Real Good Show

This week on the show with no life and nothing to lose, cartoonist and comedian JACOB SAMUEL joins the Real Good Boys to discuss... well, salad mostly, as John reveals himself to be one of Hockey Twitter's awful food opinion-havers. The Stanley Cup Final is happening also, but it's a lot of salad talk if I'm being honest. PLUS: Joey Votto! The Ottawa Senators! And we draft inter-sport teams to compete against each other in one of the best Mailbag questions ever. Follow Jacob on Twitter: @jacobfsamuel His brand new book of cartoons, Slinky Hell, is available TODAY! Find it online at www.slinkyhell.com, and hopefully in bookstores too.

This week on the show that sounds like it's replacing YOU, we've got a real lost episode on our hands as #92 got locked up in the RGS Vault. Filling in in a pinch on an emergency podcast is emergency guest CHRIS JAMES, a perfect replacement guest on an adequate replacement episode. A day after we went in depth on the draft we barely talk sports at all, as Chris shares in-depth stories of his comedy encounters with Chris Kattan and Dan Nainan. PLUS: Death of the Cork Hat! The return of John Cullen's Roller Report! And Stefan and Chris wade back into the disgusting waters of Rule 34. "I'm Mango!"

This week on the show that's taking that for data, mixed emotions abound for the Real Good Boys, as the Leafs have yet to be eliminated but John's already pre-emptively cool with it if they get knocked out (Ron Howard voice: "They're out."), while Justin's still salty about trading away Zack Kassian and Stefan is about as apathetic and tapped out as he's ever been. I also coulda sworn we talked about Tryamkin, but that must have been before we were recording. Whoops! PLUS: Kevin Costner's Waterworld! Breaking in to concerts! Justin Bieber! And being on the ice with the Queen. What do you mean?

This week on the show that won't go to North Korea, we've all got our reasons to be happy: the Leafs are in the playoffs, and the Canucks have fired head coach Willie Desjardins.
