Hello and welcome to another piece of regulation content. This one's a supplemental. It is a draft. It is a food-based draft today. We are doing the four-course meal draft. I believe Gavin gave us this idea in Vegas, and we all jumped at the chance to do it, so we're very excited.

Gavin, what were you thinking when you came up with this idea? What was the genesis behind this idea? Well, considering I didn't really understand this idea, which was not my idea. I don't think I'm in any position to explain it. Magnanimous and humble at all times. Thank you so much for a career, Gavin. I thank you.

Yeah, I really appreciate it. Yet again, cannot thank you enough. What do you guys think we should randomize this one for? Four, four? Four? Yeah, either four or six. Yeah, either four or six. Because I knew it wasn't going to be as simple as that.

Go ahead. It's either four or 16. Either or. And why 16? Why would it be 16? Because 20. what and why would that be four for each of us

I was thinking four by four okay I definitely could follow exactly where your head went I went that's not right no that's not right at all no I went there's three of you and there's a four course meal

16 and then I went I'm part of this as well never mind 20 unfortunately you are part of this every draft is 20 thoughts I have none I'm looking at my menu

I have time for this Oh my God Okay, so what are we Do we draft four? Is it four? Let's do four. Yeah, we're doing four. All right.

Well, as always, we're using Sean Bear's site. Thank you very much. Sean Bear. This makes it so easy for us and we can randomize as many times we want. It starts in an egg order and now we will randomize four times.

One, two, three, Gavin, Andrew, Eric, Jeff, Nick, but the fourth, and final randomization. Boom, Jeff, Gavin. Jeff, back to back ones. Boys, you have no idea how exciting this is. As, as me and Jeff were here today, I said, Jeff, how are you feeling about these drafts?

And he said, you know what, Emily didn't love my one-hit wonders picks, but that's okay, I really feel good about him. And I said, that's great. How about the four-course meal draft? How are you feeling about that? And he said, well, I'm not sure. I guess I'll do it based on what you guys draft. And then I said, Jeff, what if you go first?

And Jeff said, don't worry, I never go first. And now we begin the four-course meal draft with Jeff Ramsey. Okay, for my first pick, obviously in a fourth-course meal, you want to start with the appetizer, which is where I'm going to take us. When I said to eat a four-course meal, the first thing I want to have is a little bit of bread, but maybe some tang too. So I'm going to go with the item that I have been planning on for weeks in this draft because clearly I came in prepared.

Bruchetta. Oh, brichetta. A little bit of brichetta, a little tomato, a little drizzle. Did you say tang? What is it about the bruchetta that you're feeling particular about? Oh, I love the cheese mixed with the warm crust of the bread, with the little cut up, diced up tomatoes on top. Sometimes there's some parsley as well, which is delicious.

And then like a little olive and vinegar spread over the top. It's just, it's tangy, it's delicious, it's crunchy, it warms your little tummy. And you've been planning on that for weeks now. Oh, my God, since Gavin gave us the idea, I think I immediately went down and started riding. Fuck. Also, not cool to be on the end when you don't have anything planned. We get two in a row. Yeah.

This is pretty good. Gavin, you have the second pick. As Jeff has set the tempo, you now can do anything you want based on what Jeff has done. Well, bread is amazing. I just didn't consider that it might be a course because I feel like you can keep bread going through multiple courses, more of a side thing for me.

So I want to sit down and stuff my fat face with a lovely prawn cocktail. Oh. And I want it to be. be in that format, hanging over the thing, a bit of that red, spicy-ish sauce, and I don't want the tiny little shrimp-y ones. I want just fat old prawns.

Yeah, big ones. Big old. Nick said cocktail sauce, and then you didn't say anything? Oh, sorry. Yeah, yeah, that was, you were both talking at the same time. Oh. Nope. I don't think so.

That's how I'm on Discord. I'm with Gavin. That's how it came across for us. Oh, no. Dude, this internet maybe sucks. No, I think you just should shut up a little bit. and then nobody nobody was talking and then nick talked you were talking definitely wasn't cocktail sauce you know hey cocktail sauce yes cocktail sauce it was my condiment

it was excellent i was just thinking about that yeah it'd be disgusting to the spore the spill your prawn cocktail over the brachetta just ruin it for everybody nobody wants that i'll like these picks so far all right well uh we go to mine next and uh I had a lot of choices. I think appetizer is really important in everything. But it's all about what you want in your own four-course meal. And for me, that's Coors Banquet. Crack a couple of yellow cans.

Fill up a little bit before you really get started. Beautiful. From the streams of Golden Colorado comes Coors Banquet. The beer that my neighbor Larry growing up. would drink tons of and just throw in his backyard just Gavin style finish it boom throw it in the backyard that's where it goes see the cans pile up uh but that is my that's my appetizer you come over check it out boom Coors banquet i'm really liking these i'm visualizing walking into a restaurant and this being what i'm graded with so far in this yeah it's a good it's a good meal for me

nick uh Coors banquet's my pick i sorry if that stepped on yours but go I'm afraid I'm going to have to pivot. No, this is actually, I came into this with just one thing in mind. So if this got taken, I was totally screwed. Nick told me he has no backups if someone picks by accident, something that he picked, he's fucked. He's fucked. Royally and utterly fucked. But we've talked about it, right?

It's the opening course. It's the appetizer the hors d'oeuvre, if you will. There's not quite an hors d'oeuvre like this one, and I'm going with a bloomin onion. Oh. Blumen onion. The blooming onion. That's a good one. That's a really good one.

That's a really good one. This is a, colorically an insane meal. I don't think I'd want to eat anything else after that. No, that would be it. Gavin, you share it.

You don't eat the whole thing yourself. It's for the table. Why did Emily and Meg and I go get a blooming onion together without you recently? What was the deal there? What? Where were we? Oh, maybe because I don't want to eat that.

I don't know. I thought they would have gone just to hang out. Oh, is that why? I mean, it's fine. like you have one or two little nibs and it's like, okay, I'm done with it. Can I speculate that maybe it was during a Labubu hunt? It was not. It was before the Lubuos. But if it was during a Labibu Hunt, Gavin would have been there because he was at the last LaBoo Booboo Hunt hanging out with all of us. I sat on a little camping chair. Pretty impressive. Blumen Onion. Good pick

right there. Thank you. But now we go over to Andrew. I'm excited. Who will have his first course, but he'll also have his second course. Andrew, what are you going to? with first and second serving it up for the people this is going to look like this is my one and two going into this but this is going to feel like i'm really taking some nick energy here i'm going to open once again with another thing in the bread family it's my favorite bread type thing to receive when going to a place i want a nice fakasha with some balsamic vinegar and olive oil you can dip it you mix it around it's the saltiness it's delicious So that is what I'm opening with for my first dish.

And that's another bread course. That's another bread course. Gavin, how do you feel about that? I mean, once again, delicious. I just don't think I would order that for a... So I'm sort of envisioning my thing being from the moment you sit down until you leave. So you're immediately, you're hit with the bread.

Also, I've never seen a bruchetta, my thing, as a side. It's always an appetizer at Italian response. That's true. Yeah. Yeah, that's never, like, just on the table as you sit down. But that could still be an hors d'oeuv. Could, but now we're moving to my appetizer. I'm building a little bit of the theme.

And for my appi, this is, you've looked at the menu now, you're evaluating. I love, open it up, everyone can share, plate of bacon, barbecue-wrapped pronts. Delicious. So good. Double prongs. That crunch. You get the pronts. A delicious prawn, some barbecue sauce on there, get the tang.

It's delicious. Now, do they say prawn in Canada, or do they say shrimp? You hear both. Okay. I don't think there's a wrong answer, but prong is shrimp? We're about to have a lot of fun on this show, folks. Nick, what did you think a prawn was? It's like a big shrimp, right?

Yeah, that is a shrimp. I think that the exact same creature. I feel like in England, I always heard shrimp when it was like the tiny ones and you get like 40 of them. And then their prawn would be like, you're, you're dealing with them individually. America's fucking up. What did you think, what did you think it was? Seafood? Right, but what is?

That's right. Scampy. Wait, no, that's a type. Damn it, hold on. Think about it. What, what is a prawn to you? Seafood words? What's the animal, though?

Sea bug? Yes. I mean, I agree with that. Yeah, it is a sea bug. You wouldn't look down into the sea, it'd be like, oh, it's a school of scampy. Look at the scampy scamper. Look at all that dinner down there. Oh, wow.

To me, it's like when you see a shrimp, that's a Peter Dinklage, but when you see a prawn, that's of the rock. It's just a healthier version of the same thing. I like that. Nick is saying okay, and like we're like, we're painting this picture for him now. I'm not asking about now. I'm asking about before. Like, what was... What's the thing that's round

that they make, that's seafood? Scallops? Yeah, yeah, I was like, maybe it's a scallop. See, I can't fuck with those. I'm allergic to scallops, but I love prongs. How is the prawn or a shrimp related to a scallop? Yeah, what did you think a scallop was? In your head, the shrimp was the scallop or the prawn was a scallop?

The prawn. You thought the prawn was a scallop? Oh, I thought maybe it was like it. I don't know. Have you heard of King Prorn? No, what's that? It's a big ass shrimp, dude. It's the biggest shrimp you ever seen in your life.

Why the fuck don't we call it prawns here? I had some in Australia once and it was too much for me. I couldn't take it. We could have golf prawns? We call them golf shrimp, but they're huge. Yeah, yeah, I guess so. I think it's just, I just, I think that Andrew's assessment is correct that a prawn is like a large version of a shrimp. I just in America, I feel like we just refer to everything as shrimp.

Maybe it's like a different class of the same species or something. Okay. I don't even think it's a class thing. I think it's, like, what you guys are saying is right. The smallest shrimp, the biggest prawn. But Nick didn't know that, but he also didn't know what it was to begin with. Can I be vulnerable for a minute, a minute and reveal a irrational fear? Whenever I give out a food allergy I have, I get nervous internally because I feel like I'm setting somebody up for a silent assassin and hit man.

I'm just teeing them up. I'm giving them my weaknesses. How many food allergies do you have? Three or four. You got milk. Milk, corn, salmon, and scallops. Whoa, two sea things? You're allergic to all the same shit my dog is.

Me and Albert. I can come over and give you shots every 10 days. Well, those are my picks. I'm happy with my board so far. Well, there you go. Well, Nick, you have the next pick in your four-course meal draft. Well, I've seen that the second course is typically a soup or a set. salad. So I left it for a salad in this instance. And I went with a classic blue cheese wedge

side salad to start this meal off. When you open with blue, I thought you were doing another bloom. I thought we were like getting blooming cheese or something. Ooh, now that we're talking, though. A blue cheese wedge salad. That's right. D-D-daba-B-B-L-U-E-E- or EU. I think it's EU. I thought so too and then my auto correct changed it to this so I'm really not sure but there you go anyway, great pick

I think that's a really good pick. I love I think a wedge salad is nice I think having everything on it like that is top of you guys? You guys salad guys or no? I disagree with that big time. I love salad. Okay that's what I wanted to hear. Gavin

what's up with that? The wedge is just too much lettuce. The ratio is off Are you looking at this picture here, Gavin? You can make that last. The picture with the New Zealand flag by it, or Australia, whatever that is. Yeah, that one. That's a shitload of lettuce. It's a shitload of sauce.

Sauce? Dressing, whatever, man. Come on. Prawn. I'm just looking for a condiment. That's a shitload of pedantic. Are you saying the problem is it's too much to eat? Yeah, it's just too much lettuce to eat.

Oh. He's just saying that wedge salad's too big. You do realize there are size portions, though? Like, this isn't, you could get a size. I just mean in the ratios of the lettuce to everything else, it's, like, really high. In Gav's defense, I would say I think the wedge salad is typically way too much. Overindexes on lettuce compared to other salads and is always comically big. That's fair, I suppose.

Like, anytime I go to a steak restaurant and I see one. His first pick was blooming onion. It's already huge. So we're going with, like, I think Nick's just picking big meal stuff. Yeah, Nick is picking Nick portion. Yeah, 100%. Yeah, there's monkey money in here. He's going crazy.

We're going big and then going home. I'm not going home for a long time. Well, there you go. Nick's pick is the blue cheese wedge salad. I maybe went in a different direction from you guys, but that's fine. My four-course meal, my next up, I want like a little appetizery kind of thing,

but something that's like, you're right, because it is soup salad. So I need something that's going to fill you up just a little bit after the appetizer. We're going to the French fry. That is, that specifically, top-notch french fries right there. Those are the ones that I'm eating.

That's what I'm serving. That's my four course right here. Crack open a Coors Banquet. Sit down. You're having a couple of sips. And I go, are you ready for your next course? And you can go, I'm still working on the first. And I go, don't worry about it.

And then I just put down a plate of french fries in front of you. Incredible, incredible second course for you to be working on my four course meal draft. Thoughts on French fries? Well, which course are you ordering from in the menu? Because it can't be on the sides, surely. Right. This is the salad portion. I'm not sure what confusion is, soup, Coors Banquet, salad, French fry.

Okay. I'm not sure with the confusion. I think it makes perfect sense. Hey, don't, it's his perfect meal. That's right. Who are we to judge? It's his pork horse meal, yeah, we can't. Who are we to judge?

That's what we do, isn't it? Yeah, I mean, judge it, judge it all you want. Just know, like Andrew said earlier. I'm right. There is a vibe to Eric's board that I really. like. Yeah. Yeah, it's probably like divorced dad, but I do like it. I think Eric's four courses so far he could eat leaning on a counter. Oh, yeah. That's mostly how I eat. That's mostly how I eat my meals. Do you not eat leaning on a counter? I could do that with mine. What are you

talking about? What are you sitting like a bitch? Yeah, I guess, uh, what I think, prawn cocktail. I'm never just, like, leading. You sitting like a bitch? Oh, man. Well, French fries is in the draft, and now we go to Gavin. Let's see where he's going in his four-course meal draft. To be honest, once I'm done with my start, I just want to get tucked in.

I'm going to get tucked in. What? I want to get tucked in. Time to tuck Gavin in. I want to go to sleep and get in bed. No, I'm going to just get started on the main. My second course, Meat. Okay, so are we saying steak? If you want to be specific, that's a bone in filet with pepper corn sauce.

Okay. Okay. And I just find that to be delicious. Or a fillet is, I would say. So you had a specific thing in mind, but you just described it as meat was the move? He just wanted to block everybody else from doing meat. Just want everyone to shut the fuck up and point out that there's French fries on that plate. Yeah, that's true.

Yeah, it can come with the side. Perfect company. I mean, I'm not arguing with you. It's fine. I think he clearly went to your place, Eric, and he brought that with him. Exactly. Yeah. He grabbed all my french fries and then sat down and started eating his bone-in-flay.

I've reached over to the counter. You were hosting a very specific bring-your-own steak event. You provided the fries in the course bank, I provide all the french fries. I mean, the main course can come with sides still, right? Yeah, it's a side. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Incredible. Incredible.

It is on the side. maybe add with fries that is a really bad deal with fries then to do a split of steak and fries and have one person cover all the steak expenses and the other one is on fries i got the fries guys don't worry about it well Gavin uh with the bone and fillet with peppercorn sauce with fries uh with his second pick but now that jeff has had some time to come up with his next three we're going to see what his next two are oh i'm way ahead of you have the second course and the third course here. I'm way I'm all the, don't worry, I got the second course

on lockdown. Right, right, right. You had plenty of time to come up with it. Right, right. I got plenty of time between second and third course to figure that out. The second course for me, I'm going in the same vein as Gavin because I need to, well, there's a very specific structure to how I want to work this. And so I got to go straight from my main as well. And similarly to Gavin, I'm going bovine.

But I'm going with the ultimate cut of beef, the best of the bunch. It doesn't get any better than a perfectly cooked prime rib. Prime rib, good pick. Are you a prime rib guy, Jeff? Yeah, I love to cook it.

I love to eat it. I'd eat it as food, and I enjoy it. Andrew, you ever had prime rib? I don't think, not with the bone, certainly. Yeah, I haven't either. You've never had prime rib? No, I've had it. I've never had with the bone.

With the bone, yeah, I've had prime rib, just never with the bone. Like they slice off some for you, though, right? But how am I supposed to hold it? that's a joke I saw the look on your face I was stunned I was stunned he said it

I was stunned I didn't know what to say well Prime rib has made the list that's Jeff's second course but because of snake draft Jeff gets the third course first

so Jeff where are you going next exactly as I wanted I get the third course first this is how I planned it is how I conceived the whole year I my heart tells me to go mashed potato as a side but I'm looking at my meal and I'm trying to make a complete meal here and I feel like there's not enough greenery on my plate you know I just have some tomato in the brachetta really and and just the tiniest bit of parsley so I just I don't want to I know I'm a meat and potatoes kind of guy but I'm also a meat and Brussels sprouts kind of guy and so I'm going crispy Brussels sprouts okay I like that as my as my third course you ordered it when we went to when we went out for steak. At our steak dinner, I ordered Krispy Bustle sprouts.

They were good. I love, I love a Brussels sprout in this film. Fantastic. Why are you laughing, Gavin? This is a course, that's insane. Yeah, I will say. It's a side. Yeah, I think it's great.

It's a side, exactly. That's what I'm ordering. This is my side meet. This is my side course. It could be with your course. That's one thing. Jeff, Jeff, don't listen to these fools. How can it be a part of my main course?

I think it's a great pick. I think it's a great pick, Jeff. What the fuck are you talking about? Fantastic pick. And also... Oh, I'm going to pick these nine things and make them one course. That's not how it works, dude.

That is how it works. Yeah, it's a course. It's a course. It's a course. It's a course. It's a course item meal. You're a four item meal. Oh, yeah?

It's not possible. The worst things you can be golf. Oh, yeah? Before we move away from Brussels Sprout, I just want to say, Jeff, you make a delicious grilled brussel sprout. I've never had a better one

than the Brussels sprouts. I had made by you. What? Thank you very much, Andrew. What year? I'm sorry, what year was that? 2016? 2015?

Okay. Andrew actually knew me when I was a better cook. I used to cook a hell of a lot more than I do now. That's what I was going to ask is do you think you've improved because I'd love for you

to take another crack at it. Oh, I cook Brussels sprouts all the time, but I'm not as good as I used to be, but I would like, I cook them. Every time I cook a steak, I cook Brussels sprouts. Dang.

Anytime I see Brussels I think they won't be as good as Jeff's and they've never been. Jess, best Russell Spouts I've ever had. The kindest thing you've ever said to me. Delicious. Um, well, now that Gavin's done, sniping at Jeff, he has the next pick, his third course here in the four-course meal draft. Thinking about it?

Gavin? Giving yourself a little bit of a reboot? Well, I want to make sure that we don't talk at the same time. So we're going to give Gavin all the space in the world to say what he has to say. Cocktail sauce. he's going with a cocktail prawn for his third pick for me I'm after my main

you know after I've got some meat and fries down my neck I want I want dessert that's next for me I'm having a little chocolate fondue dipping stuff in melted chocolate delicious bit of fruit in there perfect that's dessert take me to the melting pot

that is my dessert chocolate fondue I would have it like a you know one of the actively hot pots, though, and not just, like, in a bowl. Oh. You big fondue guy? I don't mind it.

I don't think I've ever had fondue. Jeff, any thoughts on chocolate fondue? I mean, I'm not crazy about it. I think it's a weird way to defend it by saying, do you like it? And have you go, I'm not mad at it. I don't hate it. It's like a whole meal? I could, you know, give or take the rest? But the dessert's wicked.

Now, is the fondue at the table, or do you have a fondue fountain in this place? that you have to go to. If someone wheeled out like a currently running chocolate fountain, that would be incredible. That would be such a cool move, a restaurant where you could order fondue

for the restaurant. Like they just wheel it out and it's anyone's welcome to just get some fondue going. Next round's on me. You know, going for the dessert like right here. Interesting.

Very curious to see where Gavin goes with his fourth course. Oh, I think I know where he's going. Gavin's fourth course is going to be a McDonald's cheeseburger on his way home from the restaurant because he was still home. Yeah, no kidding.

Yep. And speaking of, Andrew, I think that's a very interesting point. Oh, God. Because my pick is next, and it's two or three hamburgers. So is that... I love that it's top notch.

Yep. Is that total for the party, or is it how many your each person is? No, per person. Yeah, yeah, per person. You're allowed to have like two or three hamburgers. This is... You might...

You can have one if you want, but just know, you're able to have like, you have like two or three hamburgers. This draft is making me realize how much I hang out with Gavin's wife without Gavin. I just went to top notch with Meg like three days ago. I couldn't go because I was editing the gumpler. Man. I was just at that restaurant with you're like.

That's really sucked. That is really sucked. Eric is just taking me deeper into the divorce dad territory of, We're at his place. He's got the cores, putting some French fries in the oven. The George Foreman Grill is on the counter ready to go. Listen, I think that it's important that everyone get what they want. And two or three hamburgers is what I want.

So I hope you want that also. If your fourth course isn't a store-bought dessert, I'm going to be very disappointed. I mean, you'll have to wait and see. You ever go by a whole birthday cake from Avons? You're about to see something. But before we get to my fourth course, we have to get to Nick's third, Nick. That's right.

What's your third course? Well, this is the main course, which is the main course. The, you know, the main dish. And of course, you get a couple sides with that. And in this instance, I'm going to go with a rib-eye, a loaded baked potato, and some... Some... Starting to see kind of what Nick...

Nick's ideal meal is just at one place where he could go right now if he wanted. What do you mean? Something I make at home Nick's ideal meal is the buffet at Golden Corral Nick's idea Hey It's just out of look at that Yeah look at that lower right hand corner

That cutting board What do you mean? Look at the inside of Nick here I have an extensive collection of cutting boards Yeah Okay what am I listing this as Nick? Ribai with fully loaded big potato

Just Big Potato Oh no And broccoli And broccoli And forget It's not enough room to autopsy that potato

on that plate, though, like your wife did. No. You can't flay it like Ramsey Bolton. She would put that steak on Nick's plate and then do her whole potato thing. Were you there?

All right, well, I'm really getting a look at the inside of Nick, but it's something that I already knew and sort of what I expected. It's fucking greasy and full of cholesterol. Yeah, it's exactly what I thought it would be. Are you my doctor? But Andrew, you get the last pick of the third course, but you also get the first final course.

So how are you going to kick off your third course here? I'm trying to decide if I could be so bold as to claim a vegetable medley as part of my dish. But I feel like that. Yeah? That's a yeah by you? I feel like that's like eight picks and one. Okay.

Well, then I am going to go with a, chicken parmesan with twice baked potato and vegetable medley that is my main so what was the issue what was the fear with the vegetable medley that it couldn't be a part of it because i'm technically taking broccoli and carrots and like he's taking the produce aisle green bean i'm taking a bunch yeah it's a lot it's a lot of things yeah but it's all it's all baked into a small enough portion to be one thing sure that's fair i just from this point you know like i've been taking very specific items but i see you going with the ribine fully baked and Gavin with the fillet

whatever pepper corn with fries so I'm going to add a few to mine as well as the main that is my main dish it's a course it's a course nice great that's a lot going on too with the chicken parm

that's a you got a whole meal going on right there I sure do you yep yeah pretty pretty heavy stuff but stuff that stuff that looks pretty good now Andrew that's a that's a lot you're stacked up on your three

courses how you're rounding us out here There's a lot of different ways you can go at dessert. I'm not the biggest dessert fan. So it's tough. It's difficult because when I lean dessert, I typically go with like a pie, but I don't feel like that's fitting. So I am going to draft as part of my theme, a space cake. What's a space cake? I think it's a cake with weed in it from what I'm Googling.

I googled space cake. It says belonging to a group of cannabis and feast edibles. So I bought the space cake thinking it's a goofy name. Everybody's getting high. I didn't know. I'm not aware of what's going on. We're just really, we're topping out this experience in an unexpected way.

And that concludes my theme. Hey, hey, I've never been blindsided. I've never been blindsided before. Let me detail. That was a front side blindside. So this is what I'm thinking with.

my thing. I kind of got a thing going here where the bread, bread is just there. As Gavin said, it is, you show up, but it's there, but I feel like it's a key part. I wanted to make sure I have it. From that point on, we went from the sea with the barbecue bacon wrap prawn. Then we got a bird, as well as with the potato, something from the earth, something from the ground. So we concluded this four course experience going to outer space with the space cake. Everybody's getting high off the cake. I wanted to cover multiple layers. I wanted sea. I wanted ground. I wanted air. And now we're in space to round out this fourth course. Are you the Winston Churchill of four

course meals? I sure I am Nick and I'm glad you're finally seeing it. Really incredible. Wow. All the elements are present in Andrew's. Absolutely. Andrew brings the heart. That's the food pyramid. Of course. Well, Andrews rounded out his four courses here. Very interesting. And now it's time for Nick to take us down under and let us know what his fourth course is. Oh, it's funny. You should mention that because I, uh, dessert, one of my favorite things.

I love dessert. Chocolate cake. Uh-huh. Excellent pick. I love chocolate cake. But specifically this type of chocolate cake, which is, of course, the chocolate thunder from down under. Is that cake? Yeah.

It's a brownie, actually. with a bunch of ice cream and then whipped cream with like fudgey it looks like the brownie is the least of it Nick once you get a slice of my space cake you can call whatever you want it's all fine we're all good listen am I call is this is chocolate thunder down under is that what it's called from Dan under

okay okay I think by the dessert on Nick's plate I'm like 6,000 calories in I mean at least my favorite kind of cake is this brownie with ice cream on it listen cake is brownie brownie can be cake If a shrimp had Nick's four-course meal, it would be a prawn by the end of the dinner. It's bulk it up.

Oh, man. Well, Nick really rounded it out there. I'm pretty impressed. He really, he stayed in one lane and he did a great job. Roll me home, baby. He loves it so much, too. Like, everything he picked, he would be so excited for. Well, I've had a, like, an appetizer.

There's like a soup salad kind of situation. and then we got the main course and I you're full you're stuffed you're like oh I've been I keep having I've had about six or seven appetizers with my salad and and my main course so you're really feeling full so it's time for an appertief to sort of round yeah to round this out and there's only one appertief for me and that's Coors light to round this thing out you don't want something too heavy you don't want something that's going to weigh you down you've already had a pretty filling. meal, and now it's just time to, you know, crack a cold one. The mountains are blue and have a nice time with your friends as you wind down the evening and celebrate responsibly. Can you imagine taking someone on a date to a fancy restaurant and the four courses of what Eric picked and each one comes out with like a little closh? Hey, he gets, it's how he got, who said anything?

Who said anything about a fancy restaurant? This is a four course meal draft, baby. Yeah. That's homemade. I would just love to see that happen at a restaurant. And now I'd love to see the woman's reaction. I mean, the dude's married, so it clearly worked. It worked, maybe.

Yep. Hey, the only banquet we need is Coors Banquet. Guys, those are my four courses. Eric's restaurant, coincidentally, is a place that his parents live above. It's just... Right. They do, but they don't own it. Some call it a suite.

Some call it a restaurant. I don't know. That's right. I call it the downstairs neighbor's house. His name is Dave, and we hang in. out. Those are my four courses, but it's time for Gavin to round us out with his fourth and final course, this four course meal draft. My fourth and final course is a two-stage course. I want two things from this. So it's a five-course meal, okay? Well, you know, let's see, let's see what you

think. What I want is the check and a lovely cup of tea at home, and that's course four. I'm going to say, yeah. I'm going to say, I'm going to agree. with this. Go for it, man. Yeah, no, I'm all for this because now I know that Gavin will lose this draft. No matter, it's a fan love for this guy. What a dump of a final course on a fantastic meal that he could have had. I'd like to change the answer. Nope, no, no, no, no, no, you're good.

Your hand is already written. And then I'd like everyone to check it out because cheeseburger is on the check, which is the thing that I have. And so that's fine. It's not a big deal. Hey, I'm paying your check. Hey, hey, you come, you come eat at my restaurant, guys. Gavin picks up again.

All right, Gavin, maybe you can save it. Maybe you can save it. What kind of tea? No, he can't. Oh, it's, oh, gray. There's no saving it. Solid tea. Yeah, there's no saving it.

Yeah, 100%. Yeah, yeah, no. I was giving him plus hope. This is going to sound a lot harsher than I mean, Gavin. But I think that might be the worst pick anyone has ever made in any of these draft. Cup of tea? Gavin, Gavin, he's on your side. Check and a cup of tea at home.

I don't want to eat three. I don't want to eat four courses. I've done it three. I completely get where your cup. coming from, I just think it's the worst pick anyone's ever made. I mean, yeah. And I don't mean that aggressively. You can have it, like it's, you know, I guess you're coming from, but.

And this is the man who, who, uh, made fun of crack rock. Yeah, I was wrong. I was on the wrong side of history of crack rock. If you presented me with, with this as a meal itinerary, I'd, I'd freaking love that. That sounds incredible. Wait, so if I presented you with that, am I saying that I'm going to leave and pay for your meal in that context

like that's what's weird about it is I feel like I'm giving you our dinner plans and also what I plan to do as soon as we're done well I'm looking at that I'm thinking that's a meal that's gonna be slightly shorter than all the others and I think that's brilliant I'd be looking at it going does he want me to go to his house

am I supposed to have tea with him yes are we invited to your house for tea is he just telling me that what his plans are after we have the dinner. It is a bit confusing. It is kind of odd. Should I just have put cup of tea at home? I mean, what?

Are we invited to the tea? Gavin, when do you think the courses stop? Am I selling this meal? Or am I eating this meal? That's, you know what? I think that's for you to set up. Is this in your home? Are you presenting this at your house?

I just was drafting a four-course meal that I would want to eat. You want to eat the check? Wow. Yum. Hell of a pick, Gav. Hell of a bit. Yeah, great, great final thing. Yeah, I've been awesome, awesome drafting.

I mean, I stand by my pick. I think it's a wicked final course. Yeah, absolutely, man. Yeah, I stand by your pick also. Way to go. I think everybody's standing by your pick. Yeah, I think everyone's standing by your pick. Yeah, great work.

Ten toes down. Yeah, behind it, that's for sure. Well, Jeff is standing on business as he rounds out his fourth and final course here, and he's going to end the four-course meal draft. Jeff, take us out big style. So my fourth and final course is, it's a newer one for me. It's a bit aspirational. but I feel like it also is related to the maturation process of Jeff.

Something you may not know about me is that I'm a big dessert guy. Now, I didn't used to be a big dessert guy that has come to me later in life for one specific reason that I bet a lot of people don't know is that when you're an alcoholic, one of the things that you become super addicted to, obviously the alcohol, the other thing is the fucking sugar in alcohol. There's so much sugar in alcohol. I never was into candy or sweets growing up. up. But after I got sober, I developed a sweet tooth that has just beaten the shit out of me

for the last couple of years. And so I'm trying to break free of that. I'm tempted to pick a banana split. I'm tempted to pick a slice of cheesecake. I'm scared that you guys are going to gavin me here for this. But my final pick is going to be in a pair of teeth as well. I just want, I'm trying to teach myself to appreciate the simplicity of a little espresso. Oh, I think that's a great pick. Oh, what a finale. Yeah, I think, I think that's a great pick. Fantastic. Yeah, I think that's phenomenal.

10-10. Here's the thing, because you can sit, you can sit, you're still hanging out, you're winding down the evening people. People see it and they go, ooh, isn't it a little late for that? And you go, ooh, no, as an end to the meal, you need it because you're dragging just a hair. Let's have some sips. Let's walk it off. Let's enjoy this evening air together, Jeff. I think a little espresso is a great pick.

I love it. Thank you, Eric. I appreciate it. That's what I pick. but just with half as much caffeine. No, no, no, you pick the check and go home. Jeff is enjoying. I'm still at the dinner table, dude.

Jeff is enjoying the night regaling us with tails. Okay, so what's unheard? I'm telling stories about Gavin now that he's gone. What if I just picked check and cup of tea at the restaurant? Yeah, I mean, that would have made more sense. Yeah, I think that would have been a way better pick on. Pick it. So it's the at home.

Because now we're locked in on the four-courth meal draft, you dummy. We've done it. We've drafted all four courses. All five of us, which we did not randomize 20 times, only four. And this is how we landed. These are Jeff's four courses. Let us know in the comments who had the best four course meal. And as Gavin will tell you later, there's a poll that you're able to vote in.

Here's the pick order. Jeff Bruchetta, prime rib, crispy Brussels sprouts, and a little espresso. Beautiful, excellent. Gavin, starting strong with a prawn cocktail, then bone in filet with peppercorn sauce with fries, chocolate fondue, and rounding out with the check and a cup of tea at home. I have picked Coors' Banquet,

French fries, two or three hamburgers, and Coors Light. Yeah, I know, I agree. I have some great picks. Those are great picks from me. And here's Nick. Nick is going out back and down under as we take it to the bloomin onion, the blue cheese wedge salad, rib eye with fully loaded baked potato and broccoli, and finally the chocolate thunder down under.

From down under. Mm-hmm. Okay, and Andrew, facacia, bacon, barbecue, wrapped prawns, chicken parmesan with twice baked potato and vegetable medley and finally rounding it out with the space cake. Hey, Gavin, you know what my check is? You know how expensive my meal is? You know how expensive you be paid? 420, baby. Hey!

Oh! That's what I'm talking about. Oh, Christ. Christ, Christ, Christ. Man, that turned out so much better than I thought it was. A fantastic dinner for all of us, the four-course meal draft. So different, each and every one of us. But the only people that can let us know who did it best is you at home.

Leave a comment vote in the poll. Tell us what your perfect four-course meal is. That's the way that you can interact with this. and then we'll finally see who had the best four-course meal and then we will get mad at one another. Thank you guys so much for listening to this. Check out the Patreonatatron.com slash the Regulation Pod.

And you're going to want to listen to the podcast, but before we take it out, boys, was there anything else that you left off your list, honorable mentions? I was really close to drafting check and cup of tea at mom's home. Maybe grandparents' house. Yeah, so it's a little different.

You know what? I would have allowed it, but it probably would have been a little bit of a fight. Ice cream sandwich from the gas station on the way home. That's a great pick. What are you talking about? That's a perfect pick. Check in patrolling the streets for an ice cream truck. If you eat in a prawn cocktail, a big old slab of meat, some fries, and you'd been dunking chocolate fondue, where do you want to be now?

In the restaurant with my friends, enjoying the end of that meal and sharing stories coming up with new ideas, enjoying company. Fellowship, as we call it. Do that you're a dessert. Do that while you eat dessert. I would feel kind of ripped off if one of the courses in my four-course meal was getting the check. That happens. It's part of every meal. And there's a tea.

Yeah, but that's at home. You're doing that yourself. Yeah. Garson. I changed my whole draft on the fly. I was originally going with broccoli. A cranberry fetta and walnut salad, wagu steak, and a blueberry impanata. but Coor's Banquet sounded real good right now,

so I just went with that and kind of saw where the day took me. Thank you guys so much for listening to this. So many drafts coming. Down the Pipe. I want to thank you for supporting us directly on Patreon. Pipe's draft. Heard it here first.

See you next time. Bye. Ooh. I can do crack rock again. Check please.
