We're back on the Winning Parlaiy Podcast, and after Scotty B and Ernie "crushed it," we had to bring the "World Famous Lopez Brothers" in to explain their continued lack of financial responsibility. Get ready for some deeply emotional sports analysis, as Fern explains why the NFL is like a volatile ex-girlfriend, leading to his brilliant new strategy of betting the opposite of whatever the AI suggests!

We dive into the Week 9 data, dissecting tasty spreads, debating the Colts/Steelers line (seriously, why is it so low?), and Big Worm drops his pick with "He's stamping it, Raph, I love it!" But before we get to the winning tickets, Fern takes us on a bizarre journey into the "Wormhole of Flavor" where he's still coping with his feelings about Shohei Ohtani's god-like status. You won't believe what he ate, or why he's going to the movies... alone.

Hit play to see if we can turn Fern's "Chilean Kiss of Death" into cold, hard cash! And seriously, someone please check on Fern.

The boys are 5 and 0 for the second week in a row, making them the kings of the betting world—at least in their own minds! 👑 Big E and Scotty B are riding high on the success of Parlaiy.com's simulations (8-5 this week, 63%!) and their own perfect 5-0 streak.

On the Docket this Week:

• Complaints Corner: Big E vents about "bad coaching in the NFL," specifically taking aim at predictable play-calling and the egregious fact that "Dillon Gabriel is not an NFL quarterback." 🤯

• A-I's Biggest Hits: Shoutout to the Jets' thrilling one-point victory and a surprise hit on the Ravens (pure luck, apparently, since the Bears "suck").

• "Old Man Strength" Theory: The guys get hilariously sidetracked debating the shocking age of Myles Garrett (29?!), which leads to a humbling realization about how old they feel chasing their kids.

• Locker & Landmine: Despite a sudden, unnerving confidence in their picks ("What do they know? What's going on?"), they reveal their Lock (Lions -8.5 vs. Vikings) and the games they absolutely won't touch (Chiefs at Bills & 49ers/Giants).

Plus, listen for Big E's deep dive into his secret Intellivision playbook and Scotty B's single-man park dating strategy! 😂

Get ready for an episode that's as wild as a Denver Broncos comeback against the Giants! The "Winning Parlaiy" crew is back and we're bringing the heat, the bad names, and a whole lot of analytics to Week 8.

• The CC Lamb Saga: Come for the betting tips, stay for the hilarious moment when a certain brother butchers a star player's name (multiple times!)—and then insists on using his new nickname for the rest of the show. We think "CC Lamb" has a nice ring to it.

• Brother vs. Brother: The Friendly Wager: It's Cowboys vs. Broncos, and the stakes are high—a couple's dinner... at a Gentlemen's Club. Listen in as we break down the friendly feud between the Lopez brothers and Scott, revealing who's betting on Dak and who's got the Broncos' special teams.

• Man vs. Machine: We're running Parlaiy's ultra-powerful AI simulator to find the Week 8 winners. Will the machine prove our gut right? Or will it make a compelling, yet terrifying, argument for the Jets to win (yes, you read that right, the Jets)?

• The Wormhole of Flavor: Big R drops some serious San Francisco knowledge on the legendary Beeps Burgers—a drive-in that's been around since 1962 and named after the "beep" of Space Age satellites! It's so good, one of the guys almost breaks his decades-long McDonald's abstinence for it. Also, learn about the "Chilean curse of death." (We don't know what it is either, but it sounds important.)

Don't miss the only podcast where we're going all-in on CC Lamb, McChickens, and the mathematical probability of a Jets victory!
