  Speaker 3: about is that basketball game tonight, watching my little girl
• 9:45
  Speaker 3: out on the court.
• 9:46
  Speaker 2: Yeah, you never miss any of that.
• 9:48
  Speaker 3: I've never missed a game.
• 9:50
  Speaker 2: You don't. You don't. Hell is burning. I don't up here.
• 9:54
  Speaker 2: You're still like, I'm over it. And here's the thing.
• 9:59
  Speaker 2: I have.
• 10:01
  Speaker 3: Disappointed a few number of people, friends and folks who
• 10:06
  Speaker 3: are acquaintances, members of different committees and organizations that I'm
• 10:13
  Speaker 3: involved with. I'm like, not missing a game. It's not
• 10:16
  Speaker 3: going to happen. So I don't blame you. That's tonight. Yeah,
• 10:21
  Speaker 3: so I just can't wait. Yeah, I'm gonna actually sit
• 10:24
  Speaker 3: down and watch a basketball game and then another one tomorrow.
• 10:28
  Speaker 3: I love, I love, I love you know what I love.
• 10:32
  Speaker 3: I mean, of course, I love watching Lily out on
• 10:35
  Speaker 3: the court. I just love watching families get together and
• 10:41
  Speaker 3: cheering on their kids, right, who are running up and
• 10:45
  Speaker 3: down and working together as a team, working on what
• 10:51
  Speaker 3: their coaches have tried to teach them.
• 10:53
  Speaker 2: Yep.
• 10:55
  Speaker 3: That's awesome.
• 10:56
  Speaker 2: Yeah, that's awesome. And when you have positive things like
• 11:00
  Speaker 2: that happening tonight, tomorrow, then Sunday a cruise. When you
• 11:06
  Speaker 2: have all those positive things happening, you can actually put
• 11:09
  Speaker 2: that in the front and stick the negative behind.
• 11:12
  Speaker 3: You know, I was thinking about you yesterday. Oh and
• 11:17
  Speaker 3: then remember you telling me about mental shelving.
• 11:23
  Speaker 2: Right, putting things in their box and then putting them
• 11:28
  Speaker 2: up on a shelf. Categorize, yes, compartmentalize, compartmentalizing certain things, yep,
• 11:37
  Speaker 2: And that is so important for us to do that, man,
• 11:40
  Speaker 2: it really is. Oh absolutely, If you carry everything that's
• 11:44
  Speaker 2: going on in your life and their lives around you
• 11:47
  Speaker 2: all up front, then you're so boggled down that you
• 11:51
  Speaker 2: can't even function But if you can take the things
• 11:55
  Speaker 2: and know, Okay, Donald Trump is doing this, I'm upset
• 11:58
  Speaker 2: about it. Great, I know that I am standard. It's
• 12:00
  Speaker 2: not going to consume my brain. Boom, it's up on
• 12:03
  Speaker 2: a shelf.
• 12:03
  Speaker 1: Sure.
• 12:04
  Speaker 2: You know Mary's upset with me because of blah blah blah,
• 12:07
  Speaker 2: and there's nothing I can say to make her feel better.
• 12:09
  Speaker 2: So boom, it's going on a shelf. Now, if Mary
• 12:12
  Speaker 2: calls me, I'll pull that off the shelf and I'll
• 12:15
  Speaker 2: open it, unbox it and do what I have to do. Sure, Okay,
• 12:19
  Speaker 2: if the elections are coming up, if I can make
• 12:22
  Speaker 2: a difference by saying no instead of yes, then I'm
• 12:26
  Speaker 2: going to pull that box down. I'm going to look
• 12:28
  Speaker 2: through it and I'm going to make my election. But
• 12:30
  Speaker 2: until you need that space, yep, until you basically or
• 12:34
  Speaker 2: mentally need to use it, Yeah, put it up there
• 12:38
  Speaker 2: and look at everything coming down the pike that's positive. Yeah,
• 12:41
  Speaker 2: and when you got something coming down the pike that's negative,
• 12:45
  Speaker 2: that you know it's negative and you and you're gonna
• 12:47
  Speaker 2: have to tunnel through it. Sure, use all the positive
• 12:50
  Speaker 2: stuff to push you through that negativity. That's what I do.
• 12:54
  Speaker 2: It is.
• 12:56
  Speaker 3: Easier for some folks to do this than others.
• 13:00
  Speaker 2: Absolutely, it takes practice.
• 13:02
  Speaker 3: It takes practice.
• 13:03
  Speaker 2: Has sixty three years to practice it.
• 13:06
  Speaker 3: Absolutely.
• 13:06
  Speaker 2: I know everybody don't know. I look good for sixty
• 13:09
  Speaker 2: three actually sixty two next month on the cruise.
• 13:14
  Speaker 3: I do you.
• 13:15
  Speaker 2: But but.
• 13:18
  Speaker 3: I know he's so right though. I mean, it's like
• 13:23
  Speaker 3: you have to, you know, you have to work at
• 13:25
  Speaker 3: this every day of being like, man, look, find the
• 13:31
  Speaker 3: even if it's listen, even if you've got a ton
• 13:34
  Speaker 3: of shit that's heaped up on top of you, find
• 13:37
  Speaker 3: the positive. Are you sitting on your own couch? Do
• 13:40
  Speaker 3: you have a roof over your head? Do you have
• 13:42
  Speaker 3: a hot cup of coffee in your hand yep? Do
• 13:44
  Speaker 3: you have a warm blanket? How's your dog? Dog is
• 13:47
  Speaker 3: good next to you?
• 13:48
  Speaker 2: Cuddle it?
• 13:49
  Speaker 3: You know, little things like that. Man.
• 13:51
  Speaker 2: Yeah, And it's funny because I have been a little
• 13:53
  Speaker 2: under the weather this week and my dog knew it,
• 13:58
  Speaker 2: like he just knew. And I'm laying on the couch
• 14:01
  Speaker 2: and he just jumps up and curls up into a
• 14:04
  Speaker 2: little ball next to my stomach and just was there.
• 14:07
  Speaker 2: And every now and then he would like look up
• 14:10
  Speaker 2: at me, like just to check and make sure I
• 14:13
  Speaker 2: was here, and then he'd go back to sleep, and
• 14:16
  Speaker 2: then he'd just pop his head up and look at me.
• 14:18
  Speaker 2: And so when you have, when you have those little
• 14:21
  Speaker 2: things that make you feel warm and fuzzy inside, you know, Okay,
• 14:25
  Speaker 2: you don't have the greatest house. Okay, you wish you
• 14:28
  Speaker 2: were richer, Okay, yeah, guess what people we all wish that, sure, okay,
• 14:33
  Speaker 2: and we all get mad when somebody that's eighty five
• 14:35
  Speaker 2: years old in aka wash whatever wins the lottery and
• 14:40
  Speaker 2: we get mad, Well, they're eighty something, they're not even

  Speaker 2: keep moving forward. I'm with you, you know, I mean,
• 14:51
  Speaker 2: you know what, but it would be nice to win
• 14:53
  Speaker 2: the fucking lottery.

• 15:37
  Speaker 3: Yesterday's episode was uh intense. Yeah yeah, Like Dan posted
• 15:48
  Speaker 3: hours later that he was still just kind of processing
• 15:52
  Speaker 3: it and I still am right, and I was the
• 15:56
  Speaker 3: one that was on the air, and I'm still like, uh,
• 16:00
  Speaker 3: what what was that all about? I mean, there was
• 16:02
  Speaker 3: a lot of stuff yesterday, and there were a couple
• 16:07
  Speaker 3: of different roads that went down with Rex, which was
• 16:15
  Speaker 3: eye opening and interesting. But this guy, Adam Swart from
• 16:26
  Speaker 3: Crowds on Demand dot com.
• 16:30
  Speaker 4: Ah.
• 16:31
  Speaker 3: For me, and you know, I'm at times a little
• 16:38
  Speaker 3: naive for me, that was like that really was kind
• 16:44
  Speaker 3: of unsettling for me, just to process how this world
• 16:55
  Speaker 3: and and what's what's being fed to us by the media,
• 17:01
  Speaker 3: what's being fed to us by friends, by acquaintances, by
• 17:10
  Speaker 3: what we see, by what we hear. You know, it's like,
• 17:14
  Speaker 3: what's what's real anymore? I mean, yesterday, if you if
• 17:18
  Speaker 3: you weren't tuned in yesterday, we had the CEO of
• 17:22
  Speaker 3: crowds OnDemand dot Com, Adam Schwart who was basically a company,
• 17:30
  Speaker 3: very successful company that hires people to be present during events,
• 17:41
  Speaker 3: public events.
• 17:42
  Speaker 2: Public events, whether it be a protest, whether it be
• 17:45
  Speaker 2: a wedding, whether whatever. Sure, there are people that are
• 17:49
  Speaker 2: hired for to go and and sit.
• 17:52
  Speaker 3: In product reveals, you know, company openings, but but also
• 17:59
  Speaker 3: protests and yes, political protests, and yeah, it was just
• 18:06
  Speaker 3: I don't know, man, just maybe it's my age. I
• 18:11
  Speaker 3: don't know. I was just surprised. I think I knew
• 18:16
  Speaker 3: on a certain level that some of this could be staged,
• 18:25
  Speaker 3: but I guess I didn't realize just how big of
• 18:29
  Speaker 3: a thing this is. And this is just one guy,
• 18:33
  Speaker 3: one company. You know. I was chatting with Paul yesterday
• 18:36
  Speaker 3: and he's like, there's much bigger companies that are bussing
• 18:41
  Speaker 3: people absolutely, like buses and hotels and like on a
• 18:48
  Speaker 3: much much larger scale. And I don't know, man, It's
• 18:52
  Speaker 3: like I'm still just kind of digesting this. I'm still
• 18:56
  Speaker 3: also kind of digesting that I can see something on
• 19:00
  Speaker 3: a computer or in a TV commercial or over the
• 19:06
  Speaker 3: shoulder of Lily's tablet and be like, oh my god,
• 19:11
  Speaker 3: look at that, and she'll be like, Dad, that's AI.
• 19:16
  Speaker 3: It's not even real.
• 19:17
  Speaker 2: Right.
• 19:17
  Speaker 3: I'm like, what, of course it's real. Of course it is. No,
• 19:22
  Speaker 3: and she's like, no, it's it's it's not. I mean,
• 19:25
  Speaker 3: she's eleven years old and she's she's she's able to
• 19:30
  Speaker 3: decipher right, yep, better much better than I am, much
• 19:36
  Speaker 3: much better than I am. Right, Dad, that's fake, it's fake.
• 19:40
  Speaker 2: Now, you do realize that this premise that I don't
• 19:45
  Speaker 2: want to say this delicately, but you realize this premise.
• 19:48
  Speaker 3: Let me have it.
• 19:49
  Speaker 2: Let me have that. You and Rex were attacking so
• 19:53
  Speaker 2: hard yesterday on Okay, which, by the way, interviewing a
• 19:57
  Speaker 2: CEO of a company and getting and telling him that
• 20:01
  Speaker 2: his stuff is blood money and stuff to me was inappropriate,
• 20:05
  Speaker 2: okay from this studio side, Okay, because here's somebody who
• 20:10
  Speaker 2: came on that didn't have to do what he did,
• 20:12
  Speaker 2: and he was trying to explain it. And if you
• 20:15
  Speaker 2: have an opinion, as an interviewer, you're supposed to listen,
• 20:19
  Speaker 2: ask good questions, challenge, but not insult. And I was
• 20:25
  Speaker 2: watching when one of you made the comment, well, that's
• 20:29
  Speaker 2: blood money. That's not for me. So you do your
• 20:32
  Speaker 2: gig and I'll do. And I'm like, first of all,
• 20:36
  Speaker 2: both you and Rex didn't have the full scope of
• 20:38
  Speaker 2: his thing. You only know pretty much his business based
• 20:42
  Speaker 2: on what he was trying to explain. You haven't done
• 20:45
  Speaker 2: really a deep dive into the entire demographics of it,
• 20:48
  Speaker 2: how it works, so you don't get to take what
• 20:52
  Speaker 2: he's saying in that short fifteen minute time and make
• 20:55
  Speaker 2: an overall judgment in my.
• 20:57
  Speaker 3: Opinion and assumption.
• 20:58
  Speaker 2: Okay, I'm with you, but what this guy is doing
• 21:01
  Speaker 2: right now has been done for years, years and years
• 21:04
  Speaker 2: and years, whether the person was paid or not. For example,
• 21:08
  Speaker 2: you've seen things where a company is opening or doing
• 21:11
  Speaker 2: a brand new start or whatever and they're like, wow,
• 21:14
  Speaker 2: we don't have a big crowd here, and we're on
• 21:15
  Speaker 2: the media. Hey cameraman, get in there, put the camera down.
• 21:19
  Speaker 2: We just won't use your camera. Get in, call some
• 21:21
  Speaker 2: people oversee if some people in the streets want to
• 21:24
  Speaker 2: come and be around here while we cut the ribbon.
• 21:27
  Speaker 2: It's it's a very common thing, especially when you're trying
• 21:30
  Speaker 2: to show a product or teach something you want, you know,
• 21:35
  Speaker 2: or have an influence right of some kind. And sometimes
• 21:39
  Speaker 2: if you're on camera, if you know you're going to
• 21:41
  Speaker 2: be seen, and it may be an impact to your
• 21:44
  Speaker 2: business and helping and this, and that they've done that
• 21:47
  Speaker 2: for years now. There are companies out there that are
• 21:51
  Speaker 2: financially offering. And when he used the word vetting, then
• 21:56
  Speaker 2: everybody was like vetting, how good to vet Webb? There's
• 22:00
  Speaker 2: really big because I did a deep dive on the
• 22:03
  Speaker 2: guy yesterday after I watched this show, and there really
• 22:06
  Speaker 2: is a full vetting process, because I went on the
• 22:09
  Speaker 2: site and I was like, oh, well, let me see
• 22:11
  Speaker 2: if there's anything in my area. There's a whole vetting
• 22:14
  Speaker 2: process before you even get considered. And it's not like
• 22:17
  Speaker 2: you're on salary where you can make a ton of
• 22:20
  Speaker 2: money doing this. This is something where you make a
• 22:22
  Speaker 2: spare this or that. It's not going to pay your livelihood. Okay,
• 22:27
  Speaker 2: So is there anything wrong with paying people to come,
• 22:31
  Speaker 2: especially with protests and stuff, because a lot of protests
• 22:36
  Speaker 2: are really really important, but they don't have the numbers
• 22:40
  Speaker 2: to make the effect when the cameras come in from
• 22:42
  Speaker 2: the media and stuff. So they send people there so
• 22:46
  Speaker 2: that when the media shows the crowd, it's like, hey,
• 22:50
  Speaker 2: this must be an important protest because there's a lot
• 22:54
  Speaker 2: of people protesting.
• 22:55
  Speaker 3: Okay, it's naive for me to think that that I
• 23:02
  Speaker 3: wish that if there were a public events where the
• 23:06
  Speaker 3: crowd came out. Is it naive for me to hope
• 23:11
  Speaker 3: or wish that that crowd was more localized and just
• 23:19
  Speaker 3: organically naturally coming together.
• 23:23
  Speaker 2: No, that's not naive at all. The ideal would love
• 23:27
  Speaker 2: to be that a crowd comes together in the local
• 23:30
  Speaker 2: area and not bust in or coming in whatever paid.
• 23:35
  Speaker 2: It's nice to know that the people that are actually
• 23:37
  Speaker 2: protesting are one hundred percent for the cause. Absolutely, yeah,
• 23:43
  Speaker 2: I mean that that's ideal. But if you're a program,
• 23:46
  Speaker 2: let's say a program that's cutting the ribbon for the
• 23:48
  Speaker 2: first time, and it's a controversial program that a lot
• 23:52
  Speaker 2: of people have misconceptions of, well, whatever the case may be.
• 23:57
  Speaker 2: So you're a ribbon cutting, there's not gonna be a
• 23:59
  Speaker 2: lot of people because a lot of them don't know
• 24:01
  Speaker 2: what it is, they're not comfortable with, they don't whatever
• 24:05
  Speaker 2: to bring in some people to help boost that program.
• 24:09
  Speaker 2: There's nothing wrong with that. And it's like I said,
• 24:12
  Speaker 2: it's been done for years. It's not blood money. If
• 24:16
  Speaker 2: somebody asked me, hey, do you believe in the LGBT
• 24:20
  Speaker 2: community protests, I'll be like, you know, I'm not into
• 24:22
  Speaker 2: protesting because that's not my thing, but I one hundred
• 24:25
  Speaker 2: percent believe it. Well, then can you do me? Hey,
• 24:27
  Speaker 2: I'll give you a hundred bucks if you don't mind
• 24:29
  Speaker 2: going and being one of the people they at least
• 24:31
  Speaker 2: stand there because you believe in it. You just don't
• 24:35
  Speaker 2: want to hold crazy signs, So could you just go?
• 24:38
  Speaker 3: Okay, Paul, there were a few that kind of, for
• 24:44
  Speaker 3: lack of a better term, shamed me yesterday after I
• 24:48
  Speaker 3: got off the air of fl like Jane and then I
• 24:51
  Speaker 3: go and do it on the air. I know, I
• 24:55
  Speaker 3: think that. I think that's wonderful because here's I have
• 24:58
  Speaker 3: to learn.
• 24:59
  Speaker 2: Man.
• 25:00
  Speaker 3: It's like people were like, JD, this has been going on,
• 25:05
  Speaker 3: like you just said, right, for a long time, man.
• 25:08
  Speaker 2: Yeah, before it was a paything long time.
• 25:11
  Speaker 3: I mean, Paul, I was on the phone with him
• 25:14
  Speaker 3: for half an hour last night and he's like, Bro,
• 25:18
  Speaker 3: you should know that you, you of all people, should
• 25:23
  Speaker 3: know that, right being in the media, that this kind
• 25:26
  Speaker 3: of shit happens. And I'm like, Paul, I didn't know, right,
• 25:32
  Speaker 3: I didn't know, you know, but it just makes it
• 25:35
  Speaker 3: makes me, you know, like Rex was kind of alluding
• 25:39
  Speaker 3: to yesterday, on the air. It just kind of makes
• 25:41
  Speaker 3: me wonder, you know, like what I'm looking at on
• 25:43
  Speaker 3: my phone, if I'm seeing reels of some of the
• 25:46
  Speaker 3: protesting that's going on in Minnesota, how much of that
• 25:49
  Speaker 3: is really authentically genuine, right versus well, the protest that's
• 26:00
  Speaker 3: versus you know, acting.
• 26:05
  Speaker 2: I guess right, well, the protest that's going on over
• 26:09
  Speaker 2: there is definitely real, okay, because number one, the protesters
• 26:15
  Speaker 2: that are hired are asked to go to these kind
• 26:17
  Speaker 2: of things are peaceful protests. They're not in the thick
• 26:21
  Speaker 2: of it, getting into fights and all that stuff. That's
• 26:24
  Speaker 2: not what they're hired or what they're asked to do. Okay.
• 26:27
  Speaker 2: But what's going on over there right now, we know
• 26:30
  Speaker 2: this is real because it's you see the fire and
• 26:33
  Speaker 2: you see all that stuff going on. The thing that
• 26:37
  Speaker 2: concerns me is when somebody says things like maybe yeah,
• 26:43
  Speaker 2: or they say or not. You know, one of the
• 26:48
  Speaker 2: things you guys were talking about every time you were
• 26:50
  Speaker 2: talking about it, like well I saw the protester maybe,
• 26:55
  Speaker 2: and I don't buy that maybe, okay, Because first of all,
• 26:59
  Speaker 2: if you're going to live your high life by seeing
• 27:01
  Speaker 2: or hearing something and then saying maybe behind it, that's
• 27:04
  Speaker 2: a conspiracy thing, okay, And I'm not into conspiracy shit, bro,
• 27:09
  Speaker 2: I'm okay. So when somebody says to me, hey, breaking news,
• 27:13
  Speaker 2: bah bah bah, I trust, but verify. That's one of
• 27:18
  Speaker 2: the things I mentioned yesterday when I was typing trust
• 27:21
  Speaker 2: but verify. I trust what you're saying. I trust what
• 27:24
  Speaker 2: the media is saying. Now I'm going to verify because
• 27:27
  Speaker 2: there's things I've read on Facebook that's the whole thing
• 27:30
  Speaker 2: about something Donald Trump did, and I'm like, oh my god.
• 27:35
  Speaker 2: And then I go to the news sources and guess what.
• 27:38
  Speaker 2: None of that is in the news.
• 27:40
  Speaker 3: So here's the thing. There's people that trust and believe
• 27:44
  Speaker 3: everything that is told to them, everything that they see
• 27:47
  Speaker 3: on their phones or on TV or whatever, yep, reading
• 27:49
  Speaker 3: the paper, whatever. Right. Then there's people who trusting something's
• 27:55
  Speaker 3: questioning others not sure this doesn't smell right, blah blah blah.
• 28:00
  Speaker 3: And then there are others that like, don't believe anything
• 28:05
  Speaker 3: you hear, correct, don't believe anything you see.
• 28:08
  Speaker 2: That's my brother doesn't believe anything on the news or whatever.
• 28:14
  Speaker 3: Everything is fake? What what? And And you could say, oh,
• 28:18
  Speaker 3: you know, to the to these folks, Oh my god,
• 28:23
  Speaker 3: did you hear did you hear what happened last night
• 28:25
  Speaker 3: in New York City?
• 28:26
  Speaker 2: Well? What happened?
• 28:27
  Speaker 3: Oh there was a bubba? Well that's do you really
• 28:31
  Speaker 3: believe that that happened? Or do you think that that's
• 28:35
  Speaker 3: that's fake? I know, I mean do you believe everything
• 28:38
  Speaker 3: that you that you hear?
• 28:40
  Speaker 2: Right?
• 28:40
  Speaker 3: And I feel like saying, do you not believe everything
• 28:44
  Speaker 3: that you hear?
• 28:45
  Speaker 2: Listen?
• 28:45
  Speaker 3: I mean, at some point we have to come to
• 28:48
  Speaker 3: some a little bit of common ground here where we
• 28:51
  Speaker 3: have to like say, hey, is it true that we
• 28:55
  Speaker 3: are alive? Yes?
• 28:58
  Speaker 2: Right?
• 28:58
  Speaker 3: Is it true that this guy is blue? Right now?
• 29:03
  Speaker 4: Yes?
• 29:03
  Speaker 2: Right?
• 29:04
  Speaker 3: It is? Is it true that there was just a
• 29:07
  Speaker 3: plane crash in Florida? Well that's what the news told you,
• 29:12
  Speaker 3: but there probably wasn't right. I mean, come on, man,
• 29:16
  Speaker 3: It's like, at some point we've got to like.
• 29:19
  Speaker 2: It's it's I hear you, but you know what I'm saying. Yes,
• 29:22
  Speaker 2: It's like when I make a new friend. Okay, when
• 29:27
  Speaker 2: I make a new friend, it's a clean slate. I
• 29:29
  Speaker 2: don't care if somebody told me this person's evil, blah
• 29:32
  Speaker 2: blah blah. I don't give a shit about any of that.
• 29:34
  Speaker 2: If I come across this person for the first time,
• 29:37
  Speaker 2: I give them a clean slate.
• 29:40
  Speaker 3: Me exactly the same.
• 29:42
  Speaker 2: They could be dicks to everybody else, but I start
• 29:44
  Speaker 2: with a clean slate. When they start acting up or
• 29:48
  Speaker 2: they start doing whatever, and I see flags in the
• 29:52
  Speaker 2: color red, then I start doing the checklist. Okay, yes,
• 29:57
  Speaker 2: is this going to work? Is this person being since
• 30:00
  Speaker 2: blah blah blah? Okay, And then I may use other
• 30:03
  Speaker 2: resources like other people to find out why there's such
• 30:06
  Speaker 2: an issue with this person. Sure, that to me is trust,
• 30:09
  Speaker 2: but verify. Sure, Okay, I trust the person until something,
• 30:13
  Speaker 2: and then I verify. Well, when it comes to the news,
• 30:15
  Speaker 2: the media, all this other stuff that we hear, are
• 30:18
  Speaker 2: there are aliens up there? And was that light an alien?
• 30:21
  Speaker 2: Did Trump really say this? And did the Republicans really
• 30:24
  Speaker 2: feel this way? I listen to it, I read it,
• 30:28
  Speaker 2: but then I verify it. Before I can go out
• 30:31
  Speaker 2: and say, hey, ged such and such happened, I verify it.
• 30:35
  Speaker 2: I check them different newspapers, I check the different outsources
• 30:39
  Speaker 2: and stuff. And if I hear it from there also,
• 30:43
  Speaker 2: then I can say definitively that I believe in this
• 30:48
  Speaker 2: because it's out.
• 30:49
  Speaker 3: There I got you. But the thing is a lot
• 30:51
  Speaker 3: of us don't either have the time or make the
• 30:55
  Speaker 3: time or take the time to do that verify.
• 30:58
  Speaker 2: Well, then that's ignorance because we're flying around. No. No,
• 31:03
  Speaker 2: that's when you can't judge it. You can't yay or
• 31:07
  Speaker 2: nay it. Okay, you can't judge something if you can't
• 31:11
  Speaker 2: if you don't have all the fact.
• 31:12
  Speaker 3: But as a society, as a human we are more
• 31:16
  Speaker 3: reactive we were. We're magnetized to the drama. Holy shit,
• 31:22
  Speaker 3: look at that boom. We share it our social media.
• 31:26
  Speaker 2: Exactly that, And that's the problem. I've done it, Okay,
• 31:31
  Speaker 2: I don't care if you see you know what, GF.
• 31:33
  Speaker 2: I've seen stuff in the morning. You've caught me doing that,
• 31:36
  Speaker 2: and I've read stuff in the morning, and I didn't
• 31:39
  Speaker 2: discuss it with you or anyone else until later in
• 31:43
  Speaker 2: the afternoon or that evening when I took the time
• 31:46
  Speaker 2: to verify it. Yeah, okay, There'll be things that I'll
• 31:49
  Speaker 2: say to my brother, Hey, by the way, did you
• 31:51
  Speaker 2: hear this morning? I saw in the news Trump did
• 31:53
  Speaker 2: bubb bah bah And my brother's like really, I'm like yeah,
• 31:57
  Speaker 2: And then I've got an egg on my face for
• 31:59
  Speaker 2: my brother to me later. Listen. So I looked that
• 32:01
  Speaker 2: whole thing up, and that's not what happened. What happened
• 32:04
  Speaker 2: is bubbah. But well I didn't verify, and here I
• 32:07
  Speaker 2: am going around saying something that I saw without verifying. Yeah,
• 32:10
  Speaker 2: and then when I did the homework, it did happen,
• 32:13
  Speaker 2: but in a very awful way. What I read sure
• 32:17
  Speaker 2: was much more sensationalized than what it really was. Yeah, okay.
• 32:23
  Speaker 2: So and a lot of times, one of the things
• 32:27
  Speaker 2: you talked about yesterday that there was one hundred percent
• 32:29
  Speaker 2: on board with is just unplugged for a while, right man.
• 32:32
  Speaker 2: You know, just people say, oh, I can't be without
• 32:34
  Speaker 2: my phone. Guess what, I leave my phone home when
• 32:37
  Speaker 2: I go out because I don't need to talk to
• 32:40
  Speaker 2: anybody special, Okay, And if I have emergency, my car
• 32:45
  Speaker 2: except for me, right, But if I have an emergency,
• 32:47
  Speaker 2: my car has a button and it calls the police,
• 32:50
  Speaker 2: that calls the ambulace. So I just sometimes I need
• 32:54
  Speaker 2: to unplug, and I'll go out for the day with ched.
• 32:57
  Speaker 2: We'll go to Burlington and back. Yeah, and I'll wanted
• 33:00
  Speaker 2: to get a phone case, so I'll buy the phone case.
• 33:02
  Speaker 2: So when I bring it home, I can put it
• 33:03
  Speaker 2: on my phone because I didn't take the phone with me.
• 33:06
  Speaker 2: A lot of times my son says, I tried to
• 33:08
  Speaker 2: call you, but you didn't pick up. And I'm like, oh,
• 33:11
  Speaker 2: I'm sorry, I didn't have my phone. Or I'll go
• 33:13
  Speaker 2: to the bathroom and take a shower and I leave
• 33:15
  Speaker 2: my phone.
• 33:16
  Speaker 3: You have your phone in the shower.
• 33:18
  Speaker 4: No, what?
• 33:19
  Speaker 2: No, Because I just don't think. I think sometimes you
• 33:22
  Speaker 2: need to unplug from the media. And if you're going
• 33:25
  Speaker 2: to scroll through Facebook, scroll through that to see what
• 33:28
  Speaker 2: your friends are saying. But if you see something political,
• 33:31
  Speaker 2: it's okay to just scroll past that and unplug from it.
• 33:34
  Speaker 3: I know, you know. I was on the down on
• 33:37
  Speaker 3: the waterfront in Burlington the other day and there's so
• 33:46
  Speaker 3: many people that are moving up and down that boardwalk
• 33:54
  Speaker 3: over by the Echo Center there. Yeah, and they're all
• 33:58
  Speaker 3: down here like this, yeah yeah, walking, yeah, jogging. I
• 34:06
  Speaker 3: saw people jogging, i know, looking at their phones with
• 34:11
  Speaker 3: the earbudson, looking and listening. Yeah, my god, mate, So
• 34:16
  Speaker 3: I look up. I look I know that. I know
• 34:20
  Speaker 3: you're right. I look up and there were breaks in
• 34:25
  Speaker 3: the in the clouds over the Adirondacks on the other
• 34:28
  Speaker 3: side of the lake, and the sun was there were
• 34:32
  Speaker 3: these sunbeams that were coming through right that were lighting
• 34:36
  Speaker 3: up the tops of the Adirondacks, which were white with
• 34:41
  Speaker 3: snow caps, and there was some snow. There were little
• 34:45
  Speaker 3: like snow flurries and stuff that were captured in the
• 34:50
  Speaker 3: beams of the sun coming down, and it was unbelievable.
• 34:56
  Speaker 3: It was so beautiful. I'll you know, I did take
• 34:58
  Speaker 3: a picture. I'll share the pic sure if I can
• 35:01
  Speaker 3: remember after I get off the air.
• 35:03
  Speaker 2: Here, Okay, all these people miss that, yeah, yeah, because
• 35:07
  Speaker 2: we're looking because they don't know how to unplug. And
• 35:10
  Speaker 2: that's why, God, man, I spend a lot of time unplugged,
• 35:14
  Speaker 2: because I mean, you've called me and been like, what
• 35:16
  Speaker 2: the fuck? He doesn't pick up his phone? Yeah, And
• 35:18
  Speaker 2: then you'll send me a text and an hour later
• 35:20
  Speaker 2: I'll respond.
• 35:22
  Speaker 3: I what I love that. I love that. I seriously. Yeah,
• 35:27
  Speaker 3: I'll say that to any of my friends. You talk
• 35:30
  Speaker 3: to me when it's a good time for you, right,
• 35:34
  Speaker 3: and not a minute sooner?
• 35:36
  Speaker 2: Right. Well, And that's why I said, you know, all
• 35:39
  Speaker 2: these things you're worrying about. This guy who's paying people
• 35:42
  Speaker 2: to do crowds and is it real, isn't it real? Whatever?
• 35:46
  Speaker 2: Does it matter to you?
• 35:47
  Speaker 3: That's the that's the question.
• 35:49
  Speaker 5: You know.
• 35:49
  Speaker 2: If you're giving that much weight to that, then then
• 35:52
  Speaker 2: you need to go find a hobby. Yeah, and I'm
• 35:55
  Speaker 2: not saying that's sarcastically, no, I know I need to
• 35:58
  Speaker 2: find a hobby. You need to find something that can
• 36:01
  Speaker 2: occupy your mind in the positive. You know a perfect example.
• 36:04
  Speaker 2: I was talking to Masmo last night and we very
• 36:07
  Speaker 2: rarely get to talk. We talk for about forty five minutes,
• 36:11
  Speaker 2: which is the longest we ever have. Your son, Yes,
• 36:14
  Speaker 2: and he and I were talking about the same thing
• 36:18
  Speaker 2: that he says, well that I have so many things
• 36:20
  Speaker 2: going on in my life, but I'm not enjoying anything.
• 36:23
  Speaker 2: I said, well, what do you enjoy? He said, well,
• 36:25
  Speaker 2: I don't have time for what I enjoy. I says,
• 36:27
  Speaker 2: there's your biggest mistake. Because if you have a passion,
• 36:31
  Speaker 2: Jed's passion is drawing, Okay, he loves to draw, he
• 36:34
  Speaker 2: loves to sketch. Those are his things, yeah, not even
• 36:37
  Speaker 2: the woodworking, his drawing, okay. My passion is my music Okay,
• 36:42
  Speaker 2: my piano, my keyboard and music around me. So I
• 36:46
  Speaker 2: said to maas you need to find that passion and
• 36:51
  Speaker 2: take a piece of that and incorporate it into every day.
• 36:56
  Speaker 2: Because if you're so consumed with life itself that you're
• 36:59
  Speaker 2: not living, okay, that that what President Trump did, or
• 37:03
  Speaker 2: what Biden used to do, or what the republic. If
• 37:06
  Speaker 2: you're so consumed with all of that things you need
• 37:10
  Speaker 2: you need to pull back from that a little bit
• 37:12
  Speaker 2: and find one of your passions that you can fill
• 37:15
  Speaker 2: in a little bit. So and when you're doing that passion, unplug,
• 37:20
  Speaker 2: shut your phone off, and draw. When I play the keyboard,
• 37:24
  Speaker 2: I don't have the phone next to me. If somebody calls,
• 37:26
  Speaker 2: I'm going to stop. If I'm in the middle of
• 37:28
  Speaker 2: playing a concerto, I'm certainly not going to stop to
• 37:31
  Speaker 2: answer a phone.
• 37:32
  Speaker 3: So so I just.
• 37:36
  Speaker 2: Keep the phone in the whole different room, Okay. And
• 37:40
  Speaker 2: that's what you got to do. And if you're so
• 37:42
  Speaker 2: worried about this guy that we spoke to yesterday who
• 37:45
  Speaker 2: wasn't necessarily treated as fairly as he should, and yet
• 37:48
  Speaker 2: he eloquently handled everything thrown at.
• 37:50
  Speaker 3: Him, I sent him an email last night and thanked
• 37:53
  Speaker 3: him procusely.
• 37:54
  Speaker 2: Yeah, if you're if you're so concerned that about that,
• 37:57
  Speaker 2: and you're so concerned about what's happening in this country.
• 38:00
  Speaker 2: Step back. I challenge people to shut their phone off
• 38:04
  Speaker 2: for four hours and do something else.
• 38:08
  Speaker 3: Yeah, and then when you get back to.
• 38:09
  Speaker 2: Your phone in four hours, you're gonna be like, Oh,
• 38:11
  Speaker 2: that wasn't too bad because it took me a while
• 38:14
  Speaker 2: to unplug. But now when I unplug, I unplug. You know,
• 38:18
  Speaker 2: nine o'clock at night. I turned my phone off completely
• 38:21
  Speaker 2: at nine every single night, and anybody who calls it
• 38:24
  Speaker 2: text me after nine. I'll get it in the morning. Yeah,
• 38:28
  Speaker 2: you know, beautiful words coming in, just saying God, that
• 38:32
  Speaker 2: was deep. And by the way, had we no birthdays today?
• 38:35
  Speaker 3: Yeah, we do it.
• 38:37
  Speaker 2: I'll get to them in a second. Calm down, I'm
• 38:38
  Speaker 2: just calm down.
• 38:40
  Speaker 4: I'm just saying.
• 38:42
  Speaker 3: Chuck just wrote in says you need to make time
• 38:44
  Speaker 3: for yourself, for your happiness. Otherwise, what's the point of life.
• 38:49
  Speaker 3: Live the life you were given. Remember, we are all
• 38:54
  Speaker 3: winners out of those billions of little Can you see
• 39:05
  Speaker 3: the comment there, This one I didn't read first any way.
• 39:13
  Speaker 3: Jesus God, you know.
• 39:18
  Speaker 2: A lot.

  Speaker 3: I don't handswer at the devil's work. I mean, this
• 39:21
  Speaker 3: is all true stuff.
• 39:22
  Speaker 2: Yeah, but see, these are the lessons we were taught
• 39:25
  Speaker 2: when we were younger, right, okay, And so it's easy
• 39:29
  Speaker 2: for us to say that, but the young generation will
• 39:31
  Speaker 2: be like, I don't handle what what are you talking about?
• 39:33
  Speaker 2: What is that? And those are very important statements. They
• 39:36
  Speaker 2: sound ridiculous, but they are important statements because if you're
• 39:40
  Speaker 2: left to your own devices to think about all the
• 39:43
  Speaker 2: stuff that's going on, positive and negative, you you fill
• 39:47
  Speaker 2: up so much of your brain that then you're like,
• 39:50
  Speaker 2: oh my god, I have such a headache all the time.
• 39:52
  Speaker 2: I got to go see the doctor. Why don't you

• 1:00:10
  Speaker 2: to be? Yes, yep, yes, yep, yes, that's uh, that's
• 1:00:16
  Speaker 2: my challenge. Anything that burns yours.
• 1:00:20
  Speaker 3: There's nothing that's really burning the old ass.
• 1:00:25
  Speaker 2: And you know why, you know why I'm okay because
• 1:00:28
  Speaker 2: we're putting all the other stuff on the side and
• 1:00:31
  Speaker 2: we're looking at the positive. So there's nothing that burns
• 1:00:34
  Speaker 2: my ass.
• 1:00:35
  Speaker 3: Listen, it's okay though, if there is something that burns
• 1:00:39
  Speaker 3: your ass, right, if you you pull up to the
• 1:00:44
  Speaker 3: the gas pump, yeah, and that guy in front of
• 1:00:47
  Speaker 3: you went inside the shop, went inside the shop, and
• 1:00:53
  Speaker 3: you're waiting for the pump, or he didn't pull forward
• 1:00:58
  Speaker 3: enough and you can't get in, get in far enough
• 1:01:03
  Speaker 3: because he parked like an asshole.
• 1:01:06
  Speaker 2: Well, I'll be honest with you, that's that's okay.
• 1:01:09
  Speaker 3: That burns your out.
• 1:01:10
  Speaker 2: But you know what, a lot of it I blame
• 1:01:12
  Speaker 2: on the pumps and the companies. And I'll tell you why.
• 1:01:16
  Speaker 2: If you go to Costco and you get gas at Costco,
• 1:01:19
  Speaker 2: because you remember, they're pump hose and it says right
• 1:01:23
  Speaker 2: there are long enough that you don't have to go
• 1:01:27
  Speaker 2: one way, go the other way, and the hose reaches
• 1:01:31
  Speaker 2: all the way around the car to the other side.
• 1:01:33
  Speaker 2: So maybe if all these gas stations and stuff would
• 1:01:37
  Speaker 2: install all these better length hoses, then if somebody's parked
• 1:01:42
  Speaker 2: either the wrong way or they're blocking the pump or whatever,
• 1:01:46
  Speaker 2: you can go on the other side and just pull
• 1:01:48
  Speaker 2: your hose all the way around.
• 1:01:49
  Speaker 3: Just my thought for the day. If you're going out
• 1:01:53
  Speaker 3: to the movies tonight or through the weekend FGB theaters,
• 1:02:01
  Speaker 3: that's the site you need to get on for the
• 1:02:03
  Speaker 3: Capitol Showplace theater in the Paramount Twin. If you haven't
• 1:02:08
  Speaker 3: gone to a movie lately, please treat yourself, unplug escape,

• 1:02:16

• 1:03:13

  Speaker 3: was my good buddy Andy. He was sleeping too.
• 1:03:37

• 1:03:43

• 1:03:55
  Speaker 3: but anyway, again, that's just my opinion.

• 1:03:58
  Speaker 3: There's you have a tars like a cult, man, people
• 1:04:01

• 1:04:07
  Speaker 2: that was a cult thing that people either swore by
• 1:04:10
  Speaker 2: it and after they watched an episode they for a
• 1:04:13
  Speaker 2: little while they thought they were Tony soprano talking the
• 1:04:16

  Speaker 3: later year.
• 1:07:49
  Speaker 2: Every three years? Is that what it is is? Every
• 1:07:52
  Speaker 2: three years because I least because I don't put it
• 1:07:53
  Speaker 2: a lot of my Like I've had my car now
• 1:07:55
  Speaker 2: a year. It was brand new with zero miles on it,
• 1:07:58
  Speaker 2: and I've got four thousand on it for the whole year.
• 1:08:02
  Speaker 2: So when I trade my vehicle back in at the
• 1:08:05
  Speaker 2: end of the lease, it's I actually get money back
• 1:08:09
  Speaker 2: to put on something else because the value is higher
• 1:08:13
  Speaker 2: than what it should because the mileage is so low.
• 1:08:16

• 1:08:40
  Speaker 3: And when I buy something, I want to I want
• 1:08:43
  Speaker 3: to have it for the duration, right, I want to
• 1:08:46
  Speaker 3: have it for a long time.
• 1:08:47
  Speaker 2: Yep, No, I know that, And that's why people say, oh,
• 1:08:50
  Speaker 2: out with the old, in with the new. That's me,
• 1:08:53
  Speaker 2: you know. Now, one of the vehicles I'm looking to
• 1:08:56
  Speaker 2: buy is a very expensive one. It's over one hundred grand,
• 1:09:00
  Speaker 2: so I may look at used but I don't know yet.
• 1:09:07
  Speaker 2: But yeah, I definitely enjoy and I've been a year
• 1:09:12
  Speaker 2: in and I'm already looking at ideas for what i want.
• 1:09:16
  Speaker 3: All Right, Tomorrow morning, Saturday, ten thirty, Logan Lowis, Yeah,
• 1:09:23
  Speaker 3: Logan Lowse will be right here with the Athletics podcast.
• 1:09:26
  Speaker 3: He's going to be obviously talking a lot about the
• 1:09:29
  Speaker 3: playoffs this weekend. Which Dolphins are not in the playoffs,
• 1:09:34
  Speaker 3: neither of the Steelers. Oh, that's a whole nother he'll
• 1:09:40
  Speaker 3: talk about it. But one of the other things he's
• 1:09:42
  Speaker 3: going to be talking about. And I don't know if
• 1:09:44
  Speaker 3: you woke up to this news or not. It I
• 1:09:47
  Speaker 3: think it kind of broke last night. Federal prosecutors have
• 1:09:52
  Speaker 3: charged twenty six people. I want to see the look
• 1:09:58
  Speaker 3: on your face, to see how surprised you are an
• 1:10:01
  Speaker 3: alleged multi year scheme to fix at least twenty nine
• 1:10:12
  Speaker 3: professional basketball games in the United States and China, accusing
• 1:10:18
  Speaker 3: them of manipulating games to generate illegal betting profits. A
• 1:10:25
  Speaker 3: seventy page indictment. This has been going from September twenty
• 1:10:31
  Speaker 3: twenty two through February twenty twenty five, starting with Point
• 1:10:37
  Speaker 3: Shaving NCAA Division One men's basketball. We have nine players
• 1:10:45
  Speaker 3: from seventeen teams linked to the operation. Bribes allegedly ranging
• 1:10:52
  Speaker 3: from ten grand to thirty grand per game per game.
• 1:11:00
  Speaker 3: This is a conspiracy to commit wirefraud, wire fraud itself, bribery,
• 1:11:06
  Speaker 3: and sporting contest cities are some of the charges. Each
• 1:11:10
  Speaker 3: fraud charge carries a potential sentence of up to twenty years. Sam,
• 1:11:16
  Speaker 3: are you you're not surprised by this? No, No, you're
• 1:11:23
  Speaker 3: not surprised by now.
• 1:11:24
  Speaker 2: There's been a lot of gambling scams and stuff over
• 1:11:28
  Speaker 2: the years with sports.
• 1:11:29
  Speaker 3: And I'm the big one not long ago that apparently
• 1:11:33
  Speaker 3: the mob was involved with.
• 1:11:35
  Speaker 2: I'm surprised that it's happening on that level right now
• 1:11:39
  Speaker 2: because I would have thought by now the players and
• 1:11:42
  Speaker 2: the people that are involved with the players doing this
• 1:11:46
  Speaker 2: would know by now that you're going to get caught.
• 1:11:50
  Speaker 2: You know, based on all the other people that have
• 1:11:52
  Speaker 2: gotten caught and shamed, you'd think that you would know better.
• 1:11:57
  Speaker 2: But clearly they don't, and they'll they'll do what they
• 1:12:02
  Speaker 2: They're gonna get what's coming to them, and it's disciplint
• 1:12:05
  Speaker 2: because that would never happen from the Dolphins team. The
• 1:12:09
  Speaker 2: Dolphins never would do that. So and you and you
• 1:12:12
  Speaker 2: can you if you don't believe me, ask Diane up
• 1:12:15
  Speaker 2: at the Meltdown, which is a fabulous place to eat,
• 1:12:17
  Speaker 2: by the way, but over at the Meltdown, Diane, she's
• 1:12:21
  Speaker 2: a die hard fan of the Dolphins, whether they suck
• 1:12:25
  Speaker 2: or not. Like me, she's got Dolphin things all over
• 1:12:28
  Speaker 2: the place. So yeah, but.
• 1:12:35
  Speaker 3: I don't know if you know Joey Merlino my boss Philadelphia, Okay,
• 1:12:43
  Speaker 3: but he is like.
• 1:12:44
  Speaker 2: Why would I know him? Am I supposed to? Like, well,
• 1:12:48
  Speaker 2: you're Italian? Oh well, I mean that's every Italian buckled
• 1:12:52
  Speaker 2: down because apparently Wall Mob that's it.
• 1:12:55
  Speaker 3: I mean, that's it right there. And listen to you.
• 1:12:58
  Speaker 3: I mean everyone knows you. You get the long Island accent.
• 1:13:01
  Speaker 3: Con I do have the long Guyland accent. Go and
• 1:13:04
  Speaker 3: you see coffee, so coffee. Joey Merlino is I heard
• 1:13:11
  Speaker 3: a podcast recently with him where he was like, if
• 1:13:14
  Speaker 3: you don't think that all professional and NCAA teams are
• 1:13:22
  Speaker 3: corrupt and rigged. You're you got your head in the sand,
• 1:13:26
  Speaker 3: including the NFL. Wow, It's like, why bother watching?
• 1:13:32
  Speaker 2: Then?
• 1:13:32
  Speaker 3: If you if this stuff is really not legit, why
• 1:13:36
  Speaker 3: bother watching any any major sporting event? I don't know. Man,
• 1:13:41
  Speaker 3: a whole nother podcast. Behave yourself, take good care of
• 1:13:48
  Speaker 3: each other. We we had some fun this morning, but
• 1:13:52
  Speaker 3: we also had some some messaging that I think all
• 1:13:57
  Speaker 3: of us, including myself, needs to listen to our own advice.
• 1:14:04
  Speaker 3: Slow down, slow down, allow things in your life to percolate.
• 1:14:13
  Speaker 2: Yeah, a little bit, and try to let the negative
• 1:14:16
  Speaker 2: roll off your back like water on a duck. You know,
• 1:14:19
  Speaker 2: try give it, give it. If you're not even going
• 1:14:21
  Speaker 2: to give it an effort, then then you want to
• 1:14:24
  Speaker 2: be miserable. So try, you know, ask the challenging questions
• 1:14:29
  Speaker 2: and ask them to yourself. You know, there are times
• 1:14:32
  Speaker 2: I look in the mirror and I ask myself very
• 1:14:34
  Speaker 2: challenging questions like do you want to give up? Are
• 1:14:38
  Speaker 2: you finished with this? Do you have willpower to do
• 1:14:41
  Speaker 2: one more day? You know? Can you unplug for an
• 1:14:45
  Speaker 2: extra hour this week? You know, tough questions that you
• 1:14:49
  Speaker 2: don't want to answer. You know, are you that depressed
• 1:14:51
  Speaker 2: that you want to end it. You know, No, I'm
• 1:14:54
  Speaker 2: not that depressed. Well then how are you going to
• 1:14:56
  Speaker 2: get out of it? You know, talk to yourself, ask
• 1:14:59
  Speaker 2: yourself these important questions and find ways. Find things to
• 1:15:03
  Speaker 2: do that are more productive to your psyche, right, you know,
• 1:15:10
  Speaker 2: feed yourself, feed yourself good energy by doing things you enjoy,
• 1:15:17
  Speaker 2: you know, taking the good. If you have no good
• 1:15:20
  Speaker 2: in your life right now, find a way to take
• 1:15:21
  Speaker 2: it in. It's okay to.
• 1:15:26
  Speaker 3: It's okay to worry a little bit about what's going
• 1:15:31
  Speaker 3: on right in the world. It's okay to worry a
• 1:15:34
  Speaker 3: little bit about your friends, or your family or yourself.
• 1:15:38
  Speaker 3: But just try.
• 1:15:40
  Speaker 2: But don't let that eat your brain.
• 1:15:41
  Speaker 3: Yeah, man, because if you if you let it, it
• 1:15:44
  Speaker 3: definitely will.
• 1:15:45
  Speaker 2: It will. Yeah, as definitely will. Look at what it
• 1:15:48
  Speaker 2: did to Michael. Yeah, that outfit. That just tells you
• 1:15:52
  Speaker 2: right there, very sad. He clearly lets let somebody else
• 1:15:56
  Speaker 2: get into his brain. And now he doesn't even make
• 1:15:59
  Speaker 2: the you know, I mean, that's an effort. A look
• 1:16:04
  Speaker 2: like that is. It's a thing.
• 1:16:07
  Speaker 4: It's a thing.
• 1:16:10
  Speaker 3: God bless Michael. Poor Michael. Have a great weekend everybody,
