Episode Transcript

Speaker 1 (00:00):
Darcy water grade sports talk hosters with Hello Darcy.

Speaker 2 (00:03):
I won't apologize for interjecting. I can't help myself. That's
what happens when you invite me in early. Should hold
me out the front there and wait till I'm actually on,
then let me in.

Speaker 1 (00:11):
I quite liked your take on AI replace it because
somebody sent me a text was a David who sent
me a text and said it's replacing AI is replacing
all the TV newsreaders your next and you said it'd
be very hard to replace you and your way off.

Speaker 2 (00:23):
Well, well, I think that AI can't think like I think.
Maybe in a few years it might be able to
be good luck replicating what's going on in my mind? Mate.
Do they have like any form of psychoanalysis for Ai?
I mean, can AI go and sit on a couch
and talk about as father, Because if AI starts thinking
like me, AI has in all sorts of trouble, it's

(00:45):
going to need a shrink.

Speaker 1 (00:46):
Yeah, Ai, I might also have dad issues.

Speaker 2 (00:48):
Yeah, who doesn't.

Speaker 1 (00:49):
Okay, So talk to me about the Championship playoffs. What's
going on.

Speaker 2 (00:52):
About the NBA? Yeah, crazinesses Game one of the Eastern
Conference Finals and So the next have turned around beating
the Cavaliers one fifteen one o four, which is nothing
big in itself except what eight minutes to go, they
were down ninety three seventy one, so they took this massive,
crazy run. They were on a thirty and eight run.

(01:14):
They took it to extra time and then overtime they
got it done. Fourteen three and one, one hundred and
fifteen four. It's like the largest when in playoff history
for thirteen years. Wow. Quite the turnaround, Yeah, quite insane.
So you got to respect nor you wake. They were
at home, so I think, you know, the likes of

(01:35):
maybe Woody Allen was in the crowd or Jay Zby
to impress somebody like that.

Speaker 1 (01:40):
I was talking about the NBA, but I was talking
about Southampton.

Speaker 2 (01:44):
Oh right, oship plaoffs, Oh rightly, bel there, I was.
I just the NBA. As soon as you see the championship,
I thought about the NBA. They've they got caught spying
very much like what happened back in the day to
the coach now. But that's ancient history to be though.
They have a drone. They were taking photographs and they

(02:04):
got rumbled. They got caught. So if they have tossed
them out, so they're not going to be in the
final and this last game is going to determine whether
they go up from the Championship to the Premier League
or not. But they're not playing, so they're not and
this is reportedly costing them four hundred and something millions.

Speaker 1 (02:25):
The argument that you were making earlier this week, which
is that they had to be kicked out because otherwise
it would pay off to cheat.

Speaker 2 (02:32):
Well that's it, and they were actually turning on them
and going no, no, no, we are coming back to
now we want a review, and apparently that's set down
to go tomorrow because they've got to get it sorted
out before that final championship game starts, so they need
to get it done. They've got a lot of work.
It doesn't look good for them, and I get the

(02:53):
feeling I don't know this for sure, and I'm just
hot taking as you do. They would are oh fine,
us who cares? Just just do it anyway? Ah, who
hold my beer? Go the fa That's the only o
they've got. Manchester City have been under the pump as
well for all sorts of dodgy and devious money behavior
over the years. And I don't know what that's going

(03:15):
to result in, but that's one hundred million plus and
that stork sounds well. But hey, Arsenal one, let's talk
about that. A well done Arsenal. Congratulations Darsy water grows
