Every time someone says exactly. I start twitching

like, exactly I'm not again.

Murph (01:10):
I don't know what that means. He didn't wait no story
whatsoever. I keep thinking justshutter it exactly. That's all I
got from that story. I

Zac Saleski (01:18):
keep thinking someone's gonna call me during
class and like, oh, no, no,

Murph (01:21):
that's like me saying I hate the word car. Like what
story car? Like, I don't getanything from that. Because I
guess you don't realize wehaven't introduced our podcast
team yet.

Zac Saleski (01:34):
Wow, man. Yeah. We got to log on the world's worst
podcast. Zach and this is Tyler.

Murph (01:41):

Zac Saleski (01:47):
Oh, this is the first episode.

Murph (01:51):
So many of so much. So many.

Zac Saleski (01:55):
First Edition of Maple Glazed. Kind of weird to
say that but now it's startingto come to fruition. I'm happy.

Unknown (02:02):
Although this word, fruition fruition. Fruit topia.

Murph (02:08):
Zootopia

Zac Saleski (02:13):
sponsored by fruit topia, that's no longer around,
shall we?

Murph (02:16):
Is it like, is it like puzzles? We tell them the name
or should we just not tell themthe name and just let them guess
it over time? What? Like how mygrandmother like the puzzles
like she'll explain to them whyit's called nipple gray glaze.
Like, I don't really know if wehave a theme to this. We're just
kind of going as we go.

Zac Saleski (02:30):
Oh, yeah. So yeah, so two and a half minutes in we
barely even said the name.

Murph (02:34):
Welcome and you suck.

Zac Saleski (02:37):
I don't even know how to properly describe it. I
guess. I don't know. It's

Murph (02:42):
you can't you just can't.
It's too good to know. You justcan't quantify it.

Zac Saleski (02:47):
I mean, I spent how many weeks trying to figure out
how can I make it too many weeksAmerican? Yeah. and Canadian
without being too American ortwo Canadians. How can I balance
this thing out? So this is no

Murph (02:59):
doughnuts. This is

Zac Saleski (03:01):
the best I can do.
Yeah, right. Like I kept I keptthinking all right, people
associate maple with Canadianglaze with fat Americans. Let's
just blend together Maple Glazed

Murph (03:12):
crazy like the doughnuts.
So you know, it's kind of goesboth ways till we unify.

Zac Saleski (03:16):
Not officially sponsored by Tim Hortons.

Murph (03:19):
Oh my gosh. If we were I feel like that's where we drop
the balls a podcast. We shouldbe eating doughnuts while we're
doing this podcast. Damn it,right. Oh, God. I know. This is
bad. I know. But I don't want toget too fat so it'd be bad.

Zac Saleski (03:34):
Guess what filling this one is? Oh my gosh. Me.

Murph (03:39):
Never said they'd be filling in though.

Zac Saleski (03:42):
Oh, that's a surprise one. All right.

Murph (03:44):
Yeah, seriously. Hunger Games crap.

Zac Saleski (03:49):
So I I kind of figured that, you know, when I
was when I was kind of sittingdown like figuring this out. I
told Murphy idea, but I thinkhe's like, whatever. Let's do
it. Yeah. Cool.

Murph (03:59):
I'm down, down, down

Zac Saleski (04:00):

The most like middle groundCanadian can be like, Yeah,
let's do it. Okay, cool. Yeah,so we are

Unknown (04:10):
here. So let's get somewhere.

Zac Saleski (04:12):
So I kind of figured, well, if we're going to
do it that way, then you know,we'll just talk about random
stuff that we've experiencedthen we can have merps You know
Canadian NIS I like it you knowpoint of view and that you can
have my you know, countryAmerican ridiculous. Yeah. Kind
of intermingled really well.
It's true.

Murph (04:34):
Yes. You know, it's even funny that I don't even know
what this podcast is about.
Totally right now. This is youliterally pulling all this stuff
out of here. I've got I have notscripted right now. I'm just off
script. I forgot to Oh, shit,right. Speaking which I forgot.
I don't know or asked you this.
Is it true that the Wizard of Ozis Missouri right. That's took
place in Missouri, Kansas alittle bit? Yeah. Well, that's

(04:56):
Kansas, Kansas. Yeah. Okay.
Well, as you can see, Missouri,so I know USA I know you guys

the Chiefs play in Kansas rightwalking out of the here

Murph (05:20):
so the rules did there we go yeah there you go. I do got
it. So first let's come back tothat video we just pause there
for a second it gave me like thedepth to bed I don't have the
camera on me so you see thatdeath glare and then just like
just like I'm just gonna skipright past that. Right pastor?

Zac Saleski (05:40):
So we are we are actually filming this and this
is going to be kind of a weirdthing because we're like
recording it we're filming itand then I got to match the
audio with the video it's gonnabe hard.

Murph (05:53):
Really hard that's what she said but prayer Oh, you know
what those speaking of crazythings when I was watching you
before I got here you seen squidgames yet? Netflix.

Zac Saleski (06:04):
I saw like terrible things on on tick tock some
weird Asian man running around.

Murph (06:10):
Dude it's so it's South Korea South Korean and right. Oh
God, right. So BTS right now?
No. Yeah, no seriously like it'stakes place in South Korea. It's
something like I don't even knowI don't think is again. I really
don't know. I haven't gotten tothe point yet. If I know if
they're filming it or not. It'sreally just this like it's
literally just like thiscompetition to like, earn this

(06:32):
money, but people die during it.
So I'm not gonna give itspoilers, but I recommend you
watch it. I literally bingewatched two episodes. Like, oh,
I was about to bench a third butjust didn't have time. But yeah,
it's good. Really good.

Zac Saleski (06:47):
Damn. Yeah. I've been shot tonight.

Murph (06:49):
I think there's only nine. There's only one season
nine episodes.

Unknown (06:53):
Everybody would love that. Right? Yeah, it's

Murph (06:55):
crazy. Exactly.

Zac Saleski (06:58):
You say? No, there's no episodes Yeah. First
joke. Nice. Try for

Unknown (07:08):
scoreboard right

Murph (07:10):
now, man. It's yeah, it's it's good. I highly recommend
it. But like, it's weird becauseit's Korean. So they dubbed it
with English so the mounts don'tmatch the what's saying, but
it's actually like, not bad.
Like, it's not terrible. It's asbad as you thought like, was the
show used to watch like, thatwas big. When we were kids. It
was on Spike. The Japanese showwhere they would debate with

(07:32):
stupid American stuff. And itwas like a game shows where they
do stupid things. ObstacleCourse stuff. Yeah. Again.

Zac Saleski (07:41):
I was watched silent library. So

Murph (07:44):
Oh, yeah, that was good.
But no, this was the it waslike, like, watch like 1am It
was kind of funny. I can't thinkoh my god. Yeah. Oh, you don't
talk about? You've definitelyseen there's Yeah.

Zac Saleski (07:55):
Because if you've been up like two or three in the
morning, yeah. When you wake upoff the couch like ha

Unknown (07:59):
Oh, yeah, that's right.
Yeah. Yeah,

Zac Saleski (08:04):
I totally. Some obstacle course thing. Yeah,
literally,

Murph (08:06):
it was like, I think it was like a legit show in Japan.
And then America took it andthey're like, Hey, let's just
add stupid English audio to it.
Yes. Really? All they didbecause they did like the
craziest dumbest events I'veever seen. Like, yeah, it's like
that video that got reallypopular where they're all like
lubed up and have to go somestairs but they all keep falling
before they get to the top likeYeah, it's like that stuff.

Zac Saleski (08:27):
Just have a show with that but be like the grease
up deaf guy. Just run around tosee people can catch you.

Murph (08:34):
I think that's it's kind of like that. Except you know,

Zac Saleski (08:36):
they're not. That's what my mind went to.

Murph (08:38):
Yeah, you know, you're sick person. That's fine. Why
don't we Deaf? Like a normalperson?

Zac Saleski (08:44):
The Family Guy.

Murph (08:46):
I love Family Guy but oh man.

Unknown (08:50):
You ever see parasite?

Zac Saleski (08:52):
No. Oh, that one?
It's

Murph (08:55):
the same. It's a movie.

Zac Saleski (08:56):
It's a South Korean movie. Okay, and that's kind of
where all this stuff kind ofstarted with the South Korean
movement it's like that was theone movie they kind of broke out
with everything

Murph (09:06):
with the enemy no enemies Japanese okay. It's

Zac Saleski (09:09):
basically it's it's like this poor family is trying
to get by by any means necessarybut it takes wild turns. And so
it's I I really can't give itaway because there's there's so
many like different angles thattakes and you're like

Murph (09:24):
it's up to you I'm gonna be honest with you. I am no
desire to watch it. Probablywill never happened it I
honestly probably

Zac Saleski (09:31):
say it better than you know. The show you show
you're talking about

Murph (09:36):
Oh, you haven't seen it good.

Zac Saleski (09:39):
I know. Good. I know this stuff.

Murph (09:43):
Trust me. Like I said yeah, there's already a bunch of
stuff on Tik Tok and all thatcoming out about this show. It's
huge right now.

Zac Saleski (09:50):
Basically parasites like these guys. They this
family is trying to get by andthis this lucky, lucky guy. It's
kids like in high school whenthey're in the sun. He gets like
this really good job, getting ajob within a family, I think
being a tutor or something. Andthen

Murph (10:07):
a really good job, like teachers get paid, it's great,
will be terribly like

Zac Saleski (10:11):
a private tutor for like, family. So he's making all
his money and he's helping outthings a little brother, or
something like that. And then hehe sees this younger girl walk
by starts to, like, havefeelings for and then he doesn't
realize that he come keepscoming home. He gives a little
bit of money to his family andthey're like, already work and

(10:32):
basically they slowly thisfamily starts to slowly walk in
and starts to take the place ofall the workers at this. Oh,

Murph (10:41):
so it's a mind. Okay, I like it my mess ups. Okay.

Zac Saleski (10:44):
It's wild. And it's it. Sorry if you guys sorry.
Like, it sounds like it's been

Murph (10:51):
out for a long enough time. Yeah. Two years, man.
Yeah, the funniest part is thatwe're describing all this but
we're sitting in front of acomputer and we could like have
watched a preview right now. Weprobably don't think that's how
I like it. I know. That's howpodcasts work, because that's
how that that was it that thatbig tick tock thing came up or

Oh, yeah. Continue. routes,routes. routes

Zac Saleski (14:08):
with their butt off.

Murph (14:09):
It's right. Oh,

Zac Saleski (14:10):
somewhere a little bit of gobbledygook on this one.
He Um, no. So they were askingme like how did you and Tyler
meet? Like some nice

Murph (14:19):
romantic dinner

Zac Saleski (14:24):
I said give me your lunch money. He said how much
and then he gave me the money.

Murph (14:31):
Like how about something in the back of school?

Zac Saleski (14:36):
About this Bosco sticks. Oh man.

Murph (14:40):
Those were those crack.

Zac Saleski (14:43):
Just a big mozzarella or like a big horror
break for you right stick with

Murph (14:49):
just over processed all that stuff like oil spread on
top guy. Yeah. Like it'sterrible for that. Yeah. Not
even close to being at Italianare what like it just literally
the most garbage? Like theyprobably put like a cheese stick
and bread and made it but it wasso good.

Zac Saleski (15:07):
Simple. So some kids mess that up. Yeah, but we,
man that should have beencurrency in eighth grade. Oh my
I think

Murph (15:14):
kind of was in some markets we just weren't cool
enough to be in those markets.

Unknown (15:18):
It's getting the Facebook. Yeah.

Zac Saleski (15:21):
But no we I shall take How about how about you
explain how we met first? Howabout we do that?

Murph (15:28):
I don't think we always get our stories different on
this business differently. Yeah,I always remember them
differently, but basically wasattention whore and middle
school now? Uh, well, I guessyou can say kind of I don't
know. Anyway, me. Oh, I don'tknow. Anyway, regardless, the
specific example I can rememberwas, I had a class with him. And

(15:48):
I myself was new to Columbus,but only like a few years. And
he was like brand spankin newfrom Missouri. So I was like,
okay, cool. And then I'll justnever forget, he introduced
himself in one of our classes.
And he's like, it was an Englishclass. So like, oh, just write
these brief sentences aboutyourself. Introduce yourself.
And he was like, you know, myname is Zack, I play football.
I'm a big guy. And I'm sexy. Andlike, everyone laughed, and I

(16:10):
was just like, I like this guy.
He's, you know, he says what hewants to say, and I respect that
I'm too quiet. I'm too shy. Irespect that. He just goes for
it. So I think I'm looking athomeroom together. I can't
remember what we had together.
We had something together.

Zac Saleski (16:26):
It was a thing I told people was had a study,
somebody actually

Murph (16:31):
had something. But it wasn't like class class. It was
like time that you couldactually talk to people a little
bit too. Because it feel like inthe US, you can't talk to other
students during class and theteachers are like, Yo, we're
teaching. But like other stuff,you can talk like homeroom and
study center, whatever. You cancollaborate, collaborate is
probably the better word. Let'sgo. Yeah, I like that. Even
though we're not collaborating,but that's probably what we're
doing.

Zac Saleski (16:51):
That's what we're doing right now. actly. Exactly.

Murph (16:53):
So yeah, so we just said, you know, elaborate, just kind
of started chatting, and allthat. And then we actually
awesome kid, little needy, butwe I gave him a heads up about a
kid that always introducedhimself to all the new kids. And
he was always kind of a needykid that I made the mistake of
like, hanging out with a littlebit. And then he kind of I
shouldn't say that he was areally nice guy. But

(17:14):
unfortunately, he was just tooneedy that you're just kind of
like, Yo, dude, I need space. Ineed all this. Yeah, he was on
the scale somewhere. I don'tknow. I don't want to talk too
bad about him. He was a greatheart. Good kid. He just
unfortunately, and I might evensay his name because it's just
not right. But it's justUnfortunately, one of those
people that you know, when youmeet people, they mean well, but
it's just too much

Zac Saleski (17:34):
that you're just too nice to say like, yeah, no,
thank you. That's

Murph (17:37):
the Canadian me. I'm not gonna be like, Yo, dude, you're
creeped me out, like, get thehell away from me. I got it was
just kind of like, yeah, youknow, kind of started to back
away from him a little bit like,you know, hung out with him a
few times outside of school andlike lunches and all that, but
he just was a little toohardcore, strong. But yeah, and
anyway, so I kind of warned himabout him. And then we were just

(17:57):
like chat. And then he becamegood buddies with other friends
that I kind of had. And we'dhave like lunch together and all
that and just kind of worked outsimilar because we were both new
people in Ohio, and we bothshouldn't say this, but
especially here in Ohio, Ohio.
You hate Ohio State. It's likean instant brotherhood. So we
were not all fans and everyoneelse here is Ohio State fans. So
that was a big deal.

Zac Saleski (18:19):
It's a it's a weird,

Murph (18:21):
it's a weird, weird culture. I think the thing we
agreed the thing that annoys usis like people that don't go
there are like huge Ohio Statefans, I can understand if it's
like a professional sport. LikeI respect that I promote that
blue jackets, Cavs football,soccer, whatever, but when it's
college and you never went therelike kind of weird to me, like

(18:43):
really weird like, you know, thekids pretty much that are you
know 18 To 24 playing that role,you know, they're just there to
better their life and go on tothe next chapter and people
they're like people here arelike, diehard about it. Like

Zac Saleski (18:57):
the weird thing was like, we would go to Murph went
to Miami, Ohio, but then go

Unknown (19:02):
Hawks. Go Hawks, or Red Hawks go skins.

Zac Saleski (19:05):
Exactly, yeah, it's good told her club football. But
it'd be weird because even whenI was in Akron, or other places,
it always be like, oh, like,what are you doing? I'm gonna
watch the Ohio State game. Yeah,but there's but the team was
playing on Saturday. Yeah, I wasgonna watch how state Yeah, I'm
a bigger fan. I'm like, yeah,what's Why are you here?

Murph (19:25):
Seriously? Like, yeah, I

Zac Saleski (19:27):
never understood.

Murph (19:27):
Yeah, we had a D one football team and people would
pay all people would watch OhioState Games over the Miami game.
So it'd be like, Oh, you go intoMiami, unfortunately, didn't go
to Miami games. That was like,you know, you're going to Miami
game like, Nah, watching thelast eight games on the same
time. Like what? Like, I'm notgoing because I just want to go
but I'm going to do other thingsand watch the Ohio State game.
So I actually like doing mychores on Saturday, during your

(19:48):
house State Games that the cityis like dead. You can go
anywhere and do anything becauseeveryone's just watching the on
state game. Sides. Bars, barsare packed. Bars are always
packed. It's cool. I mean, Itell everyone that comes and
visits like go experience it's areally cool thing but when you
live here for as long as we'velived just kind of after wired
kind of like, you know, we needwe need more professional
sports. We need an NFL team wereally basketball. I mean

(20:11):
clippers doing fine on anybaseball but I'm busy more

Zac Saleski (20:14):
verbally abused one time from a chick in high school
because she said, Well, youdon't like Ohio State, even
though you live here. I'm like,I've been here like two years.
Exactly. She liked him. Like,it's not that easy now. I don't.
And then I got yelled at forthat. That made me hate him even
more. I'm like, You know what,suddenly I like Michigan now.

Murph (20:33):
Right? I used to actually it was like, Yeah, I want to go
to for a long time. I was like,I think I want to go to Michigan
just because of that. And then Irealized the academic standards
are very high that I'm notmaking yay. But like, Yeah, I
actually had a buddy that wentthere. But yeah, it's like,
Yeah, it's crazy. It's yeah, Istill I used to have Michigan
stuff all over my golf clubs andI used to wear some Michigan's

(20:53):
gear and like, it's crazy thatevery it's like not that big a
deal to Michigan, Michigan versOSU but it's bigger Do you here
in Ohio, because Ohio doesn'thave any rivals. So Michigan is
the only rival they can thinkof? Definitely, because like
Michigan is Michigan State.
That's their big rivalry whereit's like, they don't really
care about Ohio State.

Zac Saleski (21:13):
A little bit. So during oshio, Michigan week they
do but yeah, any other time,right? Yeah,

Murph (21:17):
it gets so crazy. They cancel out the app, so they will
go in every time they put anextra this Michigan's logo.

Zac Saleski (21:24):
I realized just how boring Columbus was. This was
probably like six years ago,where the Statehouse decided
well they were literally doingnothing that week, they decided
to make a bill where Ohio Statehas to play at least one in
state team every single everysingle year. It's like what are

(21:47):
we doing? But that's the billsthat we're making here like
aren't you have to play Akron orMiami Bowling Green Toledo like
Okay,

Murph (21:55):
so in all fairness though, it helps those schools
so they're like hey, we'replaying Ohio State so it helps
get the probably the three staror four star recruits that are
going after but yeah

Zac Saleski (22:06):
I mean Cincinnati could probably take it to him
this time but

Murph (22:09):
did they beat Florida? No no they beat Notre Dame that's
crazy. You KV in order

Zac Saleski (22:14):
want to know why?
Because they set in Cincinnatiand they just they recruited the
heck out of that that whole areaand they just got the fastest
guys in that area which if youguys don't know Cincinnati is
like just

Murph (22:26):
solid data good athletes down there. Oh, I got some good
athletes on their

Zac Saleski (22:30):
their their high school football is probably some
of the most competitive and andI would argue in the nation
their conferences that strongyear in year out and they got
some great kids. I think themost recent one that got drafted
was checks and Carmen I gotdrafted by Cincinnati but he
played at Clemson but it justlike having now that we got a

(22:51):
few other guys getting looked atby Alabama and whatnot, but it's
it's insane. It's wild and soit's man It's one reason why
they're winning. But sorry getoff on get off on football.
Golfing tangent not get offsorry

Murph (23:08):
sorry about that. Maybe he does after

Zac Saleski (23:12):
Oh Murphy's just chomping at the bit, I'm just
setting him off for doubleentendres all damn day.

Murph (23:17):
I do want to say I don't contribute much else yet just
like you know, lying in theweeds like our Hario he's common
That's what she said but someonesaid

Zac Saleski (23:30):
but yeah Murphy and I that meeting in middle school
kind of worked

Murph (23:33):
out we yeah, we really went off a tangent there by the
way. Yeah. Right It was reallyreally big. We love becoming the
price someone anyone lasted thislong on this podcast. That's
what Joe Alright, so yeah, wemet

Zac Saleski (23:46):
Middle School we we met in middle school and
basically I don't we werefriends but we weren't like
super close until about latehigh school.

Unknown (23:54):
Yeah, I'd say that it's like slowly kind of built a
build we build our

Murph (23:59):
ticket a sugar plant we had to get some you know, put
some good soil at it a littlebit of shit some water
fertilizer, keep the weeds awaytook

Zac Saleski (24:07):
a few shots along the way but zactly we go no,
it's we I end up having someother friends where I've had is
like this other group of friendswe kind of like I talked to
everybody so we kind of likeslowly just kind of got to know
each other over the last fewyears and I think junior senior
year we really became close andhigh college was the same way

(24:30):
and then I don't know it'sweird. We always kind of go on
different paths but we alwayskind of come back some you know,
way shape or form so

Murph (24:40):
he didn't think we would hold through what that
professional football you weregoing for. And you ended up back
here still. So it's funny. We'reboth in high school like
connected over like, not thebiggest fans of Ohio ready to
leave at any moment. And yet3130 years old, so this will be
what man were what over 10 yearsafter high school. Right?
Exploring Jesus.

Unknown (25:01):
Yeah. Before old 12 years.

Zac Saleski (25:03):
Yeah, we're

Murph (25:04):
oh nine Yeah, graduate.
oh nine. So yeah, that's Chico'scheese. But yeah, it's

Zac Saleski (25:09):
I didn't it didn't not hit me how old I was when it
wasn't like the alumni likegetting saying it in Dakota it
was for me it was, oh, who wasit this year, I think a couple
of her classmates got inductedinto the, into our high schools
Hall of Fame. And I'm like, wow.
And these guys are gettingspecial awards. And I'm like,
Oh, wow. I'm, I'm shit. I alwayslove how people kind of have

(25:36):
that moment like, the hell haveI done?

Murph (25:39):
You know what, though, in all fairness, like, it's to the
people that listen that are fromColumbus. It's like, it's quiet,
but it's a good it's not tooexpensive. You can kind of do
pretty well around here. Justkind of, you know, work in and
live in. And, you know, a lot ofpeople come back a lot of people
come back, like if people leavefor a bit, but then they come
back pretty quickly. It's reallyweird. Yeah, it's very weird.

Zac Saleski (26:00):
Like, kids will literally they'll go out of
state for college for like ayear or two. And they always
come back.

Murph (26:05):
No, it's my guess. Yeah, we didn't go out of state
because like, oh, yeah, we wentto the area. I mean, I

Zac Saleski (26:10):
did. I started

Murph (26:12):
out. Sorry. Yeah, you did? Yeah.

Zac Saleski (26:13):
Then it kind of came. came

Murph (26:15):
out. I was kind of a shitty school though. Well, like
who goes like Dakota? Iowa? Ilove it. Same thing. It's all
the same out there.

Zac Saleski (26:24):
I wanted to be close. I wanna be. I wanna, I
wanna

Murph (26:29):
what? Sorry, this way you say that? I want to Iowa. I want
to be closer.

Unknown (26:33):
Oh, god. Yeah. Get out of here. Oh, yeah, I forced you
out of here, kid.

Zac Saleski (26:40):
You out of here, man. I know, I wanted to be
closer to Missouri. Like tocancel. Yeah, I was only like
three hours away. And I wantedto have that freedom in case I
want to go down there. Buthonestly, I was like, I realized
what I got. I was like, notgonna get my car here. What the
hell am I gonna do? Right? Butthen, yeah, I spent a year

(27:01):
there. And then I told thecoaches. I had it my exit
meeting. And they looked at me.
And they said, Well, I got toask this because, you know, you
know, I asked everybody this,but I already know the answer.
So you're gonna come back nextyear? I'm like, probably not. I
don't know what. Like, what,what do we need to do? And then
like, I told them anymore money,man. It's just very expensive to
go to school here for no reason,right? And they're like, they're

(27:24):
like, Oh, we'll get back to youabout a week or two. And like,
let you know, like, I gotta tellher coach, and we'll figure
something out. I didn't hearanything. So it was weird. Like,
it was a mass exodus. It wasn'tme. It was like, just me and
like, 20 other kids that left.
And I think three other kids inthe plane like, you know, at
least do you wonder why here doyou one. And they all got

(27:46):
redshirted, like the year beforein our school. I was like, What
the hell are you gonna do? Sheis?

Murph (27:51):
Yeah. Yeah, that's, that's, that's the part about
the small schools. They're notcheap. Like, especially what was
Catholic to right,

Unknown (27:59):
Franciscan? Yeah, but,

Zac Saleski (28:03):
uh, it's interesting. It's like, it's not
like, it's a branch underCatholicism, but it's like,

Murph (28:09):
like California and

Zac Saleski (28:12):
California Catholicism? Yeah, like, take
the highway never get off.

Murph (28:17):
Smoke weed every once in a while, you know? This is close
to godness. You know, it's allgood,

Zac Saleski (28:23):
man. We all live under the underpass. We're fine,
man. I'm gonna get killed onthat one. But no, it's
Franciscans like you. It'sbasically what's what's the term
like volunteer basically, theirwhole religion or like subset of
religions, like you volunteeryour time to help others and you

(28:45):
just, that's kind of yourcommunity service, basic
community service type ofCatholicism a niche,

Murph (28:53):
like all all religions are community service based.
Like,

Zac Saleski (28:57):
it's, well it's under base under St. Francis,
which gave his time to the poorand okay, the not healthy and,
and so I was I mean, he wascool. I had fun. But I was like,
you know, it was a nonprofit. Sothere's like, no money coming
in. Oh, this is. And some of theteachers

Murph (29:14):
they still had a football team. Interesting. That's,

Zac Saleski (29:16):
I know, it's expensive to do that. I'm
sitting there like, in class,and I had some of my best
teachers there. But the rest ofthe teachers were just angry and
I don't blame them. It's Iowa.
It's cold.

Unknown (29:27):
Oh, yeah. I get it.

Murph (29:28):
Yeah. Yes. Had under I've never heard that before
underground walkways. The classwas so much snow. That's
awesome. No, but

Zac Saleski (29:34):
they would have these underground. These
underground little tunnels thatconnect to like the main
building. So if you're, youcould actually wear shorts in
the winter. And like, you know,ultra freezing temperatures and
go from building the building.
But it was it was kind of Imean, it was cool for a few
weeks. And but it was lonely.

Murph (29:53):
Like it was like that's like the that's like the premise
of like a scary movie orsomething like city or something
like was ease

Zac Saleski (30:00):
Akron was like that almost because we, because you
would get to like, the campuswas fine. But on Fridays like
I've never seen anything likebecause it's such a commuter
school like it was dead. Like onFriday night it was dead. I'm
like where the hell is everybodyat? I remember thinking myself
I'm like, even like the thesorority of frat like, road.

(30:22):
Yeah, there's like one row ofall like, ready for houses and
they're like, there's a couplehouses partying and songs and
college is bigger than Miami.
Like this sucks. Like, give meout. And I live I live in an
apartment. That was across thestreet from a Oh, a gay bar. I'm
like, Oh, no. And every now thatI look outside, and you just see

(30:46):
like this, this gate, he justlike wave me and like, Oh, no.
Oh, yeah, they're

Murph (30:54):
recruiting.

Zac Saleski (30:56):
Like, wow, you're a large man. Oh, boy, but now it's
it's, I am happy. It's weird,because, you know, like I said
before Murph and I kind of liketake your time away from each
other then we just kind of comeback. No, it's not. It's not
gay. No, it's It's bro. Lovepodcast.

Murph (31:14):
It's podcast, podcast.
podcast, podcast. No, it's fun.
Fun. It's been great. Yeah. Whydon't you smack me? I don't
know. We smack me. Do it.

Zac Saleski (31:31):
No, it's It's been interesting. Yeah. Good time.
Very good time. So more of HouseHouse Canadia.

Murph (31:37):
It's been a while since I've been there. So I really
can't tell you so. Yeah, right.
That's it on there. That's awhole nother thing. Because my
keys

Zac Saleski (31:49):
just glaze. No, no maple.

Murph (31:50):
Exactly. Now, I'm being a Trudeau one. So that was kind of
cool. I guess. Barely. But hewon.

Zac Saleski (31:59):
He stopped those box. Totally. Probably worth
throwing rocks at him on

Murph (32:03):
the Yeah. And then. Okay, hold on. Actually, I don't know.
We'll see if this gets cut outor give me some sort of sign up
on the wrong way. But I sawsomething's kind of funny. So,
obviously, you saw on the news,right? Uh, hopefully, I don't
know if the podcast listenershave the horrible thing that
happened. I think it was outsideToronto, the indigenous school

(32:23):
and all the bodies that werefound. Oh, damn. Yeah. Did you
hear about that?

Zac Saleski (32:27):
I think I saw like, some headline but I don't

Murph (32:31):
look Yeah, so basically Long story short, but there was
so obviously, you know, horriblebut as history people it was so
me and Zach. I don't think wepreface this either your whole
history people. Now of course.
Zach's history timeline is likecolonial Civil War, American
independence, like that kind ofstuff. Mine's a little more
World War One to like,basically, frat boy history and
Zach's more like, yeah, exactly.

(32:55):
And yeah, in Greek mythology,really, I'm just kind of all
over the place my history, butit is what it is. But anyway, so
yeah, so this article came out.
And so obviously, unfortunately,indigenous people, as they call
them in Canada, or here in theUS, it's Native Americans, or
native or Canada to the commonnatives. Obviously, they had
been oppressed, and they've hadall this crazy stuff happen for
a very long time. Unfortunately,even in Canada, which has been

(33:17):
viewed as, like a veryprogressive country,
unfortunately, has not alwaysbeen that way. In the early
years, yeah. So what happenedwasn't happen here in the US,
too, was there were schools thatwere built made for these Native
American children to go to andthey're mostly Catholic. So
their whole idea was to changethem from their native ways and

(33:38):
make them Catholic. And thethought was in the the excuse
was that the native ways wasdemons. So Catholic was, you
know, basically saving theirsouls. Anyway, so there's this
old yeah, there's old school inCanada. That's been around I
think they said they closed itin like 60s or 70s. Like they've
been around a long time. Longtime. So been around? I don't

(33:58):
know what prompted it. But theydecided they were like, looking
into it. mass graves. Oh,children died.

Zac Saleski (34:07):
shizer Yeah,

Murph (34:08):
I know. It's terrible.
Sorry, this podcasting aboutturn. But anyway, it'll, it'll
Yeah, it'll kind of lead tosomething else here. So comes
out recently, horrible,horrible, horrible, horrible. So
they look into it. Andobviously, you know,
unfortunately, I am Catholic.
But unfortunately, back in theday, which I'm not proud of, you
know, they were they were roughon these kids. And these kids
would try to at least kind ofkeep somewhat of their identity,

(34:30):
which we all should have there.
And I'm a big proponent of that,like, know your history, know,
where you've come from, youknow, lets you know where you've
been, where you've been andwhere you're going. And, you
know, trying to keep thatbasically, the schools are
trying to get do everything theycould to get it out of them. And
sometimes it resulted in theirdeaths. And so instead of
reporting it to their families,they would just bury them and
nothing was ever thought of itbecause indigenous people were

(34:51):
just like, no offense, and Iknow this is a hot button topic
right now, but like, I feel likeindigenous people were lowest on
the totem pole as far as likesocial hierarchies, you and I
mean, like I understand, youknow, that's, that's most people
during that time too. Yeah, likeI understand, like, there were
other groups that were oppressedvery heavily, but I feel like
indigenous have gone through thelongest and the most compared to

(35:12):
a lot of others. And we justdon't cover that, because
there's not a lot of themanymore. Yeah. Which is like, I
would read, I know, people aregonna get triggered for me
telling him that, but like,please do the research. You
know, seriously, don't butplease do the research. Like,
I'm being dead serious. Like,I'm not wrong in saying that,
like, you know, they, for a verylong time. So anyway, obviously,
you know, we had ChristopherColumbus Day completely reversed

(35:33):
now to indigenous holidaybecause of it like you don't
mean like, it's bad. So anyway,so it gets to kind of my current
point. So obviously, Canadiansare very good about recognizing
the faults and trying to make upfor them. So they've decided,
they say to make like the lastday of September, indigenous
day, which is kind ofinteresting. I don't know, they
just decided to do that becauseof all this. So they did it. And

(35:55):
of course, in every special day,there has to be a theme. So the
theme color is orange. Which Iwas kind of like I fit that's
kind of racist. Like, what doesit have to be orange? Like,
that's the indigenous digitusday color. So, so literally all
over Canada. So like my cousinsand my family that are up there,
in that post on social media,were saying were orange on the

(36:17):
last day of September forindigenous day. And like, don't
get me wrong, like, and I know,Zach, I don't mean like, have
good talks about it. But like,Ken is very good about being
somewhat inclusive with a lot ofthings. Very, like, the problem
is, is that they don't do theirresearch when they think of
things. So like, they'll likeinclude things but it's just
like the dumbest stuff that justdoesn't make any sense. Like

(36:39):
they orange. Like I like that'salmost worse, like couldn't have
like, couldn't have consultedsome of the the native because
they're still there.
Unfortunately, they're stillreservations for the native
natives in Canada. And so hedoesn't think they can, like
consulted them and like, I don'tknow, like something better than
just orange. Like,

Zac Saleski (36:57):
I can see the natives now just like, bro,

Murph (36:59):
so yeah, we do seriously, but seriously, like, it's just
yeah, it's I mean, don't get mewrong. The the natives in
Canada, fortunately, it's kindof another hot button topic. But
they because the governmentfeels so bad, they give them
kind of unlimited rights. Solike, here in the US here in the
US in parts of Canada, you can'tif you're driving and see like,

(37:19):
but if you see like, if you seelike a moose or deer, you have
to like respect the boundaries,whereas natives are more than
welcome to shoot them off thehighway. Go grab them, dress
them there and take meat withthem. Oh, yeah, they also don't
have to pay Yeah, they alsodon't have to pay any sort of
sales tax. So like mygrandfather, big if you ever
want cheap gas go to in thenatives, and they don't have

(37:41):
sales tax on our gas. Oh, solike, I know that sounds sounds
two birds with one stone. Iknow. This sounds terribly
racist. But I don't think it'strue. It's unfortunately. So
like, sometimes, unfortunately,Canada Canadians don't always
look great upon the nativesbecause like, they kind of abuse
this stuff. And it's just like,you know, but it's like, but
they're, I mean, I've met a fewof the great people, and it's a

(38:02):
great culture, and it's one Iwish I was a part of, but
unfortunately, it's like, I'mnot I'm Irish. But I'm Canadian.
But like, Yeah, but it's like,you know, but anyway, go back to
my story. It's like, yeah, likeoranges what they've been
designated on one day like, it'slike, you know, yeah, one day
when the US whole hispanicheritage month but like the

(38:22):
negatives get one day in Canadaon the end of September. Oh,
god. Yeah, it's yeah, it's it'sI don't know. I maybe I'm
overthinking when I'm like, Thatseems kind of bad. Like
everything that's come out,

Zac Saleski (38:34):
like, well, that's a hell of a first episode we got
here. Oh, yeah. Versus like, I'mgonna tell you what's wrong with
Canadians. No, I

Murph (38:41):
mean, it's, I mean, I'm not wrong. It's just
unfortunately, it's likeAmerica. No, we

Zac Saleski (38:47):
got our own problems,

Murph (38:48):
right. Well, these Canada, they will recognize it
and I'll try to make the word,but sometimes they do it. Oh,
yeah, they do it too fast.
You're like, just just take sometime. Make sure they're right.

Zac Saleski (38:56):
They're so quick to try to write their wrongs. They
don't even bother. Likerealizing, Oh, this is why we
messed up in the first place.

Murph (39:03):
Seriously, so seriously?
Yeah. Seriously,

Zac Saleski (39:07):
that happens man.
I'm just Oh, yeah, that's God.
But it's it's while and likeMurph said, you know he it's
weird because he kind of where Idon't really like historically
there's areas where like maybemy my knowledge is is very
there's gaps in my knowledge soI guess Murph kind of picks up

(39:28):
where I don't know I try I tryI'm not a big world war one guy
Murphy's Yeah. More World WarTwo American Revolution i a big
revolution.

Murph (39:38):
Actually then we both connect on World War Two because
we're both pretty barren world.

Zac Saleski (39:41):
Yeah. Yeah. Weird.
I think you rely more on like,on you kind of had with them
more Canadian point of view. Ido. Yeah. I do. Like how the
West responds to parts ofEurope. Correct. But I is weird,
because if you guys actually Ido have a YouTube channel.
That's one reason Why we kind ofstarted this podcast because
we're big history nerds. Andobviously, you

Murph (40:04):
know, we both love we both love Europe. Unfortunately,
he's been there more than Ihave. Yeah, yeah. So but we're
both we're both big Europeanhistory people. It's just yeah,
he knows a lot more than I have.
And he's been over there morethan I have. But yeah,
seriously,

Zac Saleski (40:17):
it's mainly because of football. But that's kind of
that's what I've been doing. Butif you guys have not yet I will
actually post it in thedescription. I do have a YouTube
channel. So Murph and I do go toa lot of places historical
places, and this some that we'vebeen trying to do for years. We
just never did it. Merle Murphbrought it up. He's like, Hey,
we should go to museum was theHeil History Museum. Yeah, so

(40:39):
for years

Murph (40:40):
I've never done I know he's never done that.

Zac Saleski (40:43):
We keep saying that for years. And we should do this
and I kind of got the ideas likeyou know what, no, I started
vlogging I'm like, we shouldjust go these historical places
document it and then put on onYouTube because people don't
really realize like Ohio has somuch history here on it just
it's this kind of a glimpse youknow, in in just major
historical points but there's somany like key things that kind

(41:06):
of happen here a lot of famouspeople to a lot of them we

Murph (41:09):
even even Miami 1802 Like we're one of the oldest like
we're up there one of the oldestschools in the nation like
literally the the East wasfounded and then Ohio was like
the next state to come after theEast was done like yeah, I'm

Zac Saleski (41:22):
crazy. We went to a I was a war fort and oh my gosh,
in Ohio here it was like far theonly remnant of some
evolutionary what Yeah, it'slike this big war for and
obviously a highway kind ofactually cut right through and
fortunately because of you know,Camaro China, the interstate

(41:42):
highway system, but they oncewere expansion, that's where
expansion of the highways go,

Murph (41:48):
Eisenhower. All right.

Zac Saleski (41:52):
But it was wild because the first time I went
there, and I think the secondtime won't Murph, but the first
time I went there, the basiclady was explaining to us like,
oh, yeah, just this is AmericanRevolutionary War four, it
basically stopped the Britishfrom coming and that's really
it. Oh, good. Right. You stoppedthem. Yeah, but they got through

(42:12):
them they will work with theIndians and just flush all the
all the other Americans out likereally just Just one. Just one
stop. That's it. Yeah. Yeah. Wedidn't have any supplies and
like, Okay, that's it. I just, Ijust an ass. I'm like, I feel
bad when like that. Pretty sure.
I

Murph (42:31):
said that too. I was like, pretty much this was just
known for Yeah, known for tryingto stand up against the British
they all got killed starvation.
And that's it.

Zac Saleski (42:39):
That's the best part about it with Murph,
though. He's like, Yeah, it tookthem mercilessly, like he likes
to read Oh, I'm more visual. Butmirth loves to like, just, you
know, absorb everything. So he'sreading away and after the whole
tour, he's like, so that's justit, right? It's like, the
realization like, Oh, okay.

Murph (42:59):
Fortunately, history is like that. You feel bad. Yeah,
people died and they had anagenda and they did their duty
but at the end of the day, andthen the whole glimpse of it, it
was just like, they literallyfought for I think it was that
was it to the British came down,fought them and then went back
up to Michigan, which just gotto like, they pretty much
defeated them. Just let themknow like, hey, we could defeat
you. And that was pretty much itthat like it was just like that

(43:20):
was really they didn't doanything after that, like,

Zac Saleski (43:22):
well, cuz they're trying to come to Ohio. Yeah,
get me to Americans and thenwork their way across
Pennsylvania, and try to coverlike a stronghold up there. But
they're like didn't work thereto New York. It was funny, but
no, it's we it's while we'vebeen to some

Murph (43:40):
crazy place great spots.
So I said we're about to runactually, that's a great part.
We've been doing this forever.
And I feel we're never going torun a places here in Ohio from
abandoned football fields tocolonial stuff to just
everything. It's crazy. We're alot of things here.

Zac Saleski (43:53):
The band and stuff is always fun. Yeah, it's hard
to find the band stuff now andtear down pretty quick. Yeah,
like Ohio is that right? Thatweird state where they are
expanding so much here it'severything's kind of been
knocked down and you know,building up new stuff, but I
feel like the getting betterwith using old spaces.

Murph (44:13):
I don't agree. They kind of renovate them. But yeah, I
agree now yay. Fun things.

Zac Saleski (44:19):
But they'll we Yeah, I'm sorry to go off a
tangent we get to historicaltangents and

Murph (44:24):
oh my god, it's an hour of us. That's how we do things.
Right. When I'm talking aboutSouth Korean Netflix shows to
Ohio History

Zac Saleski (44:40):
incredible are our minds just start linking up

Murph (44:43):
to as what happens we go on scripted.

Zac Saleski (44:46):
Check my home, baby. We'll figure our way back.

Murph (44:50):
We always do something so one of us keeps us on track. The
other one just kind of goes offon tangents.

Zac Saleski (44:55):
Yeah, that's that's one of the videos. One of the
complaints like guys like whiteMurph talks a lot. Yeah,

Murph (45:01):
I do get excited when I get Yeah. When I really
passionate about something. I'll

Unknown (45:04):
talk a lot about Canada man, right.

Murph (45:07):
And then ever since you said that now I'm just cautious
of what I'm talking and then youwant to podcast like now I gotta
talk all the time.

Zac Saleski (45:13):
This is VEVO glaze just Murph slight a little sugar
cube was Zack jeez. Oh God,Josh. But now it's a it's been
fun we, for you guys who don'tknow a whole lot about us. I
coach American football andMurph plays hockey because why

(45:35):
not? I coach? He does CoachYeah, Coach will do. We've been
there that coaching life butthey Yeah, we got interesting,
interesting. Athleticbackgrounds, nerves, families
kind of involved with NHL andmine doesn't.

Murph (45:55):
You're just like football and baseball.

Zac Saleski (45:56):
Yeah. I do a lot like Merced. I've been overseas
a number of times basic coachingAmerican football. It's one
reason why I kind of got intovlogging and things kind of
worked out that way. But thenthen Merce?

Unknown (46:12):
You know, family does hockey, hockey. That's right. I
don't even know what that saythat. That is just hockey. Yep.
Yes,

Murph (46:20):
I guess I guess to help the users understand. Yeah, my
father played and now coachesand the NHL. So that's
professional hockey. And mybrother. Younger brother plays
as well. So unfortunately, thethe good gene of hockey skips a
generation so I think I gotscared well skips a bloodline. I
don't know. I don't know how toexplain there's not generation I
guess because my brother is onlytwo years younger than us. But

Zac Saleski (46:42):
present for a middle child. That'd be like no.
What? We'll do this by myself.
Yeah, you guys. Yeah. It'susually like the fingers kid.

Murph (46:49):
Yeah, it's right now thanks. Yeah, maybe feel better.
Feel better. Yeah. Exact first,or

Zac Saleski (46:53):
like the the first kid or the third kid? Always?
Yes. Yeah.

Murph (46:56):
Those Yeah, I did not unfortunately, um, got the lazy
gene. Now. But unfortunately,yeah, centric. So no. Yeah, no,
he's he did that. Well, I liketo think it's probably because
he chose the position my dadactually played in so my dad
knew a lot of good advice,whereas I chose goaltending,
which is nothing he knew aboutso. But oh, no, it was

(47:17):
definitely you definitely cantell it's professionals compared
to average people like myself,like, the work ethic, the
dedication, all that stuff. Likejust like, No, I don't think I
don't think I was ever meant todo that. So

Unknown (47:28):
dad wouldn't be a goalkeeper like, okay.

Murph (47:31):
Oh, no, he loved it. He supported it. He used to be one
for a little while, but he justhad a lot of knowledge of it.
Because he didn't dedicate solike. So what's that? 1000 hours
or whatever book or somethingcame out about being
professionals. He had dedicate1000 hours to something or
something like that. Damn. Yeah.
So it's like, yeah,

Unknown (47:46):
my 3000. Right. So I'm slow.

Murph (47:51):
I can't remember what the whole thing was. But yeah,
basically, some guy did a study.
And he just talked to the CEOsand athletes and all that. And
he basically they did the math,and it was like, Yeah, you
basically have to spend crazyamount of time on something to
become good at it. So it's like,that's kind of how like,
unfortunately, fortunately, ourworlds working now we're like,
Yeah, I like having a generalknowledge of a lot of things.

(48:12):
But unfortunately, they want youto have specific knowledge of
something. And it's just kind oflike, just kind of stinks.

Zac Saleski (48:18):
That's, that's a lot of stuff that a lot of us
kind of go through in this newgeneration. Now, you got TG two
certifications, but, but also tothey're like, well, we want you
have specific knowledge here.
But we won't tell you thatthat's what we're looking for it

Unknown (48:32):
just correct. Well,

Murph (48:34):
it's got it also, it's also got a basically now it's
like they want, you have to becommitted to something and then
you'll find something thatmatches that. That's what they
want. They don't want, theydon't want people that are can
fit multiple pull multiplethings or kind of work around
things. They just want like aspecific, I'm going to hire this
person and they're going to getthe best result for all of this.

(48:55):
They don't kind of you know, itwas no more training, no more
that kind of stuff. They don'twant that anymore.

Zac Saleski (49:00):
See, that's been always been frustrating for me
because I I'm always a slowlearner and a lot of stuff.
Because I don't try to likemaster one little thing. I try
to master the whole picture. Sowhen I get it, it's like, bam.
It's crazy. So that's like, it'sweird, because I see a lot of
athletes now. Like, I got to putin, you know, 1000 hours or 1200

(49:22):
I had to put in like 2500 justto keep up and be like alright,
that's cool. I got to dowhatever. That's just how some
people work. Murph, and I kindalike the Murph more booksmart I
try I guess I

Murph (49:33):
don't know Yeah, kind of go either way. I have to work
pretty hard to but yeah,

Zac Saleski (49:39):
college days just like I'm upset. I haven't got
any sleep since like four Yeah,

Murph (49:45):
well, I didn't I didn't business didn't work out that's
why it was history says that'shonestly that's different.
That's different color. Yeah.
Like more of like okay, yeahmore of a factual create
opinions. I was never like,regurgitate crap. Not my kind of
thing. Oh, yeah. Now we're bothI think we're both kind of like
that. I don't care, like yousaid, just, it's interesting.
It's kind of like, I feel likethat was the great thing about

(50:07):
sports for a long time that weboth connected over was like, it
was the beauty of being able todo a lot of things. And
unfortunately, now, they havedegraded to, especially if like
football, it's like, you're goodat one thing, whereas just like,
you know, as a running back,it's like, you're either good at
catching or you're good atrunning. And that's what they
use you for. And it's just kindof like, No, I mean, there are
rare talents that can do all ofit, but it's like they don't

(50:30):
coach that anymore. Like even atthe young levels. Like I was
very big on what you're sayingwhen we coach like you coach
like everything else will comelater in life you coach or
athleticism you coach there yougive them the tools to at least
understand the game and startthe basics. But nowadays they
want they want kids that canplay and understand the game
like professionals like it'scrazy, crazy wild no more

(50:51):
creativity is wild

Zac Saleski (50:55):
how much games changed, but yeah, it's the
creativity is almost gonefootball and I'm sure hockey the
same way. It's it's sostreamlined to a couple of
systems. And that's got to bethe way that things work.
Because that's the way that thisnew generation does it because
they haven't been exposed to awhole lot else. So it's, it's
where I tell a lot of people infootball, they're like, Well,

(51:16):
I'm sure Kojak You were good.
I'm like, No, I wasn't. I didn'treally mentally get it. I worked
my ass off, but I didn'tmentally get it. Until maybe
college. That's when likeeverything did I good at a good
coach that made me understandlike, you don't have to do too
much. You just play yourposition. And as soon as you do
that, everything opens up andlike, and I'm like, oh,

(51:36):
whatever, you crazy. And thenhalfway through my first year at
Miami I'm like, oh, oh, well,damn. Right. This is what I've
been. I've been losing my mindover write not that hard.

Murph (51:50):
I think the the problem was we look at some sports
history like the 60s 70s and the80s were big and sports history
of creativity and trying newthings and beating up the norm
that it kind of create a lot ofthe modern things now and now
people are too afraid toreinvent zactly they just want
to stick with the bread andbutter this works it gets people
in the stands as pays the billsit's gonna stick with it it's

(52:12):
and then the horse parts who wasmean Zack agree with us, then
they've now put statisticsbehind it which I think
statistics have killed sports. Ireally do I there I think
there's a necessity for them.
But to live off of them likethese, like these new teams do
like a business. It just ruinsruins I found Fortunately, it's
great for the A's and it workedfor them but I think money Bill
killed everything. Because nowhockey is doing it footballs

(52:33):
doing it. They have all theseanalytics that those are just
sports that never really hadanalytics like that, like so the
players but best analytics arethe worst players because they
just know how to play secure tothe analytics. And it's just
it's it's to me it's it's bad.
It doesn't promote creativity,like some of the best minds some
of the best people analyticallyor the worst, but it's just it's

(52:55):
just that's how life is it'sfunny it is it's this

Zac Saleski (52:57):
epidemic now with with people who have basically
guys who are never athletic, whoare in suits who are trying to
make their way onto the onto thebench and try to coach their way
into you know, the positions arein but I it's it's an epidemic
of this stuff. And I used tolove football back in the
60s 70s because the West Coastused to be just for passing the

(53:21):
East Coast and and Central.
Yeah, like Central America usedto be all of all, or Heartland
or Midwest used to be all

Murph (53:28):
running the ball a little bit. They were paid guys like Oh
yeah, it's the everyone

Zac Saleski (53:32):
has, like every region had their own identity.
It was crazy. And now you justdon't see that. Really? No.
Really, it's kind of change andeveryone's doing the same stuff.
Yeah, that's the that's likeoverseas. Everyone's kind of do
the same thing.

Murph (53:43):
Yeah. Which you know, we both agree there's there's room
for analytics but it's justbecome unfortunately certain
sports a workhorse Yeah,

Zac Saleski (53:50):
but football No.
Baseball again.

Murph (53:53):
Yeah, Fortune eSports is becoming such a business that
yeah, it's they have to putthose numbers behind it to
explain it instead of justtrusting the people you've hired
to do their job. And if itdidn't work out, oh, well,
that's life you fail sometimes,like get rid of them get
somebody new in but now it'slike, they can use this stuff to
try and quantify winning, whichis to me just it's like, no,

(54:15):
this is a completely different.
It's it's kind of it's kind oflike warfare, sometimes it's
your day. And sometimes it isn'tlike there's just you can't
quantify that. Like, that'sjust, you know, what were your
guy? How'd you guys feel thatday? What are your top guys feel
like that day? What was thetraining? Like? Like, what was
the opponent doing? Like, it'sjust, it's just, it's just stuff
you'll never quantify in sports.
It's like, yeah, it's, it's,it's great that we're all

(54:37):
knowledgeable and that the worldis moving forward like this. But
sometimes, like we have too muchknowledge that we're now trying
to understand things that youjust can't understand. Like, you
just you just you'll never beable to predict it. Like, that's
crazy. It's crazy. It's

Zac Saleski (54:50):
not welcome.
Welcome to our life everywhere.
You guys get a little

Murph (54:53):
glimpse deep thoughts.

Unknown (54:56):
