The allure of homegrown QBs; Marvel movies; robots; and Josh Allen as peanut butter Jul 20, 2022

Show notes

On this Wednesday edition of the Orange and Brown Talk Podcast, Ashley Bastock, Scott Patsko and Doug Lesmerises are talking football, food, movies and TV.

First up, a discussion of whether winning with a quarterback you drafted is more satisfying and asking how that factors into feelings for Browns fans about Baker Mayfield and Deshaun Watson. Who are the best and most beloved Cleveland athletes who were successes in another city before they got here?

Then, on a national football topic, what will happen with Lamar Jackson and the Baltimore Ravens this season, both with his contract and his performance?

And then the pod wraps up with Watcha Watchin', Watcha Eatin', as Scott, Ashley and Doug each bring up something they've been watching lately that they want to discuss, and then bring up something they've been eating that's worth talking about.

That leads to a thorough debate about which 2018 draft QB is which kind of peanut butter. Thanks for listening.
