What happens when three friends with intimate knowledge of Vienna's public transportation system compete to draft the ultimate team of U-Bahn stations? Pure transit-based entertainment, that's what.

Welcome back to the Schnitz and Giggles podcast, where we're joined by returning guest "Mr. Algebro" for our first-ever Vienna U-Bahn draft. Before diving into the competitive station selection, we explore a surprisingly divisive cultural difference between Americans and Austrians - the concept of air drafts on public transportation. While Americans seek fresh air circulation, Austrians slam windows shut at the first sign of a breeze, highlighting deeper cultural attitudes about public spaces and personal comfort.

The draft quickly heats up as we establish the rules: each player must select six stations - one from each U-Bahn line (U1, U2, U3, U4, U6) plus a wildcard sixth pick. Strategic thinking emerges immediately with Karlsplatz (the only station serving three lines) claimed first, followed by other coveted locations like Stephansplatz, Praterstern, and Schottentor. What makes this conversation fascinating is how personal connections influence our choices - from childhood McDonald's memories to favorite neighborhood spots near Volkstheater.

As the teams take shape, we reveal surprising insights about Vienna's neighborhoods, hidden gems, and the distinct character of each subway line. The U1 emerges as "the most stacked line in the draft," while the U6 presents more challenging choices. By the final team reviews, three distinct approaches to creating the ultimate U-Bahn lineup become clear.

Whether you're a Vienna local, planning a visit, or simply enjoy spirited debates about public transportation, this episode offers a uniquely personal perspective on how transit shapes daily life in one of Europe's most livable cities. Listen now, and don't forget to vote on which team deserves the crown in our inaugural U-Bahn Station Draft!

Mr. Giggles:

Guten hallo and welcome back to the Schnitz and Giggles podcast, guten hallo Guten, hallo, guten, hallo.

Dr. Schnitzel:

I'm Lukas.

Mr. Giggles:

And we've got a return of a very special guest, Mr Algebra.

Mr. Algebro:

Guten hallo.

Mr. Giggles:

Guten hallo to you, also known as Sean.

Dr. Schnitzel:

Sultry, sultry.

Mr. Algebro:

Guten hallo, my goodness, I've been working on my podcast voice.

Mr. Giggles:

Yeah, this is good, this is really good.

Dr. Schnitzel:

Yeah, voice. Yeah, this is good, this is really good. Yeah, he's been our first guest ever and he's also first returning guest ever, that's right so we really appreciate you coming in.

Mr. Giggles:

Yeah, I'm happy to be back. Yeah, first made his appearance on the grand finale of season one. Right, since we have mr algebra here, we have an extra voice in the room. I thought it'd be fun to have a draft. A draft, yeah. Well, I don't like drafts. Why don't you like drafts? So drafts are very important to Sean and I. How come? Well, we always participate in a draft at the beginning of every football season.

Mr. Algebro:

Fantasy football.

Mr. Giggles:

Fantasy football Talk about drafts. Do drafts, think about drafts Argue about drafts.

Dr. Schnitzel:

When Is Think about drafts Argue about drafts. When I notice a draft, I usually close the window.

Mr. Giggles:

Classic Classic.

Mr. Algebro:

Lucas, is that why you're wearing a scarf?

Dr. Schnitzel:

today, absolutely, and I have the fan on what? While drinking hot tea, though.

Mr. Giggles:

So well, of course, you got to drink your hot tea to hold off the sickness that the draft would have caused Exactly.

Mr. Algebro:

It's dangerous. Can we talk about that?

Mr. Giggles:

for a second. It's dangerous. There have been times where we've been sitting on the Ubon Springtime fall, you know it's kind of cold outside, but not freezing cold outside. The heater inside public transportation is blasted way too high and we need a little bit of relief. On one of the U-Bahns perhaps, crack open a window and then inevitably somebody gets mad, stands up and slams that window shut. What is that about?

Dr. Schnitzel:

That's Austrian customs. That's how you do it. That's it, that's it. Well, it's.

Mr. Giggles:

Why don't you like the draft?

Dr. Schnitzel:

Well, people just don't like drafts here. That's it. That's it, well it's. Why don't you like the draft? Well, people just don't like drafts here. That's the way it goes. It's a World War II thing, maybe, but I think it's a long shot. I don't know how you got to this conclusion.

Mr. Giggles:

A military draft joke oh, we can edit that out.

Dr. Schnitzel:

No, yeah.

Mr. Giggles:

That's fine.

Dr. Schnitzel:

Can somebody make a military draft joke?

Mr. Giggles:

All right, so anyways. So we're going to do a.

Dr. Schnitzel:

Oh, you don't want me to explain.

Mr. Giggles:

Well, it didn't seem like you were going to, so yeah, why? What's the deal with drafts?

Dr. Schnitzel:

Well, I think the question that we're asking is why do you guys like drafts so much?

Mr. Algebro:

That's more our perspective of things we don't like smelly u-bones.

Mr. Giggles:

Yeah, I don't know. Is it about the smell? It's that we're like chasing a draft like that we really want to draft. It's just that it's a lot nicer in enclosed spaces when there is some moving air, fresh air at that well, actually I would agree.

Dr. Schnitzel:

I like fresh air too.

Mr. Giggles:

I don't know. What are we arguing about? What are we doing here?

Dr. Schnitzel:

let me. Let me back up for a moment, because you said you didn't like drafts. Yeah, well, you made me say that oh, I did not. Okay, we took a little while to figure out how to say it, but yeah, so first of all, I'm not the kind of guy to slam the window shots on the uber. I've never done that.

Dr. Schnitzel:

I'm usually the one I would rather open them, because I I tend to be rather hot than cold, generally speaking so I've heard that about you thank you, but what you have to keep in mind is that and maybe that's that's the the major difference between the american lifestyle and the european lifestyle is that most of the time we don't have places, buildings or trains that have air conditioning, and air conditioning, like the ac, really creates some very cold air. So if you're not used to that, I mean people literally get sick. They actually like they feel it in the neck or in the backs. I've actually had people falling sick because of the AC in the car, because they were not used to having AC in the car.

Mr. Algebro:

You know, ironically I have closed the window in the U-Bahn before.

Dr. Schnitzel:

Oh he's very austere. Now I don't want you to take this.

Mr. Algebro:

I have experienced what he's talking about with an AC unit. I sold my air conditioner last summer because I was getting sick from it.

Dr. Schnitzel:

Well see, it was hurting my voice I got some backup here from your fellow countryman, okay so just to get on some agreement of terms here.

Mr. Giggles:

Okay, getting a scratchy throat because you've been overwhelmed by the cold?

Mr. Algebro:

air is not getting sick it's not getting sick per se, but it's getting a sore throat nonetheless but if you're part of the viennese opera ensemble then you have a that's pretty bad and mr algebrie is probably calling me the closer the closer he closes the opera house.

Dr. Schnitzel:

At the end of everything he locks the door. It's just like the security guard part of the ensemble and he if he says in a cracky voice like, uh, close the door, then he can't do his job, so he sold his ac unit yeah for 60 euros.

Mr. Giggles:

The concept that people can get a sore throat from manufactured cold air is is certainly true, but it doesn't cause people to get sick and this is where the the definition.

Dr. Schnitzel:

I like the term manufactured air manufactured air yeah like oh, what did they make in this factory?

Mr. Giggles:

well, they make an air in this factory.

Dr. Schnitzel:

It's an air I think it's manufactured.

Mr. Algebro:

Sorry, you were saying yeah, you know, this whole ac like tangent doesn't really make sense because there's there's no ac on the. Oh wait, there is ac on some of the ubans, but you can't open the windows on those.

Mr. Giggles:

Yeah right, yeah, but they have a little bit of air.

Dr. Schnitzel:

They keep the the temperature nice yeah I think the biggest issue comes in the warmer months yeah, and the older cars and on the older cars, so they don't have ac when it's super hot outside.

Mr. Giggles:

If you open up a window, you get a nice draft to cool off. You get some fresh air because everybody's sweaty, everybody's breathing hard because they've been walking through the city. You want to open up a window and get some fresh air.

Dr. Schnitzel:

I mean, it's that draft that people don't like, apparently yeah, we don't want to talk about this forever here, but to give you a little bit of a perspective still from the practical sides of living in vienna is, I think the major issue sometimes comes around when the train goes from like being outside going into the tunnel, because the air in the tunnel is much cooler.

Dr. Schnitzel:

So delightful, so so nice so so for some people like if you open up the the window when it's the train's outside, it's fine, but once it hits the tunnel there's colder.

Mr. Giggles:

They don't like the colder air coming in then, and that's when they slam the windows shut so we didn't uh, we didn't come here today, today to talk about drafts coming in through windows.

Mr. Giggles:

Well, thank goodness yeah what a topic this episode, scraping the bottom of the barrel for funny topics. You know what will really kill Wind. We're going to do a draft, picking a team Earth, wind and fire. We aren't picking a team of elements. We are each going to be responsible for picking a team of Ubon stations. Our team will be made up of six members, but we only have three. Five of thosebon stations. Our team will be made up of six members. Five of those will represent. You must pick one station from each Ubon line, plus an extra kind of wild card A sixth man.

Mr. Giggles:

A sixth man, so to speak, a super sub. So in our draft we'll choose our draft order here. We haven't chosen that yet. I don't know how we're going to do that. We'll figure that out on the fly. We'll do it in a snake draft, lucas, you know what?

Dr. Schnitzel:

a snake draft is. I know what a snake draft is. Of course you do. It's when snakes get some cold air on their throat.

Mr. Giggles:

So we're going to do a snake draft and we're going to make arguments as to why we're choosing the Ubon stations that we're choosing, have some fun conversation and we'll let you you, our listeners choose who wins, who has the best team at the end of all this.

Mr. Algebro:

You didn't tell me we were doing this. I thought we were just going to talk about drafts on the Ubon. Yeah, I think you got us here.

Mr. Giggles:

Communication is. You know, I knew that you'd probably be more excited about talking about the draft on an. U-bahn than picking a team of U-Bahn stations.

Mr. Algebro:

Are you going to provide a map or do we have to memorize? We have to have the map memorized.

Mr. Giggles:

If you'll look underneath your seat, you'll find a map ready for you. Was this your paper? No, every chair in Austria has an U-Bahn map underneath it.

Dr. Schnitzel:

I don't know if you knew that. Yeah, that's the law, yeah it's a requirement, it's part of our tax payments.

Mr. Algebro:

Interesting places to choose from here. How are we?

Mr. Giggles:

in a school and I can't find a pen. Okay, here we go. Producer coming in clutch over here.

Mr. Algebro:

How much are you paying that producer?

Mr. Giggles:

He's getting work experience.

Mr. Algebro:

It's an internship. It's an internship, so I noticed the U5 is not on this map.

Dr. Schnitzel:

Do you have a favorite U5?

Mr. Giggles:

Spent a lot of time on the U5 lately.

Mr. Algebro:

Can you still get to Museums Quarter on the U2? That count, you can still. You can still these days yeah, just reopened.

Dr. Schnitzel:

Okay, in the future we will be u5, but now the u2 has reopened okay exciting, all right, uh, for the listener at home.

Mr. Giggles:

I have put the numbers one, two and three written on a piece of paper.

Dr. Schnitzel:

I can confirm that so.

Mr. Giggles:

So it's a 50-50 chance. Mr.

Mr. Algebro:

Algebra in the house.

Mr. Giggles:

I will now take this hat over to Mr Algebra as our guest.

Dr. Schnitzel:

Has the right of first choice To take out one quarter of the papers.

Mr. Algebro:

Okay, got one. Do I look at it yet? Hold on.

Mr. Giggles:

So everybody now has a sheet of paper with a number on it.

Dr. Schnitzel:

Okay, gentlemen, unfold your paper, unfold it.

Mr. Algebro:

The only even prime number is what I got.

Dr. Schnitzel:

Yeah, you're the number one.

Mr. Giggles:

Again. I'm number one and you're number three. I got last place, all right, good. Well, it's good because you can show you how it's done.

Mr. Algebro:

Yeah.

Mr. Giggles:

Oh man, I'm so stoked because there is definitely a 1-1.

Mr. Algebro:

You think there's a number one.

Mr. Giggles:

Absolutely.

Mr. Algebro:

There's a 1-1 in this draft Okay good, because I didn't want to be the first and pick something stupid and then blow the first pick.

Mr. Giggles:

Based on my reasoning. Okay, there's a one one that's the part for the first pick in the inaugural ubon station draft.

Dr. Schnitzel:

Okay, do we take. Take, uh, keep the time, or yeah, he needs 30 seconds.

Mr. Algebro:

I don't need 30 seconds.

Mr. Giggles:

Yeah, I mean I might stretch it out to 30 seconds with the but we have to name it and give a reason why.

Dr. Schnitzel:

right, right, sure yeah.

Mr. Giggles:

I think the reason will be obvious once I explain it, or once I say it With you.

Dr. Schnitzel:

everything's obvious, the first choice is Karl's Plots.

Mr. Algebro:

Oh, karl's Plots.

Mr. Giggles:

Obvious 1-1, has three lines. So I now have a draft pick that could be used for either the U2, the U4, or the U1.

Mr. Algebro:

Which line are you going to count this for?

Mr. Giggles:

I guess we didn't talk about the rules whether we need to identify that right away, or, if I can wait, let's change the rules while you're playing the game. Change the rules.

Dr. Schnitzel:

Define the rules while you're playing the game.

Mr. Giggles:

Define the rules while we play the game. I'm going to keep my options open. That is my wild card. So that's my wild card pick. What? What's a wild card pick? That's our sixth man. You're picking your sixth man first. Yeah, you can pick them in any order.

Mr. Algebro:

It's a draft, but which line are you going to?

Mr. Giggles:

count it for Well, my sixth man.

Dr. Schnitzel:

So that's his wild card?

Mr. Giggles:

It doesn't count against any of my lines.

Dr. Schnitzel:

What.

Mr. Giggles:

So if he needs a u2 or u4, then you can. Yeah, so now my, I haven't locked in carl's plots to any one line you can.

Dr. Schnitzel:

I can pick another great stop, but you I didn't know you could do that, but you reserved it now like we cannot pick it in a lot more, right? Yeah, you can't pick carl's plots.

Mr. Algebro:

It's off. You can count it for u1, u2 or u4, but I but I'm not.

Mr. Giggles:

I could count it for one of those, but in terms of my team, yeah it's my six man and neither of us could take it now for any line.

Mr. Algebro:

Well, of course yeah, but but that's still I still.

Dr. Schnitzel:

Now I'm able to pick you still have to name it you want to you, for you want so like I haven't chosen any specific line yet.

Mr. Giggles:

Okay, but I've gotten the best pick with my first pick.

Mr. Algebro:

Thank you very much I don't like your reasoning, but this okay, go ahead.

Mr. Giggles:

Next up on the draft.

Mr. Algebro:

My pick. Okay, now that I see what you did with the reasoning there, I'm going to go with Trotterstein. This is my pick and my reasoning is because I've been there probably the most times of any station. It's a of any station.

Mr. Giggles:

It's a very busy station.

Mr. Algebro:

You can connect to the U1, the U2, the Schnellbahn to go to the airport.

Mr. Giggles:

That's true, very important.

Mr. Algebro:

And you can meet the best. If you go there at like 2 am, you meet the best strangers.

Mr. Giggles:

The strangest Strangers at McDonald's? Yeah, especially theald's there. That's a good pick. That's a good pick. Any other comments are you?

Mr. Algebro:

good, uh, makes me think of matt prater, the uh, that kicker actually that he's been a pretty constant choice on my fantasy team simply because of that, a little homage.

Dr. Schnitzel:

Great. So it's Lukey, you're on the clock.

Mr. Giggles:

So, oh well, hold on, hold on what is. Is that your U1 choice or?

Mr. Algebro:

U2 choice, so you didn't say which line yours was for.

Dr. Schnitzel:

Yes, it's my sixth man.

Mr. Algebro:

So I could say that's my sixth man. You could you could.

Mr. Giggles:

You don't have to choose. You can choose your team in any order okay so if you wanted to choose a u3, stop for your first pick. That's fine, you. You don't have to go okay, I thought we'd go you one first and you two.

Mr. Algebro:

That's part of the strategy. Okay, I'm gonna yeah I guess I'll make that my sixth man, that's your sixth man as well.

Mr. Giggles:

All right.

Dr. Schnitzel:

I see. So there's five lines and we pick six stops.

Mr. Giggles:

So not to give too much away, but given that Lukey is, Lukey the rookie. Now that we've both chosen a sixth man, it doesn't really matter. I mean, with sixth man, since it's kind of an extra one, but you're not forced to pick a six-man one now. You could jump in and grab one of the other lines that we haven't picked off of, but you can hold to the six-man until the very end, because we've already chosen.

Dr. Schnitzel:

We can't steal away anything. I mean, you've chosen some quite good spots.

Mr. Giggles:

Some would say two of the best. Certainly one of the best.

Dr. Schnitzel:

One, clear one, one. Well, you've got to wait for the local to respond to this all right so what's uh lucas so, strategically speaking, would you give me the advice also picking my wild card now or so?

Mr. Giggles:

you. I mean, I know you want to win this game, but I've already given enough advice, yeah it's up to you. Okay, if there's a line that you really want and one of the other ones and you want to get it before, we might take it you know, could we just agree that none of us is going to take stefan's place because, like it's so obvious, like you said before, or is that why?

Mr. Algebro:

why well?

Dr. Schnitzel:

I'm just, I'm just saying because it seems like a fine pick.

Mr. Algebro:

It's kind of like every every. I thought that's what he was gonna go with number one. Actually that was that was number one on my board.

Dr. Schnitzel:

Well, no, it wasn't you pick it see, but but then I heard you changed your reasoning and then I changed my boy that's just that's psychological warfare.

Mr. Algebro:

Yeah, I've already changed.

Dr. Schnitzel:

He actually tricked you out of picking stefan, so maybe he wants me we've talked too much. Maybe he wants you to pick, but then what does it mean? That maybe he has another strategy?

Mr. Giggles:

that both of us are going to lose.

Dr. Schnitzel:

Anyways, your pick. Okay, I'm going to go full throttle in a different direction. So, to make it more interesting, even if I risk it all, I'm going to pick Herrengasse.

Mr. Algebro:

Herrengasse, you three Ooh, right next to Stefan's pots. Wow, what a curveball.

Mr. Giggles:

Whoa, what a curveball, what a curveball see that is why should I give you my reasoning?

Dr. Schnitzel:

yes, why? Room okay because, wow, because good reason, my favorite u3 stop. I mean, I think that's that's kind of the spirit of the game, yeah, yeah, well, because other than stefan's place, it's actually the only stop that's really within the inner city, because all the others are just around the ring, like, which is around the first district, and if you exit it there's two exits. If you exit one part, first of all, you're gonna see a really really interesting church that is just fabulous and confusing, because the architecture and the history is great yeah plus, you might run into the minister of foreign affairs there, because it's right next to the U-Bahn stop.

Dr. Schnitzel:

It's like you have Arnold Schwarzenegger. Yes, exactly that's where he's at. Yeah, the president works just around the corner. The chancellor is just working around the corner. That's only one exit. The other exit because it's like the downtown inner city place gets you into Vienna as its most historic core, perhaps.

Mr. Giggles:

Yeah, right next to a Vapiano. Like the Vapiano, it's been there for 500 years. The historic core of Austrian history.

Dr. Schnitzel:

Well, Herringgasse actually means the street of lords. No, it means hair.

Mr. Algebro:

Like straight of hair. That's what I thought, countered by Baldassgasse. I see that's not a stop. Where's Baldassgasse on your exit?

Dr. Schnitzel:

it's on or is it?

Dr. Schnitzel:

other class the thing is, when you exit Herrengasse, at that other part of that exit you kind of get to see Vienna probably the way Mozart and Beethoven would see it, like walk through. It's like the way really narrow streets are there, the cars can't even pass through, hardly can pass through. So it's really the nice scenery of ancient Vienna. So imagine you come from the airport and you want to see Vienna like Mozart saw it. You probably have to exit at Herrengasse and then you kind of get the experience, because if you exit anywhere else it saw it, you probably have to exit at herring gas and then you kind of get the experience, because if you exit anywhere else, it's too way too modern and way different than classical vienna.

Mr. Algebro:

So there are like 10 reasons that I picked herring wow reasoning. Isn't that one cafe by?

Mr. Giggles:

there. Central perk is right right there. That is a beautiful spot in the city. I like those reasons very good, so thank you, I think I got something right here. I need to change my board again.

Dr. Schnitzel:

Well, central Perk is right there.

Mr. Algebro:

That is a beautiful spot in the city.

Dr. Schnitzel:

I like those reasons Very good, so thank you, I think I got something right here.

Mr. Algebro:

I need to change my board again.

Dr. Schnitzel:

Well, I'm 100% taking.

Mr. Giggles:

Stefan's spots.

Dr. Schnitzel:

But wait, he gets to go twice. Oh, dang it no.

Mr. Giggles:

The snake. No, I forgot about the snake, I love your strategy?

Dr. Schnitzel:

Oh no.

Mr. Giggles:

What a rookie mistake. I got so excited.

Dr. Schnitzel:

So who's playing Psychological Warfare here now?

Mr. Algebro:

The Austrian is kicking our.

Mr. Giggles:

Not yet. Let's see what he does with this.

Dr. Schnitzel:

It's the first round. Let's see what he does With this piece. Okay, well, now I have to. Well, the thing is, I feel kind of bad Picking Stefan's bloods for you, okay, sorry that's the point of the game sorry, I forgot.

Mr. Giggles:

And the takeaway I forgot.

Dr. Schnitzel:

I'm playing this game with very competitive americans gave you, just giving me.

Mr. Giggles:

Yeah, I mean okay, I just want to be your friend here, like you know, hey, we're friends, you're okay, we'll see the friends more disappointed in you as my friend if you don't take Steffenplatz right now okay, I claim Steffenplatz.

Dr. Schnitzel:

I don't have any reason. Why, no reason? Why, just to take it away.

Mr. Giggles:

Well, that's reason enough.

Dr. Schnitzel:

Somebody had to do it the question like Mr Algebra said earlier, where do you start when you pick Steffenplatz? It's the central place of the city, first of all, plus one interesting fact is that when they first built the u1 there and then later the u3, when they were digging the tunnels, they were really concerned with all the ancient, like the substance of the city and like digging underneath the cathedral, they want to be very extra careful not to damage it.

Dr. Schnitzel:

They actually unearthed literally some old chapel that was like an underground chapel. That's still out there and like they made all these discoveries just digging a tunnel for the train tracks yeah which makes it fascinating because you can actually take a quick look at it if you even exit that stop anywhere that's right um anytime. Do I need to give more, more reasons?

Mr. Giggles:

or no. I mean, I think we all yeah, because we all agree. I think we all agree that that's a top pick.

Dr. Schnitzel:

Obviously, I had stumbled into giving too much of my own Okay but let me just understand the rules, because I picked one U3 thing already.

Mr. Algebro:

Yeah, and I picked Stefan.

Dr. Schnitzel:

Spratz. So this can't be U3.

Mr. Giggles:

So that can either be U1 or your six man If you have another U1 that you would like to pick, that you're hoping to get get, then you can make that your six man, so you can get your other, you one stop I think I make this my sixth okay because, all right, there might be some interesting things about.

Dr. Schnitzel:

You want that's right to say, yeah, so I get okay.

Mr. Giggles:

Okay, all right well, so back to me, you're back to.

Mr. Algebro:

I am gonna go very near those other two and I'm gonna go with stupentor because bill's going there and that is my reason sorry, I spoiled the punchline sorry. Many years ago we were enjoying a meal at siebenstein and we all were kind of going back towards the u1. We all lived like near the same spot and for some reason bill bill needs to be on the podcast bill.

Mr. Algebro:

If you're out there, yeah, come on over for some reason bill kept going on the u3 and everyone's like why is bill going to student tour and then off he went and we don't know where he went.

Dr. Schnitzel:

Didn't one of our colleagues actually call him like.

Mr. Algebro:

He went back into the train like caleb, I think said he, yeah, yeah, caleb went back onto the train to try to get him off and he just waved to the rest of us and off he went and was completely on the opposite direction of where he was actually living. Yeah, one of the greatest moments of my life.

Dr. Schnitzel:

So I have to pick.

Mr. Giggles:

Stupentor is legendary I think you could probably pick a whole team of just those just bill related stops. I know, bill, we love you.

Mr. Algebro:

I hope you're listening and back when you said like vapiano, like I could build a whole team of vapiano stops, that's fair and gasa yeah uh, by the way, the, the vapiano at nestor plots is no longer no way not there anymore

Mr. Giggles:

that was your pick for the U1 sorry about it.

Dr. Schnitzel:

I like his pick because it's a stop that he apparently never went to but, he still is a favorite of that line. I mean, I've been to Stubentor many times.

Mr. Algebro:

I've been there many times. You know that there's like that little model of Steffen's Plotz there. That's cool there. Know that there's like that little model of Steffen's plots there. That's cool. There's some. There's a really cool entrance down like I don't know.

Dr. Schnitzel:

There's a really cool entrance down there by Stubentor.

Mr. Algebro:

Yeah, it's kind of fancy. I've been there many times. It's really close to Stadtpark.

Mr. Giggles:

It is, it is, yeah, it is, yep.

Mr. Algebro:

Okay, so you both are on the u3 here. Yes, that is my u3 pick. Oh no, that means I can't pick any other u3, any other u3 oh well, it was worth it. I mean, it's classic why is bill going to shoot?

Mr. Giggles:

I think, uh, I'm gonna go with a very important pick for my normal getting around town.

Dr. Schnitzel:

For the good stuff. Did I get that right? Cagran, oh Cagran, ooh Cagran.

Mr. Giggles:

Cagran, cagran. You know, it's an important stop because of Donauzentrum.

Mr. Algebro:

Of course you can't get off there right now, can't Going towards, but I have a bus line that goes direct there.

Mr. Giggles:

I cannot get on the U1 to go into the city, so that's become a problem. But there's enough things that Now it's only a U1 stop. There's not a lot of. I mean there's a lot of buses that connect there, so it's a pretty well-connected get, especially on this side of the river.

Dr. Schnitzel:

So, yeah, good connection. That's my pick For you, one Cagran, all right.

Mr. Giggles:

Cagran.

Dr. Schnitzel:

Cagran is taken off the grid.

Mr. Algebro:

You made my heart skip a beat there, because Did you have? To pick tuna or no no, no, wait, yes, I get another pick. Okay, I almost did what he did. I was waiting to hear what you were going to say because, then I was going to steal it See. Especially since I made your heart skip a beat. You know actually, yeah, going second sucks.

Mr. Giggles:

Yeah, I never get to pick twice in a row. You never get a double pick. What a stupid game. But now I am going to go with the pick that Lukey expected.

Dr. Schnitzel:

Okay.

Mr. Giggles:

And I'm going to choose for the U6, flordsdorf Predictable Kind of a dangerous pick because it's a very People either love or hate that station. But it's a good start for the U6 to get into the city, get on some Schnellbahns there. For me it's a connection for the bus, so it's a starting point for a lot of things so you know I like it.

Dr. Schnitzel:

Do you know what praterstern and florid stuff, having come in now like those two, stops fairly recently for florid stuff? Mcdonald's at 2 am well, that kind of is connected with.

Mr. Algebro:

But there's an there's an uh alcohol free zone, free zone.

Dr. Schnitzel:

Yeah, there, like they bans any alcohol, so you couldn you cannot drink in public in Amplaterstern or at Floridstorf now.

Mr. Giggles:

Hmm, I didn't know that, which you usually can in Austria, and it's not forbidden except for some Except for the stations where things are with less savory elements of people.

Mr. Algebro:

So no Almdudler allowed, not for you, my friend.

Dr. Schnitzel:

Spiked Almdudler.

Mr. Algebro:

Okay, okay. Now it's my turn, finally, man, this is hard, this is really difficult. You made my heart skip a beat when you said Cagran, because there's a sop right next to it, that's very close to my heart, very important to you, yeah. Cagraner plots.

Mr. Giggles:

Ooh.

Mr. Algebro:

I think I have to pick it. I have to, even though there's so many other good U1, I mean the U1 is loaded.

Mr. Giggles:

I have to, even though there's so many other good U1. I mean, the U1 is loaded.

Mr. Algebro:

Let's be honest.

Mr. Giggles:

It's the most stacked line in the draft.

Mr. Algebro:

Yeah, and I guess it's just whether you think that that pick's going to be available later on in the draft or not. You sure it probably will be. I mean, why else?

Dr. Schnitzel:

would somebody pick that? But he might also think like what should I pick?

Mr. Algebro:

Exactly. He's not going to pick a grounder and you can't pick it because you just picked your U1.

Mr. Giggles:

So maybe I'll save it. You don't have to worry about me, but you have to worry about Mr.

Mr. Algebro:

Steelypants over here. Maybe I'll save it. I mean, nobody ever called me that, so you know. Another one that's very near and dear to me is Stadtpark. I think I'm going to take that one right now because I'm afraid Lucas might steal that one Stadtpark. So that's going to be my U4 pick, and the reason is I used to take my son Jackson there, like almost every weekend we would go to Stadtpark. Yeah, it's just a lovely park and I really like the brick on the U4, like the way it looks.

Mr. Giggles:

That's positive. It's very beautiful.

Mr. Algebro:

yes, yeah, it's still like really close to the city.

Mr. Giggles:

Yeah, it's basically right next door to Stubentor.

Mr. Algebro:

You can basically walk anywhere. You know, it's kind of is it on the ring technically.

Mr. Giggles:

Yeah, yeah, it's a of, is it on the?

Mr. Algebro:

ring technically. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah it's, it's a great location all right, lukey.

Dr. Schnitzel:

Oh, two picks to you two picks for me, just more saying that for myself keep your mouth shut before you said all of them, okay, I'm gonna go. I'm gonna go big with this one, but although I'm not sure which, which line I should actually pick it from, I'm gonna go with langenfeld gasse. Have you ever heard of that?

Mr. Giggles:

one before. That's your favorite. Well, that came up in our uh, actually in our ubon conversation as one of your favorite places.

Dr. Schnitzel:

We talked about our favorite places when we talked about public transportation in the first season of our podcast. Yeah, do you still remember my reason why no? Oh, because it's the weird side-by-side Well it's the only stop on all of those 109 stops, or whatever number we're talking about that has two lines, basic parallel parking yeah like stopping right next to each other, so you can actually, if you go in the same, like same kind of direction, you can hop into one back and forth, you can go back and forth.

Dr. Schnitzel:

So that is just a unique station it is and um also, I spend a lot of my spend a lot of years in that vicinity of my life, so I kind of know that place really well Also. Maybe sometimes it's also a little shady, but for Viennese standards it's still pretty fine. My only question was to myself should I pick it for the U6 or the U4 now?

Mr. Giggles:

It's a big decision to make.

Dr. Schnitzel:

Yeah, it's a big decision to make, yeah it's a big decision to make.

Mr. Giggles:

Probably make that pretty soon here, because I mean your next pick could influence that.

Mr. Algebro:

Yeah, well is anybody keeping? Track of yeah, our producers that's what he's getting paid the big bucks for I'm gonna pick it, I'm gonna pick the u4, I'm gonna save.

Dr. Schnitzel:

Save the U6 later because the U6 is a tough one. The.

Mr. Algebro:

U6 has. I was going to say you should tick it for your U6. Because what else is there on the U6?

Dr. Schnitzel:

Yeah, that's the question.

Mr. Algebro:

That's the. I'm saving that for last, because every pick on the U6 is bad.

Dr. Schnitzel:

Well, he picked Florida stuff already. That's gone. No, yeah, still, I did have some ideas concerning U4.

Mr. Giggles:

But Stuntpack popped into my mind for a moment.

Dr. Schnitzel:

I knew it, but actually it was kind of very low on my U4 list, maybe somewhere in the middle, so I have to pick a second one, right?

Mr. Algebro:

Yeah, you have your snake, so I picked U3 and.

Dr. Schnitzel:

U4 so far, so I have to pick a second one, right? Yeah? Yeah, you have your snake, yeah, so I picked u3 and u4 so far. Then I'm gonna I'm gonna save the u6 for later, because it's just so fun. Uh, let's look at the u2 for a moment. How about?

Mr. Giggles:

30 seconds. Here we're to start enforcing the clock.

Dr. Schnitzel:

Okay, I'm going with Forks Theater for you two.

Mr. Giggles:

Forks Theater.

Dr. Schnitzel:

And we've talked about that in season one as well.

Mr. Giggles:

Yeah, it's a fun stop.

Dr. Schnitzel:

Well, forks Theater is sort of related to Museums Quartier, which is right next to it. It is a place that gives you access like within walking distance, gives you access to Like lots of museums. That's why the other place is called Museumsquartier and it also Is sort of a very artsy Stop that has some Like art as a part of Like I said in season one.

Mr. Algebro:

You're picking a lot of intersecting lines here. Sure, do all of your picks have two lines going through them.

Mr. Giggles:

Not Herringgasse.

Dr. Schnitzel:

Not his. Sure do? All of your picks have two lines going through them. Not his first pick, not my first pick. So, like I said, I went completely the other way, like you guys did. Yeah, so first, that is just a very, very nice, also connecting point, because it's also close to the ring um and you can get to many, many different places. Plus, you can also have your cultural hunger fed. Whatever museum you want to go to and there's some gardens around. You can relax Folksgarten, folksgarten and the bookgarten, yeah.

Mr. Giggles:

Yeah, lots of cool things around that stuff. Thank you, so back to Mr.

Dr. Schnitzel:

Algebra, I want to redo.

Mr. Algebro:

I don't like any of my picks anymore.

Mr. Giggles:

There's so many other picks I want to redo. I don't like any of my picks anymore.

Mr. Algebro:

There's so many other picks.

Dr. Schnitzel:

I wanted to pick, I think.

Mr. Algebro:

I could have a whole team on the u4. Okay, I think that I will go with tension heat is rising did we start the timer I? Think I have to go with Adeklaerstrasse.

Mr. Giggles:

Adeklaerstrasse. Wow yeah.

Mr. Algebro:

I was going to go with Kagranerplatz.

Mr. Giggles:

Wait, how are you going with?

Mr. Algebro:

Adeklaerstrasse, because I didn't pick Kagranerplatz.

Mr. Giggles:

You didn't.

Mr. Algebro:

No, I said I was and then he picked a stop.

Mr. Giggles:

Oh that's right, Because he knew it would still be available.

Mr. Algebro:

I still had a U1 available, but then you pivoted. Wow, I pivoted. That's a big pivot, yeah, pivot. Yeah, I think I have to go with, because that was the stop when I first moved here. It's got the Baldass Gasse as the exit.

Dr. Schnitzel:

That's right.

Mr. Giggles:

I've heard enough. That's a good thing, very important.

Mr. Algebro:

It's a really weird name. Two A's in a row what?

Mr. Giggles:

kind of language is this Ander Klaar Strasse.

Dr. Schnitzel:

It's an E then.

Mr. Algebro:

I wanted to pick something that had the Strasse, because it looks like Straba, it's just such a dumb name. And yeah, we shared the apartment.

Mr. Giggles:

You lived in it and yeah, yeah, on city gates, there, like we shared that apartment.

Mr. Algebro:

You lived in it. I mean, we didn't live in it you guys shared an apartment.

Mr. Giggles:

We didn't live in it at the same time there's just.

Mr. Algebro:

There's a lot of history with that stuff. It's fair. And now there's the whole city gate there.

Mr. Giggles:

Yeah, it's an underrated stop alright, it's kind of far out there, but yeah, not, it's an underrated stop.

Mr. Algebro:

All right, it's kind of far out there, but yeah. Not really connected to anything, not really.

Mr. Giggles:

You got the 28A bus that you can jump on.

Mr. Algebro:

Wow, and you can go all the way.

Mr. Giggles:

You can almost get to Ikea. You can get within 10 minutes walk of Ikea if you take the 28A. So that's a.

Dr. Schnitzel:

It's great, especially if you want to go back and you have bought some stuff.

Mr. Algebro:

Yeah, I wonder how many of your listeners have ever been to that stop.

Mr. Giggles:

I challenge you listeners probably a I mean, if probably the local listeners, first local listeners and any, any listeners that are that have visited, that are friends of mine, who have visited of yours?

Dr. Schnitzel:

yes, so there's no friends of mine, no friends of mine, no friends of have been there Of yours, yes, so there's no friends of mine, no friends of mine, no friends of.

Mr. Giggles:

Lucas's have ever gone to Attic. Lyra's Dressroom hey, but I have a choice to make. Okay, Crap, I had one.

Mr. Algebro:

Oh yeah.

Mr. Giggles:

I'm going to go with my U2 pick and I'm going to choose Schultentor.

Dr. Schnitzel:

I thought you were going to say Joshua Tree, yeah, so Schottentor Okay, I like it yeah. Good reason, that's the best reason so far, I think it's a cool stop.

Mr. Giggles:

You can get on a lot of trams throughout the city. It has the most trams.

Dr. Schnitzel:

Yeah, the most trams are originating or ending there.

Mr. Giggles:

All those Viennese tram lines, yeah you can cross the street underground, so that's cool, yeah, hmm, some good coffee shops nearby Fotevkirche. Is there Mm-hmm Right on the ring? It's a great stop. I like it for a lot of reasons. U2, schotentor, thank you, and to Sheldon Tor, thank you. And for my next pick, I'm going to be choosing my U3 pick. Let's hear it.

Mr. Algebro:

I know what it's going to be. You do, I do.

Mr. Giggles:

Write it down. Write down what you think I'm going to choose.

Dr. Schnitzel:

Okay, here's the knowledge proof writing down.

Mr. Algebro:

I'm just circling it. Okay, I'll write it down.

Dr. Schnitzel:

Write it down too and circle it. Okay, I got it what did you think it was? No, I bow because of siebenstern, siebenstern. Yes, yeah, good memories were made of that stuff. Yeah.

Mr. Giggles:

But I very rarely get off at Neubau Gasse to go to Siebenstein.

Mr. Algebro:

Ah, okay.

Mr. Giggles:

Yeah, so Landstrasse, I mean it's kind of a weird stop, but it can get you to different places, get you to the airport, even on the I mean I'd never pick up the airport train there but if I wanted to City airport train. City airport train is the biggest scam out there. Visitors to Vienna, you don't need to take that.

Dr. Schnitzel:

Yeah, landstrasse, but it also has a second name, landstrasse, which is Wien Mitte. Yeah, it is Wien Mitte and as a matter of fact, that means the middle of the city, so it's a really good spot to get to.

Mr. Algebro:

Yeah, centrally located, but is it really Wien Mitte?

Mr. Giggles:

Well, no, is it actually the middle?

Dr. Schnitzel:

But it gives me access to the U4 as well. If we're talking about, well, let's say, it's the most central station that also has trains coming through that go like outside of Vienna. That's why it is a center part of the city. It's not the main train station, it's not Hauptbahnhof.

Mr. Giggles:

Right.

Dr. Schnitzel:

Which is more south, but therefore it kind of deserves the name.

Mr. Giggles:

Okay, all Therefore, it kind of deserves the name. Are we under our final pick? Is it, is it?

Mr. Algebro:

No, because.

Dr. Schnitzel:

I still have a U2 and a U6. Our producer says no.

Mr. Algebro:

Yeah, producer, yeah, I have two picks. So then I will pick Burg, gasse, stadt, halle for U6.

Dr. Schnitzel:

Wow.

Mr. Algebro:

And I think the reason is obvious Because that's where Stadt Halle is, because that's where Stathalle is and that's where I've seen Blink-182. And that's where I'm going to see Green Day.

Mr. Giggles:

Oh, yeah, possibly.

Mr. Algebro:

I saw Jeremy Riddle there. For those of you that you know all the listeners out there that know who he is, okay, yeah, other than that, you know it's not that great of a stop. I really don't like the U6 in general. I feel unsafe on that line. But if I had to pick one, that would be it.

Mr. Giggles:

Okay, it's a good pick. It's a good pick. Good pick as far as what's left on the U6.

Mr. Algebro:

I almost forgot that that was even a line U1, u2, u3, u4., u6? Have you?

Dr. Schnitzel:

guys covered that on an episode before.

Mr. Algebro:

We talked about that. The U5 is being built, but maybe if people haven't listened to that episode hey guys, the U5 is being built.

Dr. Schnitzel:

Just a couple more years or decades.

Mr. Giggles:

Well, now they have no reason to go back and listen to that episode.

Mr. Algebro:

Go back and listen to that episode.

Dr. Schnitzel:

Find out why it's being built reason to go back and listen to that episode. Go back and listen to that episode, find out why it's being built, because we also talked about the agri-list stops as well, we did the most, yeah, the popular and most unpopular places. Yeah, all right, here we go. So it's me now. So I do have to pick a u6 stop now, because my, my wild card was on the. Yeah, on the ask our producer what you have left I think you've been writing down your team.

Mr. Giggles:

No, wow, how do you keep track of all this? I did this in my head.

Dr. Schnitzel:

I still remember I picked Heringasse and Volkstheater and Dengenfeldgasse.

Mr. Giggles:

Lucas, you still need to pick a U1 and a U6. Still a U1 and a U6.

Dr. Schnitzel:

Oh yeah, like. Okay, the wildcard is the sixth Correct.

Mr. Algebro:

Yeah, the sixth correct, yeah, yeah.

Dr. Schnitzel:

So I picked three of the regular ones, one wild card, so I have two more to make it six. Okay, I'll go with the u1 first. I don't know if you see this coming or not. I'm gonna pick dona insel oh, good, good pick. Thank you, I like that because it is the holiday station kind of yeah, it's, it's the, the stop that kind of gets you to the recreation area of, like, the most famous part of.

Mr. Giggles:

It's a delightful stop. You, basically you, you to the recreation area of, like, the most famous part of it's a delightful.

Dr. Schnitzel:

Stop you. Basically you get up there and you're at the beach. I mean what Vienna has to offer beach-wise. There you can go play volleyball.

Mr. Giggles:

Copacagana.

Dr. Schnitzel:

Copacagana.

Mr. Algebro:

You get some refreshments, dona Insel.

Dr. Schnitzel:

Fest, the Dona Insel Fest. If it happens there, of course, then it's probably one of the worst stops, because it's grass and no one getting on and off but there's lots of restaurants during the summertime.

Mr. Giggles:

You got nice swimming areas. Yeah, if you have some international diplomacy to do, you can just walk up to the, to the un, you know and plus when you come from the inner city and you go like north, it's really nice because it does.

Dr. Schnitzel:

The stop itself also has some windows and if you go in the morning for for example, you see the sun rising across the Danube. Like the water and everything, it's a beautiful scene.

Mr. Giggles:

And then you actually get into the alley in the open. It's a great pick this late in the day, Great pick. What a steal. Yeah, what a steal. Couldn't have seen that happening. I mean the U1 is a pretty deep draft class.

Mr. Algebro:

I could pick you.

Dr. Schnitzel:

I was thinking like in contrast to Stefan's belt or Kagan like this is just a complete different kind of feeling so do I have to pick my U6?

Mr. Giggles:

yeah, finish off your team you can leave it empty if you want.

Dr. Schnitzel:

But that seems to kind of defeat the purpose so I might surprise you one more time again, but I'm gonna pick Eiserstrasse. What have you ever heard of that one before?

Mr. Algebro:

That's on the oh yeah.

Dr. Schnitzel:

I was thinking I could have picked Westmannhof as well, because Westmannhof is just a very important stop and also very dear to my heart. However, I was picking Eiserstrasse, just basically for childhood memories. Because Eiserstras just basically for childhood memories, because Eiserstraße right next to it there is one. It's basically, I think, the only McDonald's that has drive-in within, like the inner city area, within the Gürtel.

Dr. Schnitzel:

Within the Gürtel. Yeah, I mean there's a couple just outside the Gürtel but if you think about like that's kind of the historic part of Vienna, like those districts 9th district, 8th district, 7th- district Been around for a while, there's a couple of McDonald's there, but none that you can really access by car.

Mr. Giggles:

So when I was a child and I would beg my dad to have some McDonald's, Like when you were driving as a kid, when I was driving, Jump in the car and go to McDonald's Right yeah, I would steal a car and go to McDonald's.

Dr. Schnitzel:

Yeah Well, it was just this fabulous moment when my dad actually would. Just sometimes he wouldn't say yes or no, he would just either straight, like on the street, or take a turn and make it to the drive-thru. So he would do the little trick-a-roo yeah.

Dr. Schnitzel:

I don't know if we're going to McDonald going, and we didn't pass there all the time, but quite frequently. So it was always like this idea of is today a mcdonald's day or not? Uh, I'm gonna get my happy meal, or not, so, and it may be quite happy. So I picked eisersdorf because it's a happy place for me, although the rest of the place doesn't have a lot to offer. But I don't know if you can picture the mcdonald's I'm talking about. It's actually also special because it's right underneath the U6 tracks.

Mr. Giggles:

Oh yeah.

Dr. Schnitzel:

It's in those like….

Mr. Giggles:

Oh yeah, it does have the weird drive-thru kind of just right… it's really weird, it's really narrow. Yeah, it's not very practical. I've noticed that.

Dr. Schnitzel:

But they make it work and you can get your burger real quick if you wanted to. He's not a card writer, so that concludes my weird picks.

Mr. Giggles:

All right, we can review afterwards. I'm not a fan of the U6. Okay, so final pick.

Mr. Algebro:

Okay, my final pick is you know, I have to pick from the U2, since, I mean, prater is really the best stop on U2, but I already picked that as my wildcard. It doesn't count for. And then someone already picked carl's plots first and shot and tore. I think I'm torn between tabo, strassa and rat house rat house. Rat house I'm torn because of a particular game we used to play and it's in the rule book.

Dr. Schnitzel:

But I don't know if this trip nine's on the top of the top of the cross, but only like 10 people in the in the world.

Mr. Algebro:

We're gonna get why yeah, yeah, I think that might be too much, that's, that's that's a stretch.

Mr. Giggles:

That's a stretch, but that's the rat house has the best.

Mr. Algebro:

Well, like one of the more famous christmas markets, with the rat house in the background. That people think is like a church, but it's a rat house. Yeah, that's where you keep the rats. I still don't know what that building is, um city hall city hall city hall whatever

Dr. Schnitzel:

all the rats, whatever.

Mr. Algebro:

I don't even know what city hall means this is where the mayor works.

Dr. Schnitzel:

What do you? What does the mayor even do? Sits there, sits there in the rat house.

Mr. Algebro:

It counts the rats. I think I'm going to go with the rat house. There's a nice centimeter restaurant nearby.

Dr. Schnitzel:

There it was by the church that we were at together.

Mr. Algebro:

There's a couple of Johnstone connections here with the Adlerstraße and the rat house Also. I just like saying rat house, it's a great name for a stop and I like it. When I'm near, I'm there and I hear tourists and like rat house, let's go to rat house. We have to get off at rat house, dear. And I'm like, yeah, so I'm going to go, with the shaking your head.

Dr. Schnitzel:

All right, rat house Rat house.

Mr. Giggles:

So I'm going to solidify my inner city corridor here okay and and I'm pretty sure it hasn't been chosen I'm gonna feel really dumb if it was chosen. I don't think it was, though schwedenplatz I was debating that one.

Mr. Algebro:

Yes, I mean, that was on my board, another access point to the u4.

Mr. Giggles:

Uh, because that's I'm picking it for my U4. To clarify.

Dr. Schnitzel:

Thanks for clarifying.

Mr. Giggles:

I think that's what I have to, yeah U4 is what I was missing. It's just a delightful place where you can see some of the more interesting people in Vienna. Got good ice cream nearby, happy noodles. Good kebab Connects to the baseball field, some good trams to go into the prodder from there.

Dr. Schnitzel:

So also if you want to get into a fist fight.

Mr. Giggles:

It's the place to go yeah, it seems to be a good place. Uh, if you want to get maybe kicked at by a homeless man, probably possible there.

Mr. Algebro:

I usually get off there instead of like if I have to go to stefan's plots, I'll get off there instead and walk up and then walk up.

Mr. Giggles:

Oh, it's walk up.

Mr. Algebro:

Especially Christmas time with the big red balls Absolutely.

Mr. Giggles:

All right, great, so we're done.

Mr. Algebro:

Who wins?

Mr. Giggles:

Well, let's review our teams. My team got Cagran, schottentor Landstrasse or Wien Mitte, schwedenplatz, flordsdorf and Karlsplatz. Got a really solid, I mean really for the tourist-minded. Got the center of the city locked up right there, important connection stops, I don't know. Pretty unbeatable team, yeah.

Mr. Algebro:

It's a good team.

Mr. Giggles:

What's your team? I don't like my team. I want to do over. Can we do over?

Mr. Algebro:

can we stop and record over. I've got Prater, prater good choice, solid. I thought yeah that was a good Stubentor Stadtpark. I've got three that are all St St Stubentor Stadtpark, stadthal.

Dr. Schnitzel:

Are you?

Mr. Algebro:

stupid, stupid. And then Adlerklauer Straße and Rathaus.

Mr. Giggles:

Yeah, your pivot from Kegraunerplatz to.

Mr. Algebro:

Adlerklauer was a tough one to watch. That's a better pick.

Dr. Schnitzel:

It's tough to see that collapse.

Mr. Giggles:

Inconsistency in your team yeah, yeah, all right, luki. Do you remember what your team is, did you don't? We have it written down if you need to.

Dr. Schnitzel:

No, I mean I can remember okay, because what I like I did it very spontaneously, obviously, but I found out, like I have a team that has some strong players and a couple of underdogs yeah good, because my strong players are stefan spratz and volkstheater and langenfried gasse, like some connecting ones, but the ones that, like you were surprised about me picking is eiserstrasse, herringasse and donaheinsel, yeah, which are like really not that special I mean first, if you first look at it, I think donaheinsel is in a different, different class.

Mr. Giggles:

Yeah, it's even different. This is kind of like the player that comes in and saves the game Sleeper pick. Yeah.

Dr. Schnitzel:

So I feel like if the underdogs perform well and support the strong players, I think I have a pretty good team.

Mr. Giggles:

Awesome, Well good, All right, Well good draft boys. We'll try to figure out if we can do this with anything else. I had fun. It's too competitive for luke. It's getting pretty cold here. Yeah, like I don't still don't like drafts turn off the fan.

Dr. Schnitzel:

Little fan, all right, well, yeah, hope next time. Yeah, thanks for listening. Glad you got to see me. Yeah, good bye-bye. Was a pleasure, couldn't? Bye-bye.
