Episode Date: January 14, 2026

Al's Brother joined OverDrive to discuss the headlines leading up to the NFL divisional round, the leans for the games, Hayes, Bro and O's start to the playoffs, getting married on the program and more.

How's brother. You go away. Great to see you. You go away for a week and a half, and all of a sudden, all hell is breaking loose here. There it is. That's John Lennon and solo. What do you have to say for yourself? Housebrother, first of all, before we talk about the football, what about the cruise?

Like the fiancé, how are you guys jelling and cruising together? Yeah. Very well, O'Dok. Thank you for asking. fantastic time together and we didn't lose the ring. That was the thing that we were a little worried about was like, what if we lose that ring on vacation? Because you're in the beach, right?

You're at the beach. You're in the water. You're walking around. I don't know. It was a bit of a nerve-wracking thing, but we made it home without a fight. We made it home with the ring. All is well. All is well, boys.

It was a fantastic vacation. Love hearing that. Do you want to address noodles accusations that we have a Yoko Ono situation on our hands? It's not. That's fake news. First and foremost, I should show as much love as I can to your wonderful fiancé. I've never met her. I can't wait.

But I did love throwing a little wrench into the conversation because I felt like you guys had an amazing regular season. So you were like the Beatles. And then all of a sudden, there was one thing that broke the Beatles up. And it was love. That's right. And it was A.B. Falls in Love and brings in Yoko Ono. And all of a sudden there's some turmoil. I'm in the corner.

I'm in the corner. You know, the white albums just waiting for us, your house, brother. You know, we've got to get cooking here, man. It's my bad. I thought we were going to get a by-week. Most first-place teams get a buy-week through the first round when we talk about football. Last I checked, I thought we were going to have a buy-week. So I set up my vacation with my beautiful fiancé.

Turns out that Doogie doesn't like to play by those normal rules, and we had to play. But it was already booked. And I'm like, you know, I gave as much information as I. I could. I had a couple liens that some people went away from that may have turned out to be better for us. I'm not going to throw some others under the bus. But I'm locked in this weekend, though, boys. I've been back on land for about 48 hours now-ish, 50, 60 hours, and I've watched maybe 53 hours of football while on land. So I'm ready to make picks this weekend. I feel really good this weekend about the slate of games coming up here. So let me just ask you this, how's brother.

Like, as opposed to a lean, like, who are you, like, all in on? Like, I love some of my thoughts and decisions about upcoming games. Is there one or two that you love? I do love the Rams this weekend. Like, if I had to pick one game that I felt mostly strong about, I think it would be the Rams. Like, Chicago, they've been the cardiac bears, but against a good team and a solid, you know, coaching foundation like the Rams.

Dude, what do you think the Packers and Matt LaFleurr are? Yeah, they're a joke artist, obviously. But like McVeigh has shown that he's been able to come up big. And when that team's leading in the second half of football games, they don't lose. Like, they just don't. You know, so I have more belief in the Rams and Matt Stafford that they'll bounce back and have a big game this weekend against the bear. So that's one that I would say I've got a decent lean on.

in terms of the other games, like they're tough. They are tough, and there's some infighting between us and which ones considered easy games, difficult games. I'm not so sure that we see many blowouts here, and that's where I think we got a bit of an issue with our picks here. Well, you answer your own question. What is your one can't miss? I know it's coming decision this weekend.

I already told you. I got two. Seattle, Big, and Denver. Big. Seattle is going to mash Sam, Fran. Okay, is that you can only pick one, though. You put Al's brother on the spot. He didn't give you four.

Look, Hayes, you know damn well that I can send you a text the morning of these games, and we could have a little bit of side action for fun, okay? Yeah. So I don't want to interrupt anything that, like you guys, you guys are the founding members of HBO, and I don't want to interrupt. I just have some gut instinct stuff. Okay. That could be just throwing garbage against the wall.

If it gets to a point where I delegate Alice Brother, I want you to give me a pick. Oh, I want you to give me a pick. You can't have to make a decision. It can't be I like both of these, you know, because then you're telling me to make the pick. And, you know, I might put you guys on the spot here. You know, I think Alice Brother feels sharp. He feels rested. He looks good.

He's feeling good. Oh, you know, I kind of like where your head's at in some ways and I kind of don't in other ways. so luckily for us we have two days to figure this out we've got two days I don't want to answer right now but I have some deep deeply strong feelings about certain things okay all right yeah sounds good all right else brother darn out the postseason just scares me doesn't it yes like riding that guy in the playoffs I mean we saw what he did last year

dude sometimes you got to turn a corner sometimes you got to turn a corner on Sammy Donald before we go out's brother I just wanted to touch on one other thing what about you getting married on overdrive? Does the fiancé say yes or no? There's a, that's, that's, that's a conversation we still need to have. It's a conversation we still need to have, but it's not been ruled out yet. And that's the best I can give you. It has not been ruled out.

Not saying no. Not saying no, not saying yes, but not saying no. Either one of us three will get certified and be the priest. Yes. The officiant. Yeah. The officiant. The justice of the peace.

Justice of the peace. Yes. I see that in our future. I could see A.B. saying, all right, even if your lovely fiancé did, the parents would be like, absolutely not. The parents from both sides would be like, are you insane? You never know. Maybe.

It could be one of the largest operations ever. This is like a royal wedding. Dude, we rent out Studio 6, we moved the panels, and we put chairs in there. TV's there, CP2-4, Omar Satchadina with a, like, sitting there eating. Can you imagine like the royal wedding, Omar standing there on the sidelines,
