Superb Owl Royal Rumble and MORE!

I wouldn't have left an end so to my liking more.
It is 5 o'clock on the west coast.
It is the 6th of February in the year of our Lord 2025 season 15 episode 30 699 times you have been welcome to the clubhouse podcaster one stop shop for all things sports entertainment pop culture and pro wrestling live every Thursday night.
I think we've only missed one so far this year, which is crazy for us.
Welcome my name is Rob I'm the executive producer of the clubhouse podcast and I probably sound better than I did last week but we're getting there I'm getting out of the woods as they say.
I think this is just been allergies because our weather's been so all over the place and it's going to drop 30 degrees in a couple of days.
Alex out on assignment tonight as it is his and Sean's anniversary so happy anniversary to you kids.
But I am not by myself that way he is the official fact checker of sooner or greater productions and he is not by himself for the first time in a few days.
You may know him is a good thing but a word of advice do not leave your refrigerator in the garage the little door to the freezer part.
Make sure it's closed all the way and it's not cracked open all night because if you do you have to have the repairman come in and clean the fan and everything else and we're not good.
But speaking of fridges.
I got put this new this is greatness doctor pepper.
They have a diet they do have a diet.
No, it's new it's interesting I like it.
I'm not a big fan of prune flavor soda.
I am I like the cherry doctor pepper too and cherry cook so when if they ever bring the cherry vanilla diet doctor pepper back my wife will be very happy.
It hasn't been around since the pan.
You said a cherry vanilla very vanilla diet doctor pepper.
One of the main reasons she likes sonic is she can have them make it.
Okay.
But yeah.
The lovely town of the Mrs. Irving loves that.
I'll keep that in mind if I keep on.
There is no G.
Okay.
Irving.
My bad.
My bad.
Right there.
You can read it right there.
Yeah.
But we have a special guest joining us before too much longer so we're going to hold off on our superb owl talking because we got a lot to talk about when it comes to the superb owl.
But let's get into some NBA standings after a crazy week with the trade deadline ending today.
If you live in this town.
You're a lord.
This town lost its mind on Sunday.
I mean granted.
Nobody saw lucid getting traded coming.
Don't get me wrong.
No.
But I mean right now the mavericks are playing they're in Boston and they're winning this game by the better part of double digits.
So let's tap the break on the doom and gloom.
I think you know.
I would like I hope both teams do well.
Yeah.
Because my my heat finally got rid of Jimmy Butler.
So I'm happy.
But this is man.
People want to talk about loyalty and blah blah blah.
It's all about the money anymore.
And it's not.
Lucca didn't ask for a trade.
No, he didn't.
He just wanted to be a dirt.
AD the back year and yeah.
So.
I wish him nothing but the best.
I hope.
Yeah.
Right now they're up nine on Boston early in the second quarter.
So it's.
Let's let this play out because it's also about to be NBA all star weekend next weekend.
But if they could have kept him and added somebody else greater.
Different story.
But I think it's kind of like how people are so mad when.
Lebron left Cleveland and felt when he went to Miami and they felt in their burning the jerseys and all that.
But this wasn't you know this wasn't Lucas decision.
This was.
This was ownership.
Yeah.
It's kind of like they have.
I think it's close not near as bad.
But it's in that kind of realm of how people felt when they got Boston got rid of Babe Ruth.
They just say what were you thinking?
You know.
So who knows.
We'll see how up 13.
Okay.
I mean it's.
We got a lot of basketball to play.
So I'm saying.
But let's get up.
There's our special guest.
Let's get him.
Joining us now from beer 30.
Sports a clock.
He is a man of mystery.
But he is one of our favorite people.
Ziggy's in the house.
How are you doing brother?
I am good.
I am good.
I am in the car.
So I'll excuse the darkness.
No, that's not right.
You're here and that's what's important.
So we can actually do things in order because we were holding off on NFL till you got here.
If you haven't.
You're here 30 sports a clock.
You need to.
Ziggy does a great show.
And you know, with the superb owl coming up this weekend.
Alex is out on assignment.
So we had to have somebody fill those shoes.
It's coming Sunday.
And we've actually Alex sent me two pages of prop bets.
Okay.
So this is one of the reasons I wanted to make sure we had Ziggy.
Well, page and I mean it's three columns worth.
So right now.
I will say that the greatness of Ziggy.
That man could hit a golf club too.
We'll get there.
Don't get ahead of me to say it.
I'm giving you it's props.
You know we're going to talk about that.
So right now.
Kansas City minus one of.
I think this game is going to be a lot better than a lot of people think it will be.
I picked Kansas City in August.
August. So I've got to ride this thing out. You're the champs until somebody tells you otherwise.
Of Phil Jackson could be about to get paid because he has lice because he owns the word three P.
So he has licensed it to the Kansas City Chiefs for an undisclosed amount.
Wow. So yeah. So we're going to see what happens there.
I mean, give me, I got a ride with it. Give me Kansas City minus one. What are you thinking, Don?
No line or with the line. I'm still going to take Philly since it's only one. And when the super
ball is one point, that means the, when you have everybody in their dog looking at this game,
it's not like it's the, you know, the Thursday night game of whatever. This is a super bowl.
And you got Brett better's all the world. When you have it, it only be one.
It's not like a 13 point blowout, like some super balls in the past. So I think honestly that
I'm going for Philly on this. I think Philly is going to be a tight game.
All right. Ziggie. We're just going to marry Philly. Ziggie, who you
are. So listen, my, my head is with Philly. Where's your wallet? My wallet is with Kansas City.
Listen, until somebody tells you otherwise, I just, I don't believe, I think they did this on purpose
to make everybody think like, oh, Philly, Philly, Philly, ride the Philly wave. I think that
Vegas knew what they were doing. That's why they made them the favorite and they're going to,
they're going to win. It's going to be a close game, but it's going to be like a 42,
40, 42, 40 kind of game, 48, 46 kind of game. Somebody's going to go for an extra two-pointer,
miss it, and super bowl one, super bowl loss, basically. So you're going to take the over at 49.
Absolutely. Do you know how much these teams, how much these teams scored in the last
super bowl they faced each other? 35 to 38, Kansas City, obviously. But they scored 70 or, yeah, 70,
some of our points. Yeah, but without, without say, Quan Barthly, without Xavier worthy,
like, I just feel like this is going to be, this is going to be a 50, this is going to be a 60 to 80
point game. I'm slamming the over. I'm big money on the over. Don, what's taking over under?
Well, I'm taking Philly on this, since it's only one point for me. Over under is 49.
Oh, I'm sorry, I thought you meant with the line. Sorry, I'm not going to tell you.
Oh, I'm going to take, I'll take the over. If it's 40, yeah, I'm taking the over.
The over under on the national anthem right now is two minutes and a half a second. That's
going to be sung by John Baptiste. Excuse me. I heard it this morning on Pobbentom,
because Chikmiki, big betting guy, he actually found a website where they found out why the over
under sits on where it does. John Baptiste sang the national anthem in 2017 at the NBA All-Star
game at one minute and 59 seconds, which is why your over under is two minutes and a half a second.
He's not a guy that I think is going to trick it up. He used to be Colbert's band leader.
You know what, give me the under. I think he'll hit that same marquee hit in the NBA All-Star game.
Don, what you thinking? I'm this one. I'll take the over.
All right. Yeah, I think it's what's the Super Bowl. You want to do a perfect. You want to
extend the Rockets Red Glare. You know, that kind of thing. Keep it going. Yeah.
Have any fun. Yeah. All right. Ziggy, what you got? Over under.
Listen, I agree. I think it's going to go over because one, John Baptiste is from New Orleans.
That's why this is kind of a big thing. Two, I think that he's going to put on a show. I think he's
going to try to show the world why he was brought in to do this not only because he's from New Orleans,
but he is absolutely a great artist. So I think this is where he proves it over the two
minutes. Over two and a half a second mark. That's crazy. You got Alex. I think he's got some
of these confused because he has both of these at minus any player or coach to cry during the
anthem. Give me the yes. That's definitely the end right there. Yes. Yeah.
Live shots of Taylor Swift during the game over under is five and a half hammer the over
because you might have that in the first corner. Especially if it's a shootout.
If Kelsey scores a couple of touchdowns in this game, they're going to be
Taylor Swift Taylor Swift. Every time he touches the ball. Yeah. Not bad.
If I can't on this one, the only way I would go under or I could see it as an under is if,
which I don't think is going to happen, but if it comes out in clobberism and it's like the
Broncos 49ers Super Bowl was 55 to 10. If it's a blowout, they're not going to show Taylor Swift.
Oh, yeah, they will. They absolutely will. If it's 55 to 10 for feeling. Yes.
Here's why number one, they want the emotion. Number two, they got to keep eyes on the game.
Yeah. Cut to Taylor Swift so people don't change the channel. Yeah. Okay.
Kicker to hit the upright or crossbar on a kick. Yes. Plus 330, no minus 500.
I don't think that happens. Not in this game.
Is it either kicker? Yeah. Either one. I would. I would say I'd like a lot of fun money to yes.
Elliott, the kicker for Eagles. He's known for swinging and left for right. So I could see him
hitting the upright. If I can't on this one, I would say yes, there's a good chance because I think
this is going to be a blowout game, but it's going to be a tough game. And when you're going to have
some of those 35, I mean, some of those 45, I think you mean a shootout, not a blowout.
No, shootout. That's what I said. I think it's going to be a shootout. It's going to be a
close game. It's going to be a tough game. And there's going to be a lot of field goal attempts.
And so I think that with a lot of field goal attempts, especially if they're out so far,
there might be a chance. If it's going to happen once, I'd say, yeah, yeah, go ahead.
Horror Gatorade dumped on the winning coach.
I feel like it's going to be orange regardless of who wins right now. Orange plus 500.
Clear is plus 1000. Red plus 700. Yellow plus 450. Blue plus 600 and purple plus 210.
I'm leaning towards
red or orange regardless of who wins. I don't know. I would probably sprinkle a little on
orange and sprinkle a little on red. I don't think clear at all. That doesn't even sound right.
Done. Take one color. I'd say orange. Score in the last three and a half minutes of the game.
Yes, at minus 190. Know it plus 165. Alex is saying, yes, I'm going to tie this in
with another prop bet. Yes, there will be a score in the last three and a half minutes.
I'm also going to take the over at the longest touchdown being over 40 and a half yards,
because I think that last winning score inside three and a half minutes is going to be a dark play.
Okay. What do you boys think?
I think, yes, to the three minutes or three and a half minute mark, as far as a touchdown is scored,
the 40 yard or touchdown, both these defenses are in the top 10. I just don't, I think it's going
to be like, it's going to be one of those, you're going to have to work for every touchdown,
which both offenses can score. Both offenses are going to score. Obviously, I'm taking the over,
so I think they will. But I think that it's going to be dink and dunk or chunk yardage. I don't
think it's going to be any big, big explosive touchdown out of nowhere out of 40 plus yards.
Shortest touchdown at a yard and a half. I'm with Alex. Give me the under because there will be
the brotherly shove at least one. Yeah, I think three and a half minutes. Yeah, there will be
some kind of score course. I think it'll be a close game to the end. Secondly, I think there
will be a 40 yard score. I think somebody will just get a break out and go. I think there's going
to be one play where somebody's going to get open and be able to go. My gut tells me Barclay's
going to break one. It may only happen once, but it's kind of happy. That dude, he just knows how
to find the hole and just run right through it. Like it's man, he's amazing. Let's see what else
we have here. Total interceptions in the game at 1.5. Give me the over just because it would take
one of each. I agree. I see. Also at 1.5. What's it? 1.5? Do you say both interceptions and
fumbles at 1.5 is your over under. I take over on both. Alex says both teams peanut punch a lot,
which he's right. Ziggy. I'm with them on the peanut punch. So give me the fumbles over. I don't
know about the under. I don't know about the over on the interceptions. I think I might take the
under on the interceptions. I think it may be one or none interceptions. Jela Hertz is going to
give one away, but that's maybe it. He says, will there be an octopus? I'm not exactly sure what
he's referring to on that, but he says yes, plus 1600. Lotto ticket on hurts or Barclay because
both should score and will only need the two point conversion. Oh, will there be an eight point
play? That's what he's asking. It was minus six. It's minus 6,000. Yeah. So bet 6,000 to win 100.
No, I'm good on that one. But yeah, there's definitely going to be an eight point play in there
somewhere. Longest Barclay over 25 and a half yards. I've already said he'll break one. So give
me the over. Any anybody want to take the under over 25 yards? Yeah.
Oh, just on one run. I believe that's what it's saying, but it just says over. So it might be a
general over under. And if it's a general over under over all day. Yeah, I was going to say
over all the way if it's just general, but I thought, I don't know, I looked at it. I looked
at it recently. I thought it was the artist was like 69 and a half or something like that. Yeah,
it might be a play because everybody would hammer the over. Yeah, no, one one play 25 yarder
over 25. I mean, I guess I could see it. I think he gets it early because I think Philly comes
out and just feeds him early to set the tone to if they get the ball early, they got to see like
that's the thing is the coin flip is going to matter in this game a lot because whoever gets the
first gets to set the tone. But I don't know, I don't know. I'm going to take the over on the 25 yards as
well. All right. What are your expectations of this game? I think this is going to be a very
entertaining game. It's going to be a lot of fun to watch. I will be locked in. I mean, I'm
basically leaving church and darting to where I'm going. There's going to be no
no Philly Fallon because I love the pregame. I love all the things. I
want to be there as all of this unfolds as we name the MVP at the end of the game and the confetti
and all the things. I am ready for this game. I'm just not ready for the season to be over.
I think that's all of us. I think especially me, I'm
yet last week I didn't know what to do with myself. The Super Bowl or the Pro Bowl is it kind of,
I mean, it's it's fun to watch them try to play around and flag football and stuff but it just
didn't feel the same. And my Sunday just felt very empty. You are not wrong. You are not wrong
anymore. It just it felt so empty. I watched your basketball but it just it didn't feel the same.
Maybe because I know I got like six more months of basketball before it mattered. Yeah.
But yeah, I saw what I listen. I don't know if I want to listen to all the analytical talk
because I'm not I don't necessarily like the part of that part of it. I will be watching
the commercials. Yes, sir. In the beginning, I'll be watching commercials to see who takes up
that front spot who comes up with the best commercials because my team, my friends and family
will put a bet on like Budweiser, random, now Uber Eats, who's going to have like the best like
who's going to have the commercial that makes everybody laugh. Oh my god or how terrible that was
or whatever case would be. The only one I've watched so far because I like to watch it live is
I had to watch the Fantastic Four trailer. Like I that that was you know way from me but everything
else I've stayed away from. Don, what are your expectations for Sunday evening? First up,
I think it'll be a close game. I think there'll be some good commercials on that. So it's I don't
think it's going to be a blowout which is the big thing on that. We've got to what about the
coin flip? Did we get into that? It's it's basically just call it. I tails never fails. I always go
tail doesn't matter. Okay, I just wonder what the line was on that. They're both minus 101.
Oh, they okay. I'm gonna say tails on that on those coin flip too. All right, we were talking a
little bit of NBA before Ziggy logged on and the chaos that was this town currently a Maverick
syrup 18 on Boston. Let's get into your standings Eastern Conference Atlantic division. Toronto
has 16 wins and they're 20 back in the division. They are a game back on Brooklyn. Brooklyn. The
nets are three and a half back on Philly Philly. Now 13 and a half game backs games back on the
Knicks but Boston has won four in a row going into tonight and they're two up on New York.
In the central division that has no Eastern or Western. The Chicago Bulls have won 22 games but
they're still 19 and a half back. They're three and a half back on the Detroit pistons, former
chance of basketball. The pistons are three back on Milawakay. Bucks are a game back on Indiana.
Pacers are now 12 back on Cleveland as we're getting very, very close to the All Star break.
In the Southeast division. The Washington Wizards. They are still waiting for their 10th win.
They are nine and 41 right now. Now I sent Alex and Ziggy. I don't know if you saw this stat the
other day. 36 of the Wizards 41 losses came in two 16 game losing streaks.
They are now the new Detroit pistons. This is this is insane. Yeah.
They're four back of Charlotte. The Hornets are now nine and a half back of Atlanta. Atlanta's
a game and a half back of Orlando. Miami has now taken the lead in that division and I really
just want them to just go off now. The Jimmy Brothers got in the Pacific division of the Western
Conference. The Golden State Warriors where he went are currently five games back. By the way,
the point differential for the Wizards. They're averaging a a minus 13 and a half point differential
in the NBA. Golden State is tied with Phoenix Al who are also tied with Sacramento. They are
three back on the Clipairs and the Clippers are two back on the Lakers who have won three in a row.
In the Southwest division. Fly Pelican. They're 23 and a half, 33 games back and they won three more
than Washington. They are 12 and a half back on the Spurs. The Spurs who may some interesting moves
this week as well are two and a half back on the Mavericks. The Mavericks now six and a half back on
Houston Houston Houston. But Memphis has won four in a row while Houston has lost four in a row. So
they now have a two and a half game lead in that division and in the Northwest division. Utah
who's still happy. They've got a hockey team. They've won 12 games with their 28 games out of
first place. They are nine games back on Portland who's won five in a row. Portland six back on
Minnesota. Minnesota now four back on Denver. Denver's now nine back on Oklahoma City.
Who their big star had another 50 point game last week or last night. I'm sorry.
Let's get into the NHL as we get close to North America's favorite game show.
In the Eastern Conference. No, that's not what I want. Go there, please.
Atlantic division. The Buffalo Sob razor terrible. They're, you know, they're what?
Almost 30 points out of first place. There's six back on the Montreal Canadiens.
I had to do that by myself two weeks ago, Don, just so you know.
Okay, I was the only one here. They are five points back on Boston. Boston and Tampa Bay are tied.
Tampa Bay kind of in a free fall right now. They are a point back on Detroit. Detroit is a point
back on the Senators. Ottawa. It's four back on Toronto. Toronto's now a point back on my beloved
Panthers. And now where we going, Don? The Metropolitan Division. That is correct. In the
East, but there are the Philadelphia Flyers. Don, you're tied with Pittsburgh. You're with Philly
for the seller of that division. You're three back on the Rangers. The Rangers now a point
back on the Islanders. Islanders two back on Columbus. Blue jackets are now seven points back
of Jersey. The Devils two back of Carolina. And the Hurricanes now nine points back of the Washington
capitals as Ovechkin gets that much closer to Gretzky's all time goal record. You have to think
he's got like 16 to go in the central division of the Western Conference that also has no
Eastern or Western. The Chicago Black Hawks are still terrible. They're 41 points out of first
place right now. And it's not even the all start break. They are five points back of Nashville
predators or 10 back of the blues who are tied with Utah. Keep hockey club. Don't do all those
other names. Utah hockey club. Do it. They are 11 points back of Colorado. Avalanche two back on
Minnesota wild three back on Dallas. Dallas is now 10 points back on Winnipeg who's on a seven
game heater in the Pacific division. San Jose put a pin in it. Seattle currently two points back
on Anaheim. The ducks are now seven back on Calgary. Calgary and Vancouver are tied. They're three
back on LA LA now six back on Vegas where I will be in a couple of months and Vegas now four
back on Edmonton gentlemen. Are you ready for North America's favorite game show?
Yes I am. All right. It's time to play. What is the goal differential for the San Jose sharks?
Do you want me to go first or do you have the honors? Is that you?
Gricky will give you honors. This is North America's favorite game show that we play during hockey season.
We also during it. Do it during baseball season. What is the goal differential for the San
Jose sharks? Oh my gosh. And you pick the sharks. Is they have the worst? It's always the worst
team in the league. And they've been the worst. Almost bell to bell so far. 90. You need to go
bell to bell is the white socks. Oh 90. All right. Done.
Say that I'm just going to do it again. Negative 50. The San Jose sharks have played 55 games.
In those 55 games they are 15 34 and six. They are 36 points. They are currently 30 30.
Yeah 36 there. If they double their point total they would be tied for first.
They are 9 17 and 1 at home. They are 6 17 and 5 on the road. They are 2 8 and 0 in their last 10.
Now the only that's closest team to them from a goal differential standpoint is also in the
western conference which would be the Chicago black hawks at minus 45. In the eastern conference
you've got Pittsburgh at minus 37. Oh boy. And Philly at minus 30. Everybody else is closer than that.
Nashville at minus 33. The San Jose sharks on February the 6th right before they're all
star break. Has a goal differential of minus 62. Oh Ziggy went over Don with Don winds without
going over. Oh boy. I'm famous. Let's get into TV talk and stuff we watched this week.
TV edition. Anything you watch this week Don I didn't get to watch much TV this week. I've been
on. Last week. I saw it on peacock and they did the first episode on NBC. That new series called hunting
party. Is this is this the one where the families are in the studio. No. No. This is a series series.
This is in a reality show. Right. This is a series. This is the series. And they just show the pilot
on the other night on the NBC but it's on peacock. It's a pre thing. Basically what happened is you
have this former FBI profiler who was kind of burned out. They put her in a casino that kind of
keep over to watch the cheating. They call her and say we need help. Basically this guy the
syrup killer she used to go after they executed him. All that they're asking questions. He goes
why what's going on. Well actually all these serial killers. They've been keeping in the underground
prison secretly. They've studied these serial killers. So they say we execute them but actually
they put them in the prison as a secret government program and that actually there's a prison break
from that secret prison that no one knows existed. So all of a sudden these imagine if all of a
sudden Ted Bundy comes alive saying I'm here and he's on the display. No thank you. Yeah but no it
was a very good good good film. I mean a good show. I was impressed. I'm like yeah I want more of
that. All right. Yeah. Ziggy anything you watch this week of note. I saw that commercial for that
for that show. I never I didn't know it was that that kind of style that's kind of dope. So I'm
slow when it comes to TV. So don't judge me. I just started watching Landman.
You're good things. So I'm going to hate on you. I'm three episodes in and man. That is
it's one of Billy Bob Thornton's greatest pieces of work. He is just himself at least what I
imagine him to be because that's pretty much all the roles he gets. And my God it's it's it's
really really good. It's really really good. And then also Severance. I'm on episode three of that
as well I think and it's starting now kind of confusing but it's I can tell it's going somewhere.
Just to reiterate what I mentioned last week I have watched all four episodes of the SNL 50
documentaries. They're very very good. And I also watched the ladies and gentlemen the best of
SNL music which was to co-direct my quest love. And it's really well done. I put the opening video
on my Facebook page just so you can see the mega mix they did that was Joe. How many SNL shows
different things you said were there four? There's four documentaries. The first one is called
Five Minutes and it's about the audition process. Okay. The third one is basically a week in
the life of the show from the writer standpoint. Okay. The fourth episode oh I just look at my notes.
Don't get me lying. The fourth episode is it's called The Weird Year. It's about season 11 when
Lauren comes back and they're trying to get the wheels on after things being terrible for five
years. But episode two is an entire 46-minute documentary just about the Cal Bell sketch.
Okay. Oh yeah. Just about that and it's awesome. Where are they on or are they on peacock?
Okay. I'm sure they're going to be airing them as we get close to the week from tomorrow is the 50th
anniversary special that will be live and then next Friday at seven only on peacock they're doing
like a three-hour music special with a I mean the list of that guess is now so I'm looking forward
to that as well. If you watched the Roy Wood Jr show have I got news for you one of the people on
that show is the very very funny Amber Ruffin. I was announced this week that she will be the
featured entertainer for the White House correspondent's dinner. Oh no. I love her. She is so great.
And then the 16th is also the day that last week tonight with John Oliver comes back.
Hulu yeah week from tomorrow. Hulu has canceled how to dial loan after one season. We were just
talking about NBC peacock. They have inherited married at first sight from lifetime for three seasons.
No. I'm out. Yeah. And they have canceled hysteria exclamation point after one season.
So and Netflix has announced that season three of Squid Game will debut June 27th. Don.
Okay. So that's June. Okay. And they are calling it season three. We had a discussion on the show
a few weeks ago. Yeah. Of would it be season 2.5. It is being labeled as season three. So
not saying anything. Nothing of note on TV for DVD and Blu-ray this week. We have one quick music
note that came down last night of Irv Gotti passing away at the age of 54. If you know anything
about 90s and early 2000s hip hop. This was the man that founded Murdering. If you don't have him,
you don't have people like Ja Rule. Musical just he knew talent. And at 54, it's just crazy.
I mean, you could go down the list of stuff. I'm actually I want to do. I'm going to go through it
real quick. Let me go to the media of Wiki. So I can get some.
Let's American record producer. I love how formal Wikipedia is.
But you're looking at Murdering was a division of Def Jam. He had Jay Z DMX, Ja Rule,
Ashanti. He executive produced DMX as it's dark and hell is hot, which is one of his best albums.
Yes, sir. Started as a DJ at parties and queens where he discovered Mike Jeronimo and then he
became a talent scout for TVT records. He was also a briefly a DJ for Jay Z early on. And Jay Z,
one of my personal favorites, one of two hip hop artists that doesn't write lyrics down.
I mean, this guy knew what he was doing between Mike Jeronimo, Foxy Brown,
who else she did come back in one piece of Alia and DMX, Christina Miller, of course,
between me and you, what's love, which is a banger. He did the murder remix of Jennifer Lopez's,
I'm real, which really slows that song down. Really, that whole remix album is really good.
Always on time, which I love. I mean, the list just he did the where it does just lose it. There
was one. Okay, I thought there was one he did that he didn't of Memphis bleak the game. He
actually did violent crimes for Kanye West and brothers with Kanye West, like the guy new talent,
absolute loss in the world of hip hop and our best go out to his fans and friends and family.
Anything you guys want to add on that?
Man, being a queen's native and my family being close to job rule and the family
with Irv and everybody, take care of yourself, man. Take care of yourself.
I lost a friend in December to diabetes and that's basically what's being told is that it was
a stroke from diabetes and just that like our second stroke from diabetes and just,
you just got to take care of yourself, man. It's sad no matter what you think of him outside of
the music for the stuff that were the shanty and all the other crazy jokes and 50 cent
and all of B. You can all that stuff like that. That may, I mean, 54 is just far too young, so.
Agreed.
And so let's move on to movies and stuff we watched this week.
Movie edition. I also didn't watch any movies this week. Don, I know you saw two that we'll talk
about here in a minute. Yeah. Any other movies you guys want to talk about to shop this week?
I will say that coming up, I believe it's next weekend. I'm guessing on that,
may hear those and we're going to talk about Days Didn't Confused for their 420th episode.
Well, that's dope. No, the only two movies is the one that, which is gonna, we'll talk about later.
All right. Any movies you watched this week, Ziggy?
Kind of spelled asleep through Gladiator 2.
Yeah, I don't blame you. Don't blame you. I was so, I was so distraught about that. I was like,
when you, when I was on the show last time and I was like, oh, I really want to see that.
And I think, yeah, it was probably you. They said, like, oh, it's just there.
So yeah, I feel you now. It's just there.
I always look through. I read over Alex and I said, if he fights a shark, I'm leaving.
It's called reality. I love Ridley Scott, but I mean, how do you, in middle of Rome during that time
period, how do you get a landlocked city, not even near the coast to put live sharks in the thing?
How did they travel them there? Well, I'm catching them alive when they didn't have
fishing equipment and technology like today. Give me a break.
They did a, what I read down there is a scaled down version of that they actually did,
but without the sharks. And it was a lot more shallow.
Yeah, I mean, yeah, that's something that I know they did with the water. I understand that,
but not with man evening sharks in the middle of it.
I'm a technology.
So movie headlines this week, Denai Gira, and we'll be joining John Cena in the Matchbox cars
movie. They're doing a movie based on matchbox cars.
Remind me not to watch it. Oh, I'm not bringing you with me. You kidding me?
Matthew, you're going to be returning for Scream 7 because that franchise will not go away.
That's what I said. Yeah, Scream 7.
And, and Don, you'll be happy to know I watched a video earlier this week over the weekend.
I want to say it was what culture did the film series that need or that need to stop making
movies and Ice Age was number one. Oh, was it? Yeah.
Um, and you guys remember a movie a few years ago with Anna Kendrick and, um, Mrs. Ryan Reynolds,
why don't you, Blake Lively, that was called a simple favor.
I think it's a side. There is a sequel coming out. It's called another simple favor,
and it will be the film that opens South by Southwest this year.
Because it's that time of year that we start talking about South by.
That was Southwest. I am not ready for.
I'm not ready for festival season. It's just, uh,
it's a little time to breathe, man. But, uh, moving new releases in places you get moving
new releases this week. There's a movie called Parthenope. Uh, this is the name of the main
character. She's a woman who bears the name of her city. Is she a siren or is she a myth?
This is a foreign film that had its debut at, uh, the Cannes Film Festival this year.
Also, uh, I'll probably send back releases this week that came out last year.
Let's see what else we have this week.
Uh, a movie called When I'm Ready. It's the end of the world,
seeking meaning and thrills on their last days,
alive, rose and Michael and bark on a cross-country road trip as a devastating asteroid
weapons to wipe out life on earth. So, you know, oh, Dermot Mulruees in this.
Hmm. Basically, it's meteor or, uh, Armageddon. Uh, Lauren co-hands in this.
Those are the only names I recognize. But Don has seen two of the new releases coming out
in theaters tomorrow. Don, let's start with a film I am very much interested in. By the way,
he has written reviews. Both of those are located at www.theclubhousepodcast.com.
That's our website.
Let's start with Love Hurts with Kihei Kwan,
which I am looking very much forward to. You saw this last night. Yes, I did.
Uh, directed by Jonathan, uh, Usabio, who is a very well-known stuntman.
Yeah, it's their tutorial debut. Mm-hmm.
Put that out there. Um, it's 83 minutes, so it's very short.
You're not going to get your money's worth. And it's, uh, John Wick, the remake,
where they try to add some comedy and it doesn't work.
Ariana DeBose is in this. Daniel Wu was in this.
Marshawn Lynch is in this. Yeah.
Uh, Sean Astin is in this. Reese Darby is in this.
Uh, Don, there was a little piece to this that I that you did not mention in your written review
that I don't know if you noticed.
Was it the names of the two cops?
Oh, yeah. Um, um, was it Hobbs or whatever?
Hobbs and Shaw. Yeah, Hobbs and Shaw, yeah.
And one of them being played by.
Don't know.
What I'm trying to, this was, oh, man, Hobbs and Shaw.
No, this is on, um, the eyes or whatever.
Oh, is it the other one? Okay.
That's right. It's the other one we're going to talk about, which is love hurts.
Yes, it's, yeah. That's what I got confused.
Okay. Yeah.
I not love hurts. Uh, hard eyes.
Hard eyes.
We're in my head at today. Yeah.
This is, uh, Jordana Brewster.
Yeah.
She's one of the cops when they are Hobbs and Shaw, which is made.
But they said they wrote it that way before she was cast.
For the past several years, the hard eyes killer has wreaked havoc on Valentine's Day
by stalking and murdering romantic couples.
This Valentine's Day, no couple is safe.
Uh, we have a Devon Sawaw sighting to name we haven't said in the very long time.
He's in this Olivia Holt, Jordana Brewster.
Uh, let's see here.
It was a good test for what it is.
Um, there was a couple of those idiotic decisions that they made in it.
It's like, okay, we're being chased by killers.
Should we go left and run towards the, the big police van with the SWAT team standing right by it?
Or do we run into the empty abandoned old house?
Which one do we run into?
You know, which way do we run?
And they run towards the abandoned warehouse.
You know what?
As one does.
Yeah.
You know, that kind of mentality.
But still, for a good flick, it was innovative on some of the killings I could say,
you know, kind of like the John Wick innovation, you could say,
well, if I'm some comedy, it had a good kind of twist to it.
I kind of liked it for what it was.
I was going to say low key.
This is probably one of the only ones since the original like scream that I kind of wanted to see.
Like I'm the same producers.
So yeah, like, yeah.
So I'm kind of like, okay, hard.
I was like, when I first saw the preview, it was kind of my accident.
I was at an event and they just had it on loop with the YouTube.
How to add on it.
And uh, and I was like, whoa, like, they are like, gory with it.
Yeah, yeah, I'd say on, um, if I just see between love hurts or hard eyes,
I would see hard eyes over love hurts.
Okay.
22.
Yeah.
And I will be checking out love hurts this weekend as well because I have a list.
Well, if I got time, I might not leave it out.
You don't know.
All right.
Movies on DVD and Blu-ray this coming Tuesday where you get movies on DVD and Blu-ray.
A movie that is the very rare occasion that made the top three for all three of the boys on
this show, Conclave comes on Blu-ray.
Go see this movie.
I think you can stream it on peacock.
It's fantastic.
It's on peacock.
Ghost of Mars gets the collector's edition if you remember that film.
Also, the collector's editions of John Carpenter's Vampires, which is a very underrated film
in my opinion.
I very much enjoyed that film.
And last voyage of the Demeter, which came out last year.
And then Arrow Video has special editions of Alice Suite, Alice and a certain killer,
a killer's key.
Also, find out this week if you go to your local Barnes and Nobles all February long,
all of their Lionsgate titles are up to 50 percent off.
They did it with Arrow Video last month and I didn't know I wish I didn't know.
Because they've got a version of Weird Science I want to get.
All right.
And now this.
The Cheap Popcaps is your one stop shop where all things professional wrestling.
It's time to get into it.
And you might say to yourself,
how much is Ziggy going to have to say on this?
The answer is he's going to have quite a bit because he was with us last Saturday night,
which we greatly appreciate you coming out, sir.
For the Royal Rumble at X Golf in Frisco, I had to get a don or Alex's notes for this.
I loved the lower thirds that they did this year.
Ziggy, because you may not know the whole running tally across the bottom.
They've never done that before.
Ah, okay.
This to me is a is very TKO influenced and I'm here for it.
I loved it.
I loved how they had the flag for the country they were representing for the men.
They had the height and the weight, of course, for the women you do that.
But I like the stats they were throwing up because I am a bit of a stat nerd in that category.
Alex said the intervals were two minutes for the most part.
A couple of them came in kind of quick,
but he did say for the most part they were sitting at two minutes.
Do we have to live Morgan?
He says with the super pro move knocking Lyra down on a side to do the so the reps could help with the wardrobe malfunction.
Yes, that happened very early on.
Great work by the camera guys, too, to not catch anything they shouldn't have as Lyra's next strap came undone.
And kept everybody on the opposite side of the ring.
Alexa Bliss returned with Don, did you see the back of her jacket?
No, I did.
It was a tribute to Bray Wyatt, where it said fiend forever, but there was an E and an S.
So they were really tiny.
So it said friends forever.
Oh, okay, that's cool.
It's good to see Alexa back.
Alex and I don't disagree with him.
This person they've got doing the theme music.
It's just not good.
Start licensing it back out, please.
I beg you.
In general, these newer themes are just not good.
I'm not enjoying them for the most part.
You're all starting to sound the same.
They said something on the broadcast that we didn't know that apparently
Zelina Vega and amazing red are cousins.
Oh, really?
Yeah, that was that was a shocking development that Alex and I both were like, really?
Okay.
Charlotte has 14 world titles 16 if you include NXT.
Okay.
So we're going to see how that maps out.
They did highlight the Cosm coverage.
And Cole said they went wild for Nikki Bella.
But the video where there was zero excitement.
Like it was very want-want for me.
The only reaction they had on the video was a woman shaking her head in disappointment,
but Charlotte does win the women's rumble to the surprise of literally no one.
Yeah, I mean, it was kind of like Batista.
They just kind of telegraphed it.
So the best two out of three falls match was a great match.
Brilliant storytelling by the Alex says about the first DIY fall.
No belts change hands.
Which again, to the surprise of pretty much no one, I think I thought to tell you,
I thought to tell you what it changed.
I but I think like I said on the show, I think we're saving that for Mania.
Let's see Cody's gear.
He said it was a natural homage.
And the first number 20 to ever win the rumble.
As Jay, by the way, I'm going to come back to this Jay Uso,
which I don't know anybody that would have called that.
I had a couple of people say they thought they would like to see him win.
My reaction was man, they kept him in that main event.
No pun intended area for a long time, but to let him win the rumble.
And then he did Ziggy, what were your thoughts about the event?
First off, I haven't watched a royal rumble or a ladder match for that matter in years.
And I forgot how crazy the ladder matches can get.
Because like I really thought oh boy, died.
We said that about once every time there's a ladder match and wait until you see money in the bank.
Money in the bank is the craziest ladder match of all of them.
Okay, so then yeah, so I,
the royal rumble, I'm lowkey mad.
They're 21 because I had the dibs on it.
I think I had John Cena.
I thought John Cena would have took it once I seen it.
We all thought was going to win.
Yeah, I didn't think it was Charlotte because it was so telegraphed.
And then he, he made it to the final two and didn't win.
Didn't win.
Yeah, so I was shocked.
I was thinking, I was thinking definitely Cena.
I didn't know Cena was, I mean, again, I don't watch wrestling at all.
But I didn't know Cena was still wrestling.
I thought Cena was the movie star.
Well, he does, he's not wrestling full time, but this is the final year.
Like this is it.
So this is his farewell tour.
So then I saw the later on.
I saw some clips of, uh, I show speed.
Yeah, uh, yeah, you got more of getting speared out of his shoes.
But no, our truth.
And I was grand set about that.
You see, there's a guy named our truth that we love because he's just crazy.
And he did not like last year he came out during the women's rumble.
Like that's kind of his bit.
Like it's, and there was no our truth in this.
One of the very interesting piece of storytelling Don and I want to know if you noticed this
with the way it's on frozen.
No, I'm going to, I want to tell you, I was looking up something.
The, uh, if I get back to the rumble about Jay,
it was so nobody picking him.
Mm-hmm.
You know, the betting odds were like, John Cena was like the negative one hundred and like four
to one and reigns was ten to one bronze.
Jay Usu was like twenty to one.
Yeah, no one in most things he didn't have enough there.
Uh, because like four to one, but something I went back and looked at Don
because I thought it was a very interesting story telling.
Finn was eliminated before Dom got to the rumble.
Because I was kind of wondering with this whole teasing of
Finn breaking away.
And as we, as I have read, he's in line for a huge singles push this year.
Oh, I was wondering how they were going to treat he and Dom being in the rumble at the same time,
but they weren't.
So they were able to keep that story at bay, which then they addressed a little bit on raw
as, oh, we just lost Ziggy.
We get him back.
But I thought that was a great piece of storytelling.
Oh yeah, I thought rumble, I thought it was a good rumble overall.
Um, it was, you know, the only thing I think was predictable is when he had
the number to all the people in the 20s were except for Roman.
Um, all the favorites were like 23 and above.
Yeah, and it was also a very,
there were, there were a lot of people that there wasn't, there wasn't a lot of
that to be trimmed in either rumble.
No, no, like outside of maybe a handful of people in each one.
Like the majority of the people that were in the rumble could have legitimately won.
Yeah, and we spent a long time since Ziggy or muted by the way.
Oh, it's been a long time.
I think since we've been able to say that.
But you know, we have the, the spur of the moment person added or whatever,
or there's always that surprise person or there's always that kind of,
I instead of prune that one, you know, YouTuber guy or whatever,
who's the one that was who made the, uh,
triple, like it says, get out there.
Take a spot.
That's who you got speared out of her shoes.
Yeah, I would have rather had Santino Marell get in there and actually see,
I made it more than one second, you know,
well, there was one pivot because Jordan Grace was a last minute addition.
Oh, what should I fix?
Shotsie's place.
Shotsie was supposed to be in the rumble.
Oh, but Jordan Grace took that place.
Uh, I'm interested to see what, because we are now officially on the road to
WrestleMania.
WrestleMania is the, is actually Easter weekend this year.
Oh, no.
And it, and it's, and the second night is on 420,
which is even weirder because it's in Vegas.
Uh, but we have elimination chamber coming up March 1st.
We'll be the next one.
Stay by the channel as we kind of negotiate those waters.
Next weekend is both NXT Vengeance Day and AEW Grand Slam.
Australia, which I don't know.
The thing is, they're not starting that broadcast until after,
because TNT is carrying the NBA all-star game stuff.
And they're not going to show why.
Well, it's going to, it's, it's slated to start at 1030 Eastern.
Yeah.
So it's not going to be on that much of a delay because they're in Brisbane.
But they're, they're not showing it, they're, they're not showing it live, though,
when they, no, it'll be on take play.
Yeah, take the way.
We don't have an exact moment because we don't know how long
the all-star game stuff's going to go.
Yeah.
So I'm hoping I can get it recorded because that's a late night for me.
I'm old.
So we'll see how that goes.
Um, Apollo Cruz is injured and has had surgery.
So he is on the mend.
Just a couple of notes of, I like what they did with the new day on RAW.
That new entrance that now that they've gone heal.
Yeah, they've changed everything.
And it looks cool.
But I need to know where this is going.
And I need us to get there.
That's all.
And then you get it.
The entrance this time is just they're in the ring and the music was going.
No, they got an entrance, Don.
That's right.
They're like a whole dark video game thing.
Okay, okay, okay, okay.
My bad, my bad.
Don, did you watch NXT?
No.
Did you find, did you hear what happened on NXT?
No, I did not.
So Lexus King is in the ring,
bragging about the fact that he has the heritage cup.
Okay, wondering who's going to challenge him.
And then a song played.
They brought it back.
But he came out as JDC because he's part of the system.
He's going to be the challenger.
But the fact that they played the Fondango theme and not
the system theme, because when they played, I'm like,
do your god, let him come out in the outfit and do the whole bit.
And then he didn't.
And I was like, wait a minute.
That's good.
He didn't come out as a dancer.
No, he didn't.
So you may want to go back and watch that, Don.
Okay.
Because Ziggy, for those of you that don't know,
when Don first joined the show,
that was his nickname was Fondango.
Yeah.
Uh,
don't don't don't don't.
Yeah, I like that.
Okay.
I both take the credit and the blame for that.
By the way, Mav's now up by 18 with about halfway through the third.
All your Boston Celtics.
I will ask, what did y'all, uh, what did you guys think of the trade?
It was my, it was my basic opinion.
Like, I don't understand.
Like, I like, I thought, yeah, was it bad business?
Yeah, especially with apparently Jason kid didn't even know.
But yeah, this is all going to work out.
The Mavericks have a good lineup.
It's, I think it was the shock value of all of it.
That, that, that there was no precursor.
And now, you know, I think Lucas is going to live his best life.
He said he likes being by the ocean.
Yeah.
And Laperon loves him.
Oh, yeah.
He has been his phone as big 23.
So, uh, I think in the short term, it's a good trade for the Mav's
and the long term, it's a better trade for the Lakers.
I think we'll know more probably, you know, as we get into the, the,
the dog days of, of late March, early April.
Right.
Yeah, it's from what I heard though.
And I could be wrong is they really didn't shop around.
And if you were to go to other franchises and say, hey,
we got this guy, we want to, we're willing to trade.
They went to the 10 other teams.
I guarantee you, we, we got a better trade from at least two teams
and what the Lakers gave us.
I don't know.
The Mavericks are up 20 AD's not even dressed.
Yeah, but you get on the Boston Celtics.
I understand, but you get my point that they never shopped this guy around.
Well, yes, I get that point, but also what players are you?
What?
So Lugandon's, um, I always mess his name up, but he's, he is a, um,
generational talent, right?
But there are a lot of teams that have a superstar that they would not trade.
There are a lot of teams that would not have done the trade.
Only teams that would make that kind of trade would be, uh, the Lakers or Miami or Boston,
but I don't see Boston getting rid of anybody on that championship team.
So my thing is they felt that I, I mean, here's, here's where I think,
I think, first of all, I think Rob Pelonsky, Danny Ange knew about the whole thing.
And Danny Ange is the Boston Celtics, uh, General Manager,
you know, whatever the case would be.
I call Danny Ange just like I call Howard Roseman and for the Eagles.
He is literally, they are literally the thieves in the night.
They will steal your franchise player in a heartbeat and will not lose a lick of sleep over it and
not lose any sleep and not lose draft picks.
The one thing that I think the demands did right is not lose any draft picks
to build for the future for later.
And two, they didn't get a slouch back.
They didn't get a bunch of pieces to do whatever they got a guy that's
arguably a hall of fame or win healthy.
And I feel like the reason they didn't do it that way is because
then you give Luke of the power.
You give Luke of the power to say, no, if you if you try to train me,
I'm only going to go here and now your hand is forced like the Jimmy Butler situation.
I think he goes did the right thing for the future.
If all the rumors are true, um, and I also think that, you know,
there's some truth to the to the owners maybe trying to force Dallas or Texas hand about
listen, you're either going to you're either going to give us gambling in Texas
or we're taking your storage franchise.
The only one of the only franchises that's won a championship in the biggest market in Texas
to Vegas. Do with that what you want.
Well, and you also have to look at it from the standpoint of that super max deal
that they were going to have to offer him.
Right.
Which
is ridiculous numbers.
So it's yeah, it all washes out.
So quick AEW headlines.
The Jericho crews just wrapped up.
There were some really kind of interesting things we had in the last match on the last night.
Enzo Amore showed up and so got he got reunited with Big Bill in that match.
Tommy Billington got injured on the crews.
And mean to share Kawa may have been injured during a star a stardom show.
Uh, all reports from the crews everything went well.
Everybody had a blast.
I saw a bunch of the, uh, the pictures from it.
It looks like the next Jericho crews will not be until October or November of next year.
So, but it looked like everybody had a blast.
Um, AEW is back.
They're doing their shows again.
I'm about probably two thirds of the way through Ring of Honor and you're not missing much.
Uh, anything else we need to talk about Don.
Yeah, um, if I could pull it up one second here.
Do, do, do, do, do.
Only take a sec.
Look at that.
This is a person.
Okay, um, so in a couple of weeks they start the new season of Dark Side of the Ring.
And the, they have 10 episodes.
It's going to be, um, hell in the cell.
Big van Vader, Tony Atlas,
Louis Big, uh, Borga, Billy Jack Haynes, hot stuff, Eddie Gilbert, superstar, Billy Graham,
Daphne, the original chic and Muhammad Hassan.
So those are the 10, uh, Dark Side of the Ring, uh, uh, topics that they're going to have on the ice.
If you choose to watch that, what?
And it's on vice for people that want to, yes, on vice.
