our solar system.
And like another thing like like so once
you get past that like there's obviously
probably other planets and all these
other [ __ ] galaxies and it just keeps
going and going and going. So just just
really learning about a lot of the
things that they were talking about were
it's infinite
infinite. So
and that can actually mess with your
mind if you think about it or it has
with me. You're like you can't wrap your
mind around it.
Yeah. And just talking about like how
like Elon wants to colonize Mars and how
that would even be possible. Um you know
certain planets have like multiple
moons. I like I I don't know if it was
they were talking I don't know if it was
Mars or maybe maybe it was Mercury like
that has like three or four moons. So,
just kind of learning about that type of
stuff, which boy is I have an OHL
education. I didn't really pay
attention. I mean, I [ __ ] took grade
nine geography in grade 12. It was just
cool to learn about it. Um, also learned
a lot about Teddy Roosevelt on the way
down, American President. This guy had
one of the most interesting lives of all
time. And I I I I'm forget most of what
Donnie was saying. I know that he saved
American football. He discovered uh like
he he um he um he had a lot to do with
preserving the national parks like where
he was such an outdoorsman.
I think I'd heard that before, but that
that would align with if you're saying
he had an interesting life and other
stuff. I believe I've heard at least
that a president saved the national
park. Maybe I didn't know it was him.
Yeah, he uh he was actually shot not
while he was president, but he was
giving a speech and the speech he wrote
was so long he folded up the paper and
it was so thick that the bullet went and
and the the speech saved his life. Did
were you aware of that?
The piece of paper like
Donnie was saying that the that the
piece of paper that and this is all
stuff that we're talking about on the on
the way down we were talking about. So,
I guess I kind of got a little bit
sidetracked, but shout out to Teddy
Roosevelt and like everything that he
provided the the way that Donnie
described him. Easily one of the best
presidents the United States have ever
had. Is he on one of the dollar bills?
No, I don't think so. I think so. Unfortunately,
Unfortunately,
how funny would it be if Donald lied to
Biz about all this stuff?
He is on Mount Rushmore.
Yes, he should be. He
This guy sounds like a Mount Rushmore
type. He um unfortunately I believe his
mother and wife passed away on the same day
day
and like he would and then I think yeah
so he was obviously an extremely
resilient guy wanted to go to war um uh
himself um I think that his kid his kid
went to war and his kid passed away in
war and that's what kind of changed his
perspective on like on like fighting and
and going to war in itself. So, he just
kept going on with fact over fact over
fact about Teddy Roosevelt. And I was
just blown away by by um like how how
like I was how big of a [ __ ] man he
was. Uh he beat uh malaria when he was over
over
he he beat malaria when he was overseas
like uh um I think he was or not
overseas he was going through uh through
like the Amazon
and he ended up getting malaria and he
thought he was going to die there like
had a severe leg break and we basically
told this kid like just go on without me
let me die here and his kid was like
absolutely not. So the the the the
bangers that Donnie kept saying about
this guy, I'm like there's no way all
this happened to one person, especially
back then when like I life expectancy
was probably like 60 years old at the time.
time.
He only lived to be 60.
So he lived the life of a thousand men.
So Biz, do you ever have the thought
when when you cuz I I've hung out with
Donnie, great guy.
Is there any part of you that wishes you
knew more about a bunch of stuff? cuz I
don't know anything about anything. I do
enjoy meeting people and getting to
spend time and hearing things like the
way you're describing he's telling you
about all these different things. I love
that. I just wish sometimes I could give
people things. I got nothing. You want
to talk about hockey or golf? I got you.
Uh that's not true. You're you're
knowledgeable about a lot of stuff like
you're you're being a little bit
I could never teach about Teddy Roosevelt.
Roosevelt.
I I know. And and I think there's a a a
few if not a lot of people from Bar
Stool that are just very knowledgeable
especially when it comes to history like
those uh rediscovering America guys
um like Nikki Clicky KB uh wantton Cory
who helps with that show like they're
just like well-versed and well read and
I think that this trip
like we remember how we joked about
reading a couple pods ago and how I need
to start reading. I think that this has
definitely like captivated my interest
in learning a lot more about history and
just being able to like have dialogue
about this crazy [ __ ] that's happened in
our past for us to even be able to, you
know, live the lives that we live. Um
like we were talking about um like the
like the ice age and all that type of
stuff. I won't go too too deep into that
right now, but um but long story short,
we we hiked down and and it was about a
6-hour journey, but we went the other
way. So, we went the hard way up to
Rustet Lake and then down like the quote
unquote easier leg. But for anybody
who's hiked long distances, the way down
is the pain in the ass because it really
[ __ ] up your knees.
And then we spent the night in uh in
Whistler. Uh brought the boys for for a
real nice dinner. And then the next day
it was off to uh to the island where we
take we took the BC ferry from Horseshoe
Bay over to Ni Naimo which is pretty
much like halfway up island on the
interior side. And it was cool because
they got to experience taking that ferry
and the and the beautiful sights out of
um um Horseshoe Bay. And if if like you
guys have never you've never been to
Whistler, have you
Yans? No.
There's a there's there's a there I
figured you hadn't went, but there's
this sea to sky highway that on the way
up and down where you're just seeing all
these different mountain ranges, whether
it's like Pender Island and all these
different islands on off of the coast of
of the mainland of BC. So, it's one of
the most renowned beautiful highways, I
would say, at least in North America, if
not the world. And then when we got to
Nimo, we drove straight up to to a place
called Tofino. Now, Tofino is is a a a
town of 2500 people with, but it's
almost like unescribable. It it it like
it has like the Pacific Northwest um
vegetation, but it feels like you're in
like kind of like Hawaii. And I I posted
a video of it on on Twitter and then and
then on Instagram. I don't know if you
guys had the ability to check it out,
but it's also one of the best uh remote
um surfing places in the world. And um I
don't even Are we dropping Tyson Barry
for the interview today? Yes.
Yes.
Okay. Just so Tyson Barry put me in
touch. He goes up there all the time.
Like we're neighbors here in in Oak Bay
in Victoria. He put me in touch with the
the goat of Canadian surfing named Pete
Dere. So we were able to link up with
him. We went to this Long Beach surf
shop. These guys had reached out even
prior. Completely took care of us. Got
us our boards, our wets suits. Unreal
guys. Like their kids play hockey. Got
to spend a little time with them getting
to know their staff. And then we got to
go like I I'd been surfing one time, but
I couldn't even get on the board. But we
got to go with the Canadian Goat and and
Donnie who surfed before and surf in one
of the most remote places in the world
to surf. And
how big are these waves? They like some
of them were getting to like eight to 10 feet.
feet.
Oh, so legit. Yeah.
Oh, yeah. Legit.
I'm I'll save it for the video. I don't
How cold was the water?
The water's cold, so you got to wear a
wet suit. But those wet wet suits I I
went in later that night like no suit
cuz I like getting in the cold water at
least for a little bit. But those suits,
although restricting, they keep you
warm. It's basically like you're a
[ __ ] like a seal.
Um, and we did that in Cox Bay. Um, and
then there's like a little like little
micro hike. It takes about 15 minutes to
get up and then you get the view of the
entire uh little bay there. And I just
got to like obviously there's a lot of
people to thank like obviously Pete
Deere's like Long Beach surf shop but my
friend Mike Mai who married my good
friend Cal Connor's uh sister Sophie
like they gave us their place on the
water in Tofino like this unbelievable
shack for the for the 3 days that we
were there. So we were right on the
beach with that view that you guys saw
on the live stream. So we got completely
dialed in. Um, and then the next day we
got hooked up through uh Dan Ham, who's
former hockey player. He owns um a
restaurant and like a a marina in Tofino
and they got this restaurant there
called Shelter that he owns with a
couple guys. So, we end up going out
with this guy. He puts us in touch with
Lance. We go to this unreal remote
fishing spot that's probably like 354
minutes off the dock. Um, and we go
salmon fishing. will not uh spoil any of
that. Obviously, we caught some. And
then in that little where the marina is
in that bay area,
two, three times a year, you might see
orcas in there. Orca whales.
Sure as [ __ ]
buddy. We [ __ ] dock the boat. We go
up to shelter. The Brazilian chef was
kind enough to take the fish that we
just caught. He He cooks it up for us.
And in the midst of him cooking it,
cooking it, the a couple Chicklets fans
who were on other boards boats, they
were telling Donnie like, "Yo, there's
orcas out there cuz they saw a big blood
spill cuz they just killed like a like
um like a whatever like a sea lion or
something, right? That's how they eat.
They [ __ ] kill those things." And and
sure enough, there was like a pack of
four or five of them. So me and Donnie
get back on the boat with Lance. We go
out there and we get to [ __ ] watch
these killer whales from from like you
can't get too close. It's like they
don't want you the Coast Guard like
they'll come at you and and so we got to
see [ __ ] killer whale whales on our
trip. Like what what are the chances? So
we get lucky with just all this weather
and all this timing. The fact that this
place was willing to cook up this food
for us. We get back, we have this
unbelievable fresh salmon meal with
risoto prepared for us. It was just like
it it was it was top tier. And so this
is so uh that was kind of like the the
last like special part of Tofino. So we
had to leave the next day where we were
going to do this lone cone trail in
Tofino to end it all off because hiking
is the premise of the show where we want
to do a big hike. So this um guy named
Tyler Turner Whit and Yans he's um like
a a a par how do you say like a a
parolympian like where he he
so he he he lost his legs in a skydiving
accident and yeah just he tough tough
bounce like I don't know if he pulled
the chute too late and he he lost both
of his legs and um he was having a very
difficult time like after it all
happened and this former uh football
player a retired guy. His name is David
Vabbora. And I don't know if you've
heard of this guy. He was Mr.
Irrelevant. He was drafted last overall
the year he was drafted to the Rams.
Played five years in the NFL. And
[ __ ] that's a legit career.
Legit career.
Big played five years.
Played five years. And he he was telling
me stories how I didn't realize Mr.
Irrelevant, like they bring you to
Disneyland. Like they they kind of treat
you like you're the first Yeah. They
kind Yeah. Mr. irrelevant. The last
draft in the last pick in the draft
every year in the NFL, they like treat
you to this like weekend with your
family. Like they fly you around and
it's kind of like funny. I think they
present you with a trophy but not like
the Heisman, the guys fumbling the ball.
Like it it's [ __ ] it's it's
hilarious. He was explaining all this.
So his last year in the NFL with he blew
out his shoulder bad and he ended up
getting addicted to opiates and
obviously eventually turned his life
around and like he he needed to find his
next purpose and uh he started this
charity and it's called Adaptive
Training Foundation where he he has a
gym in Dallas, Texas and he takes people
there's two I didn't realize how many
people um lose limbs every year and and
you know uh what's the what's the term
I'm looking for when you when you lose a limbation
limbation
ampute 250,000 of them a year um that
happens right and he has this foundation
where it's all funded where they take
the people who have gone through this
and the these like unfortunate events
they bring them there for nine weeks
they train them they they teach them how
breathing um how to recover and just
completely take them out of their world
and the dark place that they're in and
and rehabilitate them to provide them
like like you know the tools to to
continue their life and and change
Powerful stuff.
It was an emotional trip um at the end.
So this Tyler Turner kid where when that
happened to him, this David reached out
to him and at first Tyler was like,
"Yeah, yeah, buddy. [ __ ] former NFL
guy. He has handsome guy. Has everything
going for him. Yeah. Yeah. You're going
to [ __ ] turn my life around cuz he
was such in the dumps about being paralyzed.
paralyzed.
And then finally went down there and
completely changed his life and and got
him back into shape. Four and a half
year years later, he ends up winning a
gold for team Canada at the Parolympics
on a snowboarding. Wow.
Wow. And
And
wow, what a story, dude.
Incredible. So this Tyler Turner reaches
out to me via DM because he heard on the
podcast he listens to Chicklets about
connecting with us because
through that foundation he stayed
involved with this uh David Babbora and
this other kid from the island that
Tyler knew he was he was doing wheelies
and he went the wrong way and he got hit
by a truck and ended up losing his leg.
Same same thing. He was in a dark place.
Tyler says, "Buddy, we're going to hook
you up with this David guy. We're going
to go down to Texas. We're going to
rehabilitate you and and get you get
your confidence back and get you on the
right track. So,
like I was in the same place, man. Like just
just
same [ __ ] place. Same [ __ ] place. So,
So,
they they always have like a oh [ __ ]
goal um after their nine weeks, right?
And their goal was to get to the top of
this uh Mount Albert, Washington, which
is um it's uh Mount Albert Edward in uh
Strath Kona Provincial Park on Vancouver
Island near Mount Washington Alpine
Resort. So that we actually went to the
resort to start this whole hike and they
were these guy like he he lost one leg.
Tyler's got no legs and they wanted to
hike all the way to the top of this
mountain. Um, there's a picture of the
whole group, right? That's their that's
their group of guys. And the the guy in
the far right here, he he was a former
NFL player. He ended up playing with
with David um in Minnesota. So, he helps
out at that gym down there. Um, and
obviously there's a few other amputees
that were would join us. The one guy
there is Clint who owns the the the the
camp like the lodge up on that Moat
Lake. Um, and so like obviously he knew
Tyler. So they set this whole thing up
where we were going to hike up together
to that Moat Lake and that was going to
be the end of our journey cuz these
other guys had to get back but they were
going to continue. though. Um, this
Chase kid who's also a Chicklets fan, we
and through Tyler reaching out instead
of doing this lone cone hike in in
Tofino, we're like Donnie is
facilitating the whole thing via text
while I'm driving and we end up linking
up with these guys and going to this
resort and we did the hike up to this Mo
Lake with him and just kind of learn
about this whole story and this David
Babbora guy and what he's doing and and
what he's providing these people as much
as he can, right? like he he raises the
money and everything is paid for. They
fly these guys down. He personally
trains them for the nine weeks like and
he just you know becomes a massive part
of their life not only for that nine
weeks but forever and and so you know we
did that hike we got to spend some time
with them. Obviously, there was a day in
between for them to eventually peak and
get to the top because they they had to
get rest because
boys, it's it's like it's hard on their
bodies, right? Like they [ __ ]
[ __ ]
buddy. Like like like Tyler, he's like I
can't even like externally rotate my my
legs. So they're like kind of like
swinging it around.
So it just like like for me personally
like just like getting to hear these
stories and and like like you know puts
a a lot into perspective, right? like so
so makes you like so grateful dude and
oh it was
and like the feeling of the [ __ ] that
you complain about not you anyone or
like bothers you and then you're like
that's I mean I've never wanted to watch
something more than this biz I can't
wait to see this I could tell it it was
a trip of a lifetime for you based on
kind of what you were saying and then
your tweet today even like you put that
out there I'm like Oh, this meant a lot
to him to be to kind of describing it
that way on Twitter.
Yeah. And it just, you know, obviously
it was going to be fun and we're going
to do all these amazing things, but just
for it to like naturally take that
course and of course like um Tyler
Turner like for reaching out and and
facilitating all that and like kind of
just allowing us to have that experience
like it was meant to be and it was it
was a life-changing trip and yeah, I'm
I'm really looking forward to everyone
seeing it and as like as like sad as
this is and and me crying at the end and
how emotional it is and also like we had
to say bye to them and we We each gave
him like a, you know, our peeking shirt.
Like I was I was sobbing like I can't,
you know me, I'm an emotional guy. I
can't keep it together. And probably
didn't help that I just finished a a
bong rip and I really get my feels when
I smoked the weed, but I had to do one
with Clint cuz he's the one. It's his
family's cabin and he did it all and it
was kind of like an honor. I'm back off
the weed, folks. Don't worry. Okay.
Okay.
But uh yeah, like I there's there's so
many laughs along the way. There's so
many twists and turns. Like there's so
many characters we end up meeting. So,
um, I hope I didn't forget anyone along
the way who who like helped us and and
were a big part of that trip. So,
when's it going to come out, you think?
I think that it's probably going to take
uh probably take at least a month, if
not like 6 weeks to edit, and then it'll
be a two episode season 1 of Peaking.
And, uh, this is going to be the start
of something special. And um, we're I
think we're going to have to go to
Dallas for a Pink Whitney event. I would
love to go with you guys to to David
Babbora's gym and just kind of create
more awareness and no doubt.
Yeah. To this um I I want to make sure I
say the name one more time of it. It's
uh the adaptive training foundation
and uh and what they're doing is is just
[ __ ] amazing, dude. And I can't
imagine the place that these guys are in
when those tragedies first happen about
lo, you know, losing limbs, losing both
your legs and thinking like your life's
never going to be the same to then like
turning around where buddy this Tyler
Turner, he's he [ __ ] base jumps, he
[ __ ] skydives, he snowboard, like
nothing's holding these guys back after
they get with David. And it was um it
was magical. So I know I've been
long-winded, boys. I appreciate you
letting me talk about all this and um
you know
amazing rundown.
Yeah. I I love you boys. like the videos
that or the pictures and videos you sent
us like your smile like you know you're
happy in pictures and you know whenever
we're taking pictures but like your
genuine smile on that trip and to hear
you give that breakdown and we all know
you have the biggest heart in the world
and you do anything for anyone and it's
it's honestly it was like the first time
I've ever been like oh my god this guy
is in such a [ __ ] good place right I
wish I like I really wish I was with you
although I would never go hiking but
I was going to say maybe We get the
look. Maybe there's a there's a chicklet
peeking crossover and we do one of
these, Keith. They'll try to bury us.
You'll do that Blue Hill and around the
corner from your house.
I do that with the kids once a week. We
rip up Blue Hill.
So, we we we do feature a micro hike in
that Cox Bay which is 15 minutes. So,
it's kind of funny in the midst of doing
these massive ones where you just do the
small one. Like we were even talking
about like Frank's been doing the Frank
walks like let's get [ __ ] Frank on
one of these and Yan's we're eventually
going to head to the the New England
area to do it and
New England.
Isn't it called New England?
Yeah, it's just I think you said the New
England. It just cracks me up. It made I
said the New England area.
Oh, okay.
Where is their good hike? Like Vermont,
New Hampshire. Is there good hiking?
They have one in Maine and they have, I
believe, one in New Hampshire. And
they're two of the the
more challenging and and biggest peaks
in the United States. And I believe he
said the one in
is it called Mount Washington?
Yeah, that's the one in New Hampshire.
You see the bumper stickers everywhere.
This car climbed Mount Washington. It's
like big deal. Why do you have that
bumper sticker on the back?
And and I think that like I I get what
you're saying, an I think that some
people might be like, well, hiking's a
little boring for me and it's just not
my thing. For me, like I'm just like
with our jobs, we're so much on our
phone and in technology and stress and
like, you know, flying around TNT, like
trying to juggle all these things. Like
for me, it just kind of gives me a
reset. And for that, you know, that
probably 30 to 35 hours, like I have no
service. So, it's just good sometimes to
just get away and like, you know, the
people trying to reach out to you can't
get to you. And it almost forces you to
just kind of be in the moment and live
in the in in the present. And, you know,
I have a difficulty doing that. and and
and that's what what what hiking
provides for me along with, you know,
some some some form of workout. So, um
yeah, just uh
great trip.
Yeah, magical week. Appreciate you boys
letting me break it down and and
appreciate everybody listening letting
me break that down. But shout out to
David and dude, I love you boys. It's a
it's a very it's it's a you just put on
an alltime Oscar worthy trailer.
That's what I'm going to say. A video
that just makes makes me want to tune
in. So, good video. want to watch the
show tomorrow though and not in a month
like that that hurts.
Can I wrap up a couple things Biz quick?
Yeah. And then I was just going to say
thank you to Watson Gloves who I don't
know how many new listeners we have.
Like they allowed me in the past to do
two commercials where they gave us Carl
Blanche where we could like say jokes
that like typical brands won't let you
drop. So I don't know how many of you
have seen those. And then and I hope
they get involved with the podcast with
I'll send you guys these these protein
pucks. They're just like an all
naturatural source of of um like uh
protein, carbohydrates, and fats. And un
they taste unbelievable. And just so
happens are called protein puck. And it
was this random guy that I met in
Scottsdale um at the global ambassador
where he's like, "Hey yo, I saw that
fight you were on on on news." And then
he came up and we became buddies. So he
owns the company. And so thank you for
to those two brands for facilitating
that. And uh yeah, that's all I got. I
think one of the most valuable things
you did learn on that trip was that the
moon rotates around the earth and chat
GPT says that uh
you learned that in fourth grade on
average. So
I love that you know that
I thought that I know I I knew the sun
did or no does the sun rotate around the
earth or do we rotate around the sun?
I believe we rotate around the sun and
[ __ ] I don't even know if I'm right on
that. [ __ ] I I'm just going to shut up
on the solar system.
We rotate around the sun. I I had that
one. [ __ ] Okay. Biz. Teddy Roosevelt. I
mean, the first American to win the
Nobel Peace Prize, which he received in 1906
1906
for mediating a peace agreement to end
the Russia Japanese war. That's big
time. So,
big time.
I I I I just I can't wait to check all
this stuff out. Um, in the hockey world,
Biz, have you have you kind of heard
anything? you know what's going on or
are we going to be able to
I got a couple thing I got a couple
things I want to say cuz I missed the
big chatter last week about uh um
McDavid all the McDavid like like
my opinion is is I want people to stop
asking him about signing. I want you to
leave him the [ __ ] alone at least till
after the Olympics. Leave Conor McDavid
alone. He's got bigger fish to fry. He's
going to win our country a gold medal.
So any of you American reporters, when
he's on the road this season, I don't
want to [ __ ] hear you asking about
him extending, he's going to focus on
this year, I don't care if they're out
of a playoff spot by the time the
Olympics rolls around. Let him focus on
winning a gold medal. And the same goes
for all those Crosby rumors. I don't
want to hear I don't want to hear about it.
it.
You invented them.
Stop living in the past. I don't want to
hear a [ __ ] thing about Crosby moving
on. Paper may is even talking about a
little bit. Crosby, leave him alone till
after the Olympics. I want them focusing
on winning a gold. Enough with all this.
I will say the theme going in right now
is all the stars around the league,
right? McDavid not signed, maybe Crosby
on the move, all of a sudden this Capri
off rumor slash I don't really know if
it's a rumor. Uh Bill Garren putting out
that fire. Uh we all know that Quinn
Hughes is it's it's a that's a ticking
that's a ticking time bomb, right? like
Quinn Hughes is leaving, right?
Uh that one we can get into that that's
an it is all the studs. It's kind of NBA
style and I absolutely love it. The big
dogs are in the news. And in fairness in
fairness, these guys, a lot of them like
they're they haven't even done or or
said anything. Like Quinn Hughes has
asked about playing with his brother.
Like that's the been the most overblown
thing ever. McDavid just hasn't signed a
contract. Capri off hasn't signed a
contract either. They're in the news,
but they really haven't done anything to
No, no. Time out. Quinn Hughes is American.
American.
Like they're doing bad things.
Quinn Hughes is American, so I'm going
to be talking about that every
Okay, we're going straight Olympic. He
You were in Canada in the woods and
you've just found this new national
pride that's just taking over your
taking over your like fandom within the
NHL. You're just all based on Canada
winning a gold
until after the Olympics. You know, you
know Theodore Roosevelt was American, right?
right?
Doesn't mean I don't respect what he did
as a president.
You also know that that has nothing to
do with it.
You also know that
I know he's I know he's going to be
disappointed with you guys not winning
the gold, but
but
No, it sounds like you're wor It sounds
like you're worried about the Americans
cuz you want everyone to leave your
Canadians alone and then bring the heat
on our Americans.
Yeah. You're trying to slow us down.
No, I don't I don't need to bring the
heat. They're bringing it on themselves.
We got [ __ ] Lane Hudson's old man
talking about trying to move over to
Canada. Like this is bringing it on themselves.
themselves.
You guys are self-destructing before the
He's not on the team. He's not on You're
bringing up the American media with
McDavid. Yeah, that that they're they're
the problem when this gets out of hand
when he's asked every day. Although he's
going to say, "I'm not answering any
questions once the season starts if he
hasn't signed." But Biz, the the Crosby
rumors, we're dropping an unreal
interview with Tyson Barry. It's great.
In that interview, you you bring up the
Crosby rumors. So, this is a new post
peak in season 1 biz. This was this we
did this interview like 10 days ago.
That's living in the past and I'm no
longer there. Okay.
Okay.
I just said that this hike reset me on
living in the present and that's what
we're going to do. We're not going to
live in the past.
Okay. I'm learning. I'm adapting. I'm
going to read. I'm going to read more.
So, a lot of new things around here.
Lifechanging trip. No more drama. Cross
to the halves. Halves or the abs?
I don't want to talk about that. You
almost got us close.
close.
We all know. We all know what's going to
happen cuz I've been saying it for
years, but we're not talking about it
until it does.
So, if it happens, do you not get the credit?
credit?
No, Keith. We get to talk about it and
he's going to sit there and listen. He's
going to at one point he won't be able
to not say what's on his mind. So, don't
worry. It'll be in the news. I mean, it
is crazy that it is somewhat being
discussed, biz, because when Bran comes
out and and here's the quotes. Uh, Bran
made headlines this week suggesting
Crosby could actually be traded. It's
always a possibility. You know, it's
been three years, they haven't made the
playoffs. It all depends on how Sid is
going to be and how the team is going to
do. Brassant said Crosby's under
contract. So, yeah, it's one of those
things. That's the hard part about it.
So I for him to he would I don't think
he would say that without talking to Sid
first, right? Like it's almost in my
mind like he might be the one that's
like speaking for him where Sid's
telling him I'm not
like Sid. Wait, Sid came out today and
said that he did not speak with Pat
Bersan before he made that statement.
Wow. That's that's just what Sid said.
That actually came out today. I missed that.
that.
I mean, if they're if they're horrible,
I respect the hell out of him if he
wants to stay there.
I think every hockey fan would feel a
little robbed. So, you know, I'm not
him. I'm just like giving would any any
hockey fan other than Penguins fans not
be absolutely fired up to see him on
another team that's competing for the
Stanley Cup and has a chance to go on a
run in the playoffs.
I I don't think so.
I think of it as the Ray Bour situation
even though Sid's already won a cup. But
yeah. Yeah. It's one of those things
everyone I think everyone in Pittsburgh
would be rooting for him just cuz he's
he's earned whatever he wants to do. if
he wants to stay, good on him. Like
playing for one team your whole career
would be incredible. And you know, to do
it the way he did it as well. But if he
wanted to go somewhere else, he has all
the rights to do that. And
I think it would be amazing. Like
imagine him going to a team that's like
not even like the number one team, a
team that's fighting to get in. He gets
them in. Like him in playoffs just
mucking it up. Like it would be amazing.
So it it's it's similar to Brady, but
even in in a better way for Sid that
that was just like the team was like,
"Hey, you know, they they lowballed him,
right? And then he's it finally ended.
All the stuff you've heard, Bellich,
Craft, Brady, the contracts,
he goes and wins." And every Patriots
fan was still rooting for him.
Sids would almost be like, "I I think
everyone would understand. I just I just
want to get one more cup. I've done.
We've done everything we possibly could
have done in in in these 20 years. But
as I prefaced it, if that guy is like, I
just want to be a Penguin my entire
career. I want to chase all the records.
I I he already has a statue. Then I I
would respect it. I would respect him
for it. But for Biz to think this isn't
going to be like a story. I mean, it's
probably one of the craziest things
you've ever heard. And if you do live in
the present, it's presently a story. So,
no no comment. Our
Our
our focus is on Milan. Okay.
Okay. I
I
All right. I can't wait for these
Olympics. Are we going? By the way,
100 I would go 100%.
Like 1,000% I would go there.
I wouldn't be shocked if Team Canada
flew me on their plane. I I think I
might be going over with the team. I
think they're going to probably add me
to the coaching staff. [ __ ] I mean, I'm
pretty tight with talking. I'll fly
underneath the [ __ ] plane. Just give
me like a tranquilizer pill or whatever
the [ __ ] they do.
You have that already?
Give me a couple Xanax or what? Is that
what they use to to to sleep on, you
know, Xanax? Is that what they use?
Biz, do you think do you think C uh
Malcin and Latang would be pissed at him
But my focus is on Milan.
[ __ ] I tried to get him.
Um, okay. So, Russia's not in the
Olympics, but Carell Capriovv's in the
news biz. You mentioned him. Apparently,
he turned down what would have been the
richest contract in NHL history. 8 years
times 16 million.
Then reports came out that
that he knows there's teams that are
willing to go 1920 million a year. [Music]
[Music]
He's got the other side of it where the
owner and I believe when the owner
originally had these comments about we
will we blank check. I think we might
have said at the time like oh I mean
this I mean this nobody has it better
than Capriov. So, if he's been saying that,
that,
I'm not that shocked he said no to that deal.
The cap's going.
I also and and this is like it's not a
it's not like a knock. I do feel like I
feel like the new wave of NHL superstar,
they kind of want to play in the big
smoke more. Like they want like Hey,
there was that photo that came out. He
was hanging out with uh Shurkin in New York.
York.
That that picture was a basketball.
Oh, that was a fake photo. I got I got duped.
duped.
I don't think it was fake. I just think
it was from like two three years ago
from May of 2023. Yeah.
Yeah.
Okay. So, that was sent to the group
chat and like then I was on my hike. So,
I kind of maybe didn't get the text that
that was an old photo. So, somebody was
trying to stir it up online being like,
"Oh, he's playing tummy sticks with the
R rangers. This is tampering." blah blah
blah blah blah. I would just
I would just assume that some of these
guys like want to play in in bigger
markets. Now I I Billy Garren said that
that's it's not true and that it got out
and that they didn't offer him that
contract. Like that's basically what
Billy G said, right? Like this is not
true. I just think it's common knowledge
that whatever the 20% or the max is a
player could sign for for eight years
that is being offered to him. Like they
are begging him to sign that right now.
So whether they did it when people
speculated it or it was 4 months ago
it's that's happened. Like he has been
offered that and he hasn't currently
signed that. I also think that
I think that there's so many superstars
coming up in free agency and all of a
sudden the cap is jumping the way that
it's jumping. It's just created a whole
another mess for some of these teams to
try to be like ah
no one and and player I don't think a
player wants to be the first to go.
So that's also what's being talked about
is is these other the basically these
guys are waiting for the first domino to
fall and then it'll just set the
precedent and then boom over that over
that over that. So
you I mean you you could go under it a
little bit depending on the player
but if you go first and all of a sudden
like guys that that you're you're
in your own mind saying I'm as good as
this guy like I deserve what he's making
and he's making two three million more.
You're like, now that goes back to the
argument of like how many hundred the
Merles, how many hundreds of millions do
you need? You know, like if you did if
he if he really likes Minnesota, like I
don't think Wild fans should be
panicking. I I think that he's probably
just going to maybe be say, "All right,
so if he if he likes Minnesota, he's
just going to go back to them and say
like, give me this."
So, let me ask you this. Is
and they have to now
given the fact that he's got one year
left on his deal. Same thing with
McDavid. Can like what at what point do
they have to wait till does it have to
be after July 1st to where that new that
new money hits as far as what the cap is
to or based on the fact that they the
deal wouldn't start till next year. They
can still give them that amount now cuz
at a certain point like let's say
currently that the most that you could
make as an individual player on a team
because you're capped at I believe 20%.
Let's say right now that 20% based on
the cap is like somewhere in that 16 to
18 range. I don't know what the exact
number is, but once July 1st hits, is
that when now they can offer them
whatever that new cap number will be
or could they sign that right now
because that deal wouldn't kick in till
next year anyway?
Or do they say you could sign a
percentage of what the cap is next year
right now? Like I I see what that's what
you're asking, right?
Yeah. Is is is also that maybe why like
remember Elliot Freeman would probably
have this researched and know it. I
haven't really gone through the
collective bargaining agreement. You
know, maybe I should catch up on my
reading with that instead of [ __ ]
about Teddy Roosevelt first, but I don't
like at what point does that number hit?
And if if these guys have to wait till
next summer in order to finally get that
three4 million jump, that's it's worth
the wait, man. Because
wouldn't wouldn't they just say that though?
though?
No, because hockey players hockey
players aren't like that. It's the same
reason why part of the reason they might
be waiting for that first domino to fall
is so they're not being labeled as
greedy for taking that 18 19% of what
the cap is, right? So if McDavid is
waiting for Capri off to to that domino
to fall and let's say Capri off which I
heard the same thing you guys like
there's I heard there's a few teams and
I I think Caprioff's chasing the
absolute top dollar and McDavid might
not be that guy where he does leave a
little a little crumb extra for the rest
of the guys as opposed to taking that
full 20%. But like if Capri off takes
it, McDavid doesn't look as bad taking
it cuz like nobody would everyone's
going to be like, "Fuck, he's [ __ ] the
same as Capri off. What a hometown
discount that team's getting." So part
of it is waiting for that number to be
larger and and also part of it is I
believe public perception. But this is
the last thing I will say about McDavid
given the fact that it is Canada
related. We all know what's going to
happen. He's going to play out the year
and then he's coming to the Toronto
Maple Leaf. But we're not talking about
it anymore. Okay.
None. We're done.
I saw Marner uh was playing in the
Vegas. I don't know. It was the Golden
Knights, maybe their sponsor golf event
when the players always play. And he had
a sick move on him. Nice swing.
And I honestly I just figured like
they're out every year early. Like no
wonder he's got a great swing. is who
who
you know Mner
Mner who?
who? MNER.
MNER.
Mner cuz you know who he played for
past couple years? Toronto.
Toronto.
I you know what I I I
was hard on Mner and I'm like honestly
my I'm just happy that Why are you
laughing? I'm just genuinely happy he's
out of that circus for himself for his
own sake. I think that that he didn't
help his own situation where
the like the money that he commanded out
of his entry level and if he would have
signed for a million and a half less
but they offered it to him. What
What
that money like he didn't like they
offered him that contract.
How do you say no?
I'm saying originally I'm saying like
I'm happy he's out of Toronto. It sucks
what he dealt with [ __ ] being there
but I'm happy that he's gone. But yes,
going back to his golf swing, I'm sure
it's great. He's hanging out in Mscoa
[ __ ] in and you know, he's there by
the beginning of June cuz he ain't
playing. He's [ __ ] there middle of
May for crying out loud.
Biz, um, are there any uh big deal
selects? Is there any news in that world?
world?
Um, we're going to keep things internal
right now for right now. I did hear that
one of the Boston Stranglers who was
invited to the tournament
asked if Chicklets could fly his
girlfriend in for the tournament as
well. Now, I don't know exactly where
the Boston Strangers focus are is coming
into this ball hockey tournament, but
I'll tell you this. If one of our
players thought about flying in his girl
during these very intense two days of
ball hockey, I don't think he'd be
seeing the ball hockey court. Now,
that's the difference between you and I
know what my players need. I know some
guys, you know, might need their old
lady in town to not go out at night.
Like Terry Ryan could probably use an
old lady in town. And Terry Ryan Ryan
Senior could probably use an old lady in town.
town.
I'm sure he's got a I'm sure Terry
Ryan's got a few.
Yeah. So,
but he ain't he ain't flying them in.
Well, hey, you you manage your team like
you do and keep losing first round like
the [ __ ] Leafs and your golf swing
will be like Marner soon enough. But
yeah, it's it's whatever my team wants.
And I think it's unfair that you uh
wouldn't pay for them seeing that your
whole team is getting flown in. But um
it's all right. It's fine. I'll pay for it.
it.
Wow. Okay. Interesting.
Very true. Keith,
wait. You're You're okay with that? I
feel like we're talking time out.
I think that this is hypocritical cuz if
you found out one of my players was
trying to fly in their girl, I think I
would be getting scalded. So, I feel
like this is an absolute double standard.
standard.
I don't I don't think I'd say a word
about that guy getting away with his
wife. Maybe they have kids and you know,
I'm going to play this ball hog tour.
I'm going go to a great city in Boston
and catch a
catch a game, go on a duck tour, you
know, and and you get to watch me do
something I love. And it's like
it's kind of one of those family things,
B. I don't know if you know, but they
fly in
they fly in the wives when the team can
win the Stanley Cup.
They fly in the families. And it's it's
interesting for me to to hear you be
like, "Yeah, we're just the boys [ __ ]
getting after it in Boston. Yeah, we
lose every year, but we party hard." And
there's another team that's like, I want
my family around when I get a a title in
a beautiful city against a complete
clown, Paul Besonette.
Well said, right.
I I I really really think you guys would
be singing a different tune if this role
was reversed, but I guess go with
whatever go with whatever narrative you want.
want. Yeah,
Yeah,
I know where our focus is at and the big
deal selects are all business. Uh Con
man, who I was very critical of last
year. I'll give you guys a little
update. He's running every [ __ ] day.
Con man's in the best shape of his life.
And when that's the case, he's gonna be
[ __ ] sniping game in game out. And we
got our first line superstar back.
And I thought he was a D man.
No offense.
He's a He's a forward nifty.
He's a cherry picker.
Cherry big redhead.
No, that's Pender. Pender's got bigender.
bigender.
You haven't even been studying. What?
You haven't been watching game tape?
Your your games aren't [ __ ] even
televised because you guys are in the
losers bracket every year. Chicklets
doesn't even drop you guys. It's
Merles's team versus [ __ ] Patrick
Sharp. Beat it.
Uh, hey, Spit and Chicklets YouTube
channel. Over 400,000. Go watch some
game tape. It's on the vlog.
Is that what we're at now, Biz? 400,000.
Oh, we're over 400k, bro.
Hey, we're on tile, too, Biz, which is huge.
huge. What?
What?
We're on tile, too. It's not cement.
What? We got the quartz.
Yep. That's that that's all of them have
quartz this year.
No. So, uh, Roller A and Street A will
have uh MS3 surface, which you got to
give a shout out to Bobby Hower, member
of the Big Deal Selects. His family owns
the company. He said, "No more." He
said, "We're bringing in the Big Deal
Selects need a nice surface, so we're
bringing in some surface."
That was the only chance. I've been
hearing about this surface since the
beginning of time with this tournament
and they've all said
all the big deal select said if we ever
had a good surface we would be drumming
everyone. So
we're going to run the table now that
was that with Yan's team we they would
have wanted to play in a gravel pit.
We could uh we could use this guy in net
for one of the teams. I I would take him
for sure with Mark Andre Flurry. I don't
know if you saw Did you see the picture
that was sent to the group chapters of all
all
Yeah. him in his three rings with the
robe on
and the trophy. Yeah, he just he signed
a PTO with the Pens. I love that. I love
that move. That's an old school move
back in the day. Thinking of an old
baseball player signing a one-day
contract. Actually, Rizzo did it, too.
Did you see that, Keith?
Did you see almost catch the ball?
That would have been the most insane on
a on a Anthony Rizzo day. He goes to the
bleachers to drink a beer and a home run
comes directly. It hit him in the hand.
I I he caught that. But he bought the
entire stadium a beer. Seriously?
Seriously?
Yeah. I saw I I saw something like they
were people were giving out tickets. I
don't know. It was the entire stadium.
That's thanks to Bob does sports cuz all
the money that we took off from that day
playing golf. So Bob paid for those
beers. Uh unre if he had caught that
would have been unbelievable. Like
but did you see one thing I saw? He had
all the people in the stand sign his
jersey that he has. Like that was cool.
like you could tell he just really loved
being a part of that team. Yeah.
Yeah.
Baseball would be in my opinion the the
most fun pro sport to play as far as I
want to say they don't have pressure cuz
you got to [ __ ] get up there and you
got to hit the ball but just that like
the downtime not as strenuous on the
body uh laidback. You're always in the
clubhouse with the boys. You're you're
in each city for 4 days. You're not just
in and out. So that would be that would
be an absolute blast. And you've hung
out with him yet. He just seems like the
best guy. He kind of like looks like a
little bit like Brooks Kepka to me. Like Yeah.
Yeah.
Doesn't he?
Yeah, he does.
Yeah. But uh what like what's the
funniest thing about him? Like what's
like on the golf course? Is he a chirper?
chirper?
Not really. He's pretty quiet. Yeah.
Just stand. I mean he's just like any
other athlete. He's chirping. He's
saying, you know, he hits a good shot.
He's like, "Yeah, you know, like come
on. I played in the bigs for 15 years.
Like you got to expect things like But
yeah, no, he's very humble, laid-back
guy. He was actually he was my neighbor
down here for a while, so I've known him
for a bit. He was telling a funny story.
Like I had a boat and I know nothing
about boats. Like I had never even been
on a boat before I bought it. And one
day I apparently I was on the lift and
he was like out in his backyard watching
me cuz I told him I'm like, "Yeah, I'm
getting a boat. I know nothing about him." All of a sudden the boat was still
him." All of a sudden the boat was still on the lift, but I had the engine on and
on the lift, but I had the engine on and I'm revving the engine. He's like, "What
I'm revving the engine. He's like, "What the [ __ ] is this kid?" He was like, "Me
the [ __ ] is this kid?" He was like, "Me and my wife stood out there for like 15
and my wife stood out there for like 15 minutes laughing at you and hoping you
minutes laughing at you and hoping you didn't die." I'm like, "Yeah, it's not

like a hundred foot yacht, you know, couple decks and then they put it in and
couple decks and then they put it in and it [ __ ] sinks. It I guess it's a

before we get into some topics that you might have had, we did forget to bring
might have had, we did forget to bring up the Hughes brothers. So, you give us
up the Hughes brothers. So, you give us your basically your uh your idea or your
your basically your uh your idea or your thought on where they'll be, if they'll
thought on where they'll be, if they'll ever play together. Um,
ever play together. Um, I have heard rumblings
I have heard rumblings that someone in the family
that someone in the family wants them to be Rangers.
wants them to be Rangers. Oo, New York Rangers. I depending on how
Oo, New York Rangers. I depending on how the next year goes, maybe you could give
the next year goes, maybe you could give it two years, I would assume that they
it two years, I would assume that they just all end up and stay in in New
just all end up and stay in in New Jersey. I think it's just going to be I
Jersey. I think it's just going to be I I think it's it's inevitable because
I think it's it's inevitable because like Luke's going to be offered this
like Luke's going to be offered this like monstrous entry level or deal out
like monstrous entry level or deal out of entry level.
of entry level. Well, when's he going to sign?
Well, when's he going to sign? Jack's got what probably like four to
Jack's got what probably like four to five years left on that eight-year deal.
five years left on that eight-year deal. Yeah. Check it.
Yeah. Check it. And then
And then my assumption is is the Conucks are
my assumption is is the Conucks are going to be like, "Listen, what do you
going to be like, "Listen, what do you want to do?" And they have to want to
want to do?" And they have to want to get a boatload in return because you
get a boatload in return because you can't lose them for nothing. And if it
can't lose them for nothing. And if it were to happen, let's say in the second
were to happen, let's say in the second part of this season, if things aren't
part of this season, if things aren't going well for Vancouver, you get so
going well for Vancouver, you get so much more for him because he still has
much more for him because he still has next year on the deal. So to like get
next year on the deal. So to like get Twin Hughes at a $10 million cap hit for
Twin Hughes at a $10 million cap hit for half of this year, which I would imagine
half of this year, which I would imagine I would be shocked if the New Jersey
I would be shocked if the New Jersey Devils aren't a top four team in the
Devils aren't a top four team in the Eastern Conference by the time playoffs
Eastern Conference by the time playoffs hits. And to be able to add him for
hits. And to be able to add him for under 10 million or I believe he makes
under 10 million or I believe he makes does he what does he make nine and a
does he what does he make nine and a half or does he make 10?
half or does he make 10? Either way
Either way he will be able to to
he will be able to to if they can find a way to get Douggee
if they can find a way to get Douggee Hamilton off the books and maybe send
Hamilton off the books and maybe send him back and get that money and add
him back and get that money and add Quinn Hughes. I feel like if they make
Quinn Hughes. I feel like if they make like one or two minor adjustment deals
like one or two minor adjustment deals at the deadline, all of a sudden they're
at the deadline, all of a sudden they're they're a contender
they're a contender in my opinion. And that's it. Like Doug
in my opinion. And that's it. Like Doug Douggee Hamilton's cap hit is just as
Douggee Hamilton's cap hit is just as much. Maybe it's like the exact same as
much. Maybe it's like the exact same as what Quinn Hughes is. And no disrespect
what Quinn Hughes is. And no disrespect to Douggee Hamilton because like there
to Douggee Hamilton because like there are years where I believe he's hit the
are years where I believe he's hit the 70 point mark and he is a dynamic
70 point mark and he is a dynamic offensive player. I just believe that
offensive player. I just believe that from an overall game perspective, like
from an overall game perspective, like even despite Quinn Hughes's size, he
even despite Quinn Hughes's size, he closes on guys defensively. Like he's
closes on guys defensively. Like he's very good in structure. He drives
very good in structure. He drives traffic. Like why would
traffic. Like why would break am I getting a comment from
break am I getting a comment from Posasha here in the chat?
Posasha here in the chat? 7.85 is what Quinn Hughes makes. Douggee
7.85 is what Quinn Hughes makes. Douggee makes nine.
makes nine. It's 7.85. That's what Hughes what And
It's 7.85. That's what Hughes what And what does he have? One two more years or
what does he have? One two more years or one.
one. He's got this year and next year left on
He's got this year and next year left on his deal. I thought he was in the nine
his deal. I thought he was in the nine range. My apologies.
range. My apologies. He should be in the 12 range. 13.
He should be in the 12 range. 13. Quinn Hughes only makes under 8 million.
Quinn Hughes only makes under 8 million. He must have signed that right out of
He must have signed that right out of his rookie deal.
his rookie deal. Well, Luke hasn't signed. I mean, Pasha
Well, Luke hasn't signed. I mean, Pasha would literally we would never he'd be
would literally we would never he'd be poof gone.
poof gone. Yeah, but
Yeah, but we'd never hear from him again.
we'd never hear from him again. He'd disappear.
He'd disappear. Okay. It just seems like a lot for
Okay. It just seems like a lot for and and
and and [ __ ] man. If New Jersey does end up
[ __ ] man. If New Jersey does end up having to move off of Luke and Jack
having to move off of Luke and Jack because all of a sudden they want to be
because all of a sudden they want to be New York Rangers or want to go somewhere
New York Rangers or want to go somewhere else, well, you also have a [ __ ] ton of
else, well, you also have a [ __ ] ton of leverage there. like that's you're going
leverage there. like that's you're going to get a boatload in return. I know you
to get a boatload in return. I know you don't want it happening, but I would if
don't want it happening, but I would if I I would bank on that all of them end
I I would bank on that all of them end up in New Jersey. That would be my that
up in New Jersey. That would be my that would be my guess.
would be my guess. And
And what about you? What do you think? I
what about you? What do you think? I think if they I I yeah, I could all see
think if they I I yeah, I could all see them on New Jersey pretty easily, but at
them on New Jersey pretty easily, but at this like and I saw a lot of people
this like and I saw a lot of people saying this when this whole discussion
saying this when this whole discussion began or was brought up this past week.
began or was brought up this past week. How would you not want to all play
How would you not want to all play together? Like if people if anyone would
together? Like if people if anyone would ever be up it's like to play with your
ever be up it's like to play with your three brothers getting to play on the
three brothers getting to play on the same NHL team. That's the coolest thing
same NHL team. That's the coolest thing I've ever heard. So, I know Quinn Hughes
I've ever heard. So, I know Quinn Hughes probably doesn't care even like if there
probably doesn't care even like if there were to be backlash from fans in
were to be backlash from fans in Vancouver, but I also feel that he's
Vancouver, but I also feel that he's done so much for their organization even
done so much for their organization even despite through the ups and downs and
despite through the ups and downs and and especially going back to the circus
and especially going back to the circus last year and how he handled it so
last year and how he handled it so professionally and and it probably got
professionally and and it probably got exhausting for him how to answer all
exhausting for him how to answer all those questions being in the middle of
those questions being in the middle of it and the captain of the team. He has
it and the captain of the team. He has earned the right just like McDavid going
earned the right just like McDavid going to the Leafs. That's the last time I'm
to the Leafs. That's the last time I'm going to mention it. He's earned the
going to mention it. He's earned the right to kind of get that. But I I I
right to kind of get that. But I I I mentioned it before with all these these
mentioned it before with all these these big stars up for contract and the league
big stars up for contract and the league turning a little bit more like the NBA
turning a little bit more like the NBA where there is kind of a I feel like
where there is kind of a I feel like these guys want to play in the big smoke
these guys want to play in the big smoke and they can kind of decide it now. Like
and they can kind of decide it now. Like that is the family where if they want to
that is the family where if they want to play for the New York Rangers, it's
play for the New York Rangers, it's happening and a nobody's stopping it.
happening and a nobody's stopping it. What if they all went what if they all
What if they all went what if they all went to the Wings?
went to the Wings? That'd be sick.
That'd be sick. That would be awesome because Detroit
That would be awesome because Detroit needs to make playoffs and I still think
needs to make playoffs and I still think that they're going to end up in limbo.
that they're going to end up in limbo. Pick anywhere, it'd be the Hughes
Pick anywhere, it'd be the Hughes brothers all are on the Red Wings
brothers all are on the Red Wings together.
together. Really?
Really? Yeah. I want the Wings and I've said
Yeah. I want the Wings and I've said this for years. It's kind of incredible
this for years. It's kind of incredible that the Wings have been jokes since
that the Wings have been jokes since this podcast began. Basically, the Wings
this podcast began. Basically, the Wings were like growing up, it was like, "Oh
were like growing up, it was like, "Oh my god, the it's just the Red Wings.
my god, the it's just the Red Wings. They crush everyone."
They crush everyone." So,
So, they made the playoffs 20 years in a
they made the playoffs 20 years in a row, right?
row, right? Yeah. I want them
Yeah. I want them on the big stage again.
on the big stage again. I guarantee the league does, too.
I guarantee the league does, too. So, who knows? I mean, it's just an
So, who knows? I mean, it's just an interesting conversation to me because
interesting conversation to me because it's thinking of the chance of those
it's thinking of the chance of those kids all playing together and it's a
kids all playing together and it's a very realistic possibility in New
very realistic possibility in New Jersey. You know, Quinn plays out this
Jersey. You know, Quinn plays out this year and he's like, "Guys, I'm thank you
year and he's like, "Guys, I'm thank you so much, but I'm I'm not signing here."
so much, but I'm I'm not signing here." And boom, Jersey, send me a jersey. I
And boom, Jersey, send me a jersey. I don't if I would my guess is going to be
don't if I would my guess is going to be if they're outside of a playoff spot by
if they're outside of a playoff spot by the time the deadline comes around in
the time the deadline comes around in Vancouver, they are just going to
Vancouver, they are just going to straight up ask him and if he ain't
straight up ask him and if he ain't coming back, which he's not, I think
coming back, which he's not, I think they're dumb if they don't ship him out
they're dumb if they don't ship him out this year. And cuz you're getting so
this year. And cuz you're getting so much more return. Not to say he's not
much more return. Not to say he's not going to get a boatload
going to get a boatload from from New Jersey. If if I'm New
from from New Jersey. If if I'm New Jersey, I'm basically giving up every
Jersey, I'm basically giving up every firstrounder I have to get him if he's
firstrounder I have to get him if he's going to sign.
going to sign. The only problem being though
The only problem being though and that he wouldn't be able to reup
and that he wouldn't be able to reup right away. So there's a bit of a
right away. So there's a bit of a there's a risk involved,
there's a risk involved, right?
right? Um
Um cuz cuz cuz he's he's still he would
cuz cuz cuz he's he's still he would have they would have to wait till July
have they would have to wait till July 1st cuz he's still got over a year left.
1st cuz he's still got over a year left. But if Jack and Luke are locked up, he's
But if Jack and Luke are locked up, he's going to stay there.
going to stay there. Yeah. Or he's like, "All right, I'm
Yeah. Or he's like, "All right, I'm going to go where you guys are coming in
going to go where you guys are coming in a couple years."
a couple years." Yeah. Or or he goes there and he's like,
Yeah. Or or he goes there and he's like, "Oh, I'll see how it is and then we'll
"Oh, I'll see how it is and then we'll all make our decision at the end of the
all make our decision at the end of the year." Cuz But Luke is Does Luke have to
year." Cuz But Luke is Does Luke have to sign his contract this summer?
sign his contract this summer? Yeah. And it I thought he'd be signed by
Yeah. And it I thought he'd be signed by now.
now. There's one other big name who hasn't
There's one other big name who hasn't signed his deal.
signed his deal. Who?
Who? Uh Mason McTavish.
Uh Mason McTavish. There's another one then. Somebody else
There's another one then. Somebody else hasn't signed their deal. G, help us,
hasn't signed their deal. G, help us, baby.
baby. There's a few bigname guys who who still
There's a few bigname guys who who still haven't been locked up before training
haven't been locked up before training camp.
camp. I know it's a crazy take, but uh PFT
I know it's a crazy take, but uh PFT said it a while ago when I was listening
said it a while ago when I was listening to pardon my take. They were talking
to pardon my take. They were talking about brothers. It might have been
about brothers. It might have been during the LeBron and his son playing
during the LeBron and his son playing with his son, and he was like, "If you
with his son, and he was like, "If you have a sibling in the league, you should
have a sibling in the league, you should be able to play." Like, how cool would
be able to play." Like, how cool would it be to see Brady and Matthew play
it be to see Brady and Matthew play together? How cool? Like, I got to play
together? How cool? Like, I got to play with Eric and Mark Stall together. It
with Eric and Mark Stall together. It was so sick. like just to sit in the
was so sick. like just to sit in the locker room and be like, "Oh my god,
locker room and be like, "Oh my god, this dude's brother is right next to
this dude's brother is right next to him." Like how [ __ ] cool is that, you
him." Like how [ __ ] cool is that, you know? So, I just think the storylines of
know? So, I just think the storylines of what you want, like it makes so much
what you want, like it makes so much sense for all those guys to play
sense for all those guys to play together. I hope it happens at some
together. I hope it happens at some point. Obviously, it's going to hurt one
point. Obviously, it's going to hurt one team or one fan base a lot, but to play
team or one fan base a lot, but to play with your brother and it's such a small
with your brother and it's such a small opportunity to do it, I think it would
opportunity to do it, I think it would be the coolest thing in the world.
be the coolest thing in the world. Yeah. fans. If you could pick one team
Yeah. fans. If you could pick one team outside of New Jersey where you would
outside of New Jersey where you would want to see the Hughes brothers play,
want to see the Hughes brothers play, where would you want them?
where would you want them? I think a package deal, get the Quinn,
I think a package deal, get the Quinn, the Hueses, and then Brady Kachchuck
the Hueses, and then Brady Kachchuck down here in Florida. Had them all down
down here in Florida. Had them all down here, all the brothers. And yeah,
here, all the brothers. And yeah, five of them. Uh, Bis G says it's uh
five of them. Uh, Bis G says it's uh Luke Evangelista and Alex Hol are the
Luke Evangelista and Alex Hol are the only other two.
only other two. What do you think Luke is Luke Hughes is
What do you think Luke is Luke Hughes is trying to get? What's his
trying to get? What's his I was wondering that too.
I was wondering that too. And and he could how many years like are
And and he could how many years like are they offering him long or they or is he
they offering him long or they or is he like I don't want long. I It's a hard
like I don't want long. I It's a hard game out there now. And and I think
game out there now. And and I think these are wild times for agents and
these are wild times for agents and players because the cap's going up and
players because the cap's going up and up and up and then you see reports of
up and up and then you see reports of where it could actually go like in 10
where it could actually go like in 10 years and it's just such a different
years and it's just such a different game now. Like it's it's hard to be
game now. Like it's it's hard to be somebody you how do you even know what
somebody you how do you even know what you want if you're going to sign eight
you want if you're going to sign eight years where 6 years from now you're not
years where 6 years from now you're not like what the hell did I sign this
like what the hell did I sign this contract for?
contract for? I'm I'm looking it up now. But how many
I'm I'm looking it up now. But how many years does Jack Hughes have left?
years does Jack Hughes have left? He has five or five.
He has five or five. He's got five including this year.
He's got five including this year. Okay.
Okay. That's why it's like why wouldn't they
That's why it's like why wouldn't they all just play in Jersey? that. Yeah,
all just play in Jersey? that. Yeah, that would be the only thing that really
that would be the only thing that really makes sense because the jersey is not
makes sense because the jersey is not going to make a trade with New York to
going to make a trade with New York to get them all there, right? Like you
get them all there, right? Like you No,
No, I think the only way it happens if you
I think the only way it happens if you they all go to Jersey right now, which
they all go to Jersey right now, which would be amazing.
would be amazing. I know. P. My god. Pasha, it would
I know. P. My god. Pasha, it would actually be even better in terms of what
actually be even better in terms of what I would want to happen to Pasha if they
I would want to happen to Pasha if they went there.
went there. Unreal year. If Biz's idea happens, he
Unreal year. If Biz's idea happens, he goes to Jersey halfway through this
goes to Jersey halfway through this year, they go on a run, they don't win
year, they go on a run, they don't win it. Maybe they make Eastern Conference
it. Maybe they make Eastern Conference finals or the cup finals and Posh's
finals or the cup finals and Posh's like, "Oh my god, like we're winning.
like, "Oh my god, like we're winning. We're winning three of these things in
We're winning three of these things in the next 5 years." And then Quinn's
the next 5 years." And then Quinn's like, "No, I'm all set." He goes
like, "No, I'm all set." He goes somewhere else and then, you know, the
somewhere else and then, you know, the other two are leaving. That would be
other two are leaving. That would be what I want to have to happen to Pasha.
what I want to have to happen to Pasha. That would be the best possible
That would be the best possible storyline. Hey, I wonder if he would
storyline. Hey, I wonder if he would take if he could take the trade right
take if he could take the trade right now, all three of them playing in New
now, all three of them playing in New Jersey the next two years together, but
Jersey the next two years together, but then knowing after that all three are
then knowing after that all three are gone.
gone. Yeah, but you got Hughes for 5 years.
Yeah, but you got Hughes for 5 years. Oh, you're saying he'd be like,
Oh, you're saying he'd be like, "No, but I'm saying is like then he
"No, but I'm saying is like then he would request a trade and he's out of
would request a trade and he's out of there." Like would you take the the role
there." Like would you take the the role wouldn't risk it? He wouldn't risk it
wouldn't risk it? He wouldn't risk it because he knows even with all of them
because he knows even with all of them the next two years they don't have a cup
the next two years they don't have a cup winner.
winner. He would he would even admit that.
He would he would even admit that. You don't think with the three of them
You don't think with the three of them in the next
