Part 2 of 2. Chris Perfett of the late Pride of Detroit PODcast finishes his breakdown of the Detroit Lions' 2024 draft. Chris also discusses game theory, his relationship with sports, and what the PODcast journey has meant to him.

Afterwards, David and I debrief how stressful it was keeping up with Perfett's untouchable knowledge base while dealing with David's dying phone, and chat about sushi bars, Seinfeld and the agony of waiting for the 2024 Lions season to start.

• (02:00) "Of the three other draft picks, what stands out to you?"
• (24:07) "The mic is yours…what else do you want to say?"
• (29:06) "That was quite an experience

On the weekend before the 2024 NFL draft, David and Marshall reflect on what's changed for us as longtime Lions fans in one calendar year, and get back into the groove . We discuss:

• what it's like to be rooting for a winning Lions culture for the first time ever
• what makes a culture great
• what positions Holmes will focus on in the draft
• what we feel about the alternate uniforms (we disagree—respectfully of course)

If you, like us, root for the team in blue, then as David says, it's a fun hang. | Theme music: Mr. Jukes and Barney Artist, "Blowin Steam (Open Up Your Mind)"
