1 00:00:02,600 --> 00:00:10,520 Speaker 1: Bloomberg Audio Studios, Podcasts, radio News. I'm Matt Miller and 2 00:00:10,560 --> 00:00:12,760 Speaker 1: I'm Hannah Elliott, and this is Hot Pursuit. 3 00:00:19,840 --> 00:00:22,439 Speaker 2: All right, we have an amazing guest to sort of 4 00:00:22,440 --> 00:00:24,479 Speaker 2: explain how this podcast works. A lot of times we 5 00:00:24,560 --> 00:00:28,240 Speaker 2: do the interview first and then we do this intro. 6 00:00:28,440 --> 00:00:31,520 Speaker 2: So Hannah and I have already spoken with Chris. 7 00:00:31,280 --> 00:00:33,640 Speaker 3: Chris Body, Grammy winning trumpeter. 8 00:00:34,080 --> 00:00:37,120 Speaker 2: Yes, and I think he's had like four of his 9 00:00:37,159 --> 00:00:39,600 Speaker 2: albums debuted at number one on the Billboards. He's a 10 00:00:39,680 --> 00:00:45,600 Speaker 2: jazz musician, but he is a fanatic in terms of 11 00:00:45,720 --> 00:00:48,280 Speaker 2: racing cars or driving cars on the track. 12 00:00:48,440 --> 00:00:50,120 Speaker 3: He's like he's heavy into it. 13 00:00:50,280 --> 00:00:53,920 Speaker 2: Yeah, he got full bore into it, like no holds barre, 14 00:00:54,320 --> 00:00:59,720 Speaker 2: just headfirst. And by the way, so I was thinking, 15 00:00:59,760 --> 00:01:02,840 Speaker 2: I'd love to have our listeners email us. When we 16 00:01:02,880 --> 00:01:05,840 Speaker 2: get into the interview, you'll hear Chris talk about the 17 00:01:05,959 --> 00:01:10,760 Speaker 2: sound of engines. And I always have thought about being 18 00:01:10,760 --> 00:01:12,760 Speaker 2: able to tell the difference between, you know, a V 19 00:01:12,880 --> 00:01:15,760 Speaker 2: twin motorcycle or in line four a car in cars 20 00:01:15,760 --> 00:01:19,080 Speaker 2: of flat six, you know a V eight, And I 21 00:01:19,160 --> 00:01:21,560 Speaker 2: would love for people to email us and tell us 22 00:01:21,840 --> 00:01:24,679 Speaker 2: which engines they like the best. In terms of you know, 23 00:01:24,840 --> 00:01:28,160 Speaker 2: sonic pleasure. Don't you think that's an interesting. 24 00:01:27,640 --> 00:01:29,360 Speaker 1: Tell us your sonic pleasure fantasies? 25 00:01:29,480 --> 00:01:32,800 Speaker 2: What is your hot pursuit at Bloomberg dot net. So 26 00:01:32,880 --> 00:01:35,640 Speaker 2: what is your favorite motor sound? I don't know if 27 00:01:35,680 --> 00:01:39,160 Speaker 2: anyone everyone has one favorite because I appreciate a wide 28 00:01:39,240 --> 00:01:40,240 Speaker 2: variety of motors. 29 00:01:40,240 --> 00:01:44,360 Speaker 1: But you know, I'll be totally forthcoming and say the 30 00:01:44,400 --> 00:01:47,160 Speaker 1: engine sound is something that I notice. But I'm also 31 00:01:47,240 --> 00:01:50,080 Speaker 1: not the type to not turn on a radio when 32 00:01:50,120 --> 00:01:53,040 Speaker 1: I'm in a car, like yeah, I think Chris Chris 33 00:01:53,120 --> 00:01:56,000 Speaker 1: understandably when he's in his cars, he listens to the 34 00:01:56,080 --> 00:01:59,000 Speaker 1: music of the engine. Note I am not that civilized 35 00:01:59,040 --> 00:02:01,600 Speaker 1: or cultivated, and I will turn up the radio full 36 00:02:01,600 --> 00:02:04,640 Speaker 1: of blasts so well and to notice I do notice it, 37 00:02:04,680 --> 00:02:05,440 Speaker 1: but then I move on. 38 00:02:05,600 --> 00:02:09,160 Speaker 2: I mean, for me, it's it's a huge discussion on 39 00:02:09,200 --> 00:02:11,840 Speaker 2: some cars, like they sound great from the outside and 40 00:02:11,880 --> 00:02:15,040 Speaker 2: they don't. My Challenger doesn't sound very good on the inside. 41 00:02:15,040 --> 00:02:18,320 Speaker 2: There's a lot of drone. Some cars sound great on 42 00:02:18,400 --> 00:02:21,040 Speaker 2: the inside or fake sound is pumped in. That's nice 43 00:02:21,040 --> 00:02:22,639 Speaker 2: and you can't hear anything on the outside. 44 00:02:22,720 --> 00:02:23,280 Speaker 3: That's not good. 45 00:02:23,480 --> 00:02:27,560 Speaker 2: But some cars, you know, like my nine to eleven 46 00:02:27,720 --> 00:02:30,760 Speaker 2: would sound great in the high rev range, and it 47 00:02:30,880 --> 00:02:34,320 Speaker 2: wasn't much in the low revs. So there's such a 48 00:02:34,360 --> 00:02:37,080 Speaker 2: different kind of I love a Harley with straight pipes 49 00:02:37,120 --> 00:02:40,560 Speaker 2: on it, but I also like, you know, uh inline 50 00:02:40,840 --> 00:02:44,040 Speaker 2: for Moto GP bike screaming down the track. 51 00:02:44,480 --> 00:02:46,560 Speaker 1: I have to say, what I thought was really cool 52 00:02:46,600 --> 00:02:49,520 Speaker 1: that Chris brought up is that somehow learning to play 53 00:02:49,520 --> 00:02:52,480 Speaker 1: the trumpet is actually very similar to learning how to 54 00:02:52,560 --> 00:02:54,839 Speaker 1: drive on the track. That is something I've never thought 55 00:02:54,880 --> 00:02:57,680 Speaker 1: about and would have no idea about, and he kind 56 00:02:57,680 --> 00:02:58,600 Speaker 1: of laid it out for us. 57 00:02:58,639 --> 00:03:00,919 Speaker 2: Yeah, very coy about why they're similar. Before we get 58 00:03:00,919 --> 00:03:03,799 Speaker 2: to that. When I joined the Zoom call, you guys 59 00:03:03,840 --> 00:03:08,079 Speaker 2: were talking about your experience in the new Ferrari, and 60 00:03:08,200 --> 00:03:10,520 Speaker 2: I want to hear all that I can about that. Okay, 61 00:03:10,600 --> 00:03:12,400 Speaker 2: So the jarting with what it's called. 62 00:03:12,280 --> 00:03:17,280 Speaker 1: It's called the Ferrari Dodichi chillandry, and that's Italian for 63 00:03:17,480 --> 00:03:20,000 Speaker 1: twelve cylinder. So when you say you're driving the twelve 64 00:03:20,040 --> 00:03:23,600 Speaker 1: cylinder Ferrari and people say which one, you say, it's 65 00:03:23,639 --> 00:03:24,080 Speaker 1: that one. 66 00:03:24,240 --> 00:03:25,560 Speaker 2: It's the twelve cylinder. 67 00:03:25,600 --> 00:03:28,720 Speaker 3: It's the twelve cylinder Dodici chillandry. 68 00:03:28,760 --> 00:03:30,760 Speaker 1: Is. I made them say it to me like fifteen 69 00:03:30,800 --> 00:03:32,520 Speaker 1: times so I could be sure to say it correctly. 70 00:03:32,520 --> 00:03:33,480 Speaker 3: That's an approximation. 71 00:03:33,520 --> 00:03:35,720 Speaker 2: By the way, they have a tendency to do like 72 00:03:36,920 --> 00:03:42,920 Speaker 2: redundant naming strategies. Right, fer Ferrari and now for the 73 00:03:42,960 --> 00:03:44,440 Speaker 2: twelve cylinder Ferrari. 74 00:03:44,160 --> 00:03:46,920 Speaker 1: Twelve cil Like an inside joke the Italians have. They 75 00:03:47,000 --> 00:03:49,600 Speaker 1: just think it's hilarious to try to make American consumers 76 00:03:49,880 --> 00:03:53,040 Speaker 1: speak Italian. I think it's a big inside joke, and 77 00:03:53,120 --> 00:03:54,640 Speaker 1: you know they're laughing all the way to the I mean. 78 00:03:54,600 --> 00:03:57,000 Speaker 2: Ducati has the Desmo Sudici, which I. 79 00:03:57,040 --> 00:04:00,960 Speaker 3: Was I can't even say that. But back to the car. 80 00:04:01,320 --> 00:04:04,080 Speaker 1: I really liked it, and again I can't talk about 81 00:04:04,120 --> 00:04:06,480 Speaker 1: how it drives quite yet that's coming in October. 82 00:04:06,480 --> 00:04:08,440 Speaker 3: But I love how it looks. 83 00:04:08,920 --> 00:04:12,640 Speaker 1: And I've seen some very mixed responses on my social 84 00:04:12,720 --> 00:04:16,320 Speaker 1: media posts about it, understandably because I don't think it 85 00:04:16,400 --> 00:04:20,440 Speaker 1: photographs great. But this is basically a Daytona in the 86 00:04:20,440 --> 00:04:23,520 Speaker 1: front and sort of maybe like a GtC four Luso 87 00:04:23,600 --> 00:04:27,120 Speaker 1: in the rear, mixed together. There's some body panel. 88 00:04:27,200 --> 00:04:28,840 Speaker 2: The top of my favorite. 89 00:04:28,960 --> 00:04:32,240 Speaker 3: I mean great cars, great cars. I love it. 90 00:04:32,240 --> 00:04:36,000 Speaker 1: It follows the design language that started with the Roma, 91 00:04:36,440 --> 00:04:40,279 Speaker 1: which to me is a great direction for Ferrari. It's 92 00:04:40,320 --> 00:04:44,880 Speaker 1: toned down, it's more adult, it's more pure, it's simpler, 93 00:04:44,920 --> 00:04:48,000 Speaker 1: but more elegant. I really really like it, and it's 94 00:04:48,040 --> 00:04:49,720 Speaker 1: the type of car that when you look at it, 95 00:04:50,160 --> 00:04:53,120 Speaker 1: you know exactly what it is, unlike a lot of 96 00:04:53,160 --> 00:04:55,440 Speaker 1: vehicles from other automakers that you're like, now, which. 97 00:04:55,240 --> 00:04:55,600 Speaker 3: One is that? 98 00:04:55,680 --> 00:04:59,280 Speaker 1: Again, I can't really tell about right or which McLaren 99 00:04:59,360 --> 00:04:59,520 Speaker 1: is that. 100 00:05:00,080 --> 00:05:05,599 Speaker 2: This Ferrari I think is one of the most beautiful car, 101 00:05:05,680 --> 00:05:09,440 Speaker 2: certainly new cars out there, except for when it's in 102 00:05:09,920 --> 00:05:12,960 Speaker 2: the ugly seventies gold that they. 103 00:05:12,880 --> 00:05:16,760 Speaker 3: Had correct period correct color. 104 00:05:17,160 --> 00:05:23,200 Speaker 1: It's it's a Guyo Monte mont Gyo. Oh, I gotta, 105 00:05:23,279 --> 00:05:26,360 Speaker 1: I gotta, I gotta look it's like Gyo Montenegro. 106 00:05:26,560 --> 00:05:28,040 Speaker 2: Now I have to know now you look it up. 107 00:05:28,040 --> 00:05:31,159 Speaker 2: But I'll just tell you that Don Johnson would never 108 00:05:31,240 --> 00:05:34,560 Speaker 2: have driven that color car in Miami Vice. I mean, 109 00:05:35,760 --> 00:05:36,120 Speaker 2: I don't know. 110 00:05:36,200 --> 00:05:37,920 Speaker 1: Look, it's not my first choice, but I don't think 111 00:05:37,920 --> 00:05:39,800 Speaker 1: it's quite as it's Gyo Monte Carlo. 112 00:05:39,960 --> 00:05:43,200 Speaker 3: There a period correct color. 113 00:05:43,560 --> 00:05:45,680 Speaker 1: It looks. It's not the worst I've seen. I'll tell 114 00:05:45,720 --> 00:05:47,520 Speaker 1: you that it's not terrible. 115 00:05:47,240 --> 00:05:48,680 Speaker 3: But I would like to see it in more of 116 00:05:48,720 --> 00:05:49,520 Speaker 3: like a slate. 117 00:05:49,320 --> 00:05:50,040 Speaker 1: Gray or something. 118 00:05:50,279 --> 00:05:51,320 Speaker 2: Yeah, or red? 119 00:05:52,080 --> 00:05:55,760 Speaker 1: No red, where no for a Ferrari expected so cliche, 120 00:05:56,040 --> 00:05:58,039 Speaker 1: come on, so cliche, so expected? 121 00:05:58,160 --> 00:06:00,160 Speaker 2: Well black in that case, that's what color. 122 00:06:00,720 --> 00:06:01,719 Speaker 3: Black would be very. 123 00:06:01,760 --> 00:06:03,880 Speaker 2: The Miami Vice Daytona was black, right, you know. 124 00:06:04,000 --> 00:06:06,720 Speaker 1: I take my cues from whenever there's a decent Ferrari 125 00:06:06,839 --> 00:06:09,640 Speaker 1: up for sale on the on the aftermarket, the ones 126 00:06:09,640 --> 00:06:11,400 Speaker 1: that aren't red are always worth more. 127 00:06:11,800 --> 00:06:16,400 Speaker 2: True, But it just looks it's such an elegant vehicle 128 00:06:16,560 --> 00:06:20,560 Speaker 2: that the gold one looked not elegant because it then 129 00:06:20,640 --> 00:06:23,320 Speaker 2: has I don't know if it's chrome or whatever. The 130 00:06:25,040 --> 00:06:27,560 Speaker 2: it looked like machined parts were on the bumper and 131 00:06:27,640 --> 00:06:28,120 Speaker 2: in the back. 132 00:06:28,560 --> 00:06:31,360 Speaker 1: I will tell you this that the seats were sort 133 00:06:31,400 --> 00:06:35,520 Speaker 1: of a mossy green, which when I first saw this 134 00:06:35,600 --> 00:06:38,360 Speaker 1: combination of a sort of a gold car with mossy 135 00:06:38,440 --> 00:06:43,800 Speaker 1: green seats, it gave me pause. Yeah, and even as 136 00:06:43,839 --> 00:06:46,640 Speaker 1: I describe it, it sounds like it would be horrible. 137 00:06:46,440 --> 00:06:48,000 Speaker 2: Now, sounds like dog diarrhea. 138 00:06:48,200 --> 00:06:52,080 Speaker 1: Yeah. In real life though, I actually think maybe this 139 00:06:52,240 --> 00:06:56,360 Speaker 1: is genius. Maybe this will age great and it'll be 140 00:06:56,440 --> 00:06:58,560 Speaker 1: one of those cool cars we see from the seventies 141 00:06:58,600 --> 00:07:01,080 Speaker 1: that are sort of specked. It's crazy, But then you realized, no, 142 00:07:01,160 --> 00:07:02,720 Speaker 1: this is amazing and whoever did this was. 143 00:07:02,640 --> 00:07:03,880 Speaker 3: Ahead of their time and genius. 144 00:07:04,160 --> 00:07:07,520 Speaker 1: So I'm withholding my judgment on the green and yellow 145 00:07:07,560 --> 00:07:11,040 Speaker 1: combo okay for the car, because it might be genius. 146 00:07:11,560 --> 00:07:14,720 Speaker 2: I guess, would you wear the Ferrari inspired fashion that 147 00:07:14,800 --> 00:07:17,720 Speaker 2: you were No, No, you're showing us out of Miami, 148 00:07:17,720 --> 00:07:19,040 Speaker 2: because that was equally bad. 149 00:07:19,240 --> 00:07:19,720 Speaker 1: I would? 150 00:07:19,840 --> 00:07:20,400 Speaker 3: I would. 151 00:07:20,640 --> 00:07:23,480 Speaker 1: I bet you I could find a piece in that 152 00:07:23,560 --> 00:07:27,280 Speaker 1: collection that I would wear, mixed in with other brands. 153 00:07:27,320 --> 00:07:30,840 Speaker 1: The problem that I find with people who purchase automotive 154 00:07:30,880 --> 00:07:32,680 Speaker 1: inspired fashion where is. 155 00:07:32,640 --> 00:07:33,640 Speaker 3: They wear all of it? 156 00:07:33,840 --> 00:07:37,840 Speaker 1: Yes, and that is definitely a bad idea. You know, 157 00:07:37,880 --> 00:07:40,120 Speaker 1: they were the Fannie pack and the windbreaker and the 158 00:07:40,160 --> 00:07:41,400 Speaker 1: hat and the shorts. 159 00:07:42,160 --> 00:07:43,480 Speaker 3: No one. 160 00:07:43,800 --> 00:07:47,640 Speaker 2: And that's not a typical Ferrari buyer's mistake. It's more 161 00:07:47,640 --> 00:07:49,960 Speaker 2: of a I would say a Lamborghini buyer is more 162 00:07:50,040 --> 00:07:53,920 Speaker 2: likely to do that. And on that note, you came 163 00:07:53,920 --> 00:07:56,200 Speaker 2: out your story on the Lamborghini where of Welto came out, 164 00:07:56,200 --> 00:07:59,720 Speaker 2: which is why I bring it up six hundred and 165 00:07:59,760 --> 00:08:02,680 Speaker 2: four one thousand dollars. We've already talked about it. Obviously 166 00:08:02,720 --> 00:08:06,160 Speaker 2: you drove it on your trip to Monterey, but big fan, 167 00:08:06,680 --> 00:08:09,720 Speaker 2: I really want to drive the In fact, I think 168 00:08:09,760 --> 00:08:13,840 Speaker 2: I would rather have this than the Ferrari if it 169 00:08:13,840 --> 00:08:16,400 Speaker 2: weren't as an investment, because you know, the Ferrari is 170 00:08:16,440 --> 00:08:18,239 Speaker 2: going to appreciate, And why don't. 171 00:08:18,080 --> 00:08:19,800 Speaker 3: You think the Revelta would appreciate. 172 00:08:20,880 --> 00:08:23,080 Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm sure it will.

But I'll tell you it looked 210 00:10:04,000 --> 00:10:07,439 Speaker 2: so beautiful and it's so small compared to a modern 211 00:10:07,480 --> 00:10:08,959 Speaker 2: nine to eleven. Now, I guess it's true of any 212 00:10:09,040 --> 00:10:12,840 Speaker 2: nine six four or you know previous. But I sat 213 00:10:12,920 --> 00:10:15,560 Speaker 2: in it and I like fit perfectly.

I can buy 240 00:11:32,520 --> 00:11:34,200 Speaker 1: five cars for that price right now. 241 00:11:34,280 --> 00:11:35,960 Speaker 2: I mean, I don't have a million plus dollars, so 242 00:11:35,960 --> 00:11:38,760 Speaker 2: I'm not going to be doing it. It's just if 243 00:11:38,760 --> 00:11:43,720 Speaker 2: we're dreaming about, you know, a Ferrari duo Duccio Celendre, 244 00:11:43,840 --> 00:11:46,600 Speaker 2: whatever it was with Dici Chillandri do Dchi Chiland. 245 00:11:46,840 --> 00:11:48,360 Speaker 1: I know that's not perfect, and I'm going to get 246 00:11:48,360 --> 00:11:50,679 Speaker 1: Italians telling me how I'm saying it wrong, because all 247 00:11:50,720 --> 00:11:52,560 Speaker 1: of you correct me all the time and I see 248 00:11:52,600 --> 00:11:57,200 Speaker 1: every single comment.

I have never heard 316 00:15:54,800 --> 00:16:00,360 Speaker 2: of such a rapid progression. First of all, I want 317 00:16:00,360 --> 00:16:03,400 Speaker 2: to dig into the sound. Yeah. I have a million questions, 318 00:16:03,400 --> 00:16:05,400 Speaker 2: but I want to dig into the sound aspect because 319 00:16:05,400 --> 00:16:08,320 Speaker 2: obviously you're famous, as Hannah said, for the music, and 320 00:16:09,200 --> 00:16:13,640 Speaker 2: I think, you know, we talk about the trumpets on 321 00:16:13,680 --> 00:16:16,400 Speaker 2: a motor at least the old you know carbs and 322 00:16:17,320 --> 00:16:20,680 Speaker 2: what what what is it about the sound of this 323 00:16:20,960 --> 00:16:23,720 Speaker 2: GT four which is you know, it's a naturally aspirated sound, 324 00:16:23,760 --> 00:16:26,520 Speaker 2: so it's different than your turbos, right, But what is 325 00:16:26,560 --> 00:16:27,760 Speaker 2: it about that that got you? 326 00:16:28,960 --> 00:16:31,680 Speaker 4: Well? I think initially it was the combination of the 327 00:16:31,680 --> 00:16:34,200 Speaker 4: way that that gentleman drove because you know, I would 328 00:16:34,280 --> 00:16:37,360 Speaker 4: I was only aware of how you drive a car 329 00:16:37,360 --> 00:16:40,560 Speaker 4: on the street, you know, now having been living and 330 00:16:40,800 --> 00:16:44,840 Speaker 4: and and really focusing on track driving because I live 331 00:16:44,880 --> 00:16:48,280 Speaker 4: on a track, you dried completely different. So when you 332 00:16:48,320 --> 00:16:51,720 Speaker 4: get in a car with the professional driver and they're 333 00:16:51,800 --> 00:16:54,000 Speaker 4: hurling up like I said on on the on the 334 00:16:54,080 --> 00:16:55,920 Speaker 4: curbs and doing all that stuff, and the way the 335 00:16:56,000 --> 00:16:58,160 Speaker 4: throttle and the and the and the and the break 336 00:16:58,800 --> 00:17:03,600 Speaker 4: interaction is completely different. But the sound flipped everything from 337 00:17:03,640 --> 00:17:05,280 Speaker 4: being like, here's a car that I want to take 338 00:17:05,280 --> 00:17:06,919 Speaker 4: out to dinner and hand to the ballet and be 339 00:17:07,000 --> 00:17:11,800 Speaker 4: kind of showy in Los Angeles to a completely personal, private, 340 00:17:12,480 --> 00:17:17,240 Speaker 4: almost meditative experience that you know, I never I never 341 00:17:17,320 --> 00:17:19,320 Speaker 4: take any of my cars now out to dinner. I 342 00:17:19,480 --> 00:17:22,399 Speaker 4: just take an uber, you know. But it just in 343 00:17:22,400 --> 00:17:26,160 Speaker 4: that one instant transformed everything to this, Oh my goodness, 344 00:17:26,200 --> 00:17:30,080 Speaker 4: my goodness, this is a very personal journey. And now 345 00:17:30,240 --> 00:17:33,679 Speaker 4: subsequently meeting and all these different people in the car world, 346 00:17:34,080 --> 00:17:37,800 Speaker 4: it's exposed me to all these other social interaction which 347 00:17:37,840 --> 00:17:40,479 Speaker 4: is completely different than the music world, which is certainly 348 00:17:40,520 --> 00:17:43,639 Speaker 4: completely different than the jazz world, you know. But the 349 00:17:43,800 --> 00:17:48,479 Speaker 4: sound sound became just so important to me, and and 350 00:17:48,680 --> 00:17:51,600 Speaker 4: I just boy, it's just like a dopamine dump that 351 00:17:51,680 --> 00:17:57,680 Speaker 4: I can't really hard to explain. And then the similarities 352 00:17:57,680 --> 00:18:00,679 Speaker 4: between learning the trumpet and learning how to drive on 353 00:18:00,760 --> 00:18:07,840 Speaker 4: a track are almost training tracks, how because because because 354 00:18:07,880 --> 00:18:10,840 Speaker 4: the because the you don't just get up and play 355 00:18:10,880 --> 00:18:13,480 Speaker 4: the trumpet. You have to have you know, you have 356 00:18:13,560 --> 00:18:17,399 Speaker 4: to have awareness of what's happening. So so when you 357 00:18:17,480 --> 00:18:19,360 Speaker 4: drive on a track or when you drive a car, 358 00:18:19,880 --> 00:18:22,480 Speaker 4: you know, and you have to like know what you're doing, 359 00:18:22,520 --> 00:18:24,720 Speaker 4: and you have to have hours and hours and hours 360 00:18:24,760 --> 00:18:28,560 Speaker 4: of muscle memory. And that means, you know, now I 361 00:18:28,600 --> 00:18:30,960 Speaker 4: have two sim rigs and blah blah blah blah blah. 362 00:18:30,960 --> 00:18:35,360 Speaker 4: And I spent all my time and energy on coaching 363 00:18:35,640 --> 00:18:37,920 Speaker 4: the way I would when I learned a musical instrument. 364 00:18:38,119 --> 00:18:40,240 Speaker 4: So when you have someone like Patrick Liddy, who's like 365 00:18:40,280 --> 00:18:44,399 Speaker 4: a very very famous driving instructor and driving driver for 366 00:18:44,640 --> 00:18:47,280 Speaker 4: all these different things coaching, he's my coach, and he's 367 00:18:47,320 --> 00:18:50,479 Speaker 4: sitting in there and going, Okay, you know, you're an 368 00:18:50,480 --> 00:18:53,320 Speaker 4: old guy that's that's had a sports car, but you 369 00:18:53,320 --> 00:18:55,520 Speaker 4: have no idea what you're doing. Now, let's start from 370 00:18:55,560 --> 00:18:58,600 Speaker 4: the beginning. Here's how you activate the throttle, and here's 371 00:18:58,640 --> 00:19:01,440 Speaker 4: how you activate the gas, and here's here's the raceline 372 00:19:01,440 --> 00:19:03,800 Speaker 4: we're looking for, and here's how to let the car 373 00:19:04,119 --> 00:19:07,119 Speaker 4: hit the apex. And I'm going like, that's kind of 374 00:19:07,200 --> 00:19:10,120 Speaker 4: similar to the way that you your airstream and your 375 00:19:10,160 --> 00:19:13,479 Speaker 4: support and your vision for playing jazz and and when 376 00:19:13,520 --> 00:19:16,520 Speaker 4: you're when you're on a stage with jazz musicians and 377 00:19:16,560 --> 00:19:19,320 Speaker 4: they're going crazy, it's kind of like being on the 378 00:19:20,040 --> 00:19:22,800 Speaker 4: in the car. You have to like be very meditative 379 00:19:22,880 --> 00:19:26,000 Speaker 4: and calm in and amongst all this insanity of the 380 00:19:26,000 --> 00:19:27,000 Speaker 4: engine and the speed. 381 00:19:27,920 --> 00:19:30,639 Speaker 2: That's amazing. Wow, by the way, I just looked up 382 00:19:30,720 --> 00:19:33,880 Speaker 2: so I remember fitting my a Dukati with velocity stacks. 383 00:19:33,920 --> 00:19:37,840 Speaker 2: They're also called trumpets, which is to help the air 384 00:19:37,880 --> 00:19:40,640 Speaker 2: and take smooth out before it gets into the cylinder. 385 00:19:40,640 --> 00:19:43,000 Speaker 2: So I think it's funny that the uh, you know, 386 00:19:43,480 --> 00:19:46,720 Speaker 2: I never really have thought about the connection between cars 387 00:19:46,760 --> 00:19:50,520 Speaker 2: and music before, but clearly there there is a strong one. 388 00:19:50,600 --> 00:19:52,919 Speaker 2: But you're talking about something different because you're obviously like 389 00:19:52,960 --> 00:19:56,120 Speaker 2: an obsessive, not in a bad way, but like you 390 00:19:56,200 --> 00:19:58,600 Speaker 2: get into something and you go headfirst into it. Right, 391 00:19:58,640 --> 00:20:01,960 Speaker 2: You've already got al place of the track, multiple cars 392 00:20:02,000 --> 00:20:06,880 Speaker 2: and a super famous coach. Do you do you ever 393 00:20:06,920 --> 00:20:09,159 Speaker 2: fall into other things like that or is it just like, 394 00:20:09,280 --> 00:20:11,600 Speaker 2: is this the first thing since play the trumpet that's 395 00:20:12,040 --> 00:20:12,680 Speaker 2: sucked you in? 396 00:20:12,800 --> 00:20:16,440 Speaker 4: Well, I mean, I guess maybe twenty years ago. I 397 00:20:16,520 --> 00:20:18,320 Speaker 4: did the same twenty five years ago, and I still 398 00:20:18,440 --> 00:20:21,720 Speaker 4: am deep into it. I do a real intense yoga 399 00:20:21,760 --> 00:20:24,040 Speaker 4: practice and I do it every day with my teacher. 400 00:20:24,119 --> 00:20:28,080 Speaker 4: I'm very committed to that. But nothing has got my 401 00:20:28,920 --> 00:20:33,760 Speaker 4: escape valve working like cars and the sound of cars 402 00:20:33,840 --> 00:20:38,520 Speaker 4: and the way that that whole community is so radically 403 00:20:38,600 --> 00:20:42,480 Speaker 4: different than music, and it's been so refreshing. But I 404 00:20:42,560 --> 00:20:45,359 Speaker 4: remember for that first you know, few months, like on 405 00:20:45,400 --> 00:20:47,920 Speaker 4: the tour bus, I would just listen to different reviews 406 00:20:47,960 --> 00:20:49,960 Speaker 4: of cars, but I just listened to the sound of 407 00:20:49,960 --> 00:20:53,360 Speaker 4: the engine, the note of the different the different brands 408 00:20:53,359 --> 00:20:56,720 Speaker 4: of the cars, and how it was just so meditati. 409 00:20:56,720 --> 00:20:58,640 Speaker 4: I mean, we'd be in a ten hour bus ride 410 00:20:58,640 --> 00:21:00,679 Speaker 4: somewhere and you know, three of it hours I'd be 411 00:21:00,680 --> 00:21:03,560 Speaker 4: listening to car reviews, and so I could just listen 412 00:21:03,600 --> 00:21:06,560 Speaker 4: to that beautiful engine and it was an escape pouve 413 00:21:06,680 --> 00:21:09,679 Speaker 4: for me from all the craziness of the world or 414 00:21:09,680 --> 00:21:12,399 Speaker 4: my touring schedule or what I have to think about, 415 00:21:12,480 --> 00:21:16,400 Speaker 4: like please no more trumpet, you know, like I can 416 00:21:16,440 --> 00:21:18,800 Speaker 4: only practice that thing so many hours a day and 417 00:21:18,840 --> 00:21:22,440 Speaker 4: be obsessed with that, and this has been an incredible journey. 418 00:21:22,480 --> 00:21:26,240 Speaker 4: And they're so very, very similar because the detail, the 419 00:21:26,320 --> 00:21:28,199 Speaker 4: detail you have to have to be on track or 420 00:21:28,200 --> 00:21:31,200 Speaker 4: to like pay attention driving, you know, the way your 421 00:21:31,359 --> 00:21:33,960 Speaker 4: vision has to be up, the way you have to like, 422 00:21:34,400 --> 00:21:37,280 Speaker 4: you know, I don't know what kind of cars do 423 00:21:37,280 --> 00:21:38,520 Speaker 4: you like? Do you want to go to a race car, 424 00:21:38,560 --> 00:21:39,959 Speaker 4: Do you want to stay in Porsche? Do you want 425 00:21:39,960 --> 00:21:42,919 Speaker 4: to let a little bit all the very detailed things, 426 00:21:43,359 --> 00:21:45,399 Speaker 4: And then you've got to find a find, you know, 427 00:21:46,240 --> 00:21:48,720 Speaker 4: a favorite brand of car, and then and then they 428 00:21:48,800 --> 00:21:51,960 Speaker 4: all seeing you know, truth is that you just motor 429 00:21:52,000 --> 00:21:56,119 Speaker 4: through tires, which I didn't know anything about. So anyhow, 430 00:21:56,119 --> 00:21:57,120 Speaker 4: I'm learning along the way. 431 00:21:57,400 --> 00:21:59,680 Speaker 1: You know, it's so interesting, Chris to hear you talk 432 00:21:59,680 --> 00:22:04,439 Speaker 1: about out remaining centered and calm and in control and 433 00:22:04,680 --> 00:22:07,520 Speaker 1: very self possessed in the middle of chaos, and how 434 00:22:07,560 --> 00:22:10,359 Speaker 1: you talk about that in music and in cars. And 435 00:22:10,400 --> 00:22:13,120 Speaker 1: I've observed that in you. You know, when I saw 436 00:22:13,119 --> 00:22:16,280 Speaker 1: you in La perform earlier this year, I was astounded. 437 00:22:16,359 --> 00:22:19,240 Speaker 1: I remember thinking, how does he keep track of where 438 00:22:19,280 --> 00:22:22,600 Speaker 1: he is in the middle of all of this? And 439 00:22:22,640 --> 00:22:26,679 Speaker 1: I'm curious, was there anything you had to unlearn that 440 00:22:27,680 --> 00:22:31,639 Speaker 1: in your driving that Patrick is telling you, you're you 441 00:22:31,720 --> 00:22:35,160 Speaker 1: need to unlearn this behavior because it's actually not serving 442 00:22:35,200 --> 00:22:36,359 Speaker 1: you when you're driving. 443 00:22:37,440 --> 00:22:41,560 Speaker 4: Yeah. So, so my daily practice since I'm seven. You know, 444 00:22:41,680 --> 00:22:44,760 Speaker 4: on trumpet, you spend the first forty five minutes of 445 00:22:45,160 --> 00:22:47,600 Speaker 4: your practice session and if I practice, say four hours 446 00:22:47,640 --> 00:22:51,760 Speaker 4: in a day. Uh, you know, it's like a long, steady, 447 00:22:52,320 --> 00:22:56,560 Speaker 4: long tones getting the air moving to and it's to 448 00:22:56,680 --> 00:22:58,679 Speaker 4: get And I guess the most difficult thing is to 449 00:22:58,760 --> 00:23:03,080 Speaker 4: learn how breaking is such a vital part and how 450 00:23:03,119 --> 00:23:07,359 Speaker 4: you trail break and then you you have to release 451 00:23:07,720 --> 00:23:09,600 Speaker 4: the throat and squeeze back, you know, all of that 452 00:23:09,640 --> 00:23:12,040 Speaker 4: where instead of instead of going to Patrick, I got 453 00:23:12,040 --> 00:23:14,359 Speaker 4: this the way you do in the trumpet, you have 454 00:23:14,440 --> 00:23:16,680 Speaker 4: to you have to back up and be that seven 455 00:23:16,720 --> 00:23:19,200 Speaker 4: year old kid playing the trumpet again with the long 456 00:23:19,240 --> 00:23:22,880 Speaker 4: tones and Patrick reeg hold on a second, Chris, Now 457 00:23:23,080 --> 00:23:26,080 Speaker 4: let's go smooth as fast. So let's do a few 458 00:23:26,600 --> 00:23:29,680 Speaker 4: things and follow this line smoothly. Don't say I got 459 00:23:29,680 --> 00:23:32,760 Speaker 4: this because you don't got it, you know, and that 460 00:23:33,119 --> 00:23:36,879 Speaker 4: so so we begin again. It's that sort of thing, uh, 461 00:23:37,040 --> 00:23:39,320 Speaker 4: that you learn all the time. And all the guys 462 00:23:39,359 --> 00:23:43,359 Speaker 4: down at Thermal that are really excellent drivers, you know, 463 00:23:43,400 --> 00:23:45,439 Speaker 4: they're just like saying, do whatever you want to do, 464 00:23:45,760 --> 00:23:47,480 Speaker 4: but don't ever walk out on the track and say 465 00:23:47,480 --> 00:23:49,359 Speaker 4: I got this. Go out on the track. Always with 466 00:23:49,440 --> 00:23:52,600 Speaker 4: a coach for the first few months, you know, make 467 00:23:52,640 --> 00:23:55,199 Speaker 4: sure you have. If you're racing, you're out driving on 468 00:23:55,240 --> 00:23:58,080 Speaker 4: the track three or four days, make sure three of 469 00:23:58,119 --> 00:24:01,639 Speaker 4: them are with Patrick, and okay, cool. I've just listened 470 00:24:01,680 --> 00:24:04,720 Speaker 4: and took, you know, and tried to take my cues 471 00:24:04,760 --> 00:24:07,560 Speaker 4: from that and it and it's like learning trumpet all 472 00:24:07,640 --> 00:24:10,960 Speaker 4: over again, but at least it's something bright and shiny 473 00:24:11,000 --> 00:24:13,720 Speaker 4: in my mind, and I just the sounds are epic. 474 00:24:13,720 --> 00:24:17,080 Speaker 4: And I live right on the straightaway of Thermal, so 475 00:24:17,800 --> 00:24:20,919 Speaker 4: you know you're you're woken every morning. Well I'm up anyhow, 476 00:24:20,960 --> 00:24:23,919 Speaker 4: but I mean after I race, if I go up 477 00:24:23,920 --> 00:24:26,000 Speaker 4: to my place and I'm practicing trumpet and I hear 478 00:24:26,040 --> 00:24:28,720 Speaker 4: those you know, a cup car swooshing buy or whatever, 479 00:24:29,040 --> 00:24:32,840 Speaker 4: it's music to me to hear the way that that, 480 00:24:33,240 --> 00:24:35,520 Speaker 4: you know, the car drifts off into the distance, because 481 00:24:35,560 --> 00:24:38,639 Speaker 4: it's not like you're watching a NASCAR at Thermal. You know, 482 00:24:38,680 --> 00:24:41,200 Speaker 4: there's there's one or two cars on the track at once, 483 00:24:41,480 --> 00:24:43,680 Speaker 4: you know, so it's got this lilt to it's got 484 00:24:43,680 --> 00:24:46,280 Speaker 4: this it's almost, you know, like an art piece with 485 00:24:46,480 --> 00:24:47,800 Speaker 4: noise out in front of your window. 486 00:24:47,880 --> 00:24:50,200 Speaker 2: So so cool, Chris, can you explain a lot of 487 00:24:50,200 --> 00:24:53,239 Speaker 2: people don't know what Thermal is and don't know how 488 00:24:53,320 --> 00:24:56,040 Speaker 2: it's set up. Obviously it's a track and I guess 489 00:24:56,240 --> 00:24:58,840 Speaker 2: you can somehow sleep there. Do you have a condo there? 490 00:24:58,920 --> 00:25:01,399 Speaker 2: Do you have a garager? You keep explain, explain to 491 00:25:01,440 --> 00:25:03,720 Speaker 2: everybody what it is because we hear about it so much, 492 00:25:03,720 --> 00:25:05,840 Speaker 2: and I've never had anyone actually sit down and tell 493 00:25:05,880 --> 00:25:08,359 Speaker 2: me exactly, like what the layout is like is the 494 00:25:08,400 --> 00:25:09,960 Speaker 2: club you join? Like, what's the story with that? 495 00:25:10,160 --> 00:25:13,600 Speaker 4: Right, it's a non advertised like they don't it's all 496 00:25:13,760 --> 00:25:16,280 Speaker 4: word of mouth. Now Indy does a race there. It's 497 00:25:16,359 --> 00:25:21,560 Speaker 4: home of Lamborghini. BMW has their BMW Experience Track. It's 498 00:25:21,600 --> 00:25:27,080 Speaker 4: a property located about fifteen miles south or east somewhere 499 00:25:27,119 --> 00:25:30,719 Speaker 4: close to Palm Springs, California, And it's the only club 500 00:25:30,800 --> 00:25:35,880 Speaker 4: that's currently open in the world that it's a member's 501 00:25:36,000 --> 00:25:40,080 Speaker 4: only racetrack. It would be like the high end equivalent 502 00:25:40,200 --> 00:25:43,960 Speaker 4: of a golf club, which there are many in Palm Springs, 503 00:25:44,480 --> 00:25:47,160 Speaker 4: but it's a big thank you, no thank you to golf. 504 00:25:47,520 --> 00:25:51,719 Speaker 4: And it's just about racing cars.

But I got my GT four RS and 641 00:33:12,360 --> 00:33:15,479 Speaker 4: it was awesome, and so that's my main kind of 642 00:33:15,520 --> 00:33:19,640 Speaker 4: track thing.

Yet wait another year, get more, get more 664 00:34:31,640 --> 00:34:34,479 Speaker 4: groove and on the GT four RS and confident, don't 665 00:34:34,560 --> 00:34:37,160 Speaker 4: use a cheat code yet, because that is a cheat code. 666 00:34:37,200 --> 00:34:39,040 Speaker 4: The GT three RS with slicks on the track you 667 00:34:39,080 --> 00:34:42,120 Speaker 4: can okay, so you're better, but you're getting too many aids. 668 00:34:42,320 --> 00:34:44,719 Speaker 4: Learn how to drive better, and so that car is 669 00:34:44,719 --> 00:34:47,600 Speaker 4: going to be candy for a while. And then I 670 00:34:47,880 --> 00:34:51,759 Speaker 4: got kind of hooked and crazed into McLaren's. So I 671 00:34:51,920 --> 00:34:54,880 Speaker 4: have just took possession of a new seven fifty s. 672 00:34:54,920 --> 00:34:56,719 Speaker 4: I had a seven to twenty s. So I got 673 00:34:56,719 --> 00:34:58,719 Speaker 4: a seven to fifty s. 674 00:34:58,200 --> 00:35:02,440 Speaker 3: And then I think, yes, yeah, the green beautiful. 675 00:35:02,280 --> 00:35:06,439 Speaker 4: And then then the drug that's to be delivered, which 676 00:35:06,440 --> 00:35:09,680 Speaker 4: I think I'm getting one of, if not the last 677 00:35:10,200 --> 00:35:15,759 Speaker 4: Lambeau STO and Patrick took me out on a hot 678 00:35:15,840 --> 00:35:20,680 Speaker 4: lap in an STO, and the theater of it just whoa. 679 00:35:20,960 --> 00:35:23,319 Speaker 4: I mean since that thing, that original thing with the 680 00:35:23,360 --> 00:35:26,480 Speaker 4: GT four or S, I haven't felt like that kind 681 00:35:26,520 --> 00:35:28,640 Speaker 4: of theater without being in a race car. When he 682 00:35:28,680 --> 00:35:30,399 Speaker 4: took me in the four a Day Challenge, yeah, well 683 00:35:30,400 --> 00:35:33,080 Speaker 4: that's incredible, But I'm not ready to suit up and 684 00:35:33,400 --> 00:35:36,800 Speaker 4: do a race car yet. So so so the STO 685 00:35:36,920 --> 00:35:39,359 Speaker 4: is coming in about a month and a half, and 686 00:35:39,400 --> 00:35:40,680 Speaker 4: so I'm excited for that. 687 00:35:41,280 --> 00:35:45,760 Speaker 2: Yeah, that's I mean, when we ask exotic car company 688 00:35:45,800 --> 00:35:48,560 Speaker 2: executives to give us a list of the cars that 689 00:35:48,560 --> 00:35:50,319 Speaker 2: they would like to have in their garage, they list 690 00:35:50,680 --> 00:35:56,239 Speaker 2: inevitably the STO, which I haven't personally driven yet, but 691 00:35:56,280 --> 00:35:59,279 Speaker 2: that's one to drool over for sure, do you. 692 00:35:59,560 --> 00:36:02,520 Speaker 4: It's just so it's so beautiful. I mean I think that. 693 00:36:02,920 --> 00:36:07,440 Speaker 4: I mean, it's bonkers crazy, but it looks so exotic 694 00:36:07,560 --> 00:36:11,200 Speaker 4: and I just love it. And I got to drive one. Obviously. 695 00:36:11,280 --> 00:36:13,759 Speaker 4: Patrick drove me first. He drove me back to back. 696 00:36:13,760 --> 00:36:16,280 Speaker 4: He drove me in the GT three RS on the track, 697 00:36:16,360 --> 00:36:19,280 Speaker 4: and then we went hop right into the brand new STO. 698 00:36:20,360 --> 00:36:24,000 Speaker 4: And I mean, I'm not sure even which one is faster, 699 00:36:24,680 --> 00:36:28,640 Speaker 4: but the sensation that the theater of, like you know, 700 00:36:29,080 --> 00:36:31,960 Speaker 4: turning it on and just having the Italian supermodel screen 701 00:36:32,000 --> 00:36:33,240 Speaker 4: at you was really cool. 702 00:36:33,800 --> 00:36:37,080 Speaker 2: Yeah. I mean, if you so, you've had your flat 703 00:36:37,160 --> 00:36:43,200 Speaker 2: sixes and then V eights and that's V ten. So 704 00:36:43,840 --> 00:36:45,960 Speaker 2: is there a difference do you notice in sound that 705 00:36:46,000 --> 00:36:48,160 Speaker 2: you prefer one or the other. When I was a kid, 706 00:36:48,200 --> 00:36:52,800 Speaker 2: I had this CD of various engine you know, setups, 707 00:36:52,840 --> 00:36:55,799 Speaker 2: and I would always try and be able to recognize, 708 00:36:55,840 --> 00:36:58,520 Speaker 2: you know, a V twelve versus an inline six, and 709 00:36:59,000 --> 00:37:01,880 Speaker 2: is there one that you prefer, you know, as a musician. 710 00:37:02,840 --> 00:37:05,359 Speaker 4: So, I mean, first of all, there's a really big 711 00:37:05,400 --> 00:37:08,640 Speaker 4: difference between if anyone's checking out the McLaren seven to 712 00:37:08,680 --> 00:37:11,080 Speaker 4: twenty and they're thinking about hopping into seven point fifty, 713 00:37:11,680 --> 00:37:16,960 Speaker 4: do it because the exhaust is radically different. I'm really 714 00:37:17,000 --> 00:37:20,840 Speaker 4: loving it now. My friend as a Ferrari A twelve 715 00:37:20,880 --> 00:37:24,319 Speaker 4: super Fast, which I'm going like, oh, oh, it's great. 716 00:37:25,360 --> 00:37:28,520 Speaker 4: So then the GT three rs I put an exhaust 717 00:37:28,560 --> 00:37:30,840 Speaker 4: and our one Motorsports exhaust on it, so it sounds 718 00:37:30,880 --> 00:37:34,640 Speaker 4: almost like an F one. I have a feeling. I 719 00:37:34,680 --> 00:37:37,160 Speaker 4: have a feeling after being in that V ten and 720 00:37:37,239 --> 00:37:42,200 Speaker 4: test driving the STO, I'm really gonna love that V ten. 721 00:37:43,280 --> 00:37:46,680 Speaker 4: I think that that sound to me sounds really really cool. 722 00:37:47,440 --> 00:37:49,879 Speaker 4: Of the cars that I own. The only other thing 723 00:37:49,920 --> 00:37:54,799 Speaker 4: that I've heard my friend that you met, Hannah Michelle, 724 00:37:54,960 --> 00:37:58,320 Speaker 4: she is an eight twelve super Fast and that engine 725 00:37:58,480 --> 00:38:02,319 Speaker 4: sounds pretty darn musical to me, you know, so, but 726 00:38:02,520 --> 00:38:04,840 Speaker 4: they all sound musical for a different reason. You know. 727 00:38:04,920 --> 00:38:06,800 Speaker 4: It's kind of like, you know, do you want to 728 00:38:06,800 --> 00:38:11,600 Speaker 4: play a bebop song, a rock song? You know thet Furrs. 729 00:38:11,680 --> 00:38:13,479 Speaker 4: When I take it out on the track, I'm just like, wow, 730 00:38:13,520 --> 00:38:15,720 Speaker 4: this still sounds amazing to dreams. 731 00:38:15,800 --> 00:38:18,480 Speaker 2: The reason I thought of it is because, I mean, 732 00:38:18,520 --> 00:38:23,360 Speaker 2: you have I don't know what ten or eleven studio albums, 733 00:38:23,920 --> 00:38:27,960 Speaker 2: and I was looking at your listings and thinking, I 734 00:38:27,960 --> 00:38:30,040 Speaker 2: wonder if he ever put a thought about putting an 735 00:38:30,080 --> 00:38:33,120 Speaker 2: engine in a song, because you know, Eddie van Halen 736 00:38:33,200 --> 00:38:37,880 Speaker 2: famously used his Lamborghini Mura at the beginning of Panama. 737 00:38:38,160 --> 00:38:39,000 Speaker 4: Oh that's awesome. 738 00:38:39,120 --> 00:38:41,320 Speaker 2: Yeah, and he just like backed it into the studio 739 00:38:41,440 --> 00:38:42,440 Speaker 2: and just cranked it up. 740 00:38:42,920 --> 00:38:45,080 Speaker 4: Oh that's so cool. I got to work with him once. 741 00:38:45,160 --> 00:38:51,240 Speaker 4: He was very nice. 742 00:38:53,400 --> 00:38:55,839 Speaker 2: You mentioned singer by the way, I went and saw 743 00:38:55,840 --> 00:39:00,120 Speaker 2: a singer downtown yesterday. I'd never you know, besides on 744 00:39:00,160 --> 00:39:02,439 Speaker 2: the internet scene and been able to touch and sit 745 00:39:02,480 --> 00:39:06,520 Speaker 2: in And what a gorgeous vehicle. That is something totally different, 746 00:39:06,560 --> 00:39:08,680 Speaker 2: that's not something that you'd necessarily want to take on 747 00:39:08,719 --> 00:39:11,160 Speaker 2: the track, more of a daily driver. But you ever 748 00:39:11,280 --> 00:39:12,760 Speaker 2: ever look at those cars? 749 00:39:14,400 --> 00:39:16,640 Speaker 4: Well, my friend Michelle, that got me into this whole 750 00:39:16,680 --> 00:39:21,200 Speaker 4: nonsense from the beginning is the head marketing person. I'm 751 00:39:21,239 --> 00:39:26,839 Speaker 4: sure she greeted you at Singer in California. You know, 752 00:39:27,360 --> 00:39:33,080 Speaker 4: I don't know if they're beautiful, they're bespoke, they're incredible. 753 00:39:33,400 --> 00:39:37,160 Speaker 4: I just for me, I'm not sure if I'm gonna 754 00:39:37,200 --> 00:39:40,799 Speaker 4: like lay out a million and a half dollars if 755 00:39:40,800 --> 00:39:42,879 Speaker 4: I would rather have three or four. 756 00:39:43,320 --> 00:39:44,360 Speaker 3: You can get a lot of cars. 757 00:39:44,760 --> 00:39:48,600 Speaker 4: So yeah, and that I would feel like driving if 758 00:39:48,600 --> 00:39:51,080 Speaker 4: something ever happened to it. It was like, okay, well, 759 00:39:51,239 --> 00:39:54,680 Speaker 4: insurance or something would cover when you start getting into 760 00:39:54,680 --> 00:39:59,520 Speaker 4: that world of going out with a PEGANI or or 761 00:39:59,560 --> 00:40:01,719 Speaker 4: a singer or something like that, and if something happens, 762 00:40:02,120 --> 00:40:06,359 Speaker 4: I might feel just too insecure.

It's look, if 778 00:41:01,560 --> 00:41:04,479 Speaker 5: it was the marketplace to marketplace and we just said here, 779 00:41:04,520 --> 00:41:06,600 Speaker 5: we're going to like start the EV, I would be 780 00:41:06,680 --> 00:41:08,040 Speaker 5: all down for it. 781 00:41:08,640 --> 00:41:14,239 Speaker 4: But what I'm anti EV about is governments imposing on 782 00:41:14,360 --> 00:41:16,480 Speaker 4: business people. It would be like somebody coming to me 783 00:41:16,520 --> 00:41:20,160 Speaker 4: and saying, hey, Chris, we really like your your concert, 784 00:41:20,200 --> 00:41:21,920 Speaker 4: but we're going to take out the key of F 785 00:41:22,800 --> 00:41:24,719 Speaker 4: for you.

Like so, I think that 791 00:41:35,840 --> 00:41:41,280 Speaker 4: evs have have hindered the ability for combustion engine cars 792 00:41:41,880 --> 00:41:47,200 Speaker 4: to go forward rapidly, like to make progress, because they 793 00:41:47,200 --> 00:41:49,640 Speaker 4: don't know what the landscape is like, you know, like 794 00:41:49,719 --> 00:41:53,239 Speaker 4: Ferrari and Porsche and McLaren and what's gonna happen. What 795 00:41:53,320 --> 00:41:57,640 Speaker 4: are these governments? Why is government involved in this thing? 796 00:41:58,160 --> 00:42:02,960 Speaker 4: And it's my personal opinion, obviously I'm in the minority, 797 00:42:03,320 --> 00:42:06,600 Speaker 4: but I just don't think pet I just don't think 798 00:42:06,640 --> 00:42:10,880 Speaker 4: petrol cars that are made by Porsia, McLaren, Lamborghini and 799 00:42:11,000 --> 00:42:15,600 Speaker 4: Ferrari are are are hurting the world as much as 800 00:42:15,680 --> 00:42:18,960 Speaker 4: the fact that it's called global warming and China and 801 00:42:19,040 --> 00:42:23,080 Speaker 4: India are not playing by global warming conditions. 802 00:42:23,160 --> 00:42:25,359 Speaker 2: I don't want to so I don't want to stoke 803 00:42:25,400 --> 00:42:29,799 Speaker 2: the fire, Chris, but consider the fact that those subsidies 804 00:42:29,840 --> 00:42:33,080 Speaker 2: that the government is paying out to support the EV 805 00:42:33,200 --> 00:42:38,200 Speaker 2: industry are being financed with our tax dollars. 806 00:42:39,440 --> 00:42:44,480 Speaker 4: And they're not You have a whole mess of people 807 00:42:45,320 --> 00:42:47,920 Speaker 4: that look at if I said to you, hey, I 808 00:42:47,960 --> 00:42:50,880 Speaker 4: have a two thousand and eight iPhone, I'm going to 809 00:42:50,960 --> 00:42:52,440 Speaker 4: sell it to you for one hundred bucks, You'd be like, 810 00:42:52,440 --> 00:42:53,880 Speaker 4: are you crazy? I'd to one of two thousand and 811 00:42:53,920 --> 00:42:57,600 Speaker 4: eight iPhone. So that subsequently, that's why the EV markets. 812 00:42:57,920 --> 00:43:00,120 Speaker 4: You know, if you've bought a Porsche tie Ca and 813 00:43:00,239 --> 00:43:03,440 Speaker 4: turbos for two twenty five and now it's worth eighty 814 00:43:03,840 --> 00:43:07,080 Speaker 4: three years later, and so it takes away the whole 815 00:43:07,400 --> 00:43:12,879 Speaker 4: enthusiast thing of oh my goodness, you have a nine 816 00:43:12,920 --> 00:43:16,520 Speaker 4: to eleven R dude, that's rocking. You know that whole 817 00:43:16,520 --> 00:43:20,319 Speaker 4: thing's going to be gone with EVS.

I want meditation, I want 824 00:43:41,520 --> 00:43:44,920 Speaker 4: to drive on the track, so I'm not driving commuting 825 00:43:44,920 --> 00:43:47,160 Speaker 4: to work. I get it if you're if you live 826 00:43:47,200 --> 00:43:49,120 Speaker 4: in a metropolitan city and you want to go point 827 00:43:49,160 --> 00:43:52,719 Speaker 4: A to B, sure, I guess. But for me, I 828 00:43:52,800 --> 00:43:55,279 Speaker 4: need to hear a sound of an engine. And the 829 00:43:55,440 --> 00:43:58,239 Speaker 4: last thing I want is teching a car. And I 830 00:43:58,320 --> 00:44:00,759 Speaker 4: heard that Ferrari. You guys can tell me. I heard 831 00:44:00,800 --> 00:44:05,040 Speaker 4: Ferrari is going to do away with like radio and 832 00:44:05,160 --> 00:44:08,080 Speaker 4: navigations in the car. And just like Apple car play 833 00:44:09,000 --> 00:44:10,879 Speaker 4: is your thing, it's just gonna have a hookup for that. 834 00:44:11,080 --> 00:44:13,319 Speaker 4: And I think that would be just awesome, you know, 835 00:44:13,400 --> 00:44:15,600 Speaker 4: like when I get in my GT when I get in, 836 00:44:15,760 --> 00:44:19,120 Speaker 4: when I get in my GT four, Caman, there's nothing 837 00:44:19,160 --> 00:44:22,680 Speaker 4: in it. It's just it's just a yeah. I just 838 00:44:22,920 --> 00:44:25,960 Speaker 4: love it. I don't think I want to analog everything, 839 00:44:26,000 --> 00:44:26,840 Speaker 4: analog everything. 840 00:44:26,880 --> 00:44:29,239 Speaker 2: I don't think Ferrari is going to do that. They 841 00:44:29,960 --> 00:44:32,520 Speaker 2: can't do that. Maybe on some special edition. 842 00:44:33,360 --> 00:44:36,000 Speaker 4: They're just gonna get away with no more NAB because 843 00:44:36,680 --> 00:44:39,920 Speaker 4: your NAB comes all from your phone, right, but I 844 00:44:40,000 --> 00:44:41,959 Speaker 4: no more radio from your phone. 845 00:44:42,000 --> 00:44:44,560 Speaker 2: We'll ask, and I will ask. I think I think 846 00:44:44,640 --> 00:44:48,040 Speaker 2: they can't, and I will say, by the way, that 847 00:44:48,120 --> 00:44:51,759 Speaker 2: doesn't always work that well. I got a Challenger a 848 00:44:51,800 --> 00:44:53,600 Speaker 2: couple of years ago and they said, do you want 849 00:44:53,600 --> 00:44:55,520 Speaker 2: to have a navigation system built in? And I said no, 850 00:44:55,600 --> 00:44:58,839 Speaker 2: Why I always used to want to, But there are 851 00:44:59,000 --> 00:45:01,560 Speaker 2: times if you don't have it that you're gonna need it. 852 00:45:01,840 --> 00:45:05,000 Speaker 4: But by eliminating it, it makes the car timeless. 853 00:45:05,080 --> 00:45:07,759 Speaker 2: No, I agree one hundred. I agree with that one percent. 854 00:45:07,880 --> 00:45:12,200 Speaker 4: You're just always plugging in and your time is inserted 855 00:45:12,200 --> 00:45:14,320 Speaker 4: by your phone, because in ten years is gonna be different. 856 00:45:14,320 --> 00:45:16,759 Speaker 2: No, if it's not, if it's not your daily driver, 857 00:45:16,920 --> 00:45:19,400 Speaker 2: if it's a special thing that you bought for your passion, 858 00:45:20,040 --> 00:45:23,080 Speaker 2: a work of art, something that you because you are 859 00:45:23,719 --> 00:45:25,920 Speaker 2: to drive. Then I would love to have a car 860 00:45:26,000 --> 00:45:30,920 Speaker 2: that has no uh navigation, no screen, no nothing in it, 861 00:45:31,040 --> 00:45:31,560 Speaker 2: you know, I mean. 862 00:45:31,560 --> 00:45:33,640 Speaker 3: Miles and buttons and knobs. 863 00:45:33,520 --> 00:45:35,360 Speaker 4: And that, and you know, one of the one of 864 00:45:35,360 --> 00:45:38,440 Speaker 4: the main like the lovely people at McLaren and I 865 00:45:38,480 --> 00:45:41,640 Speaker 4: love Ferraris too, but the lovely people at McLaren sent 866 00:45:41,719 --> 00:45:44,160 Speaker 4: me a seven point fifty to try out and I 867 00:45:44,200 --> 00:45:46,799 Speaker 4: loved it. And that very same week I drove the 868 00:45:46,840 --> 00:45:52,239 Speaker 4: two ninety six Ferrari and just sit like, first of all, 869 00:45:52,239 --> 00:45:54,239 Speaker 4: you're sitting on that with the steering wheel and there's 870 00:45:54,280 --> 00:45:57,040 Speaker 4: so many controls on the steering wheel that you can 871 00:45:57,080 --> 00:45:58,680 Speaker 4: accidentally hit or something like that. 872 00:45:58,840 --> 00:46:02,520 Speaker 2: I mean like, yeah, yeah. 873 00:46:02,440 --> 00:46:04,759 Speaker 3: I'm surprised to hear you say that. 874 00:46:06,360 --> 00:46:10,880 Speaker 1: Well, McLaren is sort of notorious for not having great tech, 875 00:46:11,400 --> 00:46:12,560 Speaker 1: you know, having issues. 876 00:46:12,640 --> 00:46:14,120 Speaker 4: No, the seven fifty died. 877 00:46:14,520 --> 00:46:16,239 Speaker 3: It's dialed in. This is good to hear. 878 00:46:16,400 --> 00:46:19,800 Speaker 4: Oh yeah, it's awesome. And the build quality is awesome. 879 00:46:20,040 --> 00:46:24,280 Speaker 4: And the sound of the engine is considerably more cracking 880 00:46:24,400 --> 00:46:28,239 Speaker 4: than the two ninety six, by the ways, and the 881 00:46:28,280 --> 00:46:31,200 Speaker 4: steering wheel, the steering wheel is plain. It's just al 882 00:46:31,239 --> 00:46:34,560 Speaker 4: kintara and and carbon fiber and no other buttons. 883 00:46:34,640 --> 00:46:36,759 Speaker 2: Nothing in a car like that. And I mean you're 884 00:46:36,800 --> 00:46:39,000 Speaker 2: listening to music all day. You're playing music all day? 885 00:46:39,239 --> 00:46:39,359 Speaker 4: Uh? 886 00:46:39,520 --> 00:46:41,120 Speaker 2: Do you just like to hear the sound of the 887 00:46:41,120 --> 00:46:43,200 Speaker 2: engine and not not turn on the stereo? 888 00:46:43,640 --> 00:46:47,160 Speaker 4: I never turn on anything. I mean, if it's like 889 00:46:47,200 --> 00:46:50,000 Speaker 4: a four hour drive, I might check or I might 890 00:46:50,239 --> 00:46:55,360 Speaker 4: maybe for a second, dial up a podcast for a second. 891 00:46:56,680 --> 00:46:58,880 Speaker 4: I don't really ever listen to music because you have 892 00:46:58,880 --> 00:47:02,080 Speaker 4: two different kinds of music. You don't listen to Beethoven 893 00:47:02,360 --> 00:47:04,520 Speaker 4: and rock music at the same time. And to me, 894 00:47:05,280 --> 00:47:07,920 Speaker 4: the sound of the engine is like Beethoven, my my Claren. 895 00:47:07,920 --> 00:47:10,040 Speaker 4: I can put the window down in the back and 896 00:47:10,120 --> 00:47:13,480 Speaker 4: keep the top up and hear that engine crack along. 897 00:47:13,560 --> 00:47:16,279 Speaker 4: And in I Porsche you can't really hear anything from 898 00:47:16,280 --> 00:47:20,800 Speaker 4: a radio, So it's either the demand engine or the 899 00:47:20,880 --> 00:47:22,760 Speaker 4: GT three eras you're less screwed? 900 00:47:23,000 --> 00:47:25,200 Speaker 1: Have you ever medy, are there any cars that stand 901 00:47:25,200 --> 00:47:28,720 Speaker 1: out that you thought that sounds terrible, that that engine 902 00:47:28,760 --> 00:47:29,520 Speaker 1: sounds terrible? 903 00:47:33,160 --> 00:47:37,960 Speaker 4: Boy, huh, I probably haven't.

I'm a German race 1060 00:55:17,840 --> 00:55:21,560 Speaker 4: car driver. Just to put it into perspective. My saxophonist 1061 00:55:21,560 --> 00:55:25,120 Speaker 4: who's like thirty, and you know, he said, great shape. 1062 00:55:25,280 --> 00:55:28,400 Speaker 4: I took him to the Porsche Experiences. Just we're in 1063 00:55:28,440 --> 00:55:31,400 Speaker 4: Tokyo day off, so when the German race car driver 1064 00:55:31,719 --> 00:55:34,359 Speaker 4: came in, we'd already spent the whole hour on the track. 1065 00:55:34,360 --> 00:55:36,320 Speaker 4: When the German guy comes over and says, would you 1066 00:55:36,360 --> 00:55:38,160 Speaker 4: guys like a hot lap? I said, Chad, would you 1067 00:55:38,239 --> 00:55:41,319 Speaker 4: like to go first? And Chad said yes, that'd be great. 1068 00:55:41,719 --> 00:55:43,919 Speaker 4: They came right back in after like two minutes. I said, 1069 00:55:43,920 --> 00:55:49,320 Speaker 4: what happened? Chad said, I'm out, no, no, no, I said, 1070 00:55:49,320 --> 00:55:52,719 Speaker 4: bring me in. So this guy was taking no prisoners. 1071 00:55:52,760 --> 00:55:55,920 Speaker 4: So I lasted two or three laps. That's what reworked 1072 00:55:55,920 --> 00:55:58,680 Speaker 4: my brain. So they don't do that at the Porsche Experience. 1073 00:55:58,920 --> 00:56:01,920 Speaker 2: That is a dude.

What are the kind of race cars 1165 00:59:47,920 --> 00:59:51,360 Speaker 2: that like the cool kids love, like Type B rally 1166 00:59:51,360 --> 00:59:52,120 Speaker 2: cars or whatever. 1167 00:59:52,320 --> 00:59:55,360 Speaker 1: Oh yeah, like the Lancy Adelta.

What are you doing this weekend? 1173 01:00:03,000 --> 01:00:06,200 Speaker 3: You know what? I don't know what I'm doing. 1174 01:00:06,360 --> 01:00:09,840 Speaker 2: Are you driving anything interesting? Right now? I'm driving giant 1175 01:00:09,960 --> 01:00:11,760 Speaker 2: New Infinity QX eighty. 1176 01:00:13,000 --> 01:00:14,680 Speaker 1: It's like, you know what, I'm going to get that 1177 01:00:14,760 --> 01:00:17,200 Speaker 1: for a polo match in like two weeks. 1178 01:00:17,240 --> 01:00:19,560 Speaker 2: So it must perfect because you could fit a few 1179 01:00:19,560 --> 01:00:22,080 Speaker 2: horses in the back. It is a land yacht. And 1180 01:00:22,120 --> 01:00:25,160 Speaker 2: I love the car seats fitting it. Yes, we're facing 1181 01:00:25,160 --> 01:00:31,280 Speaker 2: car seats fit. I love, you know, gigantic vehicles American, 1182 01:00:31,440 --> 01:00:33,840 Speaker 2: Well it's not American, but gigantic vehicles like this made 1183 01:00:33,880 --> 01:00:36,520 Speaker 2: for the American market just because you feel like you 1184 01:00:36,560 --> 01:00:39,640 Speaker 2: own the road. And but the I mean, I've only 1185 01:00:39,680 --> 01:00:42,480 Speaker 2: spent a day in it, so I'm gonna withhold judgment. Fine, 1186 01:00:42,520 --> 01:00:45,120 Speaker 2: the tech is a little bit it's like Windows versus Apple. 1187 01:00:45,160 --> 01:00:47,920 Speaker 2: The tech is a little bit Windows. It's like a 1188 01:00:48,480 --> 01:00:51,560 Speaker 2: computer nerd put together the layout and it's hard to understand. 1189 01:00:51,880 --> 01:00:53,800 Speaker 1: Will have to compare notes. 1190 01:00:53,520 --> 01:00:55,240 Speaker 2: Yeah, we will. It's kind of you know, it's it's 1191 01:00:55,280 --> 01:00:59,800 Speaker 2: like luxurious seating and leather, I guess, but it's not 1192 01:00:59,840 --> 01:01:02,920 Speaker 2: a V eight or anything more than that. So it's 1193 01:01:03,440 --> 01:01:05,360 Speaker 2: if you're gonna make a luxurious vehicle, don't you need 1194 01:01:05,400 --> 01:01:06,960 Speaker 2: to put at least eight cylinders into it? 1195 01:01:07,240 --> 01:01:12,800 Speaker 1: If it's an SUV, who cares? I mean, if it's 1196 01:01:12,880 --> 01:01:14,040 Speaker 1: like a family hauler. 1197 01:01:18,640 --> 01:01:23,080 Speaker 2: Yeah, you know, yes, Fulkswagen had that in the tour Egg. 1198 01:01:23,160 --> 01:01:26,560 Speaker 2: They had a Diesel V ten in that. 1199 01:01:26,560 --> 01:01:29,000 Speaker 1: In Germany probably I've seen them. 1200 01:01:28,840 --> 01:01:32,800 Speaker 2: Here in Bronxville. That was before diesels pretty much outlawed. 1201 01:01:32,840 --> 01:01:34,439 Speaker 3: That must have been a long time ago. 1202 01:01:35,520 --> 01:01:38,240 Speaker 2: But anyway, I'm testing that out. I'm gonna be testing out, 1203 01:01:38,400 --> 01:01:41,000 Speaker 2: uh a Lincoln soon, which I haven't driven a Lincoln 1204 01:01:41,040 --> 01:01:44,480 Speaker 2: in so many years. So but that's another uh, that's 1205 01:01:44,520 --> 01:01:47,520 Speaker 2: another company where they won't put a V eight you 1206 01:01:47,560 --> 01:01:51,680 Speaker 2: know why. I mean an Infinity won't put a V 1207 01:01:51,800 --> 01:01:56,080 Speaker 2: eight anymore, and uh, Toyota won't put a V eighth 1208 01:01:56,560 --> 01:01:58,640 Speaker 2: or Nissan won't put a V eight except for the 1209 01:01:58,720 --> 01:01:59,440 Speaker 2: you know, Godzilla. 1210 01:01:59,520 --> 01:02:02,680 Speaker 3: I feel like you're like comprising a blacklist. 1211 01:02:02,760 --> 01:02:06,960 Speaker 2: I feel like you're there's a there's a cabal of 1212 01:02:07,000 --> 01:02:11,040 Speaker 2: like global elders. There's a committee that's decided we're not 1213 01:02:11,040 --> 01:02:14,200 Speaker 2: allowed to have V eights in big trucks anymore. I 1214 01:02:14,240 --> 01:02:14,800 Speaker 2: don't know why. 1215 01:02:14,920 --> 01:02:16,920 Speaker 3: Illuminati, yeah cars. 1216 01:02:17,440 --> 01:02:19,320 Speaker 2: The same people that are the same people that are 1217 01:02:19,360 --> 01:02:20,560 Speaker 2: Pimp and e V's. You know. 1218 01:02:21,760 --> 01:02:25,320 Speaker 1: Back to Chris, I like that he says what he thinks, 1219 01:02:25,760 --> 01:02:28,160 Speaker 1: you know. I love that in people that they just 1220 01:02:28,360 --> 01:02:31,520 Speaker 1: say what they think and don't apologize for I will 1221 01:02:31,560 --> 01:02:33,720 Speaker 1: tell you I do have a bit of news coming 1222 01:02:33,720 --> 01:02:38,240 Speaker 1: out later today, which is that Christie's auction House has 1223 01:02:38,480 --> 01:02:43,920 Speaker 1: bought Gooding In Company, which is a surprise. I've I've 1224 01:02:43,960 --> 01:02:46,120 Speaker 1: already reached out to a bunch of people and this 1225 01:02:46,200 --> 01:02:48,480 Speaker 1: seems to sort of have come out of the blue. 1226 01:02:49,320 --> 01:02:51,560 Speaker 1: But the transaction is gonna close by the end of 1227 01:02:51,560 --> 01:02:54,360 Speaker 1: the year, and from what I'm hearing, I think it's 1228 01:02:54,400 --> 01:02:58,320 Speaker 1: really a good thing, because dude, the auction houses are 1229 01:02:58,360 --> 01:03:01,439 Speaker 1: just dealing with the glut of cars and there needed 1230 01:03:01,480 --> 01:03:02,440 Speaker 1: to be some consolidation. 1231 01:03:02,560 --> 01:03:04,640 Speaker 2: But wait, so when I think of the big car 1232 01:03:04,680 --> 01:03:08,320 Speaker 2: auctions that you go to, I think of Gooding, I 1233 01:03:08,360 --> 01:03:15,760 Speaker 2: think of Southey's, Southeby's exactly, Bottoms, Bottoms. Well, you're you're 1234 01:03:15,840 --> 01:03:16,640 Speaker 2: naming them all for me. 1235 01:03:16,720 --> 01:03:17,680 Speaker 3: You want me to keep going? 1236 01:03:17,760 --> 01:03:19,120 Speaker 2: What about Hagerty do they have? 1237 01:03:19,240 --> 01:03:21,320 Speaker 3: That's broad arrow, broad arrow. 1238 01:03:21,400 --> 01:03:23,120 Speaker 2: But I don't think if Christie's was going to be 1239 01:03:23,160 --> 01:03:24,800 Speaker 2: my point Eventually, well. 1240 01:03:24,680 --> 01:03:27,680 Speaker 1: You know, I think Christie's would like to move into 1241 01:03:27,920 --> 01:03:30,880 Speaker 1: the car space and what better way to do that 1242 01:03:31,480 --> 01:03:35,680 Speaker 1: then to simply buy an auction house already doing it. 1243 01:03:35,880 --> 01:03:38,680 Speaker 1: You know, that's a little bit what RM and Southereb's 1244 01:03:38,720 --> 01:03:44,200 Speaker 1: have done. So, you know, I think if it's the 1245 01:03:44,200 --> 01:03:48,280 Speaker 1: biggest deal that Christie's has done in the past few decades, 1246 01:03:48,320 --> 01:03:50,880 Speaker 1: which I think it is, you know, I'm guessing this 1247 01:03:51,000 --> 01:03:52,360 Speaker 1: is a nine figure deal. 1248 01:03:52,960 --> 01:03:55,280 Speaker 3: I can't I can't get and tell. 1249 01:03:55,200 --> 01:03:56,880 Speaker 1: On how much the deal is worth, but I think 1250 01:03:56,880 --> 01:04:00,160 Speaker 1: it's easily nine figures from what I hear from me. 1251 01:04:01,120 --> 01:04:04,000 Speaker 2: Probably the main auction I want to go to is Meekham. 1252 01:04:04,560 --> 01:04:06,360 Speaker 2: You know, I'm not surprised because I. 1253 01:04:06,640 --> 01:04:10,000 Speaker 3: Don't want to say not Barret Jackson, not. I know 1254 01:04:10,040 --> 01:04:10,760 Speaker 3: you love Craig. 1255 01:04:11,120 --> 01:04:13,640 Speaker 2: Barrett Jackson and Meekham are the ones that. 1256 01:04:13,560 --> 01:04:16,200 Speaker 3: I Are you going to go down the floor to sales? 1257 01:04:16,440 --> 01:04:18,720 Speaker 2: It would be a hell of a lot of fun. 1258 01:04:18,760 --> 01:04:20,919 Speaker 3: I think for me, I think it would. 1259 01:04:21,000 --> 01:04:24,680 Speaker 2: I would really like that. Uh and I would dress 1260 01:04:24,960 --> 01:04:28,880 Speaker 2: like an absolute clown to do that and bring it home. 1261 01:04:29,600 --> 01:04:32,360 Speaker 1: That is your happy place.
