You're so loud.
What's this?
Looks like a Rasseed.
Clafton skate.

SPEAKER_00 (00:51):
Four hundred and twenty-six dollars?
That's how much ice skates are.

SPEAKER_01 (00:57):
Oh my god.
Did she rent them or buy them?
Buy them.
Why?

SPEAKER_04 (01:04):
Is she gonna be?
It's okay.

Oh yeah.
Girl math.
She saved$185.

SPEAKER_01 (01:13):
What the fuck?
Bedtime.
That's you.
It's my bedtime alarm.
So you're telling me that is sheoh hold on.
Hold on.
So she bought ice skates.
Yes.
Now is is she gonna use theseice skates for the rest of her
life?
Well, yeah, probably.

SPEAKER_04 (01:31):
I don't think she's growing anymore.
She these the ones she had werelegitimately too small, so just
cram your feet in there.

SPEAKER_01 (01:39):
That's what I had to do.
No, it hurts.

SPEAKER_04 (01:40):
I know it hurts, but it's not hockey.
If it was hockey, I would havemade her wear them, but what you
doing?
Reading Josh's comment finally.
I've been waiting to read it tosee what he said.
Oh, on the Vikings game?
Yeah.
When he said the Vikings wereabysmal.
And then I said what did I say?

(02:01):
I said something else, and thenI said to be fair, I was just as
negative at the beginning.

SPEAKER_01 (02:09):
But they were winning the whole time.
Anyway, welcome back.
Sunday evening.
Daylight savings.
Oh, that was brilliant.

SPEAKER_04 (02:18):
Like when I woke up this morning, I was like, Wow.
Rested.
Feels good.
I hate daylight savings.
I think it's stupid.
Me too.
Everybody does.
That's the one thing the entirecountry agrees on, and we still
can't fucking pass the law toget rid of it.

SPEAKER_01 (02:36):
Well, you know, I don't understand why, but it is
what it is.
We can't pass anything.
Did you ever watch that AnthonyMackey interview when he's on
that talk show and he talksabout it's a woman interviewer?
She's interviewing him.
And it's pretty much along thelines of, you know, uh if a guy

(02:58):
touches you when we're out, whatdo you expect him to do?
You know, knock him out.
Or if a guy says something toyou that's disrespectful or
derogatory, what do you expecthim to do?
You expect him to say something,right?
I told you this is what wasgonna happen with that fucking
cord.
I can't find the longer one.

SPEAKER_04 (03:17):
It's probably right there, but I didn't look hard
enough.

SPEAKER_01 (03:20):
And he's like, Well, yeah, and then you know, what
about if I want a sandwich?
Well, you're gonna make daddy asandwich, and everybody claps.
So I that's that's what thatinteraction reminded me of.
Do you need me to find you thelonger chord?
No, that was good.

SPEAKER_04 (03:40):
You can't move your mic anymore.
I don't need to.
This is as far back as I want itto be, anyway.
Okay.

SPEAKER_01 (03:48):

the second week in a row.

two weeks.
Two weeks in a row.
That's consecutive.
That is a record record.
It's a brand new record.
It is definitely something we'regonna keep striving for here.
What time do the Vikings playnext week?
I believe it's at noon againbecause they play at home

(04:10):
against Baltimore.
So it should be at noon, CentralStandard Time.

SPEAKER_04 (04:15):
So we'll probably get three weeks in a row as long
as neither one of us is busy.

SPEAKER_01 (04:20):
Yeah, and I I don't have basketball on Sundays, it's
it's illegal.
So Sundays is e is easily thebest day.
Illegal.

It's just it's it's all overallexciting.
We can just jump right into kindof local sports, all over

For volleyball.
Uh Floodwood has a stud.

(06:10):
She was, yeah, that girl'sreally good.
She's going division two to UMD.
Yeah.
I mean, she's she's legit.
She probably could go play lowerlevel division one and probably
even probably at Minnesota.
She probably could.
At the university, yeah.
She's very, very talented.
She's she's very good.
She's coached well, her teamplays well.
I mean, she's the focal point.

(06:30):

Okay, okay, Dad.

SPEAKER_04 (07:44):
Alright, where were we?
Local sports, girls volleyball,chisholm out.
Beat by Floodwoods, stud ontheir team, go into UMD.
Probably could play D1 low levelif she tried, or even maybe not.
She's really good.
She is very good.
She hates Chisholm.
Chisholm out, Floodwood finalsagainst Northwoods.

(08:05):
Northwoods won.
Good job, Northwoods.

SPEAKER_01 (08:10):
Yeah, good luck.
Congratulations and good luck, Ishould say.
Football state, Barnum wonsingle single A for our section.
Barnum won.
Yeah, they're really good.
Nice.
Moose Lake won seven double A.
I think Piers won 3A.
And Cook County won nine mansection seven.

(08:33):
Nice.
So it's good to see them back atstate.
I always root for section sevenwhen they go down there.
Obviously, because we're insection seven.
So basketball starts soon.
So that'll start on the 10th.
Boy swimming will start I thinkthey don't start till like after
Thanksgiving.

SPEAKER_04 (08:53):
Yeah, they can do captain's practice, but their
actual practice starts the lastweek of November, I think.
So like the the week ofThanksgiving?
Yeah, because their first meetis always the relay meet on it's
usually that first Friday orSaturday in December.

SPEAKER_01 (09:15):
Oh I just thought that was really late when Gavin
told me that.
So I guess I should have talkedto you or Patrick about it.
So for those of you that arelocal and you were swimmers in
high school, they are lookingfor a JV boys swim coach in our
school in Chisholm.
Nice.
So if you're interested, goahead and apply for that.

(09:36):
Their varsity coach is one ofhe's pretty cool.
I like him.
Goofy, but definitely knows histhings, his things about
swimming, from what I've seenand what I've been told.
Oh yeah.
Growing program.
It is a growing program.

SPEAKER_04 (09:50):
It's always been a goddamn program and it will
always be a growing program.

SPEAKER_01 (09:54):
When you don't start swimming until you're in like
junior high, because they don'tlet the they don't have the
elementary kids doing itanymore.
That's what's gonna happen toyour s any sports program.
If we didn't have if we didn'thave basketball until you were
in seventh and eighth grade, youwouldn't have kids coming out
for basketball at all.
Oh yeah.

(10:14):
And that's boys and girls.
For I mean, that's why ourfootball numbers are so low
because you can't play footballother than flag football until
you're in seventh grade.
You put pads on in seventhgrade.
I mean it you don't you don'tsee the turnout that you would
see at other schools that haveit for an elementary program
too.

(10:34):
And I d I don't think I don'tthink sports are as promoted in
school anymore.
Like when we were in school.
Oh yeah.
I th I think it's more of a aburden on parents for whatever
reason.
I I and I'm not speaking for allparents because maybe it's maybe

(10:56):
it's a financial thing, maybeit's a a ride thing, maybe it's
uh interesting.
I d I don't know, but it it justit seems like it's fallen off so
bad.
It's it's hard to fathom.
Like when we were in school 20some years ago, you were almost
expected as a boy to at leastplay one year of tackle football

(11:21):
in seventh grade, like you wereexpected to go out for the team,
and if you didn't like it, youdidn't like it.
If you didn't like it, youdidn't like it, you didn't then
you didn't play it.
I mean, basketball is a littlebit different.
We had Saturday basketballprograms that shit, we had 50,
60 kids in the gym for some forlike three grades.

(11:41):
I mean, it was crazy.
Boys and girls, it wasn't juston the boys' side.
But like I've told othercoaches, uh I mean, success
breeds numbers.
Like if you see success as ayounger kid, you're gonna you
want to be a part of thatsuccess.
You want to you want to be apart of that program.
Uh, and parents see it, and uhthe school sees it and they they

(12:03):
they promote that that sportmore.
I've seen that with volleyball alot.
And I started seeing it withbasketball on the girls' side a
lot.
So, I mean it I don't know.
And some parents still treat itlike a babysitting service when
they're young, which is theshitty thing too.
But anyway.
So state volleyball, statefootball is gonna be going on

(12:26):
here soon.
Basketball's gonna start forboys and girls.

SPEAKER_04 (12:28):
We sent a couple cross-country girls to state.

SPEAKER_01 (12:30):
We did, oh yes, thank you for that reminder.
We did send a couplecross-country girls to state,
they did phenomenal.
One's a 11th grader, one's a10th grader.
The 10th grader's been going tostate for the past couple years.
I think she went as an eighthand a ninth grader, and then the
the 11th grader went last year,I believe, as 10th grader.
I believe one of them got 31stplace, and one of them got like

(12:53):
52nd.
And I think top 35 get allstate.
So, and and these two girls arephenomenal kids.
Like good students, goodathletes.
They're almost a model student.
The 11th graders and PSEO.
She's going for a new thenursing program.
They come from great familiestoo.
I mean, they're they're I'veknown that we've known their

(13:15):
parents forever.
Really excited for them,cross-country.
And then when it leads intotrack, both of them play
basketball.
They've been three sportathletes for forever, so which
is good.
They're they're great kids, goodstudents.
And congratulations on going tostate and placing where you did.

(13:36):
Do you have the did you look upthe results or no?
Mm-mm.
No.
I I'm sure I could find it, andI just I'm pretty positive on
the placing of those two.
Vikings won today.
Squeaked one out against theLions.
It was very, very surprising.
I was not optimistic about thatat all.

(13:58):
And I listened to it on theradio.
I didn't watch it live.
But from what I could hear fromPaul Allen and Versich, the
Lions were going through thesame kind of stuff that we do
with just getting decimated byinjuries on that offensive line.
Our defense played well, fromwhat I could hear.
The officials messed up a couplemore calls.

(14:19):
The game would have beendifferent if that holding call
wouldn't have happened on thatkick return.
If they would have called thatinterception an interception
like it was, that swings thegame.
If they call that offensive passinterference on that last Lions
touchdown, it's a differentgame.
I don't know what the league hasto do with these officials, but

(14:43):
they have to do something.
Yeah.
They have to.
You can't let this keephappening at the professional
level.
If these are the professionalofficials, they need to be held
to a professional standard.
Yes.
And you can't what's a catch?
Well, and what's a catch?

(15:04):
What is a catch?
What's an interception?
I mean, what are we doing?
What is the definition of acatch?
Because it's it can't be therecan be no gray area.

SPEAKER_04 (15:13):
No, it has to be either a catch or not a catch.
There's no kind of a catch.
It's always it it you have toestablish what the rules are.
Like we talked about, I think Iwent on this rant two, two or
three episodes ago.
Yep.

SPEAKER_01 (15:27):
With Hawkinson's catch in the end zone.

SPEAKER_04 (15:29):
If you you can agree either all or nothing.
If the ball touches the ground,is it incomplete?
Or is if the ball touches theground and he has control, is it
complete?
It's like then it adds the othergray area.
Well, what's control?
If his hand is wrapped aroundthe ball, or does he need two
hands on the ball, or does heneed a hand and a body on the

(15:51):
ball?
Or what like you have toestablish all those little
nuances in the rule before youactually make the rule a rule.
So it's like I personally thinkthey should simplify it and say,
if the ball touches the groundat any point, it's not a catch.

(16:12):
That's my that's my opinion.
If you want to simplify it andmake it real simple, if the
ball, I don't care if they haveboth hands on the ball, if the
ball touches the ground at anypoint throughout the catch
landing or otherwise, it'sincomplete.

SPEAKER_01 (16:30):
That's coming from a lineman, guys.
Yes, just so just so you know.
So if I catch a if I catch afootball like this, and the nose
of the ball is right here, yep,and I'm falling backwards.
Yep.
And the nose and I have if atany point the any part of the
ground, it's incomplete.

SPEAKER_04 (16:48):
Even though it never comes out of my hands.
Correct.
It's harsh, but that you're notA, you're not gonna run into
that a lot, a lot, right?
It's not a super frequent thing.

SPEAKER_01 (17:00):
The way that people, or I shouldn't say people, the
way that athletes or footballplayers, college football, high
school, NFL, the way that theycatch the ball now is more body
catches than with their hands.
Yeah.
So some people will catch theball and fall forward, say, and

(17:22):
the nose of the ball, afterthey've been falling, hits the
ground.
You're saying that's not acatch.

SPEAKER_04 (17:27):
Yeah, I'm saying you have to prevent the ball from
touching the ground at allcosts.

SPEAKER_01 (17:31):
I think that would be- You have to have something
where everybody can go, okay,look, you have to catch it like
this, and you have to fall likethis, so it's not an
incompletion.

SPEAKER_04 (17:40):
If I mean, it's as simple as just saying don't let
the ball touch the ground.
Get your arm under it, get yourhands under it, get your body
under it, use the other player.
I don't even care.
It's like I mean, I can getbehind if it's a if it's a rule
and it's for everybody, and Ican definitely get behind it.
And I think it would simplifycalls and I think it would make

(18:01):
it a little more interesting.
And what's a football move?

SPEAKER_01 (18:05):
That see, that would completely eliminate that.
So if I catch the ball and Itake two steps and uh and the
ball just flies out of my hands,that's a fumble.
Yes.
That's a fumble.
Yes.
If I catch the ball on a hitchor a comeback, I think turn
around.

SPEAKER_04 (18:20):
That's a football move.
I also think a football move istoo ambiguous.
They need to emph they need toelaborate on what a football
move is.
Is it is it one and a halfsteps?
Is it two steps?
Is it a step and a juke?
Is it a step and a dive?
Is it a twist and a turn and ashitty shitty shake shake?

SPEAKER_01 (18:36):
Is it falling?

SPEAKER_04 (18:36):
Because that's a football move.
Yeah, exactly.
If you catch a ball in the fadeand you're in and you're in the
air, then you're fallingforwards or backwards or
wherever you're gonna do it.
Sideways or diving or whatever.

SPEAKER_01 (18:45):
Is that a football move?
So if I catch a ball in the backof the end zone, like I just
showed you with the Poweradebottle, my feet are in and the
and I catch it, never touchesthe ground, but then I roll and
the ball comes out, that's anincompletion.

SPEAKER_04 (19:00):
By today's standards, yes, it is.
But is it?
In my in my personal opinion,it's not.
By the NFL's rules, it it wouldbe an incompletion because he
wouldn't have had theopportunity to make a football
move if he was full extension,two feet in the corner of the
end zone, and he's falling thisway.

SPEAKER_01 (19:21):
No, is Travis Kelsey catching that ball?

SPEAKER_04 (19:23):
Yeah, well, that's I mean, that's where we're
talking.
It's it's subjective.

SPEAKER_01 (19:27):
It's not the NFL didn't want the Vikings to beat
the Lions today.
No.
They didn't.
No, they didn't.
They did not.
So I mean, and I don't and it'snot a conspiracy, and I've heard
many, many, many, many, manysports people say football's
more interesting when the Chiefsare winning, when the Bills are
winning, when the Cowboys arewinning, when the Giants are

(19:48):
winning, when the Packers arewinning.
But I'm just saying these bigmarket these big market teams,
the NFL is more interesting andmore people are watching when
they're winning and beingsuccessful, which sucks.
But then you've got little likeJacksonville.
When Jacksonville and thePatriots were in the AFC
championship game, the onlyreason people fucking watched it
is because Tom Brady was there.
Yep.

(20:09):
If that would have beenJacksonville and the Browns,
nobody would have fuckingwatched that.
No.

SPEAKER_04 (20:14):
And I'm guilty of that too.
When it's two uninterestingteams playing a playoff game or
in the Super Bowl, I'm just likedefine uninteresting.
I I don't know.

SPEAKER_01 (20:26):
You don't like an underdog story?
I love an underdog story.
So you you didn't watch ifJacksonville would have made it
to that Super Bowl that year andbeat the Patriots.
I think that was either that waseither the Rams Super Bowl or
the Falcons Super Bowl.
I can't remember which one itis.
You wouldn't have watchedJacksonville play them.

SPEAKER_04 (20:44):
So under it's subjective because I would have
watched that.
That's interesting.
Philly, I'm opposite.
Philly, Kansas City, Super Bowl.
I'm not watching that.
Like I I've seen it.
It's I've seen this episodebefore.
Yeah, I want to see somethingnew.
Yeah.

(21:04):
And me being a Vikings fan, youknow what, honestly, even if it
was Detroit or the Pac or any ofthe NFC North teams, I'm 100%
inviting in that Super Bowl.
I do too.
But the same old, same oldSteelers, Ravens, it like Rams,
Rams, Chiefs, Chiefs, even theBills, Philly, Bills, it's all

(21:27):
like, oh yeah, that's a goodteam, you know?
And it's like, let's get, let'suh it it kind of rides on the
coattails of my whole retire andget the fuck out thing.
Let's have some new blood.
Let's get some new things goingon.
I want to see something that Ihaven't seen before.
That's why I like the NBA rightnow because there hasn't been a

(21:48):
repeat champion in so long.
That's wonderful.
That's absolutely I love lovenon-dynasty sports.
I I like when the Yankees, Ihated baseball when the Yankees
were winning.
I hated I hated the Patriotswhen they won all the Super
Bowl, when Tom Brady was justkicking absolute ass.

(22:10):
Although I did I did likewatching like Teddy Bruski on
defense, those early Patriotteams, yes, yeah, and the
offensive line just phenomenal.
Like I loved watching that shit.
But it gets old.
It's just the same story overwhen the Red Sox were
unstoppable.
Yeah.
I'm like, well, Poppy's gonnahit a grand slam, they're gonna

(22:32):
win by nine points.

SPEAKER_01 (22:34):
There goes there goes Manny.
There goes Pedroya.
Let's bring in Pedro.
It's you know, and I'm startingto feel like that with the
Dodgers, even though I hate toswitch it over to baseball real
quick, but that was probably oneof the most entertaining World
Series that I've watched ever.
Ever.
Ever.

SPEAKER_04 (22:51):
I didn't watch it.
It was you're not much of abaseball watcher.
I'm not.
I'm not even much of a baseballfan.
Like, I mean, I like I playedsoftball and actually tangent.
Next summer we need to playwiffle ball in the yard.
Yes.
Instead of playing softball.
We're gonna do Thursday nights.
We're gonna do golf, though.
Yes.

(23:12):
We need to do golf too.

SPEAKER_01 (23:15):
We'll figure it out.
We'll we'll make a schedule.
Yeah.
But this this NFL thing, like,I'm done here.
No, how about uh and I'm donehearing about how Patrick
Mahomes is like the bestquarterback ever already because
he's not.
You look at Brady's earlysuccess with those teams, Brady
did a lot more with a lot less.

(23:37):
He just did.
And football was different.
It's the same argument that youcan have with LeBron and Michael
Jordan.
The game was different, therules were different, the money
was different, the coaching wasdifferent.
The I mean, defenses can'tfucking touch anybody now in the
NFL.
No, you can't even breathe on aguy unless you're the Lions and

(23:58):
you get to push the defenderdown.

SPEAKER_04 (24:00):
Yeah.
So I mean did it's what did PaulAllen say about the kick?
When he blocked it?
No, JJ got kicked.
Um I didn't I don't remember.
Oh, it was a it was a 15-yardpenalty, unnecessary roughness.
The guy was getting blocked, andhe like he like left his feet

(24:20):
while he was getting blocked,and JJ was in the pocket, and he
he swung his leg and kicked JJright in the right knee, like in
the top of the right knee.
The ref saw it, and it was itwas blatant.
Like he swung his leg to try andkick JJ's legs.
So he might be facing a fine.

(24:41):
I'm sure he will.
Yeah.
I'm sure he will.

SPEAKER_01 (24:43):
Which he should.
You can do that.
You don't do that.
Yeah, don't kick.
You just you can't do that.
No, you can't.
But it it's it was nice to seethe fight that the Vikings had
today.
Or here, I should say here forme.
It was so good.
It was so nice to see someblocking on offense.
Having those bookend tackles ishuge.

(25:06):
And I talked about this at thebeginning of the year.
Darissau and O'Neill, whenhealthy, are one of the best
tackle tandems in the world.
They make they make our offense.
I mean they really do.
Yeah.

SPEAKER_04 (25:17):
They really, really do.
Outside of, yes, our skillsplayers, JJ.
Can't do anything with you can'tthey they can't JJ.

SPEAKER_01 (25:24):
They can't do anything without line play.
Aaron Jones.
Aaron Jones is hurt again.
Uh no.
But a football team is gonna goas far as their offensive and
defensive line is gonna takethem.
It's just how it is.
I know everybody wants to talkabout you know, JJ or Justin
Jefferson and Addison and allthe weapons that we have,
because we have top five weaponsin the NFL very easily, but if

(25:50):
we have a bottom five offensiveline, it doesn't it doesn't
fucking matter.
It doesn't matter.
Yeah.
So uh I was n it was nice to seelike Javon Hargrave had a great
game.
That's probably his best gamesince the Bears game.
Uh Ginkle was back, which is myman.
I fucking love that guy.
I wish Harry recovered thatfumble.

(26:10):
Harry got that fumble, Gernardplayed well, uh Cashman had I
heard 14 tackles in that firstfumble or that fumble recovery.
I don't remember which one.
Rogers had a good game.
I just our schedule is so hardmoving forward.
Like next week we have theRavens, and Lamar Jackson is has

(26:31):
like two losses ever against theNFC.
But and it's it's gonna be twodesperate teams, you know,
trying to get it the to writethe ship to stay on track for
the playoffs.
Now, this is another thing I wasgonna ask you for and then I'll
give you my opinion on it too.
Would you rather have a team,would you rather have the

(26:53):
Vikings get second or third inour division, make make the wild
card round, or be a wild cardteam and have a later pick in
the draft, or would you ratherhave them not make the playoffs,
be at the bottom of thedivision, and get a higher draft

(27:15):
pick?
How how how do you how do youfeel about either one of those?

SPEAKER_04 (27:21):
Ask me when it's later in the season.

SPEAKER_01 (27:24):
Because I mean, if McCarthy can play the way he's
gonna be.

SPEAKER_04 (27:27):
If you would have asked me this before the game
today, I would have said draftpick.
Yeah.
But after seeing that we aresomewhat capable, ask me later
on the season.

SPEAKER_01 (27:38):
Of beating an elite team.
Yes, don't get Detroit's they'regood.
They're fucking good.
Yes.
They're in the NFC Championshipgame last year.
Yep.
They're a lot of peoplepredicted them to be in the NFC
Championship game again or makethe Super Bowl.
Yeah.
So I mean, beating them shows athome in Detroit, where we never
play well.

(27:58):
I think KOC's one and threethere.
Yeah.
So I mean that shows that we canbe just as physical and just as
good as the top tier NFC teams.
It really does.
Now, would it have helpedDetroit if they were healthy?

(28:19):
Of course.
Of course it would.
Of course it would.

SPEAKER_04 (28:21):
That's a given.

SPEAKER_01 (28:22):
I mean, that's everybody.
That's every team.
But now that you're at the pointof the season that we're in now,
everybody's banged up.
Everybody's hurt.
And you know, even going towardsthe playoffs, you see how much
depth you have.
So me, I I'm one of the morereal, I'm one of the most
realistic Viking fans thatpeople probably would ever run
into.
Yep.

(28:42):
I could see them still makingthe NFC Championship game if
they played like they did today.
Correct.
Because they can upset anybodyat home.
And now that we beat Detroit inDetroit, we know we can play
there.

SPEAKER_04 (28:56):
Yep.

SPEAKER_01 (28:57):
Now we if we can go to Lambo and beat Green Bay in
Lambo, same thing.
Now I think we're 500 now, fourand four.
I think is our record.
Yeah, I'm pretty sure.
So if we can get to maybe tenand six.
If we can get to ten and six, Ithink that that I think we make
the playoffs.

SPEAKER_04 (29:16):
Oh yeah.
I'm like I said, the thequestion about draft picker
playoffs, like I said, if ifwe're if we're progressing down
the down the season well andwe're playing like we played
today, then yeah, I I would loveto see them.
I would love to see them in theplayoffs and make a run at it.

(29:38):
If we lose the next three games,then hell no.
I want to see draft picks and Iwant to see investment in the
team for next year.

SPEAKER_01 (29:45):
Yep.
Which is a bummer because we areone of the oldest teams in the
league.
Yeah.
We need to get younger ondefense.
We just do.
We do.
I love Harrison Smith.

SPEAKER_04 (29:55):
Well, yeah, and we're slowly improving year over
year.
I mean, we're Getting players.
How old's Metellus?
He's young.

SPEAKER_01 (30:04):
Yeah.
He's young.
Ginkle.
Ginkle's like he's in his mid.
He's in his thirties.
Yeah, he's mid.
He's in his 30s.
Harry's old.
He's my age or your age.
I think it might be 36.
I think Ginkle's 30, 31.
Gernard's the same age.
Hargroves or Hargraves the sameage.
They're all in their late 20s,early 30s, which is by NFL

(30:25):
standards, old.
But I think we can make a run ifwe get the if we can get a wild
card even if we're the seven orthe six.
Yeah.
I think we can go to Tampa Bayand win.
I think we could go to Detroitand win.
I think we could go to I thinkwe can go to Green Bay and win.
I mean, I I really, really do.

(30:46):
If we can s if our bookendtackles can stay healthy, and
our defense can stop giving upthe big play, stop giving up the
over-the-top throw, I think wecan beat them.
I think if we have a healthyoffensive line, I think that
game with Philadelphia isdifferent.
I really do.
Philly's good.
I think Philly's probably themost complete team in in the

(31:08):
conference.
Seeing that Green Bay lost toCarolina today, a lot of my
faith in Green Bay is gone.
It really is.
And then having Chicago get in ashootout with Cincinnati, I mean
that's terrible.
Yeah.
Because they're not good.
I mean, Joe Flacco's Joe Flacco,but to to let Cincinnati score

(31:33):
that many points and then I meanit it that it doesn't look good.
It doesn't look good at all.
So hopefully we can stay healthyand keep moving, keep improving,
and contain Lamar Jackson nextweek.
That'll be key.
That's gonna be really, reallyhuge for us.
So let's see.
Uh what else do I have here?

(31:56):
I think that's it for sports,really.
Skull! Skull.
Skull, baby skull.
Just looking at some somecurrent event topics, some hot
conversations, hot takes,reading on the Google machine
here.
There is a hot take here, andI'm gonna get your opinion on it
right now.
Class attendance in schoolshould not reflect a kid's

(32:18):
grade.
So public school, say yourdaughter doesn't want to go to
class, that shouldn't reflecther grade.

SPEAKER_04 (32:28):
Doesn't that by default affect their grade?

SPEAKER_01 (32:31):
This is this is a current event topic right now in
the United States.
So by hello.

SPEAKER_04 (32:37):
Little little close.
So by default, not going toclass would affect your grade.
I don't I I don't see the needto score attendance after like
elementary school, right?
Because elementary school, youget the softball grade for
attendance, you get an S or an Splus or an N or whatever.
And it's like if you made it 90%of the time to school, you get

(33:00):
that little check mark in theattendance box.
Right.
Once you hit middle school,junior high, high school, I
don't see the need to grade onattendance because the content
of the class by default willgive you the grade you earn.
Because if you're not there,you're not learning and you're
not getting the grades, soyou're gonna end up with zeros

(33:21):
or F's on your assignments, andthen you're gonna fail the
class.
So that my opinion is Soattendance by itself.
You're not saying like I'm notI'm what I'm saying is no, I
don't think there should be agrade for attendance.
Kind of like how they do it incollege.
Yeah, yeah.

(33:42):
100%.
There should not be youshouldn't be scored on
attendance.
You should be required to go toschool.
In the same breath, it is arequirement for you to be in
school in class.
That is part of the requirementof school.

SPEAKER_01 (34:00):
It's also teaching kids that you have to get up and
go to work.

SPEAKER_04 (34:02):
And as a child, a non-adult, a non-rights holding
citizen of the United States ofAmerica, like I love how you
said that.
When when you are when you areyoung, you are under 18, you
have the least amount of rightsyou will ever have in your life
because you have your parentsthat get to essentially rule

(34:24):
over you and make the rules.
And also you have theinstitutions that rule over you
and make the rules.
That's kind of like you'reyou're like that your whole life
because the government makes thelaws as an adult.
But yes, you have to fucking goto school.
It's not it's not an optionwhere it's like, I'm taking a

(34:45):
mental health day today.
No, no.
You need to go to school, go toclass, learn what you're what
you're learning.
I mean, if you wanted to getinto an hours-long conversation,
we can talk about class contentand and like what we're actually
teaching our kids nowadays andand what should be required and
shouldn't be required, becauseI'm big on the STEM classes.

(35:08):
I love STEM classes, but I alsorespect and understand that
there are a lot of people outthere that STEM isn't gonna be
their life.
It their life is gonna be artsand entertainment and leisure,
it's not gonna be anything to dowith STEM classes.

SPEAKER_01 (35:25):
And so I think they should bring back, and we'll
we're gonna actually get in thisright now.
I think that they should bringback where you get enough you
can get enough credits to haveto for graduation by your tenth
grade year or even eleventhgrade year.
But then you're able to takeelectives towards your alleged

(35:48):
career choice.
So if say that that girl that'sthat went to state for
cross-country, she wants to bein nursing, she wants to be a
nurse.
Yeah, there should be a highschool course or courses, or
going somewhere in the schoolwhere they're gonna teach
nursing 101 or welding 101 oraccounting 101.

(36:12):
Like that should still be inschool.
Like you retain a lot of kidsinstead of them going off to
PSEO where you lose that moneyas a school district.
People don't understand that.
PSEO kids, you lose the moneyfor the school district because
they're no longer technicallygoing to school.
And if you have those courses inhigh school and you have those

(36:34):
teachers that are versed inthat, it'll retain kids.
It'll get probably get more kidsto come to your school
eventually.

SPEAKER_04 (36:43):
Yeah.
And I think that's a profoundchange that we could we could do
with the education system andmake it more of make high school
more into college style wherekids are choosing like a junior
college almost.
Like like where kids arechoosing the classes that what

(37:03):
they want to take.
Don't get me wrong, I'm notabandoning the fact that STEM is
the foundation of pretty mucheverything outside of arts.
I mean band, choir, yes, drama.
You do not need to know, and andI like I'm hardcore STEM, as I
said, and I'll be the first toadmit, you don't need to be a

(37:27):
scientist, a mathematician.
You don't need to have any ofthose base skills if you're
going into performance arts oracting or anything like that.
However, to function in today'ssociety, you do need a very
basic foundation of at leastmath.

(37:49):
At least math.
You don't need chemistry, youdon't need physics, you don't
even need like earth science orlife science per se.
I think the way that we have oureducation system set up where
it's pretty broad field, youstarting in seventh grade, it's

(38:09):
fairly broad field until youknow ninth or tenth grade, and
then and then it becomes alittle bit more acute and you
get to focus in more on whatwhat you want to do as a kid or
what your parents are quoteunquote going to make you do.
So I don't know.
I I don't I I like talking alot, but I just because I talk a

(38:31):
lot doesn't mean I think thatI'm right all the time and have
all the answers.
But if if I were to snap myfingers and say that this is
what I think would be a gooddirection to go, is you offer
foundational math and science.

(38:52):
You offer foundational grammarand English in the earlier high
school years, ninth and tenthgrade, and then 11th and 12th
grade.
People should focus more on whatthey're growing into as people.

SPEAKER_01 (39:06):
I mean because normally as a nor normally, I
shouldn't say normally, a lot ofthe people or the girls, I
should say.
I'll just use the basketballteam as an example.
A lot of them know what theywant to do by their 11th grade
year.
Well, yeah, they think they knowwhat they want to do.
And that's what they're willingto invest their time in.
Correct.
Yes.

(39:26):
So if you have those thingsoffered to them, I think you
would have a higher success ratewith 100% stuff.
100%.

SPEAKER_04 (39:33):
People would be more successful.
Another note on the educationsystem.
Oh boy, here we go.
Yeah, you started it.
Our basic understanding of theworld around us is starting to
it's bad.
Deteriorate.
It is in the middle ofdeterioration, if not towards

(39:54):
the end of deterioration.

SPEAKER_01 (39:56):
Do you think that there's too much pushed on kids?

SPEAKER_04 (39:59):
No, in public there's I think no.
No.
I I think there are too manydistractions, and I think there
are too many too many outs thatkids have that they can make
excuses to not do what'srequired of them.
I don't know, man.

(40:19):
I think that if you strugglewith learning, you get the help
you need.
There are several resources thatall public schools have access
to for learning disabledindividuals.

SPEAKER_01 (40:32):
Well, and and that's a lot on the school too.
Yes.
It's a lot on the school, it's alot on the parents.
But I also think But I alsothink parents are too quick to
jump towards little Johnny has alearning problem.

SPEAKER_04 (40:45):
No, that's exactly what I was just gonna say.
I was I was gonna say learningdisabilities are are way
over-diagnosed.
Way over-diagnosed.
If a kid doesn't want to domath, he's not gonna do math,
and then you like you can takehim to six different
psychologists' shrinks, whateveryou want to call them, you can
take him to six differentdoctors of psychiatry or

(41:07):
psychology, and you'll get sixdifferent diagnoses.
Yep.
Depending on what that kid issaying to the psych at each
appointment.
And it's it's really difficultbecause you don't want to be,
you don't want to be so harshthat you're minimizing what the

(41:29):
kid is feeling, and that you'renot you're not providing the
right guidance and tools for thekid to succeed, but you have to,
as the parent, you should knowthe kid.
Yeah.
Right?
Parents know their kids, yes,right.
You live with them, you raisethem, you you you love them, you

(41:50):
care for them, you provide forthem.
You know them.
If you don't know them, you'rekind of a shitty parent.
I can agree with that.
Yeah.
I can agree with that.
If you don't know your kids,you're a shitty parent.
But that's your job as a parent,then, to know your kid and say,
all right, well, this I'm justgonna say she because I have a

(42:13):
daughter.
Like, she's really strugglingright now.
What's the deal?
What's been going on?
Yeah, what's why is shestruggling?
It does she actually need extrahelp outside of the normal
classroom, or is she distractedby something, or is she being
lazy, or what what is what isit?
And as a parent, that's your jobto identify that.

(42:34):
It's not that like teachers do afuckload of stuff for us.
Oh god, teachers underpaid,underappreciated.
They do enough.
Parents need to step up, buck upbuttercup, learn, learn your
kids' behaviors, invest in yourkids' education and care about
what they're doing in school.

SPEAKER_01 (42:55):
And it's not always the teacher's or the
administration's fault.

SPEAKER_04 (42:59):
No, there's a lot of times where the kid is just
like, hey, I there I've hadseveral several times in my life
with my daughter where it's likeshe is digging in and she is not
gonna move.
And as a parent, you have tochoose which battles you're
really not gonna back down onand which battles you can afford

(43:20):
to just let her be a teenager.

SPEAKER_01 (43:22):
Well, and you and you know, the school systems, a
lot of them like they move thesekids on so they don't have to
deal with them.

SPEAKER_04 (43:30):
Yes, that does happen.

SPEAKER_01 (43:32):
I and I think it happens more now than than when
we were in school or beforethat.
You see these kids struggling,and and being I'm around a lot
of high school kids.
I've been around a lot of juniorhigh kids, you know, middle
school kids.
And I can pick the ones out thatare hyperactive, that struggle
in school, that struggle athome, that struggle with

(43:54):
friends.
You know, I can I'm pretty goodat picking that out because I've
been around enough young kids orkids in general, yeah, that
sometimes all those kids want isto talk to somebody.
Is to someone to understandthem, or someone just to listen.
Yep.
Someone, you know, I was cussedout by a kid during football
because he was mad aboutsomething at home.

(44:16):
And all he wanted to do wasvent.
Yep.
He didn't want to be told thathe was wrong, he didn't want to
be told that he his opiniondidn't matter, he didn't want to
be told that, you know, youknow, kind of a buck up and deal
with it, life's not fair typeconversation.
He just wanted to vent.
That's all he wanted to do.
Yep.
And then he was great, andsometimes that's what you have
to do.

(44:36):
And I think a lot of coacheswere like when we were in school
or even after the fact, a lot ofthose coaches are psychiatrists
and shrinks that kind of whatthey become because it's the
second set of parents for a kid.
And I think a lot of that powerhas been taken away.
No, I shouldn't say power,that's the wrong word.

(44:56):
A lot of that trust and abilityhas been taken away from people
like that because of someparents.
You know, a lot of parents saythat they're not gonna do
homework with their kids becausethat's that should have been
done in school.
Kids shouldn't have homeworkbecause it should have been done
in school, that's a teacher'sjob.

(45:17):
No, it's not.
Because if it was the teacher'sjob, the kid would have done it
in school.
If they need extra help, thenyes, yes, the teacher's the one
that's gonna help them with theextra help.
Because some some parents, I youknow, I'll say it, I'll be one
of the first ones to say it.
I'm not very fluent in math.
So I would tell my kids, hey,you gotta talk to your sister,

(45:39):
you gotta, you gotta Googlesomething, or you gotta talk to
your friends, because I don'tknow shit about this, but you
need to figure it out, and thatcreates problem solving skills
for your kids.
That creates problem solvingskills that are gonna translate
to the real world.
So and I I don't think there'senough of that anymore.

SPEAKER_04 (45:56):
No, it's it's clear and it's it's it's apparent if
you just you know pay attentionto some of these kids' problem
solving skills or lack thereof,or even communication, just
simple communication skills.

SPEAKER_01 (46:08):
Like they they don't know how to talk to people.
I and I don't understand that.
Like I I I mean they burythemselves in a phone or in a
computer or a tablet orwhatever, and that's all they've
ever known.
And then when they have to starttalking to people, like they
just they don't know how.
Social anxiety just it bogglesmy mind.
It really does.

(46:28):
Like we had to stand up in frontof the class and talk when we
were in school.
They don't do that anymore.
Because some parent complainedabout it that their kid gets
anxiety or they get they theyact out when they when they
think that they're gonna have totalk in front of a group of
people.
Well, what what you're gonnalive in your basement your whole
life?
Like, what do you what are wedoing here?

SPEAKER_04 (46:47):
Some people must because it's and you know,
honestly, what I have seen islike the majority of kids aren't
like that.
Yeah, the majority they know howto talk, even though even though
they are buried in their phonesa lot, they they all have their
phone tendencies.
I think a lot of at least mydaughter's friends and peers,

(47:13):
when I talk to them, they're notweird.
You know, they're not sociallyawkward, they they're willing to
have a word conversation face toface.

SPEAKER_01 (47:23):
Now, do you know what all those kids have in
common?
Sports.

SPEAKER_04 (47:26):
Exactly.
Yeah, they're all athletes, orat least participate, they
participate in something inathletics, or or in band or
quiet.
Any kind of art or extraextracurricular, yeah.
Because or they have a job.
Well, yeah, and if you're whatyou're saying, you know, they're
not they're not getting thatexposure in the classroom
anymore.

(47:47):
Even even like a normal, like acivics class or a history class,
they're learning from YouTube onsome of these things.
Like in the classroom, they'relearning from videos.
And I think using media,multimedia, is a useful tool in
education, but I don't think itshould be I don't think we're

(48:10):
leaned on as the primary sourceof teaching our kids things.

SPEAKER_01 (48:15):
I think that YouTube and history channel stuff, and I
mean if it's relevant to thesubject, I think it's good to
watch that kind of stuff.
I don't think it's necessarilywhat you should teach.
Shouldn't be the corecurriculum, it should be
something that you show as anexample.
An enhancement to the lesson.

(48:36):
So, like Band of Brothers, youwatch that'd be yeah, a hundred
percent.
You watch the Battle of Bastonewhen you're talking about the
Battle of the Bulge, or you'dwatch the you know, when they
jump into France for D-Day orwhat, you know, something like
that.
Or you or you watch platoon,parts of platoon for Vietnam, or
you know, and I I agree.

(48:58):
I can agree to disagree becauseit's so hard to teach history to
get kids interested to but youhave you have to be excited
about it as a teacher.
Like that that's another thingthat I've seen a lot of they're
not some teachers just aren'texcited about what they teach.
I mean, how exciting can youmake math?
Oh, you can make math prettyeasy.
You can.

(49:19):
You but all jokes aside, youcan.
You can make history exciting,you can make homework exciting.
That's what a good teacher does.
That's what good educators do.
Your dad was one of the bestscience teachers, and I I didn't
I wasn't much for science, buthe made it interesting to me.
That's what good educators do.
I mean, my college historyteacher was like three and a

(49:41):
half feet tall, and she sat on astool, but she was so passionate
about it that she made me loveit even more than I already did.
So I mean it and that's how andI hate to bring it back to
sports, but you look at coaches,look at the best coaches.
They have they all haveenthusiasm, they all make it
fun, they all like even ifyou're getting your ass kicked,
like they're they're trying tomake you a better person, and

(50:03):
they're it's and I don't know,it it's hard.
It's hard knowing how some ofthe public school stuff goes on
and uh just how much it's gonedownhill once it rained in
November.

SPEAKER_04 (50:24):
Whatever.
Well the more time that I spendon this planet, the more it
becomes apparent that life is ifyou could narrow life down to
one key thing that you need tofocus on as an individual, it is

(50:46):
just the word balance.
It is not going too far ineither direction and just
maintaining equilibrium.
Don't drink too much, you know.
Right?
For for for me, people somepeople don't ever drink.
That's fine.
I'm not saying that you need todrink, but for me, it's like I

(51:06):
drink enough to let off somesteam, have fun, kind of let
loose, but I don't drink enoughto where it's a problem.
It's the same with teachers orcoaches or bosses.
You have to have the balance ofstrictness and you have to be

(51:28):
organized and you have to beattentive, but too much of any
of those, you're not you're notgonna be successful, right?

SPEAKER_01 (51:39):
Well, I wouldn't say not successful, but it's just
about balance.
Yeah, I get what you're saying.

SPEAKER_04 (51:44):
Yeah, it's it's like you know, the coach can't freak
shit over everything all thetime.
But they also can't stand backand do nothing.
Correct.
But they can't be quiet, silent,or or you know, the type, well,
it's okay.
We'll get it next time.
Hug slap hug.
Yeah.
Hug slap hug.
Exactly.

SPEAKER_01 (52:03):
And if the kids don't respect you and they don't
they don't if the if the kidsdon't respect you and have no
rapport with you, the they'reit's a Well, you're not an
effective coach, then Well, andthat's gonna you're kind of
leading into my nextconversation piece here, and
this kind of fits with thebusiness end of stuff.
Is the customer always right?

SPEAKER_04 (52:26):
It depends on who you're asking.
But for the most part, if you'reasking me, no.
But there's gotta be some giveand take there.
Correct.
From a business standpoint, youhave to establish your you have
to establish expectations.

(52:48):
So that's the perfect word.
Yeah, if the customers come toyou and you have a blank web
page and you don't really have atheme or a set cadence for your
products, the customer is gonnahave eight million questions.
They might not even askquestions, they might just go on
to the next website for whateverthey're looking for.

(53:08):
Yep.
But if a customer comes to youand has either a suggestion or a
request, then you, as thebusiness owner, you need to do
everything you can toaccommodate that customer if
it's within your businessparameters.
I, you know, I rent saunas.
If a customer comes to me andsays, Hey, it'd be really great

(53:30):
if you could rent me a pickuptruck.
I'm like, Yeah, that's notthat's not my business.
That's not what I do.
Can I take that sauna off thattrailer and use the trailer?
That no, yeah.
Yeah.
You I'm gonna rent the sauna.
Can I can I hook the sauna upand take it on a family trip
with me on a road trip?
No, that's right there in myit's actually online in the

(53:51):
waiver.
It says customers will not beallowed to relocate the sauna.
It's it's a thing.

SPEAKER_01 (53:56):
It's an insurance thing.
It's right.
It's a liability thing.

SPEAKER_04 (53:58):
Yeah, it's a liability thing.
I'm not gonna have people pullit down the road.
I don't know what kind ofexperience they have pulling
trailers.
I don't know if they're gonnatry to hook it up to a Subaru
outback and bottom out theirback suspension and then sue me
because their car broke.
Like, right.
So, yes, the customer is alwaysright when it's within the
business parameters.
If anything is out of thisworld, then no, the customer's

(54:22):
not always right.
It's again, that like you said,balance.
It's led right into that.
It's it's a balance of both.
You have to respect thecustomer's opinions, too.
Like you can't be a businessowner and have somebody complain
to you and be like, oh, you'rejust being a little whanny.
You know, no, no, like, yeah,okay, I understand.
I understand.
Is there anything I can do thatthat will help this right now?

(54:47):
Yeah, I can give you 50% offyour next rental.
Okay, yeah, that works for me.
I'll go ahead.
Or if it's like something thatis not a reasonable
accommodation, then it's like,you know, I I hear you, and I'm
really sorry you had thatexperience.
Unfortunately, we we can'treally that's not something that

(55:07):
we can improve or fix at themoment.
So unfortunately, that is justhow it is.
And I get talking like that fromour employment at that major
airline call center because itwas that is what taught me how
to disappoint people.
Yeah, yeah.
I it it was I'm sorry, we'regonna have to charge you that

(55:28):
$200 change fee because it's avoluntary change and you don't
have a changeable ticket.

SPEAKER_01 (55:34):
Well, you can keep your ticket that you have that
you purchase that you and Imean.
Yep.
I'm sorry you missed yourflight.
I I I'm I'm really sorry aboutthat.
But unfortunately, with havingto change that, the fare changes
and you have a$200 change fee.
The total is gonna be yada yadayada.
Now, somebody calls you on aSunday morning when you're
supposed to go pick up a sauna.

(55:55):
Hey man, you know, our we got aparty st we got the party
staying for another day and ahalf.
Do you think we could keep itfor another day and a half at
this price?

SPEAKER_04 (56:03):
If it if I don't have a rental, absolutely.
So if it's not already spokenfor, a hundred percent you can
extend your rental.
And I mean there's extremes forand I would honestly I'll
probably throw out a deal at youif you wanted to do that because
that saves, you know, that saveit.
You're paying me to keep itlonger, and then I don't have to
pick it up and you're not gonnagive me money by doing that.

(56:25):
Right.

SPEAKER_01 (56:25):
So and I I think there's there's definitely
industries where this is thistype of topic is something that
needs to be more talked about,like your retail aspect, your
restaurant industry, you know,in those industries, I would
have to say the customer isn'talways right.

(56:46):
If you're gonna be a prick andyou're gonna act like an
asshole.
I was just gonna say in the inthe service industries, people I
I don't understand theentitlement in the service
industry or the restaurantindustry or some some some
people in those because thosepeople went to work and they're
trying to give you a servicethat you didn't want to do for

(57:08):
yourself.
And it doesn't give you theright to act like a prick.
It doesn't give you a right toact like an asshole and treat
them like shit.
It just doesn't.
Correct.
I mean, you don't know what thatwaitress is going through or the
waiter, you don't know what thatretail manager is going through
or how their day is.
I mean, you you just don't likeand that you shouldn't think you

(57:29):
can treat people like that andhave that entitlement that
you're always right and youshould get everything that you
want.
Like, that's not how this worldworks.

SPEAKER_04 (57:37):
I mean, don't get me wrong.
I I want everything.
And so do I.
So do I, but I'm not gonna go.
But I'm not gonna treat somebodylike shit when it like, you
know, I it's like you have to,you just have to just not be so
aggro about things.
Like you get a cold fuckinghamburger, yeah.
You can complain about it andsay, hey, miss, this this

(57:59):
hamburger is cold.
Can I get a different one?
Or or if you don't want to eatthere anymore, could I could I
get my money back and and we'rejust gonna go?
And yeah, the waitress, thewaitress is gonna be fine with
that.
It if it's like if she's good orif they are good at their job.
If they're good at their job,they're gonna be fine with that,
and they're gonna be like, We'rereally sorry.
And you know, and so are yougonna go back to the kitchen

(58:23):
door, open up the door, and belike, hey, you're incompetent,
you stupid piece of shit.
Like, yeah, no, no, it's likepeople like you said,
everybody's going throughsomething.
The the more people that realizethat, the better we're gonna
become as a society, even ifthey're not going through
something, nobody deserves toget treated like that.

SPEAKER_01 (58:42):
Correct.
I mean, I I had a recentencounter at a restaurant where
my my food wasn't to what Iexpected it to be.
Yeah.
And I talked to the waiter, Iwas like, hey man, this is cold.
I'm not gonna eat this.
Oh, I'm so sorry.
We'll comp this.
We'll come.
I'm like, nah, man, I just justgive me something hot.

(59:04):
Yeah.
Yeah, I just want hot food.
I'm so sorry.
I'm not I'm not mad, man.
It's busy in here.
You're busy, you're runningaround, you're one of three
people wait being waitingtables.
I'm not I'm not gonna do that toyou.
I just want something hot.
Well, we'll give it half price.
Well, whatever.
Whatever, just give me some ofthat hot.
You don't need to pay me.
I'm paying you for food still.

(59:25):
I just want it hot.
Now you get that sameinteraction, and the customer is
that nice, but that waiter orwaitress is an asshole to you as
a customer.
That's the give and take side ofthat.

SPEAKER_04 (59:39):
Yeah.

SPEAKER_01 (59:40):
Or your food takes another hour to come out and
it's cold again.
Like, come on, man.
Like there's a give and takehere.
Like, and that happens.
That that does happen.
Or you you know what?
Like Walmart.
You're gonna yell at someteenage kid at a register.

SPEAKER_04 (59:57):
More likely that it would be an elderly person.

SPEAKER_01 (01:00:00):
Well, whatever.
You're not wrong.
You are correct.
You're gonna yell at grandma ataisle six because she's not
going fast enough.

SPEAKER_04 (01:00:08):
She's too slow.
Come on, man.
I will say I was mad at the oneof the checkout people that I
experienced recently.
I didn't say anything.
I didn't I didn't treat theperson like a dick, but in my
head I was going, Are youfucking kidding me?
Oh yeah.
I have those moments dailyalmost.
I had eight totes.

(01:00:29):
Totes McGotes.
Walmart or Menard's is terrible.
I had eight totes.
They're bad.
And then I had 12 of thosethree-panel lights.
And this person they theycounted the totes, which I was
fine with, right?
Verify how many I have.
You can't take a customer's wordbecause there might be one extra

(01:00:51):
or one fewer.
Anyway, counts the totes.
And then I like one light is allthey needed to scan, and then
they could have just scanned it12 times.
No, every single light out ofthe box.
Scan, scan, scan, scan, scan,scan.

SPEAKER_01 (01:01:07):
And your ADD brain is going fucking nuts.

SPEAKER_04 (01:01:11):
Because I was I was not like trying to be slow or
anything.
I was in a hurry.
What was I doing that day?
I was in a hurry to get home andthen go let my parents' dogs out
and then come back home againbecause I was I'm in the middle
of a midlife organizationcrisis.
The garage is mostly done.

(01:01:34):
And now the shop is mostly done.
So living with ADD, chances arethey're going to just stay
mostly done for perpetuityforever.
It's never going to be donedone.
It'll just be mostly done.
Alright, let's move on.

SPEAKER_01 (01:01:52):
We're I just I don't know.
I I struggle with stuff likethat.
So we're gonna move on.
I could too, but I really couldtoo.

SPEAKER_04 (01:02:00):
It's late and we need to do our tournament.

SPEAKER_01 (01:02:03):
We're doing it right now.
We're gonna I'm gonna have youpick between best Disney Pixar
movie or movies that made onebillion dollars.

SPEAKER_04 (01:02:15):

different ones.

SPEAKER_01 (01:02:29):
So these movies made a gross of one billion dollars
worldwide.
Ew, that's gross.
Gross.

remember, it does one side ofthe bracket all the way to the

SPEAKER_04 (01:03:03):

think, was Titanic.
Rose.

SPEAKER_06 (01:03:12):
So so good.

SPEAKER_01 (01:03:13):
Good movie.
Spoiled the ending.
Do you know they made a Titanictoo?

SPEAKER_01 (01:03:23):
I mean, Avatar was visually unbelievable.
The Navi.
The Navi.
Night.
I'm a big Sigourney Weaver fan.
I am too.
I like her a lot.
And Sam Worthington was reallygood.
He did he was.
Zoe.
Oh, Salana.
She's hot.
She was in a lot of big moviesin that era.

(01:03:45):
So we're a man.
I'm split.

SPEAKER_04 (01:03:49):
I could argue either way.
I could too.

SPEAKER_01 (01:03:51):
Because I'm I'm Okay, so I I go home and there's
two movies in front of me.
Am I gonna watch Avatar or am Igonna watch The Titanic?
Like which one for me?

SPEAKER_04 (01:04:02):
I'm probably watching Titanic, to be honest.

SPEAKER_01 (01:04:05):
Do you know why I'm watching Titanic?
And the thing that puts it overthe top for me is the
soundtrack.
The music.
The music is good.

SPEAKER_04 (01:04:14):
For me, it's Billy Zane.
I I don't I don't Billy Zane.
Fuck that guy.

SPEAKER_01 (01:04:19):
I I just don't I think the I really like and
James Cameron.
I think he did both.
Actually.

SPEAKER_04 (01:04:27):
You know, it's been a yeah, he did.
It's been a hot minute since Iseen Avatar.
Since I have seen Avatar, don'tever let me say that like I did.
It's been a minute since I'veseen Avatar, and I bet if I
watched it right now, I wouldeasily fall back in love with
it.
Oh yeah, for sure.

SPEAKER_01 (01:04:48):
I'm picking Titanic.

SPEAKER_04 (01:04:49):
But yeah, like I said, if if I'm coming home, I
need to burn three and a halfhours.
Yeah, I'm watching Titanic.

SPEAKER_01 (01:04:56):
Nah, next two are Captain America Civil War or
Captain Marvel.
Oh, you have to go with America.
I liked Civil War.
That's probably my favorite oneout of all those.

SPEAKER_02 (01:05:14):
Captain Marvel.

SPEAKER_01 (01:05:16):
These are the non-animated ones.
The Lion King or Aladdin?
Aladdin for me.

SPEAKER_04 (01:05:25):
The live action?
Yeah.
Really?
I have never seen the liveaction Lion King.
I'm not I'm not big on the liveaction remakes of Disney movies.
I'm I'm original.
Yes, I am in a purist when itcomes to Disney movies.
And I I it I really enjoyedBeauty and the Beast live

(01:05:46):
action.
Lilo and Stitch was really good.
Really enjoyed Beauty and theBeast.
I would watch Lilo and Stitch,watched Aladdin, and if you put
it by itself, not comparing itto the cartoon, it was good.
I don't want to watch The LionKing re live action.

SPEAKER_01 (01:06:03):
I was more disappointed in the Lion King
one than I was the Aladdin one.

SPEAKER_04 (01:06:06):
That's what I'm afraid of, and that's why I will
not watch The Lion King in reallife because it was such a good
movie.
And I don't want it to betainted.

SPEAKER_01 (01:06:16):
See, that's why I don't know if what's good we do
the Pixar Disney bracket.
I already know what's gonna winfor me.
Next two are Harry Potter,Deathly Hollows, part two, or
The Hobbit.
Harry Potter, Harry Potter,Harry Potter.
Death Yeah.
Well, so that was the finalinstallment.

(01:06:37):
That was the last Harry Pottermovie.
And this is the first Well, theHobbit was the original The
Hobbit, the first Hobbit movie.

SPEAKER_04 (01:06:45):
The first of the three.
Yes.
Which I'm I think you know, Lordof the Rings, big fan.
Hobbit loves.

SPEAKER_01 (01:06:55):
I like Hobbits.
I love the Hobbit movies morethan I like the Lord of the
Rings movies.
But I like the book also.
Like I think that's what put itover the top for me.
In a book.
In a book.
If it's me picking this.

SPEAKER_04 (01:07:07):
We can go with the Hobbit on that one.
We we can.
I mean, I mean, if you'retalking franchises, I would
probably vote Harry Potter, butThe Hobbit.

SPEAKER_01 (01:07:16):
Here's what I was gonna get back to is this is my
second favorite Harry Pottermovie.

SPEAKER_04 (01:07:20):
Yeah.

SPEAKER_01 (01:07:22):
So I would pick Harry Potter.

SPEAKER_04 (01:07:24):
What's your first Goblet of Fire?
The first one.
Oh, Sorcerer's Stone.
Yep.
I like Goblet of Fire a littlebit.

SPEAKER_01 (01:07:30):
Goblet of Fire was good.
Yeah.
That's the one where Cedricdies.
Yes.
Yep.

SPEAKER_04 (01:07:37):
Spoiler alert.
That's a good one.
It's 20 years old, but if youhaven't seen it, I'm sorry.

Okay.

SPEAKER_01 (01:07:48):
Next one.
Oh boy.
Oh boy.
Oh boy.

Beauty and the Beast is amazing.
It was the only other than Liloand Stitch, it's my favorite

(01:09:05):

one.

SPEAKER_02 (01:09:26):
Infinity.

SPEAKER_01 (01:09:27):

SPEAKER_04 (01:09:34):
Tst tst you ever listened to DJ Dark Zone?
Yeah.
Infinity in your hands.

SPEAKER_01 (01:09:44):

SPEAKER_01 (01:09:50):
No.
Ooh.
Transformers Age of Extinction.
So that's the one with MarkWahlberg.

SPEAKER_01 (01:10:15):
That's the newest one.
That's the Beasts one.
I already clicked on it.
It doesn't matter.
Alice in Wonderland live action,which was actually pretty good.
That's what Johnny Depp is theMad Hatter.
Yes.
Or the Black Panther.

SPEAKER_02 (01:10:31):
That's a tough one.
They're No, it isn't.
It's not talking.
Okay, fine, Johnny Depp.
No, it's a Black Panther.
Black Panther, fine.
Whatever.

SPEAKER_01 (01:10:41):
Titanic or Captain America Civil War.
That's the one where Civil Waris the one where Tony Stark
figures out that Winter Soldierkilled his parents.
Very good.
Very good.
However.

(01:11:03):
Titanic.
Titanic.
I can agree with that.
Live action Aladdin or HarryPotter Deathly Hollows Part 2.

SPEAKER_02 (01:11:16):
Harry Potter.
For me.
Me too.

SPEAKER_01 (01:11:20):
Star Wars Episode 1, Phantom Menace, or Jurassic

SPEAKER_01 (01:11:34):
Clever girl.
A live action, Beauty and theBeast, or Rogue One, a Star Wars
story.

SPEAKER_04 (01:11:45):

and the Beast more than I'mwatching Rogue One.
I am too.

SPEAKER_01 (01:11:50):
I fall asleep every time, honestly.
Avengers Infinity War orTransformers Age of Extinction.

SPEAKER_04 (01:11:56):

SPEAKER_02 (01:12:09):
Titanic.
Okay.

SPEAKER_01 (01:12:12):
Jurassic Park or live action Beauty and the
Beast.
Jurassic Park.

SPEAKER_02 (01:12:17):
Mm-hmm.

SPEAKER_01 (01:12:22):
Avengers, Infinity War, or Black Panther?
My Black Panther was phenomenal.
The reason I liked it the most,or why I liked it so much, is
because of Killmonger, becauseof Michael B.
Jordan.
That is why I like that movie somuch.

(01:12:43):
Chadwick Bozeman was amazing.

SPEAKER_05 (01:12:44):
Yeah.

SPEAKER_01 (01:12:46):
But Michael B.
Jordan is a phenomenal bad guy.
Titanic or Jurassic Park?
This is this is tough.

SPEAKER_03 (01:12:54):
That is very difficult.
For me, it's Jurassic Park.

SPEAKER_01 (01:12:59):
If I had to sit down and those two movies were in
front of me, it'd for me it'sJurassic Park.
Every time every time.
Jurassic Park or Black Panther.
This is the final four.
This would be in the final four.
I'm still Jurassic Park.
I'm still picking Jurassic Park.
I can just have almost everyday.
Yeah.
So this is the other side of thebracket now.

(01:13:20):
So we're on the other side.
Other movies that made onebillion dollars worldwide.

SPEAKER_02 (01:13:25):
One billion dollars.

Incredibles too, which is a phenomenal fucking
movie.

I'm gonna go Incredibles too,but I'm gonna touch on this
quick.
That movie gave me stomachaches.

Um while Keen Phoenix was crazygood in that movie.
Yes, he was.
Uh next to The Dark Knight withHeath Ledger or Zootopia.

(01:14:13):

I don't think so either.
Next two, Finding Dory or FrozenTwo.

SPEAKER_04 (01:14:21):

series.
It is.
And the Rise of Skywalker is thesecond one.
Yes.
Because The Last Jedi was thethird one.

I already know which one you'regonna pick on this too.
Lord of the Rings, The Return ofthe King, or Pirates of the
Caribbean, Dead Man's Chest.

Dead Man's Chest is really good.
It's it's it put up a goodshowing.

I was just that that's the worstPirates of the Caribbean movie.
Penelope Cruz.
That's the one where it's allfucked up, right?
Yeah.
Yeah.
Well, not not fucked up, butit's it's like it's the fourth

Barbosa is like a commander inthe Royal Navy fleet.
Yeah, it's shit.
It's like I said, it's allfucked up.

SPEAKER_04 (01:16:48):
I don't like it.
It's not a pirates movie.
It's not good.

SPEAKER_01 (01:16:51):
Next two movies, Toy Story 4 or Toy Story 3.
Toy Story 3.
I agree.
Next two movies The Fate of theFurious.
So Fast and Furious, Fate of theFurious.
Got it.
Okay.
That's the one.
I don't know.
I don't know exactly.
They all blend together.
Or Furious 7.

SPEAKER_04 (01:17:11):
What what is this?

SPEAKER_01 (01:17:13):
Seven for me.
I seven was good.
I liked seven.
Yeah, they're all the same.
Incredibles two or the darkknight?
Dark Knight.
Thank you.
Frozen two or Iron Man 3.
Iron Man 3.
Okay.
I can read that.
Minions or the Force Awakens.
The Force Awakens.
Yep.
Return of the King or Age ofUltron.

SPEAKER_04 (01:17:35):
I'm saying Return of the King.

SPEAKER_01 (01:17:38):
Okay.
I I okay.
Just based on based onnostalgia.
I'll just go with that.
Toy Story 3 or Furious 7?
Furious 7.

(01:17:58):
Okay.
Dark Knight or Iron Man 3?
Dark Knight.
Thank you.
Force Awakens or Return of theKing?

I don't 100% agree with that,but we'll go with it.
Dark Knight or Return of theKing?
Dark Knight.

(01:18:18):
Thank you.
Lane's gonna hate me for that,but Dark Knight.
So I believe this is the f otherhalf of our final four.
Dark Knight or Furious Seven?
Dark Knight.
Okay.
Now, this is the finals.
So just to recap, our final fouron the other side, what or the
final two on the other side wereuh Black Panther and Jurassic

(01:18:41):
Park.
Remember that Tony and I wereboth born either in the 90s or
in the late 80s, so we grew upon some pretty good movies.
Jurassic Park has a specialplace in both of our cinematic
hearts.
I can probably recite most ofthe movie.
Must drive faster.
Must drive faster.

(01:19:02):
And I could sit down and watchJurassic Park almost every
single day.
Now, on the other side of thisbracket, the final two movies
were The Dark Knight and FuriousSeven snuck in there somehow.
I don't know how much I reallyagree with this list, but we're
just gonna go with it anyway.

(01:19:23):
In my opinion, the Dark Knightis one of the most perfect
pieces of cinematography ever.
I think it's beautiful.
I think it's one of the bestmovies ever created.
I think it is the best, youcould call it superhero movies,
I guess.
Definitely the best DC movie.
I just I don't find one singleflaw in the entire thing.

(01:19:44):
The only thing I think JurassicPark has on the Dark Knight is
the soundtrack or the musicscore.
Even though the Dark Knightsscore was phenomenal.
It was.

SPEAKER_04 (01:20:00):
I agree.

SPEAKER_01 (01:20:01):
Nothing against Jurassic Park because Jurassic
Park was so far ahead of itstime when it was made.
And I believe it was 1993.
You people can fact check me.
To be able to put dinosaurs in amovie the way that Spielberg did
was uh nice push.
Sorry.
It was a feat in itself.

(01:20:23):
The acting in the movie wasfantastic, the music, the
setting, uh everything aboutJurassic Park was phenomenal for
the for 1993.
The animatronics phenomenalanimatronic animatronics were
not even really a thing then.
But it's definitely uh the DarkKnight.
Heath Ledger's best movie,Christian Bale's best movie.

(01:20:44):
Oh yeah.
Probably a top three, if not thebest Christopher Nolan movie.
And he's a he's a really gooddirector.
So uh so like we said, finalswere Jurassic Park and the Dark
Knight, uh Dark Knight taken ithome for movies that made one
billion dollars worldwide.

(01:21:06):
Billion dollars.
So take that to the bank, takethat, put that in your pipe and
smoke it.

SPEAKER_04 (01:21:14):
Put it in your pipe and smoke it.
