  Speaker 5: whether you were at work, whether you're doing something like this,
• 1:33
  Speaker 5: it is the concept of shit happens.

• 2:28
  Speaker 5: Emily Boxing on Instagram and Twitter, Emily Underscore Boxing on
• 2:34
  Speaker 5: TikTok because she's really cool and she was gracious enough

• 2:39
  Speaker 4: Like I said, lust the win.
• 2:40
  Speaker 5: But we're hoping to have her back and just want

  Speaker 5: to chat a little bit about what's going on in
• 2:45
  Speaker 5: the boxing world, in the news, and maybe about what
• 2:47
  Speaker 5: we learned in the interview. So it's kind of like
• 2:50
  Speaker 5: talking to if you know what, It's kind of like
• 2:52
  Speaker 5: talking to somebody about what I did when I was
• 2:57
  Speaker 5: blackout drunk and they're telling me all the things that
• 2:59
  Speaker 5: I did that I don't remember. It's kind of the
• 3:01
  Speaker 5: same thing you guys blacked out during the interview, So
• 3:03
  Speaker 5: we're going to share a little bit about what happened. So, jameson,
• 3:07
  Speaker 5: what things do you take away from the interview from
• 3:09
  Speaker 5: the conversation with Emily that were really interesting to you
• 3:12
  Speaker 5: That when.
• 3:13
  Speaker 3: You promote boxing and you're in the boxing business, you
• 3:15
  Speaker 3: got to expect unexpected.
• 3:17
  Speaker 2: There's never gonna be a dull moment.
• 3:20
  Speaker 3: You got to always have your guard up, and that
• 3:23
  Speaker 3: you're dealing with so many people that come from all
• 3:25
  Speaker 3: different walks of life.
• 3:27
  Speaker 2: It's not a nine to five job.
• 3:29
  Speaker 3: It is also not a job that you can really
• 3:32
  Speaker 3: have like a indeed application for you kind of have
• 3:37
  Speaker 3: to get in the industry, learn the industry, and then
• 3:39
  Speaker 3: go from there. So it was very fascinating to hear
• 3:42
  Speaker 3: how she got her start and how she does her
• 3:46
  Speaker 3: business and the types of people she comes across.
• 3:50
  Speaker 4: Yeah, what I really.
• 3:52
  Speaker 5: Like is learning behind the scenes stuff. So she was
• 3:54
  Speaker 5: able to tell us some cool stories about working with
• 3:56
  Speaker 5: fighters and how they prepare. You know, I've always wondered,
• 4:00
  Speaker 5: you know, what's the hardest thing about getting into a fight?
• 4:04
  Speaker 5: Preparing for a fight. You know, because I've done boxing lessons.
• 4:07
  Speaker 4: I've ben sparring, never been that good.
• 4:09
  Speaker 5: I was pretty fit, you know for a while there
• 4:12
  Speaker 5: very lean, doing a lot of weightlifting, and you know,
• 4:15
  Speaker 5: it's really hard to train for boxing. Even it was
• 4:17
  Speaker 5: just for fun, like I was doing it. You know,
• 4:19
  Speaker 5: I was not trying to be professional or anything like that.
• 4:21
  Speaker 5: But you got to have good cardio. You got to
• 4:24
  Speaker 5: be strong, you have to be flexible, you know, you
• 4:26
  Speaker 5: got to work out head to tell people think you're
• 4:28
  Speaker 5: a fighter. You know, you just got to be able
• 4:30
  Speaker 5: to punch really hard. You have to have good footwork,
• 4:32
  Speaker 5: your legs have to be in good shape, and very
• 4:35
  Speaker 5: importantly what Emily said, it was most importantly is diet.
• 4:38
  Speaker 5: You know, she said that balance between life and diet
• 4:41
  Speaker 5: and getting yourself ready.
• 4:42
  Speaker 4: It's really hard. And it's hard to be.
• 4:44
  Speaker 5: A fighter because you know, some people have to feed
• 4:48
  Speaker 5: their families. You know, they have kids. It's hard to
• 4:50
  Speaker 5: find childcare, all that stuff. It's hard to find time
• 4:52
  Speaker 5: to get to the gym. I was doing it like
• 4:56
  Speaker 5: when things started opening up after I don't want to
• 4:59
  Speaker 5: say after the because technically never ended, but you know,
• 5:02
  Speaker 5: when things were opening back up, there was a lot
• 5:05
  Speaker 5: of free time to just do shit like that. So
• 5:09
  Speaker 5: but yeah, you know, it was really insightful to hear
• 5:11
  Speaker 5: from somebody that works with actual fighters, professional fighters who
• 5:16
  Speaker 5: you have to get into a ring and they have
• 5:18
  Speaker 5: a record, you know, they this goes on their actual
• 5:21
  Speaker 5: record means barring and getting my ass kicked on a
• 5:23
  Speaker 5: Saturday and a gym. You know, nobody has to know
• 5:25
  Speaker 5: about that, in fact that I want to talk about it,
• 5:28
  Speaker 5: but it's it's really, it's real hard work for these
• 5:31
  Speaker 5: fighters to get in there, and that's why that's why
• 5:32
  Speaker 5: I love the sport.
• 5:33
  Speaker 4: That's why I admire fighters.
• 5:35
  Speaker 5: Another thing that I was surprised by. I asked her,
• 5:39
  Speaker 5: you know, did you ever see something And it's a
• 5:41
  Speaker 5: question for you, Jameson, have you ever seen anything in
• 5:44
  Speaker 5: a fighter when they're walking up to the ring that
• 5:45
  Speaker 5: makes you think a man doesn't have it, he is
• 5:47
  Speaker 5: going to lose this fight. He is not on point.
• 5:50
  Speaker 5: You know, whether it's like confidence or physique. Have you
• 5:53
  Speaker 5: ever seen a fight where you think this guy, for
• 5:56
  Speaker 5: whatever reason, just is going to lose.
• 5:58
  Speaker 3: Tonight when they got too many people around them, too
• 6:00
  Speaker 3: many non boxing people around. So I'm a big component
• 6:04
  Speaker 3: of whoever's in your camp is in your camp.
• 6:07
  Speaker 2: Don't be having these extra people who.
• 6:09
  Speaker 3: Don't mean nothing come during the ring walk with you,
• 6:12
  Speaker 3: who ain't a part of the boxing. Like when when
• 6:15
  Speaker 3: it comes to the business part, let the business people
• 6:19
  Speaker 3: be there with you, your cut me, your trainer, whomever's involved
• 6:22
  Speaker 3: on them on the boxing side, those are going to
• 6:25
  Speaker 3: be the only people involved. Only I'm not involved with
• 6:28
  Speaker 3: all the hanger ons and everything else. Because the infamous
• 6:31
  Speaker 3: Adrian Brownerclip when he fought Maydonna and came out with
• 6:35
  Speaker 3: eleven twelve people and he ended up walking back lumped
• 6:39
  Speaker 3: up with one person. That was the all. That's total lot,
• 6:43
  Speaker 3: and that happens a whole lot. And I'll put it
• 6:46
  Speaker 3: this way. A lot of boxers have financial problems because
• 6:50
  Speaker 3: of the people that they have in a corner. And
• 6:52
  Speaker 3: that's not even race or of anything specific. That's just
• 6:57
  Speaker 3: a thing in general. You gotta be smart with how
• 7:00
  Speaker 3: you handle the fight, prep the fight, day, the fight,
• 7:05
  Speaker 3: and everything has to be done right because if not,
• 7:08
  Speaker 3: if you lose focus, if you don't do something right,
• 7:11
  Speaker 3: it can cost because the end of the day, the
• 7:13
  Speaker 3: main things that happens in the ring, like all the
• 7:15
  Speaker 3: other bullshit, don't matter right all, like the Wilder shipping
• 7:18
  Speaker 3: he came in and he was being none of that.
• 7:20
  Speaker 2: Shit actually matters.
• 7:21
  Speaker 3: We get out the fight and at the end of
• 7:24
  Speaker 3: the day, if things are taking you off your focus
• 7:26
  Speaker 3: for a fight, that's when it's like, hey man, keep
• 7:30
  Speaker 3: the main thing, the main thing. I think a lot
• 7:32
  Speaker 3: of boxers get caught up with the extras too much
• 7:35
  Speaker 3: instead of the actual fight itself.
• 7:38
  Speaker 5: Yeah, definitely. I mean, does a lot of really good insight.
• 7:43
  Speaker 5: And I was listening, but in my head, all I
• 7:44
  Speaker 5: was thinking was, don't bring Eminem on a ringwalk. But
• 7:46
  Speaker 5: Crawford seven sucks.
• 7:49
  Speaker 2: That's personal situation.
• 7:52
  Speaker 3: But you know, I mean it worked out for him
• 7:54
  Speaker 3: because you know that was I mean, but has been
• 7:57
  Speaker 3: I mean, but it's always been a really great fighter,
• 7:58
  Speaker 3: and you know that's never been in doubt. But I mean,
• 8:02
  Speaker 3: it worked out, And I was all she wrote for
• 8:04
  Speaker 3: one guy. You know, one guy has not been the same.
• 8:07
  Speaker 3: We haven't seen him in the ring since, so so yeah, sure, And.
• 8:11
  Speaker 5: I'm not trying to discuss anything you're saying. I just
• 8:13
  Speaker 5: couldn't help but get in some slip in some hate
• 8:15
  Speaker 5: for Eminem But yeah, no, I mean, you know, but
• 8:18
  Speaker 5: the Onto Watch thing, the Hollywood ontourage thing, has always
• 8:22
  Speaker 5: been a thing for a long time. You know, there's
• 8:24
  Speaker 5: a people tell stories about, oh, these celebrities, Adam Sandler
• 8:27
  Speaker 5: walks in with ten guys for whatever reason, he has
• 8:30
  Speaker 5: a whole posse. People on SNL have said that before,
• 8:33
  Speaker 5: and I'm like, why, Like, who the hell is who
• 8:35
  Speaker 5: the hell does the Sandman hanging around and boxers. I'm
• 8:39
  Speaker 5: a little bit more understanding because like, yeah, you have trainers,
• 8:41
  Speaker 5: you said, cutman, you got I don't know, guy who
• 8:43
  Speaker 5: holds the pads. Boxers have a really big team, even
• 8:46
  Speaker 5: though it's just one person in the ring at a time.
• 8:48
  Speaker 5: But yeah, I don't know, it's people get high on
• 8:51
  Speaker 5: their own supply. And uh yeah, but you say focus
• 8:55
  Speaker 5: on what happens in the ring and leave everything out.
• 8:57
  Speaker 5: That's just a whole like that's an ongoing story that
• 9:01
  Speaker 5: we can talk about over and over again for fighters
• 9:03
  Speaker 5: who just don't have the focus. So but yeah, no,
• 9:07
  Speaker 5: And like I said, it's really interesting talking to somebody
• 9:09
  Speaker 5: that actually works with fighters, tries to match up fighters.
• 9:13
  Speaker 5: We asked her what it's like to try to find
• 9:15
  Speaker 5: people to participate in events. She even said, like jokingly
• 9:18
  Speaker 5: but joking, but not joking, it's the worst job in
• 9:21
  Speaker 5: the world trying to find people to fight. It was
• 9:23
  Speaker 5: really interesting. She said, there's not a lot of guys
• 9:26
  Speaker 5: out there fighting since COVID.
• 9:27
  Speaker 4: Which is really interesting.
• 9:28
  Speaker 5: I mean, did they die, Therona, did they get fat
• 9:31
  Speaker 5: because they were staying at home?
• 9:33
  Speaker 4: I don't know that part.
• 9:34
  Speaker 3: But also getting people there on time and in a
• 9:37
  Speaker 3: safe manner. Right, So if you've got eight fights, that's
• 9:39
  Speaker 3: sixteen humans you got to count on to get there safely,
• 9:43
  Speaker 3: get there prepared, and remember, at the end of the day,
• 9:46
  Speaker 3: we're all people, so if as people, people make mistakes.
• 9:50
  Speaker 3: People don't all have it going the right way all
• 9:52
  Speaker 3: the time. So getting people on track is very underrated.
• 9:56
  Speaker 3: As boxing fans, we don't think about that shit. We
• 9:59
  Speaker 3: just think about all why the may car comes on
• 10:01
  Speaker 3: I six and there's three fights until the main event.
• 10:05
  Speaker 3: That's all we care about. The promoter's got a class
• 10:07
  Speaker 3: fighting at two pm because they they thrown a whole car,
• 10:11
  Speaker 3: and God deal with everybody's agencies and camps and the
• 10:15
  Speaker 3: whole nine and even one little misstep can become a
• 10:19
  Speaker 3: whole big thing.
• 10:19
  Speaker 2: So I totally understand which she's coming from.
• 10:23
  Speaker 5: Hey, you're talking to guys on a show that just
• 10:25
  Speaker 5: did an awesome interview and lost the recording, So you know,
• 10:28
  Speaker 5: shit even happens to us. You think like, oh, it's easy.
• 10:30
  Speaker 5: You just get two guys in front of a mic
• 10:32
  Speaker 5: with one idiot in a mask. He'll just about whatever
• 10:34
  Speaker 5: is off the top of his head. Easy, pasy, right,
• 10:36
  Speaker 5: you know, I guess I guess. The lesson here is
• 10:39
  Speaker 5: there's a lot going on behind the scenes that we
• 10:41
  Speaker 5: don't know about.
• 10:42
  Speaker 4: So yeah, it's.
• 10:45
  Speaker 5: Especially for a professional sport. And the thing I love
• 10:48
  Speaker 5: about boxing is what I've always said it, there's like
• 10:50
  Speaker 5: just two people in a ring.
• 10:52
  Speaker 4: That's it.
• 10:52
  Speaker 5: There's no teams. There's no like, you know, two different
• 10:55
  Speaker 5: teams they each and have their own players. Blah blah blah.
• 10:57
  Speaker 5: There's so many people involved. You got the football coach
• 11:01
  Speaker 5: is also the defense coach, et cetera, et cetera. I
• 11:03
  Speaker 5: like the simplicity of boxing, but at the end of
• 11:05
  Speaker 5: the day, behind the scenes, it's not simple at all.
• 11:08
  Speaker 5: You know, this is this isn't very different from all
• 11:10
  Speaker 5: those other sports. There's a lot of people to make
• 11:12
  Speaker 5: these fights happen, and you know, shout out to them,
• 11:14
  Speaker 5: Shout out to people like Emily, shout out to to
• 11:16
  Speaker 5: all those fighters who agree to get into into the
• 11:18
  Speaker 5: ring and uh, you know, put their assets on the line.
• 11:22
  Speaker 3: And there's no way HR in boxing, Like you can't
• 11:25
  Speaker 3: go to HR if you got a complaint, Like it's
• 11:27
  Speaker 3: kind of it's kind of like I don't want to
• 11:30
  Speaker 3: at the drug game because that's not fair.
• 11:31
  Speaker 2: But there's like no rules in a.
• 11:33
  Speaker 3: Sense, you know what I mean, Like there's no you
• 11:36
  Speaker 3: can't report someone to the Better Business Bureau like you know,
• 11:39
  Speaker 3: I mean, there's just nothing. There's no checks and balances.
• 11:41
  Speaker 3: So if you've got a problem, smind you just don't
• 11:43
  Speaker 3: work with that company in person.
• 11:44
  Speaker 2: No more.
• 11:45
  Speaker 5: Yeah, we could touch shit on on social media. You
• 11:47
  Speaker 5: can talk shit on interviews. People do that all the time.
• 11:49
  Speaker 5: You know, people say like, yeah, whatever gold the boys sucked.
• 11:52
  Speaker 5: I never you know, fuck Oscarillo, yeah, et cetera.
• 11:54
  Speaker 4: You know, they could do that.
• 11:56
  Speaker 2: But that's it though.
• 11:56
  Speaker 3: There's nothing really nothing else, So it's it's kind of
• 11:59
  Speaker 3: an interesting thing when you look back at it. But
• 12:01
  Speaker 3: also I think about like this, when you look at
• 12:04
  Speaker 3: the grand scheme of things. You Once you're in the industry,
• 12:08
  Speaker 3: you know and talk to everybody, so word gets around quickly,
• 12:11
  Speaker 3: whether you're good to do business with, bad to do
• 12:14
  Speaker 3: business with, et cetera, et cetera. When it comes to boxing,
• 12:17
  Speaker 3: you kind of need everyone on your side to make
• 12:20
  Speaker 3: things shake, because, like you mentioned, you got an eight
• 12:23
  Speaker 3: fight of it. Somebody pulls out a week before a
• 12:26
  Speaker 3: fight or two for a fight. You need to be
• 12:28
  Speaker 3: able to scare on, make a couple of calls and
• 12:30
  Speaker 3: get somebody in place. So like those are the things
• 12:33
  Speaker 3: that are very prominent. But no, it was very fascinating,
• 12:36
  Speaker 3: especially being a woman in boxing is not the easiest
• 12:39
  Speaker 3: thing in general, so it was very fascinating, like and
• 12:42
  Speaker 3: it doesn't he a good job with you know, also
• 12:46
  Speaker 3: being being human short humilities. She was very very easy
• 12:50
  Speaker 3: going and you didn't think she was a very important person.
• 12:54
  Speaker 3: By how she was answered the questions and how she
• 12:57
  Speaker 3: interacted was you felt that she was just direct one
• 13:00
  Speaker 3: person doing a regular job.
• 13:02
  Speaker 2: And that was it.
• 13:04
  Speaker 4: One hundred percent.
• 13:05
  Speaker 5: Yeah, you know, apologies Emily for you know, us having
• 13:07
  Speaker 5: those technical difficulties, you know, except really hope that she
• 13:10
  Speaker 5: comes back and forgives us and you know, absolves us
• 13:14
  Speaker 5: of this of this crime that was committed by by technology.
• 13:18
  Speaker 5: But uh yeah, for those of you all you know,
• 13:20
  Speaker 5: uh in the in Arizona, in Phoenix especially look up
• 13:24
  Speaker 5: Brolin the Bodrio, Look up Dey'll Soul boxing on Instagram,
• 13:27
  Speaker 5: Look up Emily boxing on Instagram. You know it's you
• 13:29
  Speaker 5: don't think of Arizona as like a boxing center, you know. Uh,
• 13:33
  Speaker 5: of course everybody thinks Vegas, Jameson you are everybody thinks
• 13:36
  Speaker 5: in New York. Uh, Saudi Arabia, La definitely. But you know,
• 13:42
  Speaker 5: we have boxing events a lot of them haven't in Phoenix,
• 13:45
  Speaker 5: but we have some in Tucson as well, where I'm
• 13:46
  Speaker 5: at and uh, yeah, and I think what it does,
• 13:48
  Speaker 5: and I've said this before. I've mentioned there's a lot
• 13:50
  Speaker 5: of Mexicans in Arizona, and Mexicans love boxing, so I
• 13:53
  Speaker 5: think that, uh, it's a it's a prime area if
• 13:56
  Speaker 5: you're a fan looking to get in the sport, said,
• 13:59
  Speaker 5: look up, they'll sell promotions dot com. You know there's
• 14:02
  Speaker 5: uh you get tickets to live events that happened four
• 14:04
  Speaker 5: times a year.
• 14:05
  Speaker 4: I've been there before.
• 14:08
  Speaker 5: There's probably gonna be another one July fourth weekend. So
• 14:11
  Speaker 5: I'm already looking forward to that team if I can
• 14:12
  Speaker 5: make a weekend out of it. So if you're there
• 14:14
  Speaker 5: brawl in the Body in July, you know, look for me.
• 14:16
  Speaker 5: I'll probably be the only guy in a suit in
• 14:18
  Speaker 5: the pocket square.
• 14:19
  Speaker 4: But these these.
• 14:20
  Speaker 5: Events are a lot of fun. Live boxing is is great.
• 14:23
  Speaker 5: And and these events they're not like huge they're adding
• 14:25
  Speaker 5: giant arenas, you know, they're they're kind of small areas,
• 14:29
  Speaker 5: so there's no bat seat in the house. It's very
• 14:32
  Speaker 5: intimate and just it's a great time. So live boxing
• 14:35
  Speaker 5: is a lot of fun. So we you know, we
• 14:37
  Speaker 5: still got a show for you all today. So you know,
• 14:39
  Speaker 5: even though we lost this, we still got some stuff
• 14:41
  Speaker 5: that we want to talk about. There is some stuff
• 14:45
  Speaker 5: going on in the boxing world that I wanted to mention,
• 14:47
  Speaker 5: and I think James and you want to you want
• 14:49
  Speaker 5: to go through the.
• 14:50
  Speaker 4: News stories with me, we can.
• 14:52
  Speaker 2: We can.
• 14:53
  Speaker 4: Yeah, let's do that.
• 14:54
  Speaker 5: Uh. First thing up in the Boxing Gazette that I
• 14:57
  Speaker 5: picked up from the new stand Big George farm And
• 15:00
  Speaker 5: last week passed away at the age of seventy six.
• 15:04
  Speaker 5: You know, we we've actually talked about George Foreman on
• 15:08
  Speaker 5: this episode on the show, on episode five, specifically because
• 15:11
  Speaker 5: we were discussing his biopic, Big George Foreman.
• 15:14
  Speaker 2: Yep.
• 15:14
  Speaker 5: You know Man was a legend. You know, he's a legend.
• 15:18
  Speaker 5: He was the oldest heavyweight champ in history. He reclaimed
• 15:20
  Speaker 5: the heavyweight title in nineteen ninety four at the age
• 15:22
  Speaker 5: of forty six. That's like rounds up to fifty. Basically
• 15:27
  Speaker 5: one of the most recognizable boxers, even to people who
• 15:30
  Speaker 5: never watched a single fight. Yeah, you know, I just
• 15:33
  Speaker 5: I just want to see if you had any thoughts
• 15:35
  Speaker 5: on the Champ that.
• 15:35
  Speaker 4: You know, we've been.
• 15:36
  Speaker 5: Talking about this guy for decades now. There's not really
• 15:39
  Speaker 5: much to say other than you know, rip and thanks
• 15:42
  Speaker 5: for the memories. But Jamison, no, no, what are your what
• 15:45
  Speaker 5: are your thoughts on losing Big George.
• 15:46
  Speaker 2: I'm glad he got his flowers while he was alive.
• 15:49
  Speaker 3: I'm glad we didn't wait till he passed and then
• 15:52
  Speaker 3: we started all.
• 15:53
  Speaker 5: You know.
• 15:53
  Speaker 3: Well, now he got his flowers while he was alive,
• 15:56
  Speaker 3: and his legacy's gonna live on for a lot of reasons.
• 15:59
  Speaker 2: So good.
• 16:01
  Speaker 3: It's always sucks when we lose somebody, but he lived
• 16:03
  Speaker 3: a very long life and the latter end was very good,
• 16:06
  Speaker 3: which is unlike likely for most boxers. So I was
• 16:09
  Speaker 3: good to see him go out basically on top of
• 16:11
  Speaker 3: a sense.
• 16:13
  Speaker 5: Yeah, absolutely, you know, And he's a hometown hero.
• 16:17
  Speaker 2: He's from Houston.
• 16:18
  Speaker 5: I'm from Houston.
• 16:19
  Speaker 2: He was born in.
• 16:19
  Speaker 5: Marshall, Texas, but he grew up in Houston in the
• 16:21
  Speaker 5: Fifth Ward, so that's where I was from. So, you know,
• 16:24
  Speaker 5: it's it's interesting to see a fellow Texan out.
• 16:28
  Speaker 4: There in the news. You know, even when.
• 16:29
  Speaker 5: He retired from boxing for for the first time, when
• 16:33
  Speaker 5: he took him off to be a pastor.
• 16:34
  Speaker 4: He was preaching in Houston.
• 16:35
  Speaker 5: I never never made it, didn't make it the church
• 16:37
  Speaker 5: much when I was a kid. I don't know if
• 16:38
  Speaker 5: you could probably guess that, but but yeah, he was
• 16:42
  Speaker 5: out there for a long time, you know, preaching before
• 16:44
  Speaker 5: he decided to make some big comeback. And yeah, we
• 16:47
  Speaker 5: didn't love that movie that was made about him. It
• 16:49
  Speaker 5: had some good stuff. I think we probably rated like
• 16:51
  Speaker 5: two point eight three out of four gloves or something
• 16:54
  Speaker 5: like that. But it's an amazing story, you know, and
• 16:57
  Speaker 5: you know we could we couldn't have this show without
• 17:00
  Speaker 5: mentioning the loss of George Foreman. Also, here's the one
• 17:04
  Speaker 5: for you.
• 17:04
  Speaker 4: I think.
• 17:07
  Speaker 5: Now I'm feeling it the period because I'm thirty nine.
• 17:09
  Speaker 5: I'm feeling the period where I'm feeling washed because the
• 17:13
  Speaker 5: big name celebrities and there are people that I actually
• 17:15
  Speaker 5: knew about from when I was a kid. You know,
• 17:17
  Speaker 5: there's a period like, you know, I don't know, fifteen
• 17:19
  Speaker 5: years ago, You're like, oh, this actor died. He was
• 17:21
  Speaker 5: in some movies in the sixties. He was some granpy
• 17:24
  Speaker 5: that was in black and white stuff. I'm like, yeah, whatever, okay,
• 17:26
  Speaker 5: you know that's sad. But I don't give a shit whatever.
• 17:29
  Speaker 5: But now it's just like, oh, this guy, I know
• 17:31
  Speaker 5: this guy. Oh I grew up knowing who this guy was.
• 17:34
  Speaker 5: So this is gonna happen more and more to us.
• 17:37
  Speaker 5: As you know, obviously eight people can go at any time,
• 17:40
  Speaker 5: and people can have untimely deaths.
• 17:41
  Speaker 4: And you know, tell their when they're in their twenties
• 17:44
  Speaker 4: and thirties.
• 17:44
  Speaker 5: But but I think this is gonna be this is
• 17:47
  Speaker 5: the next phase of our lives.
• 17:49
  Speaker 4: Jameson.
• 17:49
  Speaker 5: We're born in the same year. I think we're gonna
• 17:51
  Speaker 5: see more and more people passing were like, oh, fuck
• 17:55
  Speaker 5: that guy, that lady Like I grew up listening to
• 17:57
  Speaker 5: that music. I grew up you know, watching that guy
• 18:00
  Speaker 5: on this TV. And it was it was a bit
• 18:03
  Speaker 5: a bit eye opening.
• 18:05
  Speaker 3: Yeah, nah, man, it is. When you get older, you
• 18:10
  Speaker 3: realize how fast time goes. You realize where you were
• 18:13
  Speaker 3: ten years ago, fifteen years ago, twenty years ago, and
• 18:17
  Speaker 3: you realize it doesn't feel as far away as it
• 18:21
  Speaker 3: did when you were younger. Right when you were younger,
• 18:22
  Speaker 3: it felt like time went slow. Now it feels like
• 18:26
  Speaker 3: time flies by, Like you know, we're both about to
• 18:29
  Speaker 3: be forty soon, and I'm if you had your twenty
• 18:32
  Speaker 3: year high school reunion yet. But it doesn't feel like
• 18:35
  Speaker 3: about high school for twenty years, just doesn't. So this
• 18:38
  Speaker 3: is one of those things. Man, It's very fascinating how
• 18:41
  Speaker 3: time goes. We are correct, we are losing people that
• 18:44
  Speaker 3: we actually knew of, we knew about the whole nine.
• 18:47
  Speaker 3: So it's one of those things, man, where you know,
• 18:51
  Speaker 3: you's got to hope you be you know, you know,
• 18:53
  Speaker 3: stay healthy as possible, live life the right way, and do.
• 18:56
  Speaker 2: What you can sure.
• 18:59
  Speaker 5: And I I never even heard about a high school
• 19:01
  Speaker 5: reunion happening, insaid, but I wouldn't have gone to that shit.
• 19:04
  Speaker 4: I'm not going to see those people from high schools.
• 19:07
  Speaker 5: But I was funny when I was in Houston. I
• 19:09
  Speaker 5: was hanging out with my little sister last month, and
• 19:11
  Speaker 5: she asked me, Hey, do you have any friends here.
• 19:13
  Speaker 5: I'm like, you mean the people from high school fucked out.
• 19:15
  Speaker 5: I'm not gonna talk to those people. So that's that
• 19:19
  Speaker 5: life is long gone. But I understand honestly. Anyway, Let's
• 19:24
  Speaker 5: see what else is going on in the news. Let's
• 19:25
  Speaker 5: let's keep flipping through the Boxing Gazette, because this Saturday,
• 19:30
  Speaker 5: March twenty ninth, We've got a rematch between Mikaela may
• 19:33
  Speaker 5: Or and Sandy Ryan. They're meeting up since their last
• 19:36
  Speaker 5: fight in September of twenty twenty four. This one's going
• 19:39
  Speaker 5: to be in Vegas, Jamison, Are you gonna be able
• 19:41
  Speaker 5: to attend this fighting person since you're in Vegas?
• 19:43
  Speaker 3: Unfortunately, I won't be able to go. I do have
• 19:45
  Speaker 3: a prior engagement. However, I'm very curious how this fight's
• 19:49
  Speaker 3: in Vegas. This feels like they've been trying to get
• 19:52
  Speaker 3: boxing out of Vegas. If you looked at the location
• 19:54
  Speaker 3: of all the big fights recently, whether they've gone overseas
• 19:57
  Speaker 3: or whether they're back East, it feels like Vegas the
• 20:00
  Speaker 3: forgotten step child. So it is good to see a
• 20:03
  Speaker 3: ESPN type fight staying in Vegas for once.
• 20:07
  Speaker 5: Sure, especially this one. You know this this was a
• 20:09
  Speaker 5: big deal. And I don't know if you saw the
• 20:11
  Speaker 5: their first fight in September. I did get to see it,
• 20:13
  Speaker 5: and so there was drama behind the scenes. I don't
• 20:16
  Speaker 5: know if you know the story about somebody just threw
• 20:18
  Speaker 5: like red pain at Sandy Ryan while she was coming
• 20:20
  Speaker 5: out of her hotel.
• 20:21
  Speaker 4: Did you hear anything about that?
• 20:22
  Speaker 2: Yep?
• 20:23
  Speaker 5: Yeah, So and then you know, they were sniping each
• 20:25
  Speaker 5: other back and forth, and it actually like nearly a
• 20:28
  Speaker 5: million people tuned in, which is like one of the biggest,
• 20:31
  Speaker 5: the biggest audience for women's boxing in like I don't know,
• 20:34
  Speaker 5: almost twenty years or something like that. So this seems
• 20:37
  Speaker 5: to have a lot of hype and it's cool to have. Yeah,
• 20:39
  Speaker 5: like you said, big fights still happening in Vegas, and
• 20:43
  Speaker 5: for this last the last fight was pretty close, Margins.
• 20:46
  Speaker 4: One one judge said it was a draw. MICHAELA.
• 20:49
  Speaker 5: Mayer won the the women's walterweight championship, and I don't know,
• 20:54
  Speaker 5: I thought it was really close. That was one of
• 20:56
  Speaker 5: those controversial events. Another thing we talked to Emily about
• 20:59
  Speaker 5: was I was always curious as to when there's a
• 21:02
  Speaker 5: really close fight and there the judges go one way.
• 21:08
  Speaker 5: They didn't a fighter as the winner, the one who
• 21:10
  Speaker 5: loses will always say the same thing. You know, I
• 21:11
  Speaker 5: won that fight, I got robbed, I won, And I
• 21:13
  Speaker 5: was curious, like behind the scenes, did they ever actually say, like,
• 21:16
  Speaker 5: you know, I got to say that I want, but
• 21:17
  Speaker 5: I know that I lost that shit. And she said, yeah,
• 21:19
  Speaker 5: some people actually they know they know that they didn't
• 21:23
  Speaker 5: quite stick it. Out and of course, you know, here's
• 21:25
  Speaker 5: the thing. Have we ever had a guy lose a
• 21:27
  Speaker 5: close fight and say.
• 21:29
  Speaker 4: Yeah, I fucked up?
• 21:30
  Speaker 5: You know, it was I was bad tonight. You know
• 21:33
  Speaker 5: they usually have to say face and I understand, but
• 21:36
  Speaker 5: it's really interesting to hear that behind the scenes and
• 21:39
  Speaker 5: there's no cameras. They might say, yeah, no, we're uh
• 21:43
  Speaker 5: just didn't have it, and it happens, you know, right,
• 21:47
  Speaker 5: But yeah, shout out to good.
• 21:50
  Speaker 2: No, you're good, You're good.
• 21:52
  Speaker 5: Yeah, I say shout out to these ladies, you know.
• 21:55
  Speaker 5: And the last fight was great, by the way. You know,
• 21:57
  Speaker 5: let's just say, yes, it was close, Margins, but it
• 21:58
  Speaker 5: was an excellent fight.
• 21:59
  Speaker 4: Uh.
• 22:01
  Speaker 5: Sandy Ryan came out with she got Mikayla Marray with
• 22:05
  Speaker 5: a ship a little left hooks she got she took
• 22:08
  Speaker 5: a lot of hooks and but she took him well,
• 22:10
  Speaker 5: you know, you could tell that they had an effect.
• 22:12
  Speaker 5: But you know, she she's got a chain on her
• 22:15
  Speaker 5: and uh, I don't know. At the end of the day,
• 22:18
  Speaker 5: I was happy with the results, you know, both these ladies. Uh,
• 22:22
  Speaker 5: let's see, how do I put this nicely? Sandy Ryan,
• 22:24
  Speaker 5: she's a British and so Mikayla Mary is American, So
• 22:27
  Speaker 5: for both white ladies, I think I'm I think I'm
• 22:29
  Speaker 5: team Mayor.
• 22:30
  Speaker 4: You know, sorry, sorry, Sandy, you know.
• 22:32
  Speaker 5: What, You're a great fighter, but uh, you know, Kayla
• 22:35
  Speaker 5: Mayor is right next door, so no offense. But hope
• 22:38
  Speaker 5: Mayor takes out the wind this Saturday as well, so
• 22:40
  Speaker 5: tune into that on ESPN.
• 22:44
  Speaker 2: Oh all right, what.
• 22:46
  Speaker 4: Else we got?
• 22:47
  Speaker 5: And then coming up April fifth, Saturday. This one's interesting
• 22:52
  Speaker 5: to talk about because Richard Torres Junior, a rising star
• 22:56
  Speaker 5: of the heavyweight division, is actually headlining for the first time.
• 22:59
  Speaker 5: Are you familiar with the Richard Torres Studior.
• 23:02
  Speaker 2: A little bit, A little bit.
• 23:04
  Speaker 4: I've seen him fight live.
• 23:05
  Speaker 5: I saw him on the card on during the Oscar
• 23:08
  Speaker 5: Valdez and fight, so he was there. So this guy
• 23:13
  Speaker 5: went to the Olympics. He's a talented fighter. Okay, Like,
• 23:16
  Speaker 5: let's put that out there right now. He's he's he's
• 23:18
  Speaker 5: got skills, he's very fit. Fans gotta say that he's
• 23:24
  Speaker 5: been propped up by a bunch of fights with tomato cans, you.
• 23:28
  Speaker 2: Know, is that?
• 23:29
  Speaker 5: How about this, let's say this, is that a thing
• 23:30
  Speaker 5: that happens where you know, some promoters try to make
• 23:33
  Speaker 5: a name. They kind of put him up against some
• 23:35
  Speaker 5: easy fights to try to kind of prop up a
• 23:37
  Speaker 5: rising star that maybe my nutter And is that a
• 23:40
  Speaker 5: thing that usually.
• 23:40
  Speaker 4: Happens, That is my question to you.
• 23:42
  Speaker 3: Yes, because this guy just in general, Yeah, of course,
• 23:45
  Speaker 3: because this is a business and you're always looking to
• 23:49
  Speaker 3: get the next guy that's marketable.
• 23:51
  Speaker 2: So if you can set that guy up, that's what
• 23:53
  Speaker 2: you're going to do.
• 23:54
  Speaker 3: I mean, there's a lot of people who have money
• 23:56
  Speaker 3: involved and invested, and when that's the case, you're always
• 23:59
  Speaker 3: looking to catch lightning in a bottle. So you think
• 24:02
  Speaker 3: you have that, you're going to prepare life. Then you're
• 24:05
  Speaker 3: gonna do certain things to you know, put your boxer
• 24:10
  Speaker 3: in that direction if it's possible. Sometimes we get live
• 24:14
  Speaker 3: to Sometimes guys may have a good first ten fights
• 24:17
  Speaker 3: to get in there with somebody else and things change.
• 24:20
  Speaker 3: But a lot of times, hey, if it's done correctly,
• 24:23
  Speaker 3: you get a very marketable god that's fighting two times
• 24:25
  Speaker 3: a year, making a lot of money for everybody involved.
• 24:28
  Speaker 2: So I get it. But it's all business at the
• 24:30
  Speaker 2: end of the day.
• 24:32
  Speaker 5: Sure, and you know, I again, I'm not trying to
• 24:34
  Speaker 5: be a hater against Brichet Torres. You know, I wish
• 24:36
  Speaker 5: him the best, and Nick said he's got telling him.
• 24:37
  Speaker 5: But when I saw him fight, I forget the name
• 24:39
  Speaker 5: of the guy fight, but I forget the name of
• 24:41
  Speaker 5: the guy that he fought. But it was just that guy,
• 24:44
  Speaker 5: like it was just a big old guy.
• 24:45
  Speaker 4: I'm sorry.
• 24:46
  Speaker 5: I was like, where are you putting these two dudes
• 24:49
  Speaker 5: together in this spring? So it wasn't It was very
• 24:52
  Speaker 5: one side. And I think the referee stopped in like
• 24:55
  Speaker 5: two or something like that.
• 24:57
  Speaker 4: So I don't know this.
• 24:59
  Speaker 5: On fifty he's gonna be fighting an Italian fighter named
• 25:01
  Speaker 5: Guido Vanello, and I don't know anything about Wiedo Vanello,
• 25:05
  Speaker 5: so I'll put that out there.
• 25:06
  Speaker 4: Right now, but I don't know.
• 25:08
  Speaker 5: Let's see if Richard Torres actually has the hype, actually
• 25:11
  Speaker 5: has the skills to become a big name star. And
• 25:15
  Speaker 5: you know something that we should say right now for
• 25:19
  Speaker 5: the listeners if you're listening to audio only, we're actually
• 25:21
  Speaker 5: on using a new streaming service.
• 25:24
  Speaker 4: We're recording videos.
• 25:25
  Speaker 5: So we're trying to figure out how to do promos
• 25:27
  Speaker 5: and how to put this up online. I'm still talking
• 25:29
  Speaker 5: about that, but look up, Richard Torres junior this tours
• 25:32
  Speaker 5: with his z Look up the picture of him with
• 25:34
  Speaker 5: the mustache.
• 25:35
  Speaker 4: My man looks like he starred in seventies Porner movies.
• 25:38
  Speaker 4: He really does.
• 25:39
  Speaker 5: I'm so sorry. Shout out to Richard Torres Junior. All right,
• 25:44
  Speaker 5: what else we got going on in the news.
• 25:47
  Speaker 4: So yeah, Another thing that I really.
• 25:50
  Speaker 5: Want to talk about that came up in the conversation
• 25:54
  Speaker 5: with Emily was, like I said, the difficulty in finding fighters.
• 26:00
  Speaker 5: And also, I never I've always been curious about how
• 26:03
  Speaker 5: somebody goes from just working out in the gym to
• 26:05
  Speaker 5: being like an event like this. Forget about ESPN, e HBO,
• 26:09
  Speaker 5: pay per view, any of thattually just like a live
• 26:11
  Speaker 5: event where you can, you know, be in a ring
• 26:16
  Speaker 5: in from an audience. And she's just telling us, you know,
• 26:18
  Speaker 5: you first you gotta get a trainer. Most importantly, you know,
• 26:22
  Speaker 5: you gotta find promoter. You gotta go into a commission.
• 26:26
  Speaker 5: You have to prove your skills in front of a commission,
• 26:29
  Speaker 5: he said, some people, actually you have to have like
• 26:31
  Speaker 5: twenty five amateur fights. Some places you just got to
• 26:35
  Speaker 5: demonstrate your skills. My question for you, she did say,
• 26:38
  Speaker 5: there's like a thirty five and overleak where some guys
• 26:42
  Speaker 5: have they have the bucket list league. Let's say you
• 26:44
  Speaker 5: had the opportunity to get into go to an event,
• 26:47
  Speaker 5: participate event jamison, you yourself as a fighter against another
• 26:51
  Speaker 5: guy our age. Would you do that knowing that it's
• 26:54
  Speaker 5: similar skill set, gave you time to train, would you
• 26:56
  Speaker 5: ever get into a ring? No?
• 26:58
  Speaker 3: Man, like, no, you gotta you can't fake boxing. Well,
• 27:01
  Speaker 3: you can fake a lot of things in life. You
• 27:03
  Speaker 3: can't fake, but you gotta want to do that. You
• 27:06
  Speaker 3: cannot utter any sort. It's not safe enough to not
• 27:10
  Speaker 3: be in there when you're not trying to be in there.
• 27:12
  Speaker 3: It is not basketball, it's not baseball, This is not
• 27:15
  Speaker 3: you know, this is none of that shit.
• 27:17
  Speaker 2: Boxing's boxing. Man, If you're not mentally prepared, you will
• 27:20
  Speaker 2: get hurt.
• 27:21
  Speaker 3: And I got bills and shit, so I can't afford
• 27:24
  Speaker 3: to get hurt the people who depend on me. I
• 27:26
  Speaker 3: make a lot of shit shape for a lot of people,
• 27:27
  Speaker 3: a lot of household, so I personally cannot get hurt.
• 27:31
  Speaker 3: I can't get sick. I can't fuck around and be
• 27:34
  Speaker 3: in boxing and get hurt on some dumb shit. I cannot.
• 27:37
  Speaker 3: Some people can, but I personally cannot sure.
• 27:42
  Speaker 5: And here's the thing, I'm not saying it enough. But
• 27:44
  Speaker 5: let's say that you know, you had the opportunity to
• 27:46
  Speaker 5: go to a gym, you found a trainer who is like,
• 27:47
  Speaker 5: you know, if you want to fight, you know, you
• 27:49
  Speaker 5: want to get into a forty forty year old fight
• 27:51
  Speaker 5: with another dude whatever, et cetera, and actually give you
• 27:55
  Speaker 5: a chance. You know, I'm not saying get into a
• 27:57
  Speaker 5: ring with you know, too many days you.
• 28:01
  Speaker 3: Go long in terms of the body, right, so we forty,
• 28:04
  Speaker 3: When forty, your body is different than when you're twenty.
• 28:06
  Speaker 2: If I was twenty, sure I would do it.
• 28:09
  Speaker 4: Why not?
• 28:10
  Speaker 3: But at forty our bones or plus I've got a
• 28:13
  Speaker 3: tory rotator cuff right now, television any surgery, so that's
• 28:16
  Speaker 3: how it's automatical for me. But even if it was
• 28:19
  Speaker 3: one hundred percent, I still wouldn't do it because our
• 28:21
  Speaker 3: bodies ain't built for that right now. It's the reason
• 28:24
  Speaker 3: why we don't see a lot of forty year old boxers.
• 28:26
  Speaker 3: The bodies ain't built for that. Like here, thing, going
• 28:29
  Speaker 3: from regular everyday stuff the boxing training will take your
• 28:33
  Speaker 3: boy to adjust. But going from boxing training actual boxing
• 28:37
  Speaker 3: is a whole different thing. And I don't think that
• 28:39
  Speaker 3: shocked to our bodies is safe.
• 28:42
  Speaker 5: That's fair, that's fair.
• 28:43
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 28:43
  Speaker 5: I mean when when Emily said thirty five in up League,
• 28:46
  Speaker 5: I'll be honest, like, I was like, great, really they
• 28:49
  Speaker 5: do that? I guess I wonder is it like a
• 28:52
  Speaker 5: gentleman's agreement, Like, look, we're both almost forty here, Like,
• 28:55
  Speaker 5: we're not gonna try to kill each other. We're gonna
• 28:57
  Speaker 5: have fun, We're getting the ring, we're gonna fight. It's
• 28:58
  Speaker 5: gonna be a good match. But I'm not gonna try
• 29:01
  Speaker 5: to knock you out. Don't try to knock me out.
• 29:03
  Speaker 5: I was just curious about what what what would that
• 29:05
  Speaker 5: would be like because I mean there, but also to
• 29:08
  Speaker 5: be fair, there's a lot of dudes out there who
• 29:10
  Speaker 5: are like, I still got it. Some forty you know something,
• 29:12
  Speaker 5: you were guys like, yeah, yeah, I still got it.
• 29:14
  Speaker 4: I go to the gym twice a week.
• 29:16
  Speaker 2: I could do this. I could.
• 29:18
  Speaker 5: So Yeah, No, I would love to talk to somebody
• 29:23
  Speaker 5: who does that thirty five enough.
• 29:24
  Speaker 4: We should probably get them.
• 29:25
  Speaker 5: On the show and you know, not lose the recording
• 29:27
  Speaker 5: and talk to me like what made you want to
• 29:30
  Speaker 5: get up here in the ring being passed thirty five.
• 29:33
  Speaker 5: Not that that's old by any means, but that is
• 29:35
  Speaker 5: old a ship for a boxer, I'm sorry, it is.
• 29:37
  Speaker 4: It is old as shit to.
• 29:38
  Speaker 2: Be I'm cool.
• 29:40
  Speaker 3: With all the respect to those that type that were
• 29:42
  Speaker 3: just pay God bless you, but I'm cool.
• 29:46
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 29:47
  Speaker 5: Well, I uh, I took some time away from from
• 29:49
  Speaker 5: sparring just to to focus on to go back to
• 29:52
  Speaker 5: my roots and focus on getting fat again.
• 29:54
  Speaker 4: But you know, reconnect with the old me.
• 29:56
  Speaker 5: But but you know I did talking about this and
• 29:59
  Speaker 5: having the conversation with them.
• 30:00
  Speaker 4: I do miss it. I miss it.
• 30:01
  Speaker 5: So you know, I'm gonna have to get my schedule
• 30:03
  Speaker 5: right and get my uh get my fitness right, and
• 30:06
  Speaker 5: maybe head back there for a couple of lessons.
• 30:07
  Speaker 4: Nothing crazy, because yeah, you know.
• 30:10
  Speaker 5: Even just from like whatever and whenever I started five
• 30:13
  Speaker 5: years ago, the knees aren't the same, fucking shoulders aren't
• 30:16
  Speaker 5: the same. So and it's it's something that you have
• 30:21
  Speaker 5: to be physically fit from head to.
• 30:23
  Speaker 4: Toe, like literally I never knew how difficult that was.
• 30:26
  Speaker 5: So, like I said before, just so much respect for.
• 30:31
  Speaker 4: For anybody who decides to get into ring.
• 30:33
  Speaker 5: So a no thing that we usually do as a
• 30:37
  Speaker 5: pop pugilism segment. Usually we'll discuss all pick a movie
• 30:40
  Speaker 5: or TV show to talk about this one we not, okay,
• 30:46
  Speaker 5: not this one, we will for today, we asked Emily
• 30:48
  Speaker 5: her favorite boxing movie and she said, well, she considers
• 30:50
  Speaker 5: the movie Snatch, which is funny because I.
• 30:52
  Speaker 2: Just rewatched it. Have you seen Snatch? Jameson not off Top?
• 30:55
  Speaker 5: No, Yeah, it's a guy ritchie movie. It's it's a
• 30:58
  Speaker 5: it's a British movie. It's Jason Statham, Stephen Graham, Brad
• 31:02
  Speaker 5: Pitt playing like a romani character. He's doing an accent
• 31:06
  Speaker 5: you can't really understand.
• 31:07
  Speaker 4: And a big, big.
• 31:09
  Speaker 5: Part of that movie is a boy a boxing tournament,
• 31:12
  Speaker 5: like a bare knuckle boxing event.
• 31:15
  Speaker 4: Like that's a big through line.
• 31:16
  Speaker 5: It is a comedy. It's a crime comedy. There's like
• 31:19
  Speaker 5: silly capers. I will say it does have some of that,
• 31:23
  Speaker 5: like Tarantino want to be asked, like two cool snappy
• 31:28
  Speaker 5: snap snap dialogue. The movies that we got you know
• 31:31
  Speaker 5: for a while, you know, you're know what I'm talking about.
• 31:33
  Speaker 5: Like a lot of these movies just tried to be
• 31:35
  Speaker 5: tried to be Tarantino. You know, Snatch came out in
• 31:37
  Speaker 5: two thousands, so it's out of time, but just a
• 31:40
  Speaker 5: personal recommendation. It does hold up. Like I said, it
• 31:43
  Speaker 5: was just like two weeks ago that I watched it.
• 31:46
  Speaker 5: I was having fun. The jokes landed, the fight scenes
• 31:49
  Speaker 5: were pretty cool, and Ali Ron just saw you.
• 31:52
  Speaker 4: If you haven't watched.
• 31:53
  Speaker 5: It, if you're I don't know, if you're a Guy
• 31:54
  Speaker 5: Richie fan at all, have you seen it? I think
• 31:59
  Speaker 5: like that, that's that's my favorite movie of his, and
• 32:02
  Speaker 5: that's pretty much like the one I would recommend.
• 32:05
  Speaker 4: And then he did Lockstock in Two Smoking Barrels like
• 32:07
  Speaker 4: a few years before, but it's like the shittier version
• 32:10
  Speaker 4: of Snatch.
• 32:11
  Speaker 5: It's like he did the the trial run that then
• 32:15
  Speaker 5: he perfected in the Snatch. So I was like, all right,
• 32:18
  Speaker 5: well I don't need that first one. I have this
• 32:20
  Speaker 5: movie here, so but yeah, I'm glad that you brought
• 32:23
  Speaker 5: it up because it's it's a fun movie. I remember
• 32:26
  Speaker 5: when I was a teenager, I watched that first Transporter
• 32:30
  Speaker 5: movie with Statham and I hate it that I was.
• 32:33
  Speaker 4: It was terrible, it was awful.
• 32:36
  Speaker 5: And then I put on Snatch and I'm like, oh,
• 32:37
  Speaker 5: Stathum is actually cool, Like all right, all right, Stathum
• 32:41
  Speaker 5: you're you're good. So yeah, just just a quick to.
• 32:45
  Speaker 2: Round out the show.
• 32:46
  Speaker 5: Quick recommendation from two thousand Snatch, directed by Guy Richie.
• 32:50
  Speaker 5: If you haven't seen it in a long time, it
• 32:52
  Speaker 5: does hold up. So I was a little nervous about,
• 32:54
  Speaker 5: you know, fifteen years on how it to hold up,
• 32:56
  Speaker 5: but it was fun, so definitely check it out. All right,
• 33:00
