- 4:29Speaker 5: to try and get this over before the heat because
- 4:31Speaker 5: you don't have insulation in your She's got a soft
- 4:34Speaker 5: one of those Yeah, one of those vehicles where it's
- 4:36Speaker 5: just fabric, which means you're gonna hot, you're gonna bake.
- 4:41Speaker 5: And I asked you, does it matter when it comes
- 4:45Speaker 5: to your seat heater? So, because I was like, do
- 4:47Speaker 5: you have seat heaters? Like, well, no, not on the
- 4:48Speaker 5: AC ones. They know it doesn't matter because it don't
- 4:51Speaker 5: matter how hot it would be for me.
- 4:54Speaker 7: The seat heater is always on.
- 4:56Speaker 4: That is so freakish.
- 4:59Speaker 7: Yeah, I turn it.
- 5:01Speaker 5: The AC will probably be as maxed out as it
- 5:05Speaker 5: can be. But the seat heater is always on in
- 5:10Speaker 5: my vehicle, it matter if it's one hundred and ten
- 5:12Speaker 5: degrees outside. That thing's always Why is this because it's
- 5:15Speaker 5: the only way to drive. And if you haven't done it,
- 5:19Speaker 5: and you haven't experienced it, I don't know what to
- 5:22Speaker 5: tell you.
- 5:22Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean I've I've have been in vehicles. We've
- 5:25Speaker 1: owned vehicles with seed heaters. The only time I've ever
- 5:28Speaker 1: turned them on is when the seat was cold.
- 5:30Speaker 5: You've only only in the winter to get nice and
- 5:33Speaker 5: warm and toasty.
- 5:35Speaker 7: That's the only the.
- 5:35Speaker 1: Current vehicle has none of that. It doesn't have a
- 5:38Speaker 1: seat heater. It doesn't have a seat cooler. You know why,
- 5:44Speaker 1: because the bells and whistles have to stop someplace.
- 5:48Speaker 4: I look at that as a feature. That is a feature.
- 5:53Speaker 4: I don't that's one of.
- 5:54Speaker 7: The most important things.
- 5:56Speaker 1: A seat heater and a steering wheel heater in this
- 6:00Speaker 1: climate is stupid.
- 6:01Speaker 5: I have walked away from a vehicle because, like Riley said, oh,
- 6:07Speaker 5: this one doesn't have a seat heater.
- 6:11Speaker 1: You know, I've got a plug in there though, so
- 6:13Speaker 1: if you want, you could just take a heating path. No,
- 6:18Speaker 1: I don't need a seat heater. I don't need a
- 6:19Speaker 1: steering wheel heater. And to be to be honest to
- 6:22Speaker 1: me and the vehicles that I've had that had the
- 6:24Speaker 1: seat cooler, yeah, it kind of makes me feel like
- 6:28Speaker 1: I wet myself, but I like that.
- 6:31Speaker 5: I'll tell you that I don't like the seat ace.
- 6:33Speaker 5: I don't like the cold seat.
- 6:35Speaker 4: No, Like I'm comfortable.
- 6:36Speaker 7: I don't need that the one I need. Look tell Tell,
- 6:41Speaker 7: explain to Will.
- 6:42Speaker 5: That that he's missing out here, or or explain to
- 6:45Speaker 5: us that we're crazy.
- 6:46Speaker 4: I think you're.
- 6:49Speaker 1: I mean, I've been in vehicles that have like the
- 6:51Speaker 1: massaging seats.
- 6:52Speaker 4: I don't want that stuff.
- 6:54Speaker 5: The only thing I'll say about is is a danger
- 6:57Speaker 5: of the seat heater is.
- 6:59Speaker 7: It gets you too comfortable.
- 7:01Speaker 5: It gets you so comfortable that, like time, you start
- 7:06Speaker 5: getting sleepy, your eyes start to cross on the road
- 7:08Speaker 5: a little bit because you're just But man, when Molly's I.

- 7:57Speaker 5: biggest lie he has, like a heat is I have
- 8:00Speaker 5: Shane text and how does Will know what it feels
- 8:03Speaker 5: like to wet himself?
- 8:04Speaker 7: I believe he said what.

- 8:09Speaker 5: let's be let's be real. Good morning everyone, thanks for
- 8:13Speaker 5: being here. Sixteen twenty ninety four to five wta W
- 8:17Speaker 5: Good morning.
- 8:17Speaker 7: Where the info maniacs.
- 8:18Speaker 5: We're talking about the magic of having a seat heater
- 8:23Speaker 5: on constantly, even in the dead of summer. Will thinks that's.
- 8:29Speaker 1: You call it magic. I call it insanity, but I
- 8:34Speaker 1: get it. Look like my wife during the summertime, she
- 8:37Speaker 1: will turn the AC down to an appalling number. I'll
- 8:42Speaker 1: have the ceiling fan on, oh yeah, on takeoff mode
- 8:46Speaker 1: yeah yeah yeah, and then pile pile blankets on top
- 8:49Speaker 1: of her.
- 8:49Speaker 4: In the bed.
- 8:50Speaker 7: I love the takeoff mode.
- 8:51Speaker 8: That is great.
- 8:52Speaker 4: Take xach.
- 8:53Speaker 5: I want max that's like I want max wind. Yeah,
- 8:56Speaker 5: but I want to also have some heat to balance out.
- 8:59Speaker 4: Yeah, she'll like sleeping cold when she does that.
- 9:02Speaker 5: Yeah, in the same way text messages Allie says, I love, love,
- 9:08Speaker 5: love a seat heater. Okay, not that I would use
- 9:11Speaker 5: it today and feels like one fourteen, but I definitely
- 9:14Speaker 5: use it the summer.
- 9:14Speaker 7: It just feels so good, all right, So there are
- 9:16Speaker 7: limits atam text.
- 9:18Speaker 5: In that the seat heater is rarely used unless it's
- 9:23Speaker 5: cold or I'm.
- 9:24Speaker 7: Having back pains.
- 9:25Speaker 4: I can see it away from it.
- 9:28Speaker 5: To answer your question, everyone in that studio other than
- 9:32Speaker 5: Will is absolutely insane.
- 9:33Speaker 4: I've been saying it forever because scholar.
- 9:36Speaker 5: Worker that goes and works outside a lot, the last
- 9:39Speaker 5: thing he wants to do is come home to a
- 9:42Speaker 5: hot vehicle. I want to know what happened to the
- 9:44Speaker 5: ac event though under the steer.
- 9:46Speaker 1: Yeah, oh there there are a couple of vehicles that
- 9:50Speaker 1: are bringing that back.
- 9:51Speaker 7: That is a great question.
- 9:53Speaker 4: And there are.
- 9:53Speaker 1: Also aftermarket parts that you can get then you create yours.
- 9:59Speaker 4: Never region's air blower.
- 10:02Speaker 5: I remember that I had one in the very first
- 10:05Speaker 5: car that I had. I don't remember when they stopped making.
- 10:07Speaker 5: I'm sure someone would be be smart enough to attract
- 10:10Speaker 5: that data down, but that.
- 10:13Speaker 7: Was a real one.
- 10:14Speaker 4: That was a bonus.
- 10:14Speaker 7: That was a real loss.
- 10:15Speaker 5: For America when we when we lost it because went
- 10:18Speaker 5: max ac on a hot good.
- 10:20Speaker 4: Yeah, that was a beautiful thing.
- 10:21Speaker 1: Now I will say we mentioned the fact that I
- 10:24Speaker 1: don't have bells and whistles on the truck.
- 10:26Speaker 4: Yeah.
- 10:27Speaker 1: The one thing that it's not on the truck that
- 10:29Speaker 1: I wish it had is the remote start.
- 10:32Speaker 4: Oh so you could like, oh it doesn't look you
- 10:34Speaker 4: think starts with a key.
- 10:36Speaker 7: Wow.
- 10:37Speaker 9: Wow.
- 10:38Speaker 1: I'm telling you when I when I say I bought
- 10:40Speaker 1: a truck with no bells and whistles, I got a
- 10:43Speaker 1: truck with no bells and whistles.
- 10:44Speaker 7: Does it have an automatic transmission?
- 10:45Speaker 1: It has an automatic transmission, But if it had been
- 10:48Speaker 1: a manual, it might have appealed to me more.
- 10:50Speaker 7: Well, you're not going to find manual not anymore.
- 10:52Speaker 5: This the other day that only two percent of one
- 10:56Speaker 5: apples are one to two percent, in other words, one
- 11:01Speaker 5: or two out of every one hundred vehicles that roll
- 11:05Speaker 5: off the line.
- 11:07Speaker 7: That's the that's it.
- 11:09Speaker 5: As far as as far as manual transmission, one was
- 11:12Speaker 5: the Mustang.
- 11:12Speaker 7: Mustang has been made a.
- 11:13Speaker 5: Point of saying that we're not gonna fully ghost the
- 11:18Speaker 5: manual transmission.
- 11:19Speaker 1: While creating an electric car. And putting a Mustang badge
- 11:22Speaker 1: on it. But that's other than that.
- 11:25Speaker 5: But like, I get it because how many people, I mean,
- 11:30Speaker 5: I hate to say, how many people know how to
- 11:32Speaker 5: drive one?
- 11:33Speaker 1: My youngest is desperate to learn how to drive a
- 11:36Speaker 1: manual transfer, really she wants, and I'm all for it.
- 11:39Speaker 1: I taught when I was much younger. I had a
- 11:42Speaker 1: good friend whose younger sister was learning to drive, and
- 11:46Speaker 1: UH had nobody to teach her. The vehicle I was
- 11:49Speaker 1: in at the time was a seventy six Chevy half
- 11:52Speaker 1: Ton with a three on the tree. Yeah, and I said,
- 11:55Speaker 1: you know what if I taught her out to drive
- 11:56Speaker 1: on this, she can drive any can anything.
- 11:58Speaker 7: Yeah, there's nothing to stop these days.
- 12:01Speaker 4: It's an anti theft device.
- 12:03Speaker 1: That's true, because nobody the same reason my truck starts
- 12:07Speaker 1: with a key. I asked the sales manager for the place,
- 12:09Speaker 1: I'm like, why do you order him this way? Because
- 12:11Speaker 1: he orders a handful of them that way. He said,
- 12:14Speaker 1: because the kids these days who are thieves don't know
- 12:16Speaker 1: how to steal them. They don't know how to hot
- 12:20Speaker 1: I don't know how to hot wire anymore.
- 12:22Speaker 7: That's brilliant.
- 12:23Speaker 1: So yeah, again, I wish I wish I had the
- 12:27Speaker 1: remote start to cool it down. But that truck has
- 12:30Speaker 1: the best AC system I've ever had in a vehicle.
- 12:33Speaker 7: How long does it take?
- 12:34Speaker 1: Quickly, within a couple of minutes, you can chill that
- 12:37Speaker 1: cab off to the point where you could hang meat
- 12:40Speaker 1: in there.
- 12:40Speaker 7: Genuinely?
- 12:41Speaker 5: Does anyone actually still do you still have a manual
- 12:45Speaker 5: transmission vehicle?
- 12:47Speaker 7: And what is it?
- 12:48Speaker 4: Yeah?
- 12:49Speaker 7: I know there's some. Obviously there's still some out there.
- 12:51Speaker 5: Don't make them do anymore, but are you still driving
- 12:54Speaker 5: one around?
- 12:55Speaker 7: I feel like if.
- 12:55Speaker 5: There's anyone that actually is today, they're probably they're probably
- 13:00Speaker 5: on this show.
- 13:01Speaker 7: They're probably listening.
- 13:02Speaker 4: For sure.
- 13:03Speaker 7: There are a W T A W listen.
- 13:05Speaker 6: We've got good friends standard ones, but they have the
- 13:09Speaker 6: luxury sports cars. And those luxury sports cars only have
- 13:12Speaker 6: standard Because.

- 14:33Speaker 1: I have to order it that way essential or find somebody. No,
- 14:37Speaker 1: I don't think they're more expensive, but they're rare just
- 14:42Speaker 1: because you know, a dealer wants to buy vehicles for
- 14:45Speaker 1: their lotah that are gonna move.
- 14:47Speaker 4: They don't want stuff sitting there for.
- 14:48Speaker 5: It costs some money, right, they have to end up

- 22:17Speaker 7: You you you just can't stand? Do you have one?
- 22:22Speaker 1: I'm pretty limited. I mean, I most of my stuff

- 22:53Speaker 7: And I wouldn't say I like all of them.
- 22:55Speaker 6: I just went with all the stuff I do in
- 22:58Speaker 6: social media now, I use it for like work and stuff.
- 23:02Speaker 6: Other than that, I don't even use it for personal
- 23:03Speaker 6: use anymore.
- 23:04Speaker 7: Like Snapchat.
- 23:05Speaker 6: I use it once a day.
- 23:06Speaker 7: Now I'm getting like, okay.
- 23:08Speaker 4: Okay, I've never been on the snapchat.
- 23:10Speaker 7: LinkedIn.
- 23:11Speaker 4: Yeah.
- 23:12Speaker 1: LinkedIn initially I think was useful and then it became
- 23:17Speaker 1: completely useless.
- 23:19Speaker 5: LinkedIn, in, my opinion, is the worst social media It's
- 23:24Speaker 5: it is the most pointless thing that exists out there today.
- 23:30Speaker 7: Lots of stories about it coming out. Number one.
- 23:33Speaker 5: A study is trying to quantify how many LinkedIn posts
- 23:36Speaker 5: are one hundred percent AI.
- 23:39Speaker 6: It's that's a good point.
- 23:40Speaker 7: Basically, most of Yeah, it iss what they're the.
- 23:43Speaker 4: Scourge of that sort of thing on there.
- 23:45Speaker 5: Seventy percent of the posts on LinkedIn are just something
- 23:51Speaker 5: that the computer spit out to make someone look. That's
- 23:55Speaker 5: the thing is it feels I've never been on a
- 23:58Speaker 5: website that feels more fake then AI than LinkedIn.
- 24:02Speaker 4: I can see it.
- 24:03Speaker 5: Yeah, because no one talks like that, no one acts
- 24:05Speaker 5: like that. No, it is very State of Texas is
- 24:09Speaker 5: looking into them right now. Really because of ghost jobs.
- 24:12Speaker 5: You're you familiar with ghost jobs.
- 24:14Speaker 4: By the title, I can assume what they are, and it's.
- 24:17Speaker 7: Not a real essentially not a real job.
- 24:19Speaker 5: It's either job that's been filled or it's just a
- 24:21Speaker 5: job that they're put a company puts out there to
- 24:24Speaker 5: harvest data mining data mining or get a bank of
- 24:28Speaker 5: applications for down the road and they need them. But
- 24:31Speaker 5: they don't really exist. No one's really getting hired from
- 24:33Speaker 5: any of these.
- 24:34Speaker 4: Jobs, which sucks as a job seeing, which is horrible.
- 24:37Speaker 7: But here's the thing.
- 24:38Speaker 5: LinkedIn would know this, and they would also know that
- 24:42Speaker 5: charging you like fifty bucks a month for like LinkedIn
- 24:46Speaker 5: premium because you're desperate to get a job and they're
- 24:49Speaker 5: telling you, hey, this could help you get a job
- 24:52Speaker 5: is probably a grift at best and probably straight up
- 24:57Speaker 5: illegal at worst.
- 24:58Speaker 4: Yeah. I think it's I mean, I think it's a scourge.
- 25:01Speaker 1: Whether or not our government should get involved, I'm not
- 25:04Speaker 1: certain of. I think you let the market take it down.
- 25:07Speaker 7: Now, that's the the I was actually surprised I saw this.
- 25:11Speaker 5: But they haven't announced action the State of Texas against LinkedIn,
- 25:15Speaker 5: but they are investigating them to see whether crimes are
- 25:18Speaker 5: being committed by them ripping people off for jobs that
- 25:23Speaker 5: don't ever, anyone who's ever looked for a job knows
- 25:25Speaker 5: it is true. Ask someone who's been looking for a job,
- 25:28Speaker 5: how many applications? Oh god, it's generally the people I
- 25:34Speaker 5: talk to, it's like hundreds hundreds of applications.
- 25:37Speaker 6: Really good place to find a job. Though, like TeamWorks,
- 25:41Speaker 6: it's a different kind. It's a different version of LinkedIn.
- 25:43Speaker 6: It's for sports. I've been on a lot. Really you
- 25:46Speaker 6: hear back from people on TeamWorks versus LinkedIn, you don't.
- 25:49Speaker 1: It's a smaller pool, and I can see I can
- 25:52Speaker 1: see why the state is suing LinkedIn. Much like here's
- 25:56Speaker 1: the bottom line. Nobody's going to sue somebody that doesn't
- 25:59Speaker 1: have anything. You're not a target for a lawsuit if
- 26:03Speaker 1: you can't pay it point, if you don't have anything
- 26:06Speaker 1: that that somebody can take from you. So the state
- 26:09Speaker 1: is not going to mess around, uh, spending money to
- 26:13Speaker 1: target somebody who won't at least settle for something bonkers.
- 26:18Speaker 5: Here's a new one, because I guess you could technically
- 26:23Speaker 5: say that like dating sites are social media.
- 26:27Speaker 4: Yeah, technically technically.
- 26:28Speaker 5: Dating sites or social media, which would then open up
- 26:31Speaker 5: a wide range other than LinkedIn of the worst sites
- 26:36Speaker 5: out there for social media. The Hinge guys are coming
- 26:40Speaker 5: out with something new.
- 26:42Speaker 4: You see, I'm so not hip, I don't but.
- 26:44Speaker 6: As Hinge, it's like Tender but better supposedly.
- 26:50Speaker 1: I I'm so grateful I'm not in that game.
- 26:58Speaker 7: I cannot take yeah, need.
- 27:00Speaker 6: Dating apps are fused to and never will, but I
- 27:02Speaker 6: have a lot of friends that do it for fundsies.
- 27:04Speaker 6: Is what they say for fundsies and they go, oh,
- 27:08Speaker 6: they can't. We can't talk about reasons why they do it, just.
- 27:11Speaker 7: To see yeah, yeah I get you.
- 27:13Speaker 5: Hey, look at this Will this is the CEO of Hinge,
- 27:16Speaker 5: by the way, to give you some idea of of
- 27:18Speaker 5: of what.
- 27:19Speaker 4: He looks unhimm this man, Yeah, that.
- 27:22Speaker 1: Is the guy that's that's that wouldn't trust him.
- 27:26Speaker 4: It looks like he's due for court.
- 27:28Speaker 7: A I matchmaker.
- 27:32Speaker 5: No, So what this does is it uses AI to create,
- 27:36Speaker 5: not kidding, a little version of you an ai U,
- 27:41Speaker 5: I don't like this, and then they let ai U
- 27:45Speaker 5: basically go in a pool of.
- 27:47Speaker 11: Everybody else's AI use and then they see which ais
- 27:54Speaker 11: talk to each other, and then they shoot those matches
- 27:59Speaker 11: over to real life you and you can you know
- 28:03Speaker 11: they say this is better than dating.
- 28:05Speaker 1: You just know it's because you never happened to meeting
- 28:08Speaker 1: a nice girl at church.
- 28:10Speaker 5: The computer has proven that you will get along with
- 28:13Speaker 5: this person because they might have a thirty year marriage
- 28:16Speaker 5: in AI. At that point, if that sounds like a
- 28:18Speaker 5: black mirror episode, it was a black mirror episode.
- 28:20Speaker 7: And I'm guessing that's where they got the idea.
- 28:22Speaker 1: No, you don't take fictional ideas that are evil and
- 28:25Speaker 1: trying to put them out there.
- 28:27Speaker 4: This makes no sense to me.
- 28:29Speaker 5: Happened to meeting a nice girl at ages? What happened
- 28:34Speaker 5: to meeting at the agh at a bar a ball?
- 28:38Speaker 4: I remember that I met my wife at a bar
- 28:42Speaker 4: at a bar.
- 28:42Speaker 7: Yeah, but most people back in the day did this.
- 28:45Speaker 5: You just you just you bump into who you bump into,
- 28:47Speaker 5: and you do the the radical thing.
- 28:49Speaker 4: Of just talking to people.
- 28:51Speaker 5: You talk to them, wasn't Maybe you know, you get
- 28:55Speaker 5: a kind of a connection, and then maybe you get
- 28:57Speaker 5: a number, and then you text back and.
- 28:59Speaker 1: There's some flirtation involved, there's some back and forth communications.
- 29:03Speaker 1: You figure out if you want to spend some time together,
- 29:06Speaker 1: don't make.
- 29:06Speaker 7: An AI clone of them and send it into the internet.
- 29:10Speaker 6: No better than these people that have AI boyfriends and girlfriends.
- 29:14Speaker 4: Okay, I'll give you that, but it's not much better.
- 29:19Speaker 7: We're taking AI to a whole new extreme.
- 29:22Speaker 4: I need a shower stop.
- 29:24Speaker 5: This is another thing too. If you noticed the backlash
- 29:26Speaker 5: which is starting alley people. The Eastern Chronicle had another
- 29:28Speaker 5: piece on this too, because several people done It's like, okay,
- 29:30Speaker 5: it's gone too far, Like it's for whatever reason, it's
- 29:33Speaker 5: got to the poor people are getting actively angry when
- 29:35Speaker 5: they see AI content.
- 29:37Speaker 7: They see it, Yes, it makes them angry.
- 29:39Speaker 1: You can't get away from it. AI is I mean okay,
- 29:43Speaker 1: AI videos on social media, whatever like that, AI dating,
- 29:47Speaker 1: whatever like that. AI is built in not only to
- 29:50Speaker 1: every app that you're using on your phone for the
- 29:52Speaker 1: most part, but also to your hardware in your phone.
- 29:55Speaker 1: You cannot get totally away from the AI. It's just
- 29:59Speaker 1: gonna be there.
- 30:00Speaker 6: Okay, So that's really funny to ask you.
- 30:02Speaker 7: Yes, you have like TikTok right that way, I'm on tick.
- 30:06Speaker 7: I don't really post. Have you ever or even Facebook?
- 30:09Speaker 6: Have you ever seen those things called like a real
- 30:10Speaker 6: short or these these little like movie things that actors
- 30:14Speaker 6: are trying to get their starts in.
- 30:16Speaker 1: Yeah, I've become aware of it. I haven't clicked on that.
- 30:19Speaker 6: Well, they're making AI versions of these real shorts. They're alarming.
- 30:26Speaker 4: These are mean, These are AI unreal is real.
- 30:30Speaker 5: This is what the computer thinks that it's supposed to
- 30:34Speaker 5: do to create.
- 30:36Speaker 6: So I went down this rabble because I was like
- 30:38Speaker 6: looking through all of it, because I I don't know
- 30:41Speaker 6: who I was talking to. I was talking to one
- 30:42Speaker 6: of my friends about it, and she goes, I fail
- 30:43Speaker 6: down this AI rabbit hole of real shorts, and these
- 30:46Speaker 6: stories are so interesting talking about and.
- 30:49Speaker 5: They just go, They just go wherever because it's it's the.
- 30:53Speaker 6: Same story, copy and pasted, just a different like one
- 30:56Speaker 6: of them, like one of them was Mermaids and the
- 30:58Speaker 6: other one.
- 30:58Speaker 7: Was like vampire.
- 31:00Speaker 6: But it's the same story.
- 31:01Speaker 7: Just copy and paste it.
- 31:02Speaker 5: And there's the other thing. They're all dating each other,
- 31:04Speaker 5: all those AI bots, they're all just debts.
- 31:06Speaker 7: It's so weird, over overlooked dot whatever it is. Good night.
- 31:11Speaker 7: Well yeah, that's uh.
- 31:13Speaker 4: You can't trust the AI. You can't trust it. It's
- 31:16Speaker 4: gonna come back and buy this.

- 33:34Speaker 6: his leadership, and the expectations.
- 33:36Speaker 8: I want him to know the standard, but I don't
- 33:38Speaker 8: want it to come from me. I want it to
- 33:39Speaker 8: come from the players. I want them to say, hey man,
- 33:42Speaker 8: look that's not how we're going to do that. Here. Now,
- 33:44Speaker 8: we're going to have a notepad, we're going to take notes,
- 33:46Speaker 8: We're going to have a meeting every day. Coach Mart's
- 33:48Speaker 8: going to talk to the team in some setting and
- 33:50Speaker 8: teach something. And then every coach is I grew up
- 33:54Speaker 8: with two educators in my home. So I'm big on
- 33:56Speaker 8: when we go into a meeting room, we're trying to
- 33:58Speaker 8: get interaction. Don't want to sit there and just talk
- 34:01Speaker 8: and have no interaction. So how do we generate ownership
- 34:04Speaker 8: from the players, whether they're a portal guy coming in
- 34:07Speaker 8: as a senior or a true freshman coming in who's
- 34:09Speaker 8: overwhelmed by this wealth of information and intensity that he's
- 34:13Speaker 8: got to raise the standard to get to real quick
- 34:15Speaker 8: to be able to help us. And I like that,
- 34:17Speaker 8: you know, I like that now, and I learned it
- 34:18Speaker 8: from Nick. You know it's fourth and one.
- 34:19Speaker 4: You think my place is fourth and one.

- 34:47Speaker 6: his four hits as the Rangers beat the Chicago White
- 34:50Speaker 6: Sox ten to zero. Rangers manager Skip Schumacher talked about
- 34:54Speaker 6: Rockers performance.
- 34:56Speaker 12: Got the extra rest obviously helped him. He was throwing
- 34:58Speaker 12: ninety five miles an hour plus, fastball command was great,
- 35:03Speaker 12: The slider with rate was probably one of his best
- 35:07Speaker 12: of the year, mixing some changeups this new split that
- 35:10Speaker 12: he's kind of working on. So yeah, I mean it
- 35:14Speaker 12: was a left handed lineup two and so he's still
- 35:17Speaker 12: dominated with with the fastball slider combo with some cutters
- 35:21Speaker 12: in on on some lefties, so limited the walks. Obviously
- 35:24Speaker 12: not many hits, So just outstanding job by rock.
