  Speaker 4: Well.
• 1:20
  Speaker 1: The weird thing is we we actually wrote and dedicated
• 1:23
  Speaker 1: that to Abby Chatfield as well. Oh yeah, yeah, shocking
• 1:26
  Speaker 1: perfect tennis. Just no way. I gotta say we did
• 1:31
  Speaker 1: shoehorn Rye of Bekina. I liked it. Yeah, but the pronunciation, yeah,
• 1:37
  Speaker 1: it's confusing a lot of people.
• 1:38
  Speaker 2: It is because I uh, you watch a match and
• 1:42
  Speaker 2: they're saying Rebeccna Rebeccaa.
• 1:44
  Speaker 1: I say Rebeccina, but rib Akina. People are saying, yeah.
• 1:48
  Speaker 1: Then the Channel nine promos say Rye Bukina. But I
• 1:51
  Speaker 1: think they did that before. They did the promos early before.
• 1:54
  Speaker 1: I think they realized their emphasis needs be in a
• 1:56
  Speaker 1: different place.
• 1:56
  Speaker 2: Will you think it's the end of the tournament and
• 1:58
  Speaker 2: they still haven't figured out of it to ride back and.
• 2:01
  Speaker 1: Look, what you gotta remember here is we're dealing with
• 2:03
  Speaker 1: Australians that live very far from the rest of the world.
• 2:07
  Speaker 1: Any name that is not something that they would hear
• 2:09
  Speaker 1: every day on the street. They're very confused. Jaden Davis,
• 2:13
  Speaker 1: Jayden Smith Smith And even there with Jaden, they're like,
• 2:17
  Speaker 1: is it Jedon or is it Jaden.
• 2:23
  Speaker 2: We went and met all the ball boys the other
• 2:25
  Speaker 2: day and girls, and there was a lot of Jaden's
• 2:28
  Speaker 2: in the room.
• 2:29
  Speaker 1: My best mate there was Jayden. He was the only friend.
• 2:31
  Speaker 1: The only ally I had in that whole.
• 2:33
  Speaker 2: Place was eights.
• 2:35
  Speaker 1: Yeah. There was a lot of Jadens. Yeah, I mean, yeah,
• 2:38
  Speaker 1: you're going to get a Jaden, one of the jad
• 2:40
  Speaker 1: But there was a Jaden I liked. If you're listening, Jayden,
• 2:42
  Speaker 1: you know who you are. We had a connection. Yeah,
• 2:45
  Speaker 1: he told me. He told me some secrets which I liked.
• 2:47
  Speaker 2: Oh my god, Yeah, you told them to keep a secret.
• 2:53
  Speaker 1: Yeah. I think that's a very fair code violation, very much.
• 2:57
  Speaker 4: So.
• 2:58
  Speaker 2: Look, it was a women's semi's final, semis finals, semi finals.
• 3:02
  Speaker 1: It was women's semi.
• 3:03
  Speaker 2: Finals day yesterday, and in keeping in the tradition of
• 3:08
  Speaker 2: the second week of this tournament, both straight sets victories.
• 3:12
  Speaker 1: But I do feel like one threatened to go the distance,
• 3:15
  Speaker 1: which is an exciting change. Before we get into it though,
• 3:18
  Speaker 1: I watch the match as always from down at the
• 3:21
  Speaker 1: beautiful Piper hed sec Bar or just down there. I
• 3:25
  Speaker 1: go down there alone most nights and just hang out
• 3:27

• 4:17
  Speaker 2: stinky fox.
• 4:18
  Speaker 4: Yeah.
• 4:18
  Speaker 1: Well, the only problem, the only problem they said they
• 4:22
  Speaker 1: had with it is that they've done all the printing
• 4:25
  Speaker 1: of their current advertising campaign for the year. Otherwise it
• 4:27
  Speaker 1: would be on the slope it up, slope it down
• 4:29

• 4:49
  Speaker 2: You drink some bubbles drink, you drink some Champagre drinks.
• 4:52
  Speaker 1: Yes, so should we get into it. Let's talk about
• 4:53
  Speaker 1: the women's semifinals yesterday.
• 4:55
  Speaker 2: All right, Well we're starting with the better match, which
• 4:59
  Speaker 2: was a jaz Pagola jpeg playing against Rebeccaa. I'm sticking
• 5:04
  Speaker 2: with that.
• 5:05
  Speaker 1: You're gonna stick with it fair enough and jpeg out,
• 5:07
  Speaker 1: which means no Americans left in the singles drawer. She
• 5:10
  Speaker 1: was the last great American. Hope. She couldn't handle the pressure.
• 5:14
  Speaker 1: I felt a bit sorry for her. She that was
• 5:17
  Speaker 1: the first game she's played under lights in an evening
• 5:19
  Speaker 1: session this tournament.
• 5:20
  Speaker 2: Is that true?
• 5:21
  Speaker 1: That's true? Look that up. And she hadn't dropped a
• 5:23
  Speaker 1: set coming in. Yeah, and then the lights threw her
• 5:27
  Speaker 1: and she was sleepy. She's not in bed by then.
• 5:31
  Speaker 1: But yes, she put up a good fight. The second
• 5:33
  Speaker 1: set went to a tie break, yep, and it looked
• 5:36
  Speaker 1: like we were going to get at that set. Man.
• 5:38
  Speaker 2: Finally a compelling set this week. I mean, after the
• 5:42
  Speaker 2: Zaverev teen match, I just don't think there's been a
• 5:45
  Speaker 2: set that's been that great. Maybe the first set in
• 5:48
  Speaker 2: dmon r Alcoraz.
• 5:49
  Speaker 1: Yeah, there's some great tennis in that.
• 5:51
  Speaker 2: Yeah, But this second set was a lot of tension,
• 5:55
  Speaker 2: a lot of set points, yeah, well match points for Rebeccaa.
• 6:00
  Speaker 2: She had match points at five to three, yeah, and
• 6:02
  Speaker 2: then didn't get those and then you just saw it
• 6:04
  Speaker 2: tighten up.
• 6:05
  Speaker 1: It's the stress gets to everyone. The pressure gets to everyone,
• 6:09
  Speaker 1: and I feel like the crowd is Look, I've never
• 6:11
  Speaker 1: once again We've brought this up a few times, I've
• 6:13
  Speaker 1: never played tennis at the level of a Grand Slam.
• 6:17
  Speaker 1: I'm not ruling it out, but I'm yet to do it.
• 6:19
  Speaker 1: But center court semi final, the world watching the crowd
• 6:23
  Speaker 1: energy is you can feel it in there. People tense up,
• 6:25
  Speaker 1: and I think that affects the place. You can feel it.
• 6:27
  Speaker 1: You can just see them. It's they don't go into
• 6:29
  Speaker 1: their shell, but you can see it kind of rattle them. Well,
• 6:32
  Speaker 1: the crowd, I think, like us just wanted a match,
• 6:35
  Speaker 1: you know, yeah, yeah, yeah, the crowd's like coming. You
• 6:38
  Speaker 1: don't know how much these tickets got come on and the.
• 6:41
  Speaker 2: Thing is like it seemed like we were going to
• 6:43
  Speaker 2: get a third te for a lot of that Pagola
• 6:46
  Speaker 2: had a couple set points, couldn't convert.
• 6:47
  Speaker 1: Couldn't convert, and then but yeah, the game of momentum.
• 6:50
  Speaker 1: I've always said that, but I just always said that.
• 6:52
  Speaker 2: How much Rebecca and a like tightened up her forehand
• 6:56
  Speaker 2: went missing, I was convinced it'd be a third set.
• 6:59
  Speaker 2: I was finally, I just totally invested, And because for
• 7:03
  Speaker 2: most of the match, like the other women's semi final,
• 7:06
  Speaker 2: it just seemed like a foregone conclusion. You know, the
• 7:09
  Speaker 2: other player looked just beat from the get go, and
• 7:12
  Speaker 2: then when it started to get good, I really at
• 7:15
  Speaker 2: a high hose. But still an awesome set, still a
• 7:17
  Speaker 2: great set. Yeah, and I think both. You know that
• 7:20
  Speaker 2: old Mike Tyson quote everyone's got a plan.
• 7:22
  Speaker 1: To they get hit. I use that every every possible
• 7:25
  Speaker 1: chance I get. It doesn't matter what's happening. I'll be
• 7:27
  Speaker 1: cut off in traffic. I'll be like, everyone's going to
• 7:29
  Speaker 1: plan until they get hit. Punching the face, yeah, punch
• 7:31
  Speaker 1: in the face. No, it's till I get hit. Didn't
• 7:33
  Speaker 1: or punched in the face.
• 7:33
  Speaker 2: Yeah, that's wway better than the way you said it.
• 7:35
  Speaker 1: Yeah you haven't been punched in the faith. Oh yeah, yeah,
• 7:40
  Speaker 1: howd you react the plan go out the window? No,
• 7:43
  Speaker 1: he stuck to the plant.
• 7:44
  Speaker 2: I stuck to the plan and I beat that kid.
• 7:51
  Speaker 1: You know he deserved it, he did. I Yeah. But
• 7:54
  Speaker 1: both matches was like this power over finesse, which I
• 7:58
  Speaker 1: mean totally, which does set up quite interesting final, which
• 8:02
  Speaker 1: is the two power hitters. We've got Sablanca and Rebeccaha,
• 8:06
  Speaker 1: And I feel like it's going to be We're just
• 8:08
  Speaker 1: going to stand at the baseline and just try to
• 8:11
  Speaker 1: hit the ball as out as we can. Awesome, so good.
• 8:13
  Speaker 1: I know, I don't want to see running. I don't
• 8:15
  Speaker 1: want to see shot. Let's just try to hit winners
• 8:18
  Speaker 1: that beat the body.
• 8:18
  Speaker 2: But also their head to head I think, is dad
• 8:21
  Speaker 2: even at this point.
• 8:23
  Speaker 1: I could be wrong, yeah on that.
• 8:25
  Speaker 2: But and they kind of go back and forth like
• 8:27
  Speaker 2: no one has taken a bunch of consecutive matches, and
• 8:31
  Speaker 2: they played in the twenty twenty three I was open five.
• 8:33
  Speaker 1: That's true. Yes, awesome match.
• 8:35
  Speaker 5: Totally.
• 8:36
  Speaker 1: Neither have lost a set, I believe so far this tournament.
• 8:39
  Speaker 2: So are we building in both sides of the draw
• 8:42
  Speaker 2: towards awesome for now? Dude?
• 8:43
  Speaker 1: And that is a great that's a great hypothetical, right,
• 8:46
  Speaker 1: not trying to put a positive spin on this, but
• 8:48
  Speaker 1: if at the start of the tournament you're like, you're
• 8:50
  Speaker 1: going to have a slightly it's still going to be entertaining,
• 8:52
  Speaker 1: but a slightly boring Week two. There's going to be
• 8:55
  Speaker 1: a lot of predictable matches, a lot of straight sets.
• 8:57
  Speaker 1: But if it means you get too absolutely the blockbuster
• 9:01
  Speaker 1: historical close finals, do you take it? I think you do, yeah,
• 9:05
  Speaker 1: unless you you know, only had tickets for you know,
• 9:08
  Speaker 1: the quarterfinals. But everyone else is like absolutely.
• 9:11
  Speaker 2: I'm saying the tournament is going to stick the landing
• 9:13
  Speaker 2: with these matches.
• 9:14
  Speaker 1: I think so.
• 9:15
  Speaker 2: And we're going to see some barn storms.
• 9:16
  Speaker 1: And barn stormers. Yeah, and I'll be out the front
• 9:20
  Speaker 1: begging to get in.
• 9:26
  Speaker 2: And the sable Anca Spidelina match.
• 9:29
  Speaker 1: Has the big going on in this even though it
• 9:30
  Speaker 1: wasn't really close.
• 9:32
  Speaker 2: Neither had dropped to set all tournament, so like everyone
• 9:36
  Speaker 2: is saying, Sina, this is her chance, She's coming in,
• 9:38
  Speaker 2: even though her head to head was she was one
• 9:41
  Speaker 2: in five going in.
• 9:43
  Speaker 1: Yeah, just to break that the mental kind of struggle
• 9:46
  Speaker 1: to get through that you've got nothing to fall back on.
• 9:48
  Speaker 2: No, but the I think she was doomed once the
• 9:51
  Speaker 2: hindrance call happened.
• 9:53
  Speaker 1: The grunt, yeah, stop dance. Wow, I've never heard the
• 10:02
  Speaker 1: word grunt in popular media so often.
• 10:05
  Speaker 2: Well, I have a Sablenca grunt cuede up here. So
• 10:07
  Speaker 2: this is what her usual grunt is on a big
• 10:09
  Speaker 2: forehead in her backhand.
• 10:12
  Speaker 1: Okay, sounds good extended. Can you play it again? Yeah? Okay.
• 10:18
  Speaker 1: So I'm not used to hearing women kind of make
• 10:20
  Speaker 1: noises like that. So oh no, no, no, no, no.
• 10:23
  Speaker 1: What are you used to just silence and like a no,
• 10:27
  Speaker 1: not that one? That one? Do you have a woman
• 10:30
  Speaker 1: saying it's normal? It happens all the time. It's kind
• 10:34
  Speaker 1: of normally what I used to hear it. Don't worry
• 10:35
  Speaker 1: about it, Yeah, don't worry about it.
• 10:37
  Speaker 5: It's fine.
• 10:38
  Speaker 2: I don't have that cute up. Yeah.
• 10:39
  Speaker 1: Do you want a cup of tea?
• 10:40
  Speaker 4: Yeah?
• 10:41
  Speaker 1: That one?
• 10:41
  Speaker 2: Are you?
• 10:42
  Speaker 1: Let's do something different. I'll get the tissues. Ah the
• 10:48
  Speaker 1: hindrance call, so I play. It's crazy. By the way,
• 10:51
  Speaker 1: do you think it was deserved? Look, I don't know
• 10:52
  Speaker 1: if it was deserved or not, but it kind of
• 10:54
  Speaker 1: really came. I was like, what it came from left field? Watching,
• 10:58
  Speaker 1: but I mean, maybe it is a tactic. I didn't
• 11:00
  Speaker 1: think it was kind of like argued that it was
• 11:02
  Speaker 1: like a longer grunt.
• 11:04
  Speaker 4: No.
• 11:05
  Speaker 2: I think the problem was that it was a grunt,
• 11:08
  Speaker 2: a pause, and then a sound. If she does that
• 11:10
  Speaker 2: continuous grunt like she did there and people are just
• 11:13
  Speaker 2: acclimated to it.
• 11:14
  Speaker 1: It's fine.
• 11:15
  Speaker 2: She gets away with it, get away with the grunt
• 11:16
  Speaker 2: because she thought the ball was going out, so she
• 11:19
  Speaker 2: grunts and then pause and then like a oh shit,
• 11:22
  Speaker 2: it's going out. Sound. Well, Sarah, should I attempt it?
• 11:25
  Speaker 1: I mean, of course, I mean I didn't know you
• 11:27
  Speaker 1: were gearing up towards that. Of course, what am I
• 11:29
  Speaker 1: even talking for? Can you grunt? Please? Well?
• 11:32
  Speaker 2: I think it was like, so we heard her grunt
• 11:34
  Speaker 2: before there, I'll play it one more time.
• 11:37
  Speaker 1: So instead it was that. But then so it was, ah, well, no, okay,
• 11:45
  Speaker 1: I'm team Sablanca here. Because if you're in that middle
• 11:48
  Speaker 1: of that grunt and it's kind of sort of fizzling
• 11:51
  Speaker 1: out and then maybe you just have a dry throat.
• 11:54
  Speaker 1: You're playing a game with tennis or something, so the
• 11:56
  Speaker 1: grunt might naturally stop, but you're still mid. It's hard
• 11:59
  Speaker 1: to stop mid grunt, so there might be just a
• 12:01
  Speaker 1: dip in the decibels and then the grunt continues, So
• 12:04
  Speaker 1: for her it feels like a continuous grunt. But for
• 12:06
  Speaker 1: everyone else in there, they're hearing two separate grunts.
• 12:09
  Speaker 2: No, I think you're wrong here. We're gonna get deep
• 12:12
  Speaker 2: in the weeds of grunt debate. Absolutely, but no, the
• 12:16
  Speaker 2: pause implies the extended the oh shit, it's going out
• 12:23
  Speaker 2: noise that she must Yeah, it's vitelinus to let to
• 12:26
  Speaker 2: play on the ball.
• 12:26
  Speaker 1: Yeah, and then therefore it's hindrance. Yeah. Well, is there
• 12:30
  Speaker 1: like in the laws of tennis, like an audio accompaniment
• 12:34
  Speaker 1: to the PDF for what are acceptable grunts?
• 12:37
  Speaker 4: Yeah?
• 12:38
  Speaker 2: Well, it's it's all up to the discretion of the
• 12:41
  Speaker 2: chair umpire in terms of when are you going to
• 12:43
  Speaker 2: start calling this.
• 12:44
  Speaker 1: Famously, Azarenka had a crazy grunt yeah.
• 12:48
  Speaker 2: Yeah, and they I think would occasionally call her out
• 12:52
  Speaker 2: on it. And then there's the debate if they're not
• 12:54
  Speaker 2: doing it in warm up, like what it's not necessary
• 12:56
  Speaker 2: to their game?
• 12:57
  Speaker 1: I mean, yeah, if you could have a grunt coach, know,
• 13:00
  Speaker 1: these teams are getting bigger and bigger, you bring someone
• 13:02
  Speaker 1: in to just work for like solely on your grunt,
• 13:05
  Speaker 1: and you could have a variety of different grunts that
• 13:07
  Speaker 1: mean different things and you could put opponents.
• 13:10
  Speaker 2: Off, right, So you think like there's a grunt language.
• 13:13
  Speaker 1: There's a grunt language. Absolutely, yeah, kind of like if
• 13:15
  Speaker 1: you ever go to Southeast Asia with the horns, the
• 13:17
  Speaker 1: horn the beeps in the traffic mean different things.
• 13:19
  Speaker 2: Well, we all have a difference beep dialect if you will.
• 13:22
  Speaker 1: Like there's a friendly like hey, yeah, that means like
• 13:27
  Speaker 1: I'm going to kill you. Yeah, yeah, yeah I should die. Yeah,
• 13:30
  Speaker 1: you should die. Exactly, you should die. I mean it's fascinating.
• 13:34
  Speaker 4: It was.
• 13:34
  Speaker 1: I mean the roof was open as well, was it. Yeah,
• 13:37
  Speaker 1: well it would have went but worse if it was
• 13:38
  Speaker 1: closed because crap the noise bouncing around. Yes, So just
• 13:41
  Speaker 1: think about that.
• 13:42
  Speaker 2: And that grunt chat was brought to you by Prime
• 13:45
  Speaker 2: Growing Time. Prime Growing Time grunted up with Piper Height.
• 13:50
  Speaker 1: So yeah, I was going to say, do we have
• 13:51
  Speaker 1: a sponsor a Prime and groin time. Piper Hearts had
• 13:53
  Speaker 1: come to the table sensational.
• 13:55
  Speaker 2: But I think the Hindreds call Pisto her off and
• 13:59
  Speaker 2: she was then lit a fire under Sablanca because the
• 14:02
  Speaker 2: first couple games were pretty tight and she meant boom.
• 14:05
  Speaker 2: Then she went ballistic and absolutely just started hammering the ball,
• 14:08
  Speaker 2: walloping every points.
• 14:11
  Speaker 1: Played well, like I thought, there's some good rallies, like
• 14:13
  Speaker 1: some paler hitting on her end as well, but it
• 14:14
  Speaker 1: just wasn't enough.
• 14:16
  Speaker 2: Yeah, and I think Sabalanca best at redirecting a serve
• 14:19
  Speaker 2: out wide and then the return to her forehand and
• 14:22
  Speaker 2: then a down the line chart. Yeah, she's just in
• 14:25
  Speaker 2: a league of her own with that.
• 14:27
  Speaker 1: Also, you know, no handshake, you would tell me off
• 14:29
  Speaker 1: a you wanted to dive into the political kind of
• 14:32
  Speaker 1: geopolitical reasons behind that, Mike, Do you want to take
• 14:34
  Speaker 1: it away now? Well, they don't shake hands. They don't
• 14:37
  Speaker 1: shake hands.
• 14:37
  Speaker 2: Ukrainian players don't shake hands with Russian players. Yeah, for
• 14:41
  Speaker 2: clear obvious reasons. Right, But the tournament will put a
• 14:45
  Speaker 2: disclaimer up that says that the conclusion of the match
• 14:48
  Speaker 2: there will be no handshake between the players. We appreciate
• 14:50
  Speaker 2: your respect for both athletes during and following the match.
• 14:53
  Speaker 2: All well and good totally, but then they in this match,
• 14:57
  Speaker 2: they played it when I believe Sabolanca was five to
• 15:00
  Speaker 2: two in the second set, so it Subida.
• 15:04
  Speaker 1: Lena looks up and sees that, yeah them. When I
• 15:08
  Speaker 1: was watching, the commentator did say, she goes, yeah that
• 15:10
  Speaker 1: we know handshake. I'm like, well, there's still three points.
• 15:13
  Speaker 1: Can have a huge comeback on our hands. Well, so
• 15:15
  Speaker 1: I don't understand why people get so annoyed about the
• 15:17
  Speaker 1: hand It's just a handshake. People are like desperate, desperate
• 15:21
  Speaker 1: to see them touch hands at the end of the game.
• 15:23
  Speaker 1: It's like, what does it matter, doesn't change anything. I
• 15:26
  Speaker 1: love the handshake. You do, I will you'll, you will highlight,
• 15:29
  Speaker 1: you'll fast food, fast forward, the highlights for the handshake.
• 15:31
  Speaker 2: If I think the match is going to be just
• 15:34
  Speaker 2: done and there's no comeback on the cards, Yeah, the
• 15:37
  Speaker 2: handshake often reveals a lot about the player's feelings towards
• 15:41
  Speaker 2: each other.
• 15:42
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 15:43
  Speaker 2: We had a very testy one last week between Cristea
• 15:48
  Speaker 2: and Osaka.
• 15:48
  Speaker 1: Yeah, well that there was some heated moments in that match,
• 15:51
  Speaker 1: of course. Yeah.
• 15:52
  Speaker 2: So I mean I think, yeah, especially if something happens
• 15:55
  Speaker 2: during the match, the handshake can be a very telling indication.
• 15:57
  Speaker 1: Do you think it's like, you go handshake? Is you
• 16:00
  Speaker 1: like options of handshakes? You can go, you can just
• 16:02
  Speaker 1: go the quick handshake. You're barely touching done, go up
• 16:06
  Speaker 1: to the chair, umpire, shake hands. You can go handshake,
• 16:09
  Speaker 1: lean in, say something like there's been beef. You're trying
• 16:11
  Speaker 1: to rectify something or or argue your position well.
• 16:14
  Speaker 2: As your Varenka said the whole garoun stop being a
• 16:17
  Speaker 2: big baby.
• 16:17
  Speaker 1: That's at yea, that's a good handshake, or the love
• 16:21
  Speaker 1: you handshake, and then going for the big, deep seated
• 16:24
  Speaker 1: hug French case. Yeah you whisper in their ear. I
• 16:26
  Speaker 1: got you again, suck it.
• 16:28
  Speaker 2: Oh dude, he did Rivalry Tennis edition.
• 16:30
  Speaker 1: Oh could we get the IP for that? We can
• 16:35
  Speaker 1: sell that immediately. Yeah. So the final Rebeccena versus Sabolenca.
• 16:40
  Speaker 1: Who do you got? I think Sabrilnca. I think she
• 16:43
  Speaker 1: might be hungry from last year. Yeah, but then I
• 16:46
  Speaker 1: guess the same could be sented for Rebeccaha looking to
• 16:49
  Speaker 1: get some revenge. So I like, I mean, I'm just
• 16:51
  Speaker 1: actually excited. I legit think we're going to have a
• 16:53
  Speaker 1: three set epic. Yeah, and I don't know, like I
• 16:57
  Speaker 1: don't know, I think it's anyone's anyone's match.
• 16:59
  Speaker 2: Okay, I mean yeah, a three set epic would be fantastic,
• 17:03
  Speaker 2: Like I said, their twenty twenty three match was amazing. Yeah,
• 17:06
  Speaker 2: I'm leaning Rebeccena. She was solid at the end of
• 17:11
  Speaker 2: last year, winning tournaments and stuff. So she's come into
• 17:14
  Speaker 2: this year with that form and I think throughout the
• 17:17
  Speaker 2: tournament she's been the better player okay, and she's had
• 17:21
  Speaker 2: a real statement win against Iagashavontek the other day.
• 17:26
  Speaker 1: This room is suffering. I forgot to say that.
• 17:30
  Speaker 2: Right to us at podlabor at toss dot com dot au.
• 17:33
  Speaker 2: Give us all your suggestions and thoughts and feedback, give
• 17:38

• 18:31
  Speaker 1: I think a bit of Aussie spirit will get that done.
• 18:33
  Speaker 1: Channel a bit of you know, the boys on the
• 18:36
  Speaker 1: beach and Gallipoli. We can we can get that one
• 18:37
  Speaker 1: across the line. Oh well, yeah, I might go down
• 18:40
  Speaker 1: there and give them a little pre match pep up.
• 18:43
  Speaker 2: Okay, what what's the fiery speech that you've given.
• 18:46
  Speaker 1: I'm gonna say, God, this country has been through a lot.
• 18:52
  Speaker 1: We've been for a lot. Things have happened where we
• 18:57
  Speaker 1: need a leader. We need someone to stand up, and
• 19:00
  Speaker 1: it's you, guys. You need to unite everyone together. And
• 19:04
  Speaker 1: the only way you can do that is if you
• 19:05
  Speaker 1: beat the crap out of these two that once an American.
• 19:09
  Speaker 1: I don't this English and this American guy get down
• 19:13
  Speaker 1: there and do us proud? All right? Do you think
• 19:15
  Speaker 1: that would pump them up? Errol stopped crying. It's fine, mate,
• 19:21
  Speaker 1: I get it. It's emotional. The English dropped us on
• 19:25
  Speaker 1: the wrong beach, do you remember that?
• 19:27
  Speaker 2: But the Americans like you guys, you know you worship
• 19:30
  Speaker 2: yours everything totally.
• 19:32
  Speaker 1: That's it.
• 19:32
  Speaker 2: Orcust Forever and Kodeki and peers Australians through and the
• 19:38
  Speaker 2: mix doubles final. So the Australians still, you know, representing
• 19:43
  Speaker 2: the country.

  Speaker 1: Well, it's good. That's important. Double the team spirit, it's
• 19:46
  Speaker 1: what we do. Well yeah, well let's get into the
• 19:50
  Speaker 1: headline calls. Wow, all right, this is big. The production value,
• 19:59
  Speaker 1: he never amaze me, right, it's amazing. How can we
• 20:03
  Speaker 1: afford all of this?
• 20:04
  Speaker 2: This is like a James Cameron production?
• 20:06
  Speaker 1: It is absolutely They're all dressed in blue.
• 20:09
  Speaker 2: We should have spider camera.
• 20:11
  Speaker 1: That would be great. Yeah, dropping down from the roof,
• 20:13
  Speaker 1: just getting right under my nostril and then just piping
• 20:15
  Speaker 1: back up to the ceiling.
• 20:17
  Speaker 2: This is huge though.
• 20:18
  Speaker 1: Serena Williams is maybe coming back. She went on the
• 20:23
  Speaker 1: Today Show in America. I never miss it. It's my
• 20:26
  Speaker 1: wake up show of choice. I have to watch it
• 20:27
  Speaker 1: at ten pm over here. But it's fine, I get it.
• 20:30
  Speaker 1: And she was talking about she might be well. She
• 20:32
  Speaker 1: was asked whether she's going to come back, and she
• 20:34
  Speaker 1: didn't say yes. She didn't say no, and she was
• 20:36
  Speaker 1: a bit sheepish.
• 20:37
  Speaker 4: Are you returning to professional tennis.
• 20:39
  Speaker 5: I mean, really, are you asking this on the Today Show?
• 20:41
  Speaker 4: Yes?
• 20:42
  Speaker 5: I am God, they kill me if I didn't.
• 20:44
  Speaker 1: Tennis Nation, all your.
• 20:45
  Speaker 5: Fads goodness, yeah, oh my goodness.
• 20:48
  Speaker 4: Is that a no? Is that a no?
• 20:50
  Speaker 5: Well, now you're making me feel like you're handless? Said,
• 20:53
  Speaker 5: are labing?
• 20:53
  Speaker 1: This is distracted?
• 20:54
  Speaker 5: Okay, you didn't say yes or no.
• 20:59
  Speaker 1: I'm just having fun and enjoying my life right now.
• 21:02
  Speaker 1: I think she's coming back.
• 21:03
  Speaker 2: Yeah. Well, the fact that she was trying to be
• 21:06
  Speaker 2: as ambiguous as possible about it, and she's in the
• 21:10
  Speaker 2: drug test. Why would you be in the drug testing
• 21:12
  Speaker 2: protocol if you had no.
• 21:13
  Speaker 1: Unless you just wanted everyone to know you'll clean. Yeah,
• 21:16
  Speaker 1: maybe she's got some other questions going on in her life.
• 21:19
  Speaker 1: She can be like see look, yeah, look, I don't know.
• 21:22
  Speaker 1: Would you want to see Serena come back? Of course?
• 21:24
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean Venus just played. She should have won
• 21:27
  Speaker 2: that first round match at the start of the tournament,
• 21:30
  Speaker 2: was up four zero and the total said, and then
• 21:32
  Speaker 2: you know, I.
• 21:33
  Speaker 1: Mean, Serena coming back means we could probably get her
• 21:35
  Speaker 1: on the pod.
• 21:36
  Speaker 2: How good would Sablenka Serena be? Oh yeah, that's two
• 21:39
  Speaker 2: of the hardest hitters of all time.
• 21:41
  Speaker 1: Yeah, but I guess you're not. I guess. Look, you're
• 21:43
  Speaker 1: never going to get prime Serena anymore. Like she's moved
• 21:45
  Speaker 1: on to a different phase of her life. But what
• 21:47
  Speaker 1: a spectacle. It'd be fantastic to go and see.
• 21:50
  Speaker 2: Yeah, well, I mean And they asked Sablenka about it. Yeah,
• 21:53
  Speaker 2: you know, they're like, what do you think about Serena
• 21:54
  Speaker 2: coming back? And she was like, if it makes her happy.
• 21:58
  Speaker 1: I like that she has to come back. That's what
• 22:01
  Speaker 1: she wants to do.
• 22:02
  Speaker 2: I mean, I'd be pumped.
• 22:03
  Speaker 1: Man. It would be good for tennis. It'd be good
• 22:05
  Speaker 1: for everyone. Really, more old players should come back.
• 22:08
  Speaker 2: Who, like, who do you think?
• 22:09
  Speaker 4: You know?
• 22:10
  Speaker 1: I feel probably you would watch it. Get him out
• 22:14
  Speaker 1: there on you know, court twenty in the qualifying week
• 22:17
  Speaker 1: forty degree Melbourne. He yeah, you can do it, right?
• 22:20
  Speaker 1: How would he go? How would he go facing down
• 22:24
  Speaker 1: a Ben Shelton s? Yeah, like, well, you know, what
• 22:27
  Speaker 1: did you say on the podcast yesterday? The ball would
• 22:28
  Speaker 1: go through him, through his body. Yeah, I think it
• 22:31
  Speaker 1: could be good night.
• 22:32
  Speaker 2: For My name is blue Black Blue Black blue blick.
• 22:45
  Speaker 1: All right.
• 22:45
  Speaker 2: Quick predictions for the men's semi final by the time
• 22:49
  Speaker 2: this is out, I think they would have already happened,
• 22:51
  Speaker 2: or maybe Sinner Djokovic is an.
• 22:53
  Speaker 1: Epic and yeah could go. Yeah, it's one am in
• 22:55
  Speaker 1: the morning, you're loving it.
• 22:56
  Speaker 2: Yeah, what is Mike?
• 22:57
  Speaker 1: What am I can say? Think about that? Predictions? You
• 23:00
  Speaker 1: want mineing, you want to go first.
• 23:02
  Speaker 2: Okay, I'll go first. I think we'll get an Alkoraz
• 23:04
  Speaker 2: Center final. But I think hopefully both matches got to
• 23:09
  Speaker 2: four sets.
• 23:10
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I like four sets for the Alcoraz game, I think,
• 23:14
  Speaker 1: And I also think at a little added prediction, I
• 23:16
  Speaker 1: think he gets some big laughs in the postmatch interview
• 23:19
  Speaker 1: with the crowd. I think that's exciting. I think Sinner
• 23:21
  Speaker 1: gets it done over Djokovic okay, but continues looking like
• 23:25
  Speaker 1: a sick Victorian child. Oh yeah, surprising everyone, and the
• 23:29
  Speaker 1: commentators will make a lot of fuss about it. They'll
• 23:32
  Speaker 1: be like, he's fading, but.
• 23:33
  Speaker 2: Nahna, he's coming it.
• 23:35
  Speaker 4: Yeah.
• 23:36
  Speaker 2: I mean other predictions. I think zwav wear's up to
• 23:40
  Speaker 2: eight chains.
• 23:40
  Speaker 1: I love that eight chains, and then there might be
• 23:43
  Speaker 1: talk that that contributed to his downfall, the weight of
• 23:47
  Speaker 1: the eight chains held him back potentially, oh yeah.
• 23:50
  Speaker 2: And then in the Djokovic Center match, Djokovic has three
• 23:56
  Speaker 2: negative interactions.
• 23:57
  Speaker 1: With the crowd yep and maybe one with the chair umpire,
• 24:02
  Speaker 1: and at one point he reveals his foot, his blistered foot.
• 24:05
  Speaker 1: Oh yeah, how many both blistered? Blistered. Now we're getting somewhere.
• 24:09
  Speaker 1: I'm going to say the fourteen blisters.
• 24:11
  Speaker 2: Fourteen blisters. You've heard it here first on Blister.
• 24:15
  Speaker 1: Watter, fantastic blister watch. Yes, don't get that in other
• 24:18
  Speaker 1: tennis media. Do you blister watch?
• 24:20
  Speaker 4: Now?
• 24:21

• 24:30
  Speaker 1: of kind of like I feel like there's a powerful
• 24:34
  Speaker 1: vibe around him. I've also got my texture ready to
• 24:37
  Speaker 1: write something on his face.
• 24:38
  Speaker 2: Well you should say who he is?
• 24:39
  Speaker 1: Oh, well, yeah, so he's He's Arena Sabllanca's strength and

• 25:04
  Speaker 1: high pressure situations. That's where he kind of excels in.
• 25:07
  Speaker 1: And you know, this podcast is as high pressure as
• 25:09
  Speaker 1: it gets, and any tips that we can have to
• 25:11
  Speaker 1: improve our performance will be all easeful.

• 27:28
  Speaker 2: The Seahawks are in the Super Peper Bowl, you know,
• 27:31
  Speaker 2: not bad as well, you know, why not?
• 27:32
  Speaker 5: Let's go baby, Oh.
• 27:35
  Speaker 1: My god, don't stop talking about American football with Yeah.
• 27:38
  Speaker 1: Changed the name of the podcast immediately. So how did
• 27:42
  Speaker 1: you come to work with arena? And your backgrounds in
• 27:46
  Speaker 1: m m A Is that correct? The original background A.
• 27:48
  Speaker 5: Lot of things jus judo, A lot of rested grappling
• 27:51
  Speaker 5: type thing I did since I was you know, could
• 27:53
  Speaker 5: walk basically. Yeah, I mean, And as far as professional,
• 27:57
  Speaker 5: I worked a number of sports, you know, as far
• 27:58
  Speaker 5: as allied health like sage, physio strength conditioning, did a
• 28:03
  Speaker 5: lot of neuroscience study all that kind of saff a
• 28:04
  Speaker 5: little bit of everything. But my own personal sport would
• 28:07
  Speaker 5: be more Yeah, throwing in choking people is more exciting.
• 28:10
  Speaker 2: Hell yeah, are you teaching an arena? Some uh like
• 28:13
  Speaker 2: rear naked chokehold.
• 28:14
  Speaker 4: Yeah.
• 28:15
  Speaker 5: Well, you know there's a rule also, like you don't
• 28:17
  Speaker 5: want to teach your you know, potential adversaries, you know,
• 28:20
  Speaker 5: like enemies too much because you know you've got to
• 28:23
  Speaker 5: keep it safe, you know, just using it against us,
• 28:25
  Speaker 5: you know.
• 28:25
  Speaker 1: So well that's it gets like you see start yelling
• 28:28
  Speaker 1: at like her team sometimes and you're in there, like
• 28:31
  Speaker 1: if you had told us some stuff she mod turn it.
• 28:33
  Speaker 5: I mean, you never know. I mean we've I've implemented
• 28:35
  Speaker 5: a lot of like modified versions of certain things just
• 28:37
  Speaker 5: for like body awareness and really good like core strength
• 28:40
  Speaker 5: and coordination. But yeah, I mean even when she's yelling,
• 28:43
  Speaker 5: it's not really like at us. It's just like yelling
• 28:45
  Speaker 5: to get some stuff out. And sometimes it's like completely irrational.
• 28:48
  Speaker 5: Sometimes it makes sense, and sometimes we would do it
• 28:50
  Speaker 5: back at her just to make her, you know, get
• 28:51
  Speaker 5: her fired up a little bit.
• 28:52
  Speaker 1: When they bring you when I play it brings you
• 28:54
  Speaker 1: into the team, do they say what you're signing up to?
• 28:56
  Speaker 1: Get yo at?
• 28:57
  Speaker 5: Occasionally went Well, I mean I'm usually response for a
• 29:00
  Speaker 5: lot of the bringing people in and doing like who
• 29:02
  Speaker 5: comes and goes and how we kind of manage all that.
• 29:04
  Speaker 5: But I mean, yeah, there's usually some conversations on like
• 29:07
  Speaker 5: sort of you know, expectations on both ends, you know,
• 29:09
  Speaker 5: as well as how you behave and when do what
• 29:11
  Speaker 5: and you know, pet peeves of you know the group,
• 29:14
  Speaker 5: because I think that to me, the most important thing
• 29:16
  Speaker 5: is that environment, you know, the intern your internal environment,
• 29:18
  Speaker 5: but also your external environment. So just you know, I
• 29:20
  Speaker 5: look at my role a lot of making sure we
• 29:22
  Speaker 5: have the right people doing the right thing at the
• 29:23
  Speaker 5: right time. So it's just about having the right people
• 29:25
  Speaker 5: in the right combination. And there'll be different skill sets
• 29:28
  Speaker 5: that will be prioritized at different times, but also different
• 29:30
  Speaker 5: personalities that might need to be around her more or
• 29:33
  Speaker 5: less at certain times.
• 29:34
  Speaker 1: We could implement that without team he in mind, surround
• 29:38
  Speaker 1: ourselves with the right people.
• 29:40
  Speaker 5: Yeah, I mean, come on, guys, you want to do
• 29:42
  Speaker 5: some do some jiu jitsu?
• 29:45
  Speaker 1: Yeah, make him tap out.
• 29:49
  Speaker 2: I want to say, yeah, yeah, are you Are you
• 29:51
  Speaker 2: in the on court like coaches hub you see yeah,
• 29:54
  Speaker 2: of course, see, of course. Yeah. Do you love that
• 29:56
  Speaker 2: it's where it is now? Or did you prefer the seats?
• 29:59
  Speaker 5: I mean, should chose not to be down there? It
• 30:01
  Speaker 5: was way more exposed to I think this year they
• 30:02
  Speaker 5: got some cover.
• 30:03
  Speaker 1: Yeah, and you kind of you're kind of a bit
• 30:05
  Speaker 1: more in the corner like yas year.
• 30:06
  Speaker 5: Was a little bit like whoa. And the reason we
• 30:08
  Speaker 5: didn't do it last year is that, you know, the
• 30:10
  Speaker 5: way we look as we're team and there's other members
• 30:12
  Speaker 5: of our team, and so we didn't really want to
• 30:13
  Speaker 5: split it up, you know what I mean, it didn't
• 30:15
  Speaker 5: seem right. Also for Arena, she needs to have one
• 30:17
  Speaker 5: place to focus, one voice, one sort of place to
• 30:19
  Speaker 5: look and not having to go back and forth. But
• 30:21
  Speaker 5: this year, we we talked about it. We had to,
• 30:23
  Speaker 5: you know, figure who could be down in the box
• 30:25
  Speaker 5: and who'd be the ideal people. So obviously Anton myself
• 30:27
  Speaker 5: were like the core group of guys. George is her
• 30:29
  Speaker 5: her we called boyfriend partner, you know future you never
• 30:34
  Speaker 5: know what happens next. We were in the golfp and yeah,
• 30:39
  Speaker 5: and then of course Max who's been you know, coming
• 30:41
  Speaker 5: helping us coaching as well. So yeah, that was like
• 30:43
  Speaker 5: the core group that needed to be on the court.
• 30:44
  Speaker 5: And we're also the ones that you know, we know
• 30:46
  Speaker 5: how to sort of manage the energy of the of
• 30:49
  Speaker 5: what's going on to keep her, you know, where she
• 30:51
  Speaker 5: needs to be.
• 30:52
  Speaker 1: Yeah, what's your take on the Hindrance call from last.
• 30:55
  Speaker 5: Yeah, I mean I did think it was a little
• 30:57
  Speaker 5: bit weird. It was just like I mean, I think
• 30:59
  Speaker 5: the thing is this is that it's it's not something
• 31:02
  Speaker 5: that how would I put it. She does this all
• 31:04
  Speaker 5: the time, like when she kind of hits funny shit,
• 31:06
  Speaker 5: like the way she exhales and the noise she makes,
• 31:08
  Speaker 5: you can tell like if she felt good, if it
• 31:10
  Speaker 5: was going to go fast, if it was like oh,
• 31:12
  Speaker 5: like you know. So she always kind of has these
• 31:14
  Speaker 5: different sounds she makes based on like how she felt
• 31:16
  Speaker 5: with a shot or what she was doing. And it
• 31:18
  Speaker 5: wasn't really I mean I didn't go back and watch it.
• 31:21
  Speaker 5: I didn't really care what happened and moved on. She
• 31:23
  Speaker 5: used it as some sort of fuel. Yeah, And that's
• 31:27
  Speaker 5: and that's the thing sometimes that we do Sometimes we
• 31:29
  Speaker 5: need to have her a bit more o roused, or
• 31:30
  Speaker 5: sometimes you need to do something that kind of gets
• 31:32
  Speaker 5: in her head and gets ther irritated, because sometimes it's
• 31:34
  Speaker 5: like for her, she needs a little bit of a
• 31:36
  Speaker 5: spark sometimes, so she gets a little bit focus on
• 31:38
  Speaker 5: the wrong target or get a little bit her arousal
• 31:39
  Speaker 5: level drops down a little bit too much. For what
• 31:41
  Speaker 5: she needs to do to perform her best. Then you know,
• 31:43
  Speaker 5: like you said, her kind of yelling either at the
• 31:45
  Speaker 5: team or just yelling out loud. Sometimes we'll say something
• 31:48
  Speaker 5: we know is going to probably irritate her, but you
• 31:49
  Speaker 5: know what, that's going to get the best out of
• 31:51
  Speaker 5: her because it's going to like give her a little
• 31:52
  Speaker 5: bit of a boost and so okay.
• 31:53
  Speaker 1: Yeah, whatever she has to do. For example, she often
• 31:57
  Speaker 1: will be rotting things on your head.
• 32:00
  Speaker 5: Ye yeah, now this year is the my face on
• 32:02
  Speaker 5: your face?
• 32:03
  Speaker 1: Yeah, so you have no say She's like, this is
• 32:05
  Speaker 1: what I need to do. We have any vision?
• 32:06
  Speaker 2: I think we do have some vision. Yeah, this is
• 32:09
  Speaker 2: how we look here. So this is earlier in the tournament,
• 32:12
  Speaker 2: her fourth round match against some after this is you Oh.
• 32:16
  Speaker 5: Yeah, here we go.
• 32:18
  Speaker 1: Look at you. You want it there?
• 32:19
  Speaker 5: You're like right away, Hey, I'm ready, man, I don't care.
• 32:21
  Speaker 5: Bring it. What's you know? If it's helping, I don't care.
• 32:23
  Speaker 5: Write whatever you want.
• 32:24
  Speaker 1: Do you know what she's gonna write before she writes it?
• 32:26
  Speaker 5: Not always yesterday I knew because she goes, oh she
• 32:28
  Speaker 5: figured right before. But normally it's just I don't know.
• 32:31
  Speaker 1: Have you ever had a big fight, and then you know,
• 32:34
  Speaker 1: I haven't reconciled completely.
• 32:36
  Speaker 5: I like, like I said, I like paw message from
• 32:43
  Speaker 5: out What is Paul?
• 32:43
  Speaker 1: What do you like?
• 32:44
  Speaker 5: Paul?
• 32:45
  Speaker 1: I know what you're talking about, some kind of brand.
• 32:47
  Speaker 5: It was like something kind of smirred a little bit here.
• 32:49
  Speaker 5: But yeah, no, it was none of these things that
• 32:51
  Speaker 5: we do. We have a really plan ahead. It just
• 32:52
  Speaker 5: sort of happens. And you know, I had this accident
• 32:54
  Speaker 5: where I got the stitches and the fracture like the
• 32:57
  Speaker 5: start of the first match, and and then so that
• 33:00
  Speaker 5: the next match she just drew like fake stitches on
• 33:01
  Speaker 5: this side, and then it just became the thing like
• 33:04
  Speaker 5: it wasn't talked about planned. She's like, okay, well I
• 33:06
  Speaker 5: gotta keep right on in your face. And then I'm like, okay, whatever, Yeah,
• 33:08
  Speaker 5: so's trying to come up with stitches on the other side. Yeah, yeah,
• 33:11
  Speaker 5: I have a fracture and that stitch it held up
• 33:13
  Speaker 5: crazy like it should be. It's been just over a
• 33:14
  Speaker 5: week and she's just swollen and closed up.
• 33:16
  Speaker 2: But I thought draw that on.
• 33:19
  Speaker 5: No, No, I'm secretly on woivel Raine. So I heel
• 33:20
  Speaker 5: really fast. But it is pretty crazy. Even the doctor
• 33:23
  Speaker 5: like holy crab. It's like, how's it gone already?
• 33:25
  Speaker 2: So did you make a hindrance call in the gym
• 33:27
  Speaker 2: or something like?
• 33:27
  Speaker 5: No, I can tell you. I can tell you. What
• 33:30
  Speaker 5: happened is that there's these long black like mobility sticks.
• 33:33
  Speaker 5: There's a little bit of flux to it, and then
• 33:34
  Speaker 5: there's this hard rubber sort of like mallet. Yeah, and
• 33:36
  Speaker 5: I was holding it upright, so it was on the
• 33:38
  Speaker 5: floor sticking upright. I holded it, and she's trying to
• 33:40
  Speaker 5: take it from me. I'm like, you can't. You're not
• 33:42
  Speaker 5: going to get my base and get my balance, Like,
• 33:43
  Speaker 5: no one, no one here is going to take my
• 33:45
  Speaker 5: troy back balance, you know. So she's got it from
• 33:47
  Speaker 5: the top bit like pulling it with two arms or
• 33:49
  Speaker 5: hold by trying to get it so the thing's bent
• 33:51
  Speaker 5: way back and then she slipped in it and I
• 33:53
  Speaker 5: pulled it right into the mount was like perfectly a
• 33:55
  Speaker 5: place right in my face. I was like, it didn't hurt,
• 33:57
  Speaker 5: but it was definitely like I just saw the big
• 33:59
  Speaker 5: flash of white. I'm like, oh, this is going to
• 34:01
  Speaker 5: be bad, you know.
• 34:06
  Speaker 4: You know.
• 34:06
  Speaker 5: I was like talk about the cameras are everywhere. Yeah,
• 34:08
  Speaker 5: Like there's everywhere, and the one thing that we wanted
• 34:10
  Speaker 5: to get a video of. There's no video of it.
• 34:12
  Speaker 1: Oh dude, it's like, what the hell possible? Right to
• 34:15
  Speaker 1: social media? Your other little side hustle. Maybe I shouldn't
• 34:19
  Speaker 1: call it a thought, little little yeah, yeah, okay, something
• 34:23
  Speaker 1: very important that it's the pressure Code. Can you tell
• 34:27
  Speaker 1: us a bit about the Pressure Code? I sat it
• 34:29
  Speaker 1: on the back of you should just there, yeah.
• 34:31
  Speaker 5: Anti, I thought I should, like, you know, put that
• 34:32
  Speaker 5: thing up there. Yeah. Look, I wrote a book. I
• 34:34
  Speaker 5: wrote a book. It's called the Pressure Code, and it's
• 34:37
  Speaker 5: about how elite performers align their energy, their emotions, and
• 34:40
  Speaker 5: their environment. Not just how you I'd say, It's not
• 34:45
  Speaker 5: just so you can perform your best, yeah, but how
• 34:46
  Speaker 5: can you sustain that performance? And probably more important to
• 34:49
  Speaker 5: me is not to just sustain that performance, but do
• 34:50
  Speaker 5: so well being aligned with your own values, you know,
• 34:53
  Speaker 5: building a strong character doing it so that way, when
• 34:56
  Speaker 5: when you get to wherever it is that you achieve
• 34:58
  Speaker 5: and where you go that you're happy with who you are,
• 35:00
  Speaker 5: you can just be who you are. You see that
• 35:02
  Speaker 5: with Arena, She's just who she is. And that's the
• 35:04
  Speaker 5: thing we've been working on all these years, is you know,
• 35:06
  Speaker 5: managing your energy, which is your you know, physical and
• 35:08
  Speaker 5: mental energy, you know, managing your emotions. So a lot
• 35:11
  Speaker 5: of that is like how you process it, but also
• 35:12
  Speaker 5: how you express those things. And then your environment, which
• 35:15
  Speaker 5: is like we talked about a little bit already, is
• 35:17
  Speaker 5: your internal environment. So it's not just like the things
• 35:19
  Speaker 5: you eat and drink, but it's you know, the content
• 35:21
  Speaker 5: you you know, absorb on media and social media, the
• 35:25
  Speaker 5: conversations that you are part of or that you allow,
• 35:27
  Speaker 5: So anything that's kind of going into your system will
• 35:30
  Speaker 5: have influence on how you think and feel and behave
• 35:32
  Speaker 5: so and then obviously the extra environment, which again I
• 35:34
  Speaker 5: talked about before, is just the people around you, because
• 35:36
  Speaker 5: that is going to have you know, the influencing more
• 35:38
  Speaker 5: than you know. Yeah, well, and it's it's an important
• 35:41
  Speaker 5: part because there's even parts about you know, I know,
• 35:44
  Speaker 5: we had a guy on the team for a short
• 35:45
  Speaker 5: time we needed some specific help with some things, and
• 35:47
  Speaker 5: he's a very anxious sort of person. And the thing
• 35:50
  Speaker 5: that I had to help everyone understand is that even
• 35:52
  Speaker 5: if he had the perfect body language and he was
• 35:54
  Speaker 5: standing and you know, present himself visually the right way,
• 35:57
  Speaker 5: intern that you could just feel you know how you
• 35:59
  Speaker 5: walk around and just feel someone's angry, happy, excited. Said,
• 36:02
  Speaker 5: I mean you can I know, not to get off
• 36:04
  Speaker 5: track too much, but you can literally smell like we
• 36:06
  Speaker 5: sweat out various hormones and like it's like, you know,
• 36:09
  Speaker 5: like women when they're in the same place for a while,
• 36:10
  Speaker 5: they start to their cycle start. Yeah, like does that
• 36:13
  Speaker 5: not seem weird?
• 36:13
  Speaker 4: You?
• 36:13
  Speaker 5: How does that happen? So there's a lot of weird
• 36:15
  Speaker 5: things that we we we pick up on how people,
• 36:18
  Speaker 5: how people's body, how their intentions, their intentions, how they're
• 36:21
  Speaker 5: feeling their emotions. So anyway, so.
• 36:25
  Speaker 1: I'm not going to get too deep into it, but yeah,
• 36:26
  Speaker 1: give us a reading on salmon ar. Yeah, what how
• 36:29
  Speaker 1: are we presenting? We well, well, we've.
• 36:34
  Speaker 2: Been recorded so many podcasts we SYNCD up, Yeah, getting
• 36:38
  Speaker 2: perfectly like I like it. Well, Jason, awesome to have
• 36:41
  Speaker 2: you in here before you go, How do you think
• 36:44
  Speaker 2: Arena is going to go in the final Saturday?
• 36:46
  Speaker 5: Is that even a question? Are you talking about.
• 36:48
  Speaker 1: He's a cab journalist, buddy.
• 36:52
  Speaker 2: Is he going to say, well, I'm not the one
• 36:53
  Speaker 2: that's tell me about your little side project.
• 36:58
  Speaker 1: It's a bookmark, you'sould great book. Yeah, all books are
• 37:01
  Speaker 1: little to me because I've got a big brain.
• 37:02
  Speaker 5: Oh yes, yes, yes, this would be a good book.
• 37:04
  Speaker 5: It'll help you a lot, a lot of way. No,
• 37:06
  Speaker 5: I think she's I think obviously. I think tomorrow's match
• 37:08
  Speaker 5: is going to be fantastic, a lot of energy, a
• 37:10
  Speaker 5: lot of excitement. I think whoever can really be in
• 37:14
  Speaker 5: sort of aware of their own rhythm and their strengths,
• 37:16
  Speaker 5: and they can find their rhythm and maintain that they're
• 37:19
  Speaker 5: gonna they're gonna have a huge advantage. You know, it's
• 37:21
  Speaker 5: gonna be It's gonna be tough, though. I mean, I mean,
• 37:23
  Speaker 5: I think either one of those girls, if either gets
• 37:24
  Speaker 5: a little ahead, it's gonna be very hard to change.
• 37:26
  Speaker 2: Well, their twenty twenty three final was a classic.
• 37:29
  Speaker 5: It's a beautiful match.
• 37:30
  Speaker 1: I'm pumped.
• 37:31
  Speaker 5: Yeah, yeah, it should be good.
• 37:32
  Speaker 1: Thanks for coming you mate, Before you go, can I
• 37:34
  Speaker 1: write something on your head? Maybe I'll write Arena and
• 37:37
  Speaker 1: then you know the world will see it till the final.
• 37:40
  Speaker 5: Well, I tell you what, I tell you what I
• 37:42
  Speaker 5: think the way to decide if you could or couldn't
• 37:44
  Speaker 5: is that I think maybe you and Arena need to
• 37:45
  Speaker 5: do like a little wrestling match and the winner of
• 37:48
  Speaker 5: that gets to decide.
• 37:51
  Speaker 1: No win situation for me.
• 37:54
  Speaker 5: Now, this this is a you know, it's part of
• 37:55
