(00:21):

Speaker 2 (01:36):
What up sticks?

Speaker 3 (01:37):
What's the word? Man?

Speaker 1 (01:39):
You know, we're just I mean, there's you know, a
huge questions that have got to be answered, you know
on this show.

Speaker 3 (01:47):
Enormous questions.

Speaker 1 (01:49):
First of which, who took the step stool that was
underneath the Uh.

Speaker 3 (01:53):
That's just here for life here I put it there
two years ago.

Speaker 2 (01:56):
Just this weekend. What's the weekend?

Speaker 3 (01:57):
It was decided it looks like they were doing some
some work on there in there, so go figure what
what type of work it is. I don't know, but
there was some type of a covering under there. It's
no longer there. There was like a little wall there,
but it's not there, so I mean, I'm not upset
about it.

Speaker 4 (02:17):
So it's all goods, like a small crate size though, right, yes, okay,
I'm gonna keep my eyes peeled.

Speaker 3 (02:23):
Right, it's all good.

Speaker 1 (02:25):
Why there's just stuff that goes missing from the studio,
and it's just bizarre.

Speaker 3 (02:30):
I don't know where, like like my my mic cover
went missing. Remember your headphones with my head phones went missing?
Space heater, space heater. Then then it stopped working. It's like,
you know what, It's all good. We're just gonna take that. Okay,

(02:51):
it's out there too. Look it's out there and space
heater purgatory. I mean, listen, man, I've been here a
long time. There's some weird stuff that goes missing at
this place.

Speaker 1 (03:04):
I saw a guy walk out of here with a
couple of paper tower rolls. He went missing hitting the paper.
That was the same guy who.

Speaker 3 (03:11):
I had pizzas.

Speaker 2 (03:17):
I was.

Speaker 3 (03:18):
I was working in the studio the other studio years ago,
and somebody called on the hotline and I answered it
and it was a bill collector for one of the producers.

Speaker 2 (03:28):
God god that was.

Speaker 1 (03:32):
He tried every other number and somehow he had the
studio hotline and was looking for the guy because he
was he passed you on a bill. Uh so yeah,
there's there's just you know, weird stuff that happens that
I don't know.

Speaker 2 (03:46):
And I asked the guy about him, like, hey, got
a call.

Speaker 1 (03:49):
He said, oh yeah, just you know, ignore it. Well
I can't studio hotline. I could love to what do
you want to patch him through?

Speaker 3 (03:57):
That would have been awesome.

Speaker 1 (03:58):
Well, you know, from that over to this congratulations to Spain.

Speaker 3 (04:03):
Who who did we picked?

Speaker 2 (04:05):
I don't even know.

Speaker 1 (04:07):
Hey, I gave up when I thought I had Belgium
and it turned out I had Iraq.

Speaker 3 (04:11):
Oh wow.

Speaker 2 (04:12):
So that's when I sort of gave.

Speaker 1 (04:13):
Up my my thought on on who I had picked
and selected. But Spain gets it done, man, And you
could tell Spain was really really concerned that that was
going to end up going to PKS because they dominated
the entire match, couldn't get the first goal.

Speaker 2 (04:30):
Finally an extra time they're able to deliver.

Speaker 1 (04:34):
And you know, Argentine, I had a couple of shots
late MESSI had a couple of opportunities, but Argentina comes
up short. And congratulations to Spain on the on the
World Cup Championship in New Jersey. Viva Espagna. Now did
you see the There was footage of the Argentinian fans.

Speaker 3 (04:57):
Come on, well, what where did.

Speaker 2 (05:00):
You start with?

Speaker 1 (05:01):
Did you see what?

Speaker 3 (05:09):
Well?

Speaker 1 (05:10):
No, there was footage of by And I asked this
because you probably know that stadium.

Speaker 2 (05:13):
You don't met life pretty well.

Speaker 3 (05:15):
I've never been in Met life really.

Speaker 1 (05:17):
Okay, Well, so there was footage of these Argentinian fans
that were trying to cross the turnpike to get to
the stadium because they were they couldn't figure out how
to navigate that, and so it is a.

Speaker 3 (05:31):
Little interesting area to navigate it. And I'm sure the
traffic was ridiculous, had to have been. Oh and and
and they shut off roads and streets in New York
and New Jersey like nobody's business, bro, And don't care. Yep,

(05:54):
roads shut off. But this is the best way to
get to where we're going. Don't matter. But sutting this
road off is going to set us back at least
twenty another extra twenty minutes. And we're right here.

Speaker 1 (06:09):
No, matter what, it's Super Bowl every year. Every remember Phoenix.
What a pain in the ass it was to get
to the convention Center to Radio Row in Phoenix, and
we weren't that far from it. We shut everything down
around the outside, so you're trying to navigate through all
of it. Same thing in Miami and the Super Bowls
in Miami and there's these big events, they go into

(06:31):
panic mode and they start shutting down clear path roadways
to try and and then they'll send all the ride
shares over to one location. So if people are trying
to get it right out of there, it's a giant
pain in the ass.

Speaker 3 (06:43):
But if you're going to take a flop, though, take
a flop the way I Do took it yesterday when
the dude collided. Yeah, that was that was I mean,
that might be maybe the most memorable. I mean, the
goal was dope, you know, came off the homie, hited it,

(07:04):
hitted to the do Do kicked it in. It was nice.
I don't know their name, sorry, try to learn them.

Speaker 1 (07:11):
Probably at a Z at the end of the name,
just a guess or s maybe.

Speaker 3 (07:18):
Yeah, anyway, but that man, that might be one of
the most memorable highlights of the game getting that rid card.
I mean he got his money's worked for that red card.
Did you see the uh there was there's footage of
a because I mean, you know the ticket price. Did
you see and spectators no that were on looking at

(07:40):
taking place?

Speaker 2 (07:41):
There was a no no, no no.

Speaker 1 (07:44):
I actually this is there was a guy who was
a Mexico fan. He was wearing a Mexico jersey and
he was cheering for Spain at the game. So the
Argentinians around him were yelling at him, and so the
guy pulled out a red card on the fan.

Speaker 3 (08:01):
He reached into his pocket and pulled out a red
card and gave all red card. That's pretty cool.

Speaker 2 (08:08):
So that's pretty cool.

Speaker 1 (08:09):
It's overall, I mean, this was, you know, a pretty
successful event. I was also surprised. If I were to
say to you, who would who would be most likely
to get the World Cup Final, I'm kind of surprised.
It wasn't so far like I would have thought that
that would.

Speaker 2 (08:25):
Have been the direction they would have gone.

Speaker 1 (08:29):
You know, they obviously had the I mean one of
the two, right La or New York one of the two.

Speaker 2 (08:35):
Yeah, Miami got the third place in a big.

Speaker 3 (08:38):
Few months, a couple of months for New York City,
New Jersey. You got to say New York, New Jersey.
I mean, basketball is purely New York, but the New
York Giants do play in New Jersey. So it's just
kind of odd, still kind of odd. The only team

(08:58):
that plays in New York is the Bills, and that
ain't even New York. That's like somewhere else. What do
you mean it should just be called Buffalo Buffalo or
Buffalo Canada, something like that. That doesn't feel like New York. Why,
it just doesn't. It doesn't feel like New York.

Speaker 2 (09:16):
That's all.

Speaker 3 (09:17):
New York City and Buffalo are two different It's just
that's two different planets, not even the same plan.

Speaker 1 (09:25):
So, I mean, what's the biggest difference between the two?

Speaker 3 (09:31):
I don't, I mean, everything's different, Like what safe state Buffalo. Yeah,
it is the same state, but it just doesn't seem
like it should be.

Speaker 2 (09:41):
That's all. So you're saying it's a lot less.

Speaker 3 (09:44):
In Buffalo, a whole lot less, you know, And again
it's like it should be Canada. Like it's almost like
we were being greedy or we should have named it
something different, like New York was being greedy, like why
does this have to be a part of New York.

Speaker 1 (10:03):
So that's Canada's team then, yeah, so we're talking about
expanding internationally like we have we already have.

Speaker 2 (10:10):
A team in Canada basically with the Bills. I mean.

Speaker 3 (10:15):
The way they named these places right, like it's the
New York right, so it's like York right, like a
York town right when they were coming over here and
naming stuff like the New York States because everything was new,
you know what I mean, Like, yeah, at what point
did the new just it's just going to be New York.

(10:39):
It's not going to expire and bending you call it
Old York band now you know.

Speaker 1 (10:44):
I'm with you, man, the Old York City. Ben Mallard
and I were just talking about New Mexico. There's nothing
new about that place, old old.

Speaker 3 (10:51):
York Buffalo, Like, it's not new in a while, So
at what point does it go to old?

Speaker 2 (10:58):
Yeah, it's just get update things. I mean it's a
little lazy.

Speaker 1 (11:03):
It's like it's like the the UFC legend. BJ Penn
his nickname was the Prodigy. I mean he used to
be able to jump out of the pools man. Oh yeah, yeah, Yeah,
he had some rough moments though, three years of training,
uh Brazilian jiu jitsu and went over and won everything.

Speaker 2 (11:23):
Yeah, and nobody scored a point at him.

Speaker 3 (11:25):
Yeah, he was.

Speaker 1 (11:26):
He was unbelievable. Hawaiian legend. Bj Penn got caught up though. Yeah,
you know, listen, that happens sometimes sometimes you get lost
in the sayre you do. Yeah, Now did you get
lost in any sauce? What was the scenery like, because
we talked about, you know, just sort of these sights
and sound from England and Argentina and what that looked like.

Speaker 3 (11:46):
It felt like England and Argentina and Spain all at
once in Redondo Beach, still going hard. Oh, I parked
my car.

Speaker 2 (11:59):
Stepped up, stepped.

Speaker 3 (12:02):
Into a big ass puddle of vomiting. Didn't didn't know
it until I got out. No, it was really bad
and it was too late, and then I bent over
and my my top hat came off. No, luckily it
didn't fall and it didn't fall in into the vomit.

(12:23):
But it was it was, it was going it was
going bad out. What time of day was this right
before the game started, Right before the game, the morning time.
People had just Redondo beach was on fire. Bro good god,
the beaches, the beach cities were on fire. It was

(12:44):
pretty dope. We went down on to the beach because
Penn wanted to go surfing. She's a surfer. So we
went down to the beach a couple of times, more often,
two times more than what I would go, which we
went two times, two times more than I would want
to go. But but since it was her birthday, I
loaded and I do it right, Like I get the

(13:06):
big big boombox, the JBL party box, I load up
everything into this this, you know, a wagon, and we
go get it in man and this. We had a
good time. And we had a good time. But you
could tell that a lot of the people that were
there weren't from here. You know, there were a lot

(13:28):
of locals, but you could tell there were a lot
of people that were not from here. So, I mean,
you can assume my assumptions were especially by a couple
of them had I felt like it was a safe
assumption that they were probably from like somewhere from South
America or you know, from Spain.

Speaker 2 (13:49):
Now what would lead you to that? Ask? Okay, oh yeah.

Speaker 3 (13:56):
Oh man, Yeah, didn't have to look and stand and
didn't have to look forward, just look around.

Speaker 1 (14:03):
Yeah, real estate there. You know, if you're buying a property,
you got to have a big back porch. So man,
that makes sense.

Speaker 2 (14:11):
It lives up to.

Speaker 3 (14:14):
The discussions like there's something different, you know, like how
they tried to like make that at one point time
in history, they were trying to say, you know that
black guys could jump higher than white guys because they
had like this extra muscle in their back. You remember that. Oh,
it was like in like the nineties or something like that.

(14:36):
They were trying to say, like these scientists or these
four scientists, they were like, oh, they got an extra
muscle on their back a bit, can I get that implant?

Speaker 2 (14:45):
Well, let me just say this.

Speaker 3 (14:49):
If it was black people having an extra muscle in
their back to be able to jump higher, Spanish women
have an extra two muscles in their back to look
the way that they look. Yeah, and it couldn't be

(15:09):
one because it wouldn't be even it's even lead to
and it's crazy because you know the whole BBL thing.
You can tell if somebody went down the BBL trail
versus they just have a very nice, well shaped body,

(15:30):
homegrown you could tell, you can tell. And I don't
want to get into the details of it because it
might make me sound like I'm creepy or something, and
I'm not. I just have eyes that work, and my
brain is connected to my eyes and and and it
does a whole lot of analyzing. And when you're sitting

(15:50):
there and you know you're in the sun and you're
on the beach, let me ask you this, what are
you supposed to look at when you're sitting on a beach?
That that would be the better question. When you go
sit on the beach, like Lorena, you know, Patty Jonas,
when you go sit on the beach, what are you
supposed to look at? Because you can only look at

(16:11):
the water for I don't know. For me, when I
look at the water too long, for some reason, my
eyes get weird.

Speaker 2 (16:16):
Yeah, it's just all the same.

Speaker 3 (16:17):
So I have to start well because I try to
find like whales and sea life. And I love watching
the pelicans. I love watching the pelicans. It's my favorite bird.
But what else are you supposed to look at? So
you start scanning what's around you on the beach. I
see the kelp on the beach. You know, you see
you know the oil, you know, chunks on the beach

(16:40):
from from the oil that gets into the water. You
see all that, uh, and you see some ass.

Speaker 2 (16:46):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (16:46):
I mean it also depends on which beach you're going to.
There's certain beaches out here where you could see some
ass or you could see uh, you know, a drug addict.

Speaker 2 (16:54):
Dog walkers. No, no dogs on our beach.

Speaker 3 (16:57):
Oh.

Speaker 4 (16:57):
I also like the surfers. I don't know if you
guys have surfer my daughter service. I like watching the
surfers crash. I think that's fun, that's fair.

Speaker 3 (17:05):
But how do you when you go sit on the beach,
do you Because I would venture to say, even women
see other women.

Speaker 4 (17:11):
Oh no, she gosh had a nice bikini bod. Don't
get me right, but like, and you know, if you
see a Holy Moses, you know that's that's a good one.

Speaker 2 (17:20):
That's a good day. But I'm not looking for it,
you know.

Speaker 3 (17:24):
Yeah, I don't think you had to look where I
was sitting at There was no heaven. It was just
like it was like, oh, oh, now I looked at
I looked at my wife, and because I didn't want
to feel like I was like like creeping out, you know,
what I mean, like, I didn't want to feel like
a creeper. And when and I looked at her, she's like, no,

(17:47):
they're out here today. They were out and their boyfriends
all look the same. Every last one of them looked
kind of like the same, like a Ricky Martin or
like a every que and Glacius, like like literally like
they were a singer. Yeah, they all look like they
were a singer. It's like if you would have took
all of them and put them collectively together, it was

(18:09):
a singing.

Speaker 2 (18:10):
It's look, I told you.

Speaker 1 (18:11):
What the kitchen crew at my brother's restaurant and I
never figured it out. But every time I would walk
back there, they go all that Ricky Martin.

Speaker 2 (18:21):
All would have been good.

Speaker 3 (18:23):
It would have been good to go and they were whistling,
and it was like, I don't get it any Oh
that's why. Yeah, okay, that's got to be right. I
had to throw yourself in there. You got that little okay,
you got that little Crossoverlook.

Speaker 2 (18:36):
No, no, well if they only knew.

Speaker 1 (18:38):
Well, no, they were alluding to something else. They were
alluding to something else. Listen, you know, it's all about
it's all about respect. It's all about respect, you know,
especially especially on this new Frontier, so.

Speaker 3 (18:51):
Congratual like the new Frontier. I like the new Frontier,
but maybe not the new Frontier you're talking about. But
if you're going to take on that frontier that Jonas
is talk talking about, what you're going to want to
take the right pickup truck, and well it just happens
to be named the Nissan Frontier. That's right. It's built
to do the job without making a fuss. And that's
that Nissan Frontier, built for the work week and ready

(19:14):
for the load up and the tailgate that we were
just discussing on the weekends, the twenty twenty six Nissan Frontier.

(22:15):
You here it does in the background, Buddy.

Speaker 3 (22:27):
Donas Telemundo all the calls, Well, that is your tire

(22:48):

Somebody was talking so fast go somebot he was so
let's playing.

Speaker 1 (23:03):
A game, play.

Speaker 3 (23:05):
Playing again.

Speaker 2 (23:09):
Guys the best. Yeah, that's that's I was speaks bad.

(23:51):
Doesn't have what tell you? That's every single family gathering
that I've ever gone to.

Speaker 1 (23:57):
With the in laws. I don't know what they're saying.
But they're saying so fast. It's so fast.

Speaker 3 (24:04):
It is. It is the machine gun of languages. It's
like an oozy hold on, flow down please, you know.
It's like it's like Denzel at the end of training
day when the Russians getting why with mang tho, why
I go so fast? And then with.

Speaker 6 (24:33):
I'll get cornered at Kinsina And I'm like, no, idea,
it's a machine gun.

Speaker 2 (24:45):
You know, what's uh what I mean, I appreciate, I
appreciate you know, you.

Speaker 1 (24:52):
Know it's uh so boy, my wife is yelling at
my son. She does it in Spanish. It sounds just
like that, and he knows what she's saying. And I
finally told her the other day, like two days ago,
and I said to her, all, do you think he
knows what you're saying when that's happening. She goes yes,

(25:13):
and he does like he just somehow has picked up
on it to where he's can can decipher what is
being thrown at him because it's a lot like it
is the fastest language. But I wonder if they, if
you know, if they feel the same way about English,
like English, that's our I mean, our language is the
most difficult to learn is what they say. But that's

(25:35):
just because we have a lot of things that sound
the same, like live and laugh, you.

Speaker 3 (25:40):
Know, leaf, you know, and like like dear moops say
moose implural moops. Me say goots say goose imploral goops.

Speaker 2 (25:56):
Goots is what.

Speaker 3 (26:00):
It's geese. Yeah, anyway, we have the most difficult language
to learn. But I feel like Spanish is hard, man,
especially because you have to have talent. You have to
have vocal court talent to be able to speak Spanish properly.
I gave up on trying to learn it when I

(26:20):
realized I couldn't roll ards. I am unable to I
am unable to roll lenoir. Yeah I can't do it.

Speaker 2 (26:27):
I can do it. Yeah, And that is.

Speaker 3 (26:31):
What half of the battle, just being able to roll lenoir.

Speaker 2 (26:35):
I can do it. Yeah, me neither. So there you go.
I wasn't meant to speak Spanish. It wasn't neither.

Speaker 1 (26:41):
That's why I got it to go. So there is
another conversation that continues to take place. Okay, Lebron James, Uh,
he's really leaning into this man, Like this is just
full leaning into let's let's you know, steer people in

(27:02):
different directions Uh. He was at Fanatics Fest over the
weekend and made it a point, made it a point
to really emphasize the process in saying this, I want.

Speaker 2 (27:19):
I want to join the franchise to count your the
same you know bother myself.

Speaker 3 (27:24):
And that's why.

Speaker 2 (27:27):
Every days you trust the process, as he gave.

Speaker 1 (27:33):
You that, Ah, well done, Yeah, trust the process. Got
to get Sixers fans all hot and bothered thinking hey,
maybe it's us, get everybody thinking one direction or the other.
The guy's turned into a stripper, like it's really what's
happening here? And he's got the Sixers, he's got the warriors,
he's got the heat, he's got the calves, and he's

(27:54):
got the media sitting down and he's.

Speaker 2 (27:56):
Just grinding on everybody and nobody's getting lucky. At this point.

Speaker 1 (28:00):
It just wave your dollar bills, throw him onto the stage.
All of this is a giantees like it's and he's
and I get it. It's his last time and he's
going to milk it for all it's worth. But now
we're just going into wordplay, the whiteboard, breakdown, social media.

Speaker 2 (28:20):
Posts, it just this this whole thing.

Speaker 3 (28:24):
And I don't know if it's because he realizes that
this is the last time that he's going to be
able to do this, but he is milking this thing
for all it's worth. Man, it's probably the last time, right, Well,
I mean he probably knows where he's going, but you
got a little bit of time. He is masterful. I

(28:45):
said this. Some people can debate the goat conversation on
the basketball court, and there are a lot of people
that fall onto Lebron James wagon and crowning him. That
one thing. You can't argue. I don't even know that
it's even close. Jonas is Lebron James is the goat

(29:09):
on and off the court as an active basketball player.
No one has ever achieved what he has achieved on
and off the court at the same damn time. It's
not even close, meaning business wise, Jordan, multifacet it wise, No,
not even close. Really think about it, run it. What's

(29:30):
what's Jordan's resume as a player on the court. What
was he doing off the court? Well? The shoe brand, Okay,
I mean that's that's not That's that Michael Jordan did
a movie or two, a music video.

Speaker 2 (29:47):
My shoes blew up.

Speaker 3 (29:48):
That's fine, but that's that's still kind of somebody else's business.
Like in theory Nike blew up off of Michael Jordan,
and Michael Jordan ended up being a obviously a winner
of being a part of making the shoe the most
iconic shoe ever. That's one entity which is more than

(30:11):
enough with what it's generated. But you're talking about Lebron
James is still an active basketball player, playing at the
highest level and is a media mogul. He has a
agency company through through his own boy. He's got a
money management company through his own boy. He's got he's

(30:33):
got multiple he has multitudes of businesses that he and
his team and his brand has created and they're all successful.
He has been just as dynamic and just as as

(30:54):
successful and breaking down walls and creating more opportunity. As
it applies to looking at athletes as just more than
just brands that go out there and shoot a basketball
or dunk a basketball or run up and down the court.
Lebron James is a bona fide businessman. So when I

(31:15):
see him do the things that he does, I don't
just take it at the value of this is a
basketball player that's that's in the twilight of his career
and he's waiting to make the decision. There's always going
to be a rhyme and a reason and something connected

(31:36):
to why Lebron James is doing what he is doing.
And for that, I give the man his propers because
there's no one that even measures don't even come close
to what Lebron James has been able to build as
an enterprise and as a brand, both on and off

(31:57):
of the court.

Speaker 1 (31:58):
Yeah, his need to navigate and also live in the
social media era, which is a completely different universe.

Speaker 3 (32:07):
And ain't got banged up yet. As famous as he is,
he ain't got banged up by social media. Yeah, ain't
nobody popped out on him that that just ruins his
his brand, ruined his his career. Nobody's I mean even
popped out on on oning Kobe, you know what I mean,
there was a pop out.

Speaker 2 (32:25):
You know, there's yeah.

Speaker 1 (32:30):
Real deep Yeah, yeah, I mean, well, I mean it's
the truth. You hear you hear Michael Jordan and some
other athletes. I don't know if Jordan has said this,
but other athletes saying, you know, lucky I wasn't around
or social media wasn't around when I was playing, because
it just there's what we would have seen a whole
nother side of a lot other a just.

Speaker 3 (32:51):
It would have been the end of a lot of athletes.
It would have been the end of their careers. But
so it was a lot of the things that were
socially accepted or just ignored back then are one you're
undoing in these and and today's world. Yeah it's your undoing.

Speaker 2 (33:09):
Yeah you don't.

Speaker 3 (33:10):
You don't bounce back now, yeah, I mean you don't
bounce back.

Speaker 2 (33:13):
I mean look at Tiger Woods.

Speaker 5 (33:15):
I mean that.

Speaker 2 (33:17):
Wasn't even really like at at social media.

Speaker 3 (33:20):
That's not even that really, it's not that bad. It
was just being like a dirt ball, just being a perv.
But yeah, some of the things that I've heard and
seen take place where guys get suspended for take take
the week off, you got two weeks off, like get
out of here, Like you're suspended today. Today they're they're

(33:47):
going to jail. Career killers and their career is over
one and it's not even up for debate, Like that's
a it's an easy one. It's an east. And some
of the names, some of the names you'd be like Dan,
like like that's my favorite player, Like he was my

(34:10):
hero or something to that. Cats be messing up behind
the scenes. And you know who hasn't or at least
hasn't gotten out. It's Lebron James. No.

Speaker 2 (34:22):
I mean, listen, I would agree with that.

Speaker 1 (34:24):
I mean, you know, he's he's navigated some really difficult
waters through all of that. I just think that we're
winding down on this. Uh, he'll have a decision at
some point soon, but he can't help himself.

Speaker 3 (34:41):
But this is the most interesting part of it all.
Everybody's trying to set the stage. Oh, it better be
the right move, it better be or it's just going
to blow up. It's going to blow up. Hello, there's
not a decision he's going to make that's going to
be more entertaining than y'all waiting on him to make
the decision. I'm sorry, it's just not It's going to

(35:04):
be a much quicker conversation. It's going to change too.
What does it look like for that team and what
are they going to do? And how is it going
to work out? And then you move on from it.

Speaker 2 (35:14):
So enjoy it.

Speaker 3 (35:16):
You get an opportunity to speculate, complain about it, be
excited about it. Whatever it is that your feelings that
you have towards it. It's dragging out and this is
going to be the most interesting part of it. When
you come back and have the headline of who he
signed with, it will not even be remotely close to

(35:36):
as entertaining as what we're doing right now thinking about
and wondering where does he fit in.

Speaker 5 (35:44):
It's not.

Speaker 1 (38:49):
My My dad actually was a long distance runner in
high school and in college, and then I think I did.
I was under six, but I don't think I got
to five forty. And then you just find out, like
long distance running, just the wear and tear on your

(39:11):
on your joints, your feet, your knees like just it's rough,
but three minutes and forty two seconds it's flying wild. Yeah,
like your five forty is an impressive mile. He beat
that by two minutes. What are we talking about? So congratulations?

Speaker 2 (39:31):
What was yours?

Speaker 3 (39:32):
Loraina? Yeah?

Speaker 2 (39:33):

wouldn't worry about running anywhere other than over to the Audie.

Speaker 2 (39:48):
Now.

Speaker 1 (39:49):
I don't know if you also saw this. Tom Brady
and Logan Paul had a little bit of a dust
up at Fanatics Fess where they were john at each other.
Tom Brady smacked Logan Paul. And then yesterday at the
World Cup final between Argentina and Spain, Tom Brady and
Logan Paul were flipping each other off. And I told

(40:10):
you guys this back when the Flag football fiasco was happening.
This was all setting up to be a WWE match.
This is exactly where this was going, and it's all
sort of connected. So Tom Brady, Logan Paul, you know
the Flag Football League, WWE WrestleMania is going to be

(40:31):
in Saudi. You remember they initially were going to have
the flag football event in Saudi. They're gonna So all
of this stuff has been angling and been circling around
in the vicinity of the two and so this is
going to set up for a WrestleMania match. And I
just want to ask the question at some point, if
you're Tom Brady, why, well, yeah, exactly why in there?

Speaker 3 (40:55):
No, I don't want to see Tom Brady wrestle Logan Paul.

Speaker 2 (41:00):
Or anyone at that.

Speaker 3 (41:02):
I take that back. I would want to see him
wrestle the dude that Giselle left them for.

Speaker 2 (41:08):
Oh, that wouldn't go well.

Speaker 3 (41:09):
I would love to see that as well. But it's
going to be a real match. It's going to be
a real match.
