- 1:02Speaker 3: just like, all right, let's just go.
- 1:04Speaker 4: It's like, let's just start.
- 1:08Speaker 3: Anyone that things were like an organized professional group is
- 1:13Speaker 3: so mistaken.
- 1:14Speaker 4: And you would think, like, after all this time, we'd

- 1:38Speaker 1: yeah sounds good. Yeah, and I'm and now we've got
- 1:41Speaker 1: using my own computer now. So yeah, Actually, your hackers
- 1:45Speaker 1: come on in. Oh you teen hackers in Europe and Australia,
- 1:51Speaker 1: go ahead the way.
- 1:53Speaker 3: I won't even talk about it right now because people
- 1:55Speaker 3: get so irritated when we side talk. But that Vegas
- 1:59Speaker 3: hacking was crazy.
- 2:01Speaker 4: Oh my, my dad was there the weekend it happened,
- 2:04Speaker 4: so he we had it. We have a condo in
- 2:07Speaker 4: Vegas and with all that flooding, the roof caved in.
- 2:10Speaker 3: Oh, so he had to go deal with it.
- 2:11Speaker 4: So we had to go deal with it. And he
- 2:12Speaker 4: was staying at I don't know which resort. It was
- 2:15Speaker 4: an MGM resort and he was there for one night
- 2:17Speaker 4: and he got a five hundred dollars charge for the
- 2:19Speaker 4: mini bar and he was like, he's like what in
- 2:22Speaker 4: the world. So we called and he's like, hey, this
- 2:23Speaker 4: is a mistake and they were like, no worries, like
- 2:25Speaker 4: we'll take care of it. And then that's when the
- 2:27Speaker 4: day of the the news came out that the hack.
- 2:30Speaker 3: Oh my gosh, yeah, bananas. Anyway, we digress. Don't write
- 2:35Speaker 3: us letters?
- 2:35Speaker 1: All right? Kids? You want to get you want to
- 2:37Speaker 1: you want to start digging into this?
- 2:39Speaker 3: Definitely you want me to start this. I'm not at
- 2:43Speaker 3: doing funky town.
- 2:45Speaker 1: Come on, man.
- 2:46Speaker 3: This was actually one of my favorite parts of the
- 2:48Speaker 3: episode because so Loralai rushes Luke out of the diner
- 2:51Speaker 3: to celebrate their engagement and lives to this, where are
- 2:53Speaker 3: we going to funky town? And then tell the best
- 2:57Speaker 3: part of it is the couple lines after when she's like,
- 3:00Speaker 3: was it the funky tone? Was it fun?
- 3:04Speaker 1: So?
- 3:04Speaker 3: Funky Down is a song by Lips Inc. And it
- 3:08Speaker 3: was released by Casablanca Records in March nineteen eighty. Laurelai
- 3:12Speaker 3: makes this reference because the lyrics of the song pine
- 3:15Speaker 3: for a metaphorical place that will keep me moving, keep
- 3:18Speaker 3: me grooven with some energy. I never I mean, I
- 3:21Speaker 3: just always think about won't you take me too? Funky?
- 3:25Speaker 1: Yeah? Man, that song doesn't get you move in your
- 3:29Speaker 1: battery powered laurel I telling Taylor that she and Luke
- 3:33Speaker 1: are engaged. Taylor, I thought there was a better chance
- 3:37Speaker 1: of all for the Beatles getting back together than you
- 3:40Speaker 1: two ever calming down long enough to get engaged. In
- 3:44Speaker 1: nineteen seventy McCartney Paul McCartney said in a press release
- 3:48Speaker 1: that he was no longer working with the group, which
- 3:50Speaker 1: sparked a widespread media reaction and worsened a tension between
- 3:54Speaker 1: him and his bandmates. Let's just call it what it is.
- 3:58Speaker 1: John Lennon Leal and you know at that time George
- 4:01Speaker 1: Harrison wanted out too. He couldn't because they weren't using
- 4:05Speaker 1: his songs.
- 4:06Speaker 3: You know this, didn't he write some of the best songs.
- 4:10Speaker 1: I think they rejected songs like my guitar gently weeps
- 4:13Speaker 1: and like really like massive songs. And they didn't. They
- 4:18Speaker 1: just dominated. John and Paul dominated the songwriting. Georgia had
- 4:21Speaker 1: enough anyway, legal disputes he got so well. Legal disputes
- 4:26Speaker 1: continued long after his announcement, and the disillusion was not
- 4:31Speaker 1: formalized until December twenty ninth, nineteen seventy four. After Lenin's
- 4:35Speaker 1: murder tragic murder in nineteen eighty I'll never forget that day.
- 4:39Speaker 1: The surviving members reunited for the Anthology project in nineteen
- 4:44Speaker 1: ninety four, using the unfinished Lenin demos Free as a
- 4:47Speaker 1: Bird and Real Love as the basis for new songs
- 4:50Speaker 1: recorded and released as the Beatles. Interesting, yeah, I mean
- 4:59Speaker 1: they were together. They were together since. I mean they
- 5:02Speaker 1: were together fourteen fifteen years since, like fifty five or
- 5:05Speaker 1: something like that.
- 5:08Speaker 3: I saw Paul McCartney live who did You Really? Yeah?
- 5:12Speaker 3: At my in Berkeley at the Football Stadium, and it
- 5:15Speaker 3: was rad. I'm not gonna lie. It was very rare.
- 5:17Speaker 3: You know.
- 5:17Speaker 1: They made a demo tape for a record company after
- 5:22Speaker 1: I think after they'd played in Hamburg for a little while,
- 5:24Speaker 1: because they went to Hamburg all as like teenagers except
- 5:27Speaker 1: for I think Ringo was twenty and they were so
- 5:31Speaker 1: tight as a band. They went make this demo tape
- 5:33Speaker 1: I think in London and they didn't get the record deal.
- 5:36Speaker 1: And you should hear the demo tape. Oh my god,
- 5:38Speaker 1: it's fantastic.
- 5:39Speaker 3: Can you imagine the people to turn them down?
- 5:42Speaker 1: Oh god, can you imagine? Did they have jobs after that? Well?
- 5:45Speaker 1: Who knows? Tyr you want to grab one? Are you
- 5:50Speaker 1: busy producing a.
- 5:52Speaker 4: Little multitasking here today?
- 5:54Speaker 1: Let's do it all right?
- 5:56Speaker 4: So Luke is looking for alcohol to toast with. Luke
- 5:59Speaker 4: says nothing, no wine, no beer, no cooking Sherry. It's
- 6:02Speaker 4: like Dylan Thomas just blew through town. Dylan Thomas was
- 6:06Speaker 4: a Welsh poet and writer whose works include the poems
- 6:09Speaker 4: do Not Go Gentle Into That good Night and Death
- 6:13Speaker 4: Shall Have No Dominion, as well as the play for
- 6:15Speaker 4: Voices Under milk Wood, The Bikers in Town Wipe tailor Supply.
- 6:21Speaker 4: So Luke compares the bikers to Dylan Thomas because he
- 6:24Speaker 4: was an alcoholic.
- 6:26Speaker 1: Huh.
- 6:28Speaker 4: I wouldn't have got that one. I didn't get that one.
- 6:32Speaker 3: Rory asked how Laura Lai handled the news. You know
- 6:35Speaker 3: your mother, Rory. Everything's the end of the world, so
- 6:38Speaker 3: dramatic ladies and gentlemen. Lauraai Barrymore, which I actually did
- 6:42Speaker 3: laugh because I got this reference because it has to
- 6:44Speaker 3: do with It's not Drew Barrymore, it's actually her.
- 6:51Speaker 1: Father, I think also Lionel.
- 6:55Speaker 3: No her father, it's all the barrymorees. I think they
- 6:59Speaker 3: all kind of had drama. So this one might in
- 7:02Speaker 3: fact be referencing Drew, but when I took it, I
- 7:05Speaker 3: took it as the other Barrymore. But anyway, we'll talk about.
- 7:08Speaker 1: Drew Wellore was that great Shakespearean actor or the grandfather
- 7:17Speaker 1: or the great grandfather. But yeah, they were yeah.
- 7:18Speaker 3: Oh yeah, that's the that's the grandfather. I think we
- 7:20Speaker 3: had to go through the family tree. But they might
- 7:23Speaker 3: have been referencing Drew Barrymore because she had sort of
- 7:28Speaker 3: that tumultuous, dramatic teenage years. So she was an et
- 7:34Speaker 3: as everybody knows, she was girty, and then she went
- 7:38Speaker 3: on to do more I think fire Starter, I can't
- 7:39Speaker 3: remember which came first, but then she had those rough
- 7:42Speaker 3: teenage years where she was kind of bad. And remember
- 7:44Speaker 3: she was like in clubs. She was at oh my god,
- 7:50Speaker 3: what's that big famous club that was in New York
- 7:52Speaker 3: something fifty.
- 7:53Speaker 1: Two of Studio fifty four, Studio.
- 7:55Speaker 3: Fifty more when she was like six years old. And
- 7:58Speaker 3: then remember she flash David Letterman. So anyway, it's in
- 8:02Speaker 3: references sort of to me, the Barrymore sort of family
- 8:05Speaker 3: and all the drama, which is ironic because through Barrymore
- 8:10Speaker 3: just recently got herself into a little hot water. I
- 8:13Speaker 3: was going to say with the strike, because she was
- 8:16Speaker 3: going to bring her show back. Then she apologized but
- 8:19Speaker 3: was still going to bring it back. Then people kind
- 8:22Speaker 3: of dragged her so much that now she didn't bring
- 8:24Speaker 3: it back.
- 8:25Speaker 4: I feel like her intentions were there though, because she
- 8:27Speaker 4: was saying, like her staff, you know, needs to get
- 8:29Speaker 4: paid and stuff like that. Wasn't that the main Yeah,
- 8:32Speaker 4: I think it's.
- 8:32Speaker 3: Tough because these people don't know what to do. It
- 8:35Speaker 3: seems like people are much happier with this decision.
- 8:37Speaker 1: I mean, you know, we were shooting on Sullivan's crossing,
- 8:41Speaker 1: but it's because it's Canadian show, right, and.
- 8:44Speaker 3: You have a waiver which people shouldn't know.
- 8:46Speaker 1: Well, sure, and they gave way. They give waivers to
- 8:49Speaker 1: a lot of productions that are foreign, right, but maybe
- 8:53Speaker 1: have one or two Americans in the cares the American strike, right,
- 8:58Speaker 1: if Chad and I struck, you know, if we went
- 9:01Speaker 1: on strike, this production would shut down.
- 9:04Speaker 3: And it's unstruck work because it's not right. It's not
- 9:07Speaker 3: a sag it's a Canadian.
- 9:10Speaker 1: Show correct, correct, But it would if we if we
- 9:13Speaker 1: went on strike, you know, that would put you know,
- 9:16Speaker 1: hundreds of Canadians out of work. But you want to
- 9:20Speaker 1: have solidarity, and then you know, it's just like walking
- 9:23Speaker 1: that fine line. What's what do you do?
- 9:25Speaker 3: That's exactly right? It's very kind of confusing what you're
- 9:28Speaker 3: supposed to do. I mean, luckily you guys are not
- 9:31Speaker 3: You've got you're good to do it. H Yeah, and
- 9:36Speaker 3: we will be watching it.
- 9:38Speaker 1: Yeah. But you know, to our brothers and sisters out there,
- 9:41Speaker 1: we support you one percent. Yeah.
- 9:45Speaker 3: It's tough. It's really tough. And it's going on a
- 9:48Speaker 3: really long time.
- 9:50Speaker 1: I mean, they have a fund where people you know,
- 9:52Speaker 1: have to stand in line for you know, hours to
- 9:55Speaker 1: get a couple hundred bucks worth of groceries. It's it's
- 9:58Speaker 1: in burbankers in the sweltering heat. It's really tough out there. Yeah,
- 10:04Speaker 1: and I hope we can get a fair deal. I
- 10:08Speaker 1: really do. It's really important for so many people, so
- 10:10Speaker 1: many creatives, you know, it really really is. So anyway,
- 10:16Speaker 1: well on to start.
- 10:17Speaker 4: I was gonna say, Amy, this one I just did.
- 10:21Speaker 3: I think this is Scott.
- 10:22Speaker 1: I want to do one story the intercom Emily would
- 10:26Speaker 1: just push a button away like Star Tracks. Star Trek
- 10:30Speaker 1: is an American science fiction media franchise created in the sixties.
- 10:34Speaker 1: The television series became a worldwide pop culture phenomenon and
- 10:38Speaker 1: expanded into various films, video games, novels, and comic books,
- 10:42Speaker 1: becoming one of the most recognizable and highest grossing media
- 10:45Speaker 1: franchise of all time. On on ship communications achieved via
- 10:52Speaker 1: communicator panels.
- 10:54Speaker 3: On this it was legit. It was legit. It was
- 10:57Speaker 3: you know how they would talk to each other.
- 10:59Speaker 1: What a show?
- 11:00Speaker 3: Uh?
- 11:00Speaker 1: And sometimes to the use of video phones. Well offship,
- 11:04Speaker 1: the crew carried handheld communicators that flipped.
- 11:07Speaker 3: Those were pretty legit too. Wait did you watch Star Trek?
- 11:11Speaker 1: Oh? Sure everybody did.
- 11:12Speaker 3: Yeah, And did you watch did you watch any of
- 11:15Speaker 3: the other ones since, like Star Trek the Next Generation?
- 11:19Speaker 3: Like all the millions that there are now? I watched
- 11:21Speaker 3: Star Trek the Next Generation? Not really, and I watched
- 11:23Speaker 3: all the movies, and I watched the Chris Pine version
- 11:26Speaker 3: of the movies.
- 11:27Speaker 1: Yeah, I think I saw that one.
- 11:29Speaker 3: Yeah, I'm into this. I love Star Trek. They obviously
- 11:33Speaker 3: they use a lot of Star Trek pop culture references
- 11:35Speaker 3: on Gilmour Girls. There's definitely somebody that's a big fan
- 11:40Speaker 3: in the writing team, because.
- 11:42Speaker 1: I think it's I think it's Dan. Yeah. Between that,
- 11:45Speaker 1: I don't think Amy grew up a Trecky. I think
- 11:49Speaker 1: grew up a Trek.
- 11:50Speaker 4: I was gonna say, between that and Charlie and the
- 11:52Speaker 4: Chocolate Factory.
- 11:54Speaker 3: Yeah, there's a few that definitely Oh my gosh, the
- 11:57Speaker 3: irony is the next one.
- 11:59Speaker 4: Well, that's why I'll go on this one, ye. Paris
- 12:07Speaker 4: tells Rory she's meeting more of Doyle's family and he's
- 12:11Speaker 4: the tallest in his family. Paris says, yep, family get
- 12:14Speaker 4: together is like a Lollipop Guild convention. I have to
- 12:17Speaker 4: stop myself from asking how it's going at the Chocolate Factory.
- 12:21Speaker 4: Paris is referring to the movie The Wizard of Oz.
- 12:23Speaker 4: The Lollipop Guild was a group of munchkins in the
- 12:26Speaker 4: Munchkin Country who welcomed Dorothy Gail to Oz with song
- 12:32Speaker 4: and dance upon her arrival. The munchkins are very short.
- 12:36Speaker 4: Paris is referring to the nineteen sixty four novel Charlie
- 12:38Speaker 4: and the Chocolate Factory by Roald Dahl, which was adapted
- 12:41Speaker 4: into the films Willy Wonka the Chocolate Factory in nineteen
- 12:44Speaker 4: seventy one, as well as Charlie and the Chocolate Factory
- 12:47Speaker 4: in two thousand and five. In the film, Willy Wonka
- 12:49Speaker 4: has several oop balloompas working in the factory who are
- 12:52Speaker 4: very short, and Paris is comparing Doyle's family to the
- 12:55Speaker 4: umballumpas and the Munchkins. My goodness, and there's a new
- 12:58Speaker 4: there's a new one with Timothy Shallomey coming out.
- 13:02Speaker 1: Oh really, Yeah, that's great?
- 13:04Speaker 4: Is he he's Yonka Willie Wonka?
- 13:07Speaker 1: Yeah? Yeah, so he's the new Johnny Depp.
- 13:10Speaker 4: Yeah, basically, yeah. I feel like it's gonna be good.
- 13:14Speaker 4: Like I can see him in that character. I mean
- 13:16Speaker 4: him in the character.
- 13:18Speaker 3: I love the whole story, and there's parts that kind
- 13:20Speaker 3: of creep me out. Yeah, And I got that found
- 13:24Speaker 3: thing where I'm like, you know what I mean, I just.
- 13:27Speaker 4: Don't know if we need an I didn't know if
- 13:29Speaker 4: we need another out of picture of the movie.
- 13:36Speaker 3: Paris asks Rory if Rory wants to move in with
- 13:39Speaker 3: Paris and Doyle, Very, Bob, Carrol, Tedanalice minus Bob, Bob
- 13:45Speaker 3: and Carol and Ted and Alice were It was in
- 13:47Speaker 3: nineteen sixty nine American comedy drama, which I have never
- 13:51Speaker 3: heard of, really, Natal never I know, and I know
- 13:54Speaker 3: Natalie Wood and Robert Coulpe to me is from the
- 13:58Speaker 3: Greatest American Hero Think Elliott Gould, who is Ross and
- 14:03Speaker 3: Rachel's dad on Friends, and Diane Cannon, who is a
- 14:07Speaker 3: famous Lakers fan. Those are sort of my at least
- 14:09Speaker 3: I know all the players.
- 14:10Speaker 1: Diane Cannon was one of the most dynamic and glamorous
- 14:15Speaker 1: actresses of her time.
- 14:17Speaker 3: Yeah, Elliott also was in Ocean's Eleven.
- 14:20Speaker 1: Yes, Elliot Cole was in at Elliott Goule was a
- 14:22Speaker 1: movie star in the sixties and seventies.
- 14:25Speaker 3: And Robert Colp was also.
- 14:26Speaker 1: In These were these were the biggest names of their day. Yeah,
- 14:31Speaker 1: what was the film.
- 14:33Speaker 3: What was that Bill Cosby show that he was in
- 14:35Speaker 3: with Robert Colp?
- 14:36Speaker 1: Oh sure that was, oh that detective thing?
- 14:39Speaker 3: Yeah, what was that called? It's not Yet Smart? It's
- 14:42Speaker 3: the other one?
- 14:43Speaker 1: Something with a spy in it. I spy, I spy.
- 14:47Speaker 3: Yeah, and then Natalie would obviously we know and then
- 14:54Speaker 3: which is still very kind of confused.
- 14:56Speaker 1: Yeah, Diane Cannon. I used to see her gym all
- 14:58Speaker 1: the time and no when I lived in La Yeah.
- 15:02Speaker 3: And okay, keep me honest, but I think Diane Cannon's
- 15:05Speaker 3: daughter m hmm, with Carrie Grant. Is that is that
- 15:09Speaker 3: possibly right, Jennifer Grant? That was on nine o two
- 15:12Speaker 3: on us.
- 15:12Speaker 1: That is correct.
- 15:13Speaker 3: Thank you for my facts, all right. Capturing the sexual
- 15:17Speaker 3: revolution of the late sixties, this comedy presents two married couples,
- 15:21Speaker 3: Bob and Carroll, and they're best friends, more traditional, Ted
- 15:24Speaker 3: and Alice, who are free thinking and are ready for
- 15:28Speaker 3: an open marriage, or so they think. Eventually, some latent
- 15:31Speaker 3: sexual tension and long buried desires among the four come
- 15:35Speaker 3: bubbling to the surface, or as making the joke that
- 15:37Speaker 3: her living with Doyle in Paris would feel like an
- 15:40Speaker 3: open relationship. Wait, this makes me want to watch Bob
- 15:43Speaker 3: and Carroll.
- 15:43Speaker 1: Oh no, it's classic film. It's good.
- 15:48Speaker 3: And I'm already wondering how it ends.
- 15:50Speaker 1: But yeah, we'll have to see you. That was in
- 15:52Speaker 1: the era of like partner swapping. Oh my god, wife
- 15:56Speaker 1: and husbands.
- 15:57Speaker 4: Do you remember that show wife Swap?
- 16:00Speaker 3: Yes?
- 16:01Speaker 1: Is that a recent show?
- 16:02Speaker 3: Yeah, it would be like, okay, this is what wife
- 16:05Speaker 3: swap would be if you and your wife switched places
- 16:09Speaker 3: with like, uh, Sally Struthers and her husband, I don't
- 16:13Speaker 3: know if she has a husband, and you would be
- 16:16Speaker 3: married to Sally Struthers just for a week, like no
- 16:18Speaker 3: funny business, but like you would have to just learn
- 16:20Speaker 3: to like kid and cook with Sally's strothers. So they'd
- 16:24Speaker 3: have celebrities doing it.
- 16:26Speaker 1: Yeah, but that's the the scrubbed up version of it. Yeah, it's.
- 16:35Speaker 4: Okay. So Kirk is talking about the old woman's the
- 16:39Speaker 4: old Woman's ring, Kirk says, old widow Mason thought she
- 16:42Speaker 4: was free to call O towards the end. Free to
- 16:45Speaker 4: Call It was a Mexican painter known for her many portraits,
- 16:47Speaker 4: self portraits, and works inspired by the nature and artifacts
- 16:51Speaker 4: of Mexico. Inspired by the country's popular culture, she employed
- 16:55Speaker 4: a native folk art style to explore questions of identity,
- 16:58Speaker 4: post host colonialism, gender, class, and race in Mexican society.
- 17:06Speaker 3: Hm.
- 17:07Speaker 1: Hm, anybody see that one?
- 17:09Speaker 3: I did not, but I familiar with Free to Call,
- 17:12Speaker 3: though I am very I miss that. This was that? No,
- 17:15Speaker 3: you know, was that the Palma Hyak did Salma Hiak?
- 17:18Speaker 1: Yeah, that's the one she fought for for twenty years
- 17:20Speaker 1: to get made or something. Yeah, I missed that one.
- 17:25Speaker 1: Or we're gonna have to, you know, let's let's do
- 17:28Speaker 1: a double feature. We'll do We'll do this one too.
- 17:33Speaker 3: The next one I did not miss, although in hindsight
- 17:36Speaker 3: I kind of wish I had.
- 17:37Speaker 1: Yeah, I think you're I think is it mean?
- 17:41Speaker 3: I think Paris Helen Ali that Rory can't quit Yale
- 17:45Speaker 3: it's logan that Christopher Atkins want to be is the
- 17:48Speaker 3: reason she's suddenly Blue lagooning it right out of here.
- 17:51Speaker 3: So this made me laugh because there is something kind
- 17:54Speaker 3: of Christopher Atkins about Matt Zugree. So if you're young,
- 18:00Speaker 3: you might not be as familiar with Christopher Atkins. If
- 18:02Speaker 3: you're my age, you definitely had a crush on him.
- 18:04Speaker 3: So Christopher Atkins is an American actor. He had this
- 18:07Speaker 3: blonde hair and he starred in nineteen eighties The Blue
- 18:13Speaker 3: Lagoon with Brookshields. At the time, every teenager was like
- 18:17Speaker 3: watching this movie, But after watching the Brookshields documentary, I'm
- 18:21Speaker 3: like it was creepy, Like it was not appropriate. Blue
- 18:25Speaker 3: Lagoon is about two children who are shipwrecked on a
- 18:28Speaker 3: tropical island in the South Pacific with no adults to
- 18:31Speaker 3: guide them. The two make a simple life together, unaware
- 18:34Speaker 3: that sexual maturity will eventually intervene, Like they eventually have
- 18:37Speaker 3: a baby together, and like were they cousins, Like I
- 18:40Speaker 3: don't know, I don't want to speak incorrectly, but can
- 18:42Speaker 3: someone Like it was a little much and they were
- 18:45Speaker 3: like way too young to be Like I don't know.
- 18:47Speaker 3: The whole thing now looking back, I'm like, why did
- 18:49Speaker 3: I watch this? Paris is making the blue Lagoon reference
- 18:52Speaker 3: as Rory and Logan stole the yacht. He thinks they
- 18:54Speaker 3: want to run off together and have their own life
- 18:56Speaker 3: and no one to intervene. I'm not even sure if
- 18:59Speaker 3: that's right, like quite on the nose there, but I
- 19:02Speaker 3: don't know. Watch the Brookshields documentary.
- 19:05Speaker 1: Mm hmmmuh okay, Paris telling Laurel I that Rory can't
- 19:13Speaker 1: quit Yale. Paris. I need her to be at Yale.
- 19:16Speaker 1: Rory has been my only real competition since she showed
- 19:19Speaker 1: up at Chilton. She is the only one who ever
- 19:22Speaker 1: challenged me. She's a pace car. She's Bjorn Borg. Bjorn
- 19:25Speaker 1: Borg is a Swedish former number one tennis player between
- 19:29Speaker 1: seventy four and eighty one. Nineteen seventy four nineteen eighty
- 19:32Speaker 1: well he became the first man in the Open era

- 19:49Speaker 3: Was he did he have the big competition with Connor's
- 19:52Speaker 3: Jimmy Connor.
- 19:52Speaker 1: No, he well, yeah, but it was really McEnroe.
- 19:55Speaker 3: It was Macenroe. O.
- 19:56Speaker 1: It was mac and they had epic battles and tennis,
- 20:00Speaker 1: so it was it was so the Borg and McEnroe
- 20:05Speaker 1: finals in Wimbledon the US Open were classic.
- 20:10Speaker 3: In our text. So we obviously have like a group
- 20:13Speaker 3: text with all of us, and lately every time text
- 20:16Speaker 3: Scott something like can you do one o'clock and instead
- 20:19Speaker 3: of a thumbs up, he sends us a tennis ball?
- 20:22Speaker 4: Is it tennis or is it like.
