0:22
Speaker 1: Beard Law number nine. Sometimes the carpet outshines the drapes.
0:26
Speaker 1: What's up, ladies and gentlemen. This is Matt at Beard
0:29
Speaker 1: Laws Podcast. I appreciate the hell are you coming back?
0:32
Speaker 1: I really do. It's episode nine. Seems like it was
0:34
Speaker 1: just yesterday we were doing episode one. This episode, I'm
0:37
Speaker 1: trying to keep a little bit shorter. I've had some
0:39
Speaker 1: feedback from some of the listeners that they're enjoying a
0:42
Speaker 1: little bit of the shorter podcast, so we're going to
0:44
Speaker 1: try to keep this short and sweet. I'd like to
0:46
Speaker 1: wish everybody a happy Thanksgiving, and here beard Laws, I
0:50
Speaker 1: want to give you bearded men a couple of tips.
0:53
Speaker 1: You should already know. But there there's a lot to Thanksgiving,
0:56
Speaker 1: not only the cooking, the cleaning, the hanging out sometimes
1:00
Speaker 1: with family that kind of annoys you. You know who
1:03
Speaker 1: you are, we all have that person. But getting Thanksgiving
1:06
Speaker 1: dinner all over that beautiful beard. There's a couple of
1:08
Speaker 1: ways you can do it. You can obviously pull it back.
1:11
Speaker 1: You can put your beard in a hair tie. People
1:13
Speaker 1: are gonna have a good laugh, but hey, last laughs
1:16
Speaker 1: on them because you're not having a leftovers in your beard,
1:18
Speaker 1: or you can go with the napkin approach. This is
1:21
Speaker 1: what I usually do pretty much every time I take
1:23
Speaker 1: a bite or take a drink, most of the time
1:26
Speaker 1: clean up duty. So take a couple of napkins, get
1:28
Speaker 1: yourself a nice cloth napkin. Hell, bring your own napkin.
1:31
Speaker 1: Maybe we can get some beard Laws official napkins. Not
1:35
Speaker 1: gonna happen for Thanksgiffing, but maybe Christmas is right around
1:38
Speaker 1: the corner. Just take smaller bites, use your fork, use
1:40
Speaker 1: your spoon, don't be an animal out there, and the
1:43
Speaker 1: Beard's gonna be all right. And if you find a
1:45
Speaker 1: little bit of uh stuffing turkey or potatoes or some
1:49
Speaker 1: kind of vegetable or even some dessert in there a
1:52
Speaker 1: little later, that's just a win on your part. Speaking
1:55
Speaker 1: of Christmas, just mention that keep a lookout on beardlaws
1:58
Speaker 1: dot com. I'm gonna have some spe se edition stuff
2:01
Speaker 1: have it in the works for merchandise for stuff that
2:04
Speaker 1: would make phenomenal Christmas presents. Also potentially going to be
2:08
Speaker 1: partnering up with a couple of oil companies, so you
2:12
Speaker 1: could go to beardlus dot com, use some hand selected
2:15
Speaker 1: oils that I'm a fan of, and potentially get them
2:18
Speaker 1: for a little bit cheaper, little update, have the new
2:21
Speaker 1: roof on the studio, have a couple of walls already
2:24
Speaker 1: on the studio. Going to be putting the floor down
2:27
Speaker 1: here pretty soon. Going to try to keep chipping away,
2:30
Speaker 1: so hopefully we can get into the new studio, do
2:32
Speaker 1: some recording, and I can kind of do a YouTube
2:35
Speaker 1: video and some other things to show that bad boy off.
2:38
Speaker 1: Also on YouTube, I'm going to start doing some reviews.
2:42
Speaker 1: Can be doing some reviews for oil butters, whatever else.
2:45
Speaker 1: I have a couple of companies that have some stuff
2:47
Speaker 1: that are on their way. Once we get them in,
2:49
Speaker 1: I'm going to talk about it, not only on the podcast,
2:52
Speaker 1: but I will do some reviews on the YouTube. I'd
2:56
Speaker 1: like to know what your favorite part of Thanksgiving is?
2:58
Speaker 1: Is it the family? Is it the drinks? Is it
3:01
Speaker 1: the desserts? Is it the turkey? Is it the potatoes?
3:04
Speaker 1: Is it the stuffing? Does your mom, does your grandma?
3:07
Speaker 1: Does somebody in your life make the most amazing you
3:11
Speaker 1: know what I mean? I'd like to hear hit us

3:45
Speaker 1: if you want to, that's cool. So for the hidden question,
3:48
Speaker 1: what's the hidden question? This hidden question is going to
3:51
Speaker 1: be in every episode coming up. Or I simply ask
3:54
Speaker 1: you a question, you answer the question by emailing myself

4:05
Speaker 1: you're entered to win a prize of our choosing. It
4:09
Speaker 1: could be anything cool. It could be a hat, it
4:10
Speaker 1: could be a shirt, could be a sticker, could be
4:13
Speaker 1: a dog turd you'll never know, could be a drawing
4:15
Speaker 1: that Logan did on a quick draw ticket, you never know.
4:18
Speaker 1: But either way, they'll be entered to win. So the
4:19
Speaker 1: hidden question in this episode is what is Matt's favorite
4:24
Speaker 1: food on Thanksgiving? My favorite food on Thanksgiving without a doubt,
4:29
Speaker 1: is the turkey. I love the meats. What can I say?
4:32
Speaker 1: A lot of people these days are deep frying the turkey. Nah,
4:35
Speaker 1: not a fan. I don't mind it. Traditional, Get that
4:38
Speaker 1: in the oven. Let that baby slow cook all day,
4:40
Speaker 1: get that extra crispy skin, keep it old school. That's
4:44
Speaker 1: the way that I like it. Close second is a
4:48
Speaker 1: smoke turkey. Love smoke meat, especially if it's done properly.
4:52
Speaker 1: So that's it. Or what is Matt's favorite food for Thanksgiving?
4:55
Speaker 1: It's that turkey. So video games have kind of always
4:58
Speaker 1: been a little bit of a part of my my life.
5:00
Speaker 1: It's not something that I grew up playing, but as
5:03
Speaker 1: I got a little bit older and technology got a
5:05
Speaker 1: little bit better and my parents got a little more money,
5:07
Speaker 1: started doing some console game and well, these days gaming
5:11
Speaker 1: is kind of more and more into my life. Mess
5:13
Speaker 1: some great friends, some great connection. Shout out to my
5:16
Speaker 1: ADK crew who I'm hoping to have a couple of
5:18

Speaker 1: have taken over the original owner decided to step down,
6:27
Speaker 1: focus on their life a little bit, pursue a different job,
6:30
Speaker 1: pursue a different contract, stuff like that. So I decided
6:34
Speaker 1: instead of having this go away and just kind of
6:37
Speaker 1: die off, to take it over. We have a great
6:39
Speaker 1: management team, we have some great people in the organization already,
6:43

7:09
Speaker 1: of cool things going on. Sodjent Esports, pretty exciting stuff.
7:14

Speaker 1: is pretty much upon us. Look out for deals all
7:37
Speaker 1: sorts of electronics. If you are confused, you're not great
7:40
Speaker 1: with tech stuff, hit me up. I have a pretty
7:42
Speaker 1: decent understanding. If I don't know, I have some friends
7:44
Speaker 1: that have a very good understanding. I'd hate for you
7:46
Speaker 1: guys to go out spend a bunch of money on
7:48
Speaker 1: something that is junk or just because it's on sale
7:52
Speaker 1: that you think it's good. I can help you guys
7:54
Speaker 1: find a deal, and anybody that's looking for merch let
7:57
Speaker 1: me know. Recently, I teamed up with Jecks, who is
8:00

Speaker 1: dot tv. Slash Jackslyne created a page for herbeard laws
8:08
Speaker 1: dot com slash jacksline with all her merchandise. So if
8:11
Speaker 1: you are a fan of Jackslyne, make sure that you'd
8:13
Speaker 1: go over hits. A merch portion of the profits obviously

Speaker 1: go right to her, and a little bit it's going
8:19
Speaker 1: to go to Beer Laws, which is going to help
8:22
Speaker 1: out the cause. I know there's a couple of Black
8:25
Speaker 1: Friday deals currently for games as well. I know Xbox
8:29
Speaker 1: you can get the Beta trial for a dollar, which
8:32
Speaker 1: allows you to access games that can be downloaded on PC,
8:35
Speaker 1: like ce If, Thieves, and Overwatch. So if you're looking
8:39
Speaker 1: to check out any of those games, now might be
8:40
Speaker 1: the time, really cheap to get them. Try them out.
8:43
Speaker 1: If you like them, you can continue to pay. If
8:45
Speaker 1: you don't, then you're not out anything. GTA five is
8:48
Speaker 1: on sale through Steam fourteen ninety nine. Pretty crazy. Read
8:52
Speaker 1: an article this morning that Valve actually pulled about one
8:55
Speaker 1: thousand games if not more, through Steam, which is one
8:58
Speaker 1: of the most popular avenues to download games, So it's
9:04
Speaker 1: pretty wild. I didn't get a chance to read through
9:06
Speaker 1: it all to see exactly what was going on, but
9:09
Speaker 1: I guess there was kind of breach in policy or
9:13
Speaker 1: people weren't following the guidelines. So google it. If you
9:17
Speaker 1: want more, google it. I'll I'll find a couple of links.
9:20
Speaker 1: I'll throw them on beard laws dot com slash podcast
9:23
Speaker 1: where I post all the links to everything. But yeah,
9:26
Speaker 1: if there's a game or there's something you're looking for,
9:29
Speaker 1: now is the time to find those deals. I'm gonna
9:31
Speaker 1: transition into some sports chat, just a quick little brief
9:35
Speaker 1: sports chat. I know with the holidays and work schedule
9:39
Speaker 1: that Logan has going on, I don't think he's gonna
9:42
Speaker 1: be able to get in on this episode. But episode ten,
9:44
Speaker 1: we're gonna do it big. I'm gonna push hard. He
9:47
Speaker 1: really wants to and talk to him the other night
9:49
Speaker 1: he does feel bad. So if you guys, miss logan,
9:52
Speaker 1: what I really need you to do? Show him some
9:54
Speaker 1: love Logan at beard laws dot com. Hit him up
9:57
Speaker 1: all sorts of love, or bust his balls, be like,
9:59
Speaker 1: where what have you been? Have fun with it. I'll
10:02
Speaker 1: make them actually check the email. I'm not sure if
10:04
Speaker 1: he even knows what email is or how to use it.
10:07
Speaker 1: I set it up a little bit ago. I feel
10:08
Speaker 1: like he should. But if not, guys, spam his inbox.
10:12
Speaker 1: Not actual spam like all you bots and all that shit,
10:16
Speaker 1: but just spam them with you know, jokes, busting his balls,
10:19
Speaker 1: all sorts of stuff like that. So, as we mentioned,
10:22
Speaker 1: I think in the in the prior episode baseball it's offseason.
10:27
Speaker 1: You don't hear as much of it because football is
10:28
Speaker 1: ramping up, College basketball is coming up, NHL's in full swing,
10:32
Speaker 1: so you're not hearing a lot of stuff about baseball.
10:36
Speaker 1: But the Astros Red Sox cheaters. But if you're not cheating,
10:39
Speaker 1: you're not trying. The investigation is still in our way.
10:42
Speaker 1: I haven't heard anything official. When that does, we'll cover it. Astros,
10:46
Speaker 1: red Sox cheaters, Yankee suck, Fuck the Yankees. Sorry if
10:50
Speaker 1: you're a Yankees fan. Pirates, my poor poor pirates. Great
10:54
Speaker 1: new GM. I'm excited. Let's see how the rest of
10:56
Speaker 1: the pieces kind of fall in place. Let's go buckos.
11:00
Speaker 1: I know there's stocks of Marte and potential bell pretty much.
11:02
Speaker 1: Anybody's up for trades. I'd like to see Archer go.
11:05
Speaker 1: Nothing against you, just hasn't been a great fit. Hopefully
11:08
Speaker 1: we can get something for that. But yeah, a little baseball.
11:11
Speaker 1: We're a little ways away from that spring training many months.
11:14
Speaker 1: But when baseball starts coming back, the weather starts turning
11:17
Speaker 1: here gets me all pumped up. Hockey. Hockey's in full swing.
11:21
Speaker 1: Calgary's Calgary's coach is being looked into for allegations of racism.
11:28
Speaker 1: We'll see how that shakes out. Hopefully he is dumb
11:31
Speaker 1: enough to be racist to make racist re marks. Hopefully
11:35
Speaker 1: he gets what's coming to him, whether it be a
11:37
Speaker 1: fine or a suspension or fired. NHL Power rankings the
11:41
Speaker 1: one through thirty one pole they are out Islanders one,
11:44
Speaker 1: Boston two, Washington three, Saint Louis four, Edmonton five, Carolina six,
11:50
Speaker 1: Dallas seven, Arizona eight, Florida nine, Winnipeg ten, Colorado eleven.
11:56
Speaker 1: My Penguins come in at twelve. Twelve doesn't tear considering
12:00
Speaker 1: they played most of the beginning of the season without Melkin.
12:03
Speaker 1: Now Crosby's out for a while and they're still playing
12:06
Speaker 1: all right. I mean, they put up big numbers versus Toronto,
12:08
Speaker 1: a couple wins here, lost here or there, but overall,
12:11
Speaker 1: twelve not too terrible. You want to see the rest
12:13
Speaker 1: of the power rankings, check them out on ABC seven
12:17
Speaker 1: dot com. Last night, in NCAA basketball, there was a
12:20
Speaker 1: couple of crazy games I was watching. There wasn't a
12:22
Speaker 1: lot of action, but the action that was played was
12:25
Speaker 1: pretty awesome. Stephen F. Austin took down the number one
12:29
Speaker 1: Dukies in overtime. It seemed like any time Duke would
12:33
Speaker 1: make a run, they'd go up six eight, Steven F.
12:35
Speaker 1: Austin would chip away, they'd grind, they'd shut him down,
12:38
Speaker 1: they'd be down two. Duke would make another run, up
12:41
Speaker 1: six eight, they'd cut it to two or three, and
12:43
Speaker 1: then finally they take the lead, Duke comes back, back
12:46
Speaker 1: and forth, back and forth, overtime hits, and just the
12:48
Speaker 1: more experienced Steven F. Austin team into Cameron took down
12:53
Speaker 1: the number one team. Man. That's got to be a
12:55
Speaker 1: good feeling for them. Not going to be a great
12:57
Speaker 1: thank Skimven for the Dukies, doesn't break my mind. Get
13:00
Speaker 1: them on them stairs, get them playing. Unfortunately, loss like
13:03
Speaker 1: that is only going to probably make them better. In
13:06
Speaker 1: Michigan State, the number three team in the country also
13:09
Speaker 1: went down crazy. Very good for college basketball in my opinion,
13:13
Speaker 1: when these smaller schools can come in not only take
13:16
Speaker 1: them down, but take them down in their home court.
13:19
Speaker 1: Over the last couple of years, even in the NCAA tournaments,
13:21
Speaker 1: you're seeing these smaller programs making runs, you know, Sweet sixteen,
13:26
Speaker 1: Final four. It's just a great thing for basketball. It's
13:29
Speaker 1: a great thing for those schools getting extra recruits, and
13:32
Speaker 1: it just shows the programs that get the kids in
13:35
Speaker 1: that are going to stay three four years, buy into
13:37
Speaker 1: the program by the time they're in their junior season,
13:41
Speaker 1: junior or senior season. Teamwork is just phenomenal. They gel
13:46
Speaker 1: where you're getting a lot of these one and done
13:49
Speaker 1: players who are just extreme athletes. You got nothing against it,
13:53
Speaker 1: but my I really think that the NBA needs to say,
13:56
Speaker 1: you know what, how they're good enough to leave high school,
13:59
Speaker 1: like Kevin Garnett, let them go. Why make a college
14:03
Speaker 1: program have this one and done for one year? Maybe
14:06
Speaker 1: it hurts the game a little bit because you're not
14:08
Speaker 1: getting these stars, but nothing's guaranteed in life, and what
14:12
Speaker 1: is guaranteed. If these guys are that good, let them
14:15
Speaker 1: go to college. Let them make those millions, Let them
14:17
Speaker 1: pursue their career, you know, and something that they love,
14:20
Speaker 1: instead of potentially coming into a college program having their
14:24
Speaker 1: stock hurt because maybe they end up terrible, maybe they
14:27
Speaker 1: get hurt, whatever it is. I think that they should
14:30
Speaker 1: just let them go like it used to be. But
14:32
Speaker 1: either way, it's fun to see these guys in the
14:34
Speaker 1: college atmosphere playing at a high level. But it's got
14:37
Speaker 1: to be tough for these coaches to get all of
14:40
Speaker 1: these amazing athletes like Duku are getting top five recruit
14:43
Speaker 1: at every position every year. A lot of them stay
14:45
Speaker 1: for one year, so you're constantly trying to get these
14:48
Speaker 1: kids to gel Man. It would be it would be
14:51
Speaker 1: just absolutely amazing to be able to work even for
14:54
Speaker 1: an organization a quarter an eighth as cool as a
14:57
Speaker 1: powerhouse like that. Hell, it'd be awesome just even coaching
15:00
Speaker 1: at the D three level, you know what I mean?
15:02
Speaker 1: But yeah, big news in NCAA basketball, a couple of
15:06
Speaker 1: good games coming up this week. A slide over to
15:08
Speaker 1: college football. Top four rankings are out. Ohio State jumped
15:12
Speaker 1: LSU at one. Obviously, LSU at two, Clemson three, Georgia four.
15:16
Speaker 1: Not a lot of shakeup, but it was a surprising
15:18
Speaker 1: move with LSU not losing in Ohio State jumping over them.
15:22
Speaker 1: I'm not sure the NCAA Football Committee knows what the
15:25
Speaker 1: hell they're doing. It's nice that there's a playoffs. It's
15:28
Speaker 1: nice it's been going on for a couple of years,
15:29
Speaker 1: but it needs to be fixed. Add more teams, cut
15:33
Speaker 1: down some of those beginning games where unfortunately some of
15:36
Speaker 1: these small programs at college football just don't have a
15:39
Speaker 1: chance against these powerhouses. It's much different in football than
15:42
Speaker 1: in is basketball. We could debate this all night. We're
15:45
Speaker 1: not going to viewers. They're loving the shorter episodes. So
15:48
Speaker 1: that's the top four rankings. If your teams are on
15:51
Speaker 1: the outskirts, best of luck to them. Hopefully a couple
15:53
Speaker 1: of these teams lose. Never know, there's some big games
15:55
Speaker 1: coming up, conference championships coming up. We'll see how it
15:58
Speaker 1: shakes out. Now it's time for the NFL, a league
16:03
Speaker 1: that viewers and viewership is up. But I just have
16:07
Speaker 1: a very very struggle sitting through watching a lot of
16:11
Speaker 1: these games as of late because of all the replays,
16:15
Speaker 1: all the off field drama. Seems like people are more
16:18
Speaker 1: into the drama side sometimes of football. Bad publicity still publicity.
16:22
Speaker 1: I guess Lamar Jackson absolute beast sucks he's on Baltimore.
16:26
Speaker 1: Since I'm a Pittsburgh fan, guy's amazing to watch a
16:30
Speaker 1: lot of people hyping them up rightfully. So hopefully for
16:34
Speaker 1: his safe he stays healthy. And I've just heard so
16:37
Speaker 1: many podcast episodes and so many people talking football on
16:41
Speaker 1: how this guy's the greatest, he's always going to be
16:44
Speaker 1: the greatest, and you know, the whole Well, if he
16:46
Speaker 1: stays healthy in this and that. But on the one
16:48
Speaker 1: of the most intelligent points that I personally think was
16:53
Speaker 1: made with Tony Dungee on the Pat McAfee show when
16:55
Speaker 1: he kind of said, what's going to happen is what's
16:58
Speaker 1: going to kind of happen with that happened with our three.
17:00
Speaker 1: The NFL teams will go and speak with college programs,
17:05
Speaker 1: the powerhouses that Alabama's, the Clemsons, Ohio States, everything, and
17:08
Speaker 1: these NFL guys coordinators, defensive coordinators will come in and say, hey,
17:13
Speaker 1: how do you defend against this option? How do you
17:15
Speaker 1: defend against this? And then they're going to be able
17:18
Speaker 1: to adapt, come up with some new defensive schemes to
17:22
Speaker 1: actually counter what Baltimore's doing, because what Baltimore's doing is
17:26
Speaker 1: kind of like the wildcat. It's something so new that
17:29
Speaker 1: a lot of these teams don't know what the hell
17:30
Speaker 1: to do. Give him an off season, give him two
17:33
Speaker 1: off seasons. Maybe they'll figure it out, maybe they won't.
17:35
Speaker 1: The guy's amazing. He's got to chip on his shoulder
17:38
Speaker 1: seeing so many other quarterbacks get drafted above them. But
17:41
Speaker 1: one thing that I always thought was why not get
17:44
Speaker 1: drafted a little later. Yes, you're not going to get
17:46
Speaker 1: that good money, you're not going to get as much
17:48
Speaker 1: money out the gate, but you're going to get a
17:51
Speaker 1: chance to play for a better organization. The later you go,
17:54
Speaker 1: maybe you've got to sit out of here. But when
17:55
Speaker 1: it's your time, you're in a great, established organization. He
17:59
Speaker 1: felt Baltimore, the whole Flacco thing didn't work out. Obviously
18:04
Speaker 1: didn't even really work out in Denver for him. But
18:06
Speaker 1: he's playing for a team that has been good is
18:09
Speaker 1: probably always going to be good in the foreseeable future.
18:12
Speaker 1: He's got a great line, he's got a great defense,
18:14
Speaker 1: he's got running backs, he's got weapons. Where if you're
18:17
Speaker 1: a first overall, you're getting drafted first overall for a reason.
18:20
Speaker 1: You're on a terrible team that's gonna take years and
18:22
Speaker 1: years and years. You can take a Tom Brady and
18:25
Speaker 1: throw him on a Giants, throw him on an Arizona.
18:29
Speaker 1: He's not gonna have any luck. He doesn't have a line,
18:31
Speaker 1: he doesn't have weapons. These these young guys come in
18:34
Speaker 1: and they can kind of get shit on, like, oh
18:36
Speaker 1: he was a number one pick, what a fla if
18:37
Speaker 1: he didn't do shit? It's tough. Maybe it is because
18:40
Speaker 1: they don't adapt to the program. Maybe it's just because
18:43
Speaker 1: they need years to figure it out, and some of
18:45
Speaker 1: them do, some of them don't. Mar Jackson absolute beasts, unbelievable.
18:49
Speaker 1: He's gonna have a hell of a rating in Madden.
18:52
Speaker 1: But here are my Thanksgiving predictions. Three games as always,
18:56
Speaker 1: so amazing to be able to sit around watch football,
19:00
Speaker 1: drink beer, eat amazing food. How can you not like Thanksgiving?
19:03
Speaker 1: All right, here's my predictions. Chicago minus three. I think
19:06
Speaker 1: they're gonna take them down. I know they never say,
19:09
Speaker 1: they always say, don't bet against the Lions, don't bet
19:12
Speaker 1: against the Cowboys. Yeahda YadA, Yeah, I'm doing it. I'm
19:14
Speaker 1: doing it both. Chicago minus three. I think they're playing
19:17
Speaker 1: a little bit better. I think the Lions just are terrible.
19:22
Speaker 1: I'm gonna go Buffalo plus seven. I think seven's a lot.
19:25
Speaker 1: I think the Bills defense is great. Dallas, Yes, it's Thanksgiving. Yes,
19:29
Speaker 1: Jerry Jones getting flustered. Maybe the team rallies around, they
19:33
Speaker 1: get a win. But I think Buffalo is good enough
19:35
Speaker 1: to keep it close. Seven points a lot of points.
19:37
Speaker 1: So I'm gonna take Buffalo plus seven, and I'm gonna
19:40
Speaker 1: go New Orleans and minus seven. They got demolished at
19:43
Speaker 1: home VERSU Atlanta a couple of weeks ago. I think
19:46
Speaker 1: they're gonna come in. I think they're just gonna absolutely
19:49
Speaker 1: steamroll the Falcons on Thanksgiving. You're gonna watch Drew Brees
19:53
Speaker 1: or one of those guys get that turkey leg if
19:55
Speaker 1: they still do that. But yeah, those are my predictions.
19:57
Speaker 1: Chicago minus three, Buffalo plus seven, say Flip minus seven.
20:01
Speaker 1: That's going to wrap up Sports winner, and colder weather
20:06
Speaker 1: is about to hit most of us. I don't know
20:08
Speaker 1: about you, but that means more game nights. One of
20:10
Speaker 1: the newest and most fun games in the market right
20:12
Speaker 1: now is a current game called Knock Knock. Unlike a
20:14
Speaker 1: typical knock knock, this is no joke. What is knock Knock? Well,
20:18
Speaker 1: it's a fast paced competitive game for friends if fuuture enemies.
20:22
Speaker 1: Need to act fast to get cards out of your hand,
20:24
Speaker 1: full your opponents and defend against other players. But pay
20:27
Speaker 1: attention miss the slab speak when union or fail to
20:30
Speaker 1: copy your opponent, and you will add more cards to
20:32
Speaker 1: your hand. Be the first player to get rid of
20:34
Speaker 1: all of the cards, and you will be named the winner.

Speaker 1: So this is going to be the first time ever
21:18
Speaker 1: in Beard Laws podcast history for the new segment What's
21:22
Speaker 1: in My Beard. So this is going to be a
21:24
Speaker 1: segment where myself, Logan or any of the other staff
21:27
Speaker 1: members eat somewhere and we're going to talk about it.
21:29
Speaker 1: If the people that work in the restaurant, whether it's
21:32
Speaker 1: the employees, whether it's the manager, whether it's the cook,
21:35
Speaker 1: whether it's the waitress, whether it's a bartender, whatever it
21:37
Speaker 1: might be, if they want to interview and they want
21:39
Speaker 1: to talk about anything they want to say, well interview them.
21:42
Speaker 1: If not, we're going to give an honest feedback of
21:44
Speaker 1: what we thought about the food for the first time.
21:46
Speaker 1: For the first place somewhere that I ate differently with
21:50
Speaker 1: my kiddo is Soul Waffle in Potsdam, New York on
21:54
Speaker 1: fifty seven Market Street. So Waffle is a pretty cool concept.
21:57
Speaker 1: It's a waffle place. Obviously, it's just unique, different kinds
22:02
Speaker 1: of waffles. Some you'd expect. You got the classic, your
22:05
Speaker 1: buttermilk chocolate. Then I had, you know, your Belgian waffles
22:09
Speaker 1: with a little bit of twist, like a fluffer, nutter,
22:11
Speaker 1: fruity pebbles, oreos reses, and then it's just got some
22:14
Speaker 1: crazy stuff. My daughter went with the specialty waffle was
22:17
Speaker 1: a unicorn waffle that I believe was a buttermilk waffle.
22:20
Speaker 1: It had sprinkles, cotton candy, unicorn dust, whipped cream, a
22:25
Speaker 1: unicorn horn. She said it was okay. She didn't really
22:29
Speaker 1: like it. She's so used to homemade waffles, frozen waffles.
22:33
Speaker 1: Maybe that's on me that the waffle itself was okay,
22:36
Speaker 1: but it was just very very sweet for her, which
22:39
Speaker 1: is unique because most kids, I feel would love it.
22:41
Speaker 1: She didn't love it, but I went with I went
22:43
Speaker 1: with the hash brown Scramble. I went did a half order.
22:46
Speaker 1: I didn't know what to expect, but it was a
22:49
Speaker 1: waffle that was actually scrambled eggs with hash brown spinach
22:54
Speaker 1: and you know everything. It was obviously cooked on a
22:56
Speaker 1: waffle iron with shredded cheese and tomatoes, and my daughter
23:01
Speaker 1: absolutely loved it. So when she ended up eating most
23:04
Speaker 1: of that, I suffered through the unicorn waffle. The food
23:06
Speaker 1: was really good. I liked it. It wasn't a food
23:09
Speaker 1: that was hard to eat with a beard. It didn't
23:11
Speaker 1: get all in the beard. There wasn't just a huge mess.
23:14
Speaker 1: Just so many options. You guys can check them out
23:16
Speaker 1: at Soulwaffle dot com. They don't know I'm doing a review.
23:19
Speaker 1: This is not a sponsorship, This is not a pay thing.
23:21
Speaker 1: This is me wanting to give restaurants that maybe don't
23:26
Speaker 1: get a lot of love an honest review. You know,
23:28
Speaker 1: I go in, I will review them on Google Maps,
23:31
Speaker 1: Google Review, I give honest reviews. It's just something that
23:34
Speaker 1: I do. So I wanted to bring it to the podcast,
23:36
Speaker 1: just another thing to add, maybe, like I said, potential interviews,
23:39
Speaker 1: because sometimes people in the kitchen, people in a restaurant
23:42
Speaker 1: business don't always get a say. It's not like they
23:44
Speaker 1: can come out when you give a terrible review and
23:47
Speaker 1: just be a complete asshole to you. They have to
23:49
Speaker 1: remain calm, they have to remain proper polite. Maybe eventually
23:52
Speaker 1: they can get on the podcast give their side of
23:54
Speaker 1: the story. What happened there, Why was that review bad.
23:57
Speaker 1: Was it just bullshit? Was it a bot? Was it
23:59
Speaker 1: somebody that was just jealous of the idea something? You know,
24:03
Speaker 1: Let's get their takes. So, if you own a restaurant
24:06
Speaker 1: you want an honest review and you're somewhere near me,
24:08
Speaker 1: shoot me an email Matt at beard laws dot com
24:10
Speaker 1: or hit up Logan Logan at beard laws dot com.
24:13
Speaker 1: Let us know, Hey, we want you to come there.
24:15
Speaker 1: We want you to give an honest review, talk about it,
24:18
Speaker 1: talk to us. That'd be absolutely amazing. So, guys, I
24:21
Speaker 1: highly recommend Soulwaffle dot com. I know I'm going to
24:24
Speaker 1: go back. There's so many different things that I want
24:26
Speaker 1: to try. I mean, they got chicken waffles. The staff,
24:29
Speaker 1: it was one lady that was working. She was very
24:32
Speaker 1: nice to myself, she was very nice to my daughter.
24:34
Speaker 1: Prices were good. I highly recommend, Like I said, Soul Waffle.
24:38
Speaker 1: Can check them out online sowaffle dot com or you
24:40
Speaker 1: can check them out on fifty seven Market Street, Potsdam,
24:43
Speaker 1: New York. It is now time for beard news. As
24:46
Speaker 1: mentioned in an earlier podcast, the National Beer Championship, which
24:50
Speaker 1: took place in the Chicago area, was November eighth and ninth,
24:53
Speaker 1: a lot of websites are now coming out with pictures
24:56
Speaker 1: and reviews and articles from the competition, and I get
24:59
Speaker 1: to tell you, these beards are absolutely amazing. That's coming
25:01
Speaker 1: from a guy with a pretty nice beard himself. But
25:04
Speaker 1: I'm not on that level. Someday I hope to be.
25:06
Speaker 1: I'd love to take part in a competition. I'd actually
25:09
Speaker 1: love to interview some of these bearded dudes to kind
25:12
Speaker 1: of talk about their experience. I'm going to do some
25:14
Speaker 1: research on some of the winners. See if I can
25:16
Speaker 1: hit him up on social media, try to get him
25:17
Speaker 1: on the podcast, or if anybody out there is listening
25:20
Speaker 1: and know somebody that has partake, shoot me up, shoot
25:22
Speaker 1: me a message. Matt at beard laws dot com love
25:24
Speaker 1: to get in touch with them. So I'm going to
25:27
Speaker 1: link the article from seeinget dot com that has I
25:30
Speaker 1: think forty or fifty pictures. You guys can see them,
25:32
Speaker 1: so check them out over at beard laws dot com.
25:35
Speaker 1: There was over fifty categories, which is prettty crazy. I mean,
25:39
Speaker 1: just to name a few, just in the mustache part,
25:41
Speaker 1: you had your natural mustache, your styled handlebar mustache, your
25:46
Speaker 1: English mustache, which is a narrow, slender mustache, with the
25:49
Speaker 1: hairs extended outward from the middle of the upper lip.
25:52
Speaker 1: Then you had the Dolly mustache, and then a freestyle
25:55
Speaker 1: where you see all the crazy stuff. Thirty bucks to
25:57
Speaker 1: get into this. Then you had your partial beards, one
26:00
Speaker 1: of them, you know, from your goates to your fu manchues,
26:02
Speaker 1: to your musketeers, to your whalers, to you know, all
26:05
Speaker 1: sorts of freestyle. Then you had the full beards by
26:08
Speaker 1: length you know what I mean in the freestyle of course.
26:10
Speaker 1: And then you had Craft, which is for the ladies,
26:13
Speaker 1: so they could come in, you know, they could make
26:15
Speaker 1: their own beards. I believe it was just for ladies.
26:18
Speaker 1: If it wasn't just for ladies, I do apologize, but
26:20
Speaker 1: there was a bunch of craft ones as well. Fairly
26:23
Speaker 1: certain anyways that it was for that. But one thing
26:26
Speaker 1: that I thought was really cool is that they had
26:28
Speaker 1: some exhibition categories for people that you know, didn't have
26:32
Speaker 1: to go against some of the best beards in the nation.
26:35
Speaker 1: A couple of the categories were the Brewer's Beard, which
26:38
Speaker 1: is a beard grown by a beer maker. That's pretty amazing.
26:41
Speaker 1: Hence it was hosted by a brewery. Then you had
26:43
Speaker 1: the Veterans Beard, which was a beard of a retired
26:45
Speaker 1: or discharged US service member, God bless the troops. And
26:49
Speaker 1: one that I think is absolutely amazing is for the
26:51
Speaker 1: fastest growing facial hair in the five o'clock shadow category.
26:55
Speaker 1: So what they did is contestants shaved that morning and
26:57
Speaker 1: then they were judged by how much facial hair could
27:00
Speaker 1: be grown by five PM. So that's something you know,
27:03
Speaker 1: you want to check it out. You could enter in
27:05
Speaker 1: the exhibition category or anybody with an amazing beard or
27:08
Speaker 1: mustache or go tee. You got your chances to enter
27:12
Speaker 1: into the competition. I know there's a couple of other
27:14
Speaker 1: ones throughout the nation. Maybe you don't start with the
27:17
Speaker 1: nation one. Maybe you do, maybe you're just that good,
27:19
Speaker 1: but either way, check out the link onbeard laws dot
27:22
Speaker 1: com from the cnet dot com twenty nineteen National Beard

Speaker 1: a Mustage Championship. Their tagline for the article is pretty cool.
27:30
Speaker 1: Grow it, grease it, groove it. The official photographer for
27:33
Speaker 1: the event was Greg Anderson, and if I think of it,
27:36
Speaker 1: I will also link Greg's Facebook page that has kind
27:40
Speaker 1: of a different side of the pictures as well. Hey,
27:43
Speaker 1: I'm going to reach out to Greg Anderson and maybe
27:44
Speaker 1: see if he wants to be a part of the
27:45
Speaker 1: podcast for a couple of minutes. All right, this concludes
27:48
