  Speaker 1: Ozzie starred.

  Speaker 2: Nick Kurios, tennis star, has publicly apologized after he was
• 0:11
  Speaker 2: suspended for failing a drug test. Now, this happened at
• 0:15
  Speaker 2: a tennis event in Spain back in June, and he
• 0:18
  Speaker 2: tested positive for cocaine. Now he's been suspended from playing, coaching,
• 0:22
  Speaker 2: and even attending tennis events. It happened a couple of
• 0:25
  Speaker 2: weeks ago, but Curios has confirmed himself on Instagram because
• 0:28
  Speaker 2: he said he wanted everyone to hear it from him first.
• 0:31
  Speaker 2: So in this big statement, he basically said that it
• 0:35
  Speaker 2: was a huge mistake. He takes full responsibility, and he
• 0:38
  Speaker 2: opened up about how how hard the last couple of
• 0:40
  Speaker 2: years have been and that his injuries have actually taken
• 0:43
  Speaker 2: a huge toll on his body. And he said because
• 0:46
  Speaker 2: his body hasn't been able to do what his mind
• 0:48
  Speaker 2: expects it to do, he's been struggling with that. He
• 0:51
  Speaker 2: also said that coming to terms with being near the
• 0:54
  Speaker 2: end of his career has been harder than he imagined.
• 0:57
  Speaker 2: So he says none of that excuses what he did,
• 1:00
  Speaker 2: called it a wake up call and said that he
• 1:02
  Speaker 2: would be stepping away from social media and public life
• 1:05
  Speaker 2: for twenty eight days to sort himself.
• 1:07
  Speaker 1: Just twenty eight.
• 1:08
  Speaker 2: I'm not sure why twenty eight, but yes, eight.
• 1:11
  Speaker 3: And I was watching that on the news last night,
• 1:12
  Speaker 3: and I did think if you're for any athlete, right
• 1:15
  Speaker 3: knowing that your whole career has been the most important
• 1:19
  Speaker 3: thing in the world to you, and at a certain point,
• 1:21
  Speaker 3: due to age or injury, you have to step down,
• 1:24
  Speaker 3: and that must be.
• 1:25
  Speaker 1: A big o.
• 1:26
  Speaker 2: Their whole identity was wrapped up in one sport. And
• 1:30
  Speaker 2: the thing is like, you know, you and I we
• 1:32
  Speaker 2: work in radio. But that can continue for many years,
• 1:36
  Speaker 2: not always sports.
• 1:38
  Speaker 1: But not by your choice. But sports careers are very
• 1:41
  Speaker 1: short lived.
• 1:43
  Speaker 2: Like a lot of footy players, for example, maybe play
• 1:45
  Speaker 2: for less than ten years ten if they're lucky.
• 1:47
  Speaker 3: Yeah, exactly right. And you know you're at the top
• 1:50
  Speaker 3: of your game. You've spent your whole teenage years training
• 1:53
  Speaker 3: and all of that, so.
• 1:53
  Speaker 2: Wouldn't yeah, yeah, I mean it would be. But again,
• 1:57
  Speaker 2: you've done the wrong thing. And I guess he's accepted
• 1:59
  Speaker 2: that and he's going to he's going to own it
• 2:00
  Speaker 2: and deal with the punishment. Now, Back in nineteen ninety six,
• 2:04
  Speaker 2: Tupac was famously shot and killed in Vegas. At the time,
• 2:08
  Speaker 2: he was with sug Knight. Now he was actually in
• 2:10
  Speaker 2: the car when Tupac was shot and killed. Now sug
• 2:13
  Speaker 2: Knight has come out and revealed what happened to Tupac's
• 2:15
  Speaker 2: body after he died?
• 2:17
  Speaker 1: What do they do with it?
• 2:18
  Speaker 2: So they cremated him, But that's not the story. The
• 2:20
  Speaker 2: story is after he was cremated, sug who helped facilitate
• 2:24
  Speaker 2: that cremation, took the ashes to Tupac's mum in a
• 2:28
  Speaker 2: Vegas hotel room, and Tupuck's mum rolled his ashes into
• 2:32
  Speaker 2: blunts and smoked him.
