• 1:47
  Speaker 2: and I feel like I get a leg up on everybody. Yeah,
• 1:49
  Speaker 2: and then once the once the week starts, then I
• 1:51
  Speaker 2: take my vacation where everybody's back to work. So I
• 1:54
  Speaker 2: like to flip it. No traffic, everything's clean, smooth. I
• 1:58
  Speaker 2: don't like to go to the beaches when it's packed.
• 2:00
  Speaker 2: I just you know, I just went to Italy and
• 2:02
  Speaker 2: we went to every place that's not tourist like to
• 2:05
  Speaker 2: stay away from the population.
• 2:06
  Speaker 1: This feels a little bit like an am I wrong?
• 2:08
  Speaker 1: Like you look at Labor Day holiday weekend, this is
• 2:12
  Speaker 1: the time to celebrate the unofficial end of summer. You go, No,
• 2:15
  Speaker 1: I live in Arizona, so if the weather's still nice,
• 2:16
  Speaker 1: it is no unofficial end of summer. And I'm with
• 2:20
  Speaker 1: you one hundred percent of avoiding the beach. People like oh,
• 2:22
  Speaker 1: Jersey Shore, one last Kick, I go. You couldn't pay
• 2:24
  Speaker 1: enough dollars together their Labor Day weekend?
• 2:26
  Speaker 2: No way? Yeah, now, chance, it's it's it's like going
• 2:29
  Speaker 2: to dinner Friday Saturday. I understand our lives are some
• 2:33
  Speaker 2: people's lives. You're working a nine to five and you
• 2:36
  Speaker 2: know you don't have the opportunity, But like Friday Saturday,
• 2:40
  Speaker 2: when when everybody's going out and things are packed, I'm
• 2:43
  Speaker 2: not doing that. I'd rather find a way to be
• 2:45
  Speaker 2: tired on a Tuesday and going on a Monday night
• 2:47
  Speaker 2: just because I know I can get to all the
• 2:50
  Speaker 2: best restaurants, best places without anybody that ain't of the
• 2:53
  Speaker 2: riff wrap there. Well, yeah, Jersey, imagine Jersey Shore one
• 2:57
  Speaker 2: last Kick.
• 2:58
  Speaker 1: I was watching the news. I was like, Oh, it's
• 3:00
  Speaker 1: so great out here. You know, I'm just enjoying Ashbury Parking. God, God,
• 3:03
  Speaker 1: you're like, what are you leaven at eight am to
• 3:05
  Speaker 1: get their camping out overnight? Like that's a disaster. I
• 3:07
  Speaker 1: love the beach as much as anybody, but you're right,
• 3:09
  Speaker 1: Labor Day weekend. I am pro barbecue, though. I think
• 3:12
  Speaker 1: a good little barbecue is good.
• 3:13
  Speaker 2: I did a little bit.
• 3:14
  Speaker 1: Yeah, burgers and dogs to the wrong with that little steak.
• 3:18
  Speaker 2: Okay, I have a POV for you guys for that.
• 3:20
  Speaker 2: What's your take because you know you talk about like,
• 3:23
  Speaker 2: you know, getting there at eight a m. Like the
• 3:24
  Speaker 2: people that go to they'll go to like the beach
• 3:27
  Speaker 2: you know in Fort Lauderdale or or in Florida or
• 3:29
  Speaker 2: at these sandals resorts, people run out of like six
• 3:33
  Speaker 2: in the morning and throw their towels down on the
• 3:35
  Speaker 2: set of chairs that are like at the front of
• 3:37
  Speaker 2: the pool. Like, what's your take on that? Like should
• 3:39
  Speaker 2: those people be absolutely? Yeah? Right, Like let's off.
• 3:44
  Speaker 1: If you're there, you're there, don't don't just hoard it. Yeah,
• 3:46
  Speaker 1: Like you're just walking your territory.
• 3:48
  Speaker 3: That's cool.
• 3:48
  Speaker 2: Just mark You're just marking your territory. And then you
• 3:50
  Speaker 2: leave and you sit there all day doing nothing because
• 3:54
  Speaker 2: you want to be close to the pool and get
• 3:56
  Speaker 2: one picture for Instagram.
• 3:57
  Speaker 1: That's weak sauce tow Were you at Labor Day weekend
• 4:00
  Speaker 1: on the fishing again, you are in a warm climate.
• 4:01
  Speaker 1: You're in California. You have you have nice lille all
• 4:03
  Speaker 1: the time. In Jersey, it's different.
• 4:04
  Speaker 4: It was brutal, yeah, and the heat was brutal here
• 4:07
  Speaker 4: over the weekend too. It was I mean, by California standards,
• 4:10
  Speaker 4: by Arizona standards, it probably wasn't that bad. Yeah, exactly
• 4:13
  Speaker 4: ninety one degrees, but it was hot.
• 4:16
  Speaker 2: It was hot. But yeah, we I.
• 4:19
  Speaker 4: It's I feel it feels so long. Like the kids
• 4:21
  Speaker 4: were off Friday at school here, so it's a four
• 4:24
  Speaker 4: day weekend. And a buddy invited me to a barbecue.
• 4:27
  Speaker 4: We went to that. That was about it, and we
• 4:30
  Speaker 4: went out and tried to just keep the ac on.
• 4:32
  Speaker 4: I like the beach, but I don't want to go
• 4:34
  Speaker 4: to the beach on the busiest beach weekend of the
• 4:36
  Speaker 4: whole year. And I'm not a big lay on the
• 4:39
  Speaker 4: beach guy. If I'm going to the beach, I'm in
• 4:41
  Speaker 4: the ocean and I'm hanging out in the ocean. Yeah, yeah,
• 4:46
  Speaker 4: my my pale Eastern European lineage will not let me
• 4:51
  Speaker 4: just bake on the beach for three hours. I can't
• 4:53
  Speaker 4: do it. It'll be it'll be bad. Yeah, yeah, lobster
• 4:57
  Speaker 4: face after that. So I'm definitely not doing that. But
• 5:00
  Speaker 4: we we we had a nice long weekend and but
• 5:03
  Speaker 4: I'm not like, I'm not going all out or anything
• 5:06
  Speaker 4: like that.
• 5:07
  Speaker 5: Yeah.
• 5:07
  Speaker 1: I was gonna ask, what do you think about school
• 5:08
  Speaker 1: being started again? You mentioned in California again, in the
• 5:11
  Speaker 1: East Coast, we start school after labor, which IVE always liked.
• 5:13
  Speaker 1: They grew up like that in Ontario. Do you like
• 5:15
  Speaker 1: the mid August you guys go back to school in California.
• 5:18
  Speaker 2: It's awful out here too. In Arizona, I.
• 5:21
  Speaker 4: Was third week of August. I think the kid, the
• 5:23
  Speaker 4: kid went back to school. I mean I was ready
• 5:25
  Speaker 4: for it. He wasn't ready for it. I was ready
• 5:28
  Speaker 4: for it, that's for damn sure. But it does seem early.
• 5:32
  Speaker 4: It seems like so early it's still summer. It's still summer.
• 5:35
  Speaker 4: I mean, I, hey, get back to school, kid. I
• 5:37
  Speaker 4: don't care if it's July.
• 5:38
  Speaker 2: But they thrown me a horse camp or something.
• 5:43
  Speaker 4: But I feel like if I was going up and
• 5:45
  Speaker 4: I was like Okay, it's August eighteenth, back to school?
• 5:47
  Speaker 4: What's going on here?
• 5:48
  Speaker 2: This?
• 5:49
  Speaker 4: You're like sending me to school on a Saturday. This
• 5:51
  Speaker 4: makes no sense.
• 5:52
  Speaker 1: Yeah, it's a little nuts, but I hear you. Mom
• 5:53
  Speaker 1: and dadd eat a break too. So everyone's back on sweel. Jada,
• 5:57
  Speaker 1: you're on the icepit a week ago for Body Armor
• 5:59
  Speaker 1: with Jason Robertson Luke Hughes. How was it those two
• 6:02
  Speaker 1: young stars again? Robertson's trying to bounce back to season.
• 6:05
  Speaker 1: He was looking for a new contract. I don't know
• 6:07
  Speaker 1: how much you want to divulge with your conversations where,
• 6:09
  Speaker 1: but just how are the vibes of those two guys.
• 6:11
  Speaker 2: No, it's pretty It's honestly a really cool I got
• 6:14
  Speaker 2: a funny story about Jason Robertson at the end, But
• 6:15
  Speaker 2: it's it's a cool commercial they're doing. I'd say it's
• 6:20
  Speaker 2: a YouTube. It's a YouTube video, and it's really cool
• 6:23
  Speaker 2: if the NHL is doing body Armor, and and you know,
• 6:26
  Speaker 2: it was the smartest thing of them to choose me
• 6:27
  Speaker 2: to go there to kind of host it because you
• 6:29
  Speaker 2: know I'll get the most out of them. Thank you,
• 6:31
  Speaker 2: Thank you, NHL. Appreciate it very smart, well done, but no,
• 6:36
  Speaker 2: it's we basically like talk to the guys. And Andrew
• 6:39
  Speaker 2: Ferren's kind of it was his kind of brain child
• 6:42
  Speaker 2: with a couple other people and he works with the league,
• 6:44
  Speaker 2: and we basically like asked the guys, hey, like, what's
• 6:48
  Speaker 2: your kind of What's three things you focus on on
• 6:51
  Speaker 2: the ice and then in the gym and how do
• 6:53
  Speaker 2: those things connect and translate? So it's it's really giving
• 6:56
  Speaker 2: like more access and more in depth to these NHL guys,
• 6:59
  Speaker 2: which I think fans love to see because it's a
• 7:02
  Speaker 2: different mind, Like you get to see inside the of
• 7:04
  Speaker 2: like Jason Robertson, Luke Ques what they think. Some of
• 7:07
  Speaker 2: the guys that we've interviewed are like, you know, they're
• 7:09
  Speaker 2: more like savants where they're like, listen, I don't tend
• 7:12
  Speaker 2: to think too much about certain things and I just
• 7:14
  Speaker 2: kind of feel into things and I feel into the
• 7:16
  Speaker 2: way I should be moving or working out. Then there's
• 7:18
  Speaker 2: other guys like Robertson where when this episode comes out,
• 7:22
  Speaker 2: I you know, he is so a analytical it's it's insane.
• 7:26
  Speaker 2: At everything single inch he thinks of on the ice
• 7:29
  Speaker 2: and where his feet are placed, where his sticky's place
• 7:31
  Speaker 2: and how he watches video to coincide with that. So
• 7:33
  Speaker 2: it was really cool in that respects and Luke Hughes
• 7:36
  Speaker 2: is more like just like I just you know, I
• 7:38
  Speaker 2: just play and I skate and I feel into it
• 7:40
  Speaker 2: and I just want to be an athlete. So those
• 7:43
  Speaker 2: things are really cool. It was a cool format. It
• 7:45
  Speaker 2: was a little touch and go when I did Jason
• 7:47
  Speaker 2: Robertson because like when we did that Pro Athlete Golf Tour,
• 7:51
  Speaker 2: like three weeks before, the Empty Netters guys had me
• 7:54
  Speaker 2: on and you know, I'd thrown a couple of cocktails
• 7:58
  Speaker 2: back and it was the end of the tournament and
• 8:00
  Speaker 2: we're just talking. You know, the empty and Edits guys
• 8:02
  Speaker 2: are great at kind of hosting their way through and
• 8:04
  Speaker 2: they get you to kind of say, shit, that's like
• 8:07
  Speaker 2: on the edge. And they were talking about Jason Robertson
• 8:10
  Speaker 2: being in these trade talks and he hasn't signed yet,
• 8:13
  Speaker 2: and should the Dallas Stars trade Jason Robertson, And I
• 8:17
  Speaker 2: was like, yes they should. I think his one hundred
• 8:21
  Speaker 2: point season was kind of a fluke, but I tied
• 8:24
  Speaker 2: it all together being like he's a great player. He's
• 8:27
  Speaker 2: a really good player, and I think he's you know,
• 8:30
  Speaker 2: I just think for what Dallas needs to get over
• 8:33
  Speaker 2: the hump, they could get some really good players for
• 8:36
  Speaker 2: him that would fill those other needs because I think
• 8:38
  Speaker 2: they have a lot of the same player, Jason Robertson
• 8:40
  Speaker 2: being the lead score of all of them. So what
• 8:42
  Speaker 2: do you think happens? They clip this video the empty
• 8:46
  Speaker 2: Netters guys. They put it on social media a week
• 8:48
  Speaker 2: before I'm there, so I look and they're like trying
• 8:51
  Speaker 2: to get me to collaborate, and it's like me, it's me.
• 8:55
  Speaker 2: The way they cut it, it looks like I'm like, Jason
• 8:57
  Speaker 2: Robertson's a piece of shit. So I'm like, oh my god,
• 9:00
  Speaker 2: I have to go do this. So I'm like, can
• 9:02
  Speaker 2: you guys take this down? So they ended up taking
• 9:05
  Speaker 2: it down, I think, or they probably didn't. So what
• 9:09
  Speaker 2: do you think happens? I show up to Michigan we
• 9:11
  Speaker 2: were filming where they practice, and the day before Andrew
• 9:15
  Speaker 2: Ferrens is like, hey, did you talk about Jason Robertson
• 9:19
  Speaker 2: and like a podcasts and I'm like, yeah, why, what's
• 9:23
  Speaker 2: for somebody else? I was like, yeah, I did, he goes, Oh,
• 9:25
  Speaker 2: he goes. I kind of heard it and He's like
• 9:27
  Speaker 2: you kind of buried him a little bit. He's like
• 9:28
  Speaker 2: you weren't wrong, but like you kind of buried him.
• 9:30
  Speaker 2: And I was like, all I said was like when
• 9:32
  Speaker 2: he had fifty goals, was like a couple of them
• 9:35
  Speaker 2: were off stick skates, and he's he's a thirty forty
• 9:37
  Speaker 2: goal scorer. But I think, like, you know, eighty ninety
• 9:40
  Speaker 2: point guy. So I show up to the rink on
• 9:43
  Speaker 2: the day we're skating. I walked to the rink and
• 9:46
  Speaker 2: Jacob chickering.
• 9:47
  Speaker 1: Before you say anything, tell if it's me. I completely
• 9:50
  Speaker 1: backtrack it. Roberts Goes just sound like, honestly, I'm an idiot.
• 9:54
  Speaker 1: I don't know. I was thinking of that day like
• 9:55
  Speaker 1: I would before he even says it. Word like I'm wrong.
• 9:57
  Speaker 1: Go ahead, j D. I think has no more it's
• 9:59
  Speaker 1: good in the game than me, But go ahead.
• 10:01
  Speaker 4: Jason Robertson will not be appearing on this podcast.
• 10:05
  Speaker 1: I clean it up without really backtracking, say here's what
• 10:09
  Speaker 1: I meant, but go ahead, go ahead.
• 10:11
  Speaker 2: Everything was prefaced by me saying I think he's a
• 10:14
  Speaker 2: great player, like I just it was it. It was,
• 10:17
  Speaker 2: but the way it was framed in the way obviously
• 10:19
  Speaker 2: it's cut and I you could. If I'm an if
• 10:21
  Speaker 2: I'm an athlete, I'd probably take it the wrong I go,
• 10:23
  Speaker 2: fuck you, like whatever. So I show up and they're
• 10:26
  Speaker 2: all skating. You know, it's like Nick Robertson, Jason Robertson,
• 10:30
  Speaker 2: Jacob Chickrien and they skate before we were filming with
• 10:33
  Speaker 2: him on the ice. So I know Jacob Chicken. I'm
• 10:36
  Speaker 2: really close to them, so I didn't even know he's there,
• 10:39
  Speaker 2: so I kind of I kind of screamed, hey, Chicky
• 10:41
  Speaker 2: and he's like, oh my god. So he skates over
• 10:43
  Speaker 2: first thing he says. He goes, hey, Jason Robertson's really
• 10:46
  Speaker 2: mad at you. I went no, It's like an hour
• 10:51
  Speaker 2: before we're shooting.
• 10:52
  Speaker 1: I'm like, oh my god, did you end up collaborating
• 10:55
  Speaker 1: on the ig or no? Yes?
• 10:57
  Speaker 2: Where well on the I g like, I didn't collaborate.
• 11:01
  Speaker 2: This is Oh no, I didn't because I'm not going
• 11:03
  Speaker 2: to call attention to it.
• 11:04
  Speaker 1: I'm gonna call away.
• 11:05
  Speaker 2: Yeah. I'm just like I kind of told him to
• 11:07
  Speaker 2: take it down and and we'll get the empty netters
• 11:09
  Speaker 2: guys on. Maybe they'd love to come on and h
• 11:12
  Speaker 2: and uh and and talk with us, so they'll probably
• 11:15
  Speaker 2: you know anyway. So so I go, oh shit. So
• 11:19
  Speaker 2: I'm like, hey, I didn't mean anything. But he's like yeah,
• 11:21
  Speaker 2: he was like playing it in the room like like yesterday,
• 11:25
  Speaker 2: and I'm like, oh fuck. And I'm like, here it
• 11:27
  Speaker 2: is this and this hasn't happened to me since I've
• 11:29
  Speaker 2: been in broadcasting and stuff because I kind of told
• 11:32
  Speaker 2: the line well and I try to yeah, because I
• 11:36
  Speaker 2: understand what it was like. And and I mean there
• 11:38
  Speaker 2: are some guys that I'm like, I'll never run into.
• 11:40
  Speaker 2: So I'm just like, you know, here's my honest opinion.
• 11:44
  Speaker 2: So he comes on. So he kind of like comes over,
• 11:47
  Speaker 2: and he comes over and I was like, you know,
• 11:50
  Speaker 2: I'm just like I'm like, hey, man, like are you
• 11:52
  Speaker 2: mad at me? I'm like, are you passed?
• 11:54
  Speaker 1: He's like, no, dress off of the room.
• 11:55
  Speaker 2: He's like no, He's like no, all good. He's like
• 11:57
  Speaker 2: all good, all good. So it's like very but it's
• 11:59
  Speaker 2: like very kind of a little stand office, and I.
• 12:04
  Speaker 1: Got doesn't feel it all good. Like it feels like so.
• 12:06
  Speaker 2: Kind of everybody now is on like pins and needles,
• 12:08
  Speaker 2: Like the producers are like holy fuck, and like Andrew
• 12:11
  Speaker 2: Ferrens is like Jesus and I'm like, hey, man, like
• 12:13
  Speaker 2: I'll address it. So he kind of was like a
• 12:15
  Speaker 2: little bit like standoffish, and you know, I was like,
• 12:19
  Speaker 2: oh shit, So I'm like and then you gotta be
• 12:20
  Speaker 2: on camera. I gotta be like, hey, I'm here with
• 12:23
  Speaker 2: superstar Jason Robertson. So so we do the intro and
• 12:27
  Speaker 2: then it was kind of like a light switch and
• 12:29
  Speaker 2: we started you know, it's for kids and for youth athletes,
• 12:32
  Speaker 2: and I mean, he was amazing, Like he just kind
• 12:34
  Speaker 2: of got into depth about talking about analytics and how
• 12:37
  Speaker 2: he's pissed off that he doesn't get the respect he
• 12:39
  Speaker 2: deserves through analytics because you know, he might not be
• 12:44
  Speaker 2: the fastest on paper or stuff like that. So and
• 12:46
  Speaker 2: we had a great conversation. We did a great job.
• 12:48
  Speaker 2: He did an amazing job. I think it's gonna be
• 12:50
  Speaker 2: probably the best, the best episode out of the four.
• 12:55
  Speaker 2: And he was just great. And then you know, it
• 12:57
  Speaker 2: was kind of like hey man, congrats, good luck, and
• 13:00
  Speaker 2: see you after and he was gone. But it was
• 13:02
  Speaker 2: like I'm like, oh no, oh, now, well listen, you
• 13:05
  Speaker 2: did top backtrack from your words. You just said we're good,
• 13:08
  Speaker 2: and he say, yeah, we're good. You're like, okay, whether
• 13:10
  Speaker 2: we are or not, let's just go ahead and do this.
• 13:12
  Speaker 2: He was a total prong camera, which you were as well.
• 13:14
  Speaker 2: To me, that's about as good as it could have gone. Yeah,
• 13:17
  Speaker 2: it's good other than us having like a beer and
• 13:18
  Speaker 2: going out and so and then going on. I just
• 13:21
  Speaker 2: think is as good as it could have went. But
• 13:23
  Speaker 2: I wish he had.
• 13:24
  Speaker 1: Only said a little bit of what he was annoyed by,
• 13:25
  Speaker 1: but were good, like, yeah, I just didn't what you said.
• 13:27
  Speaker 1: Then you'd be like, okay, Like, let's be honest. You're
• 13:29
  Speaker 1: a little chap like that.
• 13:29
  Speaker 2: That's I'm an air Yeah, yeah, I'm an airing agreements
• 13:33
  Speaker 2: this guy.
• 13:34
  Speaker 1: You go, okay, I totally got dude, Like I hear him.
• 13:35
  Speaker 1: It is my perfective. I did see you're a great player.
• 13:37
  Speaker 1: I do think a lot think just my thought all good,
• 13:40
  Speaker 1: Like just just make the point and then we're totally fine.
• 13:43
  Speaker 2: As you know, having working with me, right, And I
• 13:47
  Speaker 2: won't sit on camera, but I will air grievances if
• 13:49
  Speaker 2: they need to be aired. And but I'm just like,
• 13:52
  Speaker 2: it's not from a place of hate, it's just a
• 13:54
  Speaker 2: place of hay, let's get this all out there.
• 13:57
  Speaker 1: Yep.
• 13:57
  Speaker 2: And let's get it. Let's get it, let's get it out.
• 14:00
  Speaker 2: Just air the dirty, launch it. But yeah, he But honestly,
• 14:03
  Speaker 2: I when I left, I was like and I said
• 14:06
  Speaker 2: bye to him, and I was like, hey man, I
• 14:07
  Speaker 2: got a newfound respect for you. And I kind of
• 14:10
  Speaker 2: was like I hate Crow, Like I had to eat
• 14:12
  Speaker 2: Crow live in color and just be like this is it.
• 14:16
  Speaker 2: Like I was like, I was wrong, and I really
• 14:19
  Speaker 2: do respect who he is as a player more.
• 14:21
  Speaker 1: I don't know if you wrong. You were, You didn't
• 14:24
  Speaker 1: ever you said he's a great player. You're just saying
• 14:25
  Speaker 1: you can make a move, that's all. So I don't
• 14:27
  Speaker 1: even think you ate Crow. I think you just said
• 14:28
  Speaker 1: he's great. I just think a move would be beneficial,
• 14:30
  Speaker 1: that's all.
• 14:31
  Speaker 2: Jason robertson over one hundred points next to your Bookhet.
• 14:35
  Speaker 1: Bucket Demurs motivated demurs. In effect, it makes me think
• 14:39
  Speaker 1: about a couple of things. One, you know, I asked
• 14:41
  Speaker 1: Joe Buck once time years ago for advice, and he said,
• 14:43
  Speaker 1: you know, the best advice is dad Jack Buck gave
• 14:45
  Speaker 1: him because you know, it's a hard sport, it's a
• 14:48
  Speaker 1: hard game, and that doesn't mean you have to like
• 14:50
  Speaker 1: kiss their ass. But if you're going to be critical, like,
• 14:53
  Speaker 1: you'd better have some backup. So if you say, demurse
• 14:56
  Speaker 1: stinks out there, you know, okay, but you better know
• 15:00
  Speaker 1: what you're talking about, Like, you better be at minus
• 15:02
  Speaker 1: five and you like have proof that he was looking this.
• 15:04
  Speaker 1: If you just like this guy sucks, like you better
• 15:06
  Speaker 1: back it up because, as you said, these guys know
• 15:08
  Speaker 1: how hard it is. There's this many people in the
• 15:11
  Speaker 1: world that can do what they're doing. So if guy's
• 15:14
  Speaker 1: a tough night, it's seven a tough night. I wish
• 15:15
  Speaker 1: you could better. So, like as you said, you're fine
• 15:17
  Speaker 1: about towing the line. Your job is to be critical,
• 15:19
  Speaker 1: to be honest and say he needs me better in
• 15:21
  Speaker 1: this department. He's a better player than that. But it
• 15:23
  Speaker 1: is a stark reminder someone's always listening. And my thought
• 15:26
  Speaker 1: was always this, Jason Robertson has better things to do
• 15:28
  Speaker 1: than listen to Jason Dumurr's on empty netters. But the
• 15:32
  Speaker 1: entourage of Jason Robertson will get it too. So a cousin,
• 15:35
  Speaker 1: a brother, Adam, a friend, that's the guy that goes, hey, yo,
• 15:37
  Speaker 1: just you know this guy says some shit about you,
• 15:39
  Speaker 1: You go, oh shit.
• 15:40
  Speaker 2: Well, that, you know, like Adam Fox's dad like does
• 15:42
  Speaker 2: not like me apparently, cause I because I said again,
• 15:49
  Speaker 2: the line is towed. And I say, guys in the
• 15:53
  Speaker 2: league said they like playing against Adam Fox in the playoffs,
• 15:56
  Speaker 2: and I said that it's not a knock on Adam Fox.
• 15:58
  Speaker 2: That's a knock on the New York Rangers not getting
• 16:00
  Speaker 2: a guy to protect him. What does the Rangers do
• 16:02
  Speaker 2: this year? They go get gabrick Off, perfect compliment to
• 16:06
  Speaker 2: Adam Fox. I think Adam Fox has a bounce back here,
• 16:09
  Speaker 2: but his dad heard it. Dad thinks I'm a piece
• 16:12
  Speaker 2: of shit. Adam Fox's dad apologies. I'm sorry.
• 16:16
  Speaker 1: Well this year, Jason Robinson, Adam Fox coming soon an
• 16:18
  Speaker 1: NHL and script. I think it's gonna happen. Let's just
• 16:20
  Speaker 1: stay positive. The good vibes are coming. Great story though
• 16:22
  Speaker 1: about you, guys talking together. Been two weeks since Frank
• 16:25
  Speaker 1: Naser signed a seventy year, forty six million dollar extension
• 16:28
  Speaker 1: to playing just fifty three games the Blackhawks. Plenty of
• 16:31
  Speaker 1: buzz around this deal falls the trend of young players
• 16:33
  Speaker 1: getting major term very early. Owen Power seven years, fifty
• 16:36
  Speaker 1: eight point four five million Buffalo when he was twenty
• 16:39
  Speaker 1: your Ice left Cosky's signing his eight years sixty million
• 16:42
  Speaker 1: with the Habs, Jackson Blake eight year forty five Last season,
• 16:46
  Speaker 1: UTUH gave Dylan Gunther eight years fifty seven million for
• 16:49
  Speaker 1: playing seventy eight games, and the big suscension could be
• 16:51
  Speaker 1: coming soon for Connor ber Dark. What do you make jd.
• 16:54
  Speaker 1: Young guys cashing in big the term and the dollars.
• 16:58
  Speaker 2: And it just means I played in the NHL before
• 17:01
  Speaker 2: I should have because you know, you're looking at that
• 17:04
  Speaker 2: your deal a lot more that potential. But it's just
• 17:07
  Speaker 2: things have shifted now, you know where it's a young
• 17:09
  Speaker 2: man's league. You're paying for potential. Now you're not paying
• 17:13
  Speaker 2: for You're not paying for what a kid has done.
• 17:16
  Speaker 2: Now you know, you know, Frank Naser has played about
• 17:19
  Speaker 2: fifty six games, Like that is crazy to me to
• 17:23
  Speaker 2: expect to get that amount of money after fifty six games.
• 17:26
  Speaker 2: But they obviously, whether they're right or wrong, the Chicago Blackhawks,
• 17:30
  Speaker 2: they see potential. They think that this will end up
• 17:34
  Speaker 2: becoming a bargain because that's what you're typically doing as
• 17:36
  Speaker 2: a team, as you'll be like, well, if I give
• 17:37
  Speaker 2: him this much money, by the time the contract reaches maturity,
• 17:41
  Speaker 2: will be in a good place, the salary cap will
• 17:43
  Speaker 2: go up, We'll be fine. And that's what you do
• 17:45
  Speaker 2: with the youth guys. Now it's not so much approve
• 17:47
  Speaker 2: it league anymore. I think there are still levels of
• 17:51
  Speaker 2: that for players, but you know, the young prospects don't
• 17:54
  Speaker 2: have to prove as much. They just have to kind
• 17:56
  Speaker 2: of show that there is potential and there is a
• 17:59
  Speaker 2: ceiling to get to and then you know, I listen,
• 18:01
  Speaker 2: I'm all for guys getting paid. I know my player,
• 18:04
  Speaker 2: he's like, fuck this guy. But the taking a step back,
• 18:09
  Speaker 2: I think it's great for the league. And it's also
• 18:13
  Speaker 2: it's a lot lower risk for teams to do this
• 18:17
  Speaker 2: versus pay guy that's twenty six twenty seven pay him
• 18:20
  Speaker 2: an eight year deal, because you don't know if by
• 18:22
  Speaker 2: the time the guy hits thirty thirty one, you know, injuries,
• 18:26
  Speaker 2: he really falls off a cliff.
• 18:28
  Speaker 1: It's that's what I want to ask you. How much
• 18:31
  Speaker 1: damage is a cost as team if your ice left
• 18:33
  Speaker 1: costka ends up being a bust, if he's not an
• 18:35
  Speaker 1: eight million dollars a year player, if he's a four
• 18:38
  Speaker 1: million dollars year player, how damaging is that in terms
• 18:41
  Speaker 1: of the cap, in terms of giving that much term
• 18:42
  Speaker 1: to that guy for that long.
• 18:44
  Speaker 2: Well, it's it's it can be. But I feel like
• 18:47
  Speaker 2: teams will take the exit, and I think other teams
• 18:50
  Speaker 2: are still you look at Zegres in Philly.
• 18:53
  Speaker 1: You can you can flip a guy. Yeah, you could.
• 18:55
  Speaker 2: Still get a trade because people still think, well, there
• 18:58
  Speaker 2: is the potential there. He can still play out his contract.
• 19:02
  Speaker 2: He's got a couple of years left on it, and
• 19:04
  Speaker 2: if he doesn't perform, we just resigned him to a
• 19:06
  Speaker 2: cheap deal. So there's still that level there where it's
• 19:09
  Speaker 2: like you haven't out and I think teams recognize that
• 19:12
  Speaker 2: if now you know you look at myself. You know
• 19:15
  Speaker 2: I got signed to a five year deal and teams
• 19:20
  Speaker 2: that I'm thirty three, thirty four, and teams are like, well,
• 19:23
  Speaker 2: I don't want to take a flyer on this amount
• 19:25
  Speaker 2: of money because if it does work out, I'll just
• 19:28
  Speaker 2: let this contract play out, let this team eat it,
• 19:31
  Speaker 2: and sign him to a PTO and then if he
• 19:33
  Speaker 2: makes his way back, then it's great for me. And
• 19:35
  Speaker 2: it's even cheaper versus a young guy. You're like, well,
• 19:38
  Speaker 2: I can still get this guy. He's still got eight
• 19:40
  Speaker 2: nine years left of playing potentially, so this is also
• 19:44
  Speaker 2: a bargain in itself. So it just it just opens
• 19:47
  Speaker 2: the door for gms, I think, to be a little
• 19:49
  Speaker 2: bit more creative, and I think it's a way to circumvent,
• 19:53
  Speaker 2: you know, not paying the older guys and not getting
• 19:57
  Speaker 2: stuck with these long contracts when guys are thirty four
• 19:59
  Speaker 2: to thirty five and having to pay like the Rick
• 20:01
  Speaker 2: Dpa tros and having to pay guys for ten years.
• 20:03
  Speaker 2: It's just you just save yourself that trouble. So I
• 20:07
  Speaker 2: think it's a it's just a sneaky way of GM's
• 20:11
  Speaker 2: kind of circumventing the cap and finding a way to
• 20:15
  Speaker 2: you know, have the best team possible.
• 20:17
  Speaker 1: Yeah, like I said, if you're missing a guy, I
• 20:18
  Speaker 1: can always try to flip him, convince yourself a change
• 20:20
  Speaker 1: the scenery. He can be walking with someone. As that
• 20:21
  Speaker 1: does happen, a guy does need to can move on
• 20:23
  Speaker 1: somewhere else. Bruins lost and Patrice Burgraun mostly been raising
• 20:26
  Speaker 1: his family since playing his last game in Boston twenty
• 20:28
  Speaker 1: twenty three. He got fans buzzing online. Last week. Cortex
• 20:32
  Speaker 1: Hockey released a real Bergoun practicing face offs with Will
• 20:35
  Speaker 1: Smith of the Sharks and Alex Newhook of the Habs.
• 20:37
  Speaker 1: Anyone better these young guys could learn face offs from
• 20:41
  Speaker 1: and Patrice Berghum, do you seem at some point g
• 20:42
  Speaker 1: to being back in the league, maybe with the Bruins
• 20:45
  Speaker 1: coaching scouting something that have Patrice burs run back in
• 20:48
  Speaker 1: the HL. Well.
• 20:49
  Speaker 2: I saw him three weeks ago and we I kind
• 20:52
  Speaker 2: of asked him that question. So I was doing a
• 20:54
  Speaker 2: little journalistic work on top of all the other hats
• 20:57
  Speaker 2: that I wear. So and he, you know, right now,
• 21:00
  Speaker 2: he's just worrying about taking care of his kids. Uh,
• 21:03
  Speaker 2: he's around the rink. His wife is who's amazing, is
• 21:07
  Speaker 2: is also a you know, she's in school and finishing
• 21:12
  Speaker 2: up her masters. I think so he's kind of letting
• 21:14
  Speaker 2: her kind of chase down her dreams and then I
• 21:17
  Speaker 2: think he's eventually going to kind of slide back into it.
• 21:20
  Speaker 2: But he looks fantastic. He's he's like doing high rocks
• 21:24
  Speaker 2: those high rockses and training and could probably still play.
• 21:28
  Speaker 2: But I think he does have a taste for the
• 21:31
  Speaker 2: game and loves being around the rink. And a guy
• 21:33
  Speaker 2: like that will just if he ever wants to, he
• 21:36
  Speaker 2: ever wants to get a job anywhere. It'll be the
• 21:40
  Speaker 2: minute he says. Yeah, It's kind of like Joe Thornton,
• 21:43
  Speaker 2: you know, with San Jose. They just want him around
• 21:45
  Speaker 2: the rink in any capacity. So I can see him
• 21:47
  Speaker 2: being an advisor something like that in the next you know,
• 21:50
  Speaker 2: four or five years and eventually getting into the league.
• 21:53
  Speaker 1: Yeah, Hyena likes highly well liked. Still young enough. They
• 21:56
  Speaker 1: can relate to all these players, There's no doubt about it.
• 21:58
  Speaker 1: Last thing before we get to our special guest, Tyson
• 22:00
  Speaker 1: Barry your Sharks giving away a special Maclin celebrity Will
• 22:04
  Speaker 1: Smith sleepover Bobblehead this season. If fans want to complete
• 22:08
  Speaker 1: the set, they can buy a special Tyler to fully
• 22:10
  Speaker 1: attachment guest of NHL and Scripted to add to the
• 22:14
  Speaker 1: limited edition Bobblehead. Jad In terms of Bobbleheads, just where
• 22:17
  Speaker 1: you at in general pro bobblehead, anti bobblehead. You see
• 22:20

• 22:25
  Speaker 1: wheread you have with the ball Bobblehead Craze.
• 22:28
  Speaker 2: I don't think I ever sniffed anywhere close to a
• 22:32
  Speaker 2: bibblehead anywhere in my life, Like, unless I sled you
• 22:35
  Speaker 2: a bit, wait, unless they want an Ali Baba myself.
• 22:38
  Speaker 1: I bought created a Jason Demurse bobble Yeah, I mean
• 22:42
  Speaker 1: I think for the top guys.
• 22:44
  Speaker 2: Yeah, you know, you fans anything to to make a
• 22:47
  Speaker 2: little cash for the organization. I think fans will buy
• 22:50
  Speaker 2: it in droves. I don't like just a bobblehead night
• 22:53
  Speaker 2: every week, you know, I think that's just a little ridiculous.
• 22:56
  Speaker 2: But you know it's it's just little things that kids like,
• 22:59
  Speaker 2: and you know, parents buy for their kids their favorite player.
• 23:02
  Speaker 2: And I'm got indifferent to it. Honestly. It's like one
• 23:05
  Speaker 2: of those things that it doesn't really you know, doesn't
• 23:08
  Speaker 2: make my dick hard, but it doesn't make it soft either.
• 23:10
  Speaker 1: It's just that's the kind of expression I was opening
• 23:14
  Speaker 1: a boy, been thinking of bobble heads. But now we'll
• 23:16
  Speaker 1: always have that in my mind. I can't wait for
• 23:18
  Speaker 1: the next you know that was something like that. Yeah,
• 23:21
  Speaker 1: it doesn't make my dick, cart doesn't make it soft either, Like, well,
• 23:23
  Speaker 1: I can come see it comesaf What do you think
• 23:25
  Speaker 1: of this bobble had specifically, at least the innovative nature
• 23:28
  Speaker 1: of it celebrating Smith's sleepover. Do you at least appreciate
• 23:31
  Speaker 1: the thought process behind it or is it trying too hard?
• 23:36
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I listen, I can't say anything bad about the Sharks,
• 23:38
  Speaker 2: but it's a lot I just don't. Yeah, it's like
• 23:40
  Speaker 2: unless it's like unless there's only like ten of them,
• 23:44
  Speaker 2: you know, like collector's items. You want it to be
• 23:46
  Speaker 2: collector's items, right, So yeah, you know, I'm like tenn
• 23:49
  Speaker 2: of they'se you raffle them off. Half goes to charity, Uh,
• 23:52
  Speaker 2: the Sharks Foundation. You've had a big number, and you'd
• 23:55
  Speaker 2: probably sell more of them, you know, you'd sell them
• 23:57
  Speaker 2: for bigger, bigger numbers. Right then people have these collector's items,
• 24:01
  Speaker 2: if you know, Maclin celebrity and will Smith do what
• 24:03
  Speaker 2: we think they're going to do and just beat stars.
• 24:06
  Speaker 2: But yeah, otherwise it's kind of like just an interesting one.
• 24:08
  Speaker 2: It's like, I don't know, it's a little weird. Too young,
• 24:10
  Speaker 2: two kids that aren't legal sleeping over.
• 24:13
  Speaker 1: It's a little bit like a broke Back Mountain type
• 24:15
  Speaker 1: bubble mack will Swiss sleep over bubbleief?
• 24:18
  Speaker 2: Do we not know? The kids? Not twenty one?
• 24:20
  Speaker 1: So it feels like.
• 24:25
  Speaker 2: Just a touch, yeah, just a touch of predatorial, yes,
• 24:28
  Speaker 2: so not that kind of pat and the older big
• 24:33
  Speaker 2: brother is in there as well, Tyler and.
• 24:35
  Speaker 1: The times at that part, it's just like third man.
• 24:37
  Speaker 1: I'm I'm not sure if that's necessary. It's a limited
• 24:40
  Speaker 1: edition where my mind goes and you know, that's just
• 24:44
  Speaker 1: like I said, I like producer tal has beat red
• 24:47
  Speaker 1: once again. Nor thoughts on baba, Tell do you collect baba?
• 24:51
  Speaker 1: You ever had a baba in your house? You must
• 24:52
  Speaker 1: have a cow was thinking of that Stefan babo head
• 24:54
  Speaker 1: meets before that time.
• 24:55
  Speaker 4: But something I don't actively collect them or anything like
• 24:58
  Speaker 4: that there. And listen, fans want to get something for free, right,
• 25:01
  Speaker 4: they're paying a lot to go to these games. They're
• 25:04
  Speaker 4: collect to bulls. Maybe if you're lucky, you'll get you'll
• 25:06
  Speaker 4: get your your celebrinee Will Smith sleepover bobblehead, you know, autographed.
• 25:12
  Speaker 4: I don't know. I think it's a nice touch. I think, look,
• 25:14
  Speaker 4: all these teams are trying to add a little value
• 25:17
  Speaker 4: to the overall experience, and this is part of the
• 25:19
  Speaker 4: way to do it. I think, you know, the sleepover
• 25:22
  Speaker 4: thing went viral for a little while last season. I
• 25:25
  Speaker 4: think they're they're trying to get that thing going again.
• 25:28
  Speaker 4: Who knows, maybe they'll do some more sleepover videos. I
• 25:31
  Speaker 4: have no idea what's going on with this, but it's
• 25:34
  Speaker 4: perfectly innocent. Come on, fellas. But yeah, I think it
• 25:37
  Speaker 4: looks cool. But I think if you're getting it, you
• 25:39
  Speaker 4: have to get the tyler to fully add on, it's
• 25:41
  Speaker 4: kind of pointless if you're not going out and paying
• 25:44
  Speaker 4: to get the addition.
• 25:46

  Speaker 4: the number.

  Speaker 1: Tell the body and they just had a sleepover. I
• 26:27
  Speaker 1: beg your pardon, like they have like a tree house.
• 26:29
  Speaker 1: I just got it together.
• 26:31
  Speaker 2: Question tell question for you what do you do with
• 26:34
  Speaker 2: the mic are you? Are you like touch auto muting
• 26:37
  Speaker 2: and unmuting yourself. That's the button right there. That's it.
• 26:42
  Speaker 4: That's the button. I don't know if you're if you
• 26:44
  Speaker 4: have the same model. It turns it's green when it's
• 26:46
  Speaker 4: it's green when it's on, and it turns red when
• 26:49
  Speaker 4: you when you touch it. That's what I've been.
• 26:51
  Speaker 2: Doing, folks listening the technology scary.
• 26:55
  Speaker 1: It dovetails perfectly the next topic because sadly my microphone
• 26:58
  Speaker 1: was not green when I touched it. The audio not ideal,
• 27:00
  Speaker 1: But you're gonna love this se interview. Nonetheless, Tyson Barry
• 27:03
  Speaker 1: is a terrific dude. He's got great stories from playing
• 27:05
  Speaker 1: with the Avalanche. Interesting story with the Leafs, Patrick Wad,
• 27:08
  Speaker 1: the oilers, all that more. Tyson Burry recently retired on
• 27:11
  Speaker 1: to his next adventures. It's coming up right after this
• 27:26
  Speaker 1: our next castwer is draft in the third round, sixty
• 27:28
  Speaker 1: fourth overall by the Colorado Avalanche of the two thousand
• 27:30
  Speaker 1: and nine NHL Draft. He quickly turned into a standout
• 27:33
  Speaker 1: offensive defenseman, collecting five hundred and eight points in eight
• 27:36
  Speaker 1: hundred and twenty two games with the Avalanche. Maple leaves oilers,
• 27:38
  Speaker 1: petitors and flames before recently announcing his retirement. We're thrilled
• 27:42
  Speaker 1: to have him here. He's a very patient manager in
• 27:44
  Speaker 1: addition to being a terrific hockey player. Tyson Barry, good
• 27:46
  Speaker 1: to see you, buddy.
• 27:47
  Speaker 3: How you doing, Yeah, thanks for having me. I appreciate
• 27:50
  Speaker 3: you guys. Troubleshooting the last time.
• 27:53
  Speaker 1: We'll forever being dead. It's your patients for techo difficulties. Listen, man,
• 27:57
  Speaker 1: congrats are an awesome career. I know it's tough maybe
• 28:00
  Speaker 1: in some ways to reflect on everything. But what's it
• 28:02
  Speaker 1: been like for you since making that big announcement.
• 28:04
  Speaker 5: Well, it's honestly been been great.
• 28:07
  Speaker 3: You know, obviously very very grateful to have played in
• 28:10
  Speaker 3: the league as long as I did, but kind of
• 28:13
  Speaker 3: taking a load off and the initial announcement there was
• 28:16
  Speaker 3: a lot of you know, congrats and a lot of
• 28:20
  Speaker 3: really nice messages, a bunch of interviews to get through
• 28:22
  Speaker 3: and stuff, and then it kind of settled down and
• 28:25
  Speaker 3: really just kind of enjoying some downtime on the island
• 28:27
  Speaker 3: here and yeah, really it's kind of just chilling out.
• 28:32
  Speaker 2: Was it like a long decision because I know you
• 28:34
  Speaker 2: kind of joked that it was a mutual decision between
• 28:37
  Speaker 2: you and all thirty two teams. But was it something
• 28:39
  Speaker 2: that you had kind of been thinking about and did
• 28:41
  Speaker 2: you kick around maybe going to Europe and continuing to play,
• 28:44
  Speaker 2: or was it just you know, you felt it in
• 28:46
  Speaker 2: your bones that it was time.
• 28:48
  Speaker 5: Yeah, I think.
• 28:51
  Speaker 1: You know.
• 28:51
  Speaker 3: Obviously, last year free agency I didn't have much I
• 28:53
  Speaker 3: went on a Pieto to Calgary that obviously kind of
• 28:59
  Speaker 3: didn't go the way I would have liked it. So
• 29:01
  Speaker 3: about after I'd been health bomb for like ninety straight days,
• 29:04
  Speaker 3: I thought that retirement might be on the horizon. So
• 29:08
  Speaker 3: I had a good kind of runway to wrap my
• 29:10
  Speaker 3: head around it. I thought about going over to Switzerland.
• 29:13
  Speaker 3: There was a team that I was really interested in.
• 29:15
  Speaker 3: They decided to go a different direction, which was devastating,
• 29:19
  Speaker 3: but that's okay. And then after that I just kind
• 29:21
  Speaker 3: of thought, you know what, I'm just going to hang
• 29:24
  Speaker 3: them up. I got been very blessed to play a
• 29:27
  Speaker 3: lot of years and make a good living, and I've
• 29:29
  Speaker 3: got two young kids, and I just you know, I've
• 29:32
  Speaker 3: got a lot of other passions and interest outside of hockey,
• 29:35
  Speaker 3: So it was just kind of a natural, natural progression.
• 29:38
  Speaker 1: Hey, man. Definitely making the right decision. Tyson. Let's reflect
• 29:41
  Speaker 1: in your career obviously so many great moments. You know,
• 29:43
  Speaker 1: you're a key young player in Colorado. After you get
• 29:45
  Speaker 1: through the rest of that course is to come in McKinnon, Landiskog,
• 29:48
  Speaker 1: Ranton and mccarr who stuck out for you the most
• 29:51
  Speaker 1: when you were there.
• 29:51
  Speaker 3: In Colorado, like as people are players, because I either
• 29:56
  Speaker 3: I think as players. I mean I think if if
• 30:00
  Speaker 3: you've been watching following the game at all, McKinnon and
• 30:02
  Speaker 3: mccarr have been pretty good for the last round. No,
• 30:06
  Speaker 3: I mean, Nate's one of my best friends, lands Coogg,
• 30:10
  Speaker 3: Eric Johnson, really good people, Miko Granton and uh I play.
• 30:14
  Speaker 3: I mean I played with so many guys there and
• 30:16
  Speaker 3: so many good teammates. But yeah, just to watch kind
• 30:19
  Speaker 3: of Nate turn into a bit of a generational player
• 30:21
  Speaker 3: and Kale and you know what they've been able to do.
• 30:24
  Speaker 3: You know, they obviously hoisted one there and then individually
• 30:27
  Speaker 3: they've kind of collected it all.
• 30:28
  Speaker 5: So, uh, you know, really.
• 30:30
  Speaker 3: Grateful I got to start my career there and kind
• 30:32
  Speaker 3: of piggyback Nate to a couple of big seasons, And yeah,
• 30:36
  Speaker 3: I always always love going back to Denver, and I
• 30:39
  Speaker 3: feel like as a second home for.
• 30:41
  Speaker 2: Me to talk about, Like, you've played with so many
• 30:44
  Speaker 2: superstars and and you know, some would call him like
• 30:47
  Speaker 2: very you know, you talk about the Nates, and we
• 30:49
  Speaker 2: hear stories about Nate, how serious he is and and
• 30:52
  Speaker 2: how dialed in he is. And you're a very serious
• 30:54
  Speaker 2: guy on the ice and you're playing, but you're also listen.
• 30:57
  Speaker 2: You you joke, you're lighthearted. You you want to keep
• 31:01
  Speaker 2: things light in the room. So it's like, for you,
• 31:04
  Speaker 2: how did that always work? Coming in and dealing with
• 31:06
  Speaker 2: guys like that and making sure that you know you're
• 31:09
  Speaker 2: an integral part of that team as well, and those
• 31:11
  Speaker 2: teams because you're able to keep things light and keep
• 31:13
  Speaker 2: those guys not so serious.
• 31:17
  Speaker 3: I think Nate's obviously very detailed and super you know,
• 31:22
  Speaker 3: dialed when it comes to hockey, and there's a time
• 31:25
  Speaker 3: and a place for me for that. But the majority
• 31:27
  Speaker 3: of the time, I was just trying to keep keep
• 31:30
  Speaker 3: it light. And you know, I think you could laugh
• 31:34
  Speaker 3: or cry as kind of the saying, and I just
• 31:36
  Speaker 3: always chose to laugh.
• 31:37
  Speaker 5: And even when things.
• 31:39
  Speaker 3: Got a little bit I probably laughed sometimes when I
• 31:41
  Speaker 3: shouldn't have, But I think guys appreciate that, and it's
• 31:44
  Speaker 3: okay to you know, kind of find the humor in
• 31:46
  Speaker 3: most things and keep it.
• 31:47
  Speaker 2: Light coming in. You talked about Nate dog Like, you know,
• 31:51
  Speaker 2: talk about those teams early on when when Nate was
• 31:54
  Speaker 2: there and how he changed the vibe. And also just
• 31:57
  Speaker 2: you know who for you was somebody when you came
• 31:59
  Speaker 2: into the league that really helped you kind of get
• 32:01
  Speaker 2: your feet and teach you things that you might have
• 32:04
  Speaker 2: learned when you're in Colowna.
• 32:06
  Speaker 3: Yeah, two fold a question. I think I'll start with,
• 32:11
  Speaker 3: you know guys that kind of brought me in and
• 32:13
  Speaker 3: put me under the ring wing right away. Paul Stasney.
• 32:17
  Speaker 3: I had the chance to meet him when I was
• 32:19
  Speaker 3: like seventeen. He was golfing out on the island and
• 32:22
  Speaker 3: I went and had some beers with him and his
• 32:23
  Speaker 3: buddies and he was awesome. And then I got to
• 32:25
  Speaker 3: Colorado and he you know, invited me over to his house,
• 32:28
  Speaker 3: took me to the bar, was inviting me to dinner
• 32:30
  Speaker 3: and just kind of you know, Paul was a great
• 32:34
  Speaker 3: leader and he showed me how to operate, and you know,
• 32:37
  Speaker 3: he was always super hard working, dedicated at the rink,
• 32:40
  Speaker 3: and then away from the rink, it was you know,
• 32:42
  Speaker 3: good times and fun and so I'm always grateful to
• 32:45
  Speaker 3: STATS for that. And then Ryan O'Byrne, a local island guy,
• 32:49
  Speaker 3: he got traded from Montreal to Colorado, so he he
• 32:54
  Speaker 3: grabbed me right away, put me next to him on
• 32:55
  Speaker 3: the plane, and you know, he was a true pro,
• 32:59
  Speaker 3: but same kind of thing, you know, kind of taught
• 33:02
  Speaker 3: me how to have fun away from the rink and
• 33:03
  Speaker 3: be a part of the group and and be a leader.
• 33:06
  Speaker 5: So very grateful to those two guys.
• 33:09
  Speaker 3: I'd love to say I learned how to I'd love
• 33:11
  Speaker 3: to say I picked up a few things on the
• 33:12
  Speaker 3: ice from Ryano Burham, but I was, yeah, I still
• 33:16
  Speaker 3: don't look the other way to follow. Uh, you know,
• 33:20
  Speaker 3: Wolves is great. And then with Nate, I think Nate
• 33:24
  Speaker 3: came in he was raw. I met him when he
• 33:26
  Speaker 3: was seventeen and we roomed together his first year, and
• 33:30
  Speaker 3: you know, we both had lots to learn. Oh, And
• 33:33
  Speaker 3: I'd be remiss if I didn't say Ryan o' riiley
• 33:35
  Speaker 3: as well. He was he was the same age, but
• 33:37
  Speaker 3: he'd already been in there. Factor was already on the
• 33:40
  Speaker 3: on the team for two years when I came in,
• 33:42
  Speaker 3: so he was he felt like a veteran and he uh,
• 33:45
  Speaker 3: he was one of those guys that you know, we're
• 33:47
  Speaker 3: the same age. We were good buddies right off the hop.
• 33:49
  Speaker 3: We both love music and and a couple of pints.
• 33:51
  Speaker 3: So that was fast friends, easy cam. But yeah, Nate
• 33:56
  Speaker 3: was uh, you know, Nate was so good when he
• 33:58
  Speaker 3: got in, and you know, he and then we we
• 34:00
  Speaker 3: started to have a lot of fun, and I think, uh,
• 34:03
  Speaker 3: maybe a bit too much. He went away one summer
• 34:07
  Speaker 3: and came back and it was just dialed.
• 34:10
  Speaker 5: You know.
• 34:10
  Speaker 3: I think he put up ninety nine points the next year.
• 34:13
  Speaker 3: He just you know, just kind of flipped the switch
• 34:16
  Speaker 3: and something clicked where you know, he thought, I think,
• 34:18
  Speaker 3: you know, I can be a really good player. I
• 34:20
  Speaker 3: can be a great player. And he made that decision
• 34:21
  Speaker 3: and he hasn't looked back. So it's been a pleasure
• 34:25
  Speaker 3: to kind of watch his growth.
• 34:27
  Speaker 2: I mean, is it true Ryan Factor? I call him
• 34:31
  Speaker 2: Ryan Factor, but Ryan O'Reilly cares his guitar with him
• 34:33
  Speaker 2: everywhere he goes on the road. And I was privy
• 34:36
  Speaker 2: to a few of his his concerts, and.
• 34:38
  Speaker 5: Well, you took a few of his concerts.
• 34:41
  Speaker 2: I did I did. Yes, Yes, we had a couple
• 34:44
  Speaker 2: of nice ones though with him, right. And you know,
• 34:46
  Speaker 2: how what were some of the bands you guys bonded
• 34:49
  Speaker 2: over and still bond over because I know, of just
• 34:51
  Speaker 2: looking through your instagram, you're pretty tight with a few
• 34:54
  Speaker 2: that you know, the Lumineers and City and Color And
• 34:57
  Speaker 2: how did those kind of come to be? And how
• 35:00
  Speaker 2: fun is that, you know, musician athlete relationship that when
• 35:04
  Speaker 2: it happens, it seems to be these like bonds for life.
• 35:07
  Speaker 5: Yeah.
• 35:08
  Speaker 3: Yeah, me and me in factor, I think we both
• 35:10
  Speaker 3: just loved all kind of alternative rock right off the
• 35:13
  Speaker 3: hop and it was always going in the mornings in
• 35:16
  Speaker 3: the room, and you know, my morning jacket was a big,
• 35:19
  Speaker 3: big one. And like you said, City and Color and
• 35:22
  Speaker 3: Band of Horses and we would cut coffee just we'ld
• 35:26
  Speaker 3: always try to catch bands when they come through town.
• 35:28
  Speaker 3: It's such a great way to kind of like disconnect
• 35:30
  Speaker 3: from the grind of a hockey season, go out and
• 35:31
  Speaker 3: have a few beers and and catch a live show.
• 35:34
  Speaker 3: Was kind of our favorite thing to do. So yeah,
• 35:37
  Speaker 3: that made it. That made it easy. And then as
• 35:39
  Speaker 3: far as you know, like relationships with artists and stuff,
• 35:42
  Speaker 3: it's Uh, it's it's really cool because there's a lot
• 35:45
  Speaker 3: of similarities kind of between what they're doing and what
• 35:48
  Speaker 3: we're doing. There's a lot of differences as well with
• 35:51
  Speaker 3: as far as how much structure we have and stuff.
• 35:53
  Speaker 3: But I think if you're going to be in a
• 35:55
  Speaker 3: good band and a successful band and one that has
• 35:57
  Speaker 3: a bit of longevity, it's it's almost like being on
• 36:00
  Speaker 3: a team. So you need to kind of understand how
• 36:04
  Speaker 3: everyone operates and what makes them tick and and you
• 36:06
  Speaker 3: know what's gonna make your your show or your album
• 36:08
  Speaker 3: and the whole thing as good as it can be.
• 36:10
  Speaker 3: And there's a lot of bonding that goes on in
• 36:14
  Speaker 3: those conversations. And yeah, and then just I think also
• 36:17
  Speaker 3: a love of music and sports, and yeah, they're just
• 36:21
  Speaker 3: kind of normal people like we are so easy to
• 36:24
  Speaker 3: easy to have a few beers or a nice bottle
• 36:26
  Speaker 3: of wine.
• 36:26
  Speaker 1: With the girl by City in Color All Time, great
• 36:29
  Speaker 1: song by.
• 36:29
  Speaker 5: The way, fantastic tune. Yeah, Dallas, that's nice to have
• 36:34
  Speaker 5: you back.
• 36:35
  Speaker 1: Don't We're gonna edit this part out, so we're gonna
• 36:36
  Speaker 1: end up your saying that was gone, but I'm saying
• 36:38
  Speaker 1: the acoustic part and the fast part Dallas Green unbelievable song.
• 36:41
  Speaker 1: Well then they broke up, so the song is a
• 36:43
  Speaker 1: more of a heartbreak song regardless. Patrick wwat Tyson, I
• 36:46
  Speaker 1: want to ask about Patty Wah fiery emotional, Uh, Thomas
• 36:50
  Speaker 1: Sicky's got great story smith with the Islanders. What was
• 36:52
  Speaker 1: w like with you?
• 36:54
  Speaker 3: Uh?
• 36:55
  Speaker 5: Patty was. Patty was great.
• 36:56
  Speaker 3: I think his first year we won the division. Things were,
• 37:01
  Speaker 3: things were awesome. I mean we we had a really
• 37:03
  Speaker 3: good team, a really good goaltender Varley I think got
• 37:07
  Speaker 3: snubbed for the Vesna that year, but he was I
• 37:09
  Speaker 3: mean he was first Star and maybe fifty of our
• 37:11
  Speaker 3: games he was out of control.
• 37:14
  Speaker 5: We were we had a good team, but we weren't
• 37:16
  Speaker 5: that good.
• 37:16
  Speaker 3: We had a really good goalie and we could score,
• 37:18
  Speaker 3: and Nate was good and we had a really good
• 37:20
  Speaker 3: uh you know, chemistry.
• 37:22
  Speaker 5: The team really really bonded. Patty was. Patty was super passionate. Obviously.
• 37:28
  Speaker 3: I found him to be a really good motivator. He'd
• 37:31
  Speaker 3: get you fired up before games. And that first year
• 37:33
  Speaker 3: it was fun. You know, we were winning, we were
• 37:35
  Speaker 3: we were kind of rolling along. We'd he'd go down
• 37:37
  Speaker 3: to the lobby on kind of a green light night,
• 37:39
  Speaker 3: and he'd already be there with his duffel bag heading out,
• 37:41
  Speaker 3: so he kind of understood the program and let us
• 37:44
  Speaker 3: run a little bit, which was great. And then I think,
• 37:48
  Speaker 3: obviously we I think we lost to Minnesota that year
• 37:52
  Speaker 3: in the playoffs. I got a ruthless knee from Matt Cook.
• 37:55
  Speaker 3: He took a seven game beyond me. I was playing
• 37:59
  Speaker 3: good hockey, as you always are. Yeah, never played a
• 38:02
  Speaker 3: bad game ever. And then the next year, I think
• 38:05
  Speaker 3: we came in and the expectations were really high, you know,
• 38:08
  Speaker 3: which was a lot different than the year before. And yeah,
• 38:11
  Speaker 3: he started he started bagging us pretty good, and it was.
• 38:15
  Speaker 5: Let's say, it wasn't quite as smooth sailing.
• 38:17
  Speaker 3: As it was the year before. The the the practices,
• 38:22
  Speaker 3: you know, I don't think that first year, we you know,
• 38:24
  Speaker 3: the second half of the year, we were barely on
• 38:26
  Speaker 3: the ice. It was just play day off, play a
• 38:29
  Speaker 3: day off, and then it kind of became a play
• 38:32
  Speaker 3: lose a game, get on the line. Yeah. I got
• 38:36
  Speaker 3: a little weird there the years two and three, and
• 38:38
  Speaker 3: then I think he saw the writing on the wall.
• 38:40
  Speaker 3: We weren't very good, so he kind of he pulled
• 38:42
  Speaker 3: the pin on himself and.
• 38:46
  Speaker 5: Then the worst team of all time we put together.
• 38:48
  Speaker 3: So I really liked Patty, though I think we uh,
• 38:52
  Speaker 3: I'm not surely loved my game all the time.
• 38:56
  Speaker 5: Needless to say, I don't. I didn't love his coaching
• 38:58
  Speaker 5: all the time.
• 38:59
  Speaker 3: So as a as a guy, he was great to
• 39:04
  Speaker 3: around with and a really good motivator, and I appreciated
• 39:07
  Speaker 3: my time I spent with Patty.
• 39:08
  Speaker 2: Listen, speaking of coaches that are great motivators, I mean,
• 39:12
  Speaker 2: you had a little touch with Mike Babcock in twenty nineteen,
• 39:16
  Speaker 2: you go to Toronto, I mean, and then also that year,
• 39:18
  Speaker 2: you know, it's the COVID season, So talk a little
• 39:21
  Speaker 2: bit about that change going from Colorado, which you know,
• 39:24
  Speaker 2: I consider Colorado that like medium sized market just because
• 39:28
  Speaker 2: of the success they've had now. But you know, Toronto
• 39:31
  Speaker 2: is just a different world. And how was that? You know,
• 39:34
  Speaker 2: obviously just sitting in with Mike Babpok and that Toronto
• 39:37
  Speaker 2: team that you know, it was a little bit of
• 39:39
  Speaker 2: a helter skelter year there.
• 39:41
  Speaker 5: Yeah, for all was a weird one.
• 39:43
  Speaker 3: I mean, that was my first first trade, which is
• 39:45
  Speaker 3: always tough to kind of you know, you play somewhere.
• 39:48
  Speaker 3: I was almost five hundred games in Colorado, and then
• 39:51
  Speaker 3: you know, you get dealt and it's all flipped on
• 39:53
  Speaker 3: its head. So I come in and I wouldn't say
• 39:57
  Speaker 3: it was a soft landing for sure. I kind of,
• 40:00
  Speaker 3: you know, I had a meeting with Babs and he
• 40:01
  Speaker 3: kind of told me Morgan Riley was here and I
• 40:04
  Speaker 3: here and he and he wasn't sure what he was
• 40:06
  Speaker 3: going to do with me. And that was my one
• 40:08
  Speaker 3: of my first meetings with.
• 40:09
  Speaker 2: Them, and I was the best conversations ever.
• 40:11
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I called my dad after I said, hey, I'm
• 40:13
  Speaker 3: in one. My god, Well, sure enough, it didn't that's
• 40:20
  Speaker 3: I'm not going to sit here and bag on Babs.
• 40:22
  Speaker 3: I think that's happened a lot over the last little while.
• 40:26
  Speaker 5: But yeah, it was.
• 40:28
  Speaker 3: It was a tough transition. But I mean, I love
• 40:30
  Speaker 3: the guys in Toronto. What a great organization. They treat
• 40:33
  Speaker 3: you like gold. I made some you know, friends for
• 40:35
  Speaker 3: life there, and the coaching change happened. I started to
• 40:38
  Speaker 3: play a little better hockey and and got some got
• 40:41
  Speaker 3: some looks, and then COVID hit and shut us down
• 40:43
  Speaker 3: and then we went into that weird bubble and the
• 40:46
  Speaker 3: Toronto year was eventful, really really eventful. Year, but you
• 40:52
  Speaker 3: know it was it was fun to be a leaf.
• 40:54
  Speaker 3: And I think a lot of people still you know
• 40:57
  Speaker 3: know who I am because I was a leaf for
• 40:59
  Speaker 3: one weird year, So it's it's cool.
• 41:01
  Speaker 1: Yeah, sometimes it happens that way, Tyson. This is kind
• 41:04
  Speaker 1: of a random question, but I remember, you know, when
• 41:06
  Speaker 1: your dad partnered with Orring Coolish course land Burier dad
• 41:08
  Speaker 1: to buy the Lightning the year before you were drafted.
• 41:11
  Speaker 1: And I remember if the whole Barry Melros experience haven't
• 41:13
  Speaker 1: worked at es Pandean Barry Melris a bit like it's
• 41:15
  Speaker 1: very rare and only coaches get fired, players get traded,
• 41:18
  Speaker 1: and you just took the high road. Things happen to
• 41:19
  Speaker 1: move on. But like Melars was so blunt, it's just like,
• 41:22
  Speaker 1: I don't care. I'll never coach again. I'll work with
• 41:24
  Speaker 1: those guys. That was obviously something that stuck out. But
• 41:27
  Speaker 1: what do you remember from that experience, any advice that
• 41:29
  Speaker 1: your dad gave you?
• 41:32
  Speaker 3: Loaded He's always given me lots of advice, Very very
• 41:36
  Speaker 3: grateful for my dad's hand he's had in my career.
• 41:39
  Speaker 3: He's been super supportive, gave me every opportunity and coached
• 41:42
  Speaker 3: me all through minor hockey and then you know, kind
• 41:44
  Speaker 3: of guided me through junior and obviously him buying a
• 41:47
  Speaker 3: team while I was in junior was an interesting, interesting
• 41:52
  Speaker 3: path that was kind of made waves. But yeah, I
• 41:56
  Speaker 3: remember he was he owned the team when you know,
• 42:00
  Speaker 3: I was drafted and he called me from the draft
• 42:02
  Speaker 3: for and said, hey, I just like, I know you
• 42:05
  Speaker 3: told me not to pick you, but like, I'm here
• 42:07
  Speaker 3: with all of our scouts. You're the next guy on
• 42:09
  Speaker 3: our list, Like, let us take you. That's pretty cool
• 42:13
  Speaker 3: that yeah, yeah, it was like late second round. He's like, hey,
• 42:16
  Speaker 3: Tyst like, I'm not it has nothing to do with me.
• 42:18
  Speaker 3: You're the next guy on our scouts list, like, and
• 42:21
  Speaker 3: I said that, I'm like, please, please do not take me.
• 42:24
  Speaker 3: I'm like, I am, I worked really hard and I
• 42:27
  Speaker 3: think I'm close, Like please just like let me do
• 42:29
  Speaker 3: this on my own.
• 42:30
  Speaker 5: And so they didn't take me.
• 42:32
  Speaker 3: And then I went, you know, maybe eight picks later
• 42:35
  Speaker 3: or something to the abs. But yeah, that was a
• 42:38
  Speaker 3: that was an odd time for sure. There was a
• 42:42
  Speaker 3: lot of moving parts in that one.
• 42:45
  Speaker 2: How was it being in the room with Peter Warrel?
• 42:48
  Speaker 2: Was it? Oh? Yeah, something that was.
• 42:51
  Speaker 5: Was all time.
• 42:52
  Speaker 3: When I was a young young guy in Florida. I
• 42:55
  Speaker 3: pretty much lived at the rink with my dad and
• 42:58
  Speaker 3: he was awesome to me. He'd picked me up and
• 43:00
  Speaker 3: throw me in the laundry machine and he was just great,
• 43:02
  Speaker 3: a lot of fun to be around.
• 43:06
  Speaker 1: It's interesting when you look back at your career and like,
• 43:08
  Speaker 1: you know, certain memories of players you played with. We
• 43:10
  Speaker 1: focused a lot of the guys that you were with
• 43:12
  Speaker 1: and stories like that. But Tyson, for you, like, what's
• 43:14
  Speaker 1: a memory that will always stick out? Something unforgettable. It
• 43:17
  Speaker 1: doesn't have to be a goal or assist. Perhaps it
• 43:18
  Speaker 1: is like, what's a moment that you you know what,
• 43:20
  Speaker 1: that's something I can always take pride and that I
• 43:22
  Speaker 1: can sleep well.
• 43:23
  Speaker 5: At night, you know what I think.
• 43:25
  Speaker 3: It's honestly, it's it's just as simple as my I
• 43:27
  Speaker 3: remember my first NHL game and then how nervous I
• 43:30
  Speaker 3: was played the Blackhawks when they were on an absolute heater,
• 43:33
  Speaker 3: they had all the big dogs there. I was so nervous.
• 43:36
  Speaker 3: I didn't calm down the entire game. But after the
• 43:39
  Speaker 3: game I went to dinner, a late dinner with my
• 43:43
  Speaker 3: parents in Denver, and it was just kind of like
• 43:46
  Speaker 3: I'll always remember that feeling, you know, like I made
• 43:49
  Speaker 3: it and it was really cool. My parents were really proud,
• 43:51
  Speaker 3: and it was just, you know, there was the very
• 43:54
  Speaker 3: beginning of the journey and something that will stick with
• 43:57
  Speaker 3: me and just kind of that, you know, you know,
• 44:01
  Speaker 3: I did it, and there was one game or whatever.
• 44:03
  Speaker 3: I didn't know what was in stores still, but it was.
• 44:05
  Speaker 3: It was just that first time playing in the NHL
• 44:08
  Speaker 3: was very substantial.
• 44:11
  Speaker 2: Did it. You know, I'd say a lot of the
• 44:15
  Speaker 2: memories were shared. I was kind of looking through your stories.
• 44:18
  Speaker 2: You and Leon were kind of dry citle, we're messing around.
• 44:21
  Speaker 2: I think Leon probably did one of the best congratulating
• 44:26
  Speaker 2: guys retiring I've ever seen with you, I mean talk
• 44:29
  Speaker 2: about Leon playing with him. I mean, you once said
• 44:31
  Speaker 2: one of the funniest things I've heard in the league
• 44:33
  Speaker 2: is you were like, and I think Leon was there
• 44:35
  Speaker 2: when I had this small tryout in Edmonton. You were like,
• 44:40
  Speaker 2: Leon's probably one of the best players in the world
• 44:42
  Speaker 2: when he's on, and you're probably one of the worst
• 44:43
  Speaker 2: players when you're off. And just your relationship with him
• 44:48
  Speaker 2: and how you kind of pushed each other.
• 44:51
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean, I love Leon. He's got an incredible
• 44:54
  Speaker 3: sense of humor. Obviously, we don't need to talk about
• 44:57
  Speaker 3: how good of a player is it was, It's pretty evident.
• 45:01
  Speaker 3: But yeah, he can, I mean he is, he can
• 45:04
  Speaker 3: is he can be the best player in the world
• 45:06
  Speaker 3: one night and then he can just lay one of
• 45:08
  Speaker 3: the biggest eggs you've ever seen.
• 45:09
  Speaker 5: And and well, the thing.
• 45:10
  Speaker 3: I love about it most is he'll when he's not
• 45:13
  Speaker 3: feeling it because some of the plays he makes that
• 45:16
  Speaker 3: make him the best or you know, they're the backhand,
• 45:18
  Speaker 3: no looks through the slot, they're the they're high risk
• 45:20
  Speaker 3: and they I mean credit to him. More than often
• 45:23
  Speaker 3: they work out. But when he is not feeling it,
• 45:25
  Speaker 3: he is not not trying those plays. He's going to
• 45:28
  Speaker 3: continue to throw backhands up the middle that are gonna
• 45:30
  Speaker 3: get back to.
• 45:32
  Speaker 2: Yeah, imagine we're not feeling it tonight, up the middle
• 45:35
  Speaker 2: every time.
• 45:36
  Speaker 3: Up the gut, up the gut, turnover, turnover. No, it's
• 45:41
  Speaker 3: it's fun to be able to joke with him, and
• 45:42
  Speaker 3: then you know his I love his approach. When he
• 45:44
  Speaker 3: does lay an egg like that, he you know, gets
• 45:46
  Speaker 3: on the plane or whatever and opens a beer and
• 45:49
  Speaker 3: just has a laugh, moves on and next night he
• 45:51
  Speaker 3: goes out and him and Connor have six points combined
• 45:53
  Speaker 3: or something stupid.
• 45:54
  Speaker 5: So, yeah, Leon's a really good pal of mine.
• 45:57
  Speaker 3: He's a he's a great a great player and a
• 45:59
  Speaker 3: guy with a great sense of humor.
• 46:01
  Speaker 5: So it's nice to uh, nice to be able to
• 46:03
  Speaker 5: poke at each other a bit.
• 46:04
  Speaker 1: Speaking of having a beer, what can tell us about
• 46:06
  Speaker 1: chili ones? Oh, I can tell you.
• 46:08
  Speaker 5: Yeah, let me ruthlessly plug it.
• 46:10
  Speaker 3: No, it's just chili ones is an idea that came
• 46:15
  Speaker 3: from just that's what we called beers when I was
• 46:17
  Speaker 3: in Colorado. It's what we call beers in Edmonton. Kind
• 46:19
  Speaker 3: of took on a life of its own, and Edmonton
• 46:21
  Speaker 3: guys were just screaming chili ones at each other before
• 46:24
  Speaker 3: the game and just dumb stuff like that. So I
• 46:26
  Speaker 3: just put it in my notes, it'd be fun to
• 46:28
  Speaker 3: do a beer with my friends called chili ones and
• 46:31
  Speaker 3: drink our own beer. And we kind of did it.
• 46:34
  Speaker 3: So I think there's about eighteen active and former NHL
• 46:38
  Speaker 3: guys in on it, and it's a lot of fun.
• 46:41
  Speaker 3: I'm really enjoying the beverage industry. Every meeting starts with
• 46:45
  Speaker 3: the beer, ends with a beer. Everyone's generally happy, so
• 46:48
  Speaker 3: it's right up my alley.
• 46:50
  Speaker 2: Yeah, how you have eighteen guys on board? How long
• 46:52
  Speaker 2: have you How long have you been? How long did
• 46:55
  Speaker 2: you start it? Ago? Yeah, guys, how long ago did
• 46:57
  Speaker 2: you start it? And where are you at with it?
• 46:59
  Speaker 1: Yeah?
• 46:59
  Speaker 5: Hanging there.
• 47:00
  Speaker 3: I go there about two years ago, kind of like concept.
• 47:06
  Speaker 3: It was pretty quick to get it into a can
• 47:07
  Speaker 3: and get the I had a pretty good idea of
• 47:10
  Speaker 3: what I wanted it to look like. And we've been innovating,
• 47:14
  Speaker 3: you know, the last six months or so, doing some
• 47:16
  Speaker 3: different things, just kind of finding our feet in the
• 47:19
  Speaker 3: beverage industry. But yeah, it's it's been about two years
• 47:23
  Speaker 3: and we're about to launch kind of a bigger launch
• 47:27
  Speaker 3: in Alberta, BC, Manitoba, Saskatchewan, and we're running some pretty cool.
• 47:34
  Speaker 5: Campaigns with some cool people that I won't announce yet.
• 47:37
  Speaker 3: But yeah, we're doing a lot of stuff on the
• 47:39
  Speaker 3: non out side too, which is great.
• 47:40
  Speaker 2: It's me, so just you guys know, it's me. What's uh,
• 47:43
  Speaker 2: what's been the most challenging thing about this You've seen
• 47:46
  Speaker 2: that's like kind of just you were like, oh shit,
• 47:48
  Speaker 2: I didn't even know this.
• 47:49
  Speaker 3: Would Oh there's a there's like a oh shit moment
• 47:52
  Speaker 3: every day on the business side, I am. I got
• 47:55
  Speaker 3: my grade twelve and it was sort of handed to
• 47:57
  Speaker 3: me because I was a good hockey player, So I
• 47:59
  Speaker 3: am not. I don't have a college degree or anything
• 48:03
  Speaker 3: like that. So I'm learning the business side of things.
• 48:06
  Speaker 3: But the surprising thing I think is just you know, people,
• 48:09
  Speaker 3: you have to have the right people. It's not it's
• 48:10
  Speaker 3: not any different than I think building a winning team.
• 48:12
  Speaker 3: You've got to have the right people in place. And
• 48:16
  Speaker 3: you know, we've gone through some changes of people, which
• 48:19
  Speaker 3: has been interesting for me, So I think the business
• 48:23
  Speaker 3: world is a little more cutthroat than i'd realize. So yeah,
• 48:26
  Speaker 3: it's yeah, yeah, just learning, you know, not to trust everybody.
• 48:31
  Speaker 2: Yeah. I mean I've been building a business for two
• 48:33
  Speaker 2: years as well, and it's exactly all those things. We
• 48:36
  Speaker 2: weren't mood lighting as ves. Oh and I gotta deal
• 48:41
  Speaker 2: with av every day, so building that shit is is difficult,
• 48:44
  Speaker 2: dealing with people, but you can't just rely on you know,
• 48:47
  Speaker 2: making a breakout pass and having a good game. It's
• 48:49
  Speaker 2: it's a lot more. It's not as black and white
• 48:51
  Speaker 2: as hockey, I find. But speaking of other skills, I mean,
• 48:55
  Speaker 2: you weren't mood lighting as a CEO, but you also
• 48:58
  Speaker 2: weren't moodlighting as a skateboard efficient on. Yeah, so tell
• 49:02
  Speaker 2: me about that. You picked that back up A couple kickflips,
• 49:05
  Speaker 2: a couple, allis what's going on there? I thought you'd
• 49:08
  Speaker 2: just be a finger skateboard guy, but it Yeah.
• 49:10
  Speaker 3: Yeah, no, I was a big tech decker back in
• 49:12
  Speaker 3: the day, but no deck. I grew up skateboarding.
• 49:16
  Speaker 5: I loved it.
• 49:16
  Speaker 3: I grew up skateboarding, snowboarding, you know, wakeboarding, all that
• 49:20
  Speaker 3: kind of stuff. Was that was honestly my favorite thing
• 49:22
  Speaker 3: to do. And hockey got serious, so I did kind
• 49:25
  Speaker 3: of tuck it away. And over the years, I've always
• 49:29
  Speaker 3: wanted to skateboard, and I just never have. I've never
• 49:32
  Speaker 3: allowed myself to own a skateboard because I know that
• 49:34
  Speaker 3: I would probably break my ankle or do something stupid.
• 49:37
  Speaker 3: So upon retirement, I immediately grabbed a skateboard because I
• 49:42
  Speaker 3: miss it and I love it, and yeah, it's fun
• 49:45
  Speaker 3: to mess around a little bit without like the the
• 49:48
  Speaker 3: overarching theme of if you hurt yourself, you're probably in one.
• 49:52
  Speaker 3: So yeah, I'm just kind of going to do some
• 49:55
  Speaker 3: things that are a little more high risk that I
• 49:57
  Speaker 3: haven't been able to do.
• 49:57
  Speaker 5: The last fourteen years.
• 50:00
  Speaker 1: We just found your next sports venture, skateboarding.
• 50:02
  Speaker 3: This is the next frontier, right, Yeah, I'm not exactly
• 50:05
  Speaker 3: like I don't have the build for the five ten
• 50:07
  Speaker 3: two ten isn't exactly the ideal skateboarder build.
• 50:10
  Speaker 5: So I'm just gonna, i think, have some fun with it.
• 50:12
  Speaker 5: I'm gonna get up in the mountains do some snowboarding.
• 50:14
  Speaker 3: But yeah, I'm I'm probably a little heavy to take
• 50:18
  Speaker 3: skateboarding anywhere and a little old. But I did get
• 50:21
  Speaker 3: in the gym the last two days, so I'm tightening.
• 50:24
  Speaker 1: Yeah, it's still looking great. Tyson Barrier, this was a
• 50:26
  Speaker 1: ton of fun, man, Seriously, congrats and a wonderful NHL career.
• 50:29

• 50:35

• 50:39
  Speaker 1: of it. Again, congratula in your family having two little ones.

• 52:06
  Speaker 1: Punch Drunk Love, which is kind of my way saying
• 52:08
  Speaker 1: I'm not a big fan of yours because everyone else
• 52:09
  Speaker 1: mentions the water boy Billy Madison, and I'm like, yeah,
• 52:11
  Speaker 1: I don't like that stuff. I like this stuff when
• 52:13
  Speaker 1: you're different, like you actually acted with Paul Thomas Anderson.
• 52:15
  Speaker 1: So I love Punchrick Love and on cut Jimps is
• 52:17

• 52:27
  Speaker 1: I know, I'm going, I said. Sandler goes upstairs and
• 52:30
  Speaker 1: he comes downstairs. He's watching the NBA game. He goes, say,
• 52:32
  Speaker 1: I put ESPN back on. I go, it's a Western
• 52:35
  Speaker 1: Conference game. That's TNT. It's Kevin Harlan's voice. He literally
• 52:38
  Speaker 1: pulls the phone out and like, here's the time going
• 52:40
  Speaker 1: to watching the thousand and Ben's gonna be like, why
• 52:43

• 52:45
  Speaker 1: I'm Tonney right now. There's no like Eastern Conferences like
• 52:48

• 52:50
  Speaker 1: going around SAFTI sees his like, ah fuck fuck, it's
• 52:56
  Speaker 1: like this guy just said the premiere. But Jemps, you ruined.
• 52:58
  Speaker 1: I didn't ruin this night. He can fix it. He goes,
• 53:00
  Speaker 1: I don't think he can.
• 53:01
  Speaker 2: He was.
• 53:01
  Speaker 1: This is not one of those fixing postings. They go,
• 53:03
  Speaker 1: they can fix that. They didn't fix it, and somebody
• 53:05
  Speaker 1: did pick it up. So where they did give me credit,
• 53:07
  Speaker 1: They go, Adnamberg was the person that noticed blah blah
• 53:09
  Speaker 1: blah blah. Anyways, happy come more to I didn't see
• 53:11
  Speaker 1: But one guy was great though Chills with Will podcasts.
• 53:14
  Speaker 1: I gotta thank him, dude. He read the entire book.
• 53:16
  Speaker 1: The interview was awesome. He was like, hey, page two
• 53:18
  Speaker 1: twenty one, Deckloge, I go, now, this is what I'm
• 53:20
  Speaker 1: talking about. When I had an aufor on, I made
• 53:22
  Speaker 1: sure I read the book. When somebody actually does the
• 53:24
  Speaker 1: prep work, it's so nice. So I want to just
• 53:26
  Speaker 1: say thank you to Frank Thanking all the people out
• 53:28
  Speaker 1: there who had bought the book and enjoyed it, and
• 53:30
  Speaker 1: a few people I have strong armed at work. They've
• 53:32
  Speaker 1: done it. I appreciate them taking it along the way
• 53:34
  Speaker 1: as tal Will as well as first in the f
• 53:36
  Speaker 1: on sixty f one watchually with my wife my sister
• 53:41
  Speaker 1: in law again, as I said to him, like they're
• 53:42
  Speaker 1: just gonna watch it for Brad Pitt being shirtless, which
• 53:44
  Speaker 1: is okay. I can get over that. My wife fell
• 53:47
  Speaker 1: a seeve after about thirty minutes, just a lot punted
• 53:49
  Speaker 1: about halfway through we started that maybe, I mean we
• 53:52
  Speaker 1: were in San Jose, so it's probably I don't know,
• 53:54
  Speaker 1: ten thirty, but we were on West Coast time at
• 53:56
  Speaker 1: that point, and as my sister law was leaving on
• 53:58
  Speaker 1: what do you think so far? She's like, Eh, I go, yeah,
• 54:00
  Speaker 1: I really don't like these movies. I said, you know,
• 54:02
  Speaker 1: there's just so formulaic. I said, it's fine. I go,
• 54:05
  Speaker 1: I'm enjoying the experience. I'm going to watch it kind
• 54:07
  Speaker 1: of like as JD SAIDs a good popcorn movie, but
• 54:09
  Speaker 1: I can't call it a good movie. Like to me,
• 54:10
  Speaker 1: I'm like, I've seen this movie so many times. Veteran guy,
• 54:13
  Speaker 1: young guy, he's cocky, love interest, different accents, different people,
• 54:16
  Speaker 1: different nationalities, And the main thing I have when I'm
• 54:19
  Speaker 1: watching it, you know, rad pits such a talented actor,
• 54:22
  Speaker 1: and how have you ever been such a talented actor.
• 54:24
  Speaker 1: They're just just clearly taking a paycheck like it's fine.
• 54:27
  Speaker 1: I guess if that's life these days, nobody gives a
• 54:28
  Speaker 1: shit about movies. You're gonna give you ten million dollars
• 54:30
  Speaker 1: in Go. But I'm like, even the driving scenes you did,
• 54:32
  Speaker 1: because I would have said, oh, you know, the driving
• 54:34
  Speaker 1: scenes will be awesome, and they're well shot, well done,
• 54:36
  Speaker 1: but they're so choreographed in that it's like POV shot,
• 54:40
  Speaker 1: watch POV shot well, Like I could already cut it
• 54:43
  Speaker 1: the way I know they're gonna cut it like, it's
• 54:44
  Speaker 1: just so that I did not get to run watching
• 54:47
  Speaker 1: Driven as you had suggested to see what a copy.
• 54:49
  Speaker 1: But please please tell me what is the scene in
• 54:51
  Speaker 1: F one that's completely ripping off Driven, because then I'll
• 54:53
  Speaker 1: go look it up.
• 54:55
  Speaker 2: Well, it's it's the last scene and when they ask
• 55:00
  Speaker 2: him like, hey, like when everything's kind of working for you,
• 55:03
  Speaker 2: Yeah what and he goes, there's like a silence in it,
• 55:07
  Speaker 2: and then oh yeah yeah, and then Driven and then
• 55:10
  Speaker 2: Driven it's he goes when he starts humming. It's when
• 55:13
  Speaker 2: he's in the flow state. And at the end of
• 55:16
  Speaker 2: the movie when he goes to like win or you know,
• 55:21
  Speaker 2: finished second third, whatever you want to do it, it's
• 55:23
  Speaker 2: that same setup where he starts humming and like, oh
• 55:28
  Speaker 2: my god, he's back. And then with Brad Pitt, it's
• 55:32
  Speaker 2: like the same thing he has. It's seen where like
• 55:34
  Speaker 2: all of a sudden he locks in that's a perfect lap.
• 55:37
  Speaker 2: Yeah yeah, he's flying. Is that like perfect lap? And
• 55:40
  Speaker 2: that's just where it was. I mean, the whole thing
• 55:43
  Speaker 2: is very deriven derived from that. Well yeah, derive derived
• 55:49
  Speaker 2: from that last one. And I just kind of was like,
• 55:52
  Speaker 2: it's fun, it's exciting. I love Hans Zimmer the score
• 55:56
  Speaker 2: was good. I'm glad you Hans Zimmer is is my guys.
• 56:00
  Speaker 1: Looks beautiful like you can.
• 56:01
  Speaker 2: It's a popcorn movie, like I said, was I wrong?
• 56:04
  Speaker 1: No, but I'm glad you boot of the theaters to
• 56:06
  Speaker 1: see it, like tal her bullshit, like got I get
• 56:07
  Speaker 1: out there. I'm like, hey, I'm glad of I just
• 56:09
  Speaker 1: I've got my sister WI up eight twenty bucks. We've
• 56:10
  Speaker 1: watched Rentic because I go I wouldn't have been happy
• 56:12
  Speaker 1: watching the theaters.
• 56:13
  Speaker 2: I started. I started watching Eddington.
• 56:16
  Speaker 1: What do you think?
• 56:17
  Speaker 2: Oh? I love the way it shot. I love it.
• 56:20
  Speaker 1: We're in let's go good antidote to the summer blockbusters,
• 56:24
  Speaker 1: A good covid believe to pissed people. Offer the liberal
• 56:29
  Speaker 1: jokes you're gonna love.
• 56:30
  Speaker 2: It's hilarious. The best part of it is the Black
• 56:32
  Speaker 2: Lives Matter sequence. I'm like, oh my god, oh my god,
• 56:35
  Speaker 2: what was it? The anti white or the you can't
• 56:39
  Speaker 2: say anti whiter. Anyway, when we looked at the reviews,
• 56:42
  Speaker 2: it was like two point eight and I kind of
• 56:45
  Speaker 2: look at my wife and I'm like, I guarantee you
• 56:47
  Speaker 2: it's it's like people that watched it that are like
• 56:52
  Speaker 2: pissed off at you know, the liberal the jokes at
• 56:57
  Speaker 2: the left side. But they make fun of both sides,
• 56:59
  Speaker 2: make fun of the right just as much as they
• 57:00
  Speaker 2: do the left.
• 57:01
  Speaker 1: That's why I love South Park, Bigger, Longer, Uncut movie.
• 57:04
  Speaker 1: They took as many shots as the left at the right,
• 57:06
  Speaker 1: but like they're like, that's that's Shit's hilarious. Look, we're
• 57:10
  Speaker 1: just going after Altar.
• 57:11
  Speaker 2: If they're both, it's all. It's all the sickness both sides.
• 57:14
  Speaker 1: As you said to me, once you go, they all
• 57:15
  Speaker 1: watch your money, and I go, that's.
• 57:19
  Speaker 3: That.
• 57:19
  Speaker 2: Yeah, that's it.
• 57:20
  Speaker 1: That's why George Carlin was the best, because I don't
• 57:22
  Speaker 1: like any group of more than three because because then
• 57:24
  Speaker 1: they get a hat, then they get a button. They
• 57:26
  Speaker 1: all want you to be on their siding. Is now
• 57:28
  Speaker 1: I'm not George carl in the classic iconic class tell.
• 57:31
  Speaker 1: I did see How I to Lowest. I thought it
• 57:32
  Speaker 1: was terrific. I really enjoyed it. I was so happy
• 57:34
  Speaker 1: to see a Spike Lee joint back in theaters again.
• 57:37
  Speaker 1: Was busy with the fam vacation, et cetera. But I said, no,
• 57:39
  Speaker 1: I'm not waiting to Apple. Plus, I want to support
• 57:41
  Speaker 1: movies in theaters, so the movie is gonna be out
• 57:43
  Speaker 1: this weekend on Apple Plus. I was able to get
• 57:45
  Speaker 1: out to the Regal and Seacaucus, eight minutes from where
• 57:48
  Speaker 1: me and JD worked to.
• 57:49
  Speaker 2: Watch the movie.
• 57:50
  Speaker 1: I thought I had spikes visual panache to it. I
• 57:52
  Speaker 1: thought Denzel was terrific. It was so good to see
• 57:54
  Speaker 1: the United I'm with you completely on New York as
• 57:56
  Speaker 1: a character. You know, Darren aaron Oski's in the new
• 57:58
  Speaker 1: movie out, Which'm going to try to see cott stealing.
• 58:00
  Speaker 1: I mentioned to the scimitar for Maddie Leebatique, who was
• 58:02
  Speaker 1: shot reckon for a Dream. He did Spike's latest, so
• 58:04
  Speaker 1: he can definitely sense Aaron offs He spiked both great
• 58:07
  Speaker 1: New York directors. The set piece, as I told you,
• 58:09
  Speaker 1: my favorite part was that whole Yankee Stadium trip, which
• 58:11
  Speaker 1: you had mentioned when Turro Yell's the camera Boston sucks
• 58:14
  Speaker 1: beautifully shot again like in the Krusawa version. That's like
• 58:17
  Speaker 1: a real centerpiece movie. So I'm glad the way that
• 58:19
  Speaker 1: Spike was able to re envision it. It's a little long.
• 58:22
  Speaker 1: I would have edited a little bit differently, but I
• 58:25
  Speaker 1: thought overall it was an enjoyable film, and it's nice
• 58:27
  Speaker 1: to see a great actor director team up again. Good
• 58:30
  Speaker 1: supporting cast. Jeffrey rd I always loved man. He's fantastic.
• 58:33
  Speaker 1: Denzel's wife. Wow, he's doing well for himself, both on
• 58:36
  Speaker 1: Cameron off and I thought overall it was definitely an
• 58:39
  Speaker 1: enjoyable movie. It didn't. One of my friends a little
• 58:41
  Speaker 1: bit harsh on it. He goes, I couldn't get over
• 58:43
  Speaker 1: to the fact teal. He goes, this guy supposed to
• 58:45
  Speaker 1: be like a Barry Gordy music impressario. I'm like, yeah,
• 58:48
  Speaker 1: just the plot real simple for everyone.
• 58:49
  Speaker 2: He goes.
• 58:50
  Speaker 1: He thinks his son gets kidnapped, but instead it's his
• 58:53
  Speaker 1: friend's son who's kidnapped, and he's faced with this moral dilemma.
• 58:56
  Speaker 1: Should he put up seventeen point five million dollars and
• 58:59
  Speaker 1: basically risk his own empire because he's trying to make
• 59:02
  Speaker 1: a takeover, he's not liquid at the time, etc. Close friend,
• 59:05
  Speaker 1: et cetera. But like, where's the world a little bit? Lie?
• 59:07
  Speaker 1: My buddy said to be Tally goes, this guy is
• 59:09
  Speaker 1: an F seventeen and a half million dollars, like around
• 59:11
  Speaker 1: if you're that rich, And I said, wow, I don't.
• 59:13
  Speaker 1: He's a music executive was once big. He's not as
• 59:15
  Speaker 1: big as he once was. Did you have any issue
• 59:17
  Speaker 1: with that?
• 59:17
  Speaker 4: Well, first off, spoiler alerts for anyone listening, obviously, But well,
• 59:22
  Speaker 4: I think part of part of that is because he's
• 59:25
  Speaker 4: and this is in the first minutes well forty five maybe,
• 59:28
  Speaker 4: but yeah, I see what you're saying. But I think
• 59:31
  Speaker 4: the reason he hesitates is because, remember, he has like
• 59:34
  Speaker 4: this big business deal that he's trying to close, right,
• 59:37
  Speaker 4: and he's kind of like leveraging all his assets in
• 59:41
  Speaker 4: this one big business deal, and then he has to
• 59:44
  Speaker 4: fork over a ransom for a kid that's not his kid.
• 59:48
  Speaker 4: And yeah, so I think they're that that that's why
• 59:51
  Speaker 4: there's that interesting dilemma that he faces there. Yeah, I
• 59:55
  Speaker 4: didn't mention Jeffrey right before when I talked about he's great.
• 59:58
  Speaker 3: I did.
• 59:58
  Speaker 4: I don't know if I've seen has he been with
• 1:00:00
  Speaker 4: Denzel and anything before? I thought they were so good together,
• 1:00:04
  Speaker 4: as like their buddies, right, their buddies from like back
• 1:00:06
  Speaker 4: in the day, who has to maintained their friendship for decades,
• 1:00:09
  Speaker 4: And they were excellent together.
• 1:00:11
  Speaker 2: I really like them totally.
• 1:00:12
  Speaker 1: I remember you saying that you thought that your buddy
• 1:00:14
  Speaker 1: who sought with thought that Spike made some interesting choices.
• 1:00:17
  Speaker 1: I wanted to guess which one of them is, because
• 1:00:19
  Speaker 1: I for this to be quote an interesting choice, which
• 1:00:21
  Speaker 1: is a negative way of saying crazy about it. A
• 1:00:23
  Speaker 1: lot of orchestral music, particularly in the first forty five minutes,
• 1:00:25
  Speaker 1: was that what he was talking about, because I was like, man,
• 1:00:27
  Speaker 1: you got to tone down the score a little bit.
• 1:00:29
  Speaker 4: His words were literally in the middle of the movie,
• 1:00:31
  Speaker 4: this score is killing me, he said. But Spike does
• 1:00:34
  Speaker 4: that a lot. You'll see he has a lot In
• 1:00:35
  Speaker 4: a lot of his films, he has these huge orchestral
• 1:00:39
  Speaker 4: numbers that suddenly come in. You're like, I don't know
• 1:00:42
  Speaker 4: if this is the right time for I mean, you know,
• 1:00:43
  Speaker 4: if you really want to get into the weeds and
• 1:00:45
  Speaker 4: you want to put your movie nerd hat on. I
• 1:00:48
  Speaker 4: sometimes you hear it like, I don't know if this
• 1:00:50
  Speaker 4: is the right time for a big, sweeping orchestral number.
• 1:00:53
  Speaker 4: It just doesn't quite fit. But Spike does that a lot.
• 1:00:56
  Speaker 4: He's clearly a big fan. And I thought it was
• 1:00:58
  Speaker 4: the same composer, but it turns out it's not. It's
• 1:01:02
  Speaker 4: this composer on highest to lowest. I think it's his
• 1:01:05
  Speaker 4: first time working with Spike, so yeah, I.
• 1:01:07
  Speaker 1: Will say again spoiler alert asap. Rocky is really good
• 1:01:11
  Speaker 1: in the film. I thought that scene Tala is probably
• 1:01:13
  Speaker 1: my favorite scene when they go a little monoy monol
• 1:01:16
  Speaker 1: there in the recording studio.
• 1:01:17
  Speaker 2: It's fantastic.
• 1:01:18
  Speaker 1: By the way, you mentioned Jeff Right Denzel worked together
• 1:01:20
  Speaker 1: in The Manchurian Candidate in two thousand and four, but
• 1:01:23
  Speaker 1: this is the first time they worked together, and Spike
• 1:01:25
  Speaker 1: and Denzel first time since Inside Man back in two
• 1:01:28
  Speaker 1: thousand and six. I would say he got game is
• 1:01:30
  Speaker 1: definitely better. But this was definitely an enjoyable film and
• 1:01:32
  Speaker 1: I definitely.
• 1:01:33
  Speaker 2: Think people will check it out on the Shuttles.
• 1:01:36
  Speaker 1: Jesus Solver awesome. Denzel really going out him in that
• 1:01:38
  Speaker 1: basketball game. At the end, he said he worked for
• 1:01:41
  Speaker 1: like months, like he was like, I'm not gonna let
• 1:01:44
  Speaker 1: Ray Allen towards you, and he kept telling Yal, I'm
• 1:01:46
  Speaker 1: not very good going to my left, and first thing
• 1:01:48
  Speaker 1: he went to his left up the basket and then
• 1:01:49
  Speaker 1: he had another hoop and round was like, okay, it's
• 1:01:51
  Speaker 1: fucking on it because Denzel was not supposed to get
• 1:01:53
  Speaker 1: any baskets. And then Roy Allen took him for the
• 1:01:55
  Speaker 1: Winds set at Denzel. I'm getting a couple of baskets
• 1:01:57
  Speaker 1: of this kid, Graham Green, real quick, great Cadan actors,
• 1:02:00
  Speaker 1: seventy three years of age. You know, one of the
• 1:02:02
  Speaker 1: great indigenous actors, the guy really putative American and Native

  Speaker 1: Canadian actors on the map, was brilliant and dances with wolves,
• 1:02:08
  Speaker 1: reservation dogs, etc. Just wanted to give a quick shut
• 1:02:10
  Speaker 1: to him. Great, terrific Meadian actor passed me a season.
• 1:02:13
  Speaker 1: Some posts there, but some of us were particularly obviously,
• 1:02:15
  Speaker 1: like I said, dances with wolves great, great chemistry with
• 1:02:17
  Speaker 1: Kevin Coster. All right, you know my doppelganger Chris Jellios
• 1:02:21

• 1:02:26

• 1:02:28

  Speaker 2: I kind of wrote this. Came up with this idea
• 1:03:20
  Speaker 2: kind of when I a little bit after I retired,

• 1:03:26

  Speaker 2: a big part of it, but also just more specifically
• 1:03:33
  Speaker 2: around pregame meal. I think pregame meal is something every
• 1:03:36
  Speaker 2: athlete eats. I know, it's something every athlete eats, and
• 1:03:39
  Speaker 2: it's such a big part of the fuel that kind
• 1:03:43
  Speaker 2: of drives the ship, so to speak, in your game
• 1:03:47
  Speaker 2: and how good of a game or bad of a
• 1:03:49
  Speaker 2: game can hinge on what you're eating, whether you're fatigued,
• 1:03:52
  Speaker 2: brain fog. It's all tied to food. And my friend
• 1:03:55
  Speaker 2: Chris Sage, who is just an amazing chef in La
• 1:03:58
  Speaker 2: we met during COVID. Just after COVID, he came and
• 1:04:03
  Speaker 2: did like a big home He does these like Michelin
• 1:04:08
  Speaker 2: star meals at your house. So I had a bunch
• 1:04:10
  Speaker 2: of the guys on the team come. He flew in
• 1:04:12
  Speaker 2: cooks in your kitchen. We stayed connected. I said, hey,
• 1:04:15
  Speaker 2: I want you to be a part of this. I
• 1:04:16
  Speaker 2: want to take guys pregame meals and elevate them. And
• 1:04:20
  Speaker 2: then as we're elevating them and you're making this amazing
• 1:04:23
  Speaker 2: pregame meal that's like worthy of a Michelin Star, you know,
• 1:04:28
  Speaker 2: Dish one star, two stars, two stars, whatever you come
• 1:04:30
  Speaker 2: up with. And we're just going to talk to the
• 1:04:32
  Speaker 2: athletes about kind of food in their life and food
• 1:04:36
  Speaker 2: and sport and how it's evolved, how their pregame meals evolved.
• 1:04:39
  Speaker 2: So we had Chris Chillio's came on and it was
• 1:04:42
  Speaker 2: really cool. It's just you know, like I'm really into
• 1:04:45
  Speaker 2: getting layers to athletes and because I always consider myself,
• 1:04:49
  Speaker 2: it wasn't what defined me. It's it's what I did.
• 1:04:52
  Speaker 2: And I think anytime I can talk to guys about
• 1:04:55
  Speaker 2: their other interest it really gets me excited because it's
• 1:04:58
  Speaker 2: just like I just think it's something that fans don't know,
• 1:05:01
  Speaker 2: and they know it's for this specific thing that we do,
• 1:05:05
  Speaker 2: which is which is hockey baseball. But the thing that
• 1:05:09
  Speaker 2: people don't realize is once it's over, it's such a
• 1:05:12
  Speaker 2: tiny you know. I had somebody say the other day,
• 1:05:14
  Speaker 2: it's just a grain of sand in an hour glass,
• 1:05:16
  Speaker 2: and it's one grain of sand. Your professional sports career,
• 1:05:19
  Speaker 2: the rest of your life. Two thirds is what's important,
• 1:05:23
  Speaker 2: all of your other things, your interests, your family. So
• 1:05:25
  Speaker 2: we just kind of touch on that and touch on
• 1:05:27
  Speaker 2: guys is you know, how food relates to their life.
• 1:05:31
  Speaker 2: And it was really good. It was really fun. Something
• 1:05:34
  Speaker 2: we kind of put together, Me and my wife and
• 1:05:36
  Speaker 2: I kind of came up the idea and just kind
• 1:05:39
  Speaker 2: of was shopping it around and we got Chris Chillios
• 1:05:43
  Speaker 2: and now we're trying to kind of put a sALS
• 1:05:45
  Speaker 2: a real together and maybe create a series on either
• 1:05:49
  Speaker 2: YouTube or or sell it somewhere. So it's just we
• 1:05:53
  Speaker 2: also don't want to do just NHL. We're trying to
• 1:05:55
  Speaker 2: do all sports, you know.
• 1:05:57
  Speaker 1: I love it. Pilets in the cans seeking distribution. Hopefully
• 1:06:00
  Speaker 1: more coming soon.
• 1:06:01
  Speaker 2: Yeah, and I would.
• 1:06:01
  Speaker 1: I always think it's fascinating because, like with athletes just said,
• 1:06:05
  Speaker 1: you know, there's such well conditioned people and they're so
• 1:06:08
  Speaker 1: fixing in certain things and can be not hypochondriacs, but
• 1:06:11
  Speaker 1: certainly creatures of habits. So I'm with you, like and
• 1:06:13
  Speaker 1: the way that it's evolved that they could be fascinating.
• 1:06:15
  Speaker 1: I think if you talk to like former athletes, you
• 1:06:17
  Speaker 1: know what they ate back in the day and how
• 1:06:19
  Speaker 1: it's changed and what it's like. It's constantly evolving, and
• 1:06:21
  Speaker 1: as you said, it's more than just food. It's also
• 1:06:23
  Speaker 1: the other interests, et cetera. It's hope you love to
• 1:06:25
  Speaker 1: Ian Hap, one of our favorite guests because he's asked
• 1:06:27
  Speaker 1: as a podcast, loves coffee. Like as you said, everyone
• 1:06:29
  Speaker 1: has more interests and some guys are not as willing
• 1:06:31
  Speaker 1: to divulge like everyone. I interviewed Connor McDavid, like he
• 1:06:34
  Speaker 1: clearly is more than Connor McDavid, but like he just
• 1:06:38
  Speaker 1: wants to talk hockey, and I'm like, I get that.
• 1:06:39
  Speaker 1: Certain guys just don't want to divulge any of their life.
• 1:06:42
  Speaker 1: Dog's wife fix whatever your interests are, Like, no, I'm
• 1:06:44
  Speaker 1: just want to talk hockey. That's and the hockey answers
• 1:06:46
  Speaker 1: were fine. But some guys, I think, like you said,
• 1:06:48
  Speaker 1: in certain venues are happy to discuss or other interests,
• 1:06:50
  Speaker 1: other pursuits. And food's a big part of it, man,
• 1:06:53
  Speaker 1: like you're fuel. If it's on, there's a big reason why.
• 1:06:55
  Speaker 1: It's part of your success.
• 1:06:56
  Speaker 2: And if it's off, you shit yourself. What happens to Bava,
• 1:07:02

• 1:08:01
