Lightning Round: Golden Globes Podcasts, Brett Favre Rankings & Starbucks Summer Menu

All right, well, let's wrap up this wonderful show with the lightning round.

Michael, we're going to.

You first.

The Golden Globes are adding a new category recognizing podcasts this year.

If not your episode, this episode of the Omnitok Retail Fast Five.

Which podcast would you put in the running?

Is this like a podcast in general or just one specific podcast?

I forgot to ask that.

It's a.

It's.

It's any podcast from what I understand.

So it could be call.

If it's, you know, call her daddy, whatever you want.

It could be, you know, the.

You know, Michael, call her daddy every week.

Yeah, yeah, it's interesting.

I call her daddy.

I have listened to it because I actually think her business story is absolutely remarkable.

So I'm totally intrigued by it.

Absolutely.

And I do think from a.

From a target audience standpoint, the content that she produces is dead on.

That podcast is not for me in any way, shape or form, but I think she's a genius at targeting her.

Her.

Basically her customer base or her demo.

And I saw an interview with her and Dave Portnoy, which obviously she started on Barstool, and him being the normal brash person that he said that he is, he said to her, to Alex, he said, well, you're just Barstool 2.0.

But it's.

It's pretty interesting because she kind of poo pooed that quickly, but if you step back, yeah, you kind of go, it's interesting.

She has now taken over the microphone in sort of the flag of that generation, which there are massive amounts of millennials and gen zers and even Alpha that hopefully they're not all listening to that podcast.

Based on the vulgarity of some of it, but not being political, my choice would be Tucker Carlson.

I find him very interesting.

And this may sound crazy, but.

But very.

I don't know if neutral is the right word, but inquisitive.

And I heard a podcast.

I was driving, we were on a long trip, and I heard a podcast that he did about COVID and the COVID virus and the actual components from a biological standpoint.

It was fascinating and it was very educational, and I've done research to see if what he was saying was right or wrong.

And he was completely down the middle of the road.

So I.

I find him very interesting.

Wow.

All right, cool.

Like to stay informed.

All right, the Fall of Far Back to you, Michael, again.

And then we'll hit Chris with the final two.

The Fall of Farve, the latest in Netflix's series of sports documentaries.

Retraces the good time gunslinger's arc from humble Mississippi beginnings to his NFL peak to the texting scandal that tarnished his reputation.

Where does Favre rank for you in terms of all time quarterback greats?

Top 10?

Top 20?

Doesn't rank at all.

Where do you.

Where do you put them?

So weird.

You.

You got to.

You got to judge these guys because they're public figures, I guess, on the whole body of work.

Right.

So based on his sports stats, he's like top three quarterbacks from his stats or top five.

I can't remember what it was, but when all the stuff was coming from Tom Brady and when he ranks in all of the stats, whatever they are very, very high.

And his age, he was very old when he was still competing at a very high level.

So he's from a physicality, sports deliverable standpoint, very high.

From off the field behavior, he's like top 100.

I mean, really, like, tarnishing his reputation.

Bell curve.

Yeah.

Right.

Yeah.

So this one, I've got no vote.

I can't really.

I can't really place them because it's too tough to figure out where.

Where do you.

Wait, which.

And, you know, how do you.

How do you do it?

But he's definitely A Tale of Two Cities, so.

And he takes your approach.

He abstains.

That's right.

I'm staying.

I support that.

I support that.

All right, Christie, question number three.

Netflix just picked up Sesame street streaming rights.

Who is your Sesame street spirit animal or I guess puppet, maybe is the puppet.

Right?

Good call.

Yeah.

Well, I guess that's pretty easy because when I was three years old, I dressed up as Cookie Monster for Halloween, so I'm gonna have to.

Have to go there.

That's definitely a puppet.

I don't.

I don't think Cookie Monster definitely is an animal.

That's true.

Definitely a puppet.

I like Big Bird.

All right, last one.

Starbucks unveiled its new summer product lineup yesterday, including a new iced orchard, oat milk, shaken espresso, and the return of fan favorite summer berry Starbucks refreshers.

And a new strawberries and cream cake Pop.

Which of these items do you most want to imbibe this summer?

Christ, Issa.

Probably this summer.

Berry refresher.

Low sugar.

The least amount of sugar of all the new items.

Yeah, yeah.

That orchard, though, sounds tasty.

I can't wait to get it.

It does.

My nephews like the cake Pop.

So I'm sure I'll be buying both.

Yeah.

Right?

Is it me?

Is it me?

Or do you guys feel guilty if you just go into Starbucks and order a regular coffee.

Like, I mean, it's amazing, right?

The lineup they have.

It is.

Yeah, it is.

It is hard not to get swayed by something a little bit extra and a little bit sweeter.

So.

All right, well, that was.

One last thing, and then I'll let you close it out.

Chris.

We.

We were on a project, and we had a tried and true Starbucks lover, and he would do whatever crazy drink was out there.

And somewhere around Easter, there was a green matcha with, like, purple foam on the top, oat milk lavender thing.

And we all made a ton of fun of them.

But my wife had one recently, and I drank it.

It was the best drink I've ever had in my life.

So what was it called?

Do you remember, for our fans, what it was called?

It's a matcha lavender oat milk latte.

Okay.

Latte.

Ice.

Latte.

Ice.

Ice latte.

Okay.

Okay.

Yeah, it's.

It's fabulous.

It's right on the front of all of the.

Of the Starbucks apps.

Now, maybe they're targeting me now because I did that, but I'm now a believer in any in.

In non regular coffee drinks at Starbucks.

Yeah.

Wow.

Wow, that's awesome.

So, fans, listen up.

Go get one today.
