  Speaker 1: on the Pink Popca.
• 1:11
  Speaker 2: She did our first ace, first ace in arena slam.
• 1:14
  Speaker 2: She went off the edge. It's pretty cool.
• 1:19
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I just went off the edge and then she
• 1:23
  Speaker 1: took it easy. I feel like a lot of players
• 1:25
  Speaker 1: don't want to hurt me. Do I come off as
• 1:26
  Speaker 1: a fragile except.
• 1:29
  Speaker 2: No, who did want to hurt you? I took my shirt. Yeah,
• 1:33
  Speaker 2: wanted to.
• 1:33
  Speaker 1: Smash Jessica Pagola, whose parents owned the Buffalo Bills, the
• 1:39
  Speaker 1: NFL team. Oh that's why that chat was.
• 1:42
  Speaker 2: Oh my gosh. I'm just like, they started talking about NFL,
• 1:47
  Speaker 2: and look, I know nothing about NFL. I'd like to
• 1:51
  Speaker 2: I feel like I need to get into this sport
• 1:53
  Speaker 2: via someone else. Maybe you might maybe maybe it's you.
• 1:57
  Speaker 1: I'm your gateway.
• 1:58
  Speaker 2: Yeah, and they just started talking about it NFL and
• 2:00
  Speaker 2: I'm just standing there like, I'm giving so many polite
• 2:03
  Speaker 2: nods to you guys, and I couldn't even think. I'm
• 2:05
  Speaker 2: like Bills, Yeah cool.
• 2:08
  Speaker 1: I figure they gotta be sick about talking about tennis.
• 2:11
  Speaker 2: And she.
• 2:13
  Speaker 1: Did, and by the time this podcast drops, the Buffalo
• 2:17
  Speaker 1: Bills would have already played the Denver Broncos. And then
• 2:21
  Speaker 1: she found out I was a Kansas City Chiefs fan
• 2:24
  Speaker 1: at Diehard and she did not like that at all.
• 2:27
  Speaker 2: She didn't know she really.
• 2:29
  Speaker 1: So she took her vengeance out on the ping pong table.
• 2:33
  Speaker 2: That explains it. So parents own a football team.
• 2:36
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I know, and the quarterback for the Buffalo Bills
• 2:40
  Speaker 1: is with Hailey Steinfeld. So now basically by meeting Jessica Pugula.
• 2:44
  Speaker 1: I've kind of also met Hailey Steinfeld pretty much. Do
• 2:47
  Speaker 1: you think about it?
• 2:48
  Speaker 2: Yeah?
• 2:48
  Speaker 1: You know, my wife asked me once if Hailey Steinfeld
• 2:51
  Speaker 1: is related to Jerry Seinfeld, and I was like, are
• 2:56
  Speaker 1: you they're different names? Maybe Hayley Steinfeld who was in Center.
• 3:01
  Speaker 1: She's not like in the movie going, what's up with all.
• 3:04
  Speaker 5: These they want to drink? It's not even.
• 3:09
  Speaker 2: Tasty, Like when did she get the tea? When does
• 3:14
  Speaker 2: that happen?
• 3:14
  Speaker 1: She got the tea? The gossip there. Look, we're a
• 3:17
  Speaker 1: day away from the Australian Open kicking off. You believe
• 3:21
  Speaker 1: that properly. I'm so pumped.
• 3:22
  Speaker 2: I'm actually I actually can't wait for there to be
• 3:26
  Speaker 2: tennis to start. And I can imagine the players are
• 3:28
  Speaker 2: like that too. They have to do so much in
• 3:30
  Speaker 2: this lead up week. I walked through Fed Square this
• 3:33
  Speaker 2: morning and who do I bump into Coco?
• 3:36
  Speaker 1: I thought you were going to say fed.
• 3:37
  Speaker 2: No, it's Coca. I mean we didn't really bump into
• 3:40
  Speaker 2: each other. I just saw her through a window at
• 3:43
  Speaker 2: the new Balance brand activation. I'm like, oh, what's the
• 3:47
  Speaker 2: What's what's going on here? And I saw Cocoa and
• 3:49
  Speaker 2: a team. I'm like, hey, hey, guys, you do you
• 3:52
  Speaker 2: remember me? Do you remember me from yesterday?
• 3:55
  Speaker 1: It's funny. Coco thought me and Andy Lee were the
• 3:58
  Speaker 1: same person.
• 4:00
  Speaker 2: She was like, I believe you got missed the qualies
• 4:03
  Speaker 2: and got straight into the final. Yeah. And I was like,
• 4:05
  Speaker 2: what is she talking?
• 4:06
  Speaker 1: And then I figured it out. I was like, Oh,
• 4:08
  Speaker 1: she thinks plain, generic white guys are all the same. Yeah,
• 4:11
  Speaker 1: she's not wrong.
• 4:12
  Speaker 2: She's not wrong. You are both wearing sweatbands and very tall.
• 4:17
  Speaker 2: I know.
• 4:17
  Speaker 1: I just don't have the billions that has amassed and
• 4:23
  Speaker 1: his ruthless career of squashing the little guy. Yeah. Ah yeah,

  Speaker 2: Yeah, Mike sent me out to get his lunch.
• 4:48
  Speaker 1: Yeah, because I wanted one on one time with Belinda.

  Speaker 1: And I made a joke about her last name. Her
• 4:55
  Speaker 1: last name is bench Itch and I said, oh, bench Itch,
• 4:58
  Speaker 1: that sounds like something you need cream for. And she
• 5:01
  Speaker 1: was like what she was like she was like, what do.
• 5:06
  Speaker 2: You think she had not heard that before? I don't
• 5:09
  Speaker 2: think she just didn't put it together.
• 5:10
  Speaker 1: I'm hoping not put it together.
• 5:12
  Speaker 2: Bench it.
• 5:14
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I committed to the bit. And I feel like
• 5:16
  Speaker 1: we've been sitting in these seats so much. I got
• 5:18
  Speaker 1: a little case of benchi.
• 5:20
  Speaker 2: I feel like it's something you get in a sauna.
• 5:23
  Speaker 2: Oh yeah, a council pool. It's a bit rashyt the bench.
• 5:28
  Speaker 1: It's spreading. We got some big dogs.

  Speaker 5: Though?
• 5:54
  Speaker 2: Maybe if you said, my wife calls you, but can
• 6:00
  Speaker 2: you put that in trouble? I don't think you can't
• 6:05
  Speaker 2: be ras Italians.
• 6:07
  Speaker 1: You heard it here first, Lizzie, who.
• 6:12
  Speaker 2: Decrees Italians a faga.

• 6:30
  Speaker 1: is Pepperoni. Why it's called pepperoni that sausage.
• 6:34
  Speaker 2: Yeah, well I didn't think about it, so you just

  Speaker 5: Yes, that's my biggest fear.
• 24:20
  Speaker 6: And we were in Maldives and we went on the
• 24:23
  Speaker 6: boat like deeper in the ocean, and I mean, I
• 24:26
  Speaker 6: knew that they're not gonna bite me. They were like
• 24:27
  Speaker 6: feeding them with a fish, but still the fear I had,
• 24:30
  Speaker 6: and especially it was so many of them and they
• 24:32
  Speaker 6: were like huge, and they said like keep your arms
• 24:35
  Speaker 6: tied to your body or they just gonna, I don't know,
• 24:38
  Speaker 6: catch it like no, not like not catch you by mistake,
• 24:42
  Speaker 6: even though they don't.
• 24:43
  Speaker 5: Have like that sharp teeth, but still it's like can
• 24:46
  Speaker 5: be dangerous.
• 24:47
  Speaker 6: So I was like this shaking, and then the worst
• 24:50
  Speaker 6: moment for me was when the one shark I looked
• 24:52
  Speaker 6: down and the one shark like swam like like under
• 24:55
  Speaker 6: me and touched my my.
• 24:57
  Speaker 5: Quad and I was like, oh my god, I started,

  Speaker 5: I need to go back on the boat. You need
• 25:01
  Speaker 5: to go back on the ball.
• 25:02
  Speaker 6: But it was so fun and after like I've done that,
• 25:05

  Speaker 6: that too, Master when we did it, he recorded the
• 26:03

• 26:26
  Speaker 5: think so. No, No sharks.
• 26:28
  Speaker 2: So you've conquered the fear of sharks. Are there any
• 26:30
  Speaker 2: other fears you need to conquer?
• 26:32
  Speaker 6: Yes, I'm afraid of snakes, of spiders, even like a small,
• 26:37
  Speaker 6: little tiny spider. I know, I know, yeah, I mean
• 26:43
  Speaker 6: I know that I'm not going to be in the
• 26:44
  Speaker 6: middle of the city, that's for sure. But if someone
• 26:47
  Speaker 6: asked me to go in the forest, no chance.
• 26:50
  Speaker 2: No, I mean I'm not in my whole life that
• 26:54
  Speaker 2: I haven't seen many snakes. No, no, yeah, just one
• 26:57
  Speaker 2: in my roof once, but that's it. God.
• 27:01
  Speaker 6: Once my coach because he used to live here. He
• 27:03
  Speaker 6: was driving the car and he figured that there's the
• 27:05
  Speaker 6: snake on.
• 27:06
  Speaker 1: The under the wheel steering wheel on the.
• 27:12
  Speaker 5: So, I mean.
• 27:15

  Speaker 1: Just quickly. We've been playing a game where we play
• 27:31
  Speaker 1: various grunts from current players in the past, and then
• 27:35
  Speaker 1: you have to guess who it is. Do you want
• 27:37
  Speaker 1: to play?
• 27:39
  Speaker 5: I guess?
• 27:41
  Speaker 1: All right, so let's try this.

• 28:07
  Speaker 5: I can be medveive. But do it again? Can it
• 28:12
  Speaker 5: be a bit like longer? Maybe a couple of points?
• 28:14
  Speaker 1: I feel it feels weird to keep making this. No
• 28:19
  Speaker 1: of that. This sounds like awkward. But can I give more?
• 28:23
  Speaker 4: One more?
