It is faarcee. That's what it says. Right there. 29 00:01:16,480 --> 00:01:18,559 Speaker 2: They do a beautiful job with the labels right there, 30 00:01:18,760 --> 00:01:22,520 Speaker 2: this Connecticut Rappers and Ecuadorian Connecticut, which. 31 00:01:22,319 --> 00:01:23,839 Speaker 1: Is very very light. 32 00:01:24,200 --> 00:01:27,880 Speaker 2: It is very almost te in its coloring, uh, but 33 00:01:28,080 --> 00:01:30,640 Speaker 2: still smooth, a little bit of oil in there with 34 00:01:30,760 --> 00:01:34,280 Speaker 2: that purple and gold and red band and they do 35 00:01:34,319 --> 00:01:37,080 Speaker 2: a double band on here.

Is that farce? 37 00:01:39,920 --> 00:01:42,280 Speaker 2: Or is that farj as you brought up and you 38 00:01:42,520 --> 00:01:44,360 Speaker 2: brought it up as a joke or is it farce? 39 00:01:44,880 --> 00:01:46,400 Speaker 2: And all of a sudden I have to say to myself, 40 00:01:46,480 --> 00:01:48,920 Speaker 2: I don't know. I always thought it was farce. 41 00:01:49,160 --> 00:01:53,080 Speaker 1: I'm glad I completely ruined your mojo. Going into the 42 00:01:53,120 --> 00:01:56,760 Speaker 1: show thirty seconds before air, I was like, is it 43 00:01:56,800 --> 00:01:57,560 Speaker 1: is it farj. 44 00:01:58,080 --> 00:02:00,520 Speaker 2: He's a he's a help and a treat. By the way, 45 00:02:00,960 --> 00:02:04,120 Speaker 2: I don't know. I know that I haven't had a 46 00:02:04,120 --> 00:02:07,400 Speaker 2: good Connecticut in a while. I go through these these 47 00:02:07,560 --> 00:02:12,560 Speaker 2: fits of finding connecticuts and then finding nothing. I for 48 00:02:12,639 --> 00:02:14,639 Speaker 2: how I smoke and how my day works. My first 49 00:02:14,680 --> 00:02:19,200 Speaker 2: cigar doesn't happen until about noon, and so that's not 50 00:02:19,280 --> 00:02:22,440 Speaker 2: too late for Connecticut. It's actually never too late for Connecticut. 51 00:02:22,480 --> 00:02:23,959 Speaker 2: All of those things like, oh, you gotta have a 52 00:02:23,960 --> 00:02:25,440 Speaker 2: Connecticut in the morning, you can't have an inning. 53 00:02:25,440 --> 00:02:26,840 Speaker 1: It's all myth. So what do you like? 54 00:02:27,000 --> 00:02:29,720 Speaker 2: You smoke that, but it would be nice to be 55 00:02:29,760 --> 00:02:32,880 Speaker 2: able to engage with that and start the day with that. 56 00:02:33,240 --> 00:02:35,120 Speaker 2: And I go through these fits where I'm like, this 57 00:02:35,160 --> 00:02:37,400 Speaker 2: Connecticut is great, this Connecticut is wonderful. Then I run 58 00:02:37,440 --> 00:02:39,680 Speaker 2: out and then I forget to order or I forget 59 00:02:39,680 --> 00:02:41,760 Speaker 2: to go buy, and the next thing, you know, I'm like. 60 00:02:41,840 --> 00:02:43,720 Speaker 1: I need a Connecticut and I don't know what to get. 61 00:02:44,440 --> 00:02:48,400 Speaker 2: So I'm hoping that this could fill a place, an 62 00:02:48,440 --> 00:02:49,880 Speaker 2: empty void in my soul. 63 00:02:49,919 --> 00:02:54,359 Speaker 1: Perhaps really we're going that deep. We're worried about the 64 00:02:54,440 --> 00:02:55,480 Speaker 1: voids in your soul. 65 00:02:55,960 --> 00:02:58,079 Speaker 2: Some of us really care about cigars, and some of 66 00:02:58,160 --> 00:02:59,239 Speaker 2: us are named Fingers Maloy. 67 00:03:00,240 --> 00:03:01,880 Speaker 1: That's that's true, Fingers. 68 00:03:01,919 --> 00:03:04,600 Speaker 2: You started smoking this thing right here now. It's it's 69 00:03:04,960 --> 00:03:08,480 Speaker 2: Dominican in its origin, right, So it's the it's the 70 00:03:08,520 --> 00:03:13,000 Speaker 2: Ecuadorian Connecticut shade wrapper and it is a Dominican and 71 00:03:13,240 --> 00:03:14,800 Speaker 2: Nicaraguin and the binder and filler. 72 00:03:15,440 --> 00:03:17,640 Speaker 1: Where are you as you've started smoking the cigar? Well, 73 00:03:17,680 --> 00:03:19,359 Speaker 1: I have a question for you before we get into 74 00:03:19,400 --> 00:03:23,120 Speaker 1: the flavor profile. Do you find it a tad bit 75 00:03:23,320 --> 00:03:25,960 Speaker 1: lighter than you were expecting in the hand? 76 00:03:26,160 --> 00:03:29,120 Speaker 2: So I love that they called this a supertro six 77 00:03:29,360 --> 00:03:32,799 Speaker 2: by fifty six or I should say six by fifty six, 78 00:03:33,160 --> 00:03:36,400 Speaker 2: making it super toros, something like a fifty two ring gait. 79 00:03:38,400 --> 00:03:43,480 Speaker 2: Maybe maybe it's a little bit lighter. I don't think 80 00:03:43,560 --> 00:03:45,160 Speaker 2: it's it's fly off the handle. I don't think it's 81 00:03:45,160 --> 00:03:47,520 Speaker 2: a wiffleball bat. No, as we call something that's way 82 00:03:47,520 --> 00:03:50,960 Speaker 2: too light a whiffleball bat. But this is not beefy. 83 00:03:51,120 --> 00:03:55,320 Speaker 2: This is is not necessarily a hefty smoke. No, that 84 00:03:55,440 --> 00:03:57,720 Speaker 2: your argument that that would be my argument. But I 85 00:03:57,840 --> 00:03:59,680 Speaker 2: just did three pull ups before I got here, so 86 00:03:59,720 --> 00:04:01,200 Speaker 2: maybe that has something to do with it. 87 00:04:01,280 --> 00:04:03,440 Speaker 1: I often say you have the body of a young 88 00:04:03,600 --> 00:04:07,040 Speaker 1: young gym fix that is. That is very true. That's 89 00:04:07,040 --> 00:04:11,600 Speaker 1: why on X they call me a fitness influencer. Having 90 00:04:11,640 --> 00:04:12,080 Speaker 1: said that. 91 00:04:13,400 --> 00:04:17,279 Speaker 2: Uh, you call you influencer X does not call you 92 00:04:17,279 --> 00:04:18,440 Speaker 2: a fitness influencer. 93 00:04:18,520 --> 00:04:21,960 Speaker 1: It's on X. Oh, then it must be real. It's 94 00:04:22,000 --> 00:04:23,680 Speaker 1: on the internet, so it has to be true. Where 95 00:04:23,680 --> 00:04:26,719 Speaker 1: are you with this? So right off the bat, I 96 00:04:26,760 --> 00:04:29,359 Speaker 1: noticed for me anyway, and I actually cut it a 97 00:04:29,360 --> 00:04:32,839 Speaker 1: little deeper than I normally would. The draws a little tight, 98 00:04:33,480 --> 00:04:36,880 Speaker 1: But that doesn't necessarily mean that it's they did anything wrong. 99 00:04:37,839 --> 00:04:43,880 Speaker 1: I'm getting bits of like cedar, maybe some hay. I'm 100 00:04:43,880 --> 00:04:47,160 Speaker 1: not getting really any sweetness at this point. But I 101 00:04:47,279 --> 00:04:50,360 Speaker 1: literally started smoking this about four minutes ago. 102 00:04:50,640 --> 00:04:53,760 Speaker 2: So what's interesting is I thought I did a shallow 103 00:04:53,880 --> 00:04:56,560 Speaker 2: cut and I came straight across. 104 00:04:57,320 --> 00:04:58,760 Speaker 1: Let me see where are you? 105 00:04:58,960 --> 00:05:02,320 Speaker 2: Yeah you did too. Yeah, that's a very shallow cap. 106 00:05:03,279 --> 00:05:04,919 Speaker 2: So the cap is where you cut from and the 107 00:05:04,920 --> 00:05:07,360 Speaker 2: foot is where you light from. And so the cap 108 00:05:07,480 --> 00:05:09,600 Speaker 2: end it usually has a little bit of build up 109 00:05:09,600 --> 00:05:11,720 Speaker 2: to it, mounding up and rounding out. Now, you could 110 00:05:11,760 --> 00:05:15,000 Speaker 2: have a torpedo or something else, a figurado that has 111 00:05:15,040 --> 00:05:18,040 Speaker 2: a different, of course, point to it. But this is 112 00:05:18,080 --> 00:05:21,839 Speaker 2: a a you would is nothing special, It's it's exactly 113 00:05:21,839 --> 00:05:22,679 Speaker 2: what you would expect. 114 00:05:23,560 --> 00:05:27,200 Speaker 1: Yeah, that cuts straight across and there is a unique 115 00:05:27,200 --> 00:05:30,880 Speaker 1: spice on that. Oh, there is. I'm not getting anything 116 00:05:30,960 --> 00:05:31,320 Speaker 1: like that. 117 00:05:31,920 --> 00:05:34,719 Speaker 2: I think the spice is coming food wood. Okay, I 118 00:05:34,760 --> 00:05:38,880 Speaker 2: think that's what that is. There's also are you getting 119 00:05:38,920 --> 00:05:40,560 Speaker 2: an underneath chocolate there? 120 00:05:41,000 --> 00:05:46,200 Speaker 1: No, oh no, I'm not. It's it's it's. 121 00:05:46,080 --> 00:05:50,240 Speaker 2: Either it's either fantastic or I'm having a stroke h 122 00:05:50,480 --> 00:05:54,479 Speaker 2: one one or the other. I'll tell you it's not. 123 00:05:54,640 --> 00:05:56,839 Speaker 2: It's not playing like a like a connecticut. It's not 124 00:05:56,880 --> 00:06:01,160 Speaker 2: playing overly creamy or or anything like that. It's it's 125 00:06:01,240 --> 00:06:03,080 Speaker 2: it's you know, you would expect maybe a little bit 126 00:06:03,080 --> 00:06:05,960 Speaker 2: of wood, depending on on the connecticut. This is, this 127 00:06:06,040 --> 00:06:09,799 Speaker 2: is hitting me with a rich, a rich deep wood 128 00:06:09,800 --> 00:06:12,920 Speaker 2: spice almost, and it's hitting me with a little bit 129 00:06:12,960 --> 00:06:16,120 Speaker 2: of a kind of a cocoa or a bittersweet chocolate. 130 00:06:16,640 --> 00:06:18,960 Speaker 1: That's maybe it's a coffee. Mean, that's nice for me. 131 00:06:19,160 --> 00:06:22,599 Speaker 1: At this point. It's just that that wood and maybe 132 00:06:22,640 --> 00:06:28,400 Speaker 1: a hay combo. And I will say it's very mild. Uh, 133 00:06:28,480 --> 00:06:31,360 Speaker 1: But we just lit this. I I had to cut 134 00:06:31,360 --> 00:06:34,920 Speaker 1: this twice, uh because I you know, I was worried 135 00:06:34,920 --> 00:06:37,880 Speaker 1: about that draw. And now by the cap, I'm doing 136 00:06:37,920 --> 00:06:40,599 Speaker 1: the old pension roll a little t. 137 00:06:40,760 --> 00:06:43,560 Speaker 2: I also have a stick there, Okay, that if you 138 00:06:43,600 --> 00:06:46,679 Speaker 2: if you want to poke it. So we actually sell these, 139 00:06:46,960 --> 00:06:48,760 Speaker 2: uh we had them made for us and so some 140 00:06:48,800 --> 00:06:51,720 Speaker 2: people like to uh put it in to the to 141 00:06:51,760 --> 00:06:53,520 Speaker 2: the number their cigars so they can really smoke the 142 00:06:53,560 --> 00:06:55,799 Speaker 2: last little bit seed or you're not burning your fingers. 143 00:06:56,000 --> 00:06:58,560 Speaker 2: And then you can also use it to create some gaps, 144 00:06:58,600 --> 00:07:02,600 Speaker 2: maybe create a little airflow in the cap end to 145 00:07:03,320 --> 00:07:06,080 Speaker 2: get some get a better draw. This is the Room 146 00:07:06,279 --> 00:07:08,800 Speaker 2: one on one farce or is it farte? This is 147 00:07:08,800 --> 00:07:12,840 Speaker 2: the Connecticut Super Toro. Now I would ask ringers onoy 148 00:07:13,000 --> 00:07:15,160 Speaker 2: is this in your humid r for twelve dollars and 149 00:07:15,200 --> 00:07:15,960 Speaker 2: forty cents a stick? 150 00:07:17,200 --> 00:07:18,360 Speaker 1: We don't know yet, we don't know. 151 00:07:19,120 --> 00:07:24,400 Speaker 2: That is a very very unique flavor. This is also 152 00:07:24,440 --> 00:07:25,840 Speaker 2: a six month age cigar. 153 00:07:26,000 --> 00:07:26,720 Speaker 1: Pretty interesting. 154 00:07:27,120 --> 00:07:29,640 Speaker 2: I would like to know more about that if that 155 00:07:29,800 --> 00:07:33,760 Speaker 2: is something separate that's done and how that aging is done. 156 00:07:33,960 --> 00:07:35,360 Speaker 1: This is not a new smoke. 157 00:07:36,560 --> 00:07:40,000 Speaker 2: This is a cigar that came out for the then 158 00:07:40,320 --> 00:07:44,160 Speaker 2: ICPCR which is now the PCA the Cigar Show for 159 00:07:44,280 --> 00:07:47,920 Speaker 2: a wholesalers and retailers, I should say, in twenty eighteen. 160 00:07:49,240 --> 00:07:52,880 Speaker 1: So this has got eight years of pedigree to it. 161 00:07:53,440 --> 00:07:56,880 Speaker 1: And I'm telling you that has a weird as. 162 00:07:56,760 --> 00:08:01,880 Speaker 2: A weird unique robust for a Connecticut flavor. 163 00:08:02,160 --> 00:08:04,080 Speaker 1: And I do not think this is mild. This is 164 00:08:04,120 --> 00:08:07,640 Speaker 1: coming in. This is clocking medium. Wow.

I hesitate to say this because it's a total 199 00:10:07,200 --> 00:10:11,199 Speaker 1: Grandpa Simpson moment, but going to totally sound like an 200 00:10:11,200 --> 00:10:15,040 Speaker 1: old here, but the kids love to thrift. And because 201 00:10:15,080 --> 00:10:17,960 Speaker 1: the kids love to thrift, Goodwill is one of the 202 00:10:18,000 --> 00:10:21,840 Speaker 1: main spots that they thrift at. And I you know, 203 00:10:21,880 --> 00:10:25,480 Speaker 1: we've got the story here about you know it being 204 00:10:25,520 --> 00:10:27,679 Speaker 1: it's the first of the year. And you know how 205 00:10:27,720 --> 00:10:30,200 Speaker 1: people have New Year's resolutions, and one of them is, hey, 206 00:10:30,200 --> 00:10:32,760 Speaker 1: I got to get organized and clean stuff out. And 207 00:10:33,200 --> 00:10:36,560 Speaker 1: the things that people are willing and wanting to donate, 208 00:10:37,040 --> 00:10:39,880 Speaker 1: I can't believe some of the things that Goodwill says, Hey, 209 00:10:40,040 --> 00:10:43,160 Speaker 1: can you do us as solid and not donate this? 210 00:10:44,640 --> 00:10:47,000 Speaker 2: So you've got this list. It's over at the US Sun, 211 00:10:47,440 --> 00:10:54,040 Speaker 2: the dash sun dot com. Baby furniture, cribs, strollers, highchairs, 212 00:10:54,240 --> 00:10:59,400 Speaker 2: car seats, chaining tables, baby walkers, bassinets cannot be donated now. 213 00:11:00,240 --> 00:11:03,080 Speaker 2: Car seats I get, and I don't know if I 214 00:11:03,200 --> 00:11:07,800 Speaker 2: believe it. There's a whole theory that a car seat donated, 215 00:11:07,800 --> 00:11:09,480 Speaker 2: you don't know what happened to it. You don't know 216 00:11:09,480 --> 00:11:11,120 Speaker 2: if it had been in an accident, you don't know 217 00:11:11,120 --> 00:11:14,120 Speaker 2: if it still its structural integrity. And so therefore they 218 00:11:14,160 --> 00:11:18,480 Speaker 2: can't sell it because they've got a liability issue if 219 00:11:18,520 --> 00:11:18,960 Speaker 2: they do. 220 00:11:19,160 --> 00:11:22,200 Speaker 1: Cribs are the same way. Cribs are the same way. Yeah, 221 00:11:22,800 --> 00:11:27,240 Speaker 1: I don't. For a lack of a better term, there's 222 00:11:27,280 --> 00:11:30,240 Speaker 1: an expiration date. A crib can only be so old 223 00:11:31,400 --> 00:11:35,880 Speaker 1: before a thrift shop or a secondhand shop will be 224 00:11:35,920 --> 00:11:37,160 Speaker 1: able to sell it. But if you. 225 00:11:37,320 --> 00:11:39,920 Speaker 2: Bought a crib, aren't you inspecting it and checking it 226 00:11:39,960 --> 00:11:42,200 Speaker 2: and make sure all the screws are there and everything else. 227 00:11:42,360 --> 00:11:45,480 Speaker 1: It's not that important, is it. It's just your just 228 00:11:45,520 --> 00:11:50,240 Speaker 1: your newborn. Yes, of course, of course, oh my newborn. 229 00:11:50,320 --> 00:11:53,400 Speaker 1: Oh no, I would never do a scrip somebody else.

They've rejected wet, yes, mild dude, moldy. 238 00:12:33,559 --> 00:12:36,240 Speaker 1: I guess I guess I can't donate, run Jeremy.

I know my humidor has been very wonky 341 00:18:35,560 --> 00:18:40,200 Speaker 2: as of late because I'm staying calm, because I'm not 342 00:18:40,280 --> 00:18:45,320 Speaker 2: trying to oversmoke it. I'm slowing down. Everything has gone 343 00:18:45,359 --> 00:18:47,960 Speaker 2: all right, man, this is going quite all right. 344 00:18:48,040 --> 00:18:52,320 Speaker 1: Is that a struggle for you? So slow down? So true? 345 00:18:52,359 --> 00:18:53,840 Speaker 1: True story, true story. 346 00:18:55,040 --> 00:19:02,560 Speaker 2: I have what are called the yips. It's started about 347 00:19:02,920 --> 00:19:05,200 Speaker 2: two months ago. You know what the yips are? The 348 00:19:05,280 --> 00:19:07,320 Speaker 2: yips and sports fingers on. Do you want to explain 349 00:19:07,400 --> 00:19:10,159 Speaker 2: what the what the yips are? Can you explain what 350 00:19:10,200 --> 00:19:11,560 Speaker 2: the yip is? You want me to do it, I'll 351 00:19:11,560 --> 00:19:11,880 Speaker 2: do it. 352 00:19:12,080 --> 00:19:16,159 Speaker 1: I will let you go ahead and explain what the 353 00:19:16,200 --> 00:19:18,159 Speaker 1: yips are because to me, I equate it to a 354 00:19:18,160 --> 00:19:20,640 Speaker 1: golf term where yeah, you're you're standing over a three 355 00:19:20,640 --> 00:19:24,600 Speaker 1: foot putt and you can't quite can't quite make it happen. 356 00:19:24,680 --> 00:19:26,399 Speaker 1: And then you rush through it and then you miss 357 00:19:26,840 --> 00:19:28,720 Speaker 1: the yips are when you forget to do the basics. 358 00:19:29,359 --> 00:19:31,720 Speaker 1: You just flat out for you don't remember what you're doing. 359 00:19:31,720 --> 00:19:32,600 Speaker 1: You're like, what's happening. 360 00:19:32,760 --> 00:19:35,280 Speaker 2: It's the movie Tim Cup talk about golfing and Kevin 361 00:19:35,280 --> 00:19:37,480 Speaker 2: Costser's wearing all the the gear and it's trying to 362 00:19:37,520 --> 00:19:40,320 Speaker 2: how you get the shot and everything. All of a sudden, 363 00:19:40,359 --> 00:19:44,080 Speaker 2: I forgot how smoke a cigar. Everything was plugging up everything. 364 00:19:44,119 --> 00:19:46,919 Speaker 2: It's been going on for months. I'm like, am I 365 00:19:47,000 --> 00:19:50,800 Speaker 2: really smoking that fast? And then one of my kids 366 00:19:50,840 --> 00:19:54,159 Speaker 2: observed that I'm smoking a lot while I'm working, and 367 00:19:54,240 --> 00:19:58,240 Speaker 2: so therefore I'm not in the right rhythm. And so 368 00:19:58,320 --> 00:20:02,639 Speaker 2: I think between some issues with the UH with the 369 00:20:02,720 --> 00:20:06,320 Speaker 2: humid or about humidification and temperature because I have an 370 00:20:06,320 --> 00:20:10,360 Speaker 2: electric humidor in cold weather, and because of its placement, 371 00:20:10,359 --> 00:20:14,320 Speaker 2: which is in the corner near two exposed walls, that 372 00:20:14,600 --> 00:20:17,600 Speaker 2: maybe that's having a real effect on the cigars. I 373 00:20:17,640 --> 00:20:20,199 Speaker 2: can't move it. There's no place I can move that 374 00:20:20,280 --> 00:20:24,440 Speaker 2: to in the studio. That makes dude, we're gonna We're 375 00:20:24,440 --> 00:20:27,840 Speaker 2: gonna rearrange the whole studio. You want to rearrange the 376 00:20:27,840 --> 00:20:28,440 Speaker 2: whole studio. 377 00:20:28,760 --> 00:20:34,119 Speaker 1: You I you want to rearrange. I want Tony Cats 378 00:20:34,200 --> 00:20:38,040 Speaker 1: to be happy? Well, what do I care about? That's all? 379 00:20:38,320 --> 00:20:41,119 Speaker 1: I wake up thinking what will make Tony happy? And 380 00:20:41,200 --> 00:20:44,600 Speaker 1: I know what will make Tony happy being able to 381 00:20:44,600 --> 00:20:48,120 Speaker 1: walk to his humidor grab a cigar and have absolutely 382 00:20:48,160 --> 00:20:52,120 Speaker 1: no issues with that cigar because there's perfect humification going 383 00:20:52,160 --> 00:20:53,040 Speaker 1: on in that. 384 00:20:54,160 --> 00:20:56,679 Speaker 2: I'm here to tell you right now, there is no 385 00:20:56,720 --> 00:20:59,080 Speaker 2: way to make me happy. I don't even know what 386 00:20:59,160 --> 00:21:03,880 Speaker 2: happiness is time, and I think that that humanification, humanification 387 00:21:04,080 --> 00:21:06,960 Speaker 2: is happiness. And I think that might be because I'm 388 00:21:06,960 --> 00:21:09,399 Speaker 2: overthinking it, like I'm overthinking the cigar. 389 00:21:09,200 --> 00:21:11,520 Speaker 1: Thing and and the the the yips. 390 00:21:11,880 --> 00:21:13,720 Speaker 2: So I just need to slow down a little bit, 391 00:21:14,119 --> 00:21:15,960 Speaker 2: and I think it's all right. What you want to 392 00:21:16,000 --> 00:21:18,960 Speaker 2: do with the cigar is grab it and grab your notebooks? 393 00:21:19,119 --> 00:21:20,800 Speaker 1: What did you eat today? What did you drink today? 394 00:21:20,920 --> 00:21:22,679 Speaker 2: This is the you know, first time you're doing your 395 00:21:22,680 --> 00:21:24,840 Speaker 2: notebook in twenty twenty sixth, Great new notebook. 396 00:21:25,359 --> 00:21:27,679 Speaker 1: And then what'd you eat? What'd you drink? What is 397 00:21:27,680 --> 00:21:28,800 Speaker 1: the weather? Bitter? 398 00:21:29,000 --> 00:21:32,160 Speaker 2: Stupid, embarrassing cold in Indianapolis, Indiana. 399 00:21:32,359 --> 00:21:35,959 Speaker 1: Not fun? Winning a national championship fun? Can I get 400 00:21:36,000 --> 00:21:39,639 Speaker 1: a little Oh yeah, who's your pride starts inside? 401 00:21:42,119 --> 00:21:45,840 Speaker 2: Who's yours? Defeating the Miami Hurricanes? Or his fingers from 402 00:21:46,000 --> 00:21:49,680 Speaker 2: I would say the evil Miami Hurricanes. That's not true 403 00:21:49,840 --> 00:21:50,920 Speaker 2: twenty seven twenty one. 404 00:21:50,960 --> 00:21:54,880 Speaker 1: We love Miami and we love all of Florida. Oh 405 00:21:54,920 --> 00:21:57,640 Speaker 1: my god, look at you. 406 00:21:57,680 --> 00:22:01,160 Speaker 2: Look at you think you think people listening in Florida 407 00:22:01,440 --> 00:22:04,080 Speaker 2: are gonna say because I call them the evil Miami 408 00:22:04,160 --> 00:22:07,240 Speaker 2: Hurricanes that, Oh my gosh, that Tony Kats. I'm not 409 00:22:07,400 --> 00:22:08,919 Speaker 2: We're not listening to eat, drink, smoke anymore. 410 00:22:09,040 --> 00:22:11,560 Speaker 1: Yes, that's Tony Katz. Fingers Maloy, on the other hand, 411 00:22:11,600 --> 00:22:13,760 Speaker 1: would say to America, what can I do to put 412 00:22:13,760 --> 00:22:15,800 Speaker 1: you into Florida today? 413 00:22:16,560 --> 00:22:18,000 Speaker 2: Then you take the cigar and you break it up 414 00:22:18,000 --> 00:22:19,800 Speaker 2: at the third it's first, third, second, third, final, third. 415 00:22:19,800 --> 00:22:20,920 Speaker 2: Just break it them in your mind, like, cut it 416 00:22:20,920 --> 00:22:22,919 Speaker 2: into thirds. What are the flavors you get out of 417 00:22:22,920 --> 00:22:25,200 Speaker 2: each third? Write those down when you try the cigar 418 00:22:25,240 --> 00:22:26,879 Speaker 2: a month from now, six months from now, whatever it is, 419 00:22:27,119 --> 00:22:29,120 Speaker 2: You do it again and then you compare your notes. 420 00:22:29,160 --> 00:22:30,520 Speaker 2: You kind of get your through line, like what are 421 00:22:30,560 --> 00:22:32,159 Speaker 2: the flavors that you really got from this? And then 422 00:22:32,200 --> 00:22:34,359 Speaker 2: you can get an idea of Okay, this kind of wrapper, 423 00:22:34,520 --> 00:22:36,840 Speaker 2: this kind of binder, these kinds of flavors. Then you 424 00:22:36,840 --> 00:22:39,639 Speaker 2: can start finding what really your palette is into and 425 00:22:39,680 --> 00:22:42,680 Speaker 2: what you enjoy. Twelve dollars and fifty cents a stick 426 00:22:42,720 --> 00:22:43,639 Speaker 2: fingers MOLOI. 427 00:22:44,600 --> 00:22:47,680 Speaker 1: I'm I'm in, I'm in. I'm enjoying it. The only 428 00:22:47,720 --> 00:22:50,280 Speaker 1: thing that I'm having an issue with I still have 429 00:22:51,320 --> 00:22:54,800 Speaker 1: that flavor profile. There's a cedar. There's a going back 430 00:22:54,840 --> 00:22:58,040 Speaker 1: between cedar and hay. You know, it's but a little 431 00:22:58,040 --> 00:23:00,720 Speaker 1: bit of a creamy sweetness, and that's that's about it. 432 00:23:00,800 --> 00:23:05,359 Speaker 1: I'm not getting that the cocoa's gone. Oh that bitter 433 00:23:05,520 --> 00:23:08,480 Speaker 1: is gone, whether it's coffee or whatever, whatever it was. 434 00:23:08,520 --> 00:23:10,600 Speaker 1: I don't have a good answer there. 435 00:23:10,800 --> 00:23:14,359 Speaker 2: I am getting a little bit of an uneven burn, 436 00:23:15,520 --> 00:23:18,640 Speaker 2: not yet a canoeing. So canoeing is what happens when 437 00:23:18,760 --> 00:23:21,520 Speaker 2: on just one side of the cigar, even though it's round, 438 00:23:22,000 --> 00:23:25,679 Speaker 2: you get that's where the burn is happening. It's not 439 00:23:25,720 --> 00:23:27,359 Speaker 2: happening on the other side, so you get this what 440 00:23:28,000 --> 00:23:30,879 Speaker 2: would look like a canoe. So sometimes you want to 441 00:23:30,880 --> 00:23:33,960 Speaker 2: take your lighter and just even it off. Sometimes you 442 00:23:34,160 --> 00:23:36,960 Speaker 2: realize that an area has gotten too hot, it's kind 443 00:23:36,960 --> 00:23:38,920 Speaker 2: of plugged up, and you just got to slow down, 444 00:23:38,960 --> 00:23:41,119 Speaker 2: maybe put it down for a little while, let it go, 445 00:23:41,240 --> 00:23:44,280 Speaker 2: and then come back and ash it off. 446 00:23:44,359 --> 00:23:46,920 Speaker 1: You're doing. I think you're okay. Fans. Yeah, the only 447 00:23:46,920 --> 00:23:48,760 Speaker 1: issue I have is with the tight draw, and it 448 00:23:48,840 --> 00:23:50,760 Speaker 1: could just be this particular cigar. 449 00:23:51,119 --> 00:23:55,800 Speaker 2: Remember that a cigar is rolled by hand, and because 450 00:23:55,800 --> 00:23:58,399 Speaker 2: of that, sometimes a cigar could be tight or it 451 00:23:58,400 --> 00:23:58,960 Speaker 2: could be looser. 452 00:23:59,000 --> 00:24:01,560 Speaker 1: Has nothing to do with anything other than that can happen. 453 00:24:01,720 --> 00:24:03,760 Speaker 2: Now, if you have the same cigar a few times 454 00:24:03,800 --> 00:24:06,120 Speaker 2: and you have this issue, then maybe it's just rolled 455 00:24:06,119 --> 00:24:08,840 Speaker 2: in away you don't like or okay that you know 456 00:24:09,119 --> 00:24:11,320 Speaker 2: I should take I should actually keep that it's rolled away. 457 00:24:11,359 --> 00:24:13,159 Speaker 1: You don't like that cigar's not for you, which is 458 00:24:13,240 --> 00:24:15,280 Speaker 1: totally fine. It should never feel like work. 459 00:24:15,760 --> 00:24:18,480 Speaker 2: God, you don't want that. You don't want that at all. 460 00:24:19,200 --> 00:24:20,679 Speaker 2: I'm a maybe on this cigar. 461 00:24:21,040 --> 00:24:21,880 Speaker 1: In my human er. 462 00:24:22,000 --> 00:24:26,480 Speaker 2: That initial fragrance and taste was too much. It was 463 00:24:26,560 --> 00:24:30,000 Speaker 2: just so much happening. This has turned into a very 464 00:24:30,080 --> 00:24:31,840 Speaker 2: nice cigar, though, I just don't know if I want 465 00:24:31,880 --> 00:24:33,520 Speaker 2: to fight through the first part for the second part, 466 00:24:33,760 --> 00:24:35,160 Speaker 2: And there are other room on of ones that I've 467 00:24:35,160 --> 00:24:38,760 Speaker 2: had that. I've had much more pleasurable enjoyment from right 468 00:24:38,800 --> 00:24:39,480 Speaker 2: from the start. 469 00:24:39,880 --> 00:24:41,760 Speaker 1: But room one on one, I'm glad we're doing it. 470 00:24:41,840 --> 00:24:46,200 Speaker 1: Fingers Willy, it's time for news of the week, the 471 00:24:46,240 --> 00:24:48,560 Speaker 1: week of the week of the week.

Oh that's what that's what you're doing. 507 00:26:37,840 --> 00:26:39,520 Speaker 1: It when an age we live and see when I 508 00:26:39,680 --> 00:26:42,120 Speaker 1: bought video games, they came in a nice little cartridge, 509 00:26:42,240 --> 00:26:43,920 Speaker 1: and every once in a while it would get dust 510 00:26:43,960 --> 00:26:45,399 Speaker 1: and you'd have to blow the dust out and then 511 00:26:45,480 --> 00:26:47,520 Speaker 1: put it into the atari twenty six hundred. 512 00:26:48,800 --> 00:26:53,200 Speaker 2: There's a simple time playing combat on your attire twenty 513 00:26:53,200 --> 00:26:54,720 Speaker 2: six hundred Space Invaders. 514 00:26:56,760 --> 00:27:06,639 Speaker 1: Those were Those were the day and in a story 515 00:27:06,840 --> 00:27:08,760 Speaker 1: that nobody needed told to them. 516 00:27:09,040 --> 00:27:11,560 Speaker 2: The CEO of Amazon wants you to know that the 517 00:27:11,680 --> 00:27:14,120 Speaker 2: tariffs have started to creep into prices. 518 00:27:16,119 --> 00:27:17,399 Speaker 1: Who didn't know this? 519 00:27:20,800 --> 00:27:23,800 Speaker 2: I got nothing, tea, drink, smoke. I'm Tony Katz. That's 520 00:27:23,800 --> 00:27:28,520 Speaker 2: America's favorite amateur drinker. Fingers maloy. Tariffs, which are attacks, 521 00:27:29,520 --> 00:27:33,399 Speaker 2: they are have been put on by this administration to 522 00:27:33,520 --> 00:27:37,440 Speaker 2: try and equalize what they see as a trade imbalance. 523 00:27:38,320 --> 00:27:41,680 Speaker 2: There is real conversation about whether or not this does 524 00:27:41,960 --> 00:27:43,000 Speaker 2: or does not work. 525 00:27:43,520 --> 00:27:47,000 Speaker 1: While the administration can clearly state that. 526 00:27:47,400 --> 00:27:52,200 Speaker 2: The tariffs have not contributed to inflation, the inflation hasn't left, 527 00:27:52,960 --> 00:27:56,439 Speaker 2: by the way, It just has not gone on an 528 00:27:56,520 --> 00:28:00,160 Speaker 2: explosion as many economists thought tariffs would do would which 529 00:28:00,200 --> 00:28:02,600 Speaker 2: is very very interesting. It's because there's so much else 530 00:28:02,680 --> 00:28:05,800 Speaker 2: happening on the other side of this economy. They're still 531 00:28:05,920 --> 00:28:09,680 Speaker 2: buying going on, which is quite incredible. But of course 532 00:28:09,760 --> 00:28:10,959 Speaker 2: tariffs increased prices. 533 00:28:11,160 --> 00:28:13,639 Speaker 1: This is not debate that we're doing here. I'm not 534 00:28:13,720 --> 00:28:15,320 Speaker 1: going to argue with anybody. 535 00:28:15,119 --> 00:28:17,840 Speaker 2: On a fundamental If you tell me that a good 536 00:28:18,160 --> 00:28:20,680 Speaker 2: it gets a tariff of twenty percent, so there's a 537 00:28:20,720 --> 00:28:23,800 Speaker 2: twenty percent additional cost. That cost is paid for by me, 538 00:28:24,560 --> 00:28:28,080 Speaker 2: not by the business. It paid for by you, not 539 00:28:28,280 --> 00:28:31,800 Speaker 2: by the business. So this was over at CNBC where 540 00:28:31,840 --> 00:28:34,800 Speaker 2: the CEO who is not Jeff Bezos, Jeff Bezos was 541 00:28:34,840 --> 00:28:36,680 Speaker 2: the founder. It's a guy in the name of Andy 542 00:28:36,760 --> 00:28:41,560 Speaker 2: Jassey saying that the prices are in there. 543 00:28:41,600 --> 00:28:44,240 Speaker 1: And what had happened was what many people did. 544 00:28:44,840 --> 00:28:48,200 Speaker 2: They bought as much as they could before the tariffs came, 545 00:28:49,080 --> 00:28:52,240 Speaker 2: and then they held off on accepting any shipments until 546 00:28:52,280 --> 00:28:54,640 Speaker 2: they had a better understanding of what the tariff landscape 547 00:28:54,720 --> 00:28:56,920 Speaker 2: looked like. And that's why you saw a lot of 548 00:28:57,000 --> 00:29:01,760 Speaker 2: things that were plentiful and then gone. They were gone 549 00:29:01,840 --> 00:29:05,120 Speaker 2: because people didn't reorder because the tariffs were there and 550 00:29:05,200 --> 00:29:06,880 Speaker 2: they weren't sure whether are they gonna pay an extra 551 00:29:06,960 --> 00:29:09,560 Speaker 2: thirty percent this month but only pay an extra twelve 552 00:29:09,600 --> 00:29:12,440 Speaker 2: percent next month? And now what do they do about 553 00:29:12,640 --> 00:29:14,479 Speaker 2: what they just spent an extra thirty percent on? How 554 00:29:14,520 --> 00:29:17,400 Speaker 2: do they get their money back from it? So there's 555 00:29:17,560 --> 00:29:18,840 Speaker 2: this massive back. 556 00:29:18,720 --> 00:29:24,200 Speaker 1: And forth that took place. But are we pretending that 557 00:29:24,320 --> 00:29:26,120 Speaker 1: things don't cost more than they used to on a 558 00:29:26,200 --> 00:29:29,640 Speaker 1: whole series of goods, never mind other things that aren't goods, 559 00:29:29,960 --> 00:29:33,920 Speaker 1: like insurance and other stuff. I think some people are, Yeah, 560 00:29:34,240 --> 00:29:38,160 Speaker 1: I'm so torn on the tariff thing, because I do 561 00:29:38,360 --> 00:29:41,320 Speaker 1: think that certain things need to be addressed, as far 562 00:29:41,560 --> 00:29:46,680 Speaker 1: as making better trade deals with countries that may have 563 00:29:46,760 --> 00:29:49,840 Speaker 1: been taking advantage of us, right, but then other tariffs 564 00:29:49,880 --> 00:29:53,760 Speaker 1: were introduced on countries goods that we were like, where's 565 00:29:53,800 --> 00:29:55,800 Speaker 1: this coming from. We had no idea this was gonna happen. 566 00:29:55,840 --> 00:29:57,600 Speaker 1: And at the end of the day, when you start 567 00:29:57,640 --> 00:30:00,360 Speaker 1: doing that, it does feel like it's gonna with some 568 00:30:00,560 --> 00:30:05,400 Speaker 1: pressure obviously on companies to raise prices because they're going 569 00:30:05,480 --> 00:30:10,720 Speaker 1: to pass it on to the consumer. It's a little 570 00:30:11,280 --> 00:30:14,520 Speaker 1: surprising to me, and I wonder if it is because 571 00:30:15,160 --> 00:30:18,360 Speaker 1: you know, fuel prices have come down so much, transportation 572 00:30:18,480 --> 00:30:22,600 Speaker 1: costs maybe not as much as they were previously, that 573 00:30:22,680 --> 00:30:28,520 Speaker 1: maybe that's canceled some of the what potential price increases 574 00:30:28,560 --> 00:30:30,239 Speaker 1: from tariffs that would have hit. 575 00:30:30,320 --> 00:30:32,560 Speaker 2: Otherwise, if you're saving on a gallon of gas, which 576 00:30:32,600 --> 00:30:35,160 Speaker 2: you are, you have the money to be able to 577 00:30:35,240 --> 00:30:38,080 Speaker 2: afford whatever the tariff price increase is. By the way, 578 00:30:38,480 --> 00:30:41,000 Speaker 2: you know, this whole thing about buying greenland, yes, or 579 00:30:41,400 --> 00:30:45,640 Speaker 2: or getting angry about taking Greenland and everything else. Earlier 580 00:30:45,720 --> 00:30:47,880 Speaker 2: this week, Trump said, well, we're gonna put tariffs on 581 00:30:47,920 --> 00:30:49,040 Speaker 2: all these European. 582 00:30:48,720 --> 00:30:51,640 Speaker 1: Nations until they agree to work with us. 583 00:30:51,880 --> 00:30:54,440 Speaker 2: That the United States have controlled Greenland, and then the 584 00:30:54,560 --> 00:30:57,560 Speaker 2: daw went down eight hundred and seventy points. And I'm 585 00:30:57,600 --> 00:31:00,400 Speaker 2: telling you, by the time people hear this, we'll have 586 00:31:00,520 --> 00:31:03,320 Speaker 2: recouped that and be up to forty at least. That's 587 00:31:03,400 --> 00:31:06,840 Speaker 2: what's happened when there have been these big drops because 588 00:31:06,880 --> 00:31:09,920 Speaker 2: of something happening in the administration or something happening in government. 589 00:31:10,720 --> 00:31:12,440 Speaker 1: You give it three days, you give it a week. 590 00:31:12,480 --> 00:31:15,960 Speaker 2: In three days, everything's back, the market record highs, it's 591 00:31:16,240 --> 00:31:19,880 Speaker 2: it's it seems impervious to all of it. 592 00:31:20,040 --> 00:31:22,200 Speaker 1: But your point matters. 593 00:31:22,920 --> 00:31:25,920 Speaker 2: What you talked about gas prices, which I believe is 594 00:31:26,000 --> 00:31:28,840 Speaker 2: a major one off the top of your head, because 595 00:31:28,840 --> 00:31:29,760 Speaker 2: we didn't go over this. 596 00:31:29,960 --> 00:31:32,320 Speaker 1: We we barely go over the show before we do it. 597 00:31:33,280 --> 00:31:34,000 Speaker 1: That's not true. 598 00:31:34,080 --> 00:31:36,400 Speaker 2: We have we have plans, and we have scripting, and 599 00:31:36,480 --> 00:31:39,959 Speaker 2: we do we do rehearsals, and there's choreography. Because if 600 00:31:39,960 --> 00:31:45,520 Speaker 2: we didn't plan this, it would show, right, what are 601 00:31:45,600 --> 00:31:48,880 Speaker 2: the three what are the three things that Americans need 602 00:31:48,960 --> 00:31:49,200 Speaker 2: to see? 603 00:31:49,240 --> 00:31:51,600 Speaker 1: Lower prices on before they say, you know what we're 604 00:31:51,640 --> 00:31:52,360 Speaker 1: gonna be all right. 605 00:31:52,760 --> 00:31:54,520 Speaker 2: I put, I put forth to you. The gas prices 606 00:31:54,600 --> 00:31:57,600 Speaker 2: is one of them. Boom, What are the other two? 607 00:31:58,640 --> 00:32:06,240 Speaker 1: I would say automobiles and food, specifically beef. Okay, beef 608 00:32:06,400 --> 00:32:07,680 Speaker 1: was one thousand percent in my head. 609 00:32:09,400 --> 00:32:13,600 Speaker 2: Autoblog states that the average price of a new car 610 00:32:13,720 --> 00:32:20,480 Speaker 2: right now is fifty thousand dollars. We go back to 611 00:32:20,560 --> 00:32:23,240 Speaker 2: this conversation. We've had this conversation. Thousand dollars a month 612 00:32:23,320 --> 00:32:27,040 Speaker 2: car payments. I'm in the market, don't ask, I'm in 613 00:32:27,120 --> 00:32:30,840 Speaker 2: the market, and I know what I want. And I 614 00:32:30,960 --> 00:32:34,360 Speaker 2: looked and I said, I'm not getting that I can 615 00:32:34,480 --> 00:32:39,680 Speaker 2: afford it. That I can't afford it doesn't mean I 616 00:32:39,760 --> 00:32:42,800 Speaker 2: should afford it, because if I have a thousand dollars 617 00:32:42,800 --> 00:32:47,160 Speaker 2: a month car payment, I will be so angry at myself. 618 00:32:47,480 --> 00:32:49,920 Speaker 1: I won't know what to do. I can't do it. 619 00:32:50,520 --> 00:32:52,600 Speaker 1: And then I start looking at you stuff and I 620 00:32:52,760 --> 00:32:56,480 Speaker 1: get just I get lost and where people think valuations 621 00:32:56,520 --> 00:33:00,720 Speaker 1: are and is that really ten dollars thousand dollars? Wait? 622 00:33:00,760 --> 00:33:03,000 Speaker 1: Why would that one with just one two tweaks is 623 00:33:03,040 --> 00:33:05,120 Speaker 1: now twenty thousand dollars? And the next thing. 624 00:33:05,120 --> 00:33:07,800 Speaker 2: You know, something I would want is thirty three thousand, 625 00:33:08,360 --> 00:33:13,720 Speaker 2: six years seven years old, and I immediately fall down 626 00:33:13,760 --> 00:33:15,240 Speaker 2: into the fetal position to wet myself. 627 00:33:15,680 --> 00:33:20,080 Speaker 1: Yeah, I yes, she is Monny, Yes, well I agree, 628 00:33:20,160 --> 00:33:24,000 Speaker 1: because you know, I've got a daughter that has turned sixteen, 629 00:33:24,080 --> 00:33:25,520 Speaker 1: and I'm gonna have to get a car for her. 630 00:33:25,640 --> 00:33:28,680 Speaker 1: And I wouldn't have been too long ago. I would 631 00:33:28,680 --> 00:33:31,680 Speaker 1: have thought to myself, well, I'll get her a eight 632 00:33:31,800 --> 00:33:34,560 Speaker 1: to ten year old used car that maybe will have 633 00:33:34,800 --> 00:33:37,120 Speaker 1: hopefully less than one hundred thousand miles on it, and 634 00:33:37,160 --> 00:33:41,760 Speaker 1: I'll spend eight or nine thousand dollars and forget about that. 635 00:33:43,760 --> 00:33:50,120 Speaker 1: I'm looking at ten year old used domestic sedans and 636 00:33:50,280 --> 00:33:53,280 Speaker 1: they're if they're under one hundred thousand miles, it's fifteen 637 00:33:53,400 --> 00:33:56,880 Speaker 1: sixteen thousand dollars. It's like, wait, I kind of people 638 00:33:56,880 --> 00:34:03,400 Speaker 1: are forced to finance ten year old vehicles fifteen thousand dollars. 639 00:34:03,680 --> 00:34:09,839 Speaker 1: It's insane. What prices are? So how how do those 640 00:34:09,960 --> 00:34:14,200 Speaker 1: prices go down? Right? What the administration has said? 641 00:34:14,239 --> 00:34:16,120 Speaker 2: And by the way, I don't care what anybody feels 642 00:34:16,120 --> 00:34:18,000 Speaker 2: about Trump, like them, don't like them, that's up to you. 643 00:34:18,120 --> 00:34:21,239 Speaker 2: We're talking about reality. This is the Trump administration, there 644 00:34:21,280 --> 00:34:25,239 Speaker 2: are things that are happening. They want to reduce emissions 645 00:34:26,400 --> 00:34:30,600 Speaker 2: standards and by doing that, reduce the price of vehicles. 646 00:34:30,719 --> 00:34:33,600 Speaker 2: Now that brings about an interesting conversation which I know 647 00:34:33,840 --> 00:34:37,879 Speaker 2: you talk about, which is cafe standards and how we've 648 00:34:37,920 --> 00:34:44,080 Speaker 2: put these onerous and call it an unreachable and irresponsible 649 00:34:44,760 --> 00:34:50,000 Speaker 2: kind of standards or or positions on car companies to reach. Well, 650 00:34:50,080 --> 00:34:52,359 Speaker 2: that stuff's gonna cost because you're throwing all this crap 651 00:34:52,440 --> 00:34:52,719 Speaker 2: at them. 652 00:34:52,920 --> 00:34:53,920 Speaker 1: Well, how can you even. 653 00:34:53,880 --> 00:34:57,120 Speaker 2: Begin to get mad at them? Does a regulation reduction 654 00:34:57,239 --> 00:34:58,000 Speaker 2: really make a difference. 655 00:34:59,080 --> 00:35:01,360 Speaker 1: Here's the problem. If it's on a federal level. You 656 00:35:01,480 --> 00:35:05,920 Speaker 1: have states that are putting regulations in place where automotive 657 00:35:06,000 --> 00:35:09,440 Speaker 1: manufacturers say to themselves, well, I have to meet these 658 00:35:09,520 --> 00:35:13,320 Speaker 1: state standards. It's not like you know, you're baking cookies 659 00:35:13,480 --> 00:35:15,439 Speaker 1: and you just you know, Okay, this is a batch 660 00:35:15,520 --> 00:35:20,839 Speaker 1: for California, this is a batch for Massachusetts. It's incredibly 661 00:35:20,960 --> 00:35:23,320 Speaker 1: difficult to meet these standards. And a lot of times, 662 00:35:24,360 --> 00:35:27,319 Speaker 1: you know, these standards are being put in place by 663 00:35:27,400 --> 00:35:29,880 Speaker 1: bureaucrats who have never stepped foot in an auto factory, 664 00:35:29,960 --> 00:35:33,040 Speaker 1: have no idea what is to how complex it is 665 00:35:33,160 --> 00:35:36,440 Speaker 1: to be able to start with some sheet metal and 666 00:35:36,640 --> 00:35:40,120 Speaker 1: at the end of the assembly line have a safe vehicle. 667 00:35:40,560 --> 00:35:43,680 Speaker 1: And then you mentioned the emission stuff. I have two 668 00:35:43,840 --> 00:35:48,960 Speaker 1: cars right now that have check engine lights on and 669 00:35:49,239 --> 00:35:51,680 Speaker 1: I run my scanner. It has something to do with 670 00:35:51,840 --> 00:35:55,480 Speaker 1: emissions that you know twenty years ago. These things wouldn't 671 00:35:55,480 --> 00:35:57,440 Speaker 1: even be on a car thirty years ago.

As far 761 00:40:39,960 --> 00:40:43,200 Speaker 1: as on the nose, I'm getting a nice bit of oak, 762 00:40:43,360 --> 00:40:52,480 Speaker 1: no alcohol, ethanol at all, and some vanilla. And that's 763 00:40:52,480 --> 00:40:53,560 Speaker 1: about it. Now. 764 00:40:53,640 --> 00:40:55,560 Speaker 2: Well, first of all, it's definitely sweet.

I'm 1010 00:55:30,160 --> 00:55:32,400 Speaker 1: Tony Katz. That's fingers fan. While you find everything we 1011 00:55:32,480 --> 00:55:33,960 Speaker 1: do at e Drink smokeshow dot com. 1012 00:55:34,480 --> 00:55:38,040 Speaker 2: We are smoking from Room one oh one. It is 1013 00:55:38,120 --> 00:55:42,920 Speaker 2: the Connecticut supertro six by fifty six. Now it's spelled farce. 1014 00:55:44,080 --> 00:55:46,880 Speaker 2: I thought it was farse. Finger said, what if it's 1015 00:55:46,920 --> 00:55:50,840 Speaker 2: far che, And I like, I don't know how it's pronounced. 1016 00:55:50,880 --> 00:55:53,719 Speaker 2: Actually I was half joking, but now it's all It's 1017 00:55:53,719 --> 00:55:55,719 Speaker 2: all I can think about. It's all I can think about. 1018 00:55:55,800 --> 00:55:58,360 Speaker 2: So uh att booth and room one on one? How 1019 00:55:58,480 --> 00:56:02,879 Speaker 2: is it properly pronounced? It is a really interesting Connecticut here. 1020 00:56:03,000 --> 00:56:05,040 Speaker 2: Now I've had a couple of issues with it, but 1021 00:56:05,120 --> 00:56:06,880 Speaker 2: we also set it down. We're doing other things in 1022 00:56:06,920 --> 00:56:11,000 Speaker 2: the show, talking a lot, so sometimes that happens. Also 1023 00:56:11,080 --> 00:56:14,520 Speaker 2: could be a humid or issue that I'm having, But 1024 00:56:14,719 --> 00:56:18,560 Speaker 2: it's in the main smoking, very lovely. It has very 1025 00:56:18,680 --> 00:56:22,440 Speaker 2: much smoothed out from a lot of that cocoa bittersweet 1026 00:56:22,719 --> 00:56:26,440 Speaker 2: kind of little coffee big wood spice that I got 1027 00:56:26,960 --> 00:56:29,680 Speaker 2: at the first that was a little too much. It 1028 00:56:29,760 --> 00:56:32,279 Speaker 2: is now settled into a nice, easy Connecticut, but I 1029 00:56:32,320 --> 00:56:35,759 Speaker 2: would not call it creamy, and I think it's got 1030 00:56:35,840 --> 00:56:37,960 Speaker 2: a little more punched to it. So this is definitely 1031 00:56:38,000 --> 00:56:41,440 Speaker 2: playing in the medium, but it doesn't have you know, 1032 00:56:42,719 --> 00:56:44,960 Speaker 2: a nuttiness, a nutty cream to it. It doesn't have 1033 00:56:45,960 --> 00:56:49,440 Speaker 2: a vanilla to it. It doesn't have that kind of softness. 1034 00:56:49,680 --> 00:56:54,600 Speaker 2: It's fine, it's not overpowering. Now there's a little bit 1035 00:56:54,640 --> 00:56:57,360 Speaker 2: of richness to it, but I'm not sure what exactly 1036 00:56:57,480 --> 00:56:59,600 Speaker 2: that flavor is. So at twelve dollars and fifty cents 1037 00:56:59,640 --> 00:57:03,760 Speaker 2: of stick, it is nice, but I don't know. Compared 1038 00:57:03,800 --> 00:57:05,640 Speaker 2: to other room one on one products that I've had, 1039 00:57:05,680 --> 00:57:07,879 Speaker 2: I think I'm in. I'm up for those things more 1040 00:57:07,960 --> 00:57:10,799 Speaker 2: than this. But it also could just be me, which 1041 00:57:10,840 --> 00:57:13,760 Speaker 2: is why I always suggest smoking it again, right, different 1042 00:57:13,800 --> 00:57:16,040 Speaker 2: things you ate, you drank, Whether all those things affecting 1043 00:57:16,120 --> 00:57:16,840 Speaker 2: palette could. 1044 00:57:16,640 --> 00:57:22,080 Speaker 1: Really affect the whole flavor profile. At the beginning of 1045 00:57:22,160 --> 00:57:24,800 Speaker 1: the show, you mentioned you thought it was smoking like 1046 00:57:24,920 --> 00:57:27,240 Speaker 1: a medium. Yes, have you changed your mind on it? 1047 00:57:27,320 --> 00:57:29,760 Speaker 1: I'm still there. I'm still there on the medium. I'm 1048 00:57:29,800 --> 00:57:32,760 Speaker 1: still I was at mild and now I'm starting to 1049 00:57:32,880 --> 00:57:35,200 Speaker 1: go into more of the medium camp as I'm getting 1050 00:57:35,200 --> 00:57:37,600 Speaker 1: into the final third. For me, you know, I had 1051 00:57:37,680 --> 00:57:40,200 Speaker 1: that those cedar notes, you know, going back for between 1052 00:57:40,280 --> 00:57:42,200 Speaker 1: cedar and hay, there's a little bit of a creamy 1053 00:57:42,240 --> 00:57:45,440 Speaker 1: sweetness to it that's gone away, and now a good 1054 00:57:45,520 --> 00:57:47,360 Speaker 1: bit of spice is picked up. As I've gotten into 1055 00:57:47,400 --> 00:57:51,840 Speaker 1: the final third, and I'm still a yes on this 1056 00:57:52,440 --> 00:57:56,160 Speaker 1: because you know, it's it's something different that normally isn't 1057 00:57:56,160 --> 00:57:59,680 Speaker 1: in my humidor but something that at that price point 1058 00:58:00,000 --> 00:58:02,439 Speaker 1: twelve dollars twelve to fifty a stick and we're gonna 1059 00:58:02,560 --> 00:58:06,160 Speaker 1: you know, we've been smoking this for a while. I 1060 00:58:06,400 --> 00:58:09,240 Speaker 1: think it's a yes for me, but we both had 1061 00:58:09,320 --> 00:58:13,200 Speaker 1: issues with it. Yeah, it could totally be just this 1062 00:58:13,400 --> 00:58:15,920 Speaker 1: particular stick, and you know that it was. It was, 1063 00:58:16,280 --> 00:58:19,400 Speaker 1: you know, a tough really hard to draw. You know. 1064 00:58:19,760 --> 00:58:21,320 Speaker 2: I will say I thought I was gonna have more 1065 00:58:21,400 --> 00:58:24,040 Speaker 2: issues with it. I've had less issues than I thought. 1066 00:58:24,320 --> 00:58:26,440 Speaker 2: But I don't know if it's the stick or my 1067 00:58:26,560 --> 00:58:28,200 Speaker 2: human or at this stitch. Yeah, it's just been a 1068 00:58:28,240 --> 00:58:30,080 Speaker 2: tight draw for me. And I've done the old pinchion 1069 00:58:30,160 --> 00:58:32,480 Speaker 2: roll and it's gotten better now that I'm in the 1070 00:58:32,560 --> 00:58:33,120 Speaker 2: final third. 1071 00:58:33,640 --> 00:58:36,200 Speaker 1: But at this point I lean yes, and. 1072 00:58:36,280 --> 00:58:40,800 Speaker 2: We are drinking from fifteen stars the first West Toasted Oak, 1073 00:58:41,240 --> 00:58:46,880 Speaker 2: Kentucky straight bourbon whiskey. I thought this was thin, had 1074 00:58:46,920 --> 00:58:50,800 Speaker 2: a nice, nice, appealing sweet nose. I thought this was thin. 1075 00:58:52,240 --> 00:58:55,520 Speaker 2: On the pallet, but the finish really came out with 1076 00:58:55,680 --> 00:58:57,160 Speaker 2: the oak, a little bit of that spice. 1077 00:58:57,840 --> 00:58:59,840 Speaker 1: You asked, do I get chocolate? I did. 1078 00:59:00,040 --> 00:59:03,760 Speaker 2: I did not, And I thought that that finish lasted. 1079 00:59:03,800 --> 00:59:07,200 Speaker 2: I thought that finish was outrageously pleasant. My question was 1080 00:59:07,560 --> 00:59:11,560 Speaker 2: would people be willing to forego the lack of palate 1081 00:59:11,840 --> 00:59:14,880 Speaker 2: to get to the finish, And I think people want both, 1082 00:59:15,240 --> 00:59:16,520 Speaker 2: but I could be wrong. 1083 00:59:16,600 --> 00:59:21,160 Speaker 1: You got different flavors out of this. I got vanilla, 1084 00:59:21,400 --> 00:59:25,360 Speaker 1: the oak and that spice really hits you. And then 1085 00:59:25,440 --> 00:59:30,040 Speaker 1: on the on the finish, I got some chocolate. It 1086 00:59:30,200 --> 00:59:34,920 Speaker 1: wasn't so delayed my satisfaction with this as it was 1087 00:59:35,040 --> 00:59:41,280 Speaker 1: for you. But I will say, seventy dollars for me 1088 00:59:41,640 --> 00:59:46,120 Speaker 1: is a no. Fifty. I would I would think about 1089 00:59:46,160 --> 00:59:49,480 Speaker 1: it and I would definitely recommend it at your favorite 1090 00:59:49,720 --> 00:59:53,480 Speaker 1: cigar lounge, especially a cigar lounge, to try a poor 1091 00:59:53,560 --> 00:59:55,920 Speaker 1: and see what you think. So I added a cube. 1092 00:59:56,640 --> 00:59:57,120 Speaker 1: You can hear it. 1093 00:59:57,240 --> 01:00:01,800 Speaker 2: It's kind of melted in there. Or water will bring 1094 01:00:01,920 --> 01:00:04,440 Speaker 2: down proof, right, this is ninety eight proof. It'll bring 1095 01:00:04,480 --> 01:00:06,040 Speaker 2: down proof, the only thing you can bring down proof, 1096 01:00:06,120 --> 01:00:09,240 Speaker 2: and it will change complexion. Some things we will pronounced 1097 01:00:09,280 --> 01:00:11,800 Speaker 2: some things more muted fingers, added a little bit of 1098 01:00:11,880 --> 01:00:12,760 Speaker 2: water to his. 1099 01:00:14,240 --> 01:00:14,840 Speaker 1: Spicier. 1100 01:00:16,040 --> 01:00:19,800 Speaker 2: Spicier in the palate, spicier in the finish, still getting 1101 01:00:20,240 --> 01:00:25,760 Speaker 2: the oak. This is msrping seventy dollars. I found it 1102 01:00:25,880 --> 01:00:32,200 Speaker 2: on sale for fifty one. I think I liked better 1103 01:00:32,320 --> 01:00:36,840 Speaker 2: neat than with the cube, and I just don't think 1104 01:00:36,920 --> 01:00:40,640 Speaker 2: this matches my overall flavor profile. I think that the 1105 01:00:40,760 --> 01:00:43,880 Speaker 2: missing of the palate for me is more than I want. 1106 01:00:44,200 --> 01:00:46,120 Speaker 2: If I had oak on the pallet, I had a 1107 01:00:46,240 --> 01:00:49,919 Speaker 2: real rich oak going going in, I think i'd feel 1108 01:00:50,040 --> 01:00:51,600 Speaker 2: differently because it is nice. 1109 01:00:52,400 --> 01:00:52,960 Speaker 1: It is nice. 1110 01:00:53,000 --> 01:00:57,320 Speaker 2: I just it's it's big. It's big on spice, and 1111 01:00:57,440 --> 01:01:00,120 Speaker 2: right now with the cube, it's really staying there in 1112 01:01:00,440 --> 01:01:01,640 Speaker 2: the chest. Now it's hit the chest. 1113 01:01:01,680 --> 01:01:02,880 Speaker 1: But you had a little bit of water, what's a 1114 01:01:03,040 --> 01:01:05,280 Speaker 1: I would agree with you on it being thin because 1115 01:01:05,280 --> 01:01:09,960 Speaker 1: there's no real coating. That lingers on your tongue, and 1116 01:01:10,920 --> 01:01:13,400 Speaker 1: that spice does hit you a little bit more with 1117 01:01:13,480 --> 01:01:16,120 Speaker 1: a little bit of water in it. I'm still getting 1118 01:01:16,240 --> 01:01:20,880 Speaker 1: oak and a little bit of chocolate on the finish. Listen, 1119 01:01:21,000 --> 01:01:24,520 Speaker 1: for me, this is all about value. And you start 1120 01:01:24,600 --> 01:01:28,680 Speaker 1: talking seventy dollars a bottle I can think of bourbon 1121 01:01:28,760 --> 01:01:30,760 Speaker 1: that I like that I could buy two bottles for 1122 01:01:31,200 --> 01:01:35,040 Speaker 1: at that price. I would definitely if I were out 1123 01:01:35,560 --> 01:01:37,720 Speaker 1: on the town and I saw this at a lounge, 1124 01:01:37,760 --> 01:01:41,440 Speaker 1: I would get a poor Yeah, it's I like it. 1125 01:01:41,720 --> 01:01:43,440 Speaker 1: I just don't know at that price point. If it's 1126 01:01:43,480 --> 01:01:44,720 Speaker 1: something that I could say it would be in my 1127 01:01:44,800 --> 01:01:49,520 Speaker 1: liquor cabinet. It's time Fingers Boy for news of the week. So, Tony, 1128 01:01:49,640 --> 01:01:52,960 Speaker 1: we have mentioned Kroger grocery stores from time to time 1129 01:01:53,080 --> 01:01:56,480 Speaker 1: on this show for you know, reasons that I don't 1130 01:01:56,520 --> 01:01:58,720 Speaker 1: really want to get into because I want to actually 1131 01:01:58,840 --> 01:02:03,760 Speaker 1: be positive about They're trying to sell your cell phone service. Yes, yeah, 1132 01:02:03,840 --> 01:02:06,400 Speaker 1: and it's happened quite a bit and it's very annoying, 1133 01:02:07,000 --> 01:02:09,320 Speaker 1: and so I don't want to come across as totally 1134 01:02:09,320 --> 01:02:12,720 Speaker 1: anti Kroger.

It is 1153 01:03:17,160 --> 01:03:19,720 Speaker 1: the dark place I went from. Oh wouldn't it be 1154 01:03:19,880 --> 01:03:22,600 Speaker 1: nice to be able to just have grocery bags on 1155 01:03:22,760 --> 01:03:26,240 Speaker 1: you and scan the scan the item and put it 1156 01:03:26,320 --> 01:03:28,240 Speaker 1: right in the bag and just walk out with the cart. 1157 01:03:28,320 --> 01:03:30,760 Speaker 1: And you've got us with computer chips in our wrists 1158 01:03:30,920 --> 01:03:34,360 Speaker 1: based on this, Oh yeah, oh absolutely absolutely. 1159 01:03:34,560 --> 01:03:38,680 Speaker 2: What what is it that that was in the terminator movies, whatever, 1160 01:03:38,800 --> 01:03:41,960 Speaker 2: the sky net or whatever, whatever whatever it is that's 1161 01:03:42,040 --> 01:03:43,360 Speaker 2: coming to be our overlord? 1162 01:03:43,920 --> 01:03:48,040 Speaker 1: This is one step closer.

It's gonna suggest you're eating too much of 1171 01:04:16,560 --> 01:04:18,600 Speaker 2: this and your doctor doesn't like it. And then it's 1172 01:04:18,640 --> 01:04:21,360 Speaker 2: going to cross reference your medical records and the next 1173 01:04:21,400 --> 01:04:24,560 Speaker 2: thing you know, you're not allowed to buy that cake 1174 01:04:24,880 --> 01:04:27,240 Speaker 2: for dessert because you've already had your allotments. 1175 01:04:27,560 --> 01:04:31,320 Speaker 1: We are all going to be slaves. Slaves, I say 1176 01:04:33,080 --> 01:04:37,120 Speaker 1: thank you Kroger for making my shopping experience a little 1177 01:04:37,160 --> 01:04:39,840 Speaker 1: bit easier, and stop trying to sell me cell phone service. 1178 01:04:40,160 --> 01:04:41,760 Speaker 1: You have freaks.

Eh, the other day it was a satellite dish. No, no, 1184 01:04:59,360 --> 01:05:06,640 Speaker 1: I didn't think it. Nineteen ninety three, being the Hoosiers 1185 01:05:06,880 --> 01:05:07,560 Speaker 1: that we are. 1186 01:05:07,880 --> 01:05:12,560 Speaker 2: Of course, it was all eyes on IU defeating Miami 1187 01:05:12,960 --> 01:05:16,240 Speaker 2: winning the national championship twenty seven to twenty one, being 1188 01:05:16,440 --> 01:05:21,280 Speaker 2: sixteen and oh and this is the turnaround story. Of 1189 01:05:21,400 --> 01:05:24,640 Speaker 2: turnaround stories, I want to make sure I'm clear. There 1190 01:05:24,800 --> 01:05:28,040 Speaker 2: is no bigger turnaround story in sports. This is it 1191 01:05:28,680 --> 01:05:31,840 Speaker 2: what Kurt Signetti, coach of the AYU Hoosiers did with 1192 01:05:31,960 --> 01:05:35,120 Speaker 2: this football team, did with the city of Bloomington. It's 1193 01:05:35,160 --> 01:05:38,280 Speaker 2: Indiana University, and sometimes people do call it University of Indiana, 1194 01:05:38,440 --> 01:05:40,480 Speaker 2: and then again some people refer to the people who 1195 01:05:40,520 --> 01:05:43,840 Speaker 2: live here as Indiana's and that's just sad. It's so set. 1196 01:05:44,000 --> 01:05:48,479 Speaker 2: It's Hoosiers people. You can't help but celebrate teat, drink smoke. 1197 01:05:48,480 --> 01:05:52,040 Speaker 2: I'm Tony Katz. That's America's favorite amateur drinker fingers bi boy. Oh, 1198 01:05:52,120 --> 01:05:54,000 Speaker 2: I would have gotten so many emails if I didn't 1199 01:05:54,000 --> 01:05:55,640 Speaker 2: self correct right there. 1200 01:05:55,880 --> 01:05:58,480 Speaker 1: It was the flow. It was the flow. I know, 1201 01:05:59,280 --> 01:06:00,440 Speaker 1: I know, I know. 1202 01:06:01,200 --> 01:06:07,920 Speaker 2: But incredible, incredible, incredible victory, incredible season. And there's talks, 1203 01:06:07,960 --> 01:06:10,800 Speaker 2: of course, as there always is, of hey, how do 1204 01:06:10,920 --> 01:06:12,800 Speaker 2: we do this college playoff? And it was it really 1205 01:06:12,920 --> 01:06:15,240 Speaker 2: done right? And who got left out? Notre Dame wasn't 1206 01:06:15,280 --> 01:06:16,919 Speaker 2: in the college playoff and they bout out of bowl 1207 01:06:16,960 --> 01:06:20,640 Speaker 2: games like we're not interested, thanks, but no, thanks, gotta go. 1208 01:06:21,520 --> 01:06:26,000 Speaker 2: So there's tremendous money here, there's tremendous opportunity here. 1209 01:06:26,640 --> 01:06:28,120 Speaker 1: Do you think they do the college playoff? 1210 01:06:28,200 --> 01:06:28,600 Speaker 3: Right? No? 1211 01:06:29,280 --> 01:06:33,320 Speaker 1: How should they do? I don't know one thing? They 1212 01:06:33,480 --> 01:06:38,160 Speaker 1: need to not have these smaller non power five conference 1213 01:06:39,200 --> 01:06:42,240 Speaker 1: So no, jmus Now, I mean when you know that, Okay, 1214 01:06:42,440 --> 01:06:46,000 Speaker 1: we're basically you want to be able to reward a 1215 01:06:46,120 --> 01:06:50,760 Speaker 1: team for having a great season. But everybody knows that 1216 01:06:50,840 --> 01:06:53,120 Speaker 1: they aren't going to win the national championship and they're 1217 01:06:53,160 --> 01:06:55,440 Speaker 1: probably going to get blown out the first game that 1218 01:06:55,520 --> 01:06:57,640 Speaker 1: they play. So what are we doing here? Why are 1219 01:06:57,720 --> 01:07:00,360 Speaker 1: we having these teams in the tournament? 1220 01:07:01,040 --> 01:07:06,080 Speaker 2: Everybody who is a potential competitor should be a real 1221 01:07:06,200 --> 01:07:07,200 Speaker 2: potential competitor. 1222 01:07:07,400 --> 01:07:12,080 Speaker 1: Yes, absolutely not a participation trophy. I can appreciate that. 1223 01:07:12,200 --> 01:07:14,680 Speaker 2: I don't think those teams would appreciate you saying that 1224 01:07:14,760 --> 01:07:16,520 Speaker 2: about them, but I appreciate the math. 1225 01:07:16,560 --> 01:07:18,040 Speaker 1: And I don't know if that means expanded or what 1226 01:07:18,160 --> 01:07:18,400 Speaker 1: have you. 1227 01:07:19,080 --> 01:07:24,240 Speaker 2: In the NFL, there's a story from NBC Sports where 1228 01:07:24,520 --> 01:07:27,120 Speaker 2: Robert Kraft, who's the owner of the Patriots, says, I 1229 01:07:27,200 --> 01:07:29,480 Speaker 2: want to tell you guys that we're going to push 1230 01:07:29,720 --> 01:07:33,000 Speaker 2: like the Dickens now to make international games more important 1231 01:07:33,040 --> 01:07:37,000 Speaker 2: with us. Every team will go to eighteen regular season games, 1232 01:07:37,400 --> 01:07:40,840 Speaker 2: two preseason games, eliminate one of the preseason games, and 1233 01:07:41,040 --> 01:07:48,200 Speaker 2: every team every year will play one game overseas. Oh now, 1234 01:07:49,000 --> 01:07:52,680 Speaker 2: this of course is making the NFL an international brand. 1235 01:07:53,040 --> 01:07:56,400 Speaker 2: This is about the money. They've seen the results in 1236 01:07:56,760 --> 01:08:01,240 Speaker 2: in London and in were they Madrid? They were Germany, right, 1237 01:08:01,480 --> 01:08:05,479 Speaker 2: Mexico City they've played, so they see this, they see 1238 01:08:05,560 --> 01:08:06,400 Speaker 2: the dollar signs. 1239 01:08:07,880 --> 01:08:09,000 Speaker 1: Do the players want this? 1240 01:08:09,520 --> 01:08:14,040 Speaker 2: Eighteen games, two preseason which is really not much of 1241 01:08:14,120 --> 01:08:17,040 Speaker 2: a workout at all, by the way, and you're expected 1242 01:08:17,080 --> 01:08:20,400 Speaker 2: to win all eighteen. It's an expectation that I don't 1243 01:08:20,479 --> 01:08:24,040 Speaker 2: know is rational. They want the money, but they don't 1244 01:08:24,080 --> 01:08:29,760 Speaker 2: want that schedule. It's so unreasonable to expect some of 1245 01:08:29,840 --> 01:08:34,680 Speaker 2: these teams. Especially the real thing that really needs to 1246 01:08:34,720 --> 01:08:37,519 Speaker 2: be investigated when it comes to the NFL and injuries, 1247 01:08:38,520 --> 01:08:43,439 Speaker 2: are these short turnarounds to Thursday night football the NFL, 1248 01:08:44,120 --> 01:08:47,360 Speaker 2: and I can understand why they're coming at it from 1249 01:08:47,400 --> 01:08:51,799 Speaker 2: this perspective. If you look at the highest rated television shows, 1250 01:08:53,000 --> 01:08:57,400 Speaker 2: you know, Top twenty, just single air. It's always NFL 1251 01:08:57,520 --> 01:09:00,599 Speaker 2: games dominate, and it doesn't matter if it's a really 1252 01:09:00,640 --> 01:09:03,160 Speaker 2: bad NFL game on Thursday night, people are going to 1253 01:09:03,240 --> 01:09:07,000 Speaker 2: tune in and watch. The problem is the players have 1254 01:09:07,160 --> 01:09:09,040 Speaker 2: such a short turnaround, so. 1255 01:09:09,080 --> 01:09:12,000 Speaker 1: They played on Sunday and now they're playing on Thursday. Yes, 1256 01:09:13,360 --> 01:09:16,200 Speaker 1: the Lions, I'll give you give an example. They played 1257 01:09:16,640 --> 01:09:19,320 Speaker 1: on the playoffs. They did not make it this year, 1258 01:09:19,720 --> 01:09:22,400 Speaker 1: but that's okay. But the Bears did, Yes, they did. 1259 01:09:22,800 --> 01:09:27,160 Speaker 1: Pack Congratulations to Ben Johnson and the Chicago Bears and 1260 01:09:27,800 --> 01:09:30,720 Speaker 1: the the Green Bay Packers were in the playoffs. Good 1261 01:09:30,720 --> 01:09:32,720 Speaker 1: for them. We'll see if they're all there next year. 1262 01:09:33,320 --> 01:09:36,519 Speaker 1: That's all. I like it. I like the I like 1263 01:09:36,600 --> 01:09:39,400 Speaker 1: the pro action there. But the the Lions played one 1264 01:09:39,520 --> 01:09:42,120 Speaker 1: extra preseason game because they played in the Hall of 1265 01:09:42,160 --> 01:09:44,720 Speaker 1: Fame game, and then they played on Thanksgiving and they 1266 01:09:44,760 --> 01:09:50,760 Speaker 1: played on Christmas. It's it's really getting to the point 1267 01:09:50,800 --> 01:09:54,479 Speaker 1: where they are asking I believe too much from these guys. 1268 01:09:54,760 --> 01:09:58,040 Speaker 1: You know, they're talking about this eighteenth game regular season 1269 01:09:58,400 --> 01:10:01,400 Speaker 1: with all the injuries, a lot of soft tissue stuff. 1270 01:10:01,720 --> 01:10:05,160 Speaker 1: You know, I look with George Kittle from San Francisco 1271 01:10:05,360 --> 01:10:09,559 Speaker 1: blew out his achilles. I think of you know several 1272 01:10:10,400 --> 01:10:15,000 Speaker 1: NFL players that blew out achilles this year. Adding the 1273 01:10:15,080 --> 01:10:16,880 Speaker 1: eighteenth game, It's going to be interesting how they go 1274 01:10:16,960 --> 01:10:19,680 Speaker 1: about doing it, because are they going to introduce a 1275 01:10:19,760 --> 01:10:22,360 Speaker 1: second bye week for these players and be like, Okay, 1276 01:10:22,439 --> 01:10:26,639 Speaker 1: this is the this is the thing that we will concede. 1277 01:10:26,880 --> 01:10:29,040 Speaker 1: We'll give you a second bye. Now it's a nineteen 1278 01:10:29,120 --> 01:10:32,439 Speaker 1: week see, no way, it's a twenty week season. Yes, 1279 01:10:33,560 --> 01:10:38,679 Speaker 1: So basically they'll be playing NFL football into March. Twenty 1280 01:10:38,800 --> 01:10:41,840 Speaker 1: week season that is five months. Now, you've got two 1281 01:10:41,880 --> 01:10:46,519 Speaker 1: preseason games, then you've got playoffs. I was exaggerating, but no, 1282 01:10:46,640 --> 01:10:47,160 Speaker 1: but you'll. 1283 01:10:47,000 --> 01:10:51,200 Speaker 2: Be starting in early August and you would be playing 1284 01:10:51,360 --> 01:10:52,760 Speaker 2: through February. 1285 01:10:52,520 --> 01:10:55,160 Speaker 1: Pretty close to it, pretty close to the end of February. Yeah, 1286 01:10:56,800 --> 01:10:59,679 Speaker 1: but you know, Robert Kraft brings up. Listen, the salary 1287 01:10:59,720 --> 01:11:02,439 Speaker 1: cap keeps going up, up, up up. You know, we 1288 01:11:02,600 --> 01:11:08,320 Speaker 1: need more revenue. You know, these streaming services, all of 1289 01:11:08,400 --> 01:11:11,960 Speaker 1: them are begging for more NFL football. So now you're 1290 01:11:12,000 --> 01:11:15,040 Speaker 1: in a situation where you're trying to make those entities 1291 01:11:15,080 --> 01:11:19,760 Speaker 1: happy and in the consumer of course, sits back and 1292 01:11:19,880 --> 01:11:22,559 Speaker 1: they feel like they're being taken advantage of between having 1293 01:11:22,680 --> 01:11:27,599 Speaker 1: one home game possibly taken away from you to let 1294 01:11:27,760 --> 01:11:32,840 Speaker 1: your team play in London or Berlin. To Okay, you 1295 01:11:32,920 --> 01:11:35,559 Speaker 1: want to see your team, you have to have cable 1296 01:11:35,720 --> 01:11:39,200 Speaker 1: and five different streaming services. It's getting outrageous. 1297 01:11:39,360 --> 01:11:42,680 Speaker 2: Doesn't the team not playing eight well, it'll be more 1298 01:11:42,720 --> 01:11:46,000 Speaker 2: than eight home games. Now I'm taking of autritional sixteen 1299 01:11:47,920 --> 01:11:52,719 Speaker 2: week season the old school. So doesn't this take away 1300 01:11:52,800 --> 01:11:56,840 Speaker 2: from the idea of not just a season ticket holders? 1301 01:11:56,880 --> 01:11:59,479 Speaker 1: But why would I build you a stadium when you're 1302 01:11:59,479 --> 01:12:01,160 Speaker 1: gonna be playing so many of your games not in 1303 01:12:01,240 --> 01:12:04,240 Speaker 1: the stadium? Why am I? Why am I spending There's. 1304 01:12:04,040 --> 01:12:06,280 Speaker 2: A whole story in Indiana about the possibility of the 1305 01:12:06,320 --> 01:12:09,720 Speaker 2: Bears coming and putting their stadium in Northwest Indiana, and 1306 01:12:09,760 --> 01:12:11,559 Speaker 2: I'm all in favor of this, although I have real 1307 01:12:11,600 --> 01:12:13,760 Speaker 2: issues with some of the floated plans for how this 1308 01:12:13,840 --> 01:12:16,160 Speaker 2: would be built and where the money comes from. I'm 1309 01:12:16,160 --> 01:12:19,320 Speaker 2: in favor of the revitalization of Northwest Indiana. Hammond and Garry, 1310 01:12:19,360 --> 01:12:20,600 Speaker 2: these areas that they may have heard of that have 1311 01:12:21,640 --> 01:12:25,160 Speaker 2: been for years just horrible, and they've wanted to build 1312 01:12:25,160 --> 01:12:27,479 Speaker 2: it just hasn't come, and people aren't coming there and 1313 01:12:27,640 --> 01:12:31,720 Speaker 2: this would be a huge revitalization. But now I'm gonna 1314 01:12:31,720 --> 01:12:33,760 Speaker 2: put up a billion plus dollars for a stadium and 1315 01:12:33,840 --> 01:12:35,680 Speaker 2: this teams think they should be able to own the 1316 01:12:35,760 --> 01:12:37,759 Speaker 2: stadiums and you're. 1317 01:12:37,600 --> 01:12:40,360 Speaker 1: Not even gonna be there full time. It is quite 1318 01:12:40,400 --> 01:12:43,680 Speaker 1: an ask, isn't that It's a huge ask. Yeah, well, 1319 01:12:43,840 --> 01:12:47,720 Speaker 1: ideally for the NFL's perspective, and they just haven't been 1320 01:12:47,760 --> 01:12:50,000 Speaker 1: able to figure out a way to do it as 1321 01:12:50,000 --> 01:12:55,160 Speaker 1: they would like. One team in Europe, particularly London, figure 1322 01:12:55,160 --> 01:12:59,000 Speaker 1: out the logistics. But at the end of the day, 1323 01:12:59,040 --> 01:13:03,639 Speaker 1: you have to convince player to your first round draft pick. 1324 01:13:04,439 --> 01:13:07,200 Speaker 1: You lived in Texas your entire life, and oh now 1325 01:13:07,240 --> 01:13:11,240 Speaker 1: you're moving to London. That also is a big ask. 1326 01:13:11,360 --> 01:13:12,680 Speaker 1: But you know what, you know, you know it's a 1327 01:13:12,720 --> 01:13:13,280 Speaker 1: small ask. 1328 01:13:13,880 --> 01:13:17,439 Speaker 2: Heading over to Defiance Beef and getting steaks directly to 1329 01:13:17,680 --> 01:13:20,639 Speaker 2: your door Defiance Beef dot com.
