Speaker 1: Ben le Bron talking about the new quarterback situation.
Speaker 2: If you missed it, please go ahead and go back
Speaker 2: and listen to it, because he has an information for us.
Speaker 1: And we're all excited.
Speaker 2: Not just about your Vikings, your Golden Gophers, your Wolves,
Speaker 2: you're wild. Not just about that, we're also excited about
Speaker 2: Minnesota's new professional volleyball team. Ladies and gentlemen, you got
Speaker 2: that right. We got a brand new guest in the studio.
Speaker 2: Our friend Dave Schwartz came in. He brought us some
Speaker 2: sweet swag.
Speaker 3: Hi, Dave, Hi, Dave. Hey, turn my Mike gun, good
Speaker 3: morning to see you. Hey man.
Speaker 2: Please introduce your guests that you brought in to say
Speaker 2: hello to us today.
Speaker 3: Please.
Speaker 4: Well, this is Minnesota Forge. Team president Michelle Haynes is here.
Speaker 3: Hi, Michelle, I'm Michelle ready.
Speaker 5: Thank you so much.
Speaker 2: Absolutely, the Minnesota Forge is our brand new major league
Speaker 2: volleyball team.
Speaker 5: Indeed, we are really excited to announce the new name
Speaker 5: and have our team starting at Grink you know arena
Speaker 5: in January.
Speaker 1: January. I was gonna, okay, gotcha all right?
Speaker 3: So how many teams in this league? What is the league?
Speaker 3: The league? Start? Give us all that stuff because I
Speaker 3: know nothing about it.
Speaker 5: Yeah, so we are. Major League Volleyball started three seasons
Speaker 5: ago and we'll be going into our four season. We're
Speaker 5: expanding to twelve teams this season, so it's growing really
Speaker 5: really fast. I came from the National Women's Soccer League
Speaker 5: and just watch the same thing happen within the span
Speaker 5: of about four.
Speaker 3: Or five years.
Speaker 5: So I think we're at a tipping point and Minnesota's
Speaker 5: going to lead the charge.
Speaker 2: And it would seem like this is a good market
Speaker 2: for volleyball, right, I mean, this would seem like this
Speaker 2: is going to go really really well.
Speaker 5: Here, amazing market for volleyball. There are seventeen thousand girls
Speaker 5: who played volleyball in this state. Certainly the program at
Speaker 5: University of Minnesota is beloved. It's I think just sitting
Speaker 5: under the surface and just ready to take over. So
Speaker 5: we're really excited to bring this to this community who
Speaker 5: loves the sports so much.
Speaker 3: R Can we talk name and logo? Like how did
Speaker 3: the name come up? And then what does this logo mean?
Speaker 5: Yeah, you know, I'm going through this process. It's really intentional.
Speaker 5: We wanted it to feel like Minnesota. We wanted it
Speaker 5: to be very authentic to who the people are, who
Speaker 5: the community is, the players, and so it was a
Speaker 5: really long process. We brought in the fans, we had
Speaker 5: the players community, and really the name came together as
Speaker 5: we were winding down to a couple different selections and
Speaker 5: everyone kept you know, they were drawn to this because
Speaker 5: it felt like it really reflected what the state is about,
Speaker 5: the resilience, the grittiness, just the way that the players
Speaker 5: want to play. They really loved it, so like it
Speaker 5: just as we continue to talk about it, just everything
Speaker 5: converged to this name.
Speaker 2: So how can we get more information? How can our
Speaker 2: fans find out more about this? How long is the season?
Speaker 1: And as you.
Speaker 2: Said, playing at the Grand Casino Arena, the first game
Speaker 2: is win.
Speaker 5: January twenty twenty seven. The season will go through April,
Speaker 5: and you can go to Minnesota Forge dot com to
Speaker 5: get more information we have. You can make your deposit today.
Speaker 5: We'll have an inaugural merch drop today at a brand
Speaker 5: launch event at thirty and so much more to count.
Speaker 3: Yeah, thet's right, Sauce. If you had named the team,
Speaker 3: what would you have named it?
Speaker 6: Well, the Forge is the best name for it, of course,
Speaker 6: but let's say, let's say for whatever reason, there was
Speaker 6: a trademark dispute.
Speaker 3: They're like, we can't call it the Forge. What else
Speaker 3: would you call Minnesota's volleyball team the Minnesota bump set Spikes?
Speaker 1: Is that what you wrote?
Speaker 3: I've worked with you so long. Look at the screen.
Speaker 3: I'm not O's pearlman. Come, I wrote this down twenty
Speaker 3: seconds ago. I knew you would say the Minnesota Bump
Speaker 3: Set Spikes changing. I'm not kidding a bit. Look at it.
Speaker 3: Do you see that? Watch it was?
Speaker 5: It was second on the list, and we kept going
Speaker 5: back and forth. So I'll we talked to the team
Speaker 5: and see.
Speaker 3: What we can do. I've worked with him so freaking long.
Speaker 5: They put paws on everything.
Speaker 3: We're changing the name. I'm so happy right now. That's amazing.
Speaker 3: I watched that in time.
Speaker 2: I believe I'm a shining Can you tell me about
Speaker 2: your expertise? What what gives you the the the skills
Speaker 2: to be the team president of this new team?
Speaker 3: Yeah? Great question.
Speaker 5: I came from the National Women's Soccer League. I was
Speaker 5: over at the league for two years overseeing marketing and
Speaker 5: prior to that, Seattle rain FC, and that was right
Speaker 5: when they were moving to lemon Field so they really
Speaker 5: needed to take it up a notch, you know, playing
Speaker 5: at the home of the Seahawks and Sounders, and so
Speaker 5: really that was the moment that the NWSL really started
Speaker 5: to take off. And just to give you a little example,
Speaker 5: at that time, expansion fees were two million dollars. Just
Speaker 5: this past year they signed their eighteenth team with Columbus,
Speaker 5: they paid two hundred and five million dollars for expansion fees,
Speaker 5: so we're talking ten thousand percent increase. So when you
Speaker 5: really look at what's happening, it's a good investment. Women's
Speaker 5: sports is a good investment. It's good business. So like
Speaker 5: when you're looking at what's happening with the w you
Speaker 5: certainly in WSL, volleyball is really that next sport that's
Speaker 5: lining up. So if you've got a few bucks laying around,
Speaker 5: I suggest you all invest now because you're going to
Speaker 5: miss out on what's the next big wave. And I
Speaker 5: predict that we'll see by the time the twenty twenty
Speaker 5: eight Olympics come around, I predict that volleyball will be
Speaker 5: just as big as you see these other sports.
Speaker 1: So I love that. Listen.
Speaker 2: I'm a team owner of the Minnesota Aurora FC, so
Speaker 2: I agree with you, women's sports is the way to
Speaker 2: go and it's a booming product in every sense. Speaking
Speaker 2: of that though, watched the first episode of Ted Lasso
Speaker 2: season four. Yeah, I had no idea that Kansas City
Speaker 2: has what it has as far as women's soccer goes
Speaker 2: incredible right there that whole state of seventeen thousand people
Speaker 2: in that stadium or something like that.
Speaker 5: The stadium right now is eleven thy five hundred, but
Speaker 5: they are expanding it to I think eighteen thousand because
Speaker 5: of demand is so high. They've sold out every game.
Speaker 5: They basically sold out their second season ticket allotment immediately,
Speaker 5: And it's just I think that's the difference with in sports,
Speaker 5: is like there's such a demand for it and when
Speaker 5: the investment is there. You certainly see that from the
Speaker 5: lungs in Kansas City. When you provide things that are
Speaker 5: at the level that any professional athlete should have and
Speaker 5: when you really just put a good product on the
Speaker 5: field that speaks to the fans that you're serving, that
Speaker 5: is the result and that is what we're building here.
Speaker 5: That is absolutely the vision for this team.
Speaker 2: Again, talking about playing inside that arena, that's a lot
Speaker 2: of space to fill right there, And of course I'm
Speaker 2: thinking about a volleyball court sitting in the middle of
Speaker 2: Grand Casino Arena right there. Are you going to put
Speaker 2: any kind of seats on the floor for something that
Speaker 2: there are?
Speaker 5: We will have court side seats, we will have party
Speaker 5: zones on the in courts, and then we will really
Speaker 5: create an experience. I don't think you know, when you
Speaker 5: think about other sports, you can really think about the
Speaker 5: best game day experiences. I don't think you can think
Speaker 5: about that right now with volleyball. And our goal is
Speaker 5: to make sure like we set the standard for that
Speaker 5: because we have the best venue in the.
Speaker 3: World for that.
Speaker 5: So wherever you're sitting, you're going to have a great
Speaker 5: experience in a great seat. And I truly believe that
Speaker 5: we can sell that place out the first game. Get
Speaker 5: your tickets when they go on sale, you better get
Speaker 5: them now because.
Speaker 1: It's gonna be a big deal, big deal.
Speaker 3: So forgive me if you mentioned this because I was
Speaker 3: too busy writing down Minnesota sets like I did stop
Speaker 3: minutes ago. As we speak, right, do you have Do
Speaker 3: you have Gopher stars that are going to be a
Speaker 3: part of this former Gophers?
Speaker 5: Sure do so. Our first signing was Stephanie Samity.
Speaker 3: Yeah lots of.
Speaker 7: Love, Yes yeah.
Speaker 8: She was at Minnesota when I was at Minnesota, and
Speaker 8: one of the most amazing players to watch, just like
Speaker 8: the leaping abilities, super tall, oh yeah, strong, and just
Speaker 8: the ability to I mean, her vertical's got to be insane.
Speaker 5: Yes, oh yeah, no, amazing, And we certainly have some others,
Speaker 5: but we have some best players from around the world.
Speaker 5: So Stephanie plays for USA Volleyball. She's one of their
Speaker 5: top tier players, plays all around the world. She just
Speaker 5: won a championship back in Japan, and he's ready to
Speaker 5: come home and help lead this team to greatness.
Speaker 2: Well, I'm just going to speak out of turn here,
Speaker 2: and I know that the announcement of the embargo, all
Speaker 2: that stuff. I tried to make it work out so
Speaker 2: you guys could be here yesterday when Marny was here.
Speaker 2: But you might not know this, but our beloved Marny
Speaker 2: Glarnare was a superstar volleyball player really, and nobody bumps
Speaker 2: sets or spiked. Well, I don't think she can get
Speaker 2: it over the net, but she never bumps or sets
Speaker 2: like Marnie does. And if you want to see a
Speaker 2: field of dreams kind of moment. Let her just go
Speaker 2: out and do warm ups with you guys one of
Speaker 2: these days and her watch her light up. She was
Speaker 2: a superstar. And well I may have been putting it.
Speaker 2: People knew her name. Well, it might not be too
Speaker 2: much either.
Speaker 1: She had a.
Speaker 2: Uniform in high school. But no, she loves volleyball, really doesn't.
Speaker 2: And I know she'd like to be a part of
Speaker 2: this as well. So again, Minnesota Forge first game coming
Speaker 2: up in January, gonna be huge, very much looking forward
Speaker 2: to it.
Speaker 1: Thank you forgetting your time. I hope that Dave Schwartz
Speaker 1: isn't holding you back.
Speaker 4: Wow, wow, I have Let me tell you, I've never
Speaker 4: felt shorter in my life than with these volleyball players.
Speaker 3: Yeah there and coach everybody. Yes, And you used to
Speaker 3: stand next to Eric Perkins all the time and he's
Speaker 3: he's a short East. That's one way to put it.
Speaker 1: Yeah, right, Dave, how are you involved? I mean, what's
Speaker 1: going on?
Speaker 3: Man?
Speaker 4: Well, I'm not playing. I can tell you that that's
Speaker 4: what happened. I'm helping out with PR. So it's been
Speaker 4: been fun. We're making the rounds and it's a fun time.
Speaker 4: I mean, as Michelle said, uh, women's sports is a
Speaker 4: great investment. You know, this is not charity. This is
Speaker 4: an investment. And I think I agree with her prediction
Speaker 4: that that this team and this franchise will go places
Speaker 4: very quickly.
Speaker 2: I'm gonna ask one more question, I promise I and
Speaker 2: then and we'll go back to the team president for this.
Speaker 2: For somebody who is a saying I'm a novice is
Speaker 2: not even good enough. Tell me how the s goes
Speaker 2: in professional volleyball? How many sets? Who's doing what? How
Speaker 2: many what's the the overall rules of the sport. How
Speaker 2: different are they from saying watching high school women's volleyball.
Speaker 4: It's a great question, Chris, thank you. Very similar, I think,
Speaker 4: I honestly, I am not. Do we play three five?
Speaker 5: We play up to five sets, but you can win
Speaker 5: it if you win the first two, you win best
Speaker 5: out of three, and it can go up to five sets,
Speaker 5: scores go up to twenty five. So it's very similar.
Speaker 1: Okay, yeah, yep.
Speaker 3: The thing is they're asking me to promote it, not
Speaker 3: sin Yeah.
Speaker 1: Sure, I just yeah, for sure. I was asking touching
Speaker 1: Avan spot.
Speaker 2: Yeah no, I just for people out there looking for
Speaker 2: more information, once again, what's the website and when do
Speaker 2: you know when the tickets are going to go on?

Speaker 3: up with you Dave as well.
Speaker 5: Yeah, and I really want to know who is the
Speaker 5: best at the Bump and the Spike.
Speaker 1: From this group.
Speaker 2: I'm going to guess that I give Parker the good point.
Speaker 1: Yes, I think the rest of us can reach the top.
Speaker 3: I don't think that would be fair.
Speaker 1: I don't think so.
Speaker 2: But if you need the voice of the Minnesota Forge,
Speaker 2: listen to this from Paul Meat Sauce Lambert Paul, give
Speaker 2: them a little taste of what it's going to be like.

Speaker 2: Isn't a coat and cash dang man.
Speaker 7: And you know it was weird at the Bananas game
Speaker 7: last week. Yeah. I can't remember where they brought in.
Speaker 7: It might have might have been Crevor May in his
Speaker 7: walk up song was Cod and Cambria. He's a pitcher,
Speaker 7: and so they ended up playing because he was warming up.
Speaker 3: They've played like two minutes.
Speaker 7: Of Welcome Home by Cod and Cabria to this crowd,
Speaker 7: of this family crowd.
Speaker 3: I'm telling you that it was awesome.
Speaker 2: They've done two in a row now, like rock opera records,
Speaker 2: and those words are like, uh when I when I
Speaker 2: hear those words, I think, well, that record sucks, you know,
Speaker 2: because there's only been maybe four in the history of
Speaker 2: rock and roll that we're worth of. Dam Both these
Speaker 2: records are very good in the store. The story follows
Speaker 2: a salient storyline. It's really really good. I love that band.
Speaker 1: Man. I hope I don't have a gig don night.
Speaker 2: I'd like to go see that show anyway. There All right,
Speaker 2: ladies and gentlemen, Parker Fox is here.
Speaker 3: Hie Parker, Hi guys, Hi Parker. Are you ready for headlines?
Speaker 1: It is time?
Speaker 7: Yeah, now it's time for headlines presented Vine.
Speaker 3: We get it. Sauce. Does it depress you or make
Speaker 3: you happy that I knew you were going to say
Speaker 3: the Minnesota bump set spikes? Is that like a good
Speaker 3: thing that we know each other that well? Or is
Speaker 3: it depressing that you were that predictable? I think it's
Speaker 3: a little column a columbe for sure. All right, So
Speaker 3: I'll shoot this is a two part sentence. The first sentence,
Speaker 3: I have a hunch, is going to excite most of
Speaker 3: these two rooms. And I said two rooms because I
Speaker 3: don't mean three rooms, because Zach, it's not interested. Trust me. Now,
Speaker 3: these two rooms in the first half of the sentence
Speaker 3: are going to be like whoa, go on, go on,
Speaker 3: let's get the second half of the sentence. Is why
Speaker 3: it's in the headlines. All right, So as excited as
Speaker 3: you're going to be, just give it five more seconds
Speaker 3: and wait until I finish the sentence.
Speaker 1: Thank you for that. Everybody understand what's going to make
Speaker 1: a fool of myself?
Speaker 3: Sauce. You were blowing your nose in the hallway. So
Speaker 3: here's the here's the the quick summation. There's a two
Speaker 3: part sentence. Before you get super excited about the first half,
Speaker 3: let me finish the second half, because that's the game changer.
Speaker 9: Okay you guys ready yeah.
Speaker 3: Sports Illustrated swimsuit model brooks Nader was hanging out topless
Speaker 3: on a boat off the coast of.
Speaker 1: Italy, ok tracking being cool.

Speaker 3: biological dad. Brooks Nader handlines.
Speaker 1: Why not because she's topless?
Speaker 3: I mean, yeah, m that is a weird family dynamic.
Speaker 3: Let's just call a spade a spade. What are we
Speaker 3: doing here? I don't know what are we doing here?
Speaker 3: I know everybody has ulsome jokes on the top of
Speaker 3: their head, but like, can we just say this is weird? Right?
Speaker 3: What are we doing here?
Speaker 1: Well?
Speaker 3: What is the goal here? You know? What are we doing?
Speaker 1: Here's the thing.
Speaker 2: I try not to judge what are we doing?
Speaker 3: I think she's just trying to avoid tandlines.
Speaker 1: That could be it. Yeah, maybe she's allergic to tops.
Speaker 3: I know, because the dad would want to avoid therapy,
Speaker 3: and I like tandlines. I don't want therapy.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I'm going to go with what you're saying is true.
Speaker 3: Papa pictures are interesting way okay, ye?
Speaker 1: Can we put them a bucket?
Speaker 3: One guy?
Speaker 1: What's her name again?
Speaker 7: There's one where the dad is I mean maybe it was.
Speaker 7: I don't think he's looking directly.
Speaker 3: At it Brooks Nader n A d e R. There's
Speaker 3: a lot of is this her dad right there? And
Speaker 3: this picture? But come on, he's looking right at her.
Speaker 3: Come on, man, it's her dad. But stop judging. In Italy,
Speaker 3: it's it's a European.
Speaker 6: Maybe he's finally able to take a deep rout now
Speaker 6: there's nearly a whisper of wind.
Speaker 1: It just happens.
Speaker 2: They caught him at a time when he was looking
Speaker 2: in that direction. I'm not going to judge this guy.
Speaker 3: He's staring right at him.
Speaker 2: Well, maybe there was an ingrown hair and she was
Speaker 2: asking for can you help me with this?
Speaker 3: It's his daughter. Everybody be cool. There was a fly
Speaker 3: or something on him. I don't know why you guys
Speaker 3: are that's so weird. Maybe it's not weird, it's weird.
Speaker 3: It's kind of weird. It's super weird.
Speaker 2: Judging because I make mistakes and I listen. I have
Speaker 2: pictures taken to me where I am not looking flattering.
Speaker 3: I think you look good, and every picture you always
Speaker 3: look a handsome. I just it's a weird one. Yeah.
Speaker 3: Today is episode two of Ted Lasso on Apple TV.
Speaker 2: Yeah, that's right already, Yep, Yeah, yep, I'm looking forward
Speaker 2: to it.
Speaker 1: I'll watch it.
Speaker 3: Yeah.
Speaker 2: It saved a little bit. Uh in the very end
Speaker 2: of that first episode. The rest of the first episode
Speaker 2: felt like dangerously h generic.
Speaker 3: Yep.
Speaker 2: Yes, but I'm hoping that episode two comes around. So
Speaker 2: I'm hoping, yeah, because I like that.
Speaker 3: Yeah, there's no way to say it. Generics the perfect word,
Speaker 3: because it wasn't good. It wasn't bad. It was just
Speaker 3: like this is just yeah, this is It's just there
Speaker 3: was nothing nothing.
Speaker 7: It was weird that it almost felt like a pilot. Yeah,
Speaker 7: well said episode on the first of season four, right
Speaker 7: like I.
Speaker 3: Said on Monday when we were reviewing it. If that
Speaker 3: was episode one of season one, I'd be like, I
Speaker 3: don't think this this show is not for me. No,
Speaker 3: I would have been out almost immediately.
Speaker 6: Generic is a great word, doc, because like Buddy, thank you.
Speaker 6: It's uh, it was something I had, like the I
Speaker 6: don't want to I mean grocery store bits.
Speaker 7: I don't know, there's a lot that just that felt
Speaker 7: completely unnecessary.
Speaker 3: They should have just left it alone. It was awkward.
Speaker 3: It was like having your daughter sun Tan topless on
Speaker 3: a boat in Italy.
Speaker 1: You guys aren't willing to give the benefit of the day.
Speaker 3: You know what, Papa, it's the human body. It's beautiful.
Speaker 3: Cot have to make it. You got, you got your ass.

Speaker 1: Yeah, that's what we were talking.
Speaker 3: Yes, you said sauce. Yeah, Kelly, it goes Kelly sauce
Speaker 3: and then Dove sauce. Middle child syndrome real or fake
Speaker 3: in what way? Well, he's superfluous. Oh, I don't know.
Speaker 3: Is that a good order or bad word?
Speaker 6: But that's that superfluis means. I'm like, it doesn't matter,
Speaker 6: it's nothing. Yeah, that's right, yeah right.
Speaker 3: Isn't that what that word means? Like being in the
Speaker 3: middle though it's great, it wouldn't change it at all.
Speaker 3: Do you believe that Dov got more attention or was spoiled?
Speaker 3: H No, dog got no attention. He got no attention. No,
Speaker 3: you got all of it. Yeah, Kelly, you and Kell
Speaker 3: got it all. Dov got none.
Speaker 6: Kelly got forty percent of it.
Speaker 3: I got sixty.
Speaker 2: Do you believe the Princess Donut should have continued to
Speaker 2: be a cat or do you think she should have
Speaker 2: become a human?
Speaker 3: Who's Princess Donut?
Speaker 1: So you admit it?
Speaker 3: Come on, man, you know yikes? Oh, don't google it,
Speaker 3: don't cheat, don't google it? Why princess says that? Two s's?

Speaker 3: pay per view or to actually go and purchase purchase
Speaker 3: a ticket and actually go see it in person, one
Speaker 3: hundred and thirty five dollars, OK, for three days. That's
Speaker 3: not that bad though, I mean that's forty bucks a day.

Speaker 6: Traffic and the Roots.
Speaker 1: That's unbelievable.
Speaker 3: I go second second day, Root, Well, think about this.
Speaker 3: I didn't know Peter Dookie came out in ninety four. Yeah,
Speaker 3: not that kind of came out Dad's it's hard to
Speaker 3: tell Zach and Parker and Max how big Green Day
Speaker 3: was in nineteen ninety four and when they hit the
Speaker 3: stage and then the entire crowd got into a mud
Speaker 3: fight and then threw mud at green Day with hostility,
Speaker 3: just like let's just all throw mud at each other.
Speaker 3: It was kind of legendary. And MTV ran that clip
Speaker 3: of green Day in the mud fight so many times
Speaker 3: because it was so cool. And you know, Billy Joe
Speaker 3: Armstrong was like, I want to be one of the
Speaker 3: mud people. He was covered in mud right the entire stage.
Speaker 3: That's what hawks Oh, I think was that Woodstock ninety
Speaker 3: four that was like a that was a cultural moment,
Speaker 3: right the mud fight. That was a huge deal man.
Speaker 1: Right now, a muddy mess.
Speaker 3: It was awesome.
Speaker 1: Yeah, that would have been fun. Being young is fun, remember, And.
Speaker 3: Again it was the attitude was so different than Woodstock
Speaker 3: ninety nine because that was playfully throwing mud. Five years
Speaker 3: later they were throwing Molotov cocktails at Fred Durst. Essentially
Speaker 3: very different. That's a slight exaggeration, but barely.
Speaker 6: Green Day's full set was thirty five minutes long, and
Speaker 6: I bet twenty minutes of it was the mud Fight.
Speaker 2: It was so Yeah, but there's songs that back then
Speaker 2: three minutes long, two and a half. Yeah, right, and
Speaker 2: my guess it was mostly that album, right.
Speaker 3: It must have been Welcome to Paradise and basket Case
Speaker 3: and Longview and god she it was Welcome I Come around. Yeah,
Speaker 3: it was all those Slammers, all the Slammers from Ducie.
Speaker 3: It's still their best album. Yeah. First unbelievable.
Speaker 2: I tell you something I learned last night about a
Speaker 2: different band. But I just I just came up and

Speaker 2: song the band the Killers ever wrote together was Mister
Speaker 2: bright Side.
Speaker 3: No kidding, no way really.
Speaker 1: Yeah. They had just met.
Speaker 2: Start the guitar players sent Brandon Flowers the music and
Speaker 2: he wrote mister Brightside because he had just been broken
Speaker 2: up with my girl.
Speaker 1: First song he ever wrote crazy so good. Yeah, hard
Speaker 1: to top that one.
Speaker 3: Yeah, pretty good. Start Go Blue for Blue, Go Blue.
Speaker 1: They sing at Michigan games.
Speaker 3: Oh did they really? Yeah? It's like, yeah, I think
Speaker 3: England does it too, No, don't they? They do the
Speaker 3: soccer team and the Minnesota United.
Speaker 1: She's touching his chest.
Speaker 3: It is the most devastating lyric it is. I mean,
Speaker 3: it just is.
Speaker 7: It is because it was it was supposed to be like,
Speaker 7: you know, now my stomach is sick and now she's
Speaker 7: touching his rhymes was sick. Yeah, but he changed the
Speaker 7: chest and as I've said before, it made it way worse.
Speaker 7: I'd rather have her touch the other thing. Yeah really, yeah,
Speaker 7: wouldn't you No.
Speaker 1: I'd rather just keep her damn hands to herself.
Speaker 3: Yeah, how about come hang out with me again? What
Speaker 3: are you doing with that? Dude? That guy? Speaking of awesome,
Speaker 3: awesome music. Thirty five years ago today, one of the
Speaker 3: greatest rock albums of all time, Metallica Black Album came out.
Speaker 3: Oh yeah, hell dr sand Man unforgiven, sad but true,
Speaker 3: nothing else matters.
Speaker 1: It changed everything Man Black Album.
Speaker 3: You guys.
Speaker 2: For me, it was Metallica. It was so not mainstream music.
Speaker 2: It it wasn't mainstream music, and then the Black Album
Speaker 2: came out.
Speaker 3: And that's why some Metallica fans hate the Black Album
Speaker 3: because then they quote sold out and they went mainstream.
Speaker 3: But for the rest of us, it's the best Metallica
Speaker 3: album and I don't think it's close. Yes, it's awesome.
Speaker 3: The sound is so crisp and clear and those riffs
Speaker 3: are unbelievable Metallica Black Album.
Speaker 1: Were you aware of them? Like with the song one,
Speaker 1: I mean for sure afterwards, but when it was new, like.
Speaker 3: Yeah, because that stuff got played on MTV.
Speaker 2: Yeah, and it was eight minutes long though, you know
