The Volume Company delto championships.
Speaker 3 (01:57):
That should always be the expectation.
Speaker 2 (01:58):
All right, man, next you go. Welcome back to the
Richard Sherman Podcast. We have one of the best receivers
in the National Football League. I'm on Rock Saint Brown.
Appreciate you joining me, brother, that's sir.
Speaker 3 (02:11):
Appreciate you having me.
Speaker 2 (02:12):
Hey, you gotta you gotta explain to me how I feel.
I mean, hey, living living large in Detroit, just to
be there for the culture change. How was that?
Speaker 4 (02:24):
It's been a lot of fun, you know, getting here
when I got drafted, I didn't really know what to expect, being,
you know, going to Detroit. I never watched any Detroit games.
I probably knew like two players in the team when
I got drafted, and I mean I knew they were
historically a bad team. It's not I'm not gonna say
I was super excited to come to Detroit. I wasn't
(02:45):
probably like the last time I wanted to go to
when I was coming out of college. But being able
to see the growth of everyone that's been here with
Coach Campbell, Jared Panay, the guys that I came with,
almost all of us are still here, a lot of
the coaches, it's been awesome to see.
Speaker 2 (03:01):
Man.
Speaker 3 (03:03):
I'm just glad I was a part of it from
the start.
Speaker 4 (03:04):
You know, some guys that got here last year and
went to the NFC Championship, like Jamior Laport. That's all
I know that just be on the good team. But
I was there when we were three, thirteen and one
terrible and then kind of built it up.
Speaker 3 (03:14):
So it's been a lot of fun.
Speaker 2 (03:16):
Well, you got it from the bottom first off, Dad,
Like we always hear about the ball brothers and their
dad and all that stuff. But I want to talk
about Jo Pops because he had a vision. I respect
a man with a vision. Yeah, Like he named y'all
all after Egyptian gods, which I which I respect. I
got a lot of a ton of respect for that.
But it's the same brand. Because I've heard a lot
(03:37):
of rumors about this and I'd never get to ask you,
and I got you here, so I'm going to ask you.
How did the last name come about? Because I hear
it wasn't his last name, but he felt like this
is the right way to go.
Speaker 3 (03:47):
So his last name is Brown. So his name is
John Brown, just you know, regular regular Brown.
Speaker 4 (03:52):
And when I when e when he was first born,
he was in the you know, they were in the hospital,
he was about to be born. He got the first
took and everything, and he always wanted to change the
last name to either vom Brown or Saint Brown. He
didn't like Brown by itself. He said, it's a slave name.
Won't look it in the back of a jersey. So
it always had this vision of having, you know, having
a different last name. So he was in the you know,
(04:14):
before he was born. He's in the room, and he
decided with Saint and he put so he didn't scratch
ain down. He just added the st in front of
the brown. And it's been that ever since. So we
actually have a different last name than our dad. It's
usually it's kind of kind of different. But I'm glad
he did it because I feel like if my name
was just Am and Rob Brown, that don't sound right
to me.
Speaker 2 (04:33):
No, don't, don't. The names are clean. And just to
have that kind of vision and foresight as a pops,
like just I respect it, like how was it and
knowing that because I you know, I don't know a
ton about how your pops raised you and all that,
but I know he had to like put y'all through
it and and and and work you out and train
you and coach you. Did he did. He coach you
(04:54):
through Little League and Pop Warner.
Speaker 3 (04:55):
Yeah, he was there. He was with us through everything. Man.
Speaker 4 (04:58):
He every practice, whether it's basketball, soccer, football. He never
played really basketball, he never played soccer. But he was
going to make sure he was at all the practices
and if he didn't learn it or understand the game,
he was gonna watch it, see what the coach is saying,
pick it up, and then teach me.
Speaker 3 (05:13):
Once we get in the car and go home. So
that's the kind of dad he was.
Speaker 4 (05:16):
He was tough on us, tough love, definitely, But I
really appreciate it as a now being older, looking back
on it, I feel like it made it made me
auch much better player at a young age, and it
helped me understand the importance of hard work and discipline
at a young age. So as I got older and
I wasn't around him as much, it was easy for
me to implement it to my own self. I mean,
(05:37):
he didn't have to be around for me to understand
what I got to do to, you know, make something shake.
So he implemented that into us, the hardwork and discipline,
And man, I give all the credit to him to
me being here today.
Speaker 2 (05:49):
I appreciate it. I respect the hell out of that.
And I know, you know, coming out of SC, you
know you were highly tired of going into SC. You
had a great high school career, illustrious. How disappointing was
it go fourth round? Because I went fifth round, so
I went lower than you.
Speaker 3 (06:06):
It wasn't it wasn't the best. It wasn't the best experience.
Speaker 4 (06:08):
You probably you know exactly how I felt, just for
me because I feel like coming out for the draft,
I was they were saying, you know, you might go second,
third round.
Speaker 3 (06:19):
That's kind of where we have you slotted.
Speaker 4 (06:21):
Maybe one or two teams have be going forth, but
everyone else had the second or third round. So I
had everything set up day two with you know, a
bunch of family basically like a little draft party, and
that kind of got you know, it was it went
to ship.
Speaker 3 (06:34):
It was.
Speaker 4 (06:34):
It was terrible because you're just sitting there for a
long It's like we're sitting there for like four hours
because that second day is long, so we're there for
like four hours and everyone is waiting to hear my name.
Speaker 3 (06:43):
Carter's tension in the room.
Speaker 4 (06:45):
You can feel it, and I never heard my name called,
but you know, I feel like that'll happen for a reason.
I remember, you know, having to send everyone home telling
them thank you for showing up. I'm sorry it didn't
work out. And then the next day I showed up again.
It was less people, just my family and some few
other friends, and I heard my name card pretty early
that day. It was like twenty minutes of the draft,
(07:07):
so that was nice. But going to bed that day
was it was tough, but it was definitely not I'll never.
Speaker 2 (07:12):
Forget bro, I'll never forget it out. It was exactly
the same except my parents for some reason, we didn't
have any money or anything, and they maxed out their
credit cards to rent a room in Vegas. I told them,
I don't know when I'm getting drafted, Like it could
be second round, it could be second day, could be
third day. It's not gonna be first day. So it
was exactly the same. You gotta you know what I mean,
You can't. I can't express like the embarrassment you feel,
(07:35):
you know what I mean, even though it's something out
of your control, crazy, like you don't have anything, you
know what I mean, I don't. I can't do anything
but put on the tape that I already put on.
But you still feel like I let these people down,
even though in reality you didn't let them down at all.
But it put a fire in me that I don't
know if anything else could have put that in.
Speaker 4 (07:53):
Me right, And I think it definitely helped me as
a fire day for sure, I feel like that got me,
that got me going. I mean, I would say today,
I don't know if it's the same fire of you know,
me being drafted late that same you know motivation, But
I definitely I still have, you know, a list of
the receivers and I read it every day before practice.
Speaker 3 (08:13):
But for me now it's I'm chasing something else.
Speaker 4 (08:16):
I feel like as I get, you know, more removed
from the drafts, I'm thinking about other things.
Speaker 3 (08:21):
And the draft is so far away. But I'll never
forget tonight.
Speaker 2 (08:25):
No, and and and I mean you give me four
for one twenty, I forget a lot of face. So, uh,
talk to me about that. Because you've come a long way,
you know, and and very very incredible career. You know,
you've been incredibly productive, helped turn this whole organization around.
(08:46):
You talk about y'all getting into the NFC Championship. You
are a very huge integral part of that, along with
Jared Golf and Piney Seul, you know, and the pieces
you guys have. Tell me how good it felt to
write your name on that dotted line after all the who,
hard work and dedication you put in.
Speaker 3 (09:01):
Yeah, it was. It was an amazing feeling.
Speaker 4 (09:03):
I feel like, you know, not the end of the road,
definitely not the end of the road, but definitely a
step that I've always wanted to take and always had
in mind, you know, come in here as a rookie.
I wasn't like, you know, I want to sign this
big deal. My whole thing with I want to get
on the field. I want to make plays. Then once
I got on the field, I was like, I want
to have so many yards. And once I have those yards,
I was like, let's win some games. Now, let's go
try to get a Super Bowl. So for me, like
(09:24):
my my goals kind of evolved each and every year,
and you know, to get the deal done was I mean,
I can't think. There's some people I can think, you know,
my my age, and my family, and my people that
support me, my coaches, my teammates, the whole you.
Speaker 3 (09:38):
Know, organized lines, organization. It was.
Speaker 4 (09:41):
It was amazing, But like I said, it wasn't It
wasn't my goal coming into the league. Obviously, everyone wants
to get paid. That's why, you know, it's a lot
of people play the game. But it wasn't like, oh,
I want to get paid in four years. It was
let me see if I can make some plays. Once
I start doing that, let me do this. And it
kind of just worked out that way, and I was
actually signed my deal the day before the drift, so
it was like a full circle moment. I got dropped
(10:04):
almost three years ago before I signed a deal, So
it was pretty cool.
Speaker 2 (10:06):
And tell me how your conversations was with your brothers.
You know, I don't know how your relationship is with
your brothers, But my brother called me immediately. He was
sitting there on the stage with me. We sitting there
cheers and with my dad that night. You know, it
was just a really surreal moment because those are the
guys that you talk about it, which you dream about it,
whe you you grind through it with and to not
(10:28):
not that this is the peak of the mountain, but
just to to to kind of check another box off
the goals and accomplishments. How was that it was?
Speaker 3 (10:37):
It was it was a good feeling. I remember. And
I was in the car.
Speaker 4 (10:42):
This was like two days before the drift, so the
drivers in Detroit, and I was out in Detroit doing
some appearances and stuff that had already you know, committed
to months in event, so I was gonna be in
the troted the way and I was out there and
my agent called me. I was in the car going
somewhere to do an event whatever, and he goes, you know,
I think we gotta deal done, and so he runs
me through the deal I said, he said, I think
(11:03):
we should take this deal. I was like, let's do
it sounds good and so right after that I texted
my parents. I had a good child with my parents
and my two brothers. I said, the deal is done,
you know, four years and to the men, they were like,
my mom text me right away. She was in Germany
at the time, so the whole I think it was
like one am where she was at. But she answered
the phone. She texted right back. She actually called me,
(11:23):
but I was busy doing something else, so I andwered
real quick.
Speaker 3 (11:25):
I said hold on, and.
Speaker 4 (11:26):
She would just tell me how proud she was and
that she can't believe it. And then my dad texted
me that he's proud of me. My brother's texted me,
and then then it got leased some on Twitter, and
then everyone my phone just started blowing up and it
was over from then.
Speaker 2 (11:39):
Right right, right then, it's over. It's have you got
a chance to spend any time with your brother since
the deal happened or with your family? You know, obviously
that day was so special, but do you get a
chance to like, you guys, got any traditions, you guys
meet up once a year or do anything like that.
Speaker 3 (11:56):
Yes, So I actually live with my brother with Ocyrus.
Speaker 4 (11:59):
I live with him in LA, so you know, we
lived together there, and then the ecuademics lives about five
minutes from in La, so we're always together.
Speaker 3 (12:07):
We work out together, we do a lot of stuff together.
Speaker 4 (12:10):
And then my parents only live live in Orange County
so it's like our way from LA so that's not far.
Speaker 2 (12:15):
All.
Speaker 4 (12:16):
They come and visit, eat dinner with us like once
every two weeks, so we're together a lot. We actually
went to Germany. I would say that was maybe a celebration.
We all went to Germany this summer. We had a
camp out there, which was super fun. But now we
spent a lot of time together as a family kind
of you know, just being able to spend time together,
(12:36):
maybe not necessarily celebrate the contract, but just to be
together because you never know, you know, life is too
short to not spend time with your family.

(13:27):
talk about your Detroit Lions family and Ben Johnson being
a big part of a lot of the success you
guys had offensively, him coming back was a big boom
for you guys. How surprised were you that that he returned? Yeah,
I was.
Speaker 3 (13:42):
I was super surprised.
Speaker 4 (13:43):
I would say I was surprised the year before then
when he returned and so he returned what that was
the anti championship year. So last year when he returned,
I was like, damn, I can't came back on site.
Speaker 3 (13:54):
Let's do it.
Speaker 4 (13:54):
Let's running back. And then after last year, I have
my head said, I was like, oh, he's gone, Like already,
you know, I'll playing for to get a new offensive coordinator,
to learn new plays and I found out he was
staying again. I was like, oh my god, let's let's
keep it rolling. Man, just keep staying every year. He's
one of the he's one of the best. I think,
you know, he's I've only had two offensive corners in
(14:15):
this league. But to see the stuff that you know,
the plays that he designs, watching other teams play how
we do things. Granted we do have good players, but
he puts us in positions to win more times than not.
And man, his his work ethic, I think is unmatch
as a coach.
Speaker 2 (14:31):
Talk to me about Jamison Williams because he seems like
it's got a really cool story. You know, obviously he
was banged up coming in they still drafted him. You know,
he had some spark, some some big plays last year
in the NFC Championship. I remember him getting the reversed
early and scoring a touchdown. But this year, it just
seems like he's finally like showing the promise that he
(14:51):
showed in college. And you know, obviously as a number
one receiver yourself just got paid. It takes some of
the stress off of you, you know what I mean, take
somebody eat off you take some of the double teams,
some of the brackets off of you. Tell me about
how you've helped his development and what he's been able
to do the last couple of years.
Speaker 4 (15:08):
Yeah, Jim was in a beast man. You guys can
see it. Finally, I feel like it's been a couple
of years. Took a couple of years to find it
for him to get going. But you know, he's had
some some hiccups along the way with the injury. Like
you said, last year, you know, they got him for
Gamble and so he missed a few games. So this
is final the first year we had a full OTAs
full training camp under his belt. You know, no setbacks,
(15:29):
no injuries, and now he's able to really showcase what
he can really do. And he's man. He's fast as hell. Man,
he can run. I think teams. Teams know that going
into the game, but it's different when you see it
on tape and they're actually out there running. So you know,
we have plays for him up every week of going
deep and you know everyone knows that it's not a secret,
but you got to stop it.
Speaker 3 (15:48):
But he's been playing great for us.
Speaker 4 (15:49):
In the last two games, he had one hundred and
twenty something yards of the first game, uh, last last game.
The second drive I think was the first play we
threw a pick on the first play we get comeback.
First play out, we threw a bomb to Ja fifty yards,
So him opening up the you know, being able to
open up plays for guys like me under that, you know,
catch more balls underneath.
Speaker 3 (16:08):
It's super, you know, it's super. It's important, I.
Speaker 4 (16:12):
Think for an offense to have different levels like that.
You got a guy you can't account for everyone you
got me Jamo, Demo Laporta, Jamiir Khalie. We got so
many weapons. That's like if you want to, you know,
you want to double me, all right, good luck one
of thee with Jamo Laporta, whoever else you want to
put a safety over the top of help with Jamo,
there might be some more room underneath.
Speaker 3 (16:31):
So it's tough.
Speaker 4 (16:31):
It's tough to play us, and I think, you know,
us having a bunch of different you know, weapons and
gadgets like that on our team. It creates you know,
matchup nightmers for defenses.
Speaker 2 (16:41):
How was it when when when Jared was traded, Like
when that news hit, you know, I'm sure you did.
I don't know how much you knew about him before
he got to Detroit, But I mean he could play.
He could play, and I think I think, you know,
he got the short end the stick early on. He
didn't have a good head coach with the Rams. He
was in a tell division. And then he got a
good head coach with Sean and then they went to
(17:04):
the Super Bowl. Things didn't work out well, but he
played at a high level for a long time. So
what were you thinking about him? And what do you
think about him now as he's been your teammate and
helped you to a huge contract and helped this offense
be one of the top of the NFL.
Speaker 3 (17:17):
Yeah, he's one of I think he's one of the
best in the league of what he does. Uh.
Speaker 4 (17:21):
You know, I might be biased, but when I first
got to Detroit, you know, I knew he was a quarterback.
I knew he was traded obviously, I knew Stafford wasn't
there anymore. But I didn't really, you know, know too
much about him except for what I saw on TV.
I know he, you know, was a quarterback for the
Rams prior they went to the Super Bowl, lost the
pageot stuff like that, But I didn't know anything about
him as a human being, not too much of him
about to play as a player. I mean, like I said,
(17:42):
I saw the you know, saw the games on TV,
but it's kind of hard to know when you're actually,
you know, TV rest in person. So, you know, my
rookie year, Like I said, I wasn't, I wasn't really
worried about Jared. I was like, let me just see
what I can do to help the team win. If
he throws me a ball, you know, I got to
catch it. I got in the guard of place, and
then it kind of, as a year's gone gone on,
we built a kind of camerastry relationship. He's one of
(18:02):
the best dudes that I've been around. Great teammate, great leader.
I think his obviously everyone knows he's accurate and ornot,
but I think his ability to stay calm throughout games
is really what well to me as a player.
Speaker 3 (18:15):
I haven't seen too many players do.
Speaker 4 (18:16):
Like whether he's throwing a touchdown an interception, he's always
you know, for the most part, he is eating keel.
Speaker 3 (18:21):
He's level headed.
Speaker 4 (18:22):
I think that's important for a quarterback because you're making
a decisions out there, you know, every A lot of
the you know, pressure is on the quarterback to make
the right reads, getting the right protection, whatever it is,
and he's you know, he's looked so calm doing it.
So I really, you know, I commend him for that
because I feel like it calms us down as players
in the offer when you're in the huddle.
Speaker 3 (18:40):
When he's calm, shoot, everyone else's calm and can do
their jobs. So it's been.
Speaker 4 (18:43):
Awesome, you know, to to play for him. I'm excited
to play for him for the next four or five
years whatever it is.
Speaker 2 (18:49):
This this city of Detroit has been thirsting for success. Obviously.
I'm sure they've told you many times about the lack
of playoff success, the lack of playoff appearance is so
to have that such an amazing run last year all
the way to the NFC Championship, the furthest that Detroit
has been in a long time are ever I believe,
(19:10):
how was the city and how has it been since then?
Because I mean, from the outside looking in, it looks
like the energy is incredible, The fans are super behind you, guys.
The city is just woken up and really embraced this
team and elevated and they're showing up in big ways,
but how have you seen it from a player's perspective.
Speaker 4 (19:26):
The fans, man, I think they're the best. I think
the best in the world. Obviously, so I went to USC.
I've been in California my whole life. You know, there's
so much to do in California. I don't know what
the fans. The team's out winning, man, they're gonna go
to the beach, They're gonna go to Hollywood, They're gonna go,
you know, do something. Nos go to Santa Monica if
you're not. If you're winning, yeah, they might show up.
(19:47):
Still they might not. And Detroit they're showing up win loser,
draw there at every game. And you know, since my
rookie year, theyve been almost I mean it's been pacted
every game. But I can tell that it's only grown
since we started winning. The fans, man, the energy that
they bring is it's infectious. I feel like for us
as players home games, they're loud. I feel like we
(20:07):
might have won a lot of steams in the league.
Speaker 3 (20:09):
Now. I don't know.
Speaker 4 (20:10):
I know Chiefs, you know, Chiefs are loud. There's some
other loud ones. But I feel like we might be
up there. You got to ask the players I play
against us. I don't know, but I feel like, what
up there?
Speaker 3 (20:17):
Man?
Speaker 4 (20:18):
But now the fans of Detroit, Like I'll go out
to eat sometimes and people will come up to me
and be like, I just want to say thank you for,
you know, bringing life to the city, Like we just
want to thank you for what you guys have done.
And to me, it's like if I feel like in
La or in California, I would never get that, Like
there's so much to you. No fans coming up to
me talking about thank you for what you thank you
(20:39):
for what you're doing with the city. Like here, it's
like they live and breathe and die for football, and
so we're I'm glad that we're able to bring that
joy to these fans because they deserve it. They've stuck
with us for so long. But we just we want
to bring them more because they deserve it. So we
gotta we gotta keep going.
Speaker 2 (20:55):
No question, no question. I mean, you're gonna die your
hair back blue.
Speaker 3 (20:58):
I think I like that for the playoffs that I
think I might have to do it.
Speaker 2 (21:03):
He kind of my tradition. I love that. I love that. Well,
who in this league. You know, you you see some
very talented receivers, But who's the toughest corner out there?
Because you've got some pretty good ones in your division?
Ji yere Jalen, I think Byron is as pretty good corner.
But who who you think is the toughest corner that
you've seen in this football league.
Speaker 4 (21:24):
That's a good question, Tompest corner. A guy that I
really like is Patrick's Certain. He's one of my favorite booth.
I think he's you know, he got He's patient at
the line, can run, got size, is smart, can make
a play on the ball. I think he has you
know he has it. Also, he's He's definitely one of
(21:45):
my favorite dbs in.
Speaker 2 (21:47):
This I think I think so too. I think he's
the best. You know, I like Sauce and what he's done.
But Certain is just so complete. I mean, you look
at him press, you look at him off, you look
at him in and chaotic situations. He does not care.
He's following the best receiver, he's jogging around. He's no
matter what the route is, he's competitive. He's always tight
in his coverage. I mean, it's hard to find a
(22:09):
clip where you're like hmm, that was a rough rep.
H He's nice, he's sticky. Yeah. What about receivers? You know,
obviously you guys were in a competition and who's going
to be the highest page this year? And somehow the
receiver market is boomed in a way that I never saw.
I never saw it coming. I can't I can't imagine.
I ever thought the receiver market would be bigger than
(22:30):
the tackle market in this sport. But it is. It
is right now. I mean, y'all are at thirty five million,
and whatever Jamar gets, it pushes it higher. What what
do you think has led to that? Because it's been
I mean it's been over the last couple of years,
because it wasn't always this way.
Speaker 4 (22:45):
Yeah, I don't feel like you know, cap has gone up,
obviously that's big, but for us as players get it,
you know, more money be able to pay the players.
Speaker 3 (22:55):
But I think, you know, receivers is such a growing position.
Speaker 4 (22:58):
I think would become even more important as the years
have gone on.
Speaker 3 (23:02):
I think there's so much more that goes into the
just football.
Speaker 4 (23:04):
Obviously you've got football and us making plays, but you know,
you got jersey sales, You've got fantasy football, there's so
much that goes into receiver the start them and I
feel like, you know, one player gets played this, the
next guy's always gonna get a little more. The next
guy's gonna get a little more. So you just keep
upping and up and up, and then at some point
you're at what thirty five million now, so the next
(23:25):
guy might get thirty six, and then in two years
from now you might have thirty seven, thirty eight. And
I think there's so many good receivers in this league. Now,
if you ask me to name the top five, I
couldn't name. I can give you a top fifteen, top
twenty because I feel like each team has a, you
know one, a dominant receiver or to be soon dominant receiver.
So it's a passing league. It's the game is so offensive.
(23:47):
They want, you know offensive, score as many points as possible.
Speaker 3 (23:50):
So that's that's right. That's talking about the way the
game is going.
Speaker 4 (23:56):
You can't touch us, you can't grab us. They all
the rules up for us. We love, but we're not complaining.
But it's it's offense.
Speaker 2 (24:03):
We are all the time.
Speaker 3 (24:04):
We know you guys are.
Speaker 4 (24:06):
But it's it's it's awesome to see man, I'm glad
you guys are getting paid.
Speaker 3 (24:11):
Because they deserve it.
Speaker 2 (24:13):
Did that have any influence on you doing the Receiver documentary?
And have you watched it? Yeah?
Speaker 3 (24:17):
I watched it. No, and not really.
Speaker 4 (24:19):
They actually came up to me. This was, you know,
right before our first game LASTIK against the Chiefs. That's
if I wanted to do it. I said, yeah, I'm down.
I'm down to do it, just you know, let me
talk to coach Campbell and see, if you know, get
his permission first, because I know cameras around on the team.
I don't want to be distracted to my teammates. He said,
it's all good. You can do as long as you're
(24:40):
not distraction. And so they were super, super easy. They
only came to you know, full one practice a week,
Wednesday practice. They always miked up for every game and
outside of the facility, they probably recorded me like six
or seven times on things that were like things that
I do regularly, not like oh, we want you to
go do this. It's like, hey, I go good dinners
on Fridays. Okay, can we come be a final record that? Sure,
(25:01):
let's do it. So it was super easy, super you know,
non invasive, and I'm glad I did it because, you know,
looking back in ten years, I can look back on
it with my kids. Whoever show them that, and it
was it was a lot of fun. We went far
in the playoffs. It was a good season, so.
Speaker 2 (25:17):
It ended up working out beautifully. You got how many
kids you got? How many kids do I have? Mm
hmm zero? Okay, all right, that's it, tie day. Take
your time, take your time, keep practicing, right, keep practicing,
You'll be You'll get it one day. Oh well, I
know it's your off day, brother, and I know you know,
(25:38):
you could be anywhere in the world. I appreciate you
taking the time with me. A big fan of your game.
If you got any questions for me. You know, obviously
I played dB, so I'm here to complain about all
the rules and everything and say the game needs to
change back in my day. Kind of ordeal. I appreciate
it showing man. Thank you.
Speaker 3 (25:57):
I love
Speaker 4 (26:16):
The volume.
