Speaker 2: the weekend with baited breath to hear which is about
2:34
Speaker 2: South Beach Sarian's exploits, which is.
2:36
Speaker 1: Which is shocking to hear that it's that big of
2:38
Speaker 1: a deal. But I appreciate that. Thanks Drew. It's good
2:41
Speaker 1: to be back. Yes, we're gonna be We're gonna be

2:53
Speaker 1: a lot of brews, a lot to talk about. But
2:55
Speaker 1: thanks Drew, good to be back. It was. It was
2:57
Speaker 1: a very quick jaunt, as it turned out, not not
3:01
Speaker 1: helped by my well, it wouldn't be an arm and
3:03
Speaker 1: trip without some travel issues. Had a nice long delay
3:06
Speaker 1: on the way there. You're American area, Yes, yes, it
3:10
Speaker 1: was American, not from Milwaukee. I want to say my
3:13
Speaker 1: first flat out in Milwaukee was was wonderful. But on
3:15
Speaker 1: my connection in Philadelphia, we're sitting on the plane drew
3:19
Speaker 1: for like two and a half hours with somewhat mechanical
3:22
Speaker 1: delay already boarded, which is you know, listen, Billy and
3:25
Speaker 1: I always joke about this, there's no better tradition now
3:28
Speaker 1: and in humanity in society than famous people trying to
3:32
Speaker 1: complain about their travel issues on Twitter and get sympathy. Well,
3:36
Speaker 1: obviously I didn't complain about it on Twitter because I
3:38
Speaker 1: don't have a Twitter right now, and we'll get to
3:39
Speaker 1: that as well. I still am not I still am
3:42
Speaker 1: not into my account unfortunately. But nia second, like sitting
3:46
Speaker 1: on the tarmac, we're ready to go, and the captain says, sorry,
3:50
Speaker 1: we've got a few more things to check out. Mechanically,
3:52
Speaker 1: we should be on our way shortly on time. Okay, great,
3:56
Speaker 1: no problem. Pretty happy about that, because a listen, if
4:00
Speaker 1: you got an issue mechanically, I'm happy you're checking it out.
4:03
Speaker 1: I'm not one of these guys I've said about the delay.
4:04
Speaker 1: I'm like, I'd rather you figure this out so this
4:07
Speaker 1: plane won't work correctly. But that turned into thirty minutes
4:10
Speaker 1: turned into an hour, turned into we finally have it
4:13
Speaker 1: under control, and I got one of these drew that
4:16
Speaker 1: I've never heard in all my years. I've never heard
4:20
Speaker 1: from anybody. I've never heard this delay reason at all.
4:23
Speaker 1: And we got this from the captain of which I
4:25
Speaker 1: thought he was trolling just to crack some jokes, because
4:28
Speaker 1: some of those guys have a sense of humor. Goes
4:30
Speaker 1: on the loudspeaker and says, we finally we do have
4:34
Speaker 1: thanks for your patients. We do have the issue figured out.
4:37
Speaker 1: It is now completed. Our mechanics are done with their check.
4:40
Speaker 1: Now we just have to wait for the paperwork. It'll
4:43
Speaker 1: be about thirty minutes for paperwork.
4:46
Speaker 2: I've heard that before.
4:47
Speaker 1: I've never heard the paperwork, and it was shocking to
4:49
Speaker 1: me that first of all, like that, okay, you gotta
4:52
Speaker 1: fill out the paperwork, and it's the guys at the
4:55
Speaker 1: airport and you knew like approximately what time how long
4:57
Speaker 1: would take for the paperwork. I'll tell you what. No, uh,
5:03
Speaker 1: you have not seen the wrath of a frustrated group
5:05
Speaker 1: like a group of Philadelphians on a plane waiting to
5:08
Speaker 1: go and they have to hear about their paperwork being
5:10
Speaker 1: the reason for delay, but I got there, but Drew
5:13
Speaker 1: eventually made it. It was great to see my great
5:17
Speaker 1: to see my cousin meet some of his friends. I
5:20
Speaker 1: kind of felt like a den like the camp councer
5:22
Speaker 1: a little bit, but I don't know why I did,
5:24
Speaker 1: because everybody was was doing great and good spirits and
5:27
Speaker 1: we had a great weekend as short as it was.
5:30
Speaker 1: Exploring Miami a little bit. Had a nice little spot
5:32
Speaker 1: by the Biscayne River, of which we you know, some
5:37
Speaker 1: guys were throwing some fishing lines in and doing some
5:39
Speaker 1: exciting things. It was a good time. Had some brand
5:42
Speaker 1: new experiences. I drove in uh, I drove in a
5:45
Speaker 1: Weymo for the first time.
5:47
Speaker 2: Drew Oh drove.
5:50
Speaker 1: Driverless cabs a driverless Uber, which was an odd experience,
5:56
Speaker 1: unusual to be riding in a car which there's no drive.
6:00
Speaker 1: It felt so totally unusual, but then it felt oddly.
6:04
Speaker 1: I got used to it very quickly. That that's one
6:07
Speaker 1: thing I was surprised about. Now they also have the Zookes,
6:10
Speaker 1: which is around Las Vegas that is no driver, So
6:13
Speaker 1: it's hard for me not to think. And Billy always
6:15
Speaker 1: jokes about this that one day will be living in
6:17
Speaker 1: the Jetsons, and maybe this is the next step. It
6:20
Speaker 1: does feel like we're kind of in the Jetsons. When
6:22
Speaker 1: I was riding around a driverless cab, it was very interesting.
6:25
Speaker 2: Were you freaking out because a lot of people freak out,
6:27
Speaker 2: and I think statistically they might be safer than human operating.
6:32
Speaker 1: Well, I don't think they've had they've had really any
6:34
Speaker 1: any accidents or issues yet, so.
6:37
Speaker 2: I mean, I think there's been a few that they
6:38
Speaker 2: kind of downplay them, but okay, there's been a few
6:41
Speaker 2: mess ups and like there was a waymow that was
6:43
Speaker 2: blocking some uh, emergency vehicles and.
6:45
Speaker 1: Stuff like that. Stuff like that where it's not I
6:49
Speaker 1: was impressed by how good it was and how much
6:50
Speaker 1: it knew what to do. It was an odd experience
6:54
Speaker 1: because it's just unusual to be riding around the cart
6:57
Speaker 1: there's nobody in the driver's seat, but it was it
7:01
Speaker 1: was you know what the great part was it was
7:04
Speaker 1: the least expensive ride because there was no driver to
7:07
Speaker 1: pay and and that makes you kind of shudder and
7:09
Speaker 1: think we talked about AI and all these things. It is,
7:13
Speaker 1: but then it makes you wonder, like is this gonna be? Man,
7:16
Speaker 1: are the dry. Is that whole in this rig gonna
7:17
Speaker 1: be taken away at some point?
7:19
Speaker 2: But well, I don't know if truck driving schools are
7:22
Speaker 2: doing great enrollment these days, because that's where that's headed.
7:25
Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean maybe, I mean that that's one of
7:27
Speaker 1: the things.
7:27
Speaker 2: About absolutely those guys don't need to take breaks, right,
7:30
Speaker 2: the cars don't need breaks.
7:32
Speaker 1: The one thing is they don't They can't go on
7:34
Speaker 1: freeways yet the way mose so I wonder if that'll
7:37
Speaker 1: that'll prevent it to some extent. They don't go on freeways,
7:39
Speaker 1: So that was another thing I think because it didn't
7:42
Speaker 1: go it just road regular side streets. We didn't go
7:44
Speaker 1: above forty miles an hour. I don't think at any point.
7:47
Speaker 1: M hmm. It was all right, but it was a
7:49
Speaker 1: little weird to be riding in it, for for sure.
7:51
Speaker 1: At first it was a little nervous, but then I
7:53
Speaker 1: was kind of surprised with how much it felt. I
7:55
Speaker 1: got used to it, and that didn't because it was
7:57
Speaker 1: working so well. So, yeah, Drew, you get nervous because
8:01
Speaker 1: you're like, all right, well, what's gonna happen? But think
8:03
Speaker 1: about it, when you're riding a train or you're riding
8:05
Speaker 1: you don't see the driver when you're riding, when you're
8:09
Speaker 1: riding on a plane, you don't see the pilot, you know,
8:11
Speaker 1: always up there.
8:12
Speaker 2: You hope you.
8:13
Speaker 1: Hope right, you know, but uh, it was it was unusual,
8:17
Speaker 1: but it was a cool experience because that, you know,
8:18
Speaker 1: you felt like pop, you felt like someone famous, because
8:21
Speaker 1: people are looking at the car, taking pictures and stuff
8:23
Speaker 1: like that, like looking because it's an oddity for them too.
8:26
Speaker 1: So I just figured i'd wave right back, you know, hey,
8:28
Speaker 1: I was course, you know, it's just it's not pretty funny.
8:31
Speaker 2: But how many guys were in it? Were you solo?
8:34
Speaker 2: There was three of us and I was in the front,
8:36
Speaker 2: which was which was kind of fun. That's a little bit,
8:41
Speaker 2: but it was all right.
8:42
Speaker 1: It worked out well and it was It was quite
8:44
Speaker 1: an experience. And uh, I mean, I think these things
8:47
Speaker 1: are gonna keep coming. I think they're gonna be you know.
8:49
Speaker 1: I only think that what will hold them back is
8:51
Speaker 1: not that people are nervous in them, because I think
8:53
Speaker 1: you'll get over that quick when you're in there, because
8:55
Speaker 1: that you see how well they work. Is that the
8:58
Speaker 1: people are gonna be upset that they in their neighborhoods
9:01
Speaker 1: like taking away drivers jobs. I think that's gonna be
9:03
Speaker 1: a big thing. I did do some more research through
9:05
Speaker 1: and read that a group of kids did play a
9:08
Speaker 1: prank on Weymo's. I think it's at one point where
9:11
Speaker 1: like like a bunch of people called a lot of
9:13
Speaker 1: them to one cul de sac and they all got
9:15
Speaker 1: confused and didn't know where to go and things like that. So,
9:18
Speaker 1: I mean, those little wrinkles will get smoothed out, but
9:21
Speaker 1: it does seem like a something that worked out. So
9:24
Speaker 1: that was a new experience for me. Other than that,
9:26
Speaker 1: just the you know, just the regular just the regular
9:29
Speaker 1: Armand's cousin bachelor party stuff as you would always. You know,
9:33
Speaker 1: we went to uh we went to Little Havana, went
9:35
Speaker 1: to the beach for a while, you know, went to
9:38
Speaker 1: an Armenian restaurant in Miami. Of course, you know you
9:40
Speaker 1: had to find one, of course, but with with some
9:42
Speaker 1: Armenian lounge singers that was that was a that was
9:44
Speaker 1: a trip. But it was a good time overall, and
9:46
Speaker 1: it was great to meet. It was great to touch
9:48
Speaker 1: base with the like I don't know if they're gen
9:51
Speaker 1: Z or young young millennials, but like the late twenties
9:53
Speaker 1: crowd a little bit younger than Billy, but just to
9:56
Speaker 1: see kind of like what one of the one are
9:59
Speaker 1: the touchdown topics for kids these days that they're talking
10:01
Speaker 1: about right when.
10:02
Speaker 2: You're trying to steer it to the ninety two Eastern
10:04
Speaker 2: Conference Finals.
10:04
Speaker 1: And let me tell you what, it wasn't better than
10:06
Speaker 1: I thought. Because the one thing, and Billy's gonna get
10:08
Speaker 1: a kick out of this, I was gonna wait to
10:10
Speaker 1: tell them. But the one thing that is undefeated for
10:12
Speaker 1: dudes is it didn't take long when I was there
10:15
Speaker 1: and you know, guys are doing different things conversing. They
10:18
Speaker 1: had had a nice set up. There was like a
10:19
Speaker 1: basketball hoop and a bunch of other things. It didn't
10:22
Speaker 1: take long for the Lebron versus Jordan combo debate to
10:25
Speaker 1: spark up. And that was just like, that's an undefeated
10:27
Speaker 1: topic for.
10:28
Speaker 2: Right in your wheel.
10:29
Speaker 1: It's just an under you know what. I kind of
10:30
Speaker 1: sat back and let let it, let it kind of
10:32
Speaker 1: cultivate for a while, because it's like, for dudes, there's
10:35
Speaker 1: an undefeated topic and you always find a way to
10:37
Speaker 1: get to it no matter what you're doing. One situation,
10:39
Speaker 1: what group it is, Lebron versus Jordan, finds a way,
10:42
Speaker 1: So so there you go. So it was a good
10:44
Speaker 1: time and uh, it was. It was quick and it
10:48
Speaker 1: was uh, you know, it was a little painful because
10:50
Speaker 1: of the travel delay at first. Other than that, it
10:52
Speaker 1: was it was nice to get straw back. Yeah, it
10:55
Speaker 1: was good.
10:55
Speaker 2: Clubs, bottle service. Did you do a night of clubbing?
11:00
Speaker 1: So I didn't, you know, I was on the hour
11:02
Speaker 1: twenty two of no sleep. But after dinner the first
11:05
Speaker 1: night I got there, a different group did go to
11:08
Speaker 1: a club to see a DJ. And what I was like, guys,
11:11
Speaker 1: I'm heading back, thanks and have a good night. You
11:14
Speaker 1: guys have fun.
11:15
Speaker 2: Oh you let the kids go out and have well.
11:17
Speaker 1: We did go to a cocktail bar before dinner, which
11:20
Speaker 1: was the listening lounge thing that I told you.
11:22
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, and let me tell you, Drew.
11:23
Speaker 1: It was cool. You would have loved it. It was
11:25
Speaker 1: a it was a cool vibe. All the records all
11:27
Speaker 1: it was all vinyl behind the bar, all right, so
11:31
Speaker 1: it was like, you know, it's like cool cocktails. Floral
11:34
Speaker 1: was dark and in the middle of the bar was
11:36
Speaker 1: the DJ set where the DJ was spinning the vinyl
11:40
Speaker 1: and it was like it was like it was like
11:42
Speaker 1: a like a low key vibe. It was chill, it
11:44
Speaker 1: was it was pretty good. I mean, I gotta say.
11:46
Speaker 1: The thing about Miami Drew, as you know, is they've
11:49
Speaker 1: got the cool spots. You know, They've got all these
11:51
Speaker 1: eclectic bars. They've all got this unique night life. Everyone's
11:54
Speaker 1: out and about. It's a lot of fun. But uh
11:57
Speaker 1: I I I did recused myself before the late night
12:02
Speaker 1: DJ jaunt. I didn't really. I wasn't really interested in
12:06
Speaker 1: State Atlanta. I felt kind of bad about it, but
12:08
Speaker 1: I was like, that's okay. I'm an old man. I'm
12:10
Speaker 1: going all right now.
12:11
Speaker 2: You're among friends.
12:12
Speaker 1: Yes, yes, and it's safe to say that your lovely
12:16
Speaker 1: bride is asleep. She's not up yet.
12:18
Speaker 2: Your parents aren't listening yet, probably listening yet. They might
12:22
Speaker 2: back up on YouTube. But was there a strip club mission?
12:25
Speaker 1: There wasn't for me. I didn't go. Now, if those
12:28
Speaker 1: guys went, you passed. If those guys went afterwards, I
12:31
Speaker 1: really wasn't aware of it, which was fine, you know,
12:34
Speaker 1: fine with me either way. I was like, hey, do
12:36
Speaker 1: what you're gonna do. I don't care, but don't know.
12:38
Speaker 1: I did not do it. I did not do it.
12:40
Speaker 1: I wonder if that's past the uh I wonder if
12:42
Speaker 1: that's like past the trend now.
12:44
Speaker 2: For That's what I'm wondering too, is because you know,
12:48
Speaker 2: the millennials and Gen zs aren't really strip clubs are
12:51
Speaker 2: gonna start. And it's funny to you have been seeing
12:52
Speaker 2: a lot on the socials about how strip clubs are
12:56
Speaker 2: hurting these days, and that's like a leading indicate indicator,
12:59
Speaker 2: kind of like Vegas of the economy writ large, because
13:03
Speaker 2: in order to go to the strip club, you gotta
13:05
Speaker 2: have some disposable income. And if people are worried about
13:07
Speaker 2: their disposable income and paying bills and making ends meet
13:09
Speaker 2: and paying student loans and that they might not be
13:13
Speaker 2: they might not be inclined to shovel out twenty dollars bills.
13:16
Speaker 1: It's a point. And when strip.
13:19
Speaker 2: Clubs are slow, it's often like ahead of like, oh,
13:24
Speaker 2: what do you mean everything's going great? And then it's
13:26
Speaker 2: a leading indicator, so it might be like it might
13:28
Speaker 2: be a lag, but then that tells you, you know what,
13:31
Speaker 2: other and the a spike in kind of like the
13:35
Speaker 2: lower end stores when they see business go up because
13:39
Speaker 2: like people are, well, we're going to go to ald
13:41
Speaker 2: because we got to.
13:42
Speaker 1: Save dollars free.
13:43
Speaker 2: Yeah, when those stores see profits rise, and other businesses
13:47
Speaker 2: for people with discretionary income see you know, a tightening,
13:51
Speaker 2: then that's those are indicators, and that's I've been hearing that,
13:54
Speaker 2: Like I heard that about Vegas a lot. But Vegas
13:56
Speaker 2: has its own problems. Yeah, and Vegas is getting competition
13:59
Speaker 2: out from South Beach, from Nashville, other different destinations like
14:05
Speaker 2: bachelorette parties. I don't know that they were ever that
14:07
Speaker 2: big on Vegas. I guess they were, but that's there's
14:09
Speaker 2: there's girls trips to Vegas, but always part of it,
14:12
Speaker 2: not as much as for guys. But then they go
14:14
Speaker 2: to like Charleston and Savannah and Nashville.
14:17
Speaker 1: Places they can you know, like fake Instagram pictures basically,
14:20
Speaker 1: I mean that's a kind of it. So I think
14:22
Speaker 1: you're right, Drew. I think it wasn't really a big
14:25
Speaker 1: topic either amongst they. Once upon a time you would
14:27
Speaker 1: have like fifteen guys, you know, late twenties going on
14:30
Speaker 1: a bachelor party. It was like a right of passage.
14:32
Speaker 1: This really wasn't for them. They'd rather spend their money
14:35
Speaker 1: on like you know, going you know, trying different food
14:38
Speaker 1: or you know, to spend money. They'd spend twenty five
14:41
Speaker 1: bucks on a cocktail then going in and doing it.
14:44
Speaker 1: So I'm like, yeah, into a strip clusbs. Not that
14:46
Speaker 1: the opposite sex wasn't you know, a top topic of
14:50
Speaker 1: well of their interest all weekend.
14:52
Speaker 2: But it was more especially the single guys. Yeah, it
14:54
Speaker 2: was like more like you know women, they'd see out
14:57
Speaker 2: things like that, well and like that. That's the thing.
14:59
Speaker 2: The dynamic of the bachelor party. You've got you know,
15:02
Speaker 2: the hard oh's that are you know, the riter dies
15:05
Speaker 2: for the groom and then like whoever else is kind
15:08
Speaker 2: of you're you're like on the fringe Cherry. Yeah, yeah, exactly,
15:12
Speaker 2: you're a fringe player in this. But you know you
15:15
Speaker 2: were were you also the oldest attendee.
15:17
Speaker 1: I was the oldest. I was also like, besides my
15:20
Speaker 1: cousin's brother, my other cousin, I was the only family.
15:23
Speaker 1: So that's always like a thing that's always you know
15:25
Speaker 1: interesting Now I wasn't the pride brother. Sometimes that you know,
15:28
Speaker 1: the in law comes on the bachelor party and that's
15:30
Speaker 1: a really awkward situation because then you're always like, I
15:33
Speaker 1: don't want to club when when that person's there. But
15:36
Speaker 1: I was the oldest. I was the only other brother.
15:38
Speaker 1: But these were mix of his college friends who even
15:40
Speaker 1: though he's from originally southern California, he went to UW
15:44
Speaker 1: so he had a lot of a lot of friends
15:45
Speaker 1: from Wisconsin, oddly enough, no wisconsinights though they're like Chicago plants,
15:51
Speaker 1: all transplants, even though they were all Badgers. And then
15:53
Speaker 1: a lot of his friends from home from his California
15:57
Speaker 1: days growing up. So it was pretty interesting to to
16:00
Speaker 1: kind of witness the mix of guys. But yeah, I
16:02
Speaker 1: was I was the youngest, but there were some that
16:04
Speaker 1: were different stages of life. Some guys already married, some
16:07
Speaker 1: guys just got married, a couple with young kids.
16:09
Speaker 2: Now a lot of times it's what the guys who
16:11
Speaker 2: just got married with the guys who just have young
16:13
Speaker 2: kids that are blowing it out and like they need
16:16
Speaker 2: that release, Like they say, they don't get to go
16:18
Speaker 2: out a lot and drop the hammer and they don't
16:20
Speaker 2: get to So I get that that's different dynamics totally
16:24
Speaker 2: ul bachelor parties and I haven't been to a bachelor
16:26
Speaker 2: party in forever, and it was it was like that too.
16:28
Speaker 1: When you're also you know, it's a big air and
16:30
Speaker 1: b rental, Airbnb rental, So you know, you always have
16:32
Speaker 1: the guys that were like, all right, a little bit
16:34
Speaker 1: more like let's make sure we clean as we go,
16:37
Speaker 1: thinking about while we're gonna make breakfast the next morning,
16:39
Speaker 1: you know, like I'm responsible, like make sure where's the
16:42
Speaker 1: garbage gotta go to make sure the rules are just.
16:45
Speaker 1: So you had a mix of those guys, some that
16:46
Speaker 1: that just weren't even aware of it obviously, that were
16:49
Speaker 1: just in the pool of the whole time that I like,
16:50
Speaker 1: until like the last few hours, didn't even get the
16:52
Speaker 1: guy's name. So there's always that mix that makes an
16:55
Speaker 1: eclectic mix. But uh, in the end, you know, it
16:58
Speaker 1: was the same dudes drinking beer, watching clips of jackass
17:01
Speaker 1: on on YouTube, you know what I mean like that,
17:05
Speaker 1: But it was a good time. It was great and
17:07
Speaker 1: in the end, you know, I remember my cousin was
17:09
Speaker 1: asking me. He's like, you know, Arben, you've been to
17:10
Speaker 1: Miami or like bachelor parties, like come help me think
17:13
Speaker 1: of ideas and events. Like in the end, you stress
17:17
Speaker 1: yourself thinking like we have to get a schedule together
17:19
Speaker 1: full of events and things to do. In the end,
17:21
Speaker 1: these guys are buddies. They just want to be together
17:23
Speaker 1: sitting there drinking beers. We just want to be together,
17:26
Speaker 1: sharing time together. That's what's great about dudes, sitting around
17:29
Speaker 1: and doing their things. So it was a great time.
17:31
Speaker 1: It was great to be with these guys.
17:33
Speaker 2: Great to be paid to be a fly on the
17:35
Speaker 2: wall for the Lebron Jordan discussions. Now you're sitting on
17:37
Speaker 2: the sidelines waiting to weigh in.
17:39
Speaker 1: Well I tried. I felt my role, Drew was to
17:42
Speaker 1: get proper contexts in both regards and to try and
17:45
Speaker 1: lay in my information as well as I could. Well,
17:47
Speaker 1: don't forget about this, guys, don't forget about this and
17:49
Speaker 1: let them keep going. So that's kind of where I
17:51
Speaker 1: was at with that one. A lot of fun though,
17:54
Speaker 1: good times. It was interesting though you think about what
17:56
Speaker 1: are the big topics that are big amongst the youth
17:59
Speaker 1: these days, And it was true. It was that it
18:02
Speaker 1: was that feeling that we're not gonna be able to
18:04
Speaker 1: own homes because they're way too much money. And these
18:07
Speaker 1: kids all came from places that, like, you know, they
18:10
Speaker 1: grew up in nice places, but they're like all saying
18:13
Speaker 1: that the price of home ownership really made a lot
18:16
Speaker 1: of the nervous and they were talking about, like, you know,
18:18
Speaker 1: we're not gonna have money to own a house because
18:20
Speaker 1: of the way things are going. So that that plus
18:22
Speaker 1: a lot of things, you really get a sense of
18:24
Speaker 1: what's what's burdening young people these days. So it's pretty
18:28
Speaker 1: interesting to hear that. But they're also used to paying
18:30
Speaker 1: for certain things that once upon time we didn't need
18:33
Speaker 1: to pay for. Well, for sure, delivery services, phone ride services, obviously,
18:37
Speaker 1: cell phones, things like that, subscriptions, things like that, so
18:41
Speaker 1: you know it, it was a good time.
18:43
Speaker 2: Yeah, that is a trend. I've talked to some younger
18:45
Speaker 2: folks that some young couples are saying, well, we're not
18:49
Speaker 2: gonna have kids because we don't think we can afford them, right,
18:52
Speaker 2: We're not and we're probably never going to own a home.
18:54
Speaker 2: And it's like they were kind of casting their they're
18:57
Speaker 2: looking at the future that way. It used to be like, oh,
18:58
Speaker 2: I'm gonna get married, buy a house, and have kids.
19:01
Speaker 2: Like now it's like, well, we'll get married, but then
19:03
Speaker 2: we're just gonna you know, yeah, travel and cruise through
19:07
Speaker 2: or and rent instead of own. Yeah, for sure.
19:09
Speaker 1: One guy, one guy was up in the morning talking
19:10
Speaker 1: to was a I assistant for what he needed to
19:13
Speaker 1: get done for the day. Like that was another thing
19:15
Speaker 1: that was different for me. Oh boy, I'm like, who
19:16
Speaker 1: is this Guy's like, he's my AI assistant that he
19:18
Speaker 1: just he goes through my schedule, he calls. I'm like,
19:21
Speaker 1: do you give me your number? I'm like, aren't you
19:23
Speaker 1: worried he's gonna call people that you don't want to call.
19:25
Speaker 1: Then I was telling my story about my Twitter being
19:27
Speaker 1: hacked obviously, and oh boy, and they were joking. They
19:29
Speaker 1: love that topic because it was some of them were
19:31
Speaker 1: trying to be interested in the tech aspect. None of
19:33
Speaker 1: them worked a Twitter. Unfortunately. That was my hope and
19:35
Speaker 1: dream that one of them knew somebody in Palo Alto.
19:37
Speaker 2: That was like that would have been good. Yeah.
19:39
Speaker 1: I was like, do you guys have any connections? But
19:41
Speaker 1: they're like no, But they're like, you know, that's just
19:42
Speaker 1: the way it is now and hackers and things like that.
19:45
Speaker 1: So they thought that was funny. They were they were
19:47
Speaker 1: interested in it. They thought it got a kick out
19:48
Speaker 1: of the fact that it was like after knowing me
19:51
Speaker 1: for twenty hours, they're like, this is this doesn't sound
19:53
Speaker 1: like you at all, crypto like trying to floss big
19:56
Speaker 1: benzes or whatever it was. I'm I got no, it's
19:59
Speaker 1: just so ridiculous, hilarious.
20:01
Speaker 2: Good to have you back.
20:02
Speaker 1: Yeah, thanks, it's good to be back.
20:03
Speaker 2: It was good to have you back. Quick jaunt, What
20:06
Speaker 2: did you miss? Well, Bruce swept the Rockies.
20:08
Speaker 1: That was great.
20:10
Speaker 2: Banana ball invaded American Family Field, Billy took part as
20:13
Speaker 2: on that a lot of people and a lot of
20:14
Speaker 2: people enjoyed, huge crowds. I talked to a friend who
20:18
Speaker 2: was there yesterday and said it was a blast, an
20:21
Speaker 2: absolute blast. Well, nows are a blast too, but but
20:26
Speaker 2: but Savanna bananas were different and this wasn't even the
20:28
Speaker 2: Savannah bananas. The party animals were in the house. Yes,
20:32
Speaker 2: it was just the the league right to the team,
20:34
Speaker 2: the local beach coconuts, and the party animals.
20:37
Speaker 1: Yeah true, I mean it looked looked like a lot
20:38
Speaker 1: of fun. People still like getting together.
20:40
Speaker 2: Especially and yeah, we're going to talk about that spectacle
20:43
Speaker 2: as we move forward. Today, we got the NBA Finals
20:45
Speaker 2: Game three tonight as the Knicks trying to continue their
20:50
Speaker 2: epic quest and the Spurs try to stave off the inevitable.
20:54
Speaker 2: Although how inevitable is it? We'll talk. I'm old enough
20:56
Speaker 2: to remember when the Bucks were down to However, the
20:59
Speaker 2: Bucks lost the first two that wrote on the road
21:00
Speaker 2: not at home. So that's a little bit of a
21:02
Speaker 2: mitigating circumstance there. We got that to talk about. Hunter
21:05
Speaker 2: Bomberart's going to join us for the entire seven o'clock hours.
21:07
Speaker 2: Who will have a lot of baseball talk. We'll have
21:09
Speaker 2: Dolf drop it. Oh, I take it back. Golf is
21:10
Speaker 2: not in today because Dolph is playing golf. Doll's playing
21:12
Speaker 2: golf as well. So it's it's the it's a Monday
21:15
Speaker 2: in June, as a dear friend of ours referred to
21:19
Speaker 2: the disease Tour tour, the disease Tour is well, it's
21:22
Speaker 2: in full swing now because every Monday and a lot
21:25
Speaker 2: of Thursdays you can play in golf outings. And Billy's
21:27
Speaker 2: raising money for good cause.
21:28
Speaker 1: And Billy said, obviously he's in, Butch's outing today. He's
21:30
Speaker 1: going to try to hop on with us at some
21:32
Speaker 1: point when he can. Yeah, maybe we could have him
21:34
Speaker 1: in for a time, tell us about the event, what
21:35
Speaker 1: he thought about the weekend.
21:36
Speaker 2: Things that would be a good call. And we have
21:38
Speaker 2: game balls and kicks to the balls as well, and uh,
21:41
Speaker 2: Billy filled in for me on my television program that
21:44
Speaker 2: I do on Saturdays here, not my television program, but
21:48
Speaker 2: do Big twelve Sports Saturday. He was in on WS
21:51
Speaker 2: on twelve in Milwaukee. He was in for me because
21:53
Speaker 2: I was attending a wedding. Now, Arman, you're the guru
21:56
Speaker 2: of weddings and bachelor parties given your experience. Yes, and
22:00
Speaker 2: I have a question for you because there was something
22:01
Speaker 2: I went to a wedding Saturday is something I've never
22:03
Speaker 2: seen before. All Right, we'll discuss as we move forward.
22:07
Speaker 2: We'll take your game balls and kicks the balls you
22:08
Speaker 2: want to get them to us. There's no sense waiting.
22:10
Speaker 2: We might as well just open it up. Nicolay lot
22:11
Speaker 2: dot com talking text lines open eight seven seven seven three.
22:15
Speaker 2: Skating shorthanded for a little bit this morning as Dolf
22:18
Speaker 2: and Billy are playing some golf. But Hunter's going to
22:21
Speaker 2: be here for the entire seven o'clock hour, so his
22:24
Speaker 2: reports brought to us by import minded. We'll talk a
22:27
Speaker 2: lot of brewers as they get ready to play in Vegas.
22:29
Speaker 2: Another fun city and it's not South Beach. It's got
22:32
Speaker 2: its own vibe. But they're in Vegas. Well they're in
22:34
Speaker 2: outside of Vegas, but we'll talk about that whole thing,
22:36
Speaker 2: that whole dynamic of this weekend. As the Brewers continue
22:39
Speaker 2: to roll, Buckle up, We're gonna have some fun. It's uh,
22:42
Speaker 2: it's the summertime. Living is easy, and you're in the huddle.
22:45
Speaker 2: Fox Sports Radio Wisconsin. A Monday edition of the Hull
23:00
Speaker 2: Fox Sports Radio Wisconsin coming at you as we begin
23:05
Speaker 2: another week here. It is the eighth of June already
23:07
Speaker 2: blink and you're gonna miss June. Let's enjoy it while
23:10
Speaker 2: we can.
23:11
Speaker 1: Flying by Drew, it is it is.
23:14
Speaker 3: Uh.
23:14
Speaker 2: It was a great weekend, pretty good weather, like we
23:17
Speaker 2: mentioned banana bag, great weekend for the Brewers in Denver
23:21
Speaker 2: as they swept the Rockies as they should. Getting so
23:24
Speaker 2: used to this type of success, Brewers off to their
23:27
Speaker 2: best start, the fastest they've ever reached forty wins.
23:30
Speaker 1: That's crazy. It felt like last year we kept saying
23:32
Speaker 1: stats like that, and I know the Brewers winning streak
23:34
Speaker 1: came a little bit later, but man, all of a sudden,
23:37
Speaker 1: again it happened this year and I'm like, this was
23:38
Speaker 1: the fastest start to forty wins. I thought we've done
23:41
Speaker 1: that we've had so much winning around here drew as
23:43
Speaker 1: Bruis fans the last number of years. Now, I get it,
23:47
Speaker 1: not to the World Series. We've had so much of
23:48
Speaker 1: it and it's been quite amazing. It's almost like old hat.
23:51
Speaker 1: It's like we're used to it. It's like we're the
23:53
Speaker 1: nineties Braves now we're just used to.
23:54
Speaker 2: Win the division and have a huge run differential.
23:58
Speaker 1: Just reminder of fans that this is not easy to
24:00
Speaker 1: do it and it's still remarkable. I don't want fans to.
24:03
Speaker 2: Get so used to be thinking, all right, well, the
24:05
Speaker 2: Brewers can play better. Yeah, absolutely, based on their run differential,
24:09
Speaker 2: they should be two wins better than they are.
24:11
Speaker 1: How about that they're still yeah.
24:13
Speaker 2: I mean it's June eighth and they're ahead in the
24:15
Speaker 2: division by five games.
24:16
Speaker 1: Remarkable and it's an indicator.
24:18
Speaker 2: And again, a lot of ball game left, obviously, and
24:21
Speaker 2: I'm not counting out anybody. Well, I'll count out the Pirates.
24:24
Speaker 2: Even though they're better, I still think that the season
24:26
Speaker 2: is going to catch up to them at some point.
24:28
Speaker 2: They're two games over five hundred now, but they're tied
24:30
Speaker 2: with the Cubs. It's Brewers, Cardinals, Pirates, Cubs and then
24:34
Speaker 2: the Reds who have dropped below five hundred. So it's
24:37
Speaker 2: for a long time until like this past week, the
24:41
Speaker 2: NL Central had every team with a winning record.
24:43
Speaker 1: Yeah, and that's somewhat normalized a bit. I mean, there's
24:45
Speaker 1: gonna be something four in a row. The Reds have
24:48
Speaker 1: been disappointing for some I know a lot of people
24:50
Speaker 1: were looking at the Reds as I contend the Pirates
24:54
Speaker 1: had their start. I don't really think them are the
24:55
Speaker 1: Cardinals are have the staying power. I do think Drew
24:59
Speaker 1: will they lost, The Cubs are going to make a
25:02
Speaker 1: run at some point. I think they have staying power
25:03
Speaker 1: to make their voices. Heard Mary chimes in on YouTube.
25:06
Speaker 1: Woke up here in the East Coast and saw the
25:08
Speaker 1: Cubs lost. It's gonna be great morning. Are ready to go, Brrewers.
25:10
Speaker 1: Thanks for listening, Mary in the East Coast, appreciate you. Yeah,
25:13
Speaker 1: not how you start, how you finish, that's right the
25:15
Speaker 1: back yesterday.
25:16
Speaker 2: Yeah, the the Cardinals and the Cardinals are a bit
25:20
Speaker 2: of a surprise right in there. But there. But if
25:23
Speaker 2: the if you're looking at the playoffs, right, it's too
25:25
Speaker 2: early to even think about the standings that much. But
25:27
Speaker 2: if you look at the playoff standings. The playoffs started
25:30
Speaker 2: the day the Cardinals would have a wildcard birth that
25:33
Speaker 2: would be one of the wildcard teams, and uh, the
25:38
Speaker 2: Pirates and Cubs are like right now a half game
25:40
Speaker 2: out of the wildcard.
25:41
Speaker 1: Well, it is pretty remarkable. I mean, I think early
25:44
Speaker 1: on drew in this season, when the Cubs started off
25:46
Speaker 1: so well, started so hot, I think we were all
25:48
Speaker 1: ready to say, Okay, this is going to be you know,
25:50
Speaker 1: dig your heels in. This is gonna be a dog
25:52
Speaker 1: fighting division. The Cubs are going to be really good
25:54
Speaker 1: this year, and we're going to have to prepare for
25:56
Speaker 1: a long battle. And how quickly the Brewers have been
25:58
Speaker 1: dispatched them. I mean it's not over obviously, by any
26:01
Speaker 1: search of the imagination. We're talking about June. But you know,
26:05
Speaker 1: you mentioned they're up five in the division and the
26:07
Speaker 1: Cardinals and they're up seven and a half in the Cubs.
26:09
Speaker 1: How quickly that changed is so remarkable to me, on
26:13
Speaker 1: two hands, one hand, how quick the Brewers flipped the
26:16
Speaker 1: switch and started winning, And how much the Cubs have
26:19
Speaker 1: self destructed out of you know, out of thin hair.
26:22
Speaker 1: It's amazing. Now it's a long season. I expect them
26:25
Speaker 1: to still be a factor as we go on, but
26:27
Speaker 1: it was, it was. It's been pretty shocking to see
26:29
Speaker 1: how quickly that that happened. I wouldn't have expected to
26:32
Speaker 1: city on June eighth with that type of lead, you know,
26:35
Speaker 1: when we're in the first few weeks of the season. Yeah,
26:38
Speaker 1: but but it's been great. We're I'm mad about it.
26:40
Speaker 1: It's just been unbelievable.
26:42
Speaker 2: And miss Uh added another chapter on Saturday as he
26:47
Speaker 2: Uh he touched one hundred and three point seven in
26:52
Speaker 2: the third inning, which is the fastest pitch recorded since
26:58
Speaker 2: the stat tracking pitch tracking again in two thousand and eight.
27:01
Speaker 1: And he had another layer right Drew, the dog layer.
27:03
Speaker 1: I mean, it's one thing to be like that, but
27:05
Speaker 1: how much she how much you gotta love a kid
27:08
Speaker 1: that is dotting one o four, you know, one oh
27:09
Speaker 1: three and a half one oh four. He's he's in
27:13
Speaker 1: this kind of era, cy Young race carrying his team,
27:18
Speaker 1: has taken that mantle, He's done all that, but he's
27:21
Speaker 1: also staring down the dugout to the back to back Bill.
27:25
Speaker 2: He told Bill like, don't come out here.
27:26
Speaker 1: I'm here, this is my ball. I'm here, And deep down,
27:31
Speaker 1: Drew You've got to know that Murph loved it right
27:33
Speaker 1: deep down, especially that he came through and struck out the.
27:35
Speaker 2: Side ninety one. He was at ninety one pitches. He
27:38
Speaker 2: struck out a batter. It was like a walk in
27:40
Speaker 2: a base hit. So first and third and he's like,
27:43
Speaker 2: you're not coming to get me.
27:44
Speaker 1: That's what the old coach would say. You know, I
27:45
Speaker 1: wanted to see how you're gonna respond. I did that
27:47
Speaker 1: on purpose.
27:48
Speaker 2: I wanted to see what you were made of, like
27:49
Speaker 2: you know, and it was the middle of the order. Yeah,
27:51
Speaker 2: and he's like, no, I'm not I'm not giving up
27:54
Speaker 2: the ball. And that's here. You're right. He showed some
27:56
Speaker 2: dog like you're throwing one hundred and three point four
27:59
Speaker 2: or whatever it is, and you're you're doing that dropping
28:02
Speaker 2: his era at a one point five.
28:04
Speaker 1: Amazing And to Billy's point, it always shows you that
28:06
Speaker 1: he's a type of guy that's not afraid of the
28:07
Speaker 1: big stage. He has never been since he came up.
28:10
Speaker 1: He's never been afraid to meet the moment. And he
28:13
Speaker 1: did it again. You know, not that the Rockies are
28:15
Speaker 1: a big stage, but meeting the moment of art you've
28:17
Speaker 1: never pitched at altitude before and never been there and said,
28:20
Speaker 1: you know, no, I mean like, you can be you
28:22
Speaker 1: can have the you can have confidence, you can have moxie,
28:25
Speaker 1: you can have determination. As a young player, it's still
28:28
Speaker 1: a lot to look back at a manager like Murph
28:30
Speaker 1: and tell him no, Like as a young player, that's all.
28:32
Speaker 1: That takes a lot of qua wos and he had
28:35
Speaker 1: him and you just gotta love that attitude in a
28:37
Speaker 1: young player. There's a little bit of you know, mis
28:40
Speaker 1: has the whole Pokemon thing. He's gangly, he's a little
28:42
Speaker 1: dorky like that, that quality to him. But you can
28:44
Speaker 1: see the eye of the tiger him on the mount
28:46
Speaker 1: and and you don't always expect it because of that,
28:48
Speaker 1: and you love to.
28:48
Speaker 2: See it every day. Is like we talked about him
28:50
Speaker 2: being must see TV and like ninety eight pitches fifty
28:54
Speaker 2: two over one hundred miles an hour, which is second
28:57
Speaker 2: in the pitch tracking era to his performance on May
29:00
Speaker 2: when he threw fifty seven pitches over one hundred. He
29:03
Speaker 2: also threw forty five pitches at one hundred and one
29:07
Speaker 2: or higher, which is insanity. And that's maybe that had
29:11
Speaker 2: some the altitude was a factor there, perhaps, but man,
29:15
Speaker 2: that was a moment, and that's it. The seasons are
29:17
Speaker 2: made of moments. And for the Brewers, now there's that
29:20
Speaker 2: feeling well again, they're playing the Rocket. The Rockies aren't good. No, no,
29:24
Speaker 2: not that that ballpark is known for. You know, I've
29:28
Speaker 2: always maintained. And when you when you're sitting in the
29:30
Speaker 2: press box at my high and or at the altitude
29:33
Speaker 2: at course Field, and you look out the field itself,
29:39
Speaker 2: the outfield looks bigger than any other outfield, it's just
29:43
Speaker 2: it's like cavernous. It's huge. But you know, the ball travels.
29:46
Speaker 2: And but in talking to people and covering games there
29:50
Speaker 2: and stuff, it's not so much the bombs that hurt you.
29:52
Speaker 2: It's the dinkers and dunkers and it's just the hits
29:55
Speaker 2: and the gaps, and man.
29:57
Speaker 1: It's at this weekend. Was it yesterday? Was it right?
30:00
Speaker 1: He Full or Garrett? I can't remember who it was
30:02
Speaker 1: that hit a bass got a ground ball base hit
30:04
Speaker 1: that looked like pretty routine, goes all the way to
30:06
Speaker 1: the wall because it was such an long angle. Next thing,
30:10
Speaker 1: you know, Vaughn's rounding and scoring on it. I remember
30:12
Speaker 1: thinking to myself, that's an odd looking thing. Either the
30:14
Speaker 1: guy misplayed it. That's just the way Coursefield, and of
30:16
Speaker 1: course Coursefield plays a big, big, big outfield and go
30:19
Speaker 1: to the base and you know, that's the thing. And
30:22
Speaker 1: the Friday game was a Friday game, the extra inning game.
30:26
Speaker 2: That was the one you had to come back when
30:28
Speaker 2: comeback and so yeah, they were kind of doing nothing
30:31
Speaker 2: and then lo and behold they came back and won.
30:33
Speaker 1: And it's like that.
30:34
Speaker 2: I remember our pal Jeff Sorillo, the Icon, telling me
30:37
Speaker 2: when he played for a while in Colorado he came
30:40
Speaker 2: to Milwaukee and we were talking about it and he goes,
30:42
Speaker 2: you don't realize how how tough it is, like emotionally
30:47
Speaker 2: like everybody, Oh, you get to hit it out to
30:48
Speaker 2: that's great. And he was on good teams with Larry
30:51
Speaker 2: Walker and Todd Helton and guys like that, and he's like,
30:53
Speaker 2: you don't you have to factor in. He's like playing
30:56
Speaker 2: a game at Coursefield is like playing three games, because
31:00
Speaker 2: you can be down eight to two and then you're
31:02
Speaker 2: up ten to eight, and then you lose fifteen to ten. Well,
31:05
Speaker 2: he's like the roller coaster. The emotions and the mental
31:08
Speaker 2: wear and tear is more intense because of the swings
31:12
Speaker 2: and because of the way things can happen and the
31:14
Speaker 2: way that usually if at American Family Field, the Brewers
31:19
Speaker 2: are up eight nothing in the fifth inning, you feel
31:21
Speaker 2: pretty good, like this one's in the bank. We can
31:23
Speaker 2: kind of start thinking about, you know, using the soft
31:26
Speaker 2: side of the bullpen, getting guys work and maybe getting
31:28
Speaker 2: guys out of the game. You don't have that at
31:30
Speaker 2: Course Field because you're not out of the woods, right,
31:32
Speaker 2: And he's like, you can never relax, and it's it's
31:34
Speaker 2: a different trip, which is why some people posit that
31:37
Speaker 2: they'll never win there. You know, they've had they had
31:39
Speaker 2: that October run, but some say that that ballpark is
31:43
Speaker 2: too much of as a cartoon and it's just too
31:46
Speaker 2: much to manage.
31:47
Speaker 1: Well, they had a one, they had a World Series appearance, right,
31:49
Speaker 1: yeah that October October they lost to the Socks. But yeah,
31:53
Speaker 1: I think the point is there that it would be
31:55
Speaker 1: tough to sustain. I mean it was always that that
31:57
Speaker 1: idea that it's a good place and.
31:59
Speaker 2: It's hard to pitching gets chewed up and you go
32:01
Speaker 2: through a lot more relievers, and it's just the why
32:03
Speaker 2: don't hear about the humid or days anymore? Like you
32:06
Speaker 2: to hear so much about the humid or yeah, and
32:08
Speaker 2: how the ball has to be I mean, these humidors everywhere. Now,
32:11
Speaker 2: do the numbers still affect the number?
32:13
Speaker 1: I'm sorry, Do the numbers still support the idea that
32:15
Speaker 1: balls are flying farther there? I would imagine they do. Yeah,
32:17
Speaker 1: I think there's It was used to be the concern
32:20
Speaker 1: that you had to do so much to change it
32:22
Speaker 1: with the humid door. And I guess because the Rockies
32:25
Speaker 1: have just been so bad. That's been the story in
32:27
Speaker 1: Colorado for a while now, and not that part of it.
32:29
Speaker 1: It's just been how bad the Rockies have been and
32:31
Speaker 1: how so many players that a good, seemingly good career
32:34
Speaker 1: is going that got signed their careers want to die.
32:37
Speaker 1: I mean, Chris Bryant is what I think about Aaronatto.
32:40
Speaker 1: Although these kind of you know, maybe gonna revive it
32:44
Speaker 1: somewhere else now, but it seems like that was the
32:47
Speaker 1: other part of it. And in the nineties, obviously, the
32:50
Speaker 1: the in the mid two thousands, you know, the story
32:54
Speaker 1: was always the ball is flying, the runs are scoring.
32:56
Speaker 1: The human or was also in an era where a
32:58
Speaker 1: lot of teams are scoring runs in baseball, so but
33:01
Speaker 1: good to get the win good to get the sweep
33:03
Speaker 1: obviously drew, and good to take care of business against
33:05
Speaker 1: the teams you have to take care of because that's
33:07
Speaker 1: not always a given, and the Brewers have shown that
33:09
Speaker 1: at some points the last few years where they haven't
33:12
Speaker 1: beaten teams. Now they go to Las Vegas to play
33:14
Speaker 1: in a minor league park against the A's and that
33:16
Speaker 1: should be another trip of an experience, another unique kind
33:19
Speaker 1: of vibe. So probably an unusual week for the Brewers,
33:22
Speaker 1: but they're happy to get wins.
33:24
Speaker 2: Yeah, eight seven seven, seven nine. We're getting a lot
33:27
Speaker 2: of interaction, a lot of early risers on this Monday.
33:30
Speaker 1: I'd like to see it.
33:31
Speaker 2: And uh, that was a big, big weekend. Lot to
33:34
Speaker 2: unpack from the weekend. I want to talk about Vegas.
33:37
Speaker 2: We're kind of fire up the game, balls and kicks.
33:38
Speaker 2: In fact, we might do that next. Uh, get that
33:41
Speaker 2: machine in, get get that lubricated and ready. You'd have
33:45
Speaker 2: a wedding question for we want some audience participation, and
33:47
Speaker 2: I do have a wedding question for Armin when we
33:49
Speaker 2: come back, because while Arman was at a bachelor party
33:51
Speaker 2: or on the weekend, I was at an actual wedding.
33:54
Speaker 2: Let's go and Uh, I gotta say, I'm going to
33:57
Speaker 2: another one at the end of August, but that's it
33:58
Speaker 2: for me, probably for the summer.
34:00
Speaker 1: Okay, Yeah, I just said the one on the two.
34:03
Speaker 2: Yeah, and it's uh. I was telling my daughter and
34:05
Speaker 2: her boyfriend over the weekend because they were with me.
34:08
Speaker 2: Get ready, I said, uh, I said, you guys are
34:10
Speaker 2: you guys are there in their mid twenties.
34:12
Speaker 1: It's gonna happen.
34:12
Speaker 2: I'm like, you guys are about to get blitzed, and like, oh,
34:14
Speaker 2: I think we have three or four this year already.
34:16
Speaker 2: And it's like Armine had eight one summer.
34:17
Speaker 1: That was my peak here. I think I was like
34:19
Speaker 1: thirty one. So that's kind of the age where if
34:23
Speaker 1: you've it's like you're still close enough to certain college
34:26
Speaker 1: friends and high school friends and then the people you
34:28
Speaker 1: meet professionally where you're just going to a bunch of weddings.
34:31
Speaker 1: There was that one summer where there was just so many.
34:33
Speaker 1: So yeah, get ready, the blitz is coming.
34:35
Speaker 2: The blitz is coming, all right, So I'll have the
34:37
Speaker 2: wedding question for armor, we'll fire up game balls and
34:39
Speaker 2: kicks to the balls and we're just having a damn
34:41
Speaker 2: Monday here. Billy's out playing golf. He's going to join
34:43
Speaker 2: us via the phone on his way up to Butcher's
34:45
Speaker 2: outing in Appleton for Children's Hospital, and golf is not
34:48
Speaker 2: with us today, So Hunter Bombguard's going to slide on
34:51
Speaker 2: in at seven o'clock and spend the last hour of
34:53
Speaker 2: the program with us. But we're not looking ahead. We're
34:56
Speaker 2: going to enjoy every moment today. It's the Monday edition
34:58
Speaker 2: of the Huddle. Fox Sports Radio Wisconsin put along the
35:03
Speaker 2: Monday edition of the Huddle Drew Els and Arman, sorry
35:05
Speaker 2: and bringing it to you. Billy out today, getting ready
35:07
Speaker 2: to play some important golf on our behalf. Yeah, Brian
35:11
Speaker 2: butch Children's Hospital.
35:15
Speaker 1: Outing, representing us for a very important cause.
35:17
Speaker 2: Yeah, And I wish Bushy. I hope the rain stays
35:20
Speaker 2: away and that they get it. They have a great
35:22
Speaker 2: day out there, because golf outings are dictated by the
35:26
Speaker 2: weather success or failure, if it's a nice day, even
35:28
Speaker 2: if the golf sucks. And I've been to many of
35:31
Speaker 2: those in the on the disease tour and back in
35:33
Speaker 2: the day the charity stuff. I haven't I haven't taken
35:36
Speaker 2: the sticks out. I've kind of like recused myself so
35:38
Speaker 2: the invites have dried up for me over the last
35:40
Speaker 2: like five or ten years. It's like one of those
35:42
Speaker 2: things like, well, if you know where you're not gonna come.
35:44
Speaker 2: We're just not gonna call you go play exactly, so
35:46
Speaker 2: you're gonna play a scramble. I've been on scrambles where
35:48
Speaker 2: it's like a seven hour round and it's just a
35:50
Speaker 2: lot of standing around and it's a slog. And then
35:53
Speaker 2: most places have had, you know, the dinners are quicker
35:55
Speaker 2: now and if there's like an auction or there's they
35:58
Speaker 2: try to streamline it because it can be a long day,
36:01
Speaker 2: long day obviously, because you're stopping at the like the
36:03
Speaker 2: holes where you know someone's sponsors are shot of course
36:06
Speaker 2: sponsors a thing like you know, and so those are
36:10
Speaker 2: it's a long day commitment and it's but it's always good.
36:13
Speaker 2: It's better than working, but being outside a lot of
36:15
Speaker 2: networking going on and those outings. But my invites have
36:18
Speaker 2: dried up, but I've been to them where even when
36:20
Speaker 2: it's a seven hour round like it can still be
36:24
Speaker 2: enjoyable as long as the weather is good. If it's cold,
36:27
Speaker 2: if it's rainy, if it's you know, if the weather's dicey.
36:31
Speaker 2: You know, even the golf can be good and the
36:33
Speaker 2: rest of it sucks. And yeah, and even if it's
36:35
Speaker 2: not like super cold, you're fine. But it's all about
36:37
Speaker 2: the weather, Drew. It's all about the weather. That's all
36:40
Speaker 2: that matters.
36:41
Speaker 1: It does seem like there's gonna be a nice window
36:43
Speaker 1: today for them. Might get some sprinkles here in this
36:46
Speaker 1: in the next hour, but eight o'clock to four and
36:50
Speaker 1: five looks pretty uh, pretty dry, so I think they'll
36:53
Speaker 1: get it in, which is the important part. That's at
36:54
Speaker 1: least down here. Of course, I always shudder when I
36:57
Speaker 1: am trusting the weather app, our local friends and meteorology.
37:00
Speaker 2: Yeah Apple, well you're you're a droid guy, but the
37:03
Speaker 2: Apple weather app doesn't really do you justice.
37:05
Speaker 1: I don't want to upset you know, all of our
37:07
Speaker 1: friends and you know in the in urology, wor Old
37:09
Speaker 1: in Mark.
37:10
Speaker 2: And you know, and you said meteorology. I thought you
37:14
Speaker 2: said urology, No meteorology. Very do you have like friends
37:17
Speaker 2: in the urology do we have them?
37:20
Speaker 1: Very different department, But you know, Broke and all of
37:22
Speaker 1: our friends.
37:23
Speaker 2: Urology don't pee on my leg until me the training
37:25
Speaker 2: that would be the urology department, but sometimes I do
37:28
Speaker 2: use the app.
37:29
Speaker 1: I apologize.
37:30
Speaker 2: Yeah, there's other apps, but then you got to go
37:32
Speaker 2: deeper into it, and I actually have. I created a
37:35
Speaker 2: list on X of my trusted weather sources in the area,
37:39
Speaker 2: and I can fire that up and see what they're
37:41
Speaker 2: putting into the universe.
37:42
Speaker 1: And you know, it's It's one of those things where
37:44
Speaker 1: it's like you want to fly always text Mark Baide
37:47
Speaker 1: and it's like, no, no, I'm not going to be
37:48
Speaker 1: that guy. I don't want to. Hey, I heard we
37:50
Speaker 1: had some severe weather a little bit over the weekend.
37:52
Speaker 1: I came home to a big tree fall in the backyard,
37:54
Speaker 1: well a branch of a tree. Okay, luckily it didn't
37:57
Speaker 1: really hit anything, but going to be yeah, but like
37:59
Speaker 1: there was some weather, and I know some people were
38:02
Speaker 1: upset about the the NBA finals. Mark had to pop in, like,
38:06
Speaker 1: give me a break, all right, this is a mere weather, Like,
38:08
Speaker 1: give me a break.
38:09
Speaker 2: That's an annual lament.
38:11
Speaker 1: Just I can't stand when people think what they're watching
38:13
Speaker 1: their living room is the most important thing.
38:15
Speaker 2: And the pretty much slept through that. I think, all right,
38:17
Speaker 2: then it wasn't didn't rest, Yeah, it didn't affect me,
38:21
Speaker 2: all right. So I did go to a wedding this
38:22
Speaker 2: weekend down a Kenosha and lovely outdoor ceremony, lovely day.
38:28
Speaker 2: And but at the reception, Arman, there was something that
38:31
Speaker 2: I've never seen and I got to see if you
38:32
Speaker 2: are aware of this, okay, because there are trends in
38:34
Speaker 2: the world. It was a buffet set up, as they
38:38
Speaker 2: often are late night snack or dinner at dinner buffet
38:41
Speaker 2: set up and they made the announcement that because they
38:46
Speaker 2: wanted to fire up the dance floor and women are
38:50
Speaker 2: most likely to be the first out on the floor,
38:53
Speaker 2: Ladies eat first, not by table and not couples. What
38:57
Speaker 2: women get in line, all women. And this was like
39:01
Speaker 2: it was a wedding of like two hundred probably people
39:03
Speaker 2: at least, and so dudes had to wait and the
39:06
Speaker 2: women came back to the tables and they were basically
39:08
Speaker 2: done eating by the time the dudes were still in
39:10
Speaker 2: line for the buffet. And that was it was social engineering.
39:14
Speaker 2: I had never heard of it either. I was wondering
39:16
Speaker 2: if it was a thing. But ladies first is the saying,
39:19
Speaker 2: and that's how it was at the wedding.
39:21
Speaker 1: Well, ladies first, obviously etiquette, A long time etiquette of
39:25
Speaker 1: ladies first, keep society, but not to eat.
39:27
Speaker 2: Yeah, because usually it's like you eat with the people
39:29
Speaker 2: at your table and like you, I don't go up
39:31
Speaker 2: by tables. But it was all women get in line first.
39:35
Speaker 1: Well I never heard this. And the idea that women
39:37
Speaker 1: are dancing more than dudes, I get with that. Concerned
39:40
Speaker 1: about lathering up the dance floor. Is that that's what
39:43
Speaker 1: they said?
39:43
Speaker 2: That was it like they wanted because they knew women
39:45
Speaker 2: would would likely to dance.
39:48
Speaker 1: Did it makes some women uncomfortable? They're eating in the
39:50
Speaker 1: men and they're not. I don't think any of them bothered. No,
39:54
Speaker 1: I think the part would bother me is that my
39:55
Speaker 1: table's not eating together. Though I'd feel kind of well yeah,
39:58
Speaker 1: I mean, you know, still one of those people that
40:01
Speaker 1: I can't if someone's food is coming, I really feel
40:04
Speaker 1: bad eating before, but his food is there. If you're
40:07
Speaker 1: a restaurant, I really, well, that's a little that's I'm
40:10
Speaker 1: really surprised.
40:11
Speaker 2: That it's ladies first everywhere and this was not a
40:15
Speaker 2: speedy line show like you would think it was.
40:18
Speaker 1: It was, well, I never heard that experience that I
40:21
Speaker 1: don't I don't think I'll be honest with you, I
40:23
Speaker 1: don't think i'd want to do that because I'd be worried.
40:26
Speaker 1: Am I going to make you know? Some people feel
40:27
Speaker 1: uncomfortable not eating or eating because they feel bad because
40:32
Speaker 1: then you have half the tables eating, and.
40:34
Speaker 2: Then well every table was in half of each time.
40:38
Speaker 1: It seems a little odd.
40:40
Speaker 2: It was an outdoor venue as well. I don't know
40:42
Speaker 2: if that is factors of the equation, but it was
40:44
Speaker 2: outdoor and I was wild. I've never seen it.
40:48
