Part 2 of Episode 15 starts with absolute studio chaos and only gets dumber from there — in the best possible way.

The guys kick things off with a weekend recap from the shop, where a simple sale turns into a parade of weirdos, stolen socks, suspicious backpacks, busted laptops, a mysterious hurricane lamp pitch, and one unforgettable character who may or may not have been Kittanning’s least subtle thief.

From there, Lerndog takes us through his NFL Draft adventure in Pittsburgh, complete with cheap parking, missed live music, street freestyle rap, random bar stops, and the birth of #220LeeSleeping — because nothing says “big weekend” like being fully mummified in a hotel bed by mid-afternoon.

Then the boys dive headfirst into retro sports chaos: baseball mullets vs. mustaches, Randy Johnson vs. Rollie Fingers energy, Griffey vs. Bonds in 1992, whether Bo Jackson would have been the greatest athlete ever, Tecmo Bowl vs. Madden, personal MLB/NFL Mount Rushmore picks, favorite broadcasters, legendary rivalries, and the childhood baseball cards they would still fight somebody over.

And just when the episode almost becomes a respectable sports podcast, it swerves into Funko Pops, Fritzy’s, Willie, party stories, and the debut of the instant classic: “Golfing Clown.”

It’s weird. It’s nostalgic. It’s probably too honest. It’s Shaffer RULES.

The Shaffer RULES Podcast is back with Episode 15 - Part 1, and somehow the guys made it through Lee Grafton’s 50th birthday party with enough brain cells left to record. Barely.

This episode features the show’s first in-studio guest, Michael “Lerndog” Lehner, who joins the crew for a night of bad decisions, worse beverages, and stories that probably should have stayed in the early ’90s. The guys finally uncover the origin of the legendary Lerndog nickname, which involves Moondog, high school party lore, and the kind of name-calling that becomes permanent before you even realize your life has changed.

The show kicks off with music from Love Dumpster, a band name that deserves respect before you even hear a note. The guys talk about the song, Isaac Jackson’s drumming, and the band’s upcoming Millvale Music Festival appearance. Then they get the sponsor shoutouts rolling with Dubby Energy and Maono, because even chaos needs proper hydration and microphones that can survive Mad Dog fumes.

For Pour of the Week, the guys revisit a beverage that has ruined more college nights than fake IDs and bad tattoos: Mad Dog 20/20. Orange Jubilee, Blue Raspberry, Banana Red, and Strawberry Kiwi all enter the studio. Not all of them leave with dignity.

Corey’s Find of the Week starts with autographed Pittsburgh Pirates baseballs, including Henry Davis and Dale Berra, and somehow turns into a full-blown history lesson on the 1985 Pittsburgh drug trials, the Pirate Parrot, and the era when Major League Baseball apparently had more powder than the first day of ski season.

From there, the episode goes completely off the rails — which is really just “on brand.” The guys talk about Pete the Penguin, Pittsburgh’s original live mascot who had a tragically short career, Hulk Hogan’s questionable life choices, old-school wrestling, the worst finishing move in history, pizza-chef wrestlers, closed-circuit TV, cassettes, mix tapes, old a cappella recordings, Zippo Hot Tour memories, a surprise workout tape from Roy’s Mom, and another voicemail from Willie, who may or may not have seen a titty at Lee’s party.

It’s local music, retro sports, wrestling nostalgia, Pittsburgh weirdness, and three grown men voluntarily drinking Mad Dog on purpose. So, yes, this is Part 1.

In Episode 14 - Part 2 of the Shaffer RULES Podcast, the guys pick things back up with a full dose of nonsense, sports talk, and live chaos from Pittsburgh during NFL Draft week. The episode kicks off with a look at some truly bizarre sports, including Car Jitsu, where two people wrestle inside a car, and the equally ridiculous idea of Chess Boxing.

The guys also call in to check on Lee and Lerndog live from downtown Pittsburgh as the NFL Draft festivities take over the city. The conversation quickly turns into a Penguins playoff rant, with Lee breaking down what went wrong, why the Pens fell into Rick Tocchet-style hockey, and what he thinks the Steelers might do on draft day.

This episode also features a classic Shaffer Rule of the Week, focused on bad drivers, Pittsburgh lefts, and why people need to stop holding up traffic by “being nice.” From there, the show rolls into Put-in-Bay stories, storm memories, pool parties, stickers around town, fake sponsors, local music shoutouts, and the debut of a new musical masterpiece: the remix and rap version of “Kicked in the Dick by a Chick at Regionals.”

As always, the episode is packed with inside jokes, Pittsburgh references, hockey frustration, questionable music, sponsor shoutouts, and the kind of ridiculous conversation that makes Shaffer RULES what it is.
