10
00:00:33,479 --> 00:00:36,640
Speaker 1: think I don't sound like Madonna. There are some things

11
00:00:36,640 --> 00:00:38,640
Speaker 1: that are just out of my com darn all right,

12
00:00:38,680 --> 00:00:40,839
Speaker 1: that's fine, that's too bad. But yes, no, this is

13
00:00:40,840 --> 00:00:43,199
Speaker 1: why we're doing this podcast because I did want to

14
00:00:43,240 --> 00:00:46,519
Speaker 1: welcome you officially, Serena to our RAMS media team. Serena

00:00:46,640 --> 00:00:48,800
Speaker 1: is our new team reporter. You will see her face

16
00:00:48,920 --> 00:00:52,760
Speaker 1: alongside mine. I'm sorry about that, but on the Rams,

17
00:00:52,760 --> 00:00:55,240
Speaker 1: on the Rams dot Com, on our app, and then

18
00:00:55,360 --> 00:00:59,680
Speaker 1: on our TV shows and our other media platforms that yes,

19
00:00:59,720 --> 00:01:02,400
Speaker 1: there are a lot of them. Um but yeah, I mean,

20
00:01:02,520 --> 00:01:04,560
Speaker 1: like I, like I said, I just wanted everybody to

21
00:01:04,560 --> 00:01:06,880
Speaker 1: start to get to know you a little bit, including

22
00:01:06,920 --> 00:01:09,919
Speaker 1: myself since this is technically our second day working together.

23
00:01:09,959 --> 00:01:11,840
Speaker 1: I know this is insane. How has it been for

24
00:01:11,920 --> 00:01:14,960
Speaker 1: you working with me? Two days? It's been great? This

25
00:01:15,040 --> 00:01:18,120
Speaker 1: is what are we doing? Two truths in a lot? Now,

26
00:01:19,360 --> 00:01:23,120
Speaker 1: don't gee, don't mess up the entire rundown. Actually, it

27
00:01:23,200 --> 00:01:25,760
Speaker 1: just went from great to terrible, right because you're now

28
00:01:25,800 --> 00:01:30,040
Speaker 1: spoiling fooling the rules. Yeah, you're spoiling the rest of

29
00:01:30,040 --> 00:01:32,880
Speaker 1: the show now. But I guess we can just start

30
00:01:32,880 --> 00:01:35,560
Speaker 1: by doing like a weird interview thing. Just why don't

31
00:01:35,560 --> 00:01:38,000
Speaker 1: you tell the people a little bit about yourself? Oh

32
00:01:38,080 --> 00:01:42,119
Speaker 1: right then, Yes, I'm from the Bronx, New York born

33
00:01:42,120 --> 00:01:44,679
Speaker 1: and raised. Yeah, hughe Yankee fan. You will see my

34
00:01:44,720 --> 00:01:49,280
Speaker 1: tweets about the Yankees, hopefully often this year because they

35
00:01:49,280 --> 00:01:52,560
Speaker 1: will do so well, um, towards the end of the season,

36
00:01:52,680 --> 00:01:57,400
Speaker 1: so that'll be great. Um. I just finished working at ESPN,

37
00:01:57,520 --> 00:01:59,360
Speaker 1: so that was my most recent thing. You might have

38
00:01:59,360 --> 00:02:01,640
Speaker 1: seen me on Warts Center in the morning. A lot

39
00:02:01,640 --> 00:02:04,480
Speaker 1: of West Coast guys might not have noticed. I wasn't

40
00:02:04,520 --> 00:02:06,280
Speaker 1: I was gonna say that, but like, yeah, I was

41
00:02:06,320 --> 00:02:08,400
Speaker 1: gonna say that. He might not have seen her on

42
00:02:08,480 --> 00:02:11,440
Speaker 1: Sports and Her Ama because it was an AM show

43
00:02:11,680 --> 00:02:16,000
Speaker 1: right West Coast four am, East Coast seven am. Nonetheless,

44
00:02:16,040 --> 00:02:19,320
Speaker 1: I did wake up very early for that show, so yeah,

45
00:02:19,320 --> 00:02:22,880
Speaker 1: it was with ESPN. I also worked at National Geographic.

46
00:02:23,000 --> 00:02:25,720
Speaker 1: I was the secret person who would tweet things out

47
00:02:26,000 --> 00:02:31,080
Speaker 1: from the Nagio Wild accounts. Um. Prior to that, Syracuse

48
00:02:31,200 --> 00:02:34,960
Speaker 1: grad go Ques, go Orange. So never heard anybody say

49
00:02:34,960 --> 00:02:37,400
Speaker 1: go Ques. I just hear them say go orange. Oh yeah,

50
00:02:37,480 --> 00:02:39,840
Speaker 1: is that a thing? It's it's toasted thing. If I

51
00:02:40,000 --> 00:02:44,639
Speaker 1: say it, it's a thing. Um, all those listening will

52
00:02:44,720 --> 00:02:47,399
Speaker 1: totally be like, oh, good Orange fan right there. Yeah,

53
00:02:47,520 --> 00:02:50,240
Speaker 1: I'm sure. Um. And then yeah, and I love my

54
00:02:50,280 --> 00:02:53,720
Speaker 1: mother and my father and my Sister's great. That's good

55
00:02:53,720 --> 00:02:56,400
Speaker 1: to love family, isn't it. Yeah, I'm big fan of

56
00:02:56,440 --> 00:02:58,720
Speaker 1: the fan who are now all the way in New

57
00:02:58,800 --> 00:03:02,040
Speaker 1: York and waving me. Yeah. It's interesting, you know, living

58
00:03:02,080 --> 00:03:04,040
Speaker 1: three hours in the past from all the people that

59
00:03:04,160 --> 00:03:06,040
Speaker 1: you love and care about, which is the way I

60
00:03:06,040 --> 00:03:08,200
Speaker 1: always put it, because my family and a lot of

61
00:03:08,240 --> 00:03:10,560
Speaker 1: my friends are in the Eastern time zone. Because obviously

62
00:03:10,600 --> 00:03:12,880
Speaker 1: I went I'm from Cleveland, went to school in New

63
00:03:13,000 --> 00:03:15,480
Speaker 1: York and did all that, So like that, I think

64
00:03:15,520 --> 00:03:18,240
Speaker 1: has been probably the biggest adjustment We've been living on

65
00:03:18,280 --> 00:03:19,880
Speaker 1: the West coast, so that's something you have to look

66
00:03:19,880 --> 00:03:23,000
Speaker 1: forward to. I'm excited to watch games earlier always you

67
00:03:23,200 --> 00:03:27,519
Speaker 1: think you are, but I don't know, man, But it's tough.

68
00:03:27,560 --> 00:03:29,600
Speaker 1: Like there was a there was a Calves playoff game

69
00:03:29,800 --> 00:03:32,200
Speaker 1: last week, and go Calves. That's another reason why I'm

70
00:03:32,240 --> 00:03:37,960
Speaker 1: very happy to say, yes, that's funny, but yes, um no,

71
00:03:38,160 --> 00:03:40,520
Speaker 1: like you get playoff games sometimes it started three in

72
00:03:40,560 --> 00:03:43,080
Speaker 1: the afternoon, like on a weekday. It happened with Boston

73
00:03:43,240 --> 00:03:46,400
Speaker 1: and Philadelphia yesterday too, so like that's there are just

74
00:03:46,600 --> 00:03:49,400
Speaker 1: really weird little adjustments that you have to make when

75
00:03:49,400 --> 00:03:51,120
Speaker 1: you go from living on the East coast living on

76
00:03:51,160 --> 00:03:53,880
Speaker 1: the West coast. That's fair. And the traffic thing, but honestly,

77
00:03:53,880 --> 00:03:55,960
Speaker 1: it doesn't even bother me because I'm a podcast listener

78
00:03:56,000 --> 00:03:59,800
Speaker 1: obviously a fan of this podcast, so much appreciated of

79
00:04:00,000 --> 00:04:02,600
Speaker 1: I appreciate the traffic. Actually, I'll probably be the only

80
00:04:02,600 --> 00:04:05,120
Speaker 1: person that appreciates the traffic because now I have the

81
00:04:05,200 --> 00:04:08,640
Speaker 1: time to listen to a podcast. This is that's a

82
00:04:08,720 --> 00:04:11,200
Speaker 1: really weird way of putting but it's like, oh, when

83
00:04:11,240 --> 00:04:14,680
Speaker 1: I need to hyper focus on things, so I'm driving

84
00:04:14,800 --> 00:04:18,080
Speaker 1: I mean there's a multitasking experience when you drive a

85
00:04:18,120 --> 00:04:20,600
Speaker 1: car and listen to a podcast. But I can do

86
00:04:20,640 --> 00:04:24,440
Speaker 1: both of those things as I wipe my shoulders off, like, yeah,

87
00:04:24,480 --> 00:04:28,240
Speaker 1: I'm so impressive. Guys, can't wait for the season to start.

88
00:04:30,000 --> 00:04:32,440
Speaker 1: Matt's over there shaking his head. Oh, I don't know,

89
00:04:32,800 --> 00:04:35,000
Speaker 1: you haven't made fun of Miles yet, So that's true.

90
00:04:35,120 --> 00:04:40,680
Speaker 1: To Marco's somewhere listening along and to Marco spitting out insults,

91
00:04:40,760 --> 00:04:44,039
Speaker 1: which this was live. Yeah, and so we could pipe

92
00:04:44,080 --> 00:04:47,120
Speaker 1: de Marco no. Um. So I'm gonna ask you like

93
00:04:47,160 --> 00:04:51,680
Speaker 1: a few like kind of interviewee questions. Okay, first before yeah,

94
00:04:52,120 --> 00:04:55,680
Speaker 1: before we get into you know, more of the fun stuff,

95
00:04:55,720 --> 00:04:57,600
Speaker 1: but so that people get to know a little bit

96
00:04:57,640 --> 00:05:02,520
Speaker 1: more about you. But why was this job attractive? So

97
00:05:02,560 --> 00:05:06,880
Speaker 1: many reasons, um, like, in all honesty, like the rams,

98
00:05:07,160 --> 00:05:10,880
Speaker 1: I interviewed in a lot of different places before you know,

99
00:05:10,920 --> 00:05:14,400
Speaker 1: accepting this role. And you, guys, the way that this

100
00:05:14,520 --> 00:05:19,160
Speaker 1: organization runs, the way that you guys to pretty much everything.

101
00:05:19,200 --> 00:05:21,560
Speaker 1: I mean I walked into the office first day and

102
00:05:21,600 --> 00:05:24,800
Speaker 1: there was a dog and a baby and then they

103
00:05:24,800 --> 00:05:27,960
Speaker 1: had nothing to do with each other. That's the first

104
00:05:27,960 --> 00:05:31,120
Speaker 1: thing I think of no, um, it's a fun environment.

105
00:05:31,240 --> 00:05:35,640
Speaker 1: Like clearly everyone from them off to two miles here

106
00:05:35,640 --> 00:05:39,840
Speaker 1: to matt Over there to jury you know hersh everyone

107
00:05:39,960 --> 00:05:45,520
Speaker 1: here is so special and there's clearly such a special

108
00:05:45,600 --> 00:05:47,560
Speaker 1: environment about it. And then you know, you look at

109
00:05:47,640 --> 00:05:50,599
Speaker 1: McVeigh and Wade Phillips, who I'm so excited to meet

110
00:05:51,279 --> 00:05:53,039
Speaker 1: both of them. You know, just the way that the

111
00:05:53,120 --> 00:05:56,000
Speaker 1: team has improved, and it's all been, you know, a

112
00:05:56,000 --> 00:05:59,599
Speaker 1: team first mentality and I'm very team first mentality myself.

113
00:06:00,040 --> 00:06:02,240
Speaker 1: There's something very special about this team, and I was

114
00:06:02,240 --> 00:06:05,479
Speaker 1: just like I wanted, I want part of this. So yeah,

115
00:06:05,560 --> 00:06:09,000
Speaker 1: there's something you guys like whoever listening to the podcasts,

116
00:06:09,000 --> 00:06:10,400
Speaker 1: I'm sure like what a great I was at the

117
00:06:10,440 --> 00:06:13,800
Speaker 1: first game last season actually at the Coliseum, so um

118
00:06:13,960 --> 00:06:17,120
Speaker 1: with using my RAMS T shirt that was a give

119
00:06:17,120 --> 00:06:21,039
Speaker 1: out that day and I put iconics was so hot

120
00:06:21,360 --> 00:06:22,960
Speaker 1: and I I just put that right in the back of

121
00:06:23,000 --> 00:06:25,320
Speaker 1: my neck to cool down. But it was a great

122
00:06:25,360 --> 00:06:30,320
Speaker 1: game and I've just enjoyed watching from afar. Uh. You know,

123
00:06:30,360 --> 00:06:33,080
Speaker 1: the Rams to be part of the organization now, like

124
00:06:33,279 --> 00:06:35,680
Speaker 1: no question, this was the job for me. And the

125
00:06:35,720 --> 00:06:38,240
Speaker 1: fact that you guys were like, yep, Serena's their girl.

126
00:06:38,560 --> 00:06:41,400
Speaker 1: I was like, oh, yeah, let's do this. Yes, no, absolutely,

127
00:06:41,440 --> 00:06:43,440
Speaker 1: and I think we're all really really glad to have

128
00:06:43,480 --> 00:06:46,560
Speaker 1: you in that respect too. Um, why did you want

129
00:06:46,560 --> 00:06:48,560
Speaker 1: to start getting into sports reporting? What made you want

130
00:06:48,600 --> 00:06:51,920
Speaker 1: to do that? Well, so this started early on, and

131
00:06:51,960 --> 00:06:55,080
Speaker 1: this is this is gonna date me and everyone else listening,

132
00:06:55,160 --> 00:06:57,960
Speaker 1: whether you're older or younger. But back in the back

133
00:06:58,000 --> 00:07:00,640
Speaker 1: in the days, um, in the Bronx, it was you

134
00:07:00,680 --> 00:07:03,159
Speaker 1: had to get up to change the channel on the TV.

135
00:07:03,320 --> 00:07:05,320
Speaker 1: There wasn't like the remote control yet, and the remote

136
00:07:05,320 --> 00:07:08,560
Speaker 1: control was like huge, you're making yourself sound like much

137
00:07:08,640 --> 00:07:12,840
Speaker 1: older than right, I'm twenty one, guys. No, no, yeah,

138
00:07:13,280 --> 00:07:24,120
Speaker 1: you're you're acting like yeah and you guys news four

139
00:07:24,160 --> 00:07:27,080
Speaker 1: different shows? Yeah, there was only four channels and you

140
00:07:27,120 --> 00:07:30,200
Speaker 1: had to watch one. Yeah. No. I was a big

141
00:07:30,240 --> 00:07:33,160
Speaker 1: fan of TV, so it's appropriate that I worked in

142
00:07:33,240 --> 00:07:35,600
Speaker 1: TV for as long as I have, But I wanted

143
00:07:35,680 --> 00:07:38,560
Speaker 1: to be My dream job was to be the Yankee reporter.

144
00:07:38,720 --> 00:07:40,520
Speaker 1: And it was like as simple as that. Like I

145
00:07:40,880 --> 00:07:44,000
Speaker 1: watched all the Yankee games. Saturday morning cartoons would end

146
00:07:44,000 --> 00:07:45,560
Speaker 1: and my mom was like, yo, you gotta get off

147
00:07:45,600 --> 00:07:47,880
Speaker 1: the couch, go play legos, and I was just like,

148
00:07:47,920 --> 00:07:49,520
Speaker 1: I want to stay on the couch here. I want

149
00:07:49,520 --> 00:07:51,880
Speaker 1: to hang out as much as possible. So I tried

150
00:07:51,920 --> 00:07:54,360
Speaker 1: to like cheat the game a little bit. And I

151
00:07:54,400 --> 00:07:56,360
Speaker 1: was just like, Oh, what if I just hang out

152
00:07:56,400 --> 00:07:58,960
Speaker 1: when my dad comes and sits on the couch when

153
00:07:58,960 --> 00:08:01,560
Speaker 1: he puts on the one clock Yankee game, I'll just

154
00:08:01,600 --> 00:08:03,760
Speaker 1: stay there and I'll see what happens. And no one

155
00:08:03,760 --> 00:08:06,360
Speaker 1: would kick me off this couch. And so for two

156
00:08:06,400 --> 00:08:07,840
Speaker 1: or three years, I was sitting there and I'm like,

157
00:08:07,920 --> 00:08:10,080
Speaker 1: what's that And he's like, Oh, that's a bass And

158
00:08:10,120 --> 00:08:12,160
Speaker 1: I'm like, oh, who's that guy with the mustache. Oh

159
00:08:12,200 --> 00:08:15,320
Speaker 1: that's Don Mattingly. And I learned everything about baseball watching

160
00:08:15,320 --> 00:08:17,360
Speaker 1: these games because I didn't want to go and play toys.

161
00:08:17,400 --> 00:08:19,760
Speaker 1: I wanted to watch TV. So went from that to

162
00:08:19,880 --> 00:08:22,480
Speaker 1: him putting me in a little league, and then I

163
00:08:22,480 --> 00:08:25,600
Speaker 1: played baseball for ten years in the Bronx. I played

164
00:08:25,600 --> 00:08:29,760
Speaker 1: against Daniel Monte Actually for those really remember, yeah, yeah,

165
00:08:29,760 --> 00:08:32,200
Speaker 1: I was the only girl in the league. At one point.

166
00:08:32,240 --> 00:08:34,760
Speaker 1: From sixteen to eighteen years old, I broke my finger

167
00:08:34,880 --> 00:08:37,480
Speaker 1: twice playing the game I love the most. So I

168
00:08:37,559 --> 00:08:40,120
Speaker 1: always thought, okay, I'm gonna be the Yankees reporter went

169
00:08:40,160 --> 00:08:42,640
Speaker 1: to college. I mean from the Bronx. Two of my

170
00:08:42,720 --> 00:08:45,720
Speaker 1: family members or teachers. My dad worked for the projects.

171
00:08:46,040 --> 00:08:48,480
Speaker 1: No one in the world was just like TV, we

172
00:08:48,520 --> 00:08:50,760
Speaker 1: know all about it. I got the connections this and

173
00:08:50,840 --> 00:08:52,760
Speaker 1: this and this. It was just like, I don't know,

174
00:08:53,000 --> 00:08:56,600
Speaker 1: TV sounds good like Yankees reporter. I could totally do that.

175
00:08:56,760 --> 00:08:59,760
Speaker 1: So I went to Syracuse because I won the twenty

176
00:08:59,800 --> 00:09:02,720
Speaker 1: two thousand and three championship with Carmelo Anthony, and I

177
00:09:02,800 --> 00:09:05,319
Speaker 1: was like, oh, that's a cool place to go. I'm

178
00:09:05,320 --> 00:09:08,080
Speaker 1: a big sports fan, so also one of the best

179
00:09:08,160 --> 00:09:10,839
Speaker 1: sport unalists, very good in the country. I mean, thank

180
00:09:10,880 --> 00:09:14,280
Speaker 1: you for saying that it is. I almost went there. Yeah,

181
00:09:14,360 --> 00:09:18,200
Speaker 1: because you're smart. Um, so I know I'm doing it wrong.

182
00:09:18,240 --> 00:09:21,360
Speaker 1: I'm complimenting. In Matt versus, I almost went there too.

183
00:09:21,400 --> 00:09:23,640
Speaker 1: One of my best friend from home tried to convince

184
00:09:23,640 --> 00:09:25,920
Speaker 1: me to go there because so our plan was to

185
00:09:25,960 --> 00:09:28,680
Speaker 1: like go to school together. He went and visited Syracuse.

186
00:09:28,760 --> 00:09:30,960
Speaker 1: I went and visited Boston College, and then he went

187
00:09:31,000 --> 00:09:34,200
Speaker 1: to Missoo and already had his mind made up Missoo.

188
00:09:34,440 --> 00:09:36,880
Speaker 1: Oh my god, my buddy is a Missoo fan. And

189
00:09:37,120 --> 00:09:39,120
Speaker 1: a Rams fan. All he went to Missoo and he's

190
00:09:39,120 --> 00:09:43,320
Speaker 1: always like, oh, there's a better journalism school in Syracuse,

191
00:09:43,640 --> 00:09:45,640
Speaker 1: is it. I'm just gonna get all the people hating

192
00:09:45,679 --> 00:09:50,520
Speaker 1: on me now. I mean I'm biased, but I'm not

193
00:09:50,559 --> 00:09:52,720
Speaker 1: going to go ahead and put one school against another

194
00:09:52,760 --> 00:09:56,000
Speaker 1: because it just doesn't matter. There's too many You didn't

195
00:09:56,040 --> 00:10:01,880
Speaker 1: go there for what I didn't go either. I mean

196
00:10:01,920 --> 00:10:04,360
Speaker 1: you're also from you know, Missouri, Matt, so Yeah, so

197
00:10:04,480 --> 00:10:06,959
Speaker 1: that's that's the background. All right, You're fine, you can

198
00:10:07,000 --> 00:10:11,800
Speaker 1: just I understand what you're saying anyway. Um So, yeah,

199
00:10:11,800 --> 00:10:16,120
Speaker 1: I went to Syracuse, went to New House, and but uh,

200
00:10:16,440 --> 00:10:18,160
Speaker 1: I just kind of was like, oh, I should be

201
00:10:18,160 --> 00:10:20,520
Speaker 1: doing this. Um So, I thought I was gonna be

202
00:10:20,559 --> 00:10:23,760
Speaker 1: the Yankees reporter, and Meredith Murvakovitz is doing a great

203
00:10:23,840 --> 00:10:26,640
Speaker 1: job at that job. But you know, you know, once

204
00:10:26,720 --> 00:10:28,679
Speaker 1: you kind of speak the language, like I always say,

205
00:10:28,720 --> 00:10:31,880
Speaker 1: I speak English, Spanish and sports, because you know, once

206
00:10:31,880 --> 00:10:35,360
Speaker 1: you speak the language, I mean, any any time I

207
00:10:35,400 --> 00:10:37,440
Speaker 1: can go to any live game. We talked about this

208
00:10:37,480 --> 00:10:39,960
Speaker 1: at lunch yesterday, like, take me to any live sports

209
00:10:39,960 --> 00:10:42,120
Speaker 1: event and I will love it, and I will ask

210
00:10:42,240 --> 00:10:44,800
Speaker 1: questions and I feel like the fact that you know,

211
00:10:44,840 --> 00:10:47,400
Speaker 1: I haven't had the opportunity to cover a football team

212
00:10:47,440 --> 00:10:50,000
Speaker 1: like this. It's like a blank palette and I can't

213
00:10:50,040 --> 00:10:52,760
Speaker 1: wait to color it up and learn all these new things.

214
00:10:52,800 --> 00:10:55,320
Speaker 1: And I'm pretty excited. But like, I just love the game.

215
00:10:55,720 --> 00:10:58,280
Speaker 1: I get so excited. You know, I'm actually a huge

216
00:10:58,280 --> 00:11:00,560
Speaker 1: fan of Lebron James. So we can we can agree

217
00:11:00,559 --> 00:11:04,079
Speaker 1: on one thing, like I just love I know Miles

218
00:11:04,360 --> 00:11:07,680
Speaker 1: was like, yay, yay, yay. I'm a I just love

219
00:11:07,800 --> 00:11:11,360
Speaker 1: that mental grime that athletes kind of put themselves through.

220
00:11:11,520 --> 00:11:13,800
Speaker 1: Like you know, I loved Derek Cheeter when he played

221
00:11:13,800 --> 00:11:16,040
Speaker 1: for the Yankees. It's again that mentality of like how

222
00:11:16,080 --> 00:11:18,520
Speaker 1: did you hyper focus and how do you go through

223
00:11:18,559 --> 00:11:20,640
Speaker 1: those things? Like that stuff fascinates me. Which and that

224
00:11:20,760 --> 00:11:24,800
Speaker 1: happened and give man, the hater comes out. Look, we

225
00:11:24,920 --> 00:11:28,440
Speaker 1: just swept them, like you know, in the Yankees Cleveland

226
00:11:28,440 --> 00:11:32,199
Speaker 1: Indians series. So I'll just leave it at that. And

227
00:11:32,240 --> 00:11:34,360
Speaker 1: there wasn't really being a hater. I was just making

228
00:11:34,360 --> 00:11:35,960
Speaker 1: a steep. I want to know what position you played

229
00:11:35,960 --> 00:11:39,760
Speaker 1: in baseball? Oh, in baseball, I played left, in first

230
00:11:40,400 --> 00:11:42,960
Speaker 1: and in softball because I was thinking, oh, I should

231
00:11:42,960 --> 00:11:46,120
Speaker 1: play softball to get a college scholarship. I played center field. Gotcha?

232
00:11:46,240 --> 00:11:48,319
Speaker 1: So cool? I knew one of my like really good

233
00:11:48,320 --> 00:11:51,360
Speaker 1: friends in the sports broadcasting program at TCU was the

234
00:11:51,360 --> 00:11:53,800
Speaker 1: only girl who played baseball for like ten years at

235
00:11:53,840 --> 00:11:56,400
Speaker 1: her school in Texas. Too. Okay, you're to hit me up.

236
00:11:56,480 --> 00:11:59,480
Speaker 1: Weird weird thing. Do you play catch or do you

237
00:11:59,640 --> 00:12:04,400
Speaker 1: have a catch? Oh? Do you want to have a catch?

238
00:12:04,760 --> 00:12:07,000
Speaker 1: Have a catch? But I guess I would play it.

239
00:12:07,520 --> 00:12:09,360
Speaker 1: I don't know that could go either way. I was

240
00:12:09,360 --> 00:12:12,520
Speaker 1: always you want to play catch? You want to play catch? Yes?

241
00:12:13,040 --> 00:12:14,559
Speaker 1: If someone's like, hey, you want to have a catch,

242
00:12:14,679 --> 00:12:17,600
Speaker 1: that's also normally so dah see that's an East Coast thing.

243
00:12:17,640 --> 00:12:22,959
Speaker 1: Here's another one. What do you do when you're standing? Uh?

244
00:12:21,760 --> 00:12:24,840
Speaker 1: You want to get in someplace? But there are a

245
00:12:24,840 --> 00:12:27,800
Speaker 1: lot of people there? Oh? In line? Yeah, you see

246
00:12:27,880 --> 00:12:30,360
Speaker 1: you get in line? Get in line? Really? You say

247
00:12:30,480 --> 00:12:32,600
Speaker 1: in line? Yeah? Because most of the people that I've

248
00:12:32,600 --> 00:12:35,520
Speaker 1: ever met from one Yeah, they say online, get I

249
00:12:35,559 --> 00:12:38,440
Speaker 1: need to get online? Yeah. But then I maybe I

250
00:12:38,480 --> 00:12:41,079
Speaker 1: switched it because I'm like online is now the internet? Yes,

251
00:12:41,200 --> 00:12:43,600
Speaker 1: so maybe I have also switched it from my own

252
00:12:43,720 --> 00:12:46,920
Speaker 1: like journalism. Maybe because one of my like one of

253
00:12:46,960 --> 00:12:49,920
Speaker 1: my best friends from college. She is from the Bronx

254
00:12:50,000 --> 00:12:54,520
Speaker 1: originally is and so yes, exactly. Yes. Also is the

255
00:12:54,559 --> 00:12:56,800
Speaker 1: one who introduced me to Desis and Mirro. So like

256
00:12:56,880 --> 00:13:01,280
Speaker 1: you guys, I'm sure would yeah, but she would always say, yeah,

257
00:13:01,280 --> 00:13:03,560
Speaker 1: we got to get online, and I was just I was.

258
00:13:03,760 --> 00:13:06,079
Speaker 1: I remember there was one day it was frea cone

259
00:13:06,160 --> 00:13:10,720
Speaker 1: day at Ben and Jerry's and she but she was

260
00:13:10,760 --> 00:13:12,560
Speaker 1: telling me like, oh, yeah, we need to get online

261
00:13:12,559 --> 00:13:14,080
Speaker 1: for this, and I'm like, what do you talk about

262
00:13:14,120 --> 00:13:16,800
Speaker 1: to get online? It's not a thing. Yeah, no, it's

263
00:13:17,360 --> 00:13:19,240
Speaker 1: I know what you're talking about. But I think I

264
00:13:19,280 --> 00:13:22,480
Speaker 1: did switch it for because people like, how do you

265
00:13:22,520 --> 00:13:25,960
Speaker 1: pronounce the drink that is in that water? I'm drinking water?

266
00:13:26,600 --> 00:13:29,720
Speaker 1: I love my water and I love my dogs. Yeah,

267
00:13:29,840 --> 00:13:31,480
Speaker 1: if you have a couple glasses of wine with me,

268
00:13:31,559 --> 00:13:34,560
Speaker 1: you will learn easily that that that accent can turn

269
00:13:34,559 --> 00:13:36,760
Speaker 1: on and off. But because I went to the best

270
00:13:36,840 --> 00:13:39,760
Speaker 1: journalism school in the world, I can also go Hi,

271
00:13:39,840 --> 00:13:42,120
Speaker 1: I'm Serena Morales and I talk like this and you

272
00:13:42,120 --> 00:13:44,600
Speaker 1: wouldn't know where I'm from. So was that a big

273
00:13:44,640 --> 00:13:47,880
Speaker 1: part of journalism school, like learning how to speak? Is

274
00:13:48,040 --> 00:13:50,679
Speaker 1: I did not go to journal dialects. Yeah, so that's

275
00:13:50,679 --> 00:13:52,320
Speaker 1: one of the things that I missed, and it's probably

276
00:13:52,360 --> 00:13:57,680
Speaker 1: why I'm not as good at this. No, you're good. Um. Yeah,

277
00:13:57,720 --> 00:13:59,520
Speaker 1: I had to learn to lose my accent because my

278
00:13:59,559 --> 00:14:02,280
Speaker 1: professor or professor foe, I'll never forget her. She was

279
00:14:02,320 --> 00:14:04,880
Speaker 1: just like, Serena, you will never get hired anywhere out

280
00:14:04,880 --> 00:14:06,960
Speaker 1: of New York. And I was like, doesn't sound like

281
00:14:06,960 --> 00:14:10,280
Speaker 1: a problem. I don't know. I mean that's from the pronx.

282
00:14:10,320 --> 00:14:11,920
Speaker 1: I was just like in this little bubble. I'm like,

283
00:14:12,280 --> 00:14:14,160
Speaker 1: where else would I work? I don't know, you know.

284
00:14:14,400 --> 00:14:16,840
Speaker 1: Just so She's just like, no, you need to work

285
00:14:16,840 --> 00:14:18,720
Speaker 1: on So I had to learn to say things and

286
00:14:19,120 --> 00:14:23,800
Speaker 1: pronunciate things correctly. So it's a little about slowing things down.

287
00:14:23,840 --> 00:14:26,800
Speaker 1: So if I speed up wolf the world ends, I'm

288
00:14:26,800 --> 00:14:28,480
Speaker 1: going to be a jerk. And you just said the

289
00:14:28,520 --> 00:14:34,400
Speaker 1: word pronunciate pronounce well, okay, so when you say well, so,

290
00:14:34,680 --> 00:14:39,320
Speaker 1: I'm also when I'm dyslexic too. Um. I also speak Spanish,

291
00:14:39,360 --> 00:14:41,360
Speaker 1: so there are moments where I'll be like, oh, yeah,

292
00:14:41,360 --> 00:14:43,840
Speaker 1: that's totally incorrect. But I think I mix everything up,

293
00:14:43,920 --> 00:14:47,080
Speaker 1: so that's fine. I never say pronunciate unless I have

294
00:14:47,200 --> 00:14:49,960
Speaker 1: to say it incorrectly, So there you have it. We

295
00:14:50,760 --> 00:14:53,760
Speaker 1: go like pronunciate. Everyone's like, Serena, what, that's not even

296
00:14:53,800 --> 00:14:56,160
Speaker 1: a thing. I've made it a thing now It's kind

297
00:14:56,160 --> 00:14:58,800
Speaker 1: of not it could be because you know exactly what

298
00:14:58,840 --> 00:15:00,960
Speaker 1: I was saying. I did. It's like when I know,

299
00:15:01,120 --> 00:15:03,200
Speaker 1: like when my mom starts saying things. My mom has

300
00:15:03,240 --> 00:15:07,040
Speaker 1: a tendency to like mispronounce names. So you know, like

301
00:15:07,120 --> 00:15:09,360
Speaker 1: we were talking, I'm gonna I'm gonna put her on

302
00:15:09,400 --> 00:15:11,320
Speaker 1: blast and this may not be the best thing to

303
00:15:11,360 --> 00:15:13,480
Speaker 1: do right before Mother's Day. And I love you, mom

304
00:15:13,480 --> 00:15:17,600
Speaker 1: and you know that. Um, but but that's always how

305
00:15:17,640 --> 00:15:19,800
Speaker 1: it goes down, right. Matt and I were like, he's

306
00:15:19,840 --> 00:15:24,040
Speaker 1: about We're talking on Sunday, as we often do, and

307
00:15:24,160 --> 00:15:27,880
Speaker 1: she was telling me about Donald Glover and yeah, she's

308
00:15:27,920 --> 00:15:31,240
Speaker 1: talking about Atlanta and she kept calling him IRV and

309
00:15:31,280 --> 00:15:35,240
Speaker 1: I'm like, mom, the character's name is Ern, not Erv.

310
00:15:35,800 --> 00:15:38,000
Speaker 1: And then there was another person and I can't remember

311
00:15:38,200 --> 00:15:40,520
Speaker 1: who it was, man, I wish I could remember. But

312
00:15:40,520 --> 00:15:44,000
Speaker 1: she also she did this, oh Sa Ray you know

313
00:15:44,320 --> 00:15:47,760
Speaker 1: from um gosh, the HBO show what is it called Insecure?

314
00:15:48,200 --> 00:15:50,720
Speaker 1: And so she started calling her Issha and I was like, Mom,

315
00:15:50,760 --> 00:15:54,320
Speaker 1: there's no age. Well, hey, I would love to meet you,

316
00:15:54,440 --> 00:15:57,880
Speaker 1: so we can just mess up things together. It's totally fine. Yes,

317
00:15:58,400 --> 00:16:02,680
Speaker 1: I can say okaronnco. I can't. I could do that, Obo, right,

318
00:16:03,840 --> 00:16:10,840
Speaker 1: Oh crap, already, I'm glad that you did open okarron

319
00:16:10,880 --> 00:16:18,720
Speaker 1: quo Obo. I'm like, I've already cut that down. I

320
00:16:18,760 --> 00:16:23,880
Speaker 1: can say, I can't. So when I try to say that,

321
00:16:23,960 --> 00:16:26,040
Speaker 1: it just comes out the Greek freak. Yeah yeah, yeah,

322
00:16:26,080 --> 00:16:30,000
Speaker 1: Well that's why that nicknames Obo the Greek freak. I

323
00:16:30,080 --> 00:16:34,880
Speaker 1: get it. Nicknames are clutch. They are nicknames are definitely clutch. Um,

324
00:16:34,920 --> 00:16:37,920
Speaker 1: what are you looking forward to now about living on

325
00:16:38,000 --> 00:16:43,440
Speaker 1: the West coast besides the traffic? Uh soun sin son.

326
00:16:43,600 --> 00:16:47,120
Speaker 1: I made everyone sit outside today for lunch because I

327
00:16:47,320 --> 00:16:51,680
Speaker 1: don't We had a terrible, terrible, terrible winner. And so yeah,

328
00:16:51,720 --> 00:16:55,360
Speaker 1: I'm really excited for Sun. I am Puerto Rican Colombian.

329
00:16:55,640 --> 00:16:58,120
Speaker 1: I would hope that the vitamin D sticks to my

330
00:16:58,200 --> 00:17:00,880
Speaker 1: skin a little better than it it has been in

331
00:17:01,000 --> 00:17:05,840
Speaker 1: past years. So Sun watching games early, which you are

332
00:17:05,840 --> 00:17:08,000
Speaker 1: now telling me, is not a thing, and I shouldn't

333
00:17:08,040 --> 00:17:10,280
Speaker 1: be excited about that. I mean, it's a thing, but

334
00:17:10,400 --> 00:17:13,280
Speaker 1: it's not I mean, I don't love it. I personally

335
00:17:13,320 --> 00:17:17,520
Speaker 1: my favorite was Central Time because Central Time, like you know,

336
00:17:18,000 --> 00:17:20,520
Speaker 1: you get to go to bed at a reasonable time

337
00:17:21,160 --> 00:17:25,520
Speaker 1: and things start still after work. So that's the hard

338
00:17:25,560 --> 00:17:27,760
Speaker 1: thing being from the East coast, you know, you you

339
00:17:27,920 --> 00:17:30,359
Speaker 1: or the Eastern time zone. Cleveland is technically not the

340
00:17:30,359 --> 00:17:34,359
Speaker 1: East coast. Yeah, fine, but all I know exactly you

341
00:17:34,960 --> 00:17:39,159
Speaker 1: got to pronunciate that, Miles. It's funny. Well, just you

342
00:17:39,200 --> 00:17:40,920
Speaker 1: know what, that's been four years in New York and

343
00:17:40,960 --> 00:17:45,280
Speaker 1: now I'm right right right, yeah, but no, you all

344
00:17:45,320 --> 00:17:48,000
Speaker 1: these games, like Indians games, Cavs games in the regular season,

345
00:17:48,000 --> 00:17:51,920
Speaker 1: they start at four o'clock. So I'm still working. So

346
00:17:51,960 --> 00:17:54,240
Speaker 1: that's just what makes it more Okay, that's fair. But

347
00:17:54,440 --> 00:17:58,560
Speaker 1: that being said, I guess for the your question right. Also,

348
00:17:58,760 --> 00:18:00,760
Speaker 1: I am going to start a Twitter account look out

349
00:18:00,760 --> 00:18:03,879
Speaker 1: for it of things Miles complains about. So everything that

350
00:18:03,920 --> 00:18:06,160
Speaker 1: I'm like, this is great. I don't mind the traffic.

351
00:18:06,240 --> 00:18:08,639
Speaker 1: I can listen to a podcast and he's like, oh

352
00:18:08,680 --> 00:18:11,560
Speaker 1: the traffic, or like he complained about sitting outside in

353
00:18:11,560 --> 00:18:14,399
Speaker 1: the sun today, right, no, it was there. Oh if

354
00:18:14,480 --> 00:18:18,760
Speaker 1: we got free food, free food today we have pizza, salad,

355
00:18:18,920 --> 00:18:22,840
Speaker 1: chicken wings, and he gets free salad and he goes, ah,

356
00:18:22,880 --> 00:18:27,040
Speaker 1: there's no protein in this, mind you, he's eating chicken

357
00:18:27,080 --> 00:18:30,240
Speaker 1: wings along with this salad. I like how you made

358
00:18:30,280 --> 00:18:32,640
Speaker 1: me a New Yorker in your accent like that all

359
00:18:32,640 --> 00:18:37,400
Speaker 1: of a sudden, like that I really enjoyed. But it's

360
00:18:37,440 --> 00:18:39,240
Speaker 1: like we were talking about this on the last podcast

361
00:18:39,240 --> 00:18:41,239
Speaker 1: with the Market, Like I've got this personal trainer. I

362
00:18:41,280 --> 00:18:43,480
Speaker 1: went to the personal trainer this morning. I just don't

363
00:18:43,480 --> 00:18:47,440
Speaker 1: want to ruin it. Slap Okay, yeah, thanks guys like that.

364
00:18:47,560 --> 00:18:49,720
Speaker 1: Nobody needed that. That just makes me sound like even

365
00:18:49,720 --> 00:18:53,159
Speaker 1: more for a jerk. But I just didn't want to

366
00:18:53,240 --> 00:18:55,480
Speaker 1: ruin the workout. But yes, I complain about a lot

367
00:18:55,520 --> 00:18:57,720
Speaker 1: of random, annoying things like that's just my m O.

368
00:18:58,080 --> 00:19:02,440
Speaker 1: Could I can't wait to work with you. Ah yeah. Well.

369
00:19:02,480 --> 00:19:04,480
Speaker 1: The other thing is we know that Serena likes to

370
00:19:04,560 --> 00:19:07,760
Speaker 1: live her life on the edge. And I just noticed

371
00:19:07,800 --> 00:19:11,880
Speaker 1: this before we were going on this podcast, because Serena

372
00:19:11,960 --> 00:19:14,800
Speaker 1: does not have a case on her phone. Oh yeah,

373
00:19:15,000 --> 00:19:18,639
Speaker 1: heck no, that's that's truly to me, really living life

374
00:19:18,720 --> 00:19:21,680
Speaker 1: on the edge, because I mean, like, what happens if

375
00:19:21,720 --> 00:19:24,000
Speaker 1: you drop it? How many times have you dropped your phone?

376
00:19:24,040 --> 00:19:26,840
Speaker 1: In their bris. Never dropped this thing. No, I'm more

377
00:19:26,920 --> 00:19:29,680
Speaker 1: careful with it as I put it under my leg,

378
00:19:30,119 --> 00:19:32,719
Speaker 1: I'm sitting on it. I'm more careful on my phone

379
00:19:33,200 --> 00:19:36,720
Speaker 1: because I don't have a case to like protect it.

380
00:19:36,720 --> 00:19:41,479
Speaker 1: It's all psychological, guys, wasn't it. Baseball's like ninety percent

381
00:19:41,560 --> 00:19:46,199
Speaker 1: metal and the other the other half. I'm like, what

382
00:19:46,320 --> 00:19:49,200
Speaker 1: is it? Yeah? Yeah, this is fine. But I also

383
00:19:49,280 --> 00:19:51,800
Speaker 1: like to live life on the edge because you like

384
00:19:51,920 --> 00:19:56,280
Speaker 1: to go to exotic places like Australia and the Great

385
00:19:56,320 --> 00:19:59,600
Speaker 1: Barrier reef yep, I sure do. Um. I'm gonna tell

386
00:19:59,640 --> 00:20:04,000
Speaker 1: that story, Miles, because so I will say this, like,

387
00:20:04,280 --> 00:20:07,480
Speaker 1: I think it's completely normal for a woman to travel

388
00:20:07,560 --> 00:20:10,359
Speaker 1: or anybody to travel by themselves, and I love doing it.

389
00:20:10,400 --> 00:20:13,320
Speaker 1: I do it pretty frequently, and anytime I have a

390
00:20:13,400 --> 00:20:16,439
Speaker 1: chance to like slip away to another random country, I

391
00:20:16,520 --> 00:20:19,359
Speaker 1: do so. So I decided to find the furthest place

392
00:20:19,359 --> 00:20:22,520
Speaker 1: that I've never been, which happened to be Australia. Ever

393
00:20:22,640 --> 00:20:24,760
Speaker 1: hear of that place, it's just I want to go

394
00:20:24,800 --> 00:20:26,840
Speaker 1: to Australia. Like I'm jealous of you that you have

395
00:20:26,960 --> 00:20:29,040
Speaker 1: been to Asta. I've been to Australia one day. I

396
00:20:29,040 --> 00:20:31,160
Speaker 1: want to do that checked it off the bucket list.

397
00:20:31,240 --> 00:20:33,960
Speaker 1: So I go to Australia and mind you now, I'm

398
00:20:34,000 --> 00:20:36,160
Speaker 1: not a great swimmer, Like I didn't have like the

399
00:20:36,160 --> 00:20:40,680
Speaker 1: best oceans around me and the bronx. Um my mom

400
00:20:40,760 --> 00:20:45,199
Speaker 1: did send me you go, And no, I didn't go

401
00:20:45,280 --> 00:20:48,440
Speaker 1: swimming along with all of the dead bodies back in

402
00:20:48,520 --> 00:20:51,479
Speaker 1: the day. No. Um, although you know I know I

403
00:20:51,520 --> 00:20:54,000
Speaker 1: float right, so no, But so I my mom like

404
00:20:54,040 --> 00:20:55,880
Speaker 1: sent me to sports camps and stuff where they would

405
00:20:55,880 --> 00:20:57,680
Speaker 1: like throw you in a pool. So I learned a

406
00:20:57,760 --> 00:21:00,720
Speaker 1: doggie paddle, like in a d sent way, like I

407
00:21:00,720 --> 00:21:02,560
Speaker 1: can probably swim from one end to a pool to

408
00:21:02,600 --> 00:21:05,919
Speaker 1: the other. That being said, it's not easy. And then

409
00:21:05,760 --> 00:21:09,399
Speaker 1: I can't what is it wading water? What is it? Yeah? Okay,

410
00:21:09,760 --> 00:21:15,560
Speaker 1: tread water. I'm like, I'm like, okay, thanks, I'm like,

411
00:21:15,600 --> 00:21:17,639
Speaker 1: what is this call? What is what you do with

412
00:21:17,680 --> 00:21:20,640
Speaker 1: your arms? That I'm doing it correctly? Treading water? Can't

413
00:21:20,640 --> 00:21:23,320
Speaker 1: do it. So anyway, that being said, when you go

414
00:21:23,400 --> 00:21:25,400
Speaker 1: to Australia, one of the things you have to do

415
00:21:25,600 --> 00:21:28,280
Speaker 1: is go and visit the Great Barrier Reef. The Great

416
00:21:28,320 --> 00:21:30,800
Speaker 1: Berry Reef sounds like a great idea. It's out in

417
00:21:30,840 --> 00:21:33,560
Speaker 1: the middle of the ocean. So I'm like, boom, I'm

418
00:21:33,600 --> 00:21:36,840
Speaker 1: going out there. Let's do this by myself. So I

419
00:21:36,880 --> 00:21:38,919
Speaker 1: get on a boat and I'm like, all right, I

420
00:21:38,960 --> 00:21:41,439
Speaker 1: should go and find a smaller boat that does these

421
00:21:41,520 --> 00:21:44,359
Speaker 1: trips out there, because then I'll get more attention. So

422
00:21:44,400 --> 00:21:46,679
Speaker 1: I did it with like I don't know, fifteen people.

423
00:21:47,320 --> 00:21:49,040
Speaker 1: They take me out to the Great Beary Reef and

424
00:21:49,119 --> 00:21:51,080
Speaker 1: this is how it goes. They send you to two

425
00:21:51,160 --> 00:21:53,880
Speaker 1: different locations, so you get two different options to see

426
00:21:53,920 --> 00:21:56,399
Speaker 1: whatever the heck is down there. So the first up,

427
00:21:56,480 --> 00:21:59,280
Speaker 1: you know, first bout we go to and I'll explain.

428
00:21:59,320 --> 00:22:02,439
Speaker 1: I'm gonna give you some science breakdown. The Great Barrier Reef.

429
00:22:02,560 --> 00:22:06,080
Speaker 1: The reef, it's the Great Barrier because the reef actually

430
00:22:06,119 --> 00:22:08,840
Speaker 1: breaks the waves. So when you are in these little

431
00:22:08,880 --> 00:22:12,200
Speaker 1: pockets of sunshine, you know, when you're in the reef,

432
00:22:12,240 --> 00:22:14,600
Speaker 1: there's it's super calm water. It's like if you're like

433
00:22:14,640 --> 00:22:17,520
Speaker 1: sitting in a pool practically, which Mama knows a couple

434
00:22:17,520 --> 00:22:20,439
Speaker 1: of things about swimming in pools, not many, but that

435
00:22:20,560 --> 00:22:24,480
Speaker 1: being said, I was like, I could totally handle this calm,

436
00:22:24,600 --> 00:22:27,199
Speaker 1: little pool area in the Great Barrier Reef. So they

437
00:22:27,240 --> 00:22:28,560
Speaker 1: go to take us to the first spot, and I

438
00:22:28,560 --> 00:22:31,280
Speaker 1: had already said, hey, can't swim. I want noodles. I

439
00:22:31,320 --> 00:22:33,639
Speaker 1: want the whole thing. And they're like, everyone's getting a noodle,

440
00:22:33,920 --> 00:22:36,960
Speaker 1: everyone's getting fins, like you're all good, and I'm like, great,

441
00:22:36,960 --> 00:22:39,119
Speaker 1: I'm gonna fit right in. So everyone's got a noodle

442
00:22:39,320 --> 00:22:42,800
Speaker 1: or noodling around, and I feel so confident during this

443
00:22:42,920 --> 00:22:46,880
Speaker 1: first you know experience, that I didn't need the life

444
00:22:46,920 --> 00:22:49,960
Speaker 1: thing that they were you know, suggesting I use. I

445
00:22:50,040 --> 00:22:52,399
Speaker 1: was like, no, I got this. Guys. Swimming four feet

446
00:22:52,440 --> 00:22:55,320
Speaker 1: away from everyone, I'm like I'm the king of the world,

447
00:22:55,480 --> 00:22:58,520
Speaker 1: like the master of my domain, Like let's do this.

448
00:22:58,800 --> 00:23:02,000
Speaker 1: So I'm swimming around looking its stuff like you know whatever,

449
00:23:02,160 --> 00:23:04,320
Speaker 1: that's what you do in the Great Bear Reef. Get

450
00:23:04,359 --> 00:23:07,000
Speaker 1: back on the boat and we have lunch, and I'm

451
00:23:07,040 --> 00:23:09,719
Speaker 1: so excited. I'm so hyped up that I can swim.

452
00:23:09,800 --> 00:23:12,199
Speaker 1: I think I can swim. All of a sudden, I

453
00:23:12,200 --> 00:23:14,720
Speaker 1: went from I don't know how to tread water too,

454
00:23:15,080 --> 00:23:18,320
Speaker 1: I can swim. I'm Michael Phelps. So I go and

455
00:23:18,520 --> 00:23:20,080
Speaker 1: I get back on the boat and there and they

456
00:23:20,119 --> 00:23:22,400
Speaker 1: take us to this next area, and that was like

457
00:23:22,520 --> 00:23:25,440
Speaker 1: the trial period, probably like let's see how people can do.

458
00:23:25,800 --> 00:23:28,160
Speaker 1: But they really needed to set us up better. So

459
00:23:28,359 --> 00:23:32,240
Speaker 1: for those listening, visualize a horseshoe and the boat kind

460
00:23:32,240 --> 00:23:34,560
Speaker 1: of comes in where there's no horseshoe like in that

461
00:23:34,640 --> 00:23:37,440
Speaker 1: middle part, and the captain of the boat is just like,

462
00:23:37,600 --> 00:23:39,320
Speaker 1: what I want you to do is exit the boat

463
00:23:39,520 --> 00:23:42,600
Speaker 1: and swim to your left and hook around the reef

464
00:23:42,680 --> 00:23:45,040
Speaker 1: and it's shaped as a horseshoe, and come back all

465
00:23:45,080 --> 00:23:46,560
Speaker 1: the way around until you get to the other side

466
00:23:46,560 --> 00:23:50,120
Speaker 1: of the boat. So I'm like, easy, totally. I feel

467
00:23:50,119 --> 00:23:53,640
Speaker 1: great about myself. I'm getting my noodle go in, And

468
00:23:53,680 --> 00:23:56,560
Speaker 1: I painfully was smart enough to ask someone a partner

469
00:23:56,600 --> 00:23:58,320
Speaker 1: with me, like a little buddy system, because I was

470
00:23:58,359 --> 00:24:01,160
Speaker 1: traveling by myself. So all right, cool, got this. So

471
00:24:01,200 --> 00:24:04,399
Speaker 1: we go out. We start to follow the horseshoe that

472
00:24:04,440 --> 00:24:07,200
Speaker 1: he tells us, but he also warns us don't leave

473
00:24:07,240 --> 00:24:10,080
Speaker 1: the horseshoe because if you leave the horseshoe, you're going

474
00:24:10,119 --> 00:24:13,560
Speaker 1: to experience the ocean water, which I had mentioned like

475
00:24:13,920 --> 00:24:16,240
Speaker 1: that that just terrifies the heck out of me, Like

476
00:24:16,280 --> 00:24:19,240
Speaker 1: I never want to see Wilson the volleyball out floating

477
00:24:19,240 --> 00:24:22,159
Speaker 1: in the ocean and screaming somebody who can't who doesn't

478
00:24:22,240 --> 00:24:25,199
Speaker 1: swim the best I would imagine that to be. So

479
00:24:25,400 --> 00:24:27,439
Speaker 1: that Tom Hanks movie scared the crap out of me,

480
00:24:27,520 --> 00:24:29,679
Speaker 1: Like I never want to be in the middle of

481
00:24:29,720 --> 00:24:39,040
Speaker 1: nowhere and drowned. So I drown. Well he survived. It's

482
00:24:39,080 --> 00:24:46,040
Speaker 1: so old that the statue of limitations. Yeah right, Like

483
00:24:46,560 --> 00:24:49,240
Speaker 1: I'm like, oh, good, well, thank you. Sorry guys. Anyway,

484
00:24:49,359 --> 00:24:52,880
Speaker 1: so Tom Hanks survives in Cassaway. Anyway, I don't even

485
00:24:53,280 --> 00:24:55,960
Speaker 1: like spoil it more for those like, don't na she

486
00:24:56,080 --> 00:24:59,880
Speaker 1: spoiled it. So I go out there and I'm pardon

487
00:25:00,160 --> 00:25:03,080
Speaker 1: with this woman, go out and all of a sudden,

488
00:25:03,640 --> 00:25:07,160
Speaker 1: Oh my gosh, I see a sea turtle. But not

489
00:25:07,200 --> 00:25:10,879
Speaker 1: just any sea turtle. I see a dinosaur sea turtle.

490
00:25:11,119 --> 00:25:14,560
Speaker 1: This thing it's the size a little shorter than like

491
00:25:15,080 --> 00:25:18,520
Speaker 1: this table here, So like I'm five foot four on

492
00:25:18,560 --> 00:25:22,040
Speaker 1: a good day, so it was at least like five

493
00:25:22,320 --> 00:25:26,320
Speaker 1: seven turtle, like like maybe bigger than Isaiah I'm like

494
00:25:26,320 --> 00:25:30,280
Speaker 1: trying to think of like it's like trying just a

495
00:25:30,320 --> 00:25:34,040
Speaker 1: short basketball player. Definitely bigger than Isaiah Thomas, definitely right

496
00:25:34,119 --> 00:25:38,360
Speaker 1: because he's my size, so um so like yeah, sizeable

497
00:25:38,480 --> 00:25:41,879
Speaker 1: and why like this turtle wasn't I was like, what

498
00:25:42,080 --> 00:25:45,159
Speaker 1: is this table doing floating underneath me? I'm like, oh

499
00:25:45,200 --> 00:25:47,880
Speaker 1: my god, it's the sea turtle. So now I decide

500
00:25:47,960 --> 00:25:50,640
Speaker 1: to go on this journey with the sea turtle. Instead

501
00:25:50,720 --> 00:25:53,480
Speaker 1: of thinking about, you know, the lack of swimming I

502
00:25:53,520 --> 00:25:57,000
Speaker 1: can do, you know, being by myself for like listening

503
00:25:57,000 --> 00:26:00,159
Speaker 1: to the captain's orders. None of that mattered because I

504
00:26:00,200 --> 00:26:02,840
Speaker 1: saw a dinosaur and I was gonna follow that dinosaur

505
00:26:03,000 --> 00:26:05,199
Speaker 1: to see who was bigger. Because all of a sudden,

506
00:26:05,240 --> 00:26:07,800
Speaker 1: we decided to play a game. So thankfully, this girl

507
00:26:07,920 --> 00:26:10,480
Speaker 1: Molly is swimming with me along and I'm like, oh

508
00:26:10,560 --> 00:26:13,480
Speaker 1: my god, follow the seat turtle. We're gonna do this

509
00:26:13,600 --> 00:26:16,600
Speaker 1: and follow it. And so we're following this thing for

510
00:26:16,720 --> 00:26:19,320
Speaker 1: like five minutes. I don't know, I don't remember. All

511
00:26:19,359 --> 00:26:22,440
Speaker 1: I remember was picking my head up after the sea

512
00:26:22,520 --> 00:26:26,520
Speaker 1: turtle decided to continue on its way. Secret. Sea turtles

513
00:26:26,520 --> 00:26:29,400
Speaker 1: are way better swimmers than I am. Oh wow, talk

514
00:26:29,440 --> 00:26:35,439
Speaker 1: about it, yeah wow. Oh man. So that sea turtle

515
00:26:35,480 --> 00:26:37,480
Speaker 1: went on its merry way and I picked my head

516
00:26:37,560 --> 00:26:40,680
Speaker 1: up and I was like, oh my god, there's this

517
00:26:41,080 --> 00:26:44,520
Speaker 1: whoosh and then it was just like saltwater welcome, drink

518
00:26:44,560 --> 00:26:47,040
Speaker 1: it all in. I was like, oh no, and then

519
00:26:47,119 --> 00:26:49,679
Speaker 1: you're supposed to not panic in that moment, but of

520
00:26:49,680 --> 00:26:52,400
Speaker 1: course I was like, look, I'm gonna panic like crazy.

521
00:26:52,560 --> 00:26:55,400
Speaker 1: So I started freaking out and waving my hands everywhere.

522
00:26:55,520 --> 00:26:58,919
Speaker 1: The Captain's like yonder, like far, and he's just like

523
00:26:59,040 --> 00:27:02,960
Speaker 1: come back, and I'm like noodles. So everyone, all of

524
00:27:03,000 --> 00:27:04,719
Speaker 1: a sudden, I don't know, all these people showed up

525
00:27:04,720 --> 00:27:06,960
Speaker 1: and they're like noodles, give her noodles. So now I've

526
00:27:06,960 --> 00:27:10,440
Speaker 1: got like five noodles underneath me. I'm trying to breathe,

527
00:27:10,440 --> 00:27:14,600
Speaker 1: I'm drinking saltwater. I just nothing was planned. So now

528
00:27:14,640 --> 00:27:16,840
Speaker 1: they're trying to shift me onto the boat like a

529
00:27:16,960 --> 00:27:21,080
Speaker 1: dead whale like flops on land. I'm like, oh my gosh.

530
00:27:21,160 --> 00:27:29,040
Speaker 1: All that said, I survive another spoiler man, and I

531
00:27:29,280 --> 00:27:32,000
Speaker 1: make it. And I had a nice glass of white

532
00:27:32,040 --> 00:27:35,520
Speaker 1: wine afterwards to wash down saltwater. But yeah, he was

533
00:27:35,520 --> 00:27:38,000
Speaker 1: just like what were you doing? Like I thought you

534
00:27:38,040 --> 00:27:40,560
Speaker 1: said you couldn't swim, well, like you can't go out there,

535
00:27:40,880 --> 00:27:43,119
Speaker 1: and I was just like I saw a sea turtle

536
00:27:43,240 --> 00:27:45,240
Speaker 1: and he's and I was like this huge thing and

537
00:27:45,240 --> 00:27:48,240
Speaker 1: he's like, oh that one and I was like, what

538
00:27:48,280 --> 00:27:50,840
Speaker 1: do you mean that one? And he goes you can't

539
00:27:50,880 --> 00:27:53,639
Speaker 1: follow those guys man like people die out there, and

540
00:27:53,640 --> 00:27:56,119
Speaker 1: I was like, what what do you mean They die

541
00:27:56,200 --> 00:28:01,280
Speaker 1: out there and the ocean only big waves. So apparently

542
00:28:01,320 --> 00:28:03,920
Speaker 1: I looked it up and I'm like, ten people die

543
00:28:03,920 --> 00:28:07,920
Speaker 1: a year doing this thing. So secrets out, like don't

544
00:28:08,000 --> 00:28:11,080
Speaker 1: follow seat turtles, and be careful if you only have

545
00:28:11,119 --> 00:28:15,000
Speaker 1: one noodle, like, be careful because you know, I'm living

546
00:28:15,040 --> 00:28:20,360
Speaker 1: life on the edge. That's my that's my Australia story.

547
00:28:20,560 --> 00:28:23,080
Speaker 1: That's the great barrier reason. But I'm not scared of anything.

548
00:28:23,280 --> 00:28:25,919
Speaker 1: I've put myself out there and I did it, and

549
00:28:26,000 --> 00:28:29,080
Speaker 1: I somehow problem solved. I really didn't problem solve at all.

550
00:28:29,720 --> 00:28:31,000
Speaker 1: I was gonna say it like, I don't know if

551
00:28:31,080 --> 00:28:35,080
Speaker 1: you're actually probably reemptively, I thought, oh, come swim with me,

552
00:28:35,400 --> 00:28:38,920
Speaker 1: this girl from Australia who is a good swimmer. Okay,

553
00:28:39,680 --> 00:28:41,680
Speaker 1: So I did it. So you had at least a

554
00:28:41,680 --> 00:28:45,880
Speaker 1: buddy to help you system. Yeah, the buddy system always works.

555
00:28:45,400 --> 00:28:48,880
Speaker 1: As you've traveled quite a bit, you've said, where's the

556
00:28:48,920 --> 00:28:52,800
Speaker 1: other place you went? Indonesia? Indonesia and Bali, Barcelona with

595
00:31:02,560 --> 00:31:04,640
Speaker 1: at certain times, but I went. Everyone thought I was

596
00:31:04,640 --> 00:31:07,560
Speaker 1: Turkish one. I'm not Turkish surprised, but they were. They

597
00:31:07,560 --> 00:31:11,520
Speaker 1: were speaking to me in Turkish. And also because I

598
00:31:11,560 --> 00:31:13,720
Speaker 1: was training for a marathon at the time, well the

599
00:31:13,840 --> 00:31:17,680
Speaker 1: only marathon I ran, so the one marathon, but I

600
00:31:17,720 --> 00:31:20,479
Speaker 1: was training and I was running around the streets of

601
00:31:20,720 --> 00:31:24,560
Speaker 1: Istanbul and people were they thought I was naked. I

602
00:31:24,600 --> 00:31:26,160
Speaker 1: was in shorts and a T shirt and they were like,

603
00:31:26,440 --> 00:31:28,640
Speaker 1: oh my god. But so they were like, so then

604
00:31:28,680 --> 00:31:32,280
Speaker 1: they thought because women are clothed, like the locals are

605
00:31:32,360 --> 00:31:35,680
Speaker 1: dressed because of the religion. So there, and so I

606
00:31:35,720 --> 00:31:39,640
Speaker 1: was running around everywhere and they're just like, what's this

607
00:31:39,720 --> 00:31:42,959
Speaker 1: woman doing showing her skin and I and so then

608
00:31:43,000 --> 00:31:46,760
Speaker 1: they were like, oh, she's running marathon, marathon and they

609
00:31:46,800 --> 00:31:50,640
Speaker 1: started screaming marathon at me, and I'm like marathon. I'm like,

610
00:31:50,800 --> 00:31:52,560
Speaker 1: I don't know, that's isn't that grease or something? And

611
00:31:52,640 --> 00:31:54,240
Speaker 1: I was just like what. And then I was like,

612
00:31:54,280 --> 00:31:56,440
Speaker 1: oh my god, they think I'm running a marathon right

613
00:31:56,480 --> 00:31:58,600
Speaker 1: now because I was in such a like I'm in

614
00:31:58,640 --> 00:32:01,680
Speaker 1: there taking out the seas and all that. So yeah,

615
00:32:01,800 --> 00:32:05,120
Speaker 1: I thought Turkey was so cool. There's this um like

616
00:32:05,200 --> 00:32:07,200
Speaker 1: people go to the Greek islands and stuff, which I've

617
00:32:07,240 --> 00:32:11,680
Speaker 1: never done. I've gone at Athens. But in Turkey, off

618
00:32:11,680 --> 00:32:15,160
Speaker 1: the coast is a city called Bodrum or Bodrum and

619
00:32:15,240 --> 00:32:18,400
Speaker 1: it's kind of like turquoise seeds. There's a castle there

620
00:32:18,720 --> 00:32:20,800
Speaker 1: and it's just gone through so much turmoil, I think

621
00:32:20,800 --> 00:32:23,960
Speaker 1: historically with the Ottoman Empire, and they've just like their

622
00:32:24,000 --> 00:32:26,600
Speaker 1: history is crazy. They've been suppressed for a long time.

623
00:32:26,640 --> 00:32:29,480
Speaker 1: They've gone through different sports and power and stuff like that.

624
00:32:29,560 --> 00:32:31,680
Speaker 1: I find all that fascinating, but you learn it when

625
00:32:31,680 --> 00:32:33,440
Speaker 1: you get to the country. Like I don't really know

626
00:32:33,520 --> 00:32:36,120
Speaker 1: all of this until I got there. Yeah, but man,

627
00:32:36,200 --> 00:32:39,280
Speaker 1: Turkey is like a secret cool country to go visit.

628
00:32:39,360 --> 00:32:40,640
Speaker 1: I mean, it's not a secret at all. It's just

629
00:32:40,720 --> 00:32:45,360
Speaker 1: really cool. It's not It's not like Atlantis or Wakanda, right, right,

630
00:32:46,240 --> 00:32:50,400
Speaker 1: I want to visit Wakanda. Okay, So is there a

631
00:32:50,400 --> 00:32:53,080
Speaker 1: place that you haven't been that you really really would

632
00:32:53,080 --> 00:32:56,440
Speaker 1: like to? Oh, I mean everywhere that I haven't visited.

Speaker 1: like ten years ago or whatever. And yeah, that's one

646
00:33:44,080 --> 00:33:45,800
Speaker 1: of the things that they make you do, you know,

657
00:34:16,480 --> 00:34:18,200
Speaker 1: I want to go, or yeah, that's how I ended

658
00:34:18,280 --> 00:34:20,839
Speaker 1: up in Bali. Really, I was just like, what's the

659
00:34:20,880 --> 00:34:23,680
Speaker 1: next furthest spot? And I was just like, yeah, I'll

660
00:34:23,719 --> 00:34:25,399
Speaker 1: go there. I went to Singapore and then I went

661
00:34:25,440 --> 00:34:28,040
Speaker 1: to Indonesia, and then I experienced a six point on

662
00:34:28,120 --> 00:34:31,839
Speaker 1: earthquake in Bali. Yeah. I was just like, Miles, did

663
00:34:31,840 --> 00:34:34,240
Speaker 1: you feel that one this morning? I did not, literally

664
00:34:34,280 --> 00:34:38,279
Speaker 1: there was this morning. I don't know. I'm I'm I've

665
00:34:38,360 --> 00:34:41,719
Speaker 1: yet to feel an earthquake. Everybody always asks me, did

666
00:34:41,719 --> 00:34:45,960
Speaker 1: you feel constantly shaking from all of the pent up

667
00:34:46,080 --> 00:34:50,320
Speaker 1: rage side of me? Yes, from angry Twitter account that

668
00:34:50,360 --> 00:34:55,520
Speaker 1: I'm gonna start. I didn't want to play this icebreaker game,

669
00:34:55,600 --> 00:34:59,560
Speaker 1: even though, like I am notorious for hating icebreakers, but like,

670
00:34:59,600 --> 00:35:04,759
Speaker 1: because I'm you hate something, myl this is too much exposition.

671
00:35:05,280 --> 00:35:09,719
Speaker 1: But let's play true truth truths. Okay, I've totally screwed

672
00:35:09,800 --> 00:35:12,160
Speaker 1: up on so much of the English language today. Let's

673
00:35:12,239 --> 00:35:15,560
Speaker 1: let's play two truths. And how about that? Great? We

674
00:35:15,719 --> 00:35:17,239
Speaker 1: all three of us can play. There three of us

675
00:35:17,239 --> 00:35:20,680
Speaker 1: in the studio, So like, let's do it, okay, one

676
00:35:20,800 --> 00:35:23,000
Speaker 1: who I know who wants to go first? Should I

677
00:35:23,040 --> 00:35:25,960
Speaker 1: go first? It not? It all right, I'll go first,

678
00:35:26,840 --> 00:35:30,560
Speaker 1: all right. Um, I was gonna say my first truth,

679
00:35:30,600 --> 00:35:34,480
Speaker 1: and it's like, no, that's not how this game works,

680
00:35:35,000 --> 00:35:40,080
Speaker 1: because you guys have to pick up again. All right.

681
00:35:40,600 --> 00:35:45,040
Speaker 1: So three things, all right, Um, even though I attend

682
00:35:45,040 --> 00:35:47,839
Speaker 1: a Colombia for four years, I never went to the

683
00:35:47,880 --> 00:35:51,080
Speaker 1: top of the Empire State Building. I've never been up

684
00:35:51,120 --> 00:35:57,319
Speaker 1: there in my life. Okay. Two. I was in the

685
00:35:57,920 --> 00:36:02,200
Speaker 1: Cleveland Orchestra Children's Core for years in my youth, and

686
00:36:02,239 --> 00:36:07,120
Speaker 1: I sang on stage at the U at Severance Hall,

687
00:36:07,160 --> 00:36:11,040
Speaker 1: which is one of the best orchestral U concert halls

688
00:36:11,040 --> 00:36:14,879
Speaker 1: in the country. Okay, I forgotten Number one, never been

689
00:36:14,880 --> 00:36:19,000
Speaker 1: at the top of the Empire stage, yes, um? And

690
00:36:19,520 --> 00:36:25,160
Speaker 1: number three, number three, number three Um. Before I moved

691
00:36:25,480 --> 00:36:28,839
Speaker 1: to Los Angeles to cover the Los Angeles rooms, I've

692
00:36:28,880 --> 00:36:37,080
Speaker 1: never spent any time in southern California. Okay. I'm gonna

693
00:36:37,120 --> 00:36:40,440
Speaker 1: let you go first on this, Okay, because I think

694
00:36:41,200 --> 00:36:51,040
Speaker 1: I'm gonna guess now the lie is that well, I

695
00:36:51,080 --> 00:36:53,640
Speaker 1: feel like I feel like, well, I feel like it's

696
00:36:53,640 --> 00:36:55,800
Speaker 1: true that you've never gone to the top of the Empire.

697
00:36:56,400 --> 00:36:59,720
Speaker 1: That's my thinking because crowds sounds a lot like something

698
00:36:59,760 --> 00:37:04,040
Speaker 1: that Miles hates. Okay, it's overrated. There's too many people.

699
00:37:04,400 --> 00:37:07,920
Speaker 1: So that's the truth. We'll tag team here, Matt. Okay, um,

700
00:37:07,960 --> 00:37:12,120
Speaker 1: and I think that I'm gonna say the lies that

701
00:37:12,160 --> 00:37:15,960
Speaker 1: he sung. You don't think he's a singer, just just

702
00:37:16,000 --> 00:37:20,520
Speaker 1: taking a wild guess here. I can promise you Miles

703
00:37:20,600 --> 00:37:24,919
Speaker 1: is a singer. Oh really, yeah, that one is true? Okay, yes,

704
00:37:25,080 --> 00:37:30,879
Speaker 1: so that's Cleveland Children's or what's what's your Are you soprano? Like?

705
00:37:30,960 --> 00:37:38,799
Speaker 1: What's your chin? Sopranos? Like the highest voice? Like? I mean,

706
00:37:38,880 --> 00:37:42,359
Speaker 1: I don't know. I didn't even have you ever play

707
00:37:42,360 --> 00:37:45,160
Speaker 1: a prince song around him? Just do it any and

708
00:37:45,200 --> 00:37:50,919
Speaker 1: one of them, preferably kiss preferably. He shut down the

709
00:37:51,000 --> 00:37:56,840
Speaker 1: karaoke bar in San Jose. Yeah, oh wow. That's in

710
00:37:56,880 --> 00:38:00,840
Speaker 1: addition to that and Papa shot. Those are his two skills. Yes,

711
00:38:01,320 --> 00:38:04,160
Speaker 1: that's where we draw the line. Though. He's very good

712
00:38:04,160 --> 00:38:14,280
Speaker 1: at piano too. Okay, wow, what are you doing here? Oh? Cool? Okay,

713
00:38:14,400 --> 00:38:17,640
Speaker 1: so I really like sports and I also like sports.

714
00:38:17,760 --> 00:38:20,400
Speaker 1: Um what so wait do you think which one do

715
00:38:20,440 --> 00:38:23,239
Speaker 1: you think is the lie that he's never spent time

716
00:38:23,239 --> 00:38:26,200
Speaker 1: in southern Calcia? Moving out here? Okay? Well I was

717
00:38:26,239 --> 00:38:31,600
Speaker 1: already wrong. So Okay, what's the what's okay? So I

718
00:38:31,760 --> 00:38:38,960
Speaker 1: said it wrong. So I missed my own game. Technically

719
00:38:39,000 --> 00:38:43,399
Speaker 1: I did two lies in the truth. But because I

720
00:38:43,440 --> 00:38:46,920
Speaker 1: have been to the top of the Empire State Building.

721
00:38:47,960 --> 00:38:50,000
Speaker 1: But it was when I was eight years old, and

722
00:38:50,120 --> 00:38:53,640
Speaker 1: seven years old, I know, I thought for sure you

723
00:38:53,680 --> 00:38:55,880
Speaker 1: were going to be against that. But I did not

724
00:38:56,000 --> 00:38:58,240
Speaker 1: do that when I was in college. That was actually

725
00:38:58,239 --> 00:38:59,919
Speaker 1: a good guess that that would have been the lie.

726
00:39:00,480 --> 00:39:02,560
Speaker 1: I also did spend time in southern californ I was

727
00:39:02,600 --> 00:39:04,160
Speaker 1: trying to say that I did, and then I said

728
00:39:04,200 --> 00:39:06,840
Speaker 1: I didn't, and I it was like a double negative.

729
00:39:06,880 --> 00:39:08,560
Speaker 1: And I messed it up because I had an internship

730
00:39:08,800 --> 00:39:13,759
Speaker 1: at Yahoo Sports in Santa Monica in twenty thirteen. So that, yeah,

731
00:39:13,800 --> 00:39:17,400
Speaker 1: I messed up my own game. Sorry, guess, Oh my gosh,

732
00:39:17,440 --> 00:39:19,520
Speaker 1: but this is not supposed to be for people to

733
00:39:19,560 --> 00:39:21,239
Speaker 1: get to know me. It's supposed to like that the

734
00:39:21,320 --> 00:39:24,080
Speaker 1: leader has set the tone. Yeah, we can screw up

735
00:39:24,120 --> 00:39:27,120
Speaker 1: on these. Yes, you can't do any worse than I did. Guess.

736
00:39:27,120 --> 00:39:30,120
Speaker 1: I feeling all of the truths and the lies. However

737
00:39:30,160 --> 00:39:33,040
Speaker 1: many I decide to tell Miles to set the standard

738
00:39:33,120 --> 00:39:35,480
Speaker 1: that it's okay to do as many as you want. Um,

739
00:39:35,520 --> 00:39:37,960
Speaker 1: I've already like revealed stuff about me, so it's more

740
00:39:38,040 --> 00:39:40,719
Speaker 1: just like you know, oh, were they listening? You know,

741
00:39:40,880 --> 00:39:44,400
Speaker 1: like I got think of other things? Yeah. Um I

00:39:44,480 --> 00:39:47,720
Speaker 1: wrote some stuff down in my my edgy phone because

743
00:39:47,760 --> 00:39:52,800
Speaker 1: I don't have a case on it edgy. Okay, um,

744
00:39:52,800 --> 00:39:55,640
Speaker 1: wait do you want to go, Matt? Are you no?

00:40:39,920 --> 00:40:42,000
Speaker 1: mean like that's like a really random thing to live.

756
00:40:42,200 --> 00:40:45,960
Speaker 1: Yeah yeah yeah yeah. Is that is that? The lot's true?

757
00:40:46,560 --> 00:40:49,279
Speaker 1: That's true? What? Wait? No, no no, no, no no, no, no, yes,

758
00:40:49,520 --> 00:40:52,680
Speaker 1: explain that part. Didn't we just say it was true? Yeah? Yeah,

759
00:40:52,680 --> 00:40:54,520
Speaker 1: so we're right, you're right, Okay, so now we got

760
00:40:54,520 --> 00:40:56,600
Speaker 1: a fifty fifty okay, yeah, yeah, yeah, but I do

761
00:40:56,680 --> 00:40:58,879
Speaker 1: want to know how the heck you decided why did you?

762
00:40:58,880 --> 00:41:02,920
Speaker 1: You know, I can't I can't give a logical explanation

763
00:41:02,960 --> 00:41:07,759
Speaker 1: because I was too young to really know. I was

764
00:41:07,840 --> 00:41:10,520
Speaker 1: like a toddler. Oh so you can fit way more

765
00:41:10,760 --> 00:41:16,720
Speaker 1: in your nose now, yeah, we can test that theory.

766
00:41:16,760 --> 00:41:22,279
Speaker 1: At some point you were either the saxophonists in your

767
00:41:22,280 --> 00:41:25,920
Speaker 1: middle school band or I forgot what the second one,

768
00:41:25,960 --> 00:41:28,479
Speaker 1: never seen Titanic. But also my mother had to rush

769
00:41:28,520 --> 00:41:30,800
Speaker 1: me to the emergency room, and she was by herself

770
00:41:30,800 --> 00:41:34,040
Speaker 1: because my father was out of town on business and

771
00:41:34,200 --> 00:41:35,400
Speaker 1: had to like call him in the middle of the

772
00:41:35,480 --> 00:41:41,040
Speaker 1: night frantically, and our son put popcorn colonels. Yeah, so wow,

773
00:41:41,560 --> 00:41:43,799
Speaker 1: that's how that went. So all right, you're down to

774
00:41:43,960 --> 00:41:48,320
Speaker 1: never seen the Titanic and played the saxophone. I feel

775
00:41:48,360 --> 00:41:52,880
Speaker 1: like like Matt is also a musical, musically inclined person,

776
00:41:52,880 --> 00:41:57,280
Speaker 1: So yeah, I could believe that you've never seen the Titanic. Yeah,

777
00:41:57,320 --> 00:42:01,719
Speaker 1: that's correct, we won. Yes, No, you can believe that

778
00:42:01,760 --> 00:42:05,319
Speaker 1: I've never seen the Titanic. Yeah, you've seen it. Two

779
00:42:05,360 --> 00:42:08,239
Speaker 1: truths in a lie we all know that one's true too.

780
00:42:09,080 --> 00:42:13,280
Speaker 1: The lie is my saxophone. The saxophone. Yeah, we're terrible.

781
00:42:15,480 --> 00:42:19,680
Speaker 1: This was an awful idea. I hope this is entertaining

782
00:42:19,680 --> 00:42:23,520
Speaker 1: to listen to. It's not pretty entertaining for us. I

783
00:42:23,560 --> 00:42:28,000
Speaker 1: did not play the saxophone ever. I played piano for

784
00:42:28,040 --> 00:42:30,920
Speaker 1: a while and that got boring. Um So then I

785
00:42:30,960 --> 00:42:34,080
Speaker 1: switched to drums, and that's what I did in middle school,

786
00:42:34,640 --> 00:42:38,840
Speaker 1: and then got my first guitar in college. So okay,

787
00:42:39,160 --> 00:42:42,640
Speaker 1: no jazz, no brass for me. We've set the standard

788
00:42:42,760 --> 00:42:46,600
Speaker 1: really high here. Yeah, okay, so you have a lot

789
00:42:46,640 --> 00:42:49,000
Speaker 1: to live up to in your two truths and a

790
00:42:49,040 --> 00:42:53,240
Speaker 1: lie or two lies in a truth, yeah matter lies,

791
00:42:53,360 --> 00:42:59,000
Speaker 1: no truth okay? Um okay, um, so two truths and

792
00:42:59,120 --> 00:43:01,520
Speaker 1: a lie and two of them in that order, because

793
00:43:01,600 --> 00:43:04,400
Speaker 1: now that would reveal things or maybe I will just

794
00:43:04,560 --> 00:43:10,399
Speaker 1: throw you all off, okay. Um. I was at one

795
00:43:10,480 --> 00:43:13,879
Speaker 1: point a drummer in a band. Um I one time

796
00:43:14,000 --> 00:43:20,360
Speaker 1: eight twenty chicken nuggets at once and um at the

797
00:43:20,440 --> 00:43:23,000
Speaker 1: same time, or like in one in one sitting, okay,

798
00:43:23,520 --> 00:43:27,160
Speaker 1: And that's like completely not impressed. I'm not impressed by

799
00:43:27,200 --> 00:43:29,080
Speaker 1: that either. I mean, like, if I go to if

800
00:43:29,120 --> 00:43:33,040
Speaker 1: I'm getting chicken McNuggets like you're eating twenty? Are you?

801
00:43:33,360 --> 00:43:34,960
Speaker 1: That's a at least I did when I was in

802
00:43:35,080 --> 00:43:36,360
Speaker 1: high school. I gotta be honest with you, I have

803
00:43:36,480 --> 00:43:39,960
Speaker 1: not like remember those, uh, the fifty nuggets, the deals

804
00:43:40,000 --> 00:43:42,200
Speaker 1: they were doing with the fifty piece nuggets? Yeah, oh

805
00:43:43,360 --> 00:43:46,239
Speaker 1: you know those were dangerous anyway, Like my bad, my

806
00:43:46,360 --> 00:43:49,920
Speaker 1: numbers off? Oh, what's your third thing? Um? Then I

807
00:43:49,960 --> 00:43:55,160
Speaker 1: almost died overseas twice. I'm finding that one hard to believe.

808
00:43:56,360 --> 00:44:08,440
Speaker 1: Died overseas twice? Yeah I did? Oh oh man, we

809
00:44:08,520 --> 00:44:11,360
Speaker 1: are the wars really bad. So you're either a drummer

810
00:44:11,400 --> 00:44:13,480
Speaker 1: in a band or what was the second one? I

811
00:44:13,600 --> 00:44:17,200
Speaker 1: forgot you? However many chicken nuggets that you've both insulted

812
00:44:17,280 --> 00:44:20,880
Speaker 1: me with, you think that like you don't know how

813
00:44:20,920 --> 00:44:23,680
Speaker 1: many chicken nuggets it was. So I feel like that's

814
00:44:23,719 --> 00:44:25,800
Speaker 1: the truth and the lie that you were a drummer

815
00:44:25,840 --> 00:44:27,480
Speaker 1: in a band, because I feel like, at some point

816
00:44:27,560 --> 00:44:29,480
Speaker 1: of eating too many chicken nuggets in one sitting, you're like,

817
00:44:29,600 --> 00:44:32,120
Speaker 1: how many have I eaten? I don't know. Well, the

818
00:44:32,200 --> 00:44:35,480
Speaker 1: thing is I've someone dared me too. You guys are right,

819
00:44:35,480 --> 00:44:38,319
Speaker 1: because I screwed the whole thing up also to stay

820
00:44:38,360 --> 00:44:41,400
Speaker 1: on brand here, Um, I don't want that. Dared me

821
00:44:41,480 --> 00:44:43,959
Speaker 1: in college, like I bet you can't even eat twenty

822
00:44:44,080 --> 00:44:46,280
Speaker 1: chicken nuggets in one sitting. But maybe I was fifty

823
00:44:46,440 --> 00:44:48,000
Speaker 1: and that's why I don't remember, because I was like, oh,

824
00:44:48,120 --> 00:44:51,360
Speaker 1: I wouldn't admit that, but I was just like so

825
00:44:51,600 --> 00:44:53,720
Speaker 1: easy like I he was like, I'll give you fifty

826
00:44:53,760 --> 00:44:55,840
Speaker 1: bucks for it, and I was like, dude, that's the

827
00:44:57,239 --> 00:44:59,640
Speaker 1: fifty bucks for fifty chicken nuggets seems to make more

828
00:44:59,719 --> 00:45:03,080
Speaker 1: sense than fifty bucks for twenty for in my personal opinion,

829
00:45:03,120 --> 00:45:04,880
Speaker 1: that is my own. Yeah, I don't know. I went

830
00:45:05,000 --> 00:45:07,080
Speaker 1: for it and I was fine, Like there wasn't even

831
00:45:07,120 --> 00:45:09,400
Speaker 1: any issue, Like next day, I was hungry again and

832
00:45:09,520 --> 00:45:13,080
Speaker 1: life was fine. So yeah that, Um, I am a

833
00:45:13,280 --> 00:45:18,280
Speaker 1: great air drummer, so that's where things the magic happens.

834
00:45:18,440 --> 00:45:21,200
Speaker 1: Like I can air drum the heck out of every song.

835
00:45:21,520 --> 00:45:24,440
Speaker 1: I'm a really good air guitarist. Oh yeah, I'm a

836
00:45:24,520 --> 00:45:29,200
Speaker 1: good air singer and a good air bassist. Yeah okay,

837
00:45:29,320 --> 00:45:35,400
Speaker 1: I slapped that bass like yeah, yeah, I shouldn't. I

838
00:45:35,560 --> 00:45:38,600
Speaker 1: probably shouldn't do that. I camera all right, let's go

839
00:45:38,719 --> 00:45:41,839

Speaker 1: because he's cool and has all these cool techniques, and

850
00:46:20,440 --> 00:46:24,360
Speaker 1: so I don't superhero stinking with the black theme. I

851
00:46:24,440 --> 00:46:27,080
Speaker 1: got it. Yeah, Well, first of all, Batman's not a superhero,

852
00:46:27,160 --> 00:46:29,160

Speaker 1: pictures of random people and talk to them all day.

858
00:46:48,920 --> 00:46:50,839
Speaker 1: So it's like in the same vein. I just love

859

Speaker 1: love love dogs. All right, are you a morning person

862
00:47:01,880 --> 00:47:05,080
Speaker 1: or a night person? It depends what time morning is

863
00:47:05,280 --> 00:47:08,840
Speaker 1: for I don't know, like three am. Not a morning

864
00:47:08,920 --> 00:47:12,239
Speaker 1: person like seven or eight in the morning, Like maybe

865
00:47:12,320 --> 00:47:15,000
Speaker 1: eight o'clock in the morning. Like I'm totally like folders

866
00:47:15,040 --> 00:47:17,480

Speaker 1: the best coffee ever. It's like Colombian good coffee. Um.

869
00:47:25,440 --> 00:47:27,440
Speaker 1: But I also like staying up at night to watch games.

870
00:47:27,640 --> 00:47:30,239
Speaker 1: So it just kind of depends on the two days

Speaker 1: I don't know. I don't eat a lot of strange things.

880
00:48:05,000 --> 00:48:07,800
Speaker 1: Is I'm allergic to everything? So I'm scared of everything

920
00:50:45,680 --> 00:50:48,600
Speaker 1: I love New York pizza, but I can't eat it. Allergic,

921
00:50:48,719 --> 00:50:50,960
Speaker 1: but man like, I still remember the days where I

922
00:50:51,000 --> 00:50:53,520
Speaker 1: would eat a New York some pizza every day after

923
00:50:53,640 --> 00:50:57,600
Speaker 1: back you fold it to fold it, you already saw, Matt,

924
00:50:58,400 --> 00:51:02,080
Speaker 1: what are you doing being normal? No, that's normal because

925
00:51:02,120 --> 00:51:05,560
Speaker 1: you let the oil drip off. Drip drip came through

926
00:51:05,640 --> 00:51:07,760
Speaker 1: dripping like it came from the New York sliced pizza.

927
00:51:07,840 --> 00:51:10,240
Speaker 1: That was Cardi bies like. No, but like the oil

928
00:51:10,360 --> 00:51:13,360
Speaker 1: drips off, then you rip the crust and then you

929
00:51:13,480 --> 00:51:15,520
Speaker 1: open it and you can dip the crust like that

930
00:51:15,680 --> 00:51:17,920
Speaker 1: was my move. And you would put like a reganeau

931
00:51:18,080 --> 00:51:21,319
Speaker 1: garlic whatever. I'm just all red pepper flakes. Man. Yeah,

932
00:51:21,360 --> 00:51:22,759
Speaker 1: but you would dip it in the oil and then

933
00:51:22,800 --> 00:51:25,440
Speaker 1: it's like oiled bread and then you eat that and

934
00:51:25,520 --> 00:51:27,520
Speaker 1: then you get the best part of the cheese. And

935
00:51:28,640 --> 00:51:31,760
Speaker 1: I don't know, I'm from the Midwest, so like eating

936
00:51:31,880 --> 00:51:33,719
Speaker 1: you guys make it sound like such a thing. Mine

937
00:51:33,840 --> 00:51:39,640
Speaker 1: was just fork food. No, the mayor of specifically, just

938
00:51:39,680 --> 00:51:43,239
Speaker 1: like any food. Just get it into my mouth hole

939
00:51:43,280 --> 00:51:46,680
Speaker 1: as quick as Possi di Blasio would eat. He ate

940
00:51:46,760 --> 00:51:51,799
Speaker 1: with a fork and knife, like Everywheah, you can't eat

941
00:51:52,120 --> 00:51:55,239
Speaker 1: a freaking fork and knife pizza. In New York anywhere else,

942
00:51:55,360 --> 00:51:57,480
Speaker 1: I'm fine with it, but not an n y C.

943
00:51:57,760 --> 00:51:59,239
Speaker 1: So that's my favorite food, but I can't eat it,

944
00:51:59,239 --> 00:52:01,840
Speaker 1: so I would say, like sheer tacos outside of that.

945
00:52:02,320 --> 00:52:07,400
Speaker 1: All right, who is your favorite musical artist? Card you know? Um?

946
00:52:07,719 --> 00:52:10,720
Speaker 1: Oh favorite? I don't know because I listened to everything

947
00:52:11,600 --> 00:52:14,320
Speaker 1: just three ok, jay Z. I love him because I

948
00:52:14,400 --> 00:52:21,680
Speaker 1: grew up listening to him, um Chicago like the bands. Yeah,

949
00:52:22,520 --> 00:52:25,279
Speaker 1: because because when I was when I was growing up,

950
00:52:25,440 --> 00:52:27,600
Speaker 1: my dad, So my dad put me on my dad's

951
00:52:27,600 --> 00:52:29,839
Speaker 1: a Puerto Rican like grew up in Umakau and then

952
00:52:29,960 --> 00:52:33,279
Speaker 1: flew um at assuming you can get there, of flew

953
00:52:33,400 --> 00:52:36,160
Speaker 1: from Macao to New York. Actually because of a hurricane,

954
00:52:36,239 --> 00:52:39,080
Speaker 1: their house flew down. So he as a kid was

955
00:52:39,080 --> 00:52:41,920
Speaker 1: always made fun of for speaking Spanish, and so he

956
00:52:42,320 --> 00:52:44,320
Speaker 1: like learned all his English off of music. So he

957
00:52:44,440 --> 00:52:46,959
Speaker 1: was big on like, I gotta listen to Americanized music,

958
00:52:47,320 --> 00:52:49,840
Speaker 1: and so I knew all of his tunes because he

959
00:52:49,920 --> 00:52:52,200
Speaker 1: was like, you're gonna learn English, and so he put

960
00:52:52,239 --> 00:52:53,440
Speaker 1: me on all these things. But one of the things

961
00:52:53,480 --> 00:52:56,279
Speaker 1: I always remember was Chicago Saturday in the Park that song,

962
00:52:56,800 --> 00:52:59,239
Speaker 1: because he would drive me to my baseball practices and

963
00:52:59,360 --> 00:53:02,400
Speaker 1: play that song and I was like, yeah, rocking, so

964
00:53:02,600 --> 00:53:05,400
Speaker 1: that that band and that song in particular always brings

965
00:53:05,480 --> 00:53:08,440
Speaker 1: me back to like my innocence and youth of baseball,

966
00:53:08,520 --> 00:53:10,239
Speaker 1: which was like the globe always makes me think of

967
00:53:10,280 --> 00:53:13,200
Speaker 1: baseball too, and like there was just my dad made

968
00:53:13,280 --> 00:53:16,080
Speaker 1: like some highlight video for our little league team and

969
00:53:16,200 --> 00:53:18,520
Speaker 1: he used that song as like to show all like

970
00:53:19,239 --> 00:53:22,840
Speaker 1: air drum, like barbecue and like grill in between games,

971

974
00:53:37,360 --> 00:53:39,279
Speaker 1: I will sing the heck out of any song that

975
00:53:39,360 --> 00:53:40,960
Speaker 1: he has. I need to know is one of my

976
00:53:41,040 --> 00:53:43,959
Speaker 1: favorite songs. I only like his Spanish stuff. No, I'm sorry,

977
00:53:44,080 --> 00:53:46,920
Speaker 1: so I'm not familiar with this stuf. But I do

978
00:53:47,120 --> 00:53:50,680
Speaker 1: really like Hector Laveau. Oh yeah, Anthony played in that

979
00:53:50,800 --> 00:53:52,920
Speaker 1: movie he did One is a good movie too. And

980
00:53:53,000 --> 00:53:55,399
Speaker 1: this is terrible. But I've heard a couple other port

981
00:53:55,480 --> 00:53:57,520
Speaker 1: Ricans agree with me. Well, in general, I think it's

982
00:53:57,520 --> 00:53:59,440
Speaker 1: agree with me, so I feel like it's okay. But

983
00:53:59,560 --> 00:54:04,600
Speaker 1: Hector of mind Jews like legend right, legend. However, Mark

984
00:54:04,640 --> 00:54:07,760
Speaker 1: Anthony redid a lot of Hector level songs for that movie,

985
00:54:08,480 --> 00:54:11,560
Speaker 1: and I liked the Mark Anthony versions of the Hector

986
00:54:11,680 --> 00:54:18,080
Speaker 1: level songs. Yeah, I'm just owned from the community. Wow.

Speaker 1: to do the like little raspy like whatever, Like he

989
00:54:25,800 --> 00:54:28,480
