  Speaker 4: of booze somewhere so they don't drink at all.
• 1:12
  Speaker 3: Yeah, hide a bottle of Booze. I got one. I

  Speaker 3: think I got a tainted bottle of booze.
• 1:16
  Speaker 5: Oh yeah, that's rough.

  Speaker 2: And it was like a really expensive brand. But I've

  Speaker 2: had a few SIPs.
• 1:23
  Speaker 5: Of it and it ain't going well.

  Speaker 2: I mean, it's not making me sick, but there's something

  Speaker 2: off about it.
• 1:29
  Speaker 3: So I don't know.
• 1:31
  Speaker 2: I'm gonna throw it away.

  Speaker 2: next play Monday versus Belgium right here in Seattle at
• 2:07
  Speaker 2: five o'clock. Of course, we will be without Balligan, who
• 2:10
  Speaker 2: is arguably our best player. He's in the conversation. He
• 2:15
  Speaker 2: was given a red cart yesterday and that means he
• 2:19
  Speaker 2: can't play on Monday, and there is no appeal process.
• 2:23
  Speaker 2: Something that we'll ask Pete Fewing about here and now
• 2:26
  Speaker 2: a minute and.
• 2:26
  Speaker 3: A half from now.
• 2:28
  Speaker 2: Other results from yesterday, England rallied to advance. Also Belgium
• 2:32
  Speaker 2: rallied to advance yesterday. Today and this is different than
• 2:37
  Speaker 2: what I said at six o'clock.
• 2:38
  Speaker 3: I got it wrong.
• 2:39
  Speaker 2: We corrected it at six point thirty. But I'll get
• 2:42
  Speaker 2: it right this time. Spain Austria. Today you've got Portugal
• 2:47
  Speaker 2: and Ghana, and you've got Switzerland and Algeria.
• 2:50
  Speaker 3: It's not Ghana. I got it wrong again. Damn it.
• 2:55
  Speaker 2: What did I write out Croatia? It's not Ghana. Why
• 2:57
  Speaker 2: did I write down Gonzerland Aer? Yes, that's got that
• 3:03
  Speaker 2: one right. Portugal Croatia is what I got wrong. So
• 3:06
  Speaker 2: Portugal Croatia is also going to happen here today. Some
• 3:11
  Speaker 2: other news, NBA Jalen Brown has been traded from the
• 3:14
  Speaker 2: Boston Celtics to the Philadelphia seventy six or something. We'll
• 3:18
  Speaker 2: talk about today at eight and nine o'clock. Storm Mercury
• 3:21
  Speaker 2: tonight at seven o'clock. Wimbledon continues through the holiday weekend.
• 3:25
  Speaker 2: Nathan's Hot Dog eating contest tomorrow as well where Joey
• 3:28
  Speaker 2: Chestnut is back to prove he's one of the greatest.
• 3:32
  Speaker 3: Athletes of all time.
• 3:35
  Speaker 2: I haven't gotten one laugh for that today. Also, Mariners
• 3:39
  Speaker 2: back in action tonight against the Angels. Bryce Miller versus
• 3:42
  Speaker 2: Walbert Urena is your pitching matchup six forty. They didn't
• 3:46
  Speaker 2: play last night because of World Cup. Tip of the
• 3:49
  Speaker 2: cap to the World Cup. So rarely do you see
• 3:51
  Speaker 2: a series interrupted this way. But they'll be back at it,
• 3:55
  Speaker 2: same two teams tonight, not even a day game on
• 3:58
  Speaker 2: a Thursday. Tonight, first pitch and then the Toronto Blue
• 4:02
  Speaker 2: Jays make their way into town Friday, Saturday and Sunday.
• 4:06
  Speaker 2: All right, those are your headlines, brought to you by
• 4:09
  Speaker 2: Frost Brewed. Course, like choose Chill, It's now time to
• 4:13
  Speaker 2: chat with a local legend farmer, the pride of Burian Washington.
• 4:19
  Speaker 2: He's a player, he was a co cheer in Seattle
• 4:23
  Speaker 2: and of course a broadcaster on the Seattle Sounders broadcast
• 4:26
  Speaker 2: crew for years and he's been a big part of
• 4:29
  Speaker 2: our World Cup coverage show. We're leaning into the knowledge
• 4:32
  Speaker 2: of Pete Fewing quite a bit here at the station
• 4:35
  Speaker 2: throughout this past month, and we're going to do it
• 4:38
  Speaker 2: right now on Chuck and Buck.
• 4:40
  Speaker 3: Hi, Pete, how are.
• 4:41
  Speaker 6: You, Chuck? Good morning? Thank you for the shout out
• 4:45
  Speaker 6: for Burian.
• 4:45
  Speaker 2: There you go that. Yeah, tell me give me a
• 4:48
  Speaker 2: Burian memory as a child. Fourth of July Burian memory
• 4:53
  Speaker 2: from Pete Hewing.
• 4:55
  Speaker 6: Oh, Burian Parade for sure, go into that. I think
• 4:59
  Speaker 6: we might have been in that parade when we were
• 5:01
  Speaker 6: about eight seven or eight years old with the high
• 5:05
  Speaker 6: Line Eagles, our youth soccer team turned into the Pandam Eagles,
• 5:08
  Speaker 6: and I vowed with I was a high Line high
• 5:12
  Speaker 6: school pirate, eighty one state champs. We'll throw that in there.
• 5:17
  Speaker 6: And Tyler Geving also was a Highline pirate. Nate Dallacon
• 5:21
  Speaker 6: is the current coach at Seattle University a Highland pirate,
• 5:24
  Speaker 6: and Tyler coach basketball at Seattle. You with an assistant
• 5:29
  Speaker 6: was the head coach at University of Portland, And it
• 5:32
  Speaker 6: was our goal to ride in the back of an
• 5:36
  Speaker 6: old convertible Mercedes Benz in the Burian Parade at some
• 5:39
  Speaker 6: point and we'd make our own signs pretty selfless, selfless
• 5:43
  Speaker 6: plug for the Pirates and Burie guys. So I just
• 5:47
  Speaker 6: saw Kenny Maine at one of the games. I was
• 5:50
  Speaker 6: with coach Schmitzer and we were kind of doing the
• 5:53
  Speaker 6: tour of the suites, and I walked in and said,
• 5:56
  Speaker 6: Kenny Pte Fewing Burian and Brian Schmittzer had coached the
• 6:00
  Speaker 6: Sounders appointed him, and he said, Brian Schmeitzer, Lake City.
• 6:03
  Speaker 6: And Kenny Maine said, Kenny Maine, Kent, And that's how
• 6:06
  Speaker 6: the conversation started. So three of the State of Washington's
• 6:10
  Speaker 6: finest small communities. Forget Laurelhurst, Hunts Point, you know all
• 6:15
  Speaker 6: those great neighborhoods Bury and Kent, Lake City. That's where
• 6:20
  Speaker 6: it's at.
• 6:20
  Speaker 2: That's the magic right there. There's the magic truck that
• 6:23
  Speaker 2: the magic tryad right there. All right, well, let's it's
• 6:27
  Speaker 2: great to have you on the show, and let's dive
• 6:30
  Speaker 2: into last night, a two zero, huge win for Team
• 6:34
  Speaker 2: USA over Bosnia. And before we get into red card controversy,
• 6:38
  Speaker 2: let's just talk about how the team played. In your opinion,
• 6:42
  Speaker 2: what was the difference last night between Team USA and
• 6:46
  Speaker 2: Team Bosnia.
• 6:49
  Speaker 6: It's a great question. We finished our chances. Balagan got
• 6:53
  Speaker 6: a ball that was a bit misplayed. He turned, cut
• 6:56
  Speaker 6: it to his left and slatted it and put it
• 6:58
  Speaker 6: in the back of the net, and and then Tilman
• 7:01
  Speaker 6: had a phenomenal free kick in the second half when
• 7:05
  Speaker 6: we were down a man. Baligan had been ejected at
• 7:08
  Speaker 6: that point in the sixty fourth minute, and so Tilman
• 7:12
  Speaker 6: hits a fantastic shot. The goalkeeper hoped that the wall
• 7:16
  Speaker 6: would cover the near post, he would take the back post.
• 7:19
  Speaker 6: Tilman had a knuckler up and over and back down
• 7:22
  Speaker 6: and was a fantastic goal. So honestly, chuck. At the
• 7:25
  Speaker 6: end of the day, it came down to two quality executions.
• 7:30
  Speaker 6: This team has some fantastic talent, right so Bosnia they
• 7:36
  Speaker 6: have a kid on the bench named Meek and he's
• 7:39
  Speaker 6: there leading goal score with two goals. Didn't start in
• 7:42
  Speaker 6: the game, which I'm always kind of curious about. Then
• 7:44
  Speaker 6: came into the game, oh gosh, maybe the eighty fourth minute,
• 7:47
  Speaker 6: I'm thinking, and hit one that knuckled and curled out
• 7:53
  Speaker 6: and just missed the post to the far post from
• 7:55
  Speaker 6: about twenty two yards out, a little wide right. And
• 8:00
  Speaker 6: then the exact same but on the other side. He
• 8:02
  Speaker 6: was on the right side of the goal and he
• 8:04
  Speaker 6: hit it maybe maybe a foot wide left. So if
• 8:08
  Speaker 6: you're boiling it down, we executed. They didn't execute. It
• 8:11
  Speaker 6: was a hard fought battle. There was a little extra
• 8:16
  Speaker 6: late challenges and you have to expect that now in
• 8:20
  Speaker 6: the round of thirty two and round of sixteen won't
• 8:23
  Speaker 6: be any different. There these are teams that want to
• 8:27
  Speaker 6: win desperately and the physical part and dealing with the
• 8:30
  Speaker 6: emotion that I thought the US did a fantastic job
• 8:32
  Speaker 6: of not getting caught up in some of the antics.
• 8:35
  Speaker 6: So which I was at the Senegal game earlier in
• 8:38
  Speaker 6: the day and Senegal was up to nothing, playing great,
• 8:42
  Speaker 6: beating Belgium, and then Synegal started to get into the
• 8:46
  Speaker 6: antics in Belgium. The Synegal coach said, it's not an
• 8:50
  Speaker 6: eighty five minute game, it's a ninety minute plus stoppage
• 8:53
  Speaker 6: and Belgium game in late with two goals and then
• 8:57
  Speaker 6: one around penalty kicks. So teams that stay focused, the
• 9:00
  Speaker 6: teams that have some quality, meaning the final pass, the
• 9:04
  Speaker 6: final cross, and the final shot are the ones moving forward.
• 9:09
  Speaker 6: You know, it's simple, but it's very difficult.
• 9:13
  Speaker 2: What does it say about Team Ussay's defense and also
• 9:17
  Speaker 2: Poachattino's adjustments. One, you do lose a man when you're
• 9:22
  Speaker 2: playing a man down for as long as team USA
• 9:25
  Speaker 2: was playing last night.
• 9:27
  Speaker 6: Yeah. One, the unity in this team is fantastic. The
• 9:31
  Speaker 6: maturity is equal to that. Many many of these guys
• 9:36
  Speaker 6: in this lineup one the twenty two team, but they
• 9:38
  Speaker 6: were four years younger and so they've grown quite a bit.
• 9:41
  Speaker 6: Back then, they were working their ways into their European clubs,
• 9:46
  Speaker 6: coming off the bench and becoming starters. Now most of
• 9:49
  Speaker 6: them are wont to fight starters. So we're a much
• 9:52
  Speaker 6: more mature team than we were four years ago and seasoned, driven,
• 9:57
  Speaker 6: more driven. There's been a lot of criticism these guys
• 10:00
  Speaker 6: can't get it done with all the talent and you know,
• 10:03
  Speaker 6: high salaries that they're getting, and so they're answering the
• 10:06
  Speaker 6: bell that. The water breaks have been kind of an
• 10:09
  Speaker 6: interesting twist to this World Cup, and because it's basically
• 10:15
  Speaker 6: you're now playing four quarters because coaches get a chance
• 10:19
  Speaker 6: to regroup. So so Belligun's red card came right before
• 10:23
  Speaker 6: the second half water break, and Pochatino took no time
• 10:29
  Speaker 6: in giving them directives. So they went from and he's
• 10:33
  Speaker 6: played three at the back and then five in the midfield,
• 10:37
  Speaker 6: kind of stacked on top of each other, and then
• 10:39
  Speaker 6: one up front. And this one he went back to
• 10:42
  Speaker 6: the Paraguay lineup, which was a four to two, three
• 10:45
  Speaker 6: to one. But when you lose a player, you're you're
• 10:48
  Speaker 6: down to ten men. So they went basically a low
• 10:51
  Speaker 6: block of four. It was a four to four to one,
• 10:54
  Speaker 6: and then oftentimes the one that was trying to hold
• 10:58
  Speaker 6: up the ball up higher up the field just slid
• 11:00
  Speaker 6: back in and then it became a five to four,
• 11:03
  Speaker 6: five to four, that's it. And then sometimes it was
• 11:07
  Speaker 6: a four or five and they were just hanging on.
• 11:08
  Speaker 6: They did a fantastic job of clearing balls away from
• 11:12
  Speaker 6: dangerous spaces. In the two friendlies before the World Cup
• 11:17
  Speaker 6: started with Germany and Senegal, we had a tough time
• 11:20
  Speaker 6: getting out of pressure and it cost us I think
• 11:24
  Speaker 6: three goals in total in those two games. They did
• 11:27
  Speaker 6: much better they did if you look at some of
• 11:29
  Speaker 6: the play out of the back, they did so well
• 11:34
  Speaker 6: playing in that under that pressure. Our captain Kim Reims,
• 11:37
  Speaker 6: you know, every keeps saying he's thirty eight, Is he
• 11:40
  Speaker 6: too old? He was exceptional last night. So yeah, but
• 11:44
  Speaker 6: Youtino just said, hey, we're you know, they never played
• 11:47
  Speaker 6: to not lose, and I think that's really important when
• 11:51
  Speaker 6: you play to not lose. I think Senegal is a
• 11:53
  Speaker 6: victim of that. When you play to not lose, you
• 11:57
  Speaker 6: it can come back to bite you. I had about
• 12:00
  Speaker 6: four of my former players text me last night about
• 12:04
  Speaker 6: and they said all they said was soccer gods. And
• 12:07
  Speaker 6: I'm a believer in the soccer guys, and if you
• 12:10
  Speaker 6: do things right, it's a small g, it's not a
• 12:13
  Speaker 6: big g. The soccer gods will reward you. And just
• 12:18
  Speaker 6: to clarify it, they come from a Jesuit school, so
• 12:21
  Speaker 6: we don't want to get hot water with the Jesuits.
• 12:24
  Speaker 6: But so the US did really well to just stay composed,
• 12:29
  Speaker 6: not get caught up in the antics, and then really
• 12:33
  Speaker 6: play out of top pressure and went in doubt just
• 12:36
  Speaker 6: send it forward untill you know, kind of ice the
• 12:38
  Speaker 6: puck a little bit. So yeah, it was a great win,
• 12:41
  Speaker 6: great win for the US.
• 12:42
  Speaker 2: Pete Fewing is with us lending his expertise toward last
• 12:47
  Speaker 2: night's to nothing win over Bosnia for the team USA
• 12:51
  Speaker 2: to advance to Monday's round of sixteen, which.
• 12:55
  Speaker 3: We will get to here in a moment.
• 12:56
  Speaker 2: Let's talk about the controversy. I think I can speak
• 13:01
  Speaker 2: on behalf of people who aren't die hard soccer fans
• 13:05
  Speaker 2: in America that have obviously gotten into the World Cup
• 13:09
  Speaker 2: and the US has run and they're outraged over and
• 13:13
  Speaker 2: can't make sense of why Baligan would be taken out
• 13:16
  Speaker 2: of the game and why he wouldn't be available for Monday.
• 13:21
  Speaker 2: So why what? What is the explanation? Do you share
• 13:26
  Speaker 2: the same outrage as somebody that is obviously an expert
• 13:31
  Speaker 2: at this sport. Do you share the same outrage or
• 13:34
  Speaker 2: do you see why Balligan's not going to be available
• 13:38
  Speaker 2: on Monday?
• 13:40
  Speaker 6: Yeah? I see closer to though, I see why. Here's
• 13:43
  Speaker 6: Klaus was a referee, and I thought he did just
• 13:47
  Speaker 6: to be blunt. I thought he was The referees have
• 13:49
  Speaker 6: been phenomenal. I think they've been exceptional in all the games,
• 13:52
  Speaker 6: and it's that's been in the commentary of the announcers
• 13:56
  Speaker 6: quite a bit, just how impressive they've been. I thought
• 13:59
  Speaker 6: House did this one, and there was a couple of
• 14:06
  Speaker 6: times Pulisic was Pulisic was pulled down from behind and
• 14:11
  Speaker 6: there was no yellow card and he was definitely advancing
• 14:13
  Speaker 6: and it was sort of surprising, and so that kind
• 14:15
  Speaker 6: of gave the green light for Bosney to continue to
• 14:18
  Speaker 6: fowl with a little extra and there was a lot
• 14:21
  Speaker 6: of arms pulling jerseys back, and those those are simple, easy,
• 14:26
  Speaker 6: clear cut yellow card. Knock it off. That's the message
• 14:29
  Speaker 6: you sent. None of those messages were sent. So Ballygan
• 14:33
  Speaker 6: was the first card of the game, and it was
• 14:36
  Speaker 6: a straight red and he definitely got him. I mean,
• 14:40
  Speaker 6: it looked you and I don't walk away from that tackle.
• 14:45
  Speaker 6: A twenty two year old walks away because they've got
• 14:47
  Speaker 6: rubber in their ankles, you know. But it was definitely
• 14:51
  Speaker 6: a hard, bad foul. But where the gray area comes
• 14:57
  Speaker 6: in is there was no intent. Bellagun is a big guy.
• 15:01
  Speaker 6: His body momentum just carried him through it. I could
• 15:05
  Speaker 6: see that if they gave a yellow card, Bosnia Herzegovina
• 15:11
  Speaker 6: would be upset that he didn't get the red. But
• 15:14
  Speaker 6: I could also see him saying, hey, the intent wasn't there.
• 15:16
  Speaker 6: It wasn't studs up going over the top of the ball,
• 15:20
  Speaker 6: it wasn't blatant. It was body momentum carrying it through.
• 15:25
  Speaker 6: And you know, sometimes you look the great referees go
• 15:29
  Speaker 6: I don't want to. This guy's the leading goal scorer
• 15:31
  Speaker 6: for the US. He got two against Paraguay and one
• 15:33
  Speaker 6: last night, and so now he's got three and now
• 15:36
  Speaker 6: I'm taking him out of the biggest game in US
• 15:39
  Speaker 6: soccer's most recent history. So harsh is the word I
• 15:43
  Speaker 6: would use. I can see why he did it. It
• 15:45
  Speaker 6: was definitely a bad foul, but the intent wasn't malicious,
• 15:49
  Speaker 6: So that's you know. I had a lot of people
• 15:52
  Speaker 6: texting me, can they appeal it? They can, but I
• 15:55
  Speaker 6: don't think they're going to get it. I think they're
• 15:56
  Speaker 6: going to have to play this one without Ballagun and
• 16:00
  Speaker 6: that's really unfortunate.
• 16:02
  Speaker 3: How's that going to affect money?
• 16:04
  Speaker 4: What?
• 16:04
  Speaker 3: What does that?
• 16:05
  Speaker 2: How does that affect the team's chances against Belgium?
• 16:09
  Speaker 6: Well, it does, It affects them. Beligum is a big body,
• 16:11
  Speaker 6: and he can play with his back to the goal
• 16:13
  Speaker 6: and he can posed up, he could get through the box.
• 16:16
  Speaker 6: Obviously a very very good finisher and good in the air,
• 16:20
  Speaker 6: good with both feet, especially as left foot composed. Uh,
• 16:24
  Speaker 6: Peppy might be the guy or Wheya, but both of
• 16:27
  Speaker 6: those guys are a little more slight and they don't
• 16:31
  Speaker 6: play as well with their back to the goal. They've
• 16:33
  Speaker 6: got to be running at at players, at defenders. So
• 16:37
  Speaker 6: I think it changes a little bit. It could be
• 16:41
  Speaker 6: that they go to two forwards to try to get
• 16:44
  Speaker 6: a little bit more help up front so that somebody
• 16:48
  Speaker 6: can turn and face, but that would be going to
• 16:51
  Speaker 6: three at the back. Belgium is a big, strong, physical team.
• 16:55
  Speaker 6: They're are a little older in some areas. When they
• 16:59
  Speaker 6: took their older guys to Brunna off they and Thecaku's
• 17:05
  Speaker 6: holy cow, he's just lights out, blazing speed. So I
• 17:08
  Speaker 6: think it changes our style of play. Poschatino is very
• 17:12
  Speaker 6: good at adjusting. Like I said, you know we have
• 17:16
  Speaker 6: When we lost Christian Poli sick, we went to three
• 17:20
  Speaker 6: at the back and then two up front. So he'll
• 17:24
  Speaker 6: definitely make adjustments. He's got what is today? You know,
• 17:27
  Speaker 6: it's funny, Chuck. Yesterday I said, what's today? Saturday? And
• 17:31
  Speaker 6: they said, I know, you idiot, It's Wednesday. So many
• 17:37
  Speaker 6: games and so many Yeah, yeah, you know. I'm in
• 17:41
  Speaker 6: your studios. You're in that cave and you come out
• 17:43
  Speaker 6: and you look and you go, wow, look at Elliott Bay.
• 17:45
  Speaker 6: How beautiful. Okay, go back into the room the windows
• 17:48
  Speaker 6: for another ten. We did four games two Saturdays ago,
• 17:51
  Speaker 6: and I'm not kidding. I Brad Evans and I were
• 17:54
  Speaker 6: on with Jackson Feltz and Brad asked me a question.
• 17:58
  Speaker 6: And it was the end I think it was after
• 18:01
  Speaker 6: the fourth game postgame show, and Brad asked me a question.
• 18:04
  Speaker 6: I have no idea what I said. And Brad didn't
• 18:07
  Speaker 6: take his headset off. He just sat there in the
• 18:10
  Speaker 6: commercial and I know what he was thinking. He was like,
• 18:13
  Speaker 6: that was the dumast answer I've ever heard in my life.
• 18:15
  Speaker 6: So so anyway, yeah, well they've got enough time to recover.
• 18:20
  Speaker 6: Here's the funny thing. Belgium has been training at the
• 18:22
  Speaker 6: Sounders and Brian Fencer is great. So it was Adrian
• 18:27
  Speaker 6: Hanauur and I'm thinking, well, let's go Boston Celtics and
• 18:30
  Speaker 6: just start pumping the heat up in the locker room
• 18:32
  Speaker 6: and making the water bad, and let's what can we do?
• 18:36
  Speaker 6: What can we do to ice Belgium a little bit? Hey, sorry,
• 18:40
  Speaker 6: we're mowing today. You guys can't train? Yeah, sorry about that.
• 18:43
  Speaker 6: I go use the turf over there. We're gonna we're
• 18:45
  Speaker 6: gonna put you out, you know, on a centric field
• 18:47
  Speaker 6: or something like that. All right, well let me well, yeah,
• 18:51
  Speaker 6: he's got time to change the topics.
• 18:52
  Speaker 3: Yeah, well, let me close with this.
• 18:55
  Speaker 2: If the US wins Monday and advances to the eight
• 18:59
  Speaker 2: How will that match your enthusiasm that day you learned
• 19:03
  Speaker 2: that you were going to get to throw taffy out
• 19:05
  Speaker 2: of the back of a convertible at the ury and
• 19:09
  Speaker 2: fourth of July Fair. I mean, how will those two
• 19:12
  Speaker 2: experiences compare?
• 19:15
  Speaker 6: Yeah, well, it'll be close for sure, But I'm going
• 19:19
  Speaker 6: to give the nod. I'm going to give the nod
• 19:22
  Speaker 6: to the US that. Yeah. I've been to some World
• 19:28
  Speaker 6: Cup games in my younger days ninety four. It's funny.
• 19:32
  Speaker 6: We were in California and much younger ninety fours a
• 19:35
  Speaker 6: long time ago, and I remember afterwards a game broke
• 19:39
  Speaker 6: out in the parking lot and it was an international game.
• 19:42
  Speaker 6: There's probably thirty of us playing, and it was men
• 19:44
  Speaker 6: and women and people in jeans and flip flops. It
• 19:47
  Speaker 6: was super fun. And the police officers were all around
• 19:50
  Speaker 6: like they are in Seattle, and and I did have
• 19:53
  Speaker 6: a Budweiser and I just walked up to one of
• 19:55
  Speaker 6: the officers at the officers you mind holding this, And
• 19:57
  Speaker 6: within about five minutes, every officer had two beers in
• 20:00
  Speaker 6: each hand, and then and then he had they had
• 20:02
  Speaker 6: beers pinned between their form and their body. While we
• 20:06
  Speaker 6: were playing. They were our water, our water, guys, and
• 20:09
  Speaker 6: uh and so of these World Cups are tremendous. They
• 20:13
  Speaker 6: are a tonic for the world. They bring everybody together.
• 20:17
  Speaker 6: And so if they you and I think the US
• 20:19
  Speaker 6: we're hearing this a lot in the media that that
• 20:22
  Speaker 6: people from all around the world are saying these Americans
• 20:24
  Speaker 6: are nice people. And I love it. And and if
• 20:27
  Speaker 6: somebody's wearing I have no I'm a friendly guy. And
• 20:30
  Speaker 6: and uh, if someone's wearing any kind of jersey, I'm
• 20:34
  Speaker 6: happy to high five them, start a conversation with him.
• 20:37
  Speaker 6: And I walked by a woman last night and I've
• 20:39
  Speaker 6: got my US top on and sweatshirt and she's got
• 20:42
  Speaker 6: an England top and I said, hey, congratulations on your wind.
• 20:45
  Speaker 6: My mom's from Manchester. And she said, well, thank you
• 20:48
  Speaker 6: very much. That's very nice. I said, enjoy our country.
• 20:51
  Speaker 6: So anyway, it's been great. So if the US advances
• 20:54
  Speaker 6: Holy Cow, it's you know, Pochatina loves the movie Miracle
• 20:57
  Speaker 6: and Ice and he is uh continuing to write that
• 21:01
  Speaker 6: script in the soccer versions. It's pretty fun, awesome stuff.
• 21:04
  Speaker 2: Thanks.
• 21:06
  Speaker 6: Yeah, it's gonna surpass Taffy by double at least.
• 21:09
  Speaker 3: Okay, yeah, yeah, exactly, at least by double. All right, Well, hey,
• 21:15
  Speaker 3: great to have you on. We appreciate it. We'll bug
• 21:17
  Speaker 3: you again soon.
• 21:18
  Speaker 6: All right, that sounds great. Thanks for having me on.
• 21:21
  Speaker 2: I have a great day, all right, Pete for joining
• 21:23
  Speaker 2: us right here on Chucking Buck in the Morning, breaking
• 21:26
  Speaker 2: it down for you. Jackson Feltz will be with us
• 21:28
  Speaker 2: a little later on in the show at nine thirty.
• 21:31
  Speaker 2: Coming out next on our radio program, We've got your
• 21:34
  Speaker 2: ABC's of the MS. You didn't think we're gonna forget
• 21:37
  Speaker 2: Sports Radio ninety three point three kJ R f M
• 21:40
  Speaker 2: figuring out math and stats to make a point, enhance
• 21:45
  Speaker 2: a point, whatever the case may be. And then after
• 21:49
  Speaker 2: like a half hour of it, you realize, oh, there's
• 21:53
  Speaker 2: probably a website that has done all of this for me. Yes,
• 21:58
  Speaker 2: which just happened.
• 21:59
  Speaker 3: So here we go.
• 22:00
  Speaker 2: It's time for the ABCS of the MS. We'll get
• 22:04
  Speaker 2: to all of that research coming up at.
• 22:06
  Speaker 3: Jay how about that.
• 22:08
  Speaker 2: But we're gonna start with I, and I, unfortunately is
• 22:11
  Speaker 2: for incompetent and that's just where I'm at right now
• 22:14
  Speaker 2: with Dan Wilson and his bullpen decisions. Even in the
• 22:18
  Speaker 2: victories the last couple of days, I've ranted when we
• 22:21
  Speaker 2: probably should have been celebrating the pitching the last couple
• 22:25
  Speaker 2: of victories against the Angels. I still had a problem
• 22:28
  Speaker 2: with the way Dan Wilson used his bullpen, even the
• 22:31
  Speaker 2: day that George Kirby went eight innings and made it
• 22:34
  Speaker 2: as easy as could be. I think he made the
• 22:36
  Speaker 2: wrong choice. So I just don't think he's gonna get this.
• 22:40
  Speaker 2: And I don't think that anybody's going to interfere, because
• 22:45
  Speaker 2: I think Ashley at this point somebody would have already
• 22:48
  Speaker 2: done it if they somebody in the organization was having
• 22:50
  Speaker 2: as big a problem. If I'm running the organization, dan
• 22:54
  Speaker 2: Wilson's either not making those decisions or he is going
• 22:56
  Speaker 2: to know exactly how I.
• 22:58
  Speaker 3: Want it done. Right.
• 22:59
  Speaker 2: There's an actation that Jerry and is pulling all the
• 23:03
  Speaker 2: strings on everything and makes every single decision. I've asked
• 23:07
  Speaker 2: Dan Wilson, Justin Hollander and Jerry Depoto to their face,
• 23:09
  Speaker 2: and they say that could not be further from the truth.
• 23:12
  Speaker 2: And so I don't know what else research I need
• 23:15
  Speaker 2: to do from that perspective. I but if I was
• 23:19
  Speaker 2: general manager, if or president, and I wasn't making those decisions, boy,
• 23:25
  Speaker 2: I'd sure be having some sit downs on how I
• 23:27
  Speaker 2: want it done going forward. I can't imagine anybody.
• 23:29
  Speaker 5: Is happy with I wouldn't think so.
• 23:32
  Speaker 2: With the bullpen decisions that have been made by Dan
• 23:35
  Speaker 2: here recently, throughout this season and maybe going all the
• 23:38
  Speaker 2: way back to when he took over as manager. I
• 23:40
  Speaker 2: know he brings a lot of great things to the table,
• 23:42
  Speaker 2: but I'm not sure he's ever going to be good
• 23:45
  Speaker 2: at this. Well that's how I feel a year and
• 23:48
  Speaker 2: a half, two years into this Dan Wilson managerial step.
• 23:52
  Speaker 4: And again, this may be a dumb question, but couldn't
• 23:55
  Speaker 4: Pete Woodworth, Like, couldn't we try it out that Pete
• 23:57
  Speaker 4: would make the decisions.
• 23:58
  Speaker 5: I mean, they're his pitchers, right, he's there, he kind of.
• 24:00
  Speaker 3: Knows no, I mean that's not the I mean, that's not.
• 24:04
  Speaker 4: The job, right, but Dan, it is Dan's job, and
• 24:07
  Speaker 4: he's not good at it, so like could be at
• 24:08
  Speaker 4: least help.
• 24:10
  Speaker 2: I think that's probably outside the scope of a pitching coach.
• 24:14
  Speaker 2: I think he contributes. I think your bench coach is
• 24:17
  Speaker 2: the more likely guy, you know. I mean, Joe torri
• 24:20
  Speaker 2: At Don Zimmer and Don Zimmer made a lot of
• 24:23
  Speaker 2: those decisions for him when the Yankees were winning championships.
• 24:26
  Speaker 2: So many acta who's been a manager should be that guy.
• 24:30
  Speaker 2: But I'm not sure if the pair really know what
• 24:33
  Speaker 2: they're doing. I would like to stage Man versus Dan.
• 24:36
  Speaker 2: I don't know how he can do this, but I
• 24:38
  Speaker 2: would like to be able to sit there and have
• 24:41
  Speaker 2: the entire world see what I would do. Yeah, well,
• 24:46
  Speaker 2: you know, I like, here's the change I would make actively,
• 24:49
  Speaker 2: Like there's a some sort of screen where he makes
• 24:53
  Speaker 2: the decisions, but I get to play along at home. Yeah,
• 24:56
  Speaker 2: and like, these are the decisions that I would make,
• 24:58
  Speaker 2: and then run him through a computer and see how
• 25:00
  Speaker 2: they would have turned out differently.
• 25:01
  Speaker 5: Yeah, game simulation, that's Dan, the training Dan needs.
• 25:04
  Speaker 2: Yeah, Man versus Dan, I would like to stage that.
• 25:08
  Speaker 3: Jay is for Julio.
• 25:10
  Speaker 2: We are entering July and this is Julio time, and
• 25:15
  Speaker 2: I think we're starting to see him. He's had a
• 25:18
  Speaker 2: lot of bad luck this year. I don't know if
• 25:20
  Speaker 2: there's I think there is a statistic. Andrews was just
• 25:22
  Speaker 2: telling me yesterday, I think there is a statistic. I
• 25:25
  Speaker 2: should have wrote it down, suggesting that he's had about
• 25:28
  Speaker 2: as bad luck as anybody in baseball.
• 25:30
  Speaker 5: Yeah, that's what he was saying yesterday.
• 25:32
  Speaker 2: So far this season, and I think he's had a
• 25:35
  Speaker 2: lot of line drives right at people. I think he's
• 25:37
  Speaker 2: had a lot of ground balls up the middle that
• 25:40
  Speaker 2: he was defended perfectly and so he didn't come away
• 25:43
  Speaker 2: with hits. But I want a guy to hit line drives.
• 25:47
  Speaker 2: I want a guy to fail up the middle. To me,
• 25:50
  Speaker 2: that means you're pretty close. And I think in the
• 25:52
  Speaker 2: last week, I think Julio's close. I think he's close
• 25:56
  Speaker 2: to breaking out. And there is just something about Julio
• 26:01
  Speaker 2: and the calendar where these worlds come together. I mean,
• 26:06
  Speaker 2: this is where he starts to get hot every year.
• 26:10
  Speaker 2: I mean, here are his ops is throughout his career,
• 26:13
  Speaker 2: and that's that's combined slugging an on base percentage, and
• 26:19
  Speaker 2: six hundred is bad, seven hundred is okay, eight hundred
• 26:25
  Speaker 2: is good, nine hundred is great, a thousand is phenomenal.
• 26:29
  Speaker 3: Okay.
• 26:29
  Speaker 2: So that's sort of the key that you go by
• 26:33
  Speaker 2: April and March throughout his career. Six point fifty nine
• 26:36
  Speaker 2: ops May seven ninety eight. That's across his entire career
• 26:42
  Speaker 2: June six ninety four. For the last four seasons, he
• 26:47
  Speaker 2: has entered the month of July with a six point
• 26:52
  Speaker 2: fifty one ops. No excuse me, a seven forty five ops,
• 26:56
  Speaker 2: seven twenty one, six twenty five, seven ten, and seven
• 27:00
  Speaker 2: ninety nine. So never over eight hundred heading into the
• 27:05
  Speaker 2: month of July. And yet in the month of July,
• 27:08
  Speaker 2: Julio Rodriguez OPS is eight seventy six throughout his career.
• 27:14
  Speaker 2: In August it's nine to twenty six, and then in
• 27:17
  Speaker 2: September nine fifteen, he turns into for whatever reason, in
• 27:22
  Speaker 2: the second half of a season, an MVP type player.
• 27:26
  Speaker 2: And so I think we've seen a better version of
• 27:30
  Speaker 2: Julio through the first three months of the season than
• 27:33
  Speaker 2: we typically see and maybe have ever seen.
• 27:36
  Speaker 5: I would think so.
• 27:37
  Speaker 3: And now he's getting ready for the months.
• 27:39
  Speaker 2: And maybe it's psychological, maybe it's the weather, who knows
• 27:42
  Speaker 2: what it is. Maybe it's just some players can start hot,
• 27:46
  Speaker 2: and some players need the ramp up to get where
• 27:49
  Speaker 2: they need to be, and Julio, whatever reason, does not
• 27:53
  Speaker 2: get going until the month of July. Well, we didn't
• 27:57
  Speaker 2: play a game yesterday on July first, So Julio Rodriguez
• 28:01
  Speaker 2: starts July today and let's see if he can catch fire.
• 28:06
  Speaker 2: So combine the two things, his history and just eyeballing it.
• 28:10
  Speaker 2: It looks like he's close to breaking out to me,
• 28:13
  Speaker 2: and maybe we're going to see Julio Rodriguez catch fire well,
• 28:16
  Speaker 2: and it's no surprise or coincidence.
• 28:18
  Speaker 4: I don't think that Julio is Spanish for July. I mean,
• 28:23
  Speaker 4: it just makes sense.
• 28:24
  Speaker 3: Science. Yeah, it's science.
• 28:26
  Speaker 5: It's science.
• 28:27
  Speaker 2: And then Ka Kay is killing us softly, So I'm sorry.
• 28:32
  Speaker 2: I mean I should end on a positive note, right,
• 28:35
  Speaker 2: this is the last show we're going to have till Monday,
• 28:38
  Speaker 2: so I should leave the ABC's on a positive note.
• 28:40
  Speaker 2: But the fact of the matter is, I do think
• 28:43
  Speaker 2: Julio's close. I think we are going to see him
• 28:45
  Speaker 2: break out, and I think he's going to get ready
• 28:47
  Speaker 2: to go on a tear. I don't feel the same
• 28:49
  Speaker 2: way about cal Raleigh and any other player. We would
• 28:53
  Speaker 2: be killing cal Raley for the first half that he's
• 28:57
  Speaker 2: having so far this season, Uz it's cal Raley and
• 29:03
  Speaker 2: he's beloved, and he's coming off the season that he
• 29:05
  Speaker 2: came off of a year ago, and because he brings
• 29:07
  Speaker 2: so much more to the table than just his offensive numbers,
• 29:11
  Speaker 2: I mean, we get where we're giving him as much
• 29:14
  Speaker 2: rope as possible. I mean, he's not taking the criticism
• 29:17
  Speaker 2: that he's probably earned to this point and the season.
• 29:21
  Speaker 2: And I don't mean certainly me talking about this isn't
• 29:24
  Speaker 2: going to add any more pressure to Cal Raley's plate.
• 29:27
  Speaker 2: He's not even going to be made aware of this.
• 29:29
  Speaker 2: You all know that we love Cal. Everybody loves Cal.
• 29:32
  Speaker 2: But he's got to get going right now. He has
• 29:36
  Speaker 2: a minus war. His war is worse than Johnny Parida's
• 29:40
  Speaker 2: and Mitch Garver's. Wow, And that's an indication of your
• 29:44
  Speaker 2: overall contribution to the baseball team. And that's a cumulative
• 29:48
  Speaker 2: stat So he's had more time to accumulate war credentials
• 29:53
  Speaker 2: than what Parda and Garver have. And yet they both
• 29:56
  Speaker 2: have higher wars. They both have higher ops's, they both
• 29:59
  Speaker 2: have higher slugging percentages. Actually I think Cal's is slightly
• 30:03
  Speaker 2: above Mitch's, but Johnny Paradas is higher. They both have
• 30:05
  Speaker 2: better higher batting averages. They both have higher on base percentage,
• 30:10
  Speaker 2: Mitch Garver and Johnny Parade. I mean, think about what
• 30:13
  Speaker 2: I'm telling you. If I would have said this at
• 30:15
  Speaker 2: the beginning of the year, you run me out of town.
• 30:18
  Speaker 2: Johnny Pareda and Mitch Garver have outplayed cal Rawley so
• 30:21
  Speaker 2: far this season. I mean, think about that, Yeah, think
• 30:24
  Speaker 2: about the magnitude of that statement.
• 30:26
  Speaker 4: That's shocking, honestly.
• 30:29
  Speaker 2: And so we've got to get him going. And I
• 30:31
  Speaker 2: do trust that he will get going. But I didn't
• 30:36
  Speaker 2: see in his most recent at bats somebody that's like,
• 30:40
  Speaker 2: I feel like Julio looks close. I don't know if
• 30:43
  Speaker 2: I feel that way about Cal And we are now
• 30:46
  Speaker 2: half we're over halfway into this season.
• 30:50
  Speaker 3: He's got to get going. He's got to get going.
• 30:52
  Speaker 2: So whatever whatever that takes, if that's pressure, whatever that is,
• 30:56
  Speaker 2: I'm throwing it out there. Cal Rawley has got to
• 30:59
  Speaker 2: get going now, not tomorrow, not next year, not next month.
• 31:04
  Speaker 2: He's got to get going right now, right there alongside Julio,
• 31:08
  Speaker 2: and then we're gonna go on this tear we've been
• 31:10
  Speaker 2: waiting for, and then we're gonna run away with the
• 31:13
  Speaker 2: American League West. But we got to get him going.
• 31:15
  Speaker 2: He can't be a negative on our baseball team, which
• 31:19
  Speaker 2: is what he's been so far this year. As painful
• 31:22
  Speaker 2: as that is to say out loud.
• 31:23
  Speaker 4: Yeah, and I would say that I think that he
• 31:25
  Speaker 4: probably fully agrees with everything you're saying. He does have
• 31:28
  Speaker 4: to get going. He doesn't want to be a negative
• 31:29
  Speaker 4: on this team. He wants to contribute more than anybody.
• 31:33
  Speaker 4: So yeah, I think it's probably killing him softly.
• 31:36
  Speaker 2: Yeah, all right, Coming up next, Well, when sports meets love.
• 31:42
  Speaker 2: It is a magical combination and apparently this SPUVE needs
• 31:47
  Speaker 2: a major auditorium to contain it. SPUVE is next on KJR,
• 31:54
  Speaker 2: The sports marriage of the Century. Like since DiMaggio and Monroe,
• 32:01
  Speaker 2: We've never had a sports entertainment marriage like this. I
• 32:04
  Speaker 2: might argue, Yeah, tonight, Taylor Swift and Travis Kelcey, as
• 32:09
  Speaker 2: long as somebody doesn't get cold feet are tie in
• 32:12
  Speaker 2: the not.
• 32:13
  Speaker 5: Well, tonight is the rehearsal dinner, I believe.
• 32:15
  Speaker 3: Oh I thought tonight was the night.
• 32:16
  Speaker 4: It's like the one is like one hundred people tonight,
• 32:20
  Speaker 4: and then they're saying five, there's a permit for five
• 32:23
  Speaker 4: hundred and ninety nine or five hundred to nine hundred
• 32:25
  Speaker 4: and ninety nine people there tomorrow that's when the big
• 32:29
  Speaker 4: gig is. Oh yeah, I keep thinking of today's Friday,
• 32:33
  Speaker 4: Today's Thursday.
• 32:33
  Speaker 2: Yeah, that's right, Okay. I keep thinking today's Friday because
• 32:36
  Speaker 2: it's our last show. Yeah Friday, it's tomorrow.
• 32:40
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 32:40
  Speaker 2: By the time we're on the air again Monday, they
• 32:43
  Speaker 2: will be wed and all of our lives will have changed.
• 32:46
  Speaker 4: I mean dramatically. I did wear my Taylor Swift sweatshirt today.
• 32:51
  Speaker 4: I would like you to know it was purely accidental.
• 32:54
  Speaker 3: I don't believe that. I think you put on your
• 32:56
  Speaker 3: game day jerseys what I think.
• 32:58
  Speaker 4: And then I laughed when I did it because so
• 33:00
  Speaker 4: I was getting dressed and I restarted the dryer because
• 33:03
  Speaker 4: I had some stuff I washed last night and I
• 33:05
  Speaker 4: wanted it to not be wrinkled.
• 33:06
  Speaker 5: And I was like, oh, this is in there. This
• 33:09
  Speaker 5: is comfy.
• 33:09
  Speaker 4: And then I was like, and it's fitting because tonight
• 33:13
  Speaker 4: is the rehearsal.
• 33:14
  Speaker 2: Yes, Friday is the wedding of Travis Kelcey and Taylor Swift.
• 33:19
  Speaker 2: Now they are doing it at Madison Square Garden.
• 33:22
  Speaker 6: Yes.
• 33:22
  Speaker 2: Now I don't understand this. First of all, there's no
• 33:25
  Speaker 2: way that you have enough friends to fill Madison Square Garden.
• 33:28
  Speaker 2: Are they opening up to fans? No?
• 33:30
  Speaker 4: No, No, It's like they have a hole setup. It's
• 33:33
  Speaker 4: supposed to be this big garden party theme. The whole
• 33:35
  Speaker 4: thing is supposed to be set like they're in a garden,
• 33:38
  Speaker 4: it'll all be on the floor in Madison's curtains everywhere,
• 33:42
  Speaker 4: so you won't see all the seats and all the
• 33:43
  Speaker 4: other stuff. You'll have no idea. I'm assuming because they're
• 33:46
  Speaker 4: don't they just.
• 33:46
  Speaker 3: Do it in a real garden then.
• 33:48
  Speaker 4: Because of privacy things, So when Madison Square Garden they.
• 33:51
  Speaker 2: Got, Madison Square Garden is more private. I can't get
• 33:55
  Speaker 2: in doing it in your own backyard or something like that,
• 33:58
  Speaker 2: or some private beach.
• 33:59
  Speaker 4: Yeah, because you can have helicopters and drones and all
• 34:02
  Speaker 4: sorts of things flying over you if you're outside, and
• 34:04
  Speaker 4: so if you're in Madison Square Garden, nobody can be
• 34:06
  Speaker 4: filming it. There's entrances that are private and all sorts
• 34:11
  Speaker 4: of things to keep cameras away.
• 34:13
  Speaker 3: Oh is that hat why they're doing that?
• 34:15
  Speaker 5: I believe so, yeah, and then it's more secure.
• 34:17
  Speaker 3: I don't know.
• 34:18
  Speaker 2: I think they're just doing it to say that they
• 34:20
  Speaker 2: did it because they can afford it.
• 34:22
  Speaker 4: She can afford She can afford it, yeah, sure, So
• 34:25
  Speaker 4: I don't know, as he could probably afford it as well,
• 34:27
  Speaker 4: but she can definitely.
• 34:28
  Speaker 3: I don't know.
• 34:29
  Speaker 2: I would imagine it costs a pretty penny to rent
• 34:32
  Speaker 2: out Madison Square Garden for your wedding.
• 34:35
  Speaker 5: Well, and I think they started renting it.
• 34:36
  Speaker 4: I think the rental started on like the thirty or yes,
• 34:39
  Speaker 4: two days ago was when they started loading things in.
• 34:42
  Speaker 5: And it's rented through Sunday.
• 34:45
  Speaker 2: Then again, you Ben Stellar tells me he's never paid
• 34:48
  Speaker 2: for a ticket in his life the next game. Maybe
• 34:50
  Speaker 2: they just gave it to her for the publicity. Maybe
• 34:52
  Speaker 2: she gets it for free. That's the richer you are,
• 34:54
  Speaker 2: the more free stuff you get. It's a very weird
• 34:56
  Speaker 2: thing that works. But I was hoping we would just
• 34:59
  Speaker 2: find she has a friend named Madison who has a
• 35:02
  Speaker 2: square garden and that's where they're having it. And then
• 35:05
  Speaker 2: they just called it Madison Square Garden, but they're actually
• 35:08
  Speaker 2: having it at MSG. I really don't envy Travis Kelcey
• 35:13
  Speaker 2: for marrying Taylor Swift. I really don't envy anything about it,
• 35:18
  Speaker 2: you know what. I think the role that I would
• 35:21
  Speaker 2: like to fill, I think though I would like to
• 35:23
  Speaker 2: be a groomsman at a wedding that was held at.
• 35:26
  Speaker 3: Madison Square Garden. I think that would be a great memory.
• 35:29
  Speaker 2: I don't really want to be the person that is
• 35:32
  Speaker 2: making the show of myself, But if I was a
• 35:35
  Speaker 2: part of that big of a show, I think that'd
• 35:38
  Speaker 2: be pretty fun. Yeah.
• 35:39
  Speaker 4: No, I think that would be a blast. I would
• 35:40
  Speaker 4: like to just be in there and see it all
• 35:42
  Speaker 4: and have a good time.
• 35:43
  Speaker 5: But also I think.
• 35:45
  Speaker 4: It'd be really funny if everyone thinks they've rented out
• 35:48
  Speaker 4: Madison Square Garden for their wedding so that they can
• 35:50
  Speaker 4: just have it in a backyard, so all the press
• 35:52
  Speaker 4: will be out there waiting, and then she's just in
• 35:54
  Speaker 4: Rhode Island at her mansion having a small little wedding.
• 35:57
  Speaker 3: Oh that's even better.
• 35:58
  Speaker 2: Yeah, would that be funny?
• 36:00
  Speaker 4: Boka likes Yeah, you know, just have people go pay
• 36:03
  Speaker 4: people extras that are going in and out.
• 36:05
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 36:05
  Speaker 2: I mean, who was that singer that everybody thought was
• 36:08
  Speaker 2: Travis Kelcey dressed up?
• 36:09
  Speaker 6: Oh?
• 36:10
  Speaker 2: Yeah, Sam Smith?
• 36:11
  Speaker 3: Yea Sam Smith.
• 36:14
  Speaker 5: You know that's a great idea.
• 36:16
  Speaker 6: Uh.
• 36:17
  Speaker 2: And I'm sure you can find a Taylor Swift double
• 36:19
  Speaker 2: out there. And then yeah, we got you and you
• 36:21
  Speaker 2: pull the back and they turn around and Taylor's got
• 36:23
  Speaker 2: like a beard and a mustache.
• 36:25
  Speaker 3: It's a man the best, Yeah, and it and it's
• 36:27
  Speaker 3: Sam Smith.
• 36:28
  Speaker 4: And then Taylor and Travis just got married. With like
• 36:30
  Speaker 4: fifty of their closest friends in her backyard.
• 36:31
  Speaker 3: That's what you should have done.
• 36:32
  Speaker 5: That's what I hope. There's still a chance.
• 36:35
  Speaker 3: There is a chance.
• 36:36
  Speaker 2: This hell, they could have gotten on a hot air
• 36:38
  Speaker 2: balloon and floating. Nobody can crash a hot air balloon. Yeah,
• 36:43
  Speaker 2: float it off and to you know, and float over
• 36:46
  Speaker 2: Madison Square.
• 36:47
  Speaker 5: Gardens and then laugh at everyone down there.
• 36:50
  Speaker 3: Why not?
• 36:51
  Speaker 2: But obviously we've been waiting for this our entire lives forever,
• 36:58
  Speaker 2: and it's going to finally happened on Friday, And I
• 37:01
  Speaker 2: don't know what it's going to feel like when I
• 37:04
  Speaker 2: wake Saturday.
• 37:05
  Speaker 3: A new man, all right?
• 37:09
  Speaker 2: Coming up next, Tim Reynolds is going to join us.
