  Speaker 1: at the Sphere on Friday, and uh, I felt really

  Speaker 1: connected because they had like three Super Bowl commercials yesterday. Yes,
• 0:09
  Speaker 1: they had the two with them and the T Mobile
• 0:11
  Speaker 1: and then there was that other commercial that played their song.
• 0:13
  Speaker 2: Ever Yeah, that was.
• 0:15
  Speaker 3: Like a crypto commercial, and all of a sudden it
• 0:17
  Speaker 3: was another T Mobile commercial and I'm like, too bad
• 0:20
  Speaker 3: they picked that song, so gave credit to T Mobile.
• 0:23
  Speaker 3: Watching the commercial, did.

  Speaker 2: You guys know to wear white?

• 0:55
  Speaker 1: which was great. I love that hotel. There's no smoking
• 0:59
  Speaker 1: at that hotel, and that's the hotel that we always
• 1:01
  Speaker 1: do giveaways with, and it was just fantastic. The only
• 1:05
  Speaker 1: thing is when we checked into the room to get

  Speaker 1: I mean. And there's eighteen thousand seats in there. It
• 3:07
  Speaker 1: was so get this. I buy my tickets. I learned
• 3:10
  Speaker 1: a lesson, a cool lesson. I thought about, you know
• 3:12
  Speaker 1: how you want to try to shop local, buy local
• 3:14
  Speaker 1: and everything. I bought my tickets from this guy, Danny
• 3:17
  Speaker 1: and I've talked about him before, from a company called
• 3:19
  Speaker 1: Tickets Unlimited, right. I bought tickets through him to go
• 3:21
  Speaker 1: see Hamilton. Whatever, there's stuff I really want. I go
• 3:23
  Speaker 1: to him. He's the same thing as Ticketmaster, the same
• 3:26
  Speaker 1: thing as stub Hub. And when I got to my
• 3:29
  Speaker 1: seats and he told me, he goes, these these seats
• 3:30
  Speaker 1: are great seats. You're going to be on the level
• 3:32
  Speaker 1: one whatever. And I get to my seats and there
• 3:35
  Speaker 1: are two they're four huge cameras in front of us.
• 3:39
  Speaker 1: And I text him and I go, what gives He's like,
• 3:42
  Speaker 1: those aren't supposed to be there, and he was like furious.
• 3:44
  Speaker 1: The people next to me had got their tickets through
• 3:46
  Speaker 1: stub Hub and they were talking back and forth on
• 3:48
  Speaker 1: text to the StubHub rep, and the stub Hub rep said,
• 3:51
  Speaker 1: we'll give you twenty five percent off your next show. Sorry, right, sorry,
• 3:55
  Speaker 1: you're in these you're in obstruction views. And I was like,
• 3:58
  Speaker 1: that sucks, and was pretty irritated because she was literally
• 4:02
  Speaker 1: behind a camera and she wouldn't switch with me. And
• 4:04
  Speaker 1: I'm like, we're gonna stand up anyway. If you stand up,
• 4:06
  Speaker 1: it's fine, but you don't want anything in front of you.
• 4:08
  Speaker 1: Now that I know you don't want anything in front.
• 4:09
  Speaker 1: So this guy, Danny, he says, I'm so sorry for that,
• 4:13
  Speaker 1: sending you new tickets, please accept. I'm like, what sending
• 4:17
  Speaker 1: me new tickets? He sends me two new tickets and
• 4:20
  Speaker 1: they're like, to me, the best seats. I was on
• 4:22
  Speaker 1: the second floor. Yeah, that's where you're supposed to go
• 4:25
  Speaker 1: and yeah, and I was like there was there was
• 4:27
  Speaker 1: like five rows ahead of me on the second floor
• 4:29
  Speaker 1: and I was in the sphere.
• 4:30
  Speaker 2: I felt like I was part of the sphere.
• 4:32
  Speaker 1: I just thought that was so because he's here he's
• 4:35
  Speaker 1: in Phoenix, and I thought, that's so awesome.
• 4:38
  Speaker 2: Yeah, you know what I mean, like like he did
• 4:39
  Speaker 2: that for me.
• 4:40
  Speaker 4: Yeah, to set the levels two and three, I think
• 4:42
  Speaker 4: is where you want to be for the shows in
• 4:44
  Speaker 4: the sphere. Because you're on one, you've got things above you.
• 4:46
  Speaker 4: You can't see the whole sphere. But when you see
• 4:49
  Speaker 4: the whole sphere, they use the whole sphere.
• 4:51
  Speaker 2: Did you get motion sick a little bit? Hold on
• 4:53
  Speaker 2: color one of four? Right now?
• 4:54
  Speaker 1: You get tickets at DC nine eight seven seven ninety three,
• 4:56
  Speaker 1: seven one oh four seven. I kind of thought, what
• 5:00
  Speaker 1: a great schwanding thing to go all of us to
• 5:02
  Speaker 1: see that show, because so fun. It would be so
• 5:04
  Speaker 1: fun to go. And then after the show I get
• 5:05
  Speaker 1: to meet all the guys in the band.
• 5:07
  Speaker 3: I saw that as a little jelly, a lot of jelly.
• 5:10
  Speaker 2: A lot of jelly.
• 5:12
  Speaker 1: So first of all, Kevin from Backstreet Boys, I thought
• 5:15
  Speaker 1: he was like six five sixty six, I'm.
• 5:17
  Speaker 2: Toallerant than him. How he's so cute, Flake's like, how
• 5:23
  Speaker 2: he's just like a man. He's just a nice man.
• 5:26
  Speaker 2: Also nice by.
• 5:28
  Speaker 3: Like pictures with them separately, not like as the whole group.
• 5:31
  Speaker 2: Okay, so I saw this once with Tater Swift.
• 5:33
  Speaker 1: We went backstage and go meet Taylor and there was
• 5:35
  Speaker 1: like a lounge setting and they were like, you guys,
• 5:39
  Speaker 1: just chill out. Tatter's didn't come around and a love
• 5:41
  Speaker 1: that's cool. Saw when she walks in, people just don't
• 5:43
  Speaker 1: go right together. So that's what this was. So the
• 5:46
  Speaker 1: Backstreet Boys, it was this private little area. It was
• 5:48
  Speaker 1: like a bar and there was maybe one hundred people
• 5:50
  Speaker 1: there and they were just walking around right and then
• 5:53
  Speaker 1: and then it was like eleven and I was tired, right,
• 5:57
  Speaker 1: So Kevin Cruise is over take her, sure, Kevin Ajor
• 5:59
  Speaker 1: actually you first? And Kevin then Howie and then Brian
• 6:02
  Speaker 1: and Nicker over there. And I was like, Blake, let's
• 6:03
  Speaker 1: just go. And She's like, no, I got sleep am
• 6:10
  Speaker 1: in South wak they have a Wholy boarding system.
• 6:16
  Speaker 3: Boarding system.
• 6:17
  Speaker 2: I'm interested in that.
• 6:20
  Speaker 3: You for that last night too. It's like we got seats.
• 6:24
  Speaker 3: I don't like it.
• 6:24
  Speaker 1: I don't know if I like it or not. I
• 6:27
  Speaker 1: like the room, but like Blake, God bless hers well.
• 6:30
  Speaker 1: She bought the tickets right away for this trip. She
• 6:34
  Speaker 1: spent a lot of money on tickets for Southwest, a
• 6:36
  Speaker 1: lot of money and then there's a lady I know
• 6:38
  Speaker 1: that was on the same flight. She paid eight hundred
• 6:41
  Speaker 1: dollars less than me.
• 6:43
  Speaker 2: Oh my gosh, why, like how?
• 6:47
  Speaker 1: Because Blake was like, well, I know you went in
• 6:49
  Speaker 1: lake room, like row, this isn't emergency row.
• 6:54
  Speaker 2: And I'm like, why because you.
• 6:56
  Speaker 3: You can take it in a premium seat, you gotta
• 6:58
  Speaker 3: pay more for.
• 6:58
  Speaker 1: You gotta pay more versus before were just the first
• 7:01
  Speaker 1: boarding group.
• 7:01
  Speaker 2: You get to pick your seat.
• 7:02
  Speaker 3: But it's there, like a twenty minute flight. It's not
• 7:04
  Speaker 3: that bad.
• 7:05
  Speaker 1: You could just I was like, you know what, it's
• 7:07
  Speaker 1: a forty five minute flight, Like, I don't care if
• 7:09
  Speaker 1: I'm sitting in the middle, it doesn't matter. If we're
• 7:10
  Speaker 1: going to Hawaii on Southwest, then I go I need
• 7:12
  Speaker 1: to get my leg room. Anyway. It was crazy, but
• 7:16
  Speaker 1: I highly.
• 7:16
  Speaker 3: Even would have been just fine in the middle row
• 7:19
  Speaker 3: because he's six fun.
• 7:20
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I highly highly recommend the Backshet Boys concert at
• 7:23
  Speaker 1: the Sphere. I won't almost bet almost any concert there,
• 7:26
  Speaker 1: but these guys and whoever put it together, Man, you guys,
• 7:29
  Speaker 1: it's something else.
• 7:30
  Speaker 2: It's something else.
• 7:31
  Speaker 1: I've I've been there, I've seen almost every artist there is,
• 7:34
  Speaker 1: and I gotta tell you this is better. This is
• 7:36
  Speaker 1: better than what I saw on the Taylor Swift documentary, Like,
• 7:39
  Speaker 1: I think this is better.
• 7:40
  Speaker 4: Well, do you know what I hear about the Sphere?
• 7:42
  Speaker 4: And I think it's true, is that pretty much every
• 7:44
  Speaker 4: show this Sphere is as big of an attraction as
• 7:47
  Speaker 4: the people who are playing in it because it's so crazy.
• 7:50
  Speaker 4: You've never seen anything like it. It's the best venual
• 7:53
  Speaker 4: you'll ever see anything in and it's weird to me.
• 7:55
  Speaker 4: It's like the people on the screen look more real
• 7:58
  Speaker 4: than when you're looking at the guys on Amazing.
• 8:01
  Speaker 2: I highly recommend it. I highly recommend it was funny.
• 8:04
  Speaker 1: I saw I got a d M from someone at
• 8:06
  Speaker 1: the Sphere and they were like, did you just move seats?
• 8:12
  Speaker 3: We had a bunch of I'm the guy in white
