(03:56):
The very first professional baseball team, the Cincinnati Red Stockings,
now known as the Cincinnati read but some respect on
Cincinnati's name. It's not just a place to get beat
up downtown. So yeah, that was unfortunate. Well, everything's unfortunate
(04:18):
these days. What's that?
Speaker 4 (04:22):
Well, I'm just what does it say about who came
up with the idea of the brilliant idea of putting
a runny chili on.
Speaker 2 (04:29):
We talked about that yesterday and that really upseund a
lot of people. David Vasse attacked white you know. David
vass called called it white trash, the chili white trash.
But I can't call Alex Friedland's mustache white trash. Well,
I just feel vas can attack a whole community, and
I can't attack one guy's dash.
Speaker 4 (04:47):
I feel like as somebody who met his wife at
a chili cookoff, you know, I feel like the idea
that you would pass that as chili and throw it
on some ramen noodles and say.
Speaker 2 (04:59):
Oh, that's our thing. It's like, just just cut the crap.
Speaker 4 (05:02):
But it is the thing, Like, no, it's something that's
some drunk came up with this something. But it's like
they have a whole thing about it. I get it,
Like the French dip. If I have this correct, the
French dip was they were looking around for.
Speaker 2 (05:16):
It was almost like they stumbled upon me and knocked
it into a thing of us hues. And his friend
was like, look, I don't have time for you to
make another one. Just give me that one. I mean,
this year that He came back the next day to
Philippe Matthieus and asked for another Thank you, Sarah, may
I have another? See that's a real story.
Speaker 4 (05:32):
This just sounds like some drunk who thought he grabbed
ragou and instead it was chilling and he put it
on his spaghetti noodles, and then they're like, oh, that's
just darthing. It's like no, like that was a mistake
that you've been trying to pedal and push for decades
now to make it quote unquote your thing, and it
just seems revolting.
Speaker 2 (05:51):
We do have live sound of you meeting your wife
at the chili cooko. Hey, uh, hey, what brings you here? So?
Which chili outfit are you with? That is your final hour.
Fun fact the great City of Cincinnati slinging mail from
(06:14):
a hot air balloon, which also doesn't seem like a
great night. That's awesome, we're talking about I have ever heard, Hey,
we got a we got a bunch of paper mail.
Speaker 4 (06:23):
What do you think we should do? Let's all carry
it under a giant flame in the sky to see
what happens in a basket.
Speaker 2 (06:31):
That's okay, it's easy to land living on the air
in Cincinnati. His word the word of the day. Today's
word of the day is waimo. Uh we we We
keep up with these weymos long before they burned them
down downtown. Uh not long ago. Uh. We keep up
(06:52):
with the waimo uh driverless car cabs around town. And
I got to text the other day from a guy
downtown who was doing like maintenance work or you know,
like roadwork, like the stuff where they close stuff down
all night and these guys work with their crews, and
he said, like they do it at night because there's
(07:13):
nobody on the roads. But these weaimos are doing hot laps.
There's nobody to pick up because it's downtown LA and
it represents death and despair and those zombie towers. But anyway,
the Weaimo autonomous over in Santa Monica, the autonomous driving
(07:34):
technology company, is facing backlash from and we've reported on
this Santa Monica residence because there's a big Weimo like
center where the cars go to be reprogrammed or reset
out or fuel up or whatever the hell they do,
and right by their charging depot. People have complained about
(07:54):
the noise and the impact of their quality of life
because the weaimos are just always there, open at each
other like ferbies, you know, and doing you know, the
beeping and all that when they back up. So here's
what it sounds like, can do each other. Yeah, it sounds,
you know, how like everybody lives in a neighborhood, right,
we all do generally, and unless you're off the grid,
(08:15):
and on trash day, it's you know, for a little
there's a little hustle and bustle for about twenty minutes
you on everybody street. It feels like, I think it's
like trash day every day down in Santa Monica.
Speaker 5 (08:27):
With these waymos lee come up with a fix to
solve well, waymo has seemingly come up with a fix
to solve its problems with the residents of Santa Monica.
Speaker 6 (08:37):
Yeah, the persistent backup beeping noise is now out of whisper.
Residence near a charging station off Broadway Boulevard have been
complaining for months about the noises made by the driverless
cars at the station, and especially the beeping during late
night hours. WEAMO now says they've modified their cars when
they are at the charging station. The noise has been
(08:58):
significantly reduced.
Speaker 2 (09:00):
Wait being what happens when they back over a hobo
now because they can't no kidding, I mean, there's there's
got to be a drop off to this.
Speaker 6 (09:09):
The charging station, the noise has been significantly reduced, the
beeping will still be at full volume out on the streets. However,
one resident tells us they're still being disturbed by the
noise as well as the constant flashing lights. So the
problems may not be all the way over.
Speaker 4 (09:32):
I mean, how obnoxious must that sound have ben that
you had people actually get this changed.
Speaker 2 (09:38):
Oh, there's been a big problem for well, think about it.
You're in Santa Monica. You're paying all this rent or
mortgage for beautiful beachrup front property which is infested by
crackheads and weirdos. Yep, And so you already got that problem,
and you know, Martin Sheen coming around and telling you
how you have to act in the beach community, and
(10:00):
then you get invaded by driverless cars. You know, it
feels like I'd want to go off the grid to
Santa Clarita.
Speaker 4 (10:09):
You can't can't even just go Inland a little bit
to father's office without a bum or a waimo attacking.
Speaker 2 (10:14):
Yeah, it just doesn't feel sad. You know. It's like, well,
the beach is your backyard. Well, there's two seventeen year
old crack hands having sex on my backyard.
Speaker 3 (10:23):
So it's the Waimo beeping or the fentanyl flop? Which
one do you want to get rid of?
Speaker 4 (10:28):
I mean, I don't know, but I think the beaping
just because the flop does show a level of athleticism
and stability.
Speaker 2 (10:36):
Well, it shows just a great spinal flexibility.
Speaker 4 (10:41):
Yeah, no doubt, Like there is something. It's almost like
a drug addict yoga. I love living in this society.
I love it.
Speaker 2 (10:50):
Here's my number. Number of the day, Pete.
Speaker 4 (10:55):
The number of the day is one thousand, seven hundred
and twenty.
Speaker 2 (11:00):
You know what that is.
Speaker 4 (11:02):
That's the feat on the largest tsunami ever recorded. Back
in nineteen fifty eight, on July ninth, in LaToya Bay,
off the coast of Alaska, there was a rock slide
which led to a wave at its peak of seventeen
hundred and twenty feet, the largest tsunami wave ever recorded.
(11:26):
The wave reached up to that match because above sea level,
it's surged up to the forested slope of the bay.
The extreme height was measured quote by the trim line
of destroyed vegetation on the hillside. So when people are
out here complaining about this tsunami wave, this devastating tsunami wave, well.
Speaker 2 (11:46):
I think the only complaint is that nothing happened, which
is good. But you know, we all got scared and
like expected to see something that's real fear.
Speaker 4 (11:55):
Seventeen hundred and twenty feet of wave with no mercy
off the coast of Alaska. It's what I'm talking about,
tsunami wave. Grow set in nuts and go back to
LaToya Bay in your time machine if you want to
show that you really want to serf something out there.
Speaker 2 (12:09):
I mean, it's real fear. But for how long before
you're just dead? What a ride by?
Speaker 4 (12:15):
One of the stories I heard on this wave back
in that I don't even know if this is true,
but one of the ways was that a dad and
his son were on were in a small boat in
the bay when the rock slide happened, and because of
where they were positioned, that they literally rode the entire
wave and they just remembered looking over and seeing all
(12:35):
of these trees below them.
Speaker 2 (12:37):
They ended up surviving.
Speaker 4 (12:39):
Again, this could be an entire you know, made up story,
but they ended up surviving. But you can find pictures
of the vegetation destroyed that shows that there was accurate
measuring there seventeen hundred foot of wave destroying things in
Alaska back in the day.
Speaker 2 (12:56):
We do have sound from that father son ride in
the waved.
Speaker 4 (13:01):
No Bama fans in Alaska too.
Speaker 2 (13:10):
All right, Katie, it's your time to shine. This is
the song of the day. All right. Song of the day,
very appropriate, I think is Russian Roulette by a Tsunami
Bomb Tsunami Bomb the band. Yeah, and the song's Russian Roulette.
(13:32):
Pretty cool, Katie. All right, you don't have to act
I call it. Yeah, I get. I mean all right,
there was a level of volatility there that I didn't deserve.
I feel like Jonas, Yeah, what is that about? Yeah? Yeah,
he makes fun of me when I pick my EMO songs.
This is fine. I like this. They're from California, Tsunami Bob. Yeah,
(13:54):
then what do they know about tsunamis they weren't in Alaska.
Formed the ninety eight lyon Ass Chicks on Kung Fu Records.
What'd you put your phone away? Shonas? What do you mean?
We'll be right back with more poker talk next. We've
(14:19):
made it even easier to take LA Sports with you
this summer.
Speaker 1 (14:23):
Make AM five to seventy or your favorite AM five
seventy LA Sports podcast a preset on the iHeartRadio app
using Apple car Play or Android Auto road Trip all
summer with LA Sports.
Speaker 2 (14:35):
Welcome back, it's Petrson Money. Jonas knocks us in from
Matt as Matt's traveling with the Chargers next couple days.
I think things are going pretty well. Yeah, I mean
you didn't fight with Essay. No, he was nice. You
know what's not good is if you're a pro athlete,
because you get robbed, like everybody gets robbed. Now you
(15:00):
got robbed, you know, like people are just getting robbed.
LA Police responded early this morning to an attempted breaking
at the Hollywood Hills home of Dodger pitcher Yoshinobu Yamamoto.
Did you hear about this? No, geez, No one was home.
Incident around five am. Private security officers were already at
the scene when the popo arrived at the house. What
(15:21):
a shock and it was the Bird Streets neighborhood of
the Hollywood Hills. According to the lapd. The burglars hopped
the back fence and tried to enter the house by
breaking the glass back door, and the suspects entered the house,
but they were nowhere to be found when the popo arrived.
(15:43):
So it's basically just a who's on a road trip
this week, that's who we target. Yeah, I'm taking Joe
Burrow's Cincinnati Bengal beanie and I'm gonna wear it when
we get pulled over. Here is Fox eleven's Stu Mundell,
the Star Cross lover himself, Stu Mundell well earlier in
the helicopter above Yamamoto's home. Hey, good morning everybody.
Speaker 7 (16:08):
We're taking a look at Yoshinobooz Yamamoto's the famous pitcher
for the Dodger's house. Now, apparently you're getting this information
through TMZ Sports saying that round five am this morning,
three people broke some windows and actually made entry into
the home. Now, by the time laped made their way
out here, there was a nine to one one call.
(16:28):
They said that the suspects had already fled, but they
have them on camera, so this is definitely was a
break in. Nothing was taken. That's what we understand right now,
the Dodger pitcher. Apparently they're in the Cincinnati area right
now doing their good work out there. But you can't
work at home after people look around. If there were
some broken windows, they've already been replaced. And I guess
(16:50):
this all happened right around five am this morning. Right now, though,
there are some people that are living in this house,
and apparently they were the ones that made a nine
to one one call also ran those burglars off. Whatever
that was going on, There no injuries to anybody. LAPD
definitely still investigating. So I'm stuck up at Skywawks over
(17:10):
the Hollywood Hills and there'll be more Good day LA.
Speaker 4 (17:13):
After the break, they sent Stu Mandel to go look
over the top of this guy's house that got broken into.
Speaker 2 (17:19):
There's no high speed chase it could come, I mean
obviously not. I mean if there was, he'd peel off
like Airwolf and go deal with it. Geez. When asked
how much his security costs that saved him from losing
a lot of property, Yamamoto said this, you'd thank you.
And we also asked Yamamoto if if these are the
(17:46):
same thieves that tried to Bob Yassi up Puig like
ten years. Nope, and how long are you going to
keep that? Security?
Speaker 3 (17:59):
Makes sense?
Speaker 2 (18:00):
Right now? What if the security was asked to spend
you know, twenty four to seven there, even when the
Dodgers are at home, you asked for too much.
Speaker 3 (18:15):
Good for Yoshi, by the way, smart enough to have
people at his house while he's gone.
Speaker 2 (18:19):
Just so these well they said that one thing said
there was nobody there, and Stu said there were people there.
Speaker 3 (18:24):
Right, there's conflicting reports if there was actually somebody there.
Speaker 2 (18:27):
But I'm gonna go a lot of people don't know
why the thieves left, but we did hear why from
Yamamoto by the way, Petros, and you know what he said,
he could smell their fear when he went back into
the house. You'll feel make it.
Speaker 4 (18:43):
Are we able to get their uh? Their opinion on
tim kats is promoting of zenschi any chance?
Speaker 1 (18:51):
Uh?
Speaker 2 (18:52):
Yeah, they liked it. They see it as kind of
a dance with a new culture condition you would dance
with us. Yeah, now, just over the hill and Encino
and Sino, Gilbert Arenas and five other defendants, including a
(19:18):
suspected high level member of an Israeli trans transnational organized
crime group, the Israeli Mob. Gilbert Arenas, Agent zero forty
three of Woodland Hills, is charged with one count of
conspiracy to operate an legal illegal gambling business and one
(19:39):
count of operating an illegal gambling business and one count
of making false statements to the Feds. UH also charging
the indictment and arrested today. It's been a hell of
a year for Arenas. His son got in that terrible accident.
His son's a big, big recruit going to usc probably
(20:00):
not going to play this year because he did. An
MCL also charged. These are some really good game poker
game friends, if you're gonna have them. Jonas Yea, Yevgenny
gershman Oh forty nine years old, Georia Geiora aka Geiora,
(20:23):
a Woodland Hills suspected organized crime figure from Israel. That's
the guy. The other guy, Jef Genny Torewski of Tarzana. Oh.
The other guy Alan Austria, which doesn't sound real. Fifty
two out of West Hills sounds like a porn star name.
The other guy Yarren Cohen aka YC. Young Buck twenty
(20:46):
seven out of Tarzana. Yev Gen Kratchun, also of Tarzana
at forty three. Each of these defendants is charged with
a kunt of conspiracy to operate an a legal gambling
business in one count of operating an illegal gambling business.
Their initial appearances and arraignment are scheduled for this afternoon
(21:07):
at the US District Court in La Now, I do
have a question for you, Petro. Have they had like
a crazy poker game going on? Yeah, it's a crazy
game of poker. Are you down with APC? And by
that I mean Arenas Poker Club? Because this table is sweet.
He's got it. It's like gold like lined with fake gold.
(21:29):
One of the guys out at Tarzana worked as a
chip runner, in which he tracked players wins and losses
and distributed poker chips to players and paid employees.
Speaker 4 (21:39):
Are you ever are you ever surprised at the number
of wealthy people who piss it all away on stuff
like this.
Speaker 2 (21:51):
I'm not surprised Gilbert Arenas is up to something a
little shady, I guess, but I mean, I know it's
different jurisdictions and different kinds of cops, and the Feds
are different than than the local cops. And I think
everybody has kind of a hard time discerning the difference
between federal law and local law. The truth is, there
(22:14):
really is no sanctuary from federal law. So if you're
breaking a federal law, the Feds will find you if
they want to. But isn't isn't Encino where like a
bunch of people are getting robbed and killed right now? Yeah,
and we're worried about poker games from twenty I mean,
it's totally different sets.
Speaker 3 (22:33):
This is not just a couple of couple of people
getting together and playing poker. This was a full on
armed security.
Speaker 2 (22:38):
This supposed a crazy game of la chefs.
Speaker 3 (22:41):
They had poker runners, they had women's I mean, they
had the whole thing going, Hey.
Speaker 4 (22:46):
Who's supposed to pick up Whiskey Pete's business. Somebody's got
to do it, Whiskey Pete and Buffalo Bill's sad.
Speaker 2 (22:54):
If convicted, the defendants would face a statutory maximum sentence
of five years in federal prison for each count. So
they are each charged with what Gil has three, So
that's fifteen years now. Of course, Agent zero is not
going to have a zero lawyer. He's gonna be okay.
But this is a US States Attorney thing. This is
(23:15):
a federal beef and the Feds don't like to mess around,
if you know what I'm saying. By the way, I
see some people commenting on it, like gambling shouldn't be illegal,
should be allowed to do it. It's like, all right, well,
that's like saying, hey, I should be allowed to drive
one twenty. Why am I getting a ticket?
Speaker 1 (23:32):
Now?
Speaker 2 (23:33):
Can Gil? Can Gill say like, hey, I got some
Native American you know, heritage. That's a good point. Can
you guys help me out here? I don't think the
land is Native land though, right, Like so he can't
claim that like his patch and Ensino, well, he could
argue it was taken from him, belongs to the tongue
for people? Are we are we like auditioning to be
(23:59):
his team? I feel like we're trying to find ways
out of this for Gil. I don't know. I don't know,
Like how does Gil run into the Israeli crime bos,
probably because he really likes poker, right, And how does
the Israeli crime boss go like, you know who? You
know who? That's not going to get me in trouble.
(24:20):
This x NBA idiot with a podcast. Let's let's use
his house. That won't attract attention. Hey, let's let's just
use the guy who pulled guns in a locker room
on a teammate. Yeah. I heard Derek Glassers in that
crew too. That is wild. Now, I think Derek Glasser
used to hang out with James Harden. Uh.
Speaker 4 (24:42):
By the way, it wasn't even around for that long?
Was it September twenty twenty one to July the next year?
Speaker 2 (24:47):
But four years?
Speaker 1 (24:49):
No?
Speaker 2 (24:49):
No, just over a year?
Speaker 3 (24:51):
Under a year?
Speaker 2 (24:51):
Right? Oh, so it only went for a year. Geez.
Now the years to bust them, that's a lot of investigation.
I hope they have a good case because they really
blew it against Diddy.
Speaker 3 (25:03):
If you're one of Gilbert Arenas's NBA buddies, are you
like freaking out right like now? Gosh, dar, I hope
I ain't go to one of those poker tournaments.
Speaker 2 (25:10):
Well, if you went, that's one thing. That's a whole
other thing to put it on, put on the event.
What if there's a video of Lebron back in the
day saying, ain't no poker party like a guil party,
wearing a maid's outfit right, holding his feather duster up. Okay,

Speaker 3 (28:11):
I logged into Fox Hawaii, the local affiliate, and on
the screen and they were like, looking for any ripple,
any ripple of water?
Speaker 2 (28:22):
What was that? That's not that's just a shadow. The
sun is setting on Hawaii. Maybe perhaps Timmy Chan at
Saint Louis High School a poola hawk.
Speaker 3 (28:36):
The live shots locally here at Ceo Beach, Huntington, up

They showed a clip from Ventura that was from two
years ago. They showed a wave collapsing in on Ventura
and we're watching it in the studio this morning, going, dude,
that was two years ago. That had nothing to do
with this at all.
Speaker 2 (28:58):
But they've got it. You know, that's the same old
you know, fear mongering garbage they push. Well, I love it, dude.
Anola Bay is underwater now and well at least the
parts of it that have always been underwater still underwater. Alright,
You're a dead guy. Birthday in the day, Jonas. Very
influential filmmaker Peter Bogdanovich would have been eighty five today,

a lot of Turner classic stuff, talking about old movies,
picking old movies, putting together lists of old movies. Bogdanovich

just terrible. He did study film, worked as a a
programmer at the Museum of Modern Art in New York,
became a film critic for Esquire and then The Saturdayay
(30:08):
Evening Post. So not exactly a lightweight, but it was
Roger Corman, the Pope of pop cinema, that got him started.
He also had a lifelong friendship with a lot of
really big time Hollywood people like Orson Wells, and he
had a big part in resurrecting the career of Orson Wells.
(30:30):
We all love Orson Wells around here. Jonas, I don't
know how you guys feel on two pros and a
cup of Joe in the morning.

Speaker 2 (30:40):
Well, you know, Hollywood Music. Yeah. He became a movie
making icon Jonas. In nineteen seventy one, his most regaled film,
The Last Picture Show, came out. He wrote the screenplay
with the novelist who wrote the novel, Larry mcmurcury, Small
Town Texas semi autobiographical and dark. He also did Texasville
(31:04):
in nineteen ninety, a sequel with a lot of the
same actors like Sybil Shepherd and Jeff Bridges, and that
one failed, but the original, The Last Picture Show won
a couple Oscars was nominated for like eight. You don't
know any of these movies, do you? Yeah? I do. Listen.
(31:24):
I'm reading up on this right now. I don't know
if you're gonna get to Paper Boon Depression era comedy
with Ryan and Tatum O'Neill. Tatum won an Oscar. She's
the youngest person to win one at that point. Mask

a kid who grew up using WD forty as face
(31:45):
wash River Phoenix's last movie This Thing called Love about Songwriters.
The cats meow about the film Mogul Dying on William
Randolph Hurst yacht shot in grease but made to look
(32:06):
like nineteen twenties Los Angeles. His last movie was She's
Funny That Way, a screwball comedy with Owen Wilson. He
worked with a lot of the same people at his height,
you know, in the seventies and early eighties, Burt Reynolds,
Ryan O'Neil, Ben Gazera. He dated Sybil Shepherd for eight years.
(32:31):
This gets weird. He dated He was with Dorothy Stratton,
who was the woman, the playboy playmate who's estranged husband
shot her with a shotgun and then himself. They made
a bunch of movies about that, and then Bogdanovitch turned
around and married her twenty year old sister. I mean
(32:54):
you want to keep your friends close, correct, Yeah, Well,
when you get com between the Moon and New York City,
what he's supposed to do? Like Mary Arrival, Peter Buckdanovitch,
he put her through school? What did she expect? Baby?
What's his connection to it? Chapter two? I'm seeing here
looking through the uh he does He's been involved in
movies for like half of a century. Damn, he's got
(33:16):
the resume. Yeah, very very strong. But I wasn't gonna
go through it all I went through the important parts
like mass you got your w and now you can
do the A live guy if you would.
Speaker 4 (33:26):
All right, well, petros are A live guy of the
day is none other than Elvis.
Speaker 2 (33:34):
I know what you're thinking, Well, how's that possible that
guy's dead. No, no, no, no no.
Speaker 4 (33:38):
We're talking about a guy who was named after Elvis.
That is Elvis Crespo.
Speaker 2 (33:43):
Born on this day.
Speaker 4 (33:46):
In nineteen seventy one, a Puerto Rican merengue singer who
was born in New York City. He was raised in
the city of Guyanable. I believe I got that correct,
but it's somewhere in Puerto Rico and he spent his
childhood in adolescent years there and he first gained fame
(34:09):
in the mid nineteen nineties when he joined Grupo Mania
in Puerto Rico. Eventually, he decided to go solo in
nineteen ninety eight, and his debut album, featuring this hit single, Suavamente,
became a huge hit and eventually helped him earn the
Best Male Tropical Salsa Album of the Year from Billboard magazine.
(34:31):
The album went platinum in the Venezuelan and Central American
markets and gold in Chile.
Speaker 2 (34:37):
It was released in ninety eight.
Speaker 4 (34:39):
It also earned a the Gold album sales of over
five hundred thousand copies in the first year which release
in the US, and part of the song's success reportedly
was its unexpected crossover appeal to English speaking listeners, particularly
in Miami and New York. He went on Elvis Crespo
did to release fourteen studio albums, but none have sniffed
(35:03):
the success of his first Suavamente. Now, this is where
things get a little dicey. I don't know what you
were up to in March of two thousand.
Speaker 2 (35:10):
And nine, some guilloritas type of stuff, did he? No, no,
no no.
Speaker 4 (35:14):
For all we know, I think he's he's clean on
that front. But in March of two thousand and nine
he married his manager in Puerto Rico. They divorced eventually
after fifteen years of marriage, but who cares about that
sad stuff. A week after his marriage, he was investigated
by Miami Dade Police and the FBI after he allegedly
(35:37):
performed a sex act and exposed himself in view of
other passengers aboard an airplane from Houston to Miami.
Speaker 2 (35:47):
Accorded to the report, a fifty two year old a
solo sex act A fifty two. Oh yeah.
Speaker 4 (35:54):
She told police she was sitting next to the singer
the hit song Swavamente. She said, about fifteen minutes after
the plane left Houston, Crespo covered himself with a blanket
and began to shuffle his own skin cards.
Speaker 2 (36:06):
Wow.
Speaker 4 (36:07):
He then exposed himself when he was interviewed upon arrival.
He was not arrested and no charges were filed because
he was asked by police at the airport about the
accusation and he reportedly said.
Speaker 2 (36:18):
Quote, I don't recall doing that. That's right, Elvis. So
happy live guy.
Speaker 4 (36:23):
Birthday to the one and only Elvis Crespo, who went
on from the success of Suavemente to self pleasing himself
on a flight a week after being married.
Speaker 2 (36:36):
So there's your live guy. The day Elvis Crespo. His
wife approved. You know, he's not another woman. She stayed
with him for a long time after that. Well, a
big thank you to Jonas Knox and everybody involved. As
