23
00:01:16,840 --> 00:01:19,399
Speaker 1: I think so. I'd know myself fairly well. So I

24
00:01:19,440 --> 00:01:21,360
Speaker 1: have to do some research on myself just to make

25
00:01:21,400 --> 00:01:23,399
Speaker 1: sure I was up to speed with everything you've done.

26
00:01:23,520 --> 00:01:25,160

27
00:01:25,240 --> 00:01:28,560
Speaker 2: Okay, Well, we got some really fun questions specifically here

28
00:01:28,560 --> 00:01:29,000

29
00:01:29,319 --> 00:01:31,280
Speaker 3: I got the first one here, and it's about a

30
00:01:31,319 --> 00:01:35,120
Speaker 3: promise you made last weekly. The email starts. I was

31
00:01:35,160 --> 00:01:37,560
Speaker 3: watching last week's Drop episode on YouTube, and when I

32
00:01:37,600 --> 00:01:39,959
Speaker 3: heard Lee Ellis was planning on writing a book about

33
00:01:40,000 --> 00:01:43,520
Speaker 3: his life in basketball journey, I got so excited that

34
00:01:43,600 --> 00:01:46,399
Speaker 3: I paused the video to write you this email. Please

35
00:01:46,440 --> 00:01:48,720
Speaker 3: make this happen, Lely. I am going to buy it

36
00:01:48,800 --> 00:01:53,520
Speaker 3: for sure. That's Michael in Denmark. So has there been

37
00:01:54,240 --> 00:01:59,640
Speaker 3: any headway made on this book basketball journey, memoir whatever

38
00:01:59,680 --> 00:01:59,920
Speaker 3: you call.

39
00:02:00,120 --> 00:02:02,720
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, we're still working on exactly what it is.

40
00:02:03,400 --> 00:02:05,640
Speaker 1: It's a sort of collection of a few stories and

41
00:02:06,040 --> 00:02:09,440
Speaker 1: tales and you know, sort of intertwined with basketball throughout

42
00:02:09,440 --> 00:02:12,840
Speaker 1: my life. Yeah, I've started, I've started writing.

43
00:02:13,680 --> 00:02:18,200
Speaker 4: I've decided to go with stories antos at this stage. Yes,

44
00:02:18,600 --> 00:02:20,360
Speaker 4: mister synonyms over here, I.

45
00:02:20,280 --> 00:02:23,400
Speaker 1: Know, it's it's it's not going to be in chronological order.

46
00:02:23,440 --> 00:02:25,760
Speaker 1: Probably it's going to be a bit like the Tarantino movie.

47
00:02:25,760 --> 00:02:28,560
Speaker 1: It might sort of jump around a little bit, sort

48
00:02:28,560 --> 00:02:29,600
Speaker 1: of blend and link in.

49
00:02:29,639 --> 00:02:31,920
Speaker 2: But the thread is going to be basketballs at the idea.

50
00:02:32,200 --> 00:02:35,600
Speaker 1: Yeah, so definitely, it's it's it's heavily like basketball is

51
00:02:35,639 --> 00:02:38,079
Speaker 1: the sort of like backbone of the book. And how

52
00:02:38,320 --> 00:02:40,480
Speaker 1: you know, it took me to various places and I

53
00:02:40,480 --> 00:02:43,560
Speaker 1: had some you know, various stories and then how other

54
00:02:43,600 --> 00:02:45,600
Speaker 1: things kind of link into basketball? Yeah?

55
00:02:45,800 --> 00:02:48,880
Speaker 2: Sure, yeah, Okay, so you actually in all like you've

56
00:02:48,919 --> 00:02:51,959
Speaker 2: sat down and started writing a chapter. I guess at

57
00:02:52,000 --> 00:02:54,320
Speaker 2: the very least, I've or laying out your chapter that.

58
00:02:54,720 --> 00:02:58,520
Speaker 1: I've probably got about five or six chapter ideas, And

59
00:02:58,760 --> 00:03:01,520
Speaker 1: how many chapters do you want? We're still working on that.

60
00:03:01,560 --> 00:03:03,480
Speaker 1: You know, it's a bit like a kill Bill. I

61
00:03:03,560 --> 00:03:04,799
Speaker 1: might come back in twenty years and.

62
00:03:06,600 --> 00:03:09,639
Speaker 3: The chapter is just called Quentin kill Bill.

63
00:03:11,639 --> 00:03:12,440
Speaker 2: Got five or six?

64
00:03:12,520 --> 00:03:12,720
Speaker 3: Yeah?

65
00:03:12,840 --> 00:03:14,680
Speaker 1: Now do you have five or six ideas?

66
00:03:14,880 --> 00:03:15,240
Speaker 2: Yeah?

67
00:03:15,440 --> 00:03:15,639
Speaker 5: Yeah?

68
00:03:16,000 --> 00:03:17,760
Speaker 2: What do you what do you feel comfortable sharing with

69
00:03:17,880 --> 00:03:20,520
Speaker 2: us the ideas you have or actually one you've maybe

70
00:03:20,560 --> 00:03:22,799
Speaker 2: started really flushing out, like it's up to.

71
00:03:22,760 --> 00:03:25,280
Speaker 1: You yeah, well, I've got I've actually got one chapter

72
00:03:25,320 --> 00:03:27,960
Speaker 1: that that I'm prepared to read. I feel like George

73
00:03:28,040 --> 00:03:29,760
Speaker 1: mcflying back to the future, you know how he's writing

74
00:03:29,760 --> 00:03:32,200
Speaker 1: a book, but he doesn't want to share it with anybody.

75
00:03:32,200 --> 00:03:33,520
Speaker 1: He's super nervous about it.

76
00:03:34,000 --> 00:03:36,240
Speaker 4: I mean, if that's what happened in a Tarantino movie,

77
00:03:36,520 --> 00:03:39,760
Speaker 4: maybe I would know what you're talking about.

78
00:03:40,440 --> 00:03:42,800
Speaker 2: You're going to read us an entire chapter. It's not long,

79
00:03:42,800 --> 00:03:43,320
Speaker 2: it's not long.

80
00:03:43,560 --> 00:03:46,280
Speaker 1: It's yeah, yeah, yeah, it's the first chapter. And I thought,

81
00:03:46,320 --> 00:03:48,240
Speaker 1: you know what, why not start there. I have a

82
00:03:48,240 --> 00:03:50,640
Speaker 1: few other ones that I thought I'll start with this one.

83
00:03:50,680 --> 00:03:54,040
Speaker 3: I mean, good, good, good, this will this will make

84
00:03:54,080 --> 00:03:56,640
Speaker 3: it happen. Yeah, I mean, that's get to exist.

85
00:03:56,720 --> 00:03:58,960
Speaker 1: That's the other thing I want to actually, like, I've

86
00:03:59,000 --> 00:04:01,160
Speaker 1: read it to my wife, but I want to sort

87
00:04:01,200 --> 00:04:03,960
Speaker 1: of I'm really nervous, but I'm as like, I want

88
00:04:03,960 --> 00:04:05,240
Speaker 1: to read it to you guys. But then I realize

89
00:04:05,240 --> 00:04:07,280
Speaker 1: I'm actually telling it to you know, thousands of people

90
00:04:07,360 --> 00:04:07,760
Speaker 1: right now.

91
00:04:07,800 --> 00:04:11,280
Speaker 2: So yeah, but this podcast, this podcast turning into an

92
00:04:11,320 --> 00:04:13,760
Speaker 2: ideal book. Yeah, from our very own eyes. All right,

93
00:04:14,040 --> 00:04:15,040
Speaker 2: all right, okay.

94
00:04:14,840 --> 00:04:18,000
Speaker 1: Here we go, chapter chapter one. One. Okay, Chapter one

95
00:04:18,279 --> 00:04:24,280
Speaker 1: starting Out is the title I Love This. The game

96
00:04:24,360 --> 00:04:27,400
Speaker 1: was essentially over. I knew that for two reasons. Firstly,

97
00:04:27,640 --> 00:04:29,400
Speaker 1: there was only a minute or so left on the clock,

98
00:04:29,440 --> 00:04:31,560
Speaker 1: and secondly, in the most obvious reason, I was on

99
00:04:31,600 --> 00:04:33,719
Speaker 1: the court. That was a sure sign that the result

100
00:04:33,760 --> 00:04:36,120
Speaker 1: was as good as decided. As a twelve year old

101
00:04:36,120 --> 00:04:38,320
Speaker 1: on my high school basketball team, I only saw action

102
00:04:38,360 --> 00:04:41,240
Speaker 1: when the outcome was a formality. In this case, we

103
00:04:41,240 --> 00:04:43,039
Speaker 1: were about to lose our only game for the year,

104
00:04:43,240 --> 00:04:45,760
Speaker 1: but that also meant we wouldn't win the state championship.

105
00:04:46,279 --> 00:04:48,040
Speaker 1: It sucked to be so close and come up short,

106
00:04:48,120 --> 00:04:49,880
Speaker 1: but we were pretty lucky to be in that position

107
00:04:49,880 --> 00:04:52,280
Speaker 1: in the first place. Our offense, in fact, our entire

108
00:04:52,360 --> 00:04:55,240
Speaker 1: game plan, relied on one player. He was so much

109
00:04:55,279 --> 00:04:57,800
Speaker 1: better than everyone else on our team and any opponent

110
00:04:57,880 --> 00:04:59,960
Speaker 1: that we had faced. He had carried us so far,

111
00:05:00,200 --> 00:05:02,240
Speaker 1: almost all the way, but it wasn't going to be

112
00:05:02,400 --> 00:05:04,800
Speaker 1: enough for me. I was just happy to be seeing

113
00:05:04,800 --> 00:05:06,720
Speaker 1: some court time, and now that I was on, I

114
00:05:06,800 --> 00:05:09,520
Speaker 1: was desperate to shoot. I had been a deep rotation

115
00:05:09,640 --> 00:05:12,200
Speaker 1: player all season long, and I wanted to win. But

116
00:05:12,320 --> 00:05:14,400
Speaker 1: I really really wanted to get the ball in my

117
00:05:14,440 --> 00:05:17,280
Speaker 1: hands and take a shot too. There's only so much

118
00:05:17,360 --> 00:05:19,680
Speaker 1: cheerleading you can do on the bench before you want

119
00:05:19,680 --> 00:05:21,839
Speaker 1: to be the guy your teammates are cheering on. And

120
00:05:21,920 --> 00:05:24,280
Speaker 1: my teammates or some didn't even want me on the team,

121
00:05:24,360 --> 00:05:26,479
Speaker 1: let alone on the court. But with the game virtually

122
00:05:26,480 --> 00:05:29,120
Speaker 1: over there, I was a skinny, nervous kid hoping not

123
00:05:29,200 --> 00:05:31,839
Speaker 1: to mess up, and somehow the ball came to me

124
00:05:31,880 --> 00:05:34,360
Speaker 1: on an inbounds pass. Knowing it wouldn't come back if

125
00:05:34,360 --> 00:05:36,919
Speaker 1: I passed it, I turned, took a dribble and found

126
00:05:36,920 --> 00:05:38,719
Speaker 1: myself at the three point line and the left wing,

127
00:05:39,440 --> 00:05:42,000
Speaker 1: and I let it fly. I could feel the looks

128
00:05:42,000 --> 00:05:44,279
Speaker 1: of disdain from my teammates as a ball left my fingers.

129
00:05:44,640 --> 00:05:46,760
Speaker 1: It felt like it was in the air forever, but

130
00:05:46,800 --> 00:05:48,919
Speaker 1: it also felt good. It looked good.

131
00:05:49,560 --> 00:05:49,920
Speaker 5: Bang.

132
00:05:50,400 --> 00:05:52,200
Speaker 1: The ball hit the back of the rim and dropped in.

133
00:05:52,520 --> 00:05:54,600
Speaker 1: What a feeling. But I didn't know what to do

134
00:05:54,680 --> 00:05:58,000
Speaker 1: next celebrate. It was a garbage time basket, act cool.

135
00:05:58,200 --> 00:06:00,919
Speaker 1: I'd never hit one before in my life, so I

136
00:06:00,960 --> 00:06:03,359
Speaker 1: don't remember exactly what I did, but I do remember

137
00:06:03,400 --> 00:06:05,120
Speaker 1: seeing one of our coaches get up off the bench,

138
00:06:05,240 --> 00:06:07,479
Speaker 1: look at me, and pump his fist. It felt great.

139
00:06:07,720 --> 00:06:09,520
Speaker 1: He had been my lone supporter on the team, so

140
00:06:09,560 --> 00:06:12,320
Speaker 1: he probably felt some vindication for putting me on the court.

141
00:06:12,600 --> 00:06:13,960
Speaker 1: We went on to lose the game, and I had

142
00:06:13,960 --> 00:06:16,760
Speaker 1: mixed emotions. Our only defeat was costly, but I'd hit

143
00:06:16,760 --> 00:06:19,760
Speaker 1: the bigger shot of my life. Afterwards, our coach has

144
00:06:19,800 --> 00:06:22,359
Speaker 1: said how proud of us they were. Everyone was disappointed,

145
00:06:22,400 --> 00:06:24,080
Speaker 1: but we still had a great run. It was so

146
00:06:24,120 --> 00:06:25,640
Speaker 1: cool to be part of a team that even had

147
00:06:25,640 --> 00:06:27,880
Speaker 1: a shot. I came home and told mom and dad

148
00:06:27,880 --> 00:06:30,000
Speaker 1: what happened. Then I told them the second part of

149
00:06:30,000 --> 00:06:32,760
Speaker 1: the story. I could tell they understood, but that day

150
00:06:32,800 --> 00:06:34,960
Speaker 1: had a greater meaning to me that I wouldn't realize

151
00:06:35,040 --> 00:06:38,360
Speaker 1: until later, and it became my personal philosophy. When life

152
00:06:38,360 --> 00:06:40,359
Speaker 1: throws you a basketball, shoot it.

153
00:06:41,760 --> 00:06:44,599
Speaker 2: Hey, Charles Dickens, eat your fucking horde out.

154
00:06:46,080 --> 00:06:46,479
Speaker 5: Down.

155
00:06:46,800 --> 00:06:48,039
Speaker 3: Who didn't watch you on the team.

156
00:06:48,240 --> 00:06:51,000
Speaker 1: A couple of the teammates, I mean, I was there

157
00:06:51,000 --> 00:06:53,599
Speaker 1: were some good players on this team. We had one like, so, yeah,

158
00:06:53,600 --> 00:06:54,960
Speaker 1: you had a standout, Yeah.

159
00:06:54,720 --> 00:06:58,839
Speaker 2: One player, Michael Jordan. I'm just helping you edit here.

160
00:06:58,920 --> 00:06:59,400
Speaker 5: Let's throw that.

161
00:06:59,360 --> 00:07:02,160
Speaker 3: Out yea yeah yeah, twelve year old rivals.

162
00:07:02,600 --> 00:07:04,800
Speaker 1: Yeah, Well, I just I mean there were, you know,

163
00:07:04,839 --> 00:07:07,080
Speaker 1: I was like tenth or eleventh on the roster, and

164
00:07:07,360 --> 00:07:09,359
Speaker 1: there was just no minutes for me. Like you know,

165
00:07:09,520 --> 00:07:12,640
Speaker 1: at that age, you have three or four good players

166
00:07:12,640 --> 00:07:15,040
Speaker 1: and then you know some guys on the bench, and

167
00:07:15,080 --> 00:07:18,120
Speaker 1: I was a guy on the bench. And I remember

168
00:07:18,160 --> 00:07:20,520
Speaker 1: one of them, one of my teammates, his mum, who

169
00:07:20,600 --> 00:07:22,760
Speaker 1: came along. She drove, like some of the guys down there.

170
00:07:22,800 --> 00:07:25,600
Speaker 1: She was like, what's he even doing here on the team? Wow? Yeah.

171
00:07:26,320 --> 00:07:28,640
Speaker 1: I didn't realize until a year or so later when

172
00:07:28,640 --> 00:07:32,120
Speaker 1: it became a bit of a joke. But you know, yeah,

173
00:07:32,200 --> 00:07:32,480
Speaker 1: you just.

174
00:07:32,520 --> 00:07:33,480
Speaker 2: Keep driving the van.

175
00:07:35,600 --> 00:07:37,840
Speaker 4: Was this your first three point attempt?

176
00:07:38,040 --> 00:07:40,480
Speaker 1: Yes? Yes, wow, because this.

177
00:07:40,480 --> 00:07:42,200
Speaker 4: Is honestly more formative than the eighty seven.

178
00:07:43,120 --> 00:07:43,320
Speaker 6: Yeah.

179
00:07:43,760 --> 00:07:45,960
Speaker 2: Hey, that was really well written too. We give it

180
00:07:45,960 --> 00:07:48,080
Speaker 2: off to you. I was a little shocked by how

181
00:07:48,120 --> 00:07:48,680
Speaker 2: great that was.

182
00:07:49,000 --> 00:07:53,040
Speaker 1: I'm interested take my twenty dollars the three pointer like

183
00:07:53,080 --> 00:07:56,200
Speaker 1: they didn't count for us at under twelve, oh because

184
00:07:56,200 --> 00:07:58,400
Speaker 1: they didn't want kid shooting them. Yeah, so I just

185
00:07:58,440 --> 00:08:01,600
Speaker 1: never did before that, and so ah, go, yeah, go yeah,

186
00:08:01,600 --> 00:08:03,560
Speaker 1: but yeah I got one, and I was like, all right,

187
00:08:03,600 --> 00:08:09,240
Speaker 1: well why not, Yeah, let it fly, let it fly.

188
00:08:09,960 --> 00:08:13,040
Speaker 2: So what other chapters do you have in mind here?

189
00:08:13,200 --> 00:08:16,040
Speaker 1: Okay, Well, so then I'm trying to I'm going from

190
00:08:16,040 --> 00:08:18,560
Speaker 1: there to the eighty seven All Star Game and how

191
00:08:19,240 --> 00:08:23,760
Speaker 1: impactful that was on my life, and then how after that?

192
00:08:24,040 --> 00:08:27,080
Speaker 1: Then the NBA came to Australian TVP and then I

193
00:08:27,120 --> 00:08:30,840
Speaker 1: started writing to teams and uh, you know the Lakers were.

194
00:08:30,920 --> 00:08:33,920
Speaker 2: You're going to talk about the whole newspaper things, through

195
00:08:34,000 --> 00:08:36,920
Speaker 2: the whole your your dad's I guess what was it friend?

196
00:08:37,000 --> 00:08:39,840
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, yeah, bringing to the papers and stuff. Yeah. Yeah,

197
00:08:39,880 --> 00:08:42,480
Speaker 1: So it sort of goes through that and then and

198
00:08:42,520 --> 00:08:45,679
Speaker 1: then like from the sort of early nineties, its sort

199
00:08:45,679 --> 00:08:47,160
Speaker 1: of there's a bit of a lull because I don't

200
00:08:47,200 --> 00:08:50,040
Speaker 1: really have basketball stories. You know, you sort of grow

201
00:08:50,120 --> 00:08:51,560
Speaker 1: up and I still followed the lead, but I didn't

202
00:08:51,559 --> 00:08:52,880
Speaker 1: have that. So then it sort of comes more to

203
00:08:53,000 --> 00:08:55,319
Speaker 1: like when I left home and started traveling and gown

204
00:08:55,360 --> 00:08:58,400
Speaker 1: to the garden and getting ejected from oh yeah yeah sure,

205
00:08:58,520 --> 00:09:01,080
Speaker 1: going to my very first NBA game and seeing Vince

206
00:09:01,120 --> 00:09:04,000
Speaker 1: Card hit a game winner, and I was like, I'm back, baby,

207
00:09:04,040 --> 00:09:04,480
Speaker 1: I'm back.

208
00:09:05,760 --> 00:09:07,760
Speaker 4: Because when I left, facts to yourself.

209
00:09:07,440 --> 00:09:09,760
Speaker 1: Well, when I left, I became a soccer fan and

210
00:09:09,760 --> 00:09:12,720
Speaker 1: I sort of left basketball, and then I heard all

211
00:09:12,760 --> 00:09:14,680
Speaker 1: about Vince and I was like, Okay, let's see what

212
00:09:14,679 --> 00:09:17,079
Speaker 1: this guy's all about. First game, game winner. Oh my god,

213
00:09:17,160 --> 00:09:17,760
Speaker 1: I like this game.

214
00:09:17,960 --> 00:09:18,120
Speaker 3: Yeah.

215
00:09:18,920 --> 00:09:20,920
Speaker 1: And then uh, and then just the journey from there

216
00:09:20,960 --> 00:09:24,199
Speaker 1: of you know, like going back to Toronto of course,

217
00:09:24,559 --> 00:09:29,760
Speaker 1: meeting Rock Sanna and that changed everything. And then sort

218
00:09:29,760 --> 00:09:32,080
Speaker 1: of you know, from there, obviously NBA TV the starters.

219
00:09:32,400 --> 00:09:34,600
Speaker 1: You know, there's a few stories mixed in from there.

220
00:09:34,679 --> 00:09:36,960
Speaker 1: So I'm not sure how long it's going to be.

221
00:09:36,960 --> 00:09:40,160
Speaker 1: I'm not sure it's how many chapters, but you know,

222
00:09:40,960 --> 00:09:41,840
Speaker 1: we'll see what we can do.

223
00:09:41,960 --> 00:09:44,720
Speaker 4: On this our youth team here are were any of

224
00:09:44,760 --> 00:09:47,320
Speaker 4: your friends that we know about on this youth team?

225
00:09:47,920 --> 00:09:49,839
Speaker 5: Was man?

226
00:09:50,000 --> 00:09:52,360
Speaker 1: No, he was two years younger than us. He wasn't.

227
00:09:52,800 --> 00:09:58,040
Speaker 1: I mean, you've heard of Tomo. Tomo was on that team.

228
00:09:58,160 --> 00:10:00,080
Speaker 1: I don't think so, I don't. I don't think as

229
00:10:00,120 --> 00:10:00,600
Speaker 1: anyone else.

230
00:10:00,679 --> 00:10:03,800
Speaker 2: I mean, here's a question. Yeah, if we could get

231
00:10:03,840 --> 00:10:05,520
Speaker 2: all those guys that were on that team when you

232
00:10:05,520 --> 00:10:07,840
Speaker 2: were twelve years old or whatever, do you think he'd

233
00:10:07,880 --> 00:10:09,119
Speaker 2: be the best basketball player.

234
00:10:08,920 --> 00:10:13,120
Speaker 1: Now apart from the star Apart from that one star guy,

235
00:10:13,280 --> 00:10:15,360
Speaker 1: he probably got it. Yeah, well, he played like in

236
00:10:15,400 --> 00:10:18,320
Speaker 1: the Australian League and I think he was even captain

237
00:10:18,360 --> 00:10:21,280
Speaker 1: of the under twenty three Australian team. Yeah, he was.

238
00:10:21,320 --> 00:10:25,160
Speaker 1: He was an incredible shooting. He played against in nineteen

239
00:10:25,240 --> 00:10:28,760
Speaker 1: ninety five there was like a like a World Basketball tournament,

240
00:10:28,880 --> 00:10:32,160
Speaker 1: like the Rockets were there and Real Madrid or someone

241
00:10:32,240 --> 00:10:34,320
Speaker 1: and the Australian champions who he was on at the time,

242
00:10:34,360 --> 00:10:37,080
Speaker 1: played and he went against those guys. Yeah, he was

243
00:10:37,120 --> 00:10:39,360
Speaker 1: just an incredible shooter. And he was like at twelve

244
00:10:39,440 --> 00:10:41,200
Speaker 1: years old. He was like six foot three or something

245
00:10:41,240 --> 00:10:43,400
Speaker 1: as well. So our offense was just like throw the

246
00:10:43,400 --> 00:10:45,920
Speaker 1: ball to him and he was just shooting score and yeah,

247
00:10:46,080 --> 00:10:52,680
Speaker 1: I mean he probably averaged thirty five a game, So.

248
00:10:51,320 --> 00:10:53,920
Speaker 2: So you'd be the second best probably.

249
00:10:53,960 --> 00:11:00,000
Speaker 1: Yeah, i'd killed Tom. These days, Tom Dover hasn't played

250
00:11:00,120 --> 00:11:01,280
Speaker 1: probably for twenty years.

251
00:11:01,679 --> 00:11:02,120
Speaker 2: Have washed.

252
00:11:02,679 --> 00:11:03,280
Speaker 1: He's washed.

253
00:11:04,840 --> 00:11:06,720
Speaker 3: Maybe maybe he can get a quote. Maybe you get

254
00:11:06,760 --> 00:11:09,800
Speaker 3: a quote from the Star, the Star or the mom.

255
00:11:10,800 --> 00:11:16,960
Speaker 1: Well it was Toma's mom actually, and how's this It

256
00:11:17,040 --> 00:11:19,240
Speaker 1: was Thomas dad who used to get the newspapers the US.

257
00:11:21,280 --> 00:11:23,719
Speaker 1: I think we might get Tomo one for a podcast.

258
00:11:23,600 --> 00:11:29,120
Speaker 2: Tuesdays at Tomo. I love it well, honestly, great start.

259
00:11:29,440 --> 00:11:32,840
Speaker 2: I'm impressed. Thanks and thank you for sharing. That's not

260
00:11:32,880 --> 00:11:33,360
Speaker 2: easy to do.

261
00:11:33,480 --> 00:11:34,920
Speaker 1: No, it's not, it's not at all.

262
00:11:35,040 --> 00:11:36,800
Speaker 2: How long did that take you? I guess it is

263
00:11:36,840 --> 00:11:40,360
Speaker 2: another question? Did you edit that a lot? Are you? Honestly?

264
00:11:40,400 --> 00:11:42,160
Speaker 2: Are you one of these writers that can because I'm

265
00:11:42,160 --> 00:11:44,760
Speaker 2: not like this, like I have to like basically edit

266
00:11:44,880 --> 00:11:47,000
Speaker 2: every sentence as I go along, which you should never

267
00:11:47,040 --> 00:11:49,120
Speaker 2: really do. You should just like bang it all out

268
00:11:49,120 --> 00:11:51,120
Speaker 2: and then go back. So do you like just let

269
00:11:51,120 --> 00:11:53,880
Speaker 2: it flow when you're at the your computer, the or

270
00:11:53,920 --> 00:11:55,560
Speaker 2: I like to imagine you more on a typewriter.

271
00:11:56,880 --> 00:11:58,800
Speaker 1: The funny thing is, I'm fine. Once you get going,

272
00:11:58,840 --> 00:12:01,480
Speaker 1: it's hard to stop. Like like a couple of nights

273
00:12:01,480 --> 00:12:04,400
Speaker 1: I've been going into like after midnight because there's no distraction,

274
00:12:04,480 --> 00:12:06,800
Speaker 1: the kids are in bed, just fling it does. It

275
00:12:06,840 --> 00:12:08,839
Speaker 1: just comes down and I just let it all fly.

276
00:12:08,960 --> 00:12:10,600
Speaker 1: And then the next day or so then I go

277
00:12:10,679 --> 00:12:12,840
Speaker 1: back and I go, okay, then I start editing and change.

278
00:12:12,920 --> 00:12:13,959
Speaker 2: Okay, good, Yeah, that's it.

279
00:12:14,040 --> 00:12:15,560
Speaker 1: I just want to get it all down. Do it.

280
00:12:15,559 --> 00:12:18,120
Speaker 4: When life gives you an idea, rate it exactly.

281
00:12:18,200 --> 00:12:18,880
Speaker 1: That is true?

282
00:12:19,160 --> 00:12:21,400
Speaker 2: All right, we are after a great start here in

283
00:12:21,440 --> 00:12:26,400
Speaker 2: the ask anything next one from at Hall. Joshua wants

284
00:12:26,440 --> 00:12:30,560
Speaker 2: to know what's Lee's favorite Australian musician or band that

285
00:12:30,720 --> 00:12:33,040
Speaker 2: never really caught on in the US.

286
00:12:33,320 --> 00:12:35,640
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's a good one. I think this is a

287
00:12:35,640 --> 00:12:38,320
Speaker 1: powder Finger. I don't know if okay, yeah, you guys,

288
00:12:38,600 --> 00:12:40,880
Speaker 1: Manada probably heard about it. I don't know if Trey

289
00:12:40,880 --> 00:12:41,960
Speaker 1: would have heard about I don't think.

290
00:12:41,840 --> 00:12:43,200
Speaker 4: They may remember of this band.

291
00:12:43,360 --> 00:12:45,600
Speaker 1: Yeah. Well, so they were like an indie band in

292
00:12:45,600 --> 00:12:48,400
Speaker 1: the nineties and they were quite big in certainly in

293
00:12:48,440 --> 00:12:52,320
Speaker 1: Melbourne and in Australia. But their album in two thousand

294
00:12:52,320 --> 00:12:54,880
Speaker 1: and one, obously number five was the one that really

295
00:12:55,080 --> 00:12:57,240
Speaker 1: it was like the inexcess Kick album, like it was

296
00:12:57,280 --> 00:13:00,280
Speaker 1: their huge one. This was there. This was their the

297
00:13:00,280 --> 00:13:17,760
Speaker 1: biggest song from that album. Yeah, so you know that song? Yeah?

298
00:13:17,800 --> 00:13:19,400
Speaker 2: And when did you say they blew up in Australia

299
00:13:19,400 --> 00:13:20,920
Speaker 2: because I was there around two thousand.

300
00:13:21,000 --> 00:13:23,040
Speaker 1: Well so, yeah, their album I think came out in

301
00:13:23,040 --> 00:13:25,560
Speaker 1: two thousand and one. Obviously then fied this album, but

302
00:13:25,600 --> 00:13:27,800
Speaker 1: prior to that they'd had a couple like Double Allergic

303
00:13:27,840 --> 00:13:29,400
Speaker 1: in ninety six was the sort of a big one,

304
00:13:29,440 --> 00:13:31,520
Speaker 1: but I don't think that made it outside of Australia,

305
00:13:31,679 --> 00:13:33,880
Speaker 1: and I'm pretty sure they were big in Europe and

306
00:13:33,920 --> 00:13:36,160
Speaker 1: Britain as well, because I've seen them. I saw them

307
00:13:36,160 --> 00:13:39,600
Speaker 1: in Madrid and London, but I saw them in Toronto

308
00:13:39,679 --> 00:13:42,120
Speaker 1: at the Phoenix and it was just an all uzzy crowd,

309
00:13:43,480 --> 00:13:45,560
Speaker 1: but it was great. But then I saw the lead singer,

310
00:13:45,600 --> 00:13:48,720
Speaker 1: Bernard Fanning. He came back and played in Toronto at

311
00:13:48,720 --> 00:13:50,640
Speaker 1: the River Lely and I went and saw him there too.

312
00:13:50,720 --> 00:13:52,840
Speaker 1: He was great. But I thought they were a really

313
00:13:52,880 --> 00:13:57,920
Speaker 1: good band, and they're pretty much separated now. I mean, yeah,

314
00:13:58,000 --> 00:14:02,160
Speaker 1: I think they occasionally get back together. But yeah, yeah, I.

315
00:14:02,640 --> 00:14:05,120
Speaker 2: Guess they maybe weren't that big here in the States.

316
00:14:05,520 --> 00:14:08,480
Speaker 4: Yeah, I feel like I have heard of this band,

317
00:14:08,520 --> 00:14:10,680
Speaker 4: and like looking through the Wikipedia right now, it seems

318
00:14:10,720 --> 00:14:15,280
Speaker 4: that they were closely associated with Silverchair. Yeah, and Silverchair

319
00:14:15,400 --> 00:14:18,560
Speaker 4: was massive like sixth and seventh grade for me, so

320
00:14:18,600 --> 00:14:21,120
Speaker 4: maybe they were just sort of around. But I've never

321
00:14:21,160 --> 00:14:22,920
Speaker 4: heard that song we've just heard. I don't remember that

322
00:14:22,960 --> 00:14:23,280
Speaker 4: at all.

323
00:14:23,400 --> 00:14:24,640
Speaker 2: JD. Powder Finger fan.

324
00:14:25,000 --> 00:14:28,720
Speaker 6: Yeah, not a fan, but only because I you know,

325
00:14:28,840 --> 00:14:31,640
Speaker 6: it wasn't I kind of washed over me.

326
00:14:31,680 --> 00:14:34,040
Speaker 5: But I've definitely heard of that song. Yeah, I've heard

327
00:14:34,080 --> 00:14:34,400
Speaker 5: of them.

328
00:14:35,040 --> 00:14:36,520
Speaker 1: Yeah, they had a couple of the good songs off

329
00:14:36,560 --> 00:14:38,320
Speaker 1: that album, but that was definitely the biggest one that

330
00:14:38,360 --> 00:14:41,360
Speaker 1: I think, you know, put them on the map somewhat

331
00:14:41,400 --> 00:14:44,800
Speaker 1: overseas good live show, really good live show. Yeah, both

332
00:14:44,880 --> 00:14:47,480
Speaker 1: both with the band and Bernard Fanning live by himself.

333
00:14:47,480 --> 00:14:57,600
Speaker 1: He was incredible, incredible. What's his name? Bernard? Bernard Bernard right, Yeah, it.

334
00:14:57,640 --> 00:14:59,200
Speaker 2: Must be weird watching West he was on.

335
00:14:59,440 --> 00:15:01,520
Speaker 1: I saw him on Much Music one day, interviewed with

336
00:15:01,760 --> 00:15:06,760
Speaker 1: what's that guy? Yeah? That was great, it was awesome.

337
00:15:07,040 --> 00:15:07,760
Speaker 3: George was great.

338
00:15:09,240 --> 00:15:13,720
Speaker 1: What does George do these days? Because he was on hockey.

339
00:15:12,520 --> 00:15:14,040
Speaker 5: Did a lot of podcast, doesn't he?

340
00:15:14,120 --> 00:15:14,280
Speaker 1: Yeah?

341
00:15:14,320 --> 00:15:16,400
Speaker 3: I think so? Yeah, I mean he hosted a show

342
00:15:16,480 --> 00:15:17,720
Speaker 3: for a long time on CBC.

343
00:15:18,160 --> 00:15:19,480
Speaker 5: Does he still work for the CVC?

344
00:15:23,360 --> 00:15:25,480
Speaker 2: Who cares for a lot of listeners right now? Yeah?

345
00:15:25,480 --> 00:15:26,920
Speaker 2: But he was you're right, he was on Hockey Night

346
00:15:26,920 --> 00:15:28,480
Speaker 2: in Canada, Ye, for for a couple of years.

347
00:15:29,160 --> 00:15:33,560
Speaker 3: Our listeners. Do more people know George Travlopolis or Bernard fans?

348
00:15:36,000 --> 00:15:39,120
Speaker 2: We have a lot of us A listeners, We do

349
00:15:39,240 --> 00:15:40,440
Speaker 2: have a lot of Canadian listeners.

350
00:15:40,440 --> 00:15:40,800
Speaker 5: I don't know.

351
00:15:40,880 --> 00:15:46,200
Speaker 2: That's a awesome. We need a Thenard, do we have

352
00:15:46,240 --> 00:15:48,200
Speaker 2: more Australian fans or Canadian fans.

353
00:15:48,240 --> 00:15:49,920
Speaker 4: That's the question basically.

354
00:15:50,280 --> 00:15:53,600
Speaker 3: Yes, yeah, all right, next question here, Lee, if you

355
00:15:53,600 --> 00:15:56,560
Speaker 3: could build your dream concert as if you would attend

356
00:15:56,600 --> 00:16:01,080
Speaker 3: it tomorrow. Example, the Rolling Stones are old in this hypothetically. Wow,

357
00:16:02,120 --> 00:16:04,600
Speaker 3: the raider here setting his own parameters. Let's see if

358
00:16:04,680 --> 00:16:09,040
Speaker 3: le sticks, who would be your opener, supporting act and headliner.

359
00:16:09,120 --> 00:16:12,840
Speaker 3: That's from Jamal Winsley. So opener, supporting act and headliner

360
00:16:13,320 --> 00:16:14,680
Speaker 3: tomorrow tomorrow.

361
00:16:14,800 --> 00:16:19,160
Speaker 1: Yeah. Yeah, this was a tough question because I really

362
00:16:19,200 --> 00:16:22,840
Speaker 1: wanted to you know, I had to think deep about

363
00:16:22,840 --> 00:16:24,800
Speaker 1: all the all the gigs I've seen and who I

364
00:16:24,840 --> 00:16:26,760
Speaker 1: want to see if I only had sort of one

365
00:16:26,840 --> 00:16:29,080
Speaker 1: chance to do it, so let's.

366
00:16:28,880 --> 00:16:29,440
Speaker 2: Do it in order.

367
00:16:29,920 --> 00:16:32,000
Speaker 1: Okay, well, well, so I am going to bend the

368
00:16:32,080 --> 00:16:35,880
Speaker 1: rules a little, but not really, not really because I

369
00:16:35,920 --> 00:16:38,880
Speaker 1: saw Billy, Joel and Elton perform together, so they're going

370
00:16:38,960 --> 00:16:42,000
Speaker 1: to open together as the as the opener.

371
00:16:42,120 --> 00:16:45,640
Speaker 2: But yeah, in current state, current forum of.

372
00:16:45,640 --> 00:16:47,920
Speaker 1: Perfect perfect, they're great. I've seen them both in the

373
00:16:47,960 --> 00:16:50,240
Speaker 1: last twelve months, so you know they're still great, still

374
00:16:50,320 --> 00:16:50,880
Speaker 1: rocking away.

375
00:16:51,640 --> 00:16:53,200

Speaker 2: Elton support.

00:17:00,160 --> 00:17:02,840
Speaker 5: Never, you would never.

Speaker 1: the end of the year. This this retirement too, has

385
00:17:18,520 --> 00:17:19,840
Speaker 1: been gone for five years straight.

386

388
00:17:26,680 --> 00:17:29,520
Speaker 1: the supporting act. I've seen it. I've only seen her twice,

389
00:17:29,520 --> 00:17:31,600
Speaker 1: once in Toronto, once here in Atlanta, but both times

390
00:17:31,600 --> 00:17:33,920
Speaker 1: she puts on a banger of a show and she's

391
00:17:33,920 --> 00:17:36,639
Speaker 1: great and I love her, and you know, I just

392
00:17:36,640 --> 00:17:40,120
Speaker 1: would love to see her again. She she really puts

393
00:17:40,119 --> 00:17:42,760
Speaker 1: so much effort in to her to her shows, you know,

394
00:17:42,920 --> 00:17:47,960
Speaker 1: and respect I respect it. And the headliner, well, I'm

395
00:17:48,000 --> 00:17:51,439
Speaker 1: imagining this, you know, if I can imagining all the people,

396
00:17:52,520 --> 00:17:54,600
Speaker 1: if I could attend it tomorrow, then I've got to

397
00:17:54,640 --> 00:17:56,160
Speaker 1: go back to ned Worth and I've got to see

398
00:17:56,200 --> 00:17:58,960
Speaker 1: Robbie perform again in front of one hundred and twenty five.

399
00:17:59,680 --> 00:18:01,119
Speaker 1: I know, I know, I know, I know.

400
00:18:01,160 --> 00:18:03,320
Speaker 2: It's I almost think you should have flipped it. I

401
00:18:03,320 --> 00:18:05,000
Speaker 2: think Robbie should have been your opener.

402
00:18:05,080 --> 00:18:07,640
Speaker 1: But that was still the best gig I've ever seen. Yeah, yeah, yeah,

403
00:18:07,640 --> 00:18:09,320
Speaker 1: And so I had to sort of I have to say,

404
00:18:09,359 --> 00:18:11,960
Speaker 1: if I could watch that again, I would, because we

405
00:18:12,040 --> 00:18:13,639
Speaker 1: talked about in Vegas. He's going to be out there

406
00:18:13,680 --> 00:18:15,560
Speaker 1: in Vegas. Yeah, and I hope to take all of

407
00:18:15,600 --> 00:18:16,560
Speaker 1: us along there to see him.

408
00:18:16,600 --> 00:18:19,120
Speaker 2: But in some way do you mean when we're there maybe.

409
00:18:18,840 --> 00:18:21,320
Speaker 3: For some yeah yeah, if some three straight shows? Right,

410
00:18:21,560 --> 00:18:22,359
Speaker 3: three shows?

411
00:18:23,160 --> 00:18:24,280
Speaker 1: We're not going to be able to do a live

412
00:18:24,320 --> 00:18:27,000
Speaker 1: show in Vegas. Sorry, guys, we're going to see Robbie.

413
00:18:27,760 --> 00:18:28,960
Speaker 2: Maybe we can open for him.

414
00:18:29,720 --> 00:18:32,160
Speaker 4: Guy, he's got out in chance. Sorry, we are away

415
00:18:32,359 --> 00:18:35,560
Speaker 4: nonethelesson Yeah, I mean we'll, like twenty days earlier.

416
00:18:35,560 --> 00:18:37,639
Speaker 3: We'll have a crowd of smaller than twenty five people,

417
00:18:37,680 --> 00:18:38,560
Speaker 3: so we can have a show.

418
00:18:39,480 --> 00:18:41,199
Speaker 1: Yeah. So I just I just had to go with

419
00:18:41,240 --> 00:18:42,960
Speaker 1: that performance from Robbie. I mean it was just such

420
00:18:43,000 --> 00:18:46,359
Speaker 1: a perfect day, a perfect night, and his performance was perfect.

421
00:18:46,600 --> 00:18:49,240
Speaker 4: What's that performance like from rby Williams? As he playing

422
00:18:49,280 --> 00:18:51,600
Speaker 4: guitar at all? Is he playing piano at Allogy just singing?

423
00:18:51,640 --> 00:18:51,720
Speaker 2: No?

424
00:18:51,920 --> 00:18:54,159
Speaker 1: Not really, Yeah, he's just singing I don't think he

425
00:18:54,160 --> 00:18:57,600
Speaker 1: played the guitar at all. It was just like that

426
00:18:57,720 --> 00:18:59,800
Speaker 1: show that weekend he performed. It was just such a

427
00:18:59,800 --> 00:19:03,159
Speaker 1: common and it was like a nine hour show and

428
00:19:03,200 --> 00:19:04,719
Speaker 1: he had so many built up backs and then he

429
00:19:04,760 --> 00:19:08,119
Speaker 1: comes dangling down upside down onto the screen.

430
00:19:08,200 --> 00:19:09,840
Speaker 4: Yeah, the stage.

431
00:19:10,640 --> 00:19:13,760
Speaker 1: Yeah, it started at like it started at noon or

432
00:19:13,760 --> 00:19:16,760
Speaker 1: something with the darkness, and then Robbie didn't come on

433
00:19:16,880 --> 00:19:20,520
Speaker 1: until about nine o'clock or around that time. Anyway. It

434
00:19:20,640 --> 00:19:23,920
Speaker 1: was just just such as this is two thousand and three.

435
00:19:24,080 --> 00:19:27,080
Speaker 2: Yeah, so do you think, I mean, again with Jamal's question,

436
00:19:27,119 --> 00:19:28,760
Speaker 2: do you think Robbie still has it?

437
00:19:28,840 --> 00:19:31,320
Speaker 1: Man? To be honest, I mean I've never he hasn't

438
00:19:31,359 --> 00:19:34,000
Speaker 1: really been able to back that performance up anyway. Like

439
00:19:34,040 --> 00:19:36,480
Speaker 1: his music since then hasn't been great, I'll be honest.

440
00:19:37,119 --> 00:19:39,040
Speaker 3: But all that he came on at night, you didn't

441
00:19:39,040 --> 00:19:41,320
Speaker 3: see him for yeah, eight hours, No.

442
00:19:41,320 --> 00:19:44,080
Speaker 1: Because it was just it was Moby. There was Ash Festival,

443
00:19:44,200 --> 00:19:49,240
Speaker 1: Yeah there was, I mean how she made it you

444
00:19:49,280 --> 00:19:52,600
Speaker 1: know and who Yeah, the darkness I said them that

445
00:19:53,040 --> 00:19:55,800
Speaker 1: was huge for the darkness that blew them up because

446
00:19:56,320 --> 00:19:58,840
Speaker 1: they opened that day. People loved it.

447
00:19:58,920 --> 00:20:00,960
Speaker 4: Yeah, I saw a darker show that was awesome. Yeah,

448
00:20:00,960 --> 00:20:01,600
Speaker 4: they were so good.

449
00:20:01,680 --> 00:20:04,160
Speaker 1: Yeah, and they crashed and burned like a year later. Yeah,

450
00:20:04,320 --> 00:20:08,400
Speaker 1: they just couldn't handle it. But Robbie just came out

451
00:20:08,440 --> 00:20:12,719
Speaker 1: and I mean, just like like we talked about Freddie

452
00:20:12,720 --> 00:20:15,439
Speaker 1: Mercury's performance at Live Aid, how the crowd was just

453
00:20:15,480 --> 00:20:18,080
Speaker 1: into Robbie's was that was as close to a Freddie

454
00:20:18,119 --> 00:20:22,679
Speaker 1: performances he had that crowd each Yeah, and nobody left, nobody.

455
00:20:23,119 --> 00:20:26,280
Speaker 1: It took us hours to left leave that night. Everyone

456
00:20:26,359 --> 00:20:29,320
Speaker 1: had heat strokes, you know, nobody. Everyone had heat stroke.

457
00:20:29,359 --> 00:20:32,160
Speaker 1: Everyone was exhausted. But Robbie just re energized the crowd

458
00:20:32,200 --> 00:20:34,479
Speaker 1: and we all stuck it out. It was great, all right.

459
00:20:34,600 --> 00:20:37,040
Speaker 2: Yeah, Okay, hell of a hell of a Lee Ellis

460

Speaker 2: festival there Billy Joel with Elton John as the opener,

461
00:20:40,560 --> 00:20:44,840
Speaker 2: Lady Gaga supporting act, and then Robbie Williams as your Headliner's.

462
00:20:44,280 --> 00:20:46,120

00:21:04,080 --> 00:21:07,280
Speaker 2: studio is closed, I've been doing BAR three online workouts

470
00:21:07,280 --> 00:21:09,760
Speaker 2: at home. I've been trying to convince my husband to

471
00:21:09,880 --> 00:21:12,320
Speaker 2: join me, but he only said he would consider it

472
00:21:12,400 --> 00:21:15,960
Speaker 2: if Lee taught a BAR three class. So my question

473
00:21:16,080 --> 00:21:19,440
Speaker 2: is this, Lee, will you teach a class online? Thanks?

474
00:21:19,760 --> 00:21:22,280
Speaker 2: That is from Keatie. What do you think?

475
00:21:22,400 --> 00:21:26,439
Speaker 1: Well, Katie, I would absolutely do that if I felt

476
00:21:26,440 --> 00:21:28,600
Speaker 1: I was qualified to do it. And by that I

477
00:21:28,640 --> 00:21:31,720
Speaker 1: mean it's tough. It's tough. Those instructors go through a

478
00:21:31,720 --> 00:21:34,280
Speaker 1: pretty tough training and then they have to get certified

479
00:21:34,320 --> 00:21:36,600
Speaker 1: to be able to teach class, and I'm just nowhere

480
00:21:36,640 --> 00:21:39,600
Speaker 1: near at that level. Their class is you know, an

481
00:21:39,640 --> 00:21:41,680
Speaker 1: hour long, and they've got to keep on mixing up.

482
00:21:41,800 --> 00:21:44,000
Speaker 1: You know, you start off with a sort of intense

483
00:21:44,040 --> 00:21:45,760
Speaker 1: workout and then you have some cardio, then you do

484
00:21:45,840 --> 00:21:49,679
Speaker 1: some ad work or whatever, and they always, you know,

485
00:21:49,800 --> 00:21:51,600
Speaker 1: like it's a challenge for them to make sure that

486
00:21:51,640 --> 00:21:55,159
Speaker 1: they get every part of your body. Or depending on

487
00:21:55,200 --> 00:21:56,879
Speaker 1: what type of workout you want, if you want like

488
00:21:56,880 --> 00:21:59,160
Speaker 1: a high cardio one, if they do more of that, yeah,

489
00:21:59,280 --> 00:22:02,400
Speaker 1: or more way to more balancing or whatever. So if

490
00:22:02,440 --> 00:22:04,680
Speaker 1: I if I felt I could do it, I would,

491
00:22:04,720 --> 00:22:06,239
Speaker 1: But I just don't think I can yet. I mean

492
00:22:06,280 --> 00:22:09,000
Speaker 1: I have if I went through training maybe yeah, but

493
00:22:09,520 --> 00:22:11,480
Speaker 1: it's just it. And the other thing is.

494
00:22:12,080 --> 00:22:14,040
Speaker 2: It's a bit of a slap in the face to certify.

495
00:22:14,119 --> 00:22:18,480
Speaker 1: That's what I'm saying. Yeah. But also I find you

496
00:22:18,520 --> 00:22:20,639
Speaker 1: know and Ski maybe you do this. You run a

497
00:22:20,680 --> 00:22:22,280
Speaker 1: lot by yourself, but if you ever run with someone

498
00:22:22,320 --> 00:22:25,120
Speaker 1: and had a conversation like when you go running, yeah,

499
00:22:25,359 --> 00:22:27,760
Speaker 1: Like I find it so hard to actually talk during

500
00:22:27,800 --> 00:22:29,480
Speaker 1: a workout because I just don't have enough.

501
00:22:29,680 --> 00:22:33,600
Speaker 2: Well you're generally you're generally not working hard enough if

502
00:22:33,600 --> 00:22:35,920
Speaker 2: you're having a full blown conversation, especially when you're running.

503
00:22:35,920 --> 00:22:37,120
Speaker 2: But yeah, jogging, And.

504
00:22:37,040 --> 00:22:39,119
Speaker 1: So you guys remember when we did the class, like

505
00:22:39,119 --> 00:22:41,560
Speaker 1: like Eric is up there talking and encouraging us the

506
00:22:41,600 --> 00:22:42,920
Speaker 1: whole time, like it's tough.

507
00:22:43,000 --> 00:22:44,640
Speaker 2: Yeah, you've gotta be super fit.

508
00:22:44,760 --> 00:22:45,359
Speaker 5: Oh yeah.

509
00:22:45,480 --> 00:22:47,119
Speaker 2: So but I remember when we did the pick and

510
00:22:47,160 --> 00:22:49,040
Speaker 2: payoff on the Starter Show when I was running on

511
00:22:49,080 --> 00:22:50,880
Speaker 2: the treadmill and that's what we were doing the hour show.

512
00:22:51,400 --> 00:22:54,000
Speaker 2: I really hadn't thought about it in advance, Like, oh yeah,

513
00:22:54,000 --> 00:22:55,920
Speaker 2: I'm supposed to talk to you guys during the show,

514
00:22:55,960 --> 00:22:58,080
Speaker 2: but I am running on a treadmill. Had a decent

515
00:22:58,160 --> 00:23:00,840
Speaker 2: clip and I was like, you're right, it's like I

516
00:23:00,840 --> 00:23:01,760
Speaker 2: can barely talk.

517
00:23:02,440 --> 00:23:05,919
Speaker 1: So I'm glad to hear that Katie is doing some

518
00:23:05,960 --> 00:23:08,520
Speaker 1: bar three online classes and I think they're great. And

519
00:23:09,000 --> 00:23:10,800
Speaker 1: I've done a few couple of my favorite instructors. I'll

520
00:23:10,800 --> 00:23:13,440
Speaker 1: give a quick shout out Katie f Christa, Joy, Jordan

521
00:23:13,520 --> 00:23:15,479
Speaker 1: and Meredith. All of them are great, but those are

522
00:23:15,480 --> 00:23:17,119
Speaker 1: my four that I they're my go to.

523
00:23:17,359 --> 00:23:20,840
Speaker 2: It's a mount rushmore it is. That's really should be

524
00:23:20,840 --> 00:23:25,240
Speaker 2: three out there. I mean, really, let's be honest here,

525
00:23:25,320 --> 00:23:27,320
Speaker 2: Like I don't know her husband's name, but come on,

526
00:23:27,560 --> 00:23:29,720
Speaker 2: just do it. You don't need Lee Ellis to teach

527
00:23:29,720 --> 00:23:30,480
Speaker 2: her to do it.

528
00:23:32,480 --> 00:23:32,640
Speaker 5: Work.

529
00:23:32,840 --> 00:23:34,880
Speaker 2: You've talked about it for like three years running now,

530
00:23:35,000 --> 00:23:37,800
Speaker 2: like we've talked about we've done it. It's difficult, man,

531
00:23:37,880 --> 00:23:38,440
Speaker 2: give it a girl.

532
00:23:38,480 --> 00:23:40,480
Speaker 1: And the good thing about those online workouts is every

533
00:23:40,520 --> 00:23:43,240
Speaker 1: single one of them is different and it's fun, so

534
00:23:43,240 --> 00:23:44,959
Speaker 1: so keep doing it. It's a great workout. You can

535
00:23:45,000 --> 00:23:46,720
Speaker 1: do it inside, you can do it outside, do it

536
00:23:46,720 --> 00:23:50,000
Speaker 1: on the balcony, you can do it for you know, husbands, wives, kids,

537
00:23:50,000 --> 00:23:50,720
Speaker 1: everyone could do it.

538
00:23:50,880 --> 00:23:53,480
Speaker 4: You've been getting some workouts in on the balcony.

539
00:23:54,040 --> 00:23:57,800
Speaker 1: Not yet, No, you could in theory you could do it. Yeah,

540
00:23:57,800 --> 00:23:58,040
Speaker 1: of course.

541
00:23:58,119 --> 00:24:01,600
Speaker 3: Yeah, all right, next question here, how many countries have

542
00:24:01,680 --> 00:24:05,119
Speaker 3: you visited and what countries have you not yet visited

543
00:24:05,200 --> 00:24:09,200
Speaker 3: but would like to. That's from report count on Twitter.

544
00:24:09,440 --> 00:24:12,479
Speaker 1: Yeah. Well, Dave Christ and your buddy Chrish has visited more.

545
00:24:12,520 --> 00:24:13,639
Speaker 1: We had a bit of a talk at the All

546
00:24:13,680 --> 00:24:16,720
Speaker 1: Star weekend. I think he's up to sixty four. I

547
00:24:16,760 --> 00:24:17,960
Speaker 1: think he's thirty is I think he.

548
00:24:17,880 --> 00:24:19,399
Speaker 2: Said I bought him one of those maps. I think

549
00:24:19,440 --> 00:24:21,480
Speaker 2: I showed it, show that one of those scratch off

550
00:24:21,520 --> 00:24:24,080
Speaker 2: maps that you can if you've been to the country,

551
00:24:24,280 --> 00:24:25,480
Speaker 2: scratch it off. It's so cool.

552
00:24:25,600 --> 00:24:27,440
Speaker 1: At the time, I told him I've been to sixty five.

553
00:24:27,520 --> 00:24:28,240
Speaker 1: Just to set I get.

554
00:24:29,960 --> 00:24:30,400
Speaker 2: Forehead.

555
00:24:30,880 --> 00:24:33,159
Speaker 1: You're wrestling in a hotel room before the end of

556
00:24:33,200 --> 00:24:36,480
Speaker 1: the Yeah, I've been to twenty five to thirty around

557
00:24:36,480 --> 00:24:39,680
Speaker 1: that mark. Yeah. When I when I sort of think

558
00:24:39,720 --> 00:24:41,480
Speaker 1: about all the ones I've been to, like a place

559
00:24:41,560 --> 00:24:44,680
Speaker 1: like Barbados, the Bahama's been there. They count I suppose

560
00:24:44,680 --> 00:24:48,000
Speaker 1: as countries, you know, yep, yeah, not just.

561
00:24:47,960 --> 00:24:50,960
Speaker 3: The area yeah, so.

562
00:24:51,000 --> 00:24:54,359
Speaker 1: You think around the area twenty five thirty. Yeah, but yeah, the.

563
00:24:54,560 --> 00:24:56,440
Speaker 2: Second part of these questions are really interesting part.

564
00:24:56,680 --> 00:24:59,320
Speaker 1: I really haven't been much to Asia or Africa, and

565
00:24:59,359 --> 00:25:01,360
Speaker 1: I would love to. Probably, if I could choose, i'd

566
00:25:01,359 --> 00:25:05,240
Speaker 1: go to Africa first, you know, Kenya, Tanzania, Botswana, South Africa.

567
00:25:05,440 --> 00:25:06,840
Speaker 1: You know in Kenya, I think it is they have

568
00:25:06,920 --> 00:25:09,080
Speaker 1: that Giraffe hotel. I'm dying to go there.

569
00:25:09,280 --> 00:25:13,320
Speaker 2: Yeah, just like peering in through your Yeah, and what

570
00:25:13,480 --> 00:25:14,840
Speaker 2: did you do in both three class?

571
00:25:15,480 --> 00:25:17,399
Speaker 1: They really poked their necks in there while people are

572
00:25:17,400 --> 00:25:19,920
Speaker 1: having breakfast and that No, people are just sitting there like, oh, yeah,

573
00:25:19,920 --> 00:25:22,239
Speaker 1: it's fine. You know, I'm going to check it out.

574
00:25:22,280 --> 00:25:23,639
Speaker 4: Would you share a banana with the draft?

575
00:25:23,800 --> 00:25:25,560
Speaker 1: Yes, I would love to. I'd love to be just

576
00:25:25,600 --> 00:25:27,840
Speaker 1: stroking his forehead while he's chewing on a banana.

577
00:25:28,000 --> 00:25:29,639
Speaker 4: I'm about to go on forehead to forehead of the

578
00:25:29,680 --> 00:25:31,600
Speaker 4: giraffe at the hotel.

579
00:25:33,880 --> 00:25:35,600
Speaker 2: Okay, but where is that located again?

580
00:25:35,720 --> 00:25:37,440
Speaker 1: I think it's in an Aerobia. I think it's in Kenya,

581
00:25:37,480 --> 00:25:40,160
Speaker 1: I believe. Yeah, Ellen went there a couple of years ago.

582
00:25:40,200 --> 00:25:41,080
Speaker 1: She she beat me to it.

583
00:25:42,200 --> 00:25:45,919
Speaker 3: Is that as instructor? Oh, Allen but it's.

584
00:25:45,840 --> 00:25:47,959
Speaker 1: Legit, and you know, because a few people have sent

585
00:25:48,000 --> 00:25:50,159
Speaker 1: it to me and I thought it was probably not real.

586
00:25:50,040 --> 00:25:53,640
Speaker 2: But yeah, it almost looks for it. Yeah yeah, yeah yeah.

587
00:25:53,680 --> 00:25:56,240
Speaker 1: I mean, so they built that hotel and they're like,

588
00:25:56,320 --> 00:25:58,359
Speaker 1: let's make it so that the giraffes feel welcome.

589
00:25:58,760 --> 00:26:00,840
Speaker 2: Beautiful for me, beautiful stuff.

590
00:26:01,640 --> 00:26:04,720
Speaker 1: But there's no country, you know that I wouldn't go to.

591
00:26:04,760 --> 00:26:06,840
Speaker 1: I mean, I'm not dying to go to South North

592
00:26:06,880 --> 00:26:10,040
Speaker 1: Korea or Sierra Leone or anywhere like that, but but

593
00:26:10,760 --> 00:26:13,000
Speaker 1: I mean I would still would go there. They do

594
00:26:13,000 --> 00:26:15,399
Speaker 1: do tours these days in North Korea.

595
00:26:15,720 --> 00:26:18,200
Speaker 2: We're just happened to be in a car and we're

596
00:26:18,240 --> 00:26:22,920
Speaker 2: in North Korea. Like, I'm not gonna be upset, Okay,

597
00:26:22,920 --> 00:26:23,400
Speaker 2: We're here.

598
00:26:23,520 --> 00:26:25,840
Speaker 1: Like before I, before I ever really traveled, I was

599
00:26:25,880 --> 00:26:27,520
Speaker 1: scared to go to New York City. I was like

600
00:26:27,600 --> 00:26:29,120
Speaker 1: New York City, you know, because I used to watch

601
00:26:29,160 --> 00:26:34,520
Speaker 1: like NYPD Blue and stuff and I got to watch

602
00:26:34,520 --> 00:26:39,320
Speaker 1: out back running around there. But but once you once

603
00:26:39,359 --> 00:26:41,359
Speaker 1: you do your own research and you visit these countries,

604
00:26:41,400 --> 00:26:44,120
Speaker 1: you realize, you know, like like it's fine. I mean,

605
00:26:44,359 --> 00:26:47,600
Speaker 1: like the country that I went to that's probably has

606
00:26:47,600 --> 00:26:50,719
Speaker 1: the worst reputation with Syria. I went to Syria in

607
00:26:50,720 --> 00:26:53,560
Speaker 1: two thousand and five because I spoke to some people

608
00:26:53,560 --> 00:26:55,000
Speaker 1: who have been there, and you know, I went on

609
00:26:55,040 --> 00:26:56,400
Speaker 1: the old Lemon Tree. I don't know if you ever

610
00:26:56,400 --> 00:27:00,520
Speaker 1: went on that, the Lonely Planet like sort of chat room.

611
00:27:01,280 --> 00:27:03,919
Speaker 1: It wasn't a chat room sort of, but you know

612
00:27:03,920 --> 00:27:05,399
Speaker 1: where people it was like a blog or make some

613
00:27:05,520 --> 00:27:08,960
Speaker 1: people just updated and so many people said series great,

614
00:27:09,000 --> 00:27:10,919
Speaker 1: go there, and so I read and I did some

615
00:27:10,960 --> 00:27:13,240
Speaker 1: research and I went and it was incredible. It was

616
00:27:13,280 --> 00:27:16,040
Speaker 1: such a fun experience to go there. But I went

617
00:27:16,080 --> 00:27:18,040
Speaker 1: in August when it was stinking hot and was a

618
00:27:18,080 --> 00:27:20,000
Speaker 1: little a little tough to get a beer out there.

619
00:27:20,040 --> 00:27:25,240
Speaker 1: But that's my only criticism. But otherwise, friendly people and

620
00:27:25,280 --> 00:27:26,639
Speaker 1: people will come up to you and say like, what

621
00:27:26,920 --> 00:27:28,760
Speaker 1: are you doing here, you know, and I'm like, I'm

622
00:27:28,760 --> 00:27:34,560
Speaker 1: just here checking out because they don't know. But a

623
00:27:34,560 --> 00:27:36,320
Speaker 1: lot of the locals were like, you know, people just

624
00:27:36,359 --> 00:27:39,119
Speaker 1: think we're just like a country in turmoil, and you

625
00:27:39,160 --> 00:27:42,000
Speaker 1: know there's there's like gun toting militia man everywhere. Not

626
00:27:42,080 --> 00:27:43,320
Speaker 1: like that or very friendly place.

627
00:27:43,600 --> 00:27:45,919
Speaker 2: So well, let me ask you. Yeah, I mean, I

628
00:27:45,920 --> 00:27:47,960
Speaker 2: want to answer this because you're such a friendly nose guy.

629
00:27:48,040 --> 00:27:50,520
Speaker 2: But what's what's your least favorite country you've ever been to?

630
00:27:51,080 --> 00:27:54,040
Speaker 2: And maybe it's just because of one experience.

631
00:27:53,840 --> 00:27:56,680
Speaker 1: I'll say the country. This will get me trouble. Who

632
00:27:56,720 --> 00:28:00,560
Speaker 1: cares the city that they thought was overrated them? It

633
00:28:00,560 --> 00:28:03,680
Speaker 1: was Dublin, I'll say that. I'm sorry Irish people. Just

634
00:28:03,760 --> 00:28:06,240
Speaker 1: Dublin the self at city I just didn't think was

635
00:28:06,359 --> 00:28:07,040
Speaker 1: all that special.

636
00:28:07,119 --> 00:28:09,320
Speaker 2: Right, So you wouldn't have had a problem getting a

637
00:28:09,320 --> 00:28:09,679
Speaker 2: beer there?

638
00:28:09,920 --> 00:28:13,920
Speaker 1: No, certainly not. May trigger it aut there for a

639
00:28:13,960 --> 00:28:15,719
Speaker 1: few days. It was fine, it was fun. It was

640
00:28:15,760 --> 00:28:18,399
Speaker 1: just people were saying, Oh, Dublin's the greatest city in

641
00:28:18,400 --> 00:28:18,720
Speaker 1: the world.

642
00:28:19,600 --> 00:28:23,840
Speaker 2: It's fine. Yeah, you know, great people people, Yeah, for sure,

643
00:28:23,840 --> 00:28:24,320
Speaker 2: great people.

644
00:28:24,400 --> 00:28:26,919
Speaker 1: But but the city itself didn't, you know, nothing really

645
00:28:26,960 --> 00:28:29,400
Speaker 1: sort of grabbed me about it. But I would go back,

646
00:28:30,280 --> 00:28:32,200
Speaker 1: you would if somebody paid course.

647
00:28:35,080 --> 00:28:38,680
Speaker 2: All right, Next one here, uh, this one from at

648
00:28:38,720 --> 00:28:43,120
Speaker 2: Emmy Atinas through Twitter. If the coronavirus is about to end,

649
00:28:43,200 --> 00:28:46,720
Speaker 2: you end you in sort of quotations and you have

650
00:28:46,800 --> 00:28:50,680
Speaker 2: time only to catch one NBA game before passing. Which

651
00:28:50,720 --> 00:28:53,560
Speaker 2: one would you watch? And why is it the Confidence

652
00:28:53,600 --> 00:28:55,800
Speaker 2: Baby Confidence All Star Game? Or is there some other

653
00:28:55,960 --> 00:28:58,960
Speaker 2: historic game. Okay, you can only watch one more game

654
00:28:59,200 --> 00:29:00,960
Speaker 2: all the time, you got less, Tierra, what do you pick?

655
00:29:01,680 --> 00:29:03,600
Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean the eighty seven also that games obviously

656
00:29:03,680 --> 00:29:05,640
Speaker 1: one that I would love to have been at. But

657
00:29:05,800 --> 00:29:08,520
Speaker 1: I think I'd probably go to Jordan's last Bulls game

658
00:29:08,600 --> 00:29:12,160
Speaker 1: in Utah. I think, I mean, I think that just

659
00:29:12,240 --> 00:29:14,400
Speaker 1: the way that that game played out and how ended

660
00:29:14,400 --> 00:29:16,440
Speaker 1: his career on the shot they win the you know,

661
00:29:16,520 --> 00:29:19,200
Speaker 1: second three peat, it would have been incredible to be

662
00:29:19,240 --> 00:29:21,760
Speaker 1: in the arena for that that all the Cavs come back,

663
00:29:21,760 --> 00:29:25,640
Speaker 1: which Stray was at in Oakland. I mean, those two

664
00:29:25,680 --> 00:29:27,680
Speaker 1: I think if you had to pick outside of the

665
00:29:27,720 --> 00:29:30,080
Speaker 1: eighty seven All Star Game would have just been incredible.

666
00:29:29,680 --> 00:29:32,960
Speaker 2: Because those are to be in attendance. Yes, maybe more

667
00:29:33,000 --> 00:29:34,840
Speaker 2: than just watch on TV or something like that, but

668
00:29:34,840 --> 00:29:35,480
Speaker 2: that's fine.

669
00:29:35,280 --> 00:29:37,560
Speaker 1: Okay, Yeah, I mean that I sort of figured it that,

670
00:29:37,680 --> 00:29:40,800
Speaker 1: you know, it was like that's yeah, yeah, I mean

671
00:29:41,200 --> 00:29:42,840
Speaker 1: you know when you when you see Jordan like that

672
00:29:43,000 --> 00:29:44,880
Speaker 1: steal and then he goes down and hits the shot,

673
00:29:44,920 --> 00:29:48,400
Speaker 1: and then and then Stockton misses the next shot like that.

674
00:29:48,480 --> 00:29:52,400
Speaker 1: What an incredible moment that was in in the NBA history,

675
00:29:52,720 --> 00:29:55,600
Speaker 1: Like Jordan to finish with that shot. Wild.

676
00:29:55,760 --> 00:29:55,960
Speaker 5: Yeah.

677
00:29:56,000 --> 00:29:59,000
Speaker 4: Crazy. They never played another game after exactly. I've seen

678
00:29:59,000 --> 00:30:01,720
Speaker 4: you've been tweeting some cl have a lot of Mono genobi.

679
00:30:02,040 --> 00:30:03,760
Speaker 4: Have you been watching old games?

680
00:30:04,040 --> 00:30:06,560
Speaker 1: Uh no, I've been on YouTube a little bit though,

681
00:30:06,640 --> 00:30:08,760
Speaker 1: just that you know, some highlights and stuff. I mean, Mano,

682
00:30:08,760 --> 00:30:10,840
Speaker 1: there's a there's a lot of like Manu mixers out there.

683
00:30:12,160 --> 00:30:14,360
Speaker 1: I mean I loved him. I appreciate it when you play.

684
00:30:14,440 --> 00:30:16,120
Speaker 1: But now that he's just not here, you go back

685
00:30:16,160 --> 00:30:18,120
Speaker 1: and there's so many things we just missed about just

686
00:30:18,160 --> 00:30:22,440
Speaker 1: how clever he was. Yeah, he was. I love money.

687
00:30:25,600 --> 00:30:28,000
Speaker 3: All right. Next one here, it's in reference to something

688
00:30:28,200 --> 00:30:30,440
Speaker 3: we used to do not too long ago. How on

689
00:30:30,480 --> 00:30:32,600
Speaker 3: earth did you convince the others to let you do

690
00:30:32,720 --> 00:30:36,479
Speaker 3: tweet of the week's show outs on the draw? So

691
00:30:36,560 --> 00:30:39,400
Speaker 3: for those who don't know, we could have a tweet

692
00:30:39,440 --> 00:30:43,440
Speaker 3: of the week and everybody who sent in something would

693
00:30:43,440 --> 00:30:45,640
Speaker 3: get their handle shouted out by Lee Alis. Did you

694
00:30:45,680 --> 00:30:48,880
Speaker 3: do it purely to troll Mattio? As from Friendly Au

695
00:30:49,000 --> 00:30:51,120
Speaker 3: Mattio used to hate.

696
00:30:52,120 --> 00:30:53,960
Speaker 1: Yeah, he sort of did, but he didn't I think

697
00:30:54,160 --> 00:30:59,200
Speaker 1: I I think he liked the idea of it, because

698
00:30:59,560 --> 00:31:01,160
Speaker 1: you know, when tweeted the week started. I used to

699
00:31:01,200 --> 00:31:03,239
Speaker 1: try to find a tweet, and then I just got

700
00:31:03,240 --> 00:31:05,440
Speaker 1: a lot of suggestions from people, and so I wanted

701
00:31:05,480 --> 00:31:07,760
Speaker 1: to I wanted to acknowledge them and recognize them, because

702
00:31:07,800 --> 00:31:10,240
Speaker 1: this show is all about our listeners and that's all

703
00:31:10,240 --> 00:31:11,600
Speaker 1: it was. It was, and then it just grew, it

704
00:31:11,600 --> 00:31:13,280
Speaker 1: did get out of hand, no question, you know what

705
00:31:13,360 --> 00:31:14,000
Speaker 1: I mean.

706
00:31:13,720 --> 00:31:15,320
Speaker 3: I mean, so what happened to it this year?

707
00:31:16,000 --> 00:31:20,440
Speaker 1: Yeah, well it's different. We got to do yeah, and

708
00:31:20,440 --> 00:31:22,440
Speaker 1: we give them do we give any No one really

709
00:31:22,440 --> 00:31:26,760
Speaker 1: gets a shout at us. But it's it's one of

710
00:31:26,760 --> 00:31:29,400
Speaker 1: those things that, like, honestly, I feel it's about just

711
00:31:29,680 --> 00:31:33,040
Speaker 1: respecting our fants and our contributors because people, so many

712
00:31:33,040 --> 00:31:35,800
Speaker 1: people have a contribution to this show, like today's for example,

713
00:31:35,800 --> 00:31:39,480
Speaker 1: all these questions come from from listeners, real questions, no doubt.

714
00:31:39,480 --> 00:31:42,120
Speaker 1: And I wish we could answer more of the questions

715
00:31:42,120 --> 00:31:44,560
Speaker 1: were because we now get so many we do.

716
00:31:45,160 --> 00:31:47,560
Speaker 2: I mean, we could do like five chapters. I mean,

717
00:31:47,920 --> 00:31:52,120
Speaker 2: it'd be like your book anything. We got so many

718
00:31:52,240 --> 00:31:53,320
Speaker 2: questions for you.

719
00:31:53,760 --> 00:31:56,120
Speaker 1: Even when we do like a stepping on the beach

720
00:31:56,200 --> 00:31:58,400
Speaker 1: every week, I mean, you know, when we filter through them,

721
00:31:58,680 --> 00:32:02,160
Speaker 1: tasks usually has you know, twenty five to thirty. I

722
00:32:02,160 --> 00:32:03,680
Speaker 1: guess that we start off with.

723
00:32:03,800 --> 00:32:07,240
Speaker 2: And that's him already doing preliminary screening. Yeahh no, there's

724
00:32:07,280 --> 00:32:08,880
Speaker 2: lots and give I appreciate it.

725
00:32:08,920 --> 00:32:11,000
Speaker 1: For listeners, we do see them all, we read them all,

726
00:32:11,040 --> 00:32:12,360
Speaker 1: but we just can't get to them all. And I

727
00:32:12,440 --> 00:32:14,320
Speaker 1: wish we could, but we just can't.

728
00:32:14,480 --> 00:32:16,600
Speaker 2: The problem with you know, I was always getting angry

729
00:32:16,640 --> 00:32:18,320
Speaker 2: with tweeted the Week shutouts because I was starting to

730
00:32:18,360 --> 00:32:22,440
Speaker 2: get convinced that people were not really contributing a tweet

731
00:32:23,040 --> 00:32:24,720
Speaker 2: for you to maybe consider for tweeted the Week. They

732
00:32:24,720 --> 00:32:27,320
Speaker 2: were just coming up with a funny handle to have

733
00:32:27,400 --> 00:32:30,400
Speaker 2: you say that, which was also hilarious. Yeah, but it

734
00:32:30,440 --> 00:32:32,680
Speaker 2: was like you weren't even doing the tweet of the week, Army.

735
00:32:32,800 --> 00:32:36,120
Speaker 2: Let's let's remember that it was DJ pribble scribble, right,

736
00:32:36,400 --> 00:32:39,480
Speaker 2: I outsourced it. That's yeah, you outsourced it. I do

737
00:32:39,600 --> 00:32:43,280
Speaker 2: miss doing the old Captain wooblo balls. Yeah, you know,

738
00:32:43,400 --> 00:32:44,360
Speaker 2: chant together cheer.

739
00:32:44,320 --> 00:32:47,680
Speaker 1: It was great to meet him in Chicago, Yes, yeah, yeah,

740
00:32:47,680 --> 00:32:49,640
Speaker 1: it was. It was fun. But you know, it's one

741
00:32:49,680 --> 00:32:51,920
Speaker 1: of those things. It's sort of just it got a

742
00:32:51,960 --> 00:32:55,320
Speaker 1: little bit crazy there, but uh, you know, that's that's

743
00:32:55,320 --> 00:32:56,320
Speaker 1: the way it goes. Sometimes.

744
00:32:56,520 --> 00:32:59,040
Speaker 2: I bet it will make like at some point in

745
00:32:59,080 --> 00:33:02,000
Speaker 2: the future it'll make just this return, like a one

746
00:33:02,040 --> 00:33:03,000
Speaker 2: off special.

747
00:33:02,760 --> 00:33:07,239
Speaker 1: Or something, or just just the classics, you know, I

748
00:33:07,280 --> 00:33:10,000
Speaker 1: have ye yeah season.

749
00:33:10,240 --> 00:33:10,920
Speaker 2: I think Big.

750
00:33:10,840 --> 00:33:13,000
Speaker 1: Kruger was probably the one that everyone enjoyed the most.

751
00:33:14,200 --> 00:33:14,960
Speaker 2: It's fun to say.

752
00:33:15,280 --> 00:33:16,080
Speaker 1: There's some good names.

753
00:33:16,080 --> 00:33:17,960
Speaker 2: There's some great, great Twitter handles out there.

754
00:33:18,440 --> 00:33:20,040
Speaker 3: What was Big Krogodiga's real name?

755
00:33:20,440 --> 00:33:23,640
Speaker 1: Craig? I think Kyle and Nudi? I believe he.

756
00:33:25,360 --> 00:33:27,880

00:33:27,960 --> 00:33:28,160
Speaker 3: to me.

Speaker 1: Yeah. He uh, he had a he had a little

759
00:33:30,920 --> 00:33:31,680
Speaker 1: a little krougodog.

760
00:33:32,840 --> 00:33:37,800

762
00:33:41,000 --> 00:33:43,840
Speaker 2: fake business ideas. It sounds like sort of Shark tank

763
00:33:43,920 --> 00:33:46,960
Speaker 2: or something. We've been talking a lot about a restaurant

764
00:33:46,960 --> 00:33:49,720
Speaker 2: called the Final Lap. You would get to ride a

765
00:33:49,760 --> 00:33:52,000
Speaker 2: horse and then eat it afterwards.

766
00:33:52,960 --> 00:33:54,240
Speaker 1: A real question.

767
00:33:54,600 --> 00:33:58,200
Speaker 2: It's part of the stable to table restaurant group. Would

768
00:33:58,240 --> 00:34:00,400
Speaker 2: you ever eat out a place like this? Warmer regards,

769
00:34:00,480 --> 00:34:03,840
Speaker 2: that's from Cory war Regards. This is a legitimate.

770
00:34:05,560 --> 00:34:06,440
Speaker 3: Warm regards.

771
00:34:07,440 --> 00:34:09,719
Speaker 2: He should have saved this type of question for ask

772
00:34:09,800 --> 00:34:11,600
Speaker 2: he's anything. You know, I had a lot of opinions.

773
00:34:11,680 --> 00:34:13,719
Speaker 2: I'm eating horse, but what about you?

774
00:34:14,000 --> 00:34:15,400
Speaker 1: Yeah, would I eat a horse?

775
00:34:15,440 --> 00:34:17,279
Speaker 2: Well after you wrote it especially.

776
00:34:17,040 --> 00:34:20,560
Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean it's I've never eaten horse that I

777
00:34:20,680 --> 00:34:24,360
Speaker 1: know of before. It's possible that at some point, you

778
00:34:24,400 --> 00:34:26,000
Speaker 1: know something, you know, I think in England at one

779
00:34:26,040 --> 00:34:29,279
Speaker 1: point they had like a crisis where horse meat was

780
00:34:29,320 --> 00:34:33,160
Speaker 1: being used in McDonald's hamburgers and stuff like that. Yeah, like, yeah,

781
00:34:33,400 --> 00:34:37,080
Speaker 1: something like that. I remember, No, no, no, I mean

782
00:34:37,080 --> 00:34:39,400
Speaker 1: they just I don't know, they got it confused, I

783
00:34:39,400 --> 00:34:42,880
Speaker 1: guess with the cow and blended it all in. So

784
00:34:43,239 --> 00:34:45,799
Speaker 1: it's possible. It's possible that I haven't loss at some point.

785
00:34:46,239 --> 00:34:51,280
Speaker 1: I can't remember exactly, but it was like it's right, he's.

786
00:34:51,200 --> 00:34:54,560
Speaker 3: Right, yeah, wow, And you were serving.

787
00:34:54,280 --> 00:34:57,120
Speaker 1: Them at that point.

788
00:34:57,160 --> 00:34:58,160
Speaker 2: We were part of the problem.

789
00:34:58,760 --> 00:35:01,080
Speaker 1: But you know, there's no those restaurants where you see

790
00:35:01,080 --> 00:35:02,520
Speaker 1: the lobster and you say I want that one and

791
00:35:02,520 --> 00:35:03,719
Speaker 1: they cook it up for you on that But it's

792
00:35:03,719 --> 00:35:05,719
Speaker 1: a little different if you're like, you know, saddle up

793
00:35:05,760 --> 00:35:09,160
Speaker 1: and right around and it's all right, we're just going

794
00:35:09,239 --> 00:35:12,400
Speaker 1: to go and slaughter this horse. Here, because you know,

795
00:35:12,520 --> 00:35:15,160
Speaker 1: it's you need to have a big old table. I

796
00:35:15,160 --> 00:35:19,320
Speaker 1: guess when you're like a lot of people, you're.

797
00:35:19,160 --> 00:35:22,520
Speaker 4: Assuming this like a sucking pegs the whole thing out there.

798
00:35:22,600 --> 00:35:25,120
Speaker 1: Yeah, and then they're just like, yeah, you need a big.

799
00:35:26,680 --> 00:35:26,919
Speaker 2: Again.

800
00:35:26,960 --> 00:35:28,560
Speaker 1: I mean, what type of horse are we talking here?

801
00:35:28,600 --> 00:35:31,040
Speaker 1: Like a pony or a big like Clydesdale. I I

802
00:35:31,080 --> 00:35:33,120
Speaker 1: don't think that'd be too appetizing to see the big

803
00:35:33,160 --> 00:35:34,399
Speaker 1: hairy legs come out there.

804
00:35:34,440 --> 00:35:36,640
Speaker 2: You know, it sounds like you're not really into this.

805
00:35:36,880 --> 00:35:40,160
Speaker 1: Nah. No, I mean I appreciate the you know, the

806
00:35:40,239 --> 00:35:42,359
Speaker 1: idea there, Corey, but no, I don't. I don't think

807
00:35:42,400 --> 00:35:44,239
Speaker 1: I would be keen to try off.

808
00:35:44,320 --> 00:35:46,600
Speaker 2: So if this was shock tank, what would you say?

809
00:35:46,719 --> 00:35:49,000
Speaker 1: I would say, you're you're you're dead to me, get

810
00:35:49,000 --> 00:35:49,440
Speaker 1: out of here.

811
00:35:50,200 --> 00:35:50,480
Speaker 5: That's what.

812
00:35:50,600 --> 00:35:54,399
Speaker 1: That's what. That's what Kevin O'Leary says when he says

813
00:35:54,640 --> 00:35:57,640
Speaker 1: people sometimes so most of the time, he says that

814
00:35:57,680 --> 00:35:59,480
Speaker 1: when he makes him an offer and they turn him down,

815
00:35:59,719 --> 00:36:01,600
Speaker 1: and then he gets really piste off at them.

816
00:36:02,000 --> 00:36:06,359
Speaker 2: Yeah here as dead as the horse you're trying to

817
00:36:06,360 --> 00:36:08,280
Speaker 2: sell me. Get out of here.

818
00:36:09,320 --> 00:36:12,680
Speaker 1: I've eaten camel. I think that's that's the craziest thing.

819
00:36:12,840 --> 00:36:14,719
Speaker 7: Have you ever rode on a camel? Yes, yeah, yeah,

820
00:36:15,320 --> 00:36:19,480
Speaker 7: that's the one you rate. Yeah, yeah, no I don't.

821
00:36:20,040 --> 00:36:21,920
Speaker 7: I don't think I've ever ate anything else sort of

822
00:36:22,200 --> 00:36:23,040
Speaker 7: super weird.

823
00:36:23,480 --> 00:36:27,200
Speaker 2: What did you think of the camel riding experience? I

824
00:36:27,200 --> 00:36:29,800
Speaker 2: mean in a pretty artificial setting.

825
00:36:29,880 --> 00:36:33,319
Speaker 1: I did it actually in Jordan of all places. Yeah,

826
00:36:34,000 --> 00:36:36,640
Speaker 1: walked around in the desert on the back of a camel, right.

827
00:36:36,560 --> 00:36:38,560
Speaker 2: Yeah, like we're a part of a group or something.

828
00:36:38,640 --> 00:36:40,359
Speaker 1: Yeah, there was not many obvious, only a few of us.

829
00:36:40,360 --> 00:36:42,600
Speaker 2: Like you didn't rent it, like an e scooter or

830
00:36:42,600 --> 00:36:43,160
Speaker 2: something like that.

831
00:36:43,280 --> 00:36:45,560
Speaker 1: Nah, no, Actually I've done it in Australia to have

832
00:36:45,640 --> 00:36:48,160
Speaker 1: written a camel out there, Yeah, that's okay.

833
00:36:48,719 --> 00:36:50,879
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's it's quite fun to get on and off

834
00:36:50,880 --> 00:36:51,120
Speaker 2: of those.

835
00:36:51,360 --> 00:36:53,600
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's the funnest part. Yeah. Once you're actually on,

836
00:36:53,680 --> 00:36:56,239
Speaker 1: it's so I don't know, you think it's boring, Yeah,

837
00:36:56,360 --> 00:36:58,200
Speaker 1: you think. I thought it'd be something more than.

838
00:36:58,200 --> 00:37:00,719
Speaker 2: Yeah, you're high, you're up high, but it's boring.

839
00:37:00,640 --> 00:37:02,719
Speaker 1: Because their legs collapse right down. It's like, you know,

840
00:37:02,840 --> 00:37:04,960
Speaker 1: like when Shack pulled that backboard down and it just.

841
00:37:05,120 --> 00:37:08,280
Speaker 2: It's incredible and like the angle you are on getting

842
00:37:08,680 --> 00:37:11,000
Speaker 2: that's actually on and off the thing you really got

843
00:37:11,000 --> 00:37:11,480
Speaker 2: a hold on.

844
00:37:11,480 --> 00:37:13,400
Speaker 1: Yeah, because it doesn't go front legs up first and

845
00:37:13,440 --> 00:37:15,279
Speaker 1: then the back ones like that. I think that's how

846
00:37:15,280 --> 00:37:15,600
Speaker 1: it goes.

847
00:37:15,880 --> 00:37:16,440
Speaker 2: It's crazy.

848
00:37:16,560 --> 00:37:18,719
Speaker 1: Yeah, cool, great, all.

849
00:37:18,760 --> 00:37:21,480
Speaker 3: Right before we get it to some more. Lee responses

Speaker 3: All right, Hi guys, I hope you're all well and

935
00:41:14,480 --> 00:41:17,959
Speaker 3: staying safe. My question for Lee would you rather never

936
00:41:18,080 --> 00:41:21,319
Speaker 3: see another second of NBA basketball or never return to

937
00:41:21,400 --> 00:41:26,760
Speaker 3: Australia ever again? Love from England. That's Joe Carey.

938
00:41:27,160 --> 00:41:30,200
Speaker 1: Wow, what a what a final sort of question there,

939
00:41:30,320 --> 00:41:32,520
Speaker 1: like to be like, you know, one or the other

940
00:41:32,560 --> 00:41:33,600
Speaker 1: has to go and that's it.

941
00:41:33,719 --> 00:41:36,640
Speaker 3: That's hell. Yeah, never go never going back home or

942
00:41:36,680 --> 00:41:37,840
Speaker 3: never watching basketball.

943
00:41:38,040 --> 00:41:40,920
Speaker 1: That's gotta be tough. It's sort of is, but not really.

944
00:41:42,040 --> 00:41:43,480
Speaker 1: I would never want to not be able to go

945
00:41:43,480 --> 00:41:46,040
Speaker 1: back to Australia again. You know, well, lots of friends

946
00:41:46,040 --> 00:41:48,200
Speaker 1: and family. That's where I was born and raised. I mean,

947
00:41:48,200 --> 00:41:49,680
Speaker 1: I want to go back there. And when I think

948
00:41:49,680 --> 00:41:53,200
Speaker 1: about the NBA and the basketball world, I've seen some

949
00:41:53,320 --> 00:41:57,680
Speaker 1: incredible stuff. You know, YouTube is there forever, so uh

950
00:41:58,719 --> 00:41:59,720
Speaker 1: watch man Genobi.

951
00:42:00,280 --> 00:42:02,600
Speaker 4: Wait, but this says you never see another second of

952
00:42:02,680 --> 00:42:04,640
Speaker 4: NBA basket you're not able to turn on YouTube.

953
00:42:04,680 --> 00:42:09,280
Speaker 1: Oh okay, I thought it. Thought it was more like, yeah.

954
00:42:08,640 --> 00:42:11,200
Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm with Tray, never can see it again.

955
00:42:11,200 --> 00:42:13,400
Speaker 1: Wow. Well, I mean I guess I have to just

956
00:42:13,719 --> 00:42:15,880
Speaker 1: still you know, I want to go back to Australia

957
00:42:15,920 --> 00:42:16,640
Speaker 1: again at some point.

958
00:42:16,719 --> 00:42:18,799
Speaker 2: Okay. You know what had been really interesting if the

959
00:42:18,840 --> 00:42:22,120
Speaker 2: other option instead of watching basketball, you can never play

960
00:42:22,120 --> 00:42:25,320
Speaker 2: basketball shoot a basketball. Oh wow, that would be a

961
00:42:25,320 --> 00:42:29,200
Speaker 2: little more difficult. Yeah, I mean you're probably still going back.

962
00:42:29,040 --> 00:42:31,200
Speaker 1: Yeah, I think so. I wouldn't want to be I

963
00:42:31,239 --> 00:42:33,480
Speaker 1: just wouldn't want to be not be able to go

964
00:42:33,520 --> 00:42:36,719
Speaker 1: back to Australia again, you know. I mean it was

965
00:42:36,760 --> 00:42:39,239
Speaker 1: eight years in between the last two visits, but I

966
00:42:39,280 --> 00:42:41,000
Speaker 1: hope it's not that long before I go back again.

967
00:42:41,080 --> 00:42:43,680
Speaker 2: I mean it's you know, yeah, but your book would

968
00:42:43,680 --> 00:42:46,399
Speaker 2: then be controversial because you're you keep telling everyone you want,

969
00:42:46,480 --> 00:42:48,080
Speaker 2: you know, yeah, basketball in your hands, let it fly,

970
00:42:48,160 --> 00:42:50,879
Speaker 2: shoot it, but you actually couldn't do that.

971
00:42:50,960 --> 00:42:53,640
Speaker 4: Yeah, it could be a great final line, though you

972
00:42:53,719 --> 00:42:55,520
Speaker 4: write the whole book. The last chapter is about how

973
00:42:55,560 --> 00:42:58,520
Speaker 4: you can't ever watch basketball or play basketball again, and

974
00:42:58,640 --> 00:43:01,400
Speaker 4: the last line just says, but I do like cricket.

975
00:43:08,640 --> 00:43:11,319
Speaker 1: Okay, so you're picking I'm going to Australia again.

976
00:43:12,400 --> 00:43:15,319
Speaker 2: All right, a few more here, This one from at

977
00:43:15,440 --> 00:43:19,960
Speaker 2: Jamie McCallum one on Twitter. What's the highest number of

978
00:43:20,040 --> 00:43:22,960
Speaker 2: beers you've had in one night and can you describe

979
00:43:23,000 --> 00:43:23,359
Speaker 2: the night?

980
00:43:24,360 --> 00:43:27,440
Speaker 1: Well, it's hard to remember exactly how many beers you've

981
00:43:27,440 --> 00:43:29,279
Speaker 1: had on a super boozy night, So I'm going to

982
00:43:29,360 --> 00:43:31,200
Speaker 1: go with the booziest night I think I've ever had

983
00:43:31,239 --> 00:43:33,600
Speaker 1: based on the hangover the next day, and it was

984
00:43:33,640 --> 00:43:40,279
Speaker 1: actually two years ago, less than two years ago in Vegas, yeah, well,

985
00:43:40,320 --> 00:43:43,120
Speaker 1: because I think it was Skeets. Myself and Matt All

986
00:43:43,160 --> 00:43:46,239
Speaker 1: flew on the same flight out to Vegas, and then

987
00:43:46,280 --> 00:43:47,799
Speaker 1: we before we went to the hotel, we went to

988
00:43:47,800 --> 00:43:52,640
Speaker 1: Whole Foods to stock up, and I remember driving down

989
00:43:52,640 --> 00:43:55,600
Speaker 1: the strip in the car that was air conditioned, and

990
00:43:55,640 --> 00:43:58,160
Speaker 1: I was still feeling a little bit dehydrated just then

991
00:43:58,560 --> 00:44:01,279
Speaker 1: it was so hot and uh, and we came in

992
00:44:01,320 --> 00:44:04,160
Speaker 1: with you know, checking for the hotel, and basically whoever

993
00:44:04,200 --> 00:44:08,319
Speaker 1: else was there, Trey was already there or you were

994
00:44:08,360 --> 00:44:08,920
Speaker 1: coming after me.

995
00:44:09,200 --> 00:44:10,680
Speaker 4: I came pretty late, I think, so right on.

996
00:44:11,200 --> 00:44:13,560
Speaker 1: JD was already there, and Tats was was already there too.

997
00:44:13,600 --> 00:44:16,200
Speaker 3: I was already there. Yeah, I was already very dehydrated

998
00:44:16,200 --> 00:44:17,560
Speaker 3: because I was drinking already.

999
00:44:17,760 --> 00:44:20,200
Speaker 1: So yes, and we went out and we started drinking

1000
00:44:20,239 --> 00:44:22,040
Speaker 1: like beer, and then we went out for dinner and

1001
00:44:22,080 --> 00:44:22,560
Speaker 1: had wine.

1002
00:44:22,640 --> 00:44:24,400
Speaker 2: And then you were doing you were doing the thing

1003
00:44:24,440 --> 00:44:25,520
Speaker 2: where you drink whatever.

1004
00:44:25,360 --> 00:44:28,919
Speaker 1: Drinking exactly exactly. Yeah, well, especially when it comes to wine.

1005
00:44:28,960 --> 00:44:31,240
Speaker 1: I always liked to just let JD just pick a wine.

1006
00:44:31,520 --> 00:44:34,919
Speaker 2: Well, you guys were into the cocktails to yes, yeah, yeah, So.

1007

00:44:36,719 --> 00:44:37,120
Speaker 5: it happened.

1009
00:44:37,880 --> 00:44:41,200
Speaker 1: Well, then we went to then we had wine with dinner,

1010
00:44:41,480 --> 00:44:44,359
Speaker 1: and then maybe you left, because then myself and we

1011
00:44:44,400 --> 00:44:46,880
Speaker 1: went we went to the like sports bar area, and

1012
00:44:46,880 --> 00:44:50,040
Speaker 1: we're drinking beer and stuff there and yeah, I mean,

1013
00:44:50,120 --> 00:44:52,279
Speaker 1: I just remember feeling so dry. I think I think

1014
00:44:52,320 --> 00:44:54,560
Speaker 1: I was pitching and we should be referring games at

1015
00:44:54,560 --> 00:44:55,239
Speaker 1: the Summer League.

1016
00:44:58,760 --> 00:45:00,440
Speaker 2: Here we out here, we a I mean, the thing,

1017
00:45:00,560 --> 00:45:01,280
Speaker 2: just be the official.

1018
00:45:01,400 --> 00:45:03,640
Speaker 1: That first night in Vegas was always a doozy because

1019
00:45:03,640 --> 00:45:05,520
Speaker 1: we would often have a sort of dinner and I

1020
00:45:05,560 --> 00:45:07,200
Speaker 1: always found it hard to sleep because you're a bit

1021
00:45:07,280 --> 00:45:09,560
Speaker 1: jet lad, a big belly full of food at the

1022
00:45:09,600 --> 00:45:13,520
Speaker 1: wrong time, and to add to that dehydrated and just drinking,

1023
00:45:14,360 --> 00:45:17,040
Speaker 1: you know, just non stop. And we woke up myself

1024
00:45:17,040 --> 00:45:19,600
Speaker 1: trained skeets next morning and watched a World Cup game.

1025
00:45:19,920 --> 00:45:22,200
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, really, I think it was England Sweden. Maybe

1026
00:45:22,280 --> 00:45:22,440
Speaker 1: was it?

1027
00:45:22,360 --> 00:45:24,080
Speaker 4: It was because it was England, Yeah, it was.

1028
00:45:24,640 --> 00:45:26,360
Speaker 1: It was a big game. That was all right to

1029
00:45:26,360 --> 00:45:29,120
Speaker 1: get up and I remember feeling, oh, you're rough, Yeah,

1030
00:45:29,200 --> 00:45:31,920
Speaker 1: you were rough, and so I thought, that's all right,

1031
00:45:31,920 --> 00:45:33,520
Speaker 1: I'll shake it off, you know, drink some water and

1032
00:45:33,719 --> 00:45:35,680
Speaker 1: went back to sleep, went back to bed. After the

1033
00:45:35,719 --> 00:45:37,719
Speaker 1: game and slept, woke up and felt worse and I

1034
00:45:37,800 --> 00:45:40,920
Speaker 1: just couldn't you know. I had a cold shower, I

1035
00:45:40,960 --> 00:45:43,080
Speaker 1: was drinking more water, I was taking Thailand od, but

1036
00:45:43,120 --> 00:45:44,640
Speaker 1: I was just so sick.

1037
00:45:44,719 --> 00:45:46,440
Speaker 2: Tried all the tricks and.

1038
00:45:46,360 --> 00:45:48,440
Speaker 1: We had a like a three o'clock departure I think

1039
00:45:48,480 --> 00:45:52,640
Speaker 1: that day, and at around twelve thirty one o'clock, I

1040
00:45:52,680 --> 00:45:55,960
Speaker 1: was like, all right, this nothing's working. So I googled

1041
00:45:55,960 --> 00:46:00,359
Speaker 1: like a hydration portable hydration clinic and I said, how

1042
00:46:00,440 --> 00:46:02,960
Speaker 1: quickly can you get to the where are we staying

1043
00:46:03,000 --> 00:46:06,160
Speaker 1: at the Venetian Venia?

1044
00:46:06,280 --> 00:46:06,760
Speaker 2: Yeah?

1045
00:46:06,760 --> 00:46:08,400
Speaker 1: I said how quickly can you get to the Venetian?

1046
00:46:08,440 --> 00:46:09,960
Speaker 1: And they're like, ah, we can have someone there in

1047
00:46:10,000 --> 00:46:11,759
Speaker 1: half now. And I was like how much of They

1048
00:46:11,760 --> 00:46:14,280
Speaker 1: said one hundred and seventy five bucks. I'm like, yeah, fine,

1049
00:46:14,400 --> 00:46:17,440
Speaker 1: do it. Do it anyway. So this lady turns up

1050
00:46:17,480 --> 00:46:20,319
Speaker 1: and she hooks me up to the IV and I

1051
00:46:20,320 --> 00:46:22,440
Speaker 1: remember as she was like flicking it to get it started,

1052
00:46:22,560 --> 00:46:28,920
Speaker 1: she said she said, oh wow, you're really hydra And

1053
00:46:29,040 --> 00:46:30,840
Speaker 1: so it worked. It worked like a charm. Like the

1054
00:46:32,040 --> 00:46:34,680
Speaker 1: hydration is just incredible because it just it avoids your gut.

1055
00:46:34,680 --> 00:46:37,239
Speaker 1: It just goes straight into your bloodstream, so it fix

1056
00:46:37,360 --> 00:46:39,279
Speaker 1: you up. And then when I went to pay, it

1057
00:46:39,320 --> 00:46:42,280
Speaker 1: was one hundred and seventy five dollars, but they forgot

1058
00:46:42,320 --> 00:46:43,640
Speaker 1: to tell me or didn't tell me. It's also one

1059
00:46:43,680 --> 00:46:48,799
Speaker 1: hundred dollars to come to your hotel. And I gave

1060
00:46:48,840 --> 00:46:50,360
Speaker 1: her a twenty dollar tip on top of it. So

1061
00:46:50,360 --> 00:46:54,800
Speaker 1: it was basically a three hundred dollars hangover QE after

1062
00:46:54,840 --> 00:46:57,800
Speaker 1: spending you know vegas prices, you know, on alcohol the

1063
00:46:57,880 --> 00:47:01,080
Speaker 1: night before, Like I probably spent five hundred bucks I

1064
00:47:01,120 --> 00:47:06,080
Speaker 1: think in the first twelve twelve hours easily. But yeah,

1065
00:47:06,120 --> 00:47:07,440
Speaker 1: that was that was rough.

1066
00:47:07,600 --> 00:47:09,000
Speaker 2: I think that was your worst.

1067
00:47:09,280 --> 00:47:14,040
Speaker 1: That's certainly the worst you've probably had. You drank more, yes, probably,

1068
00:47:14,120 --> 00:47:16,279
Speaker 1: I mean, you know, but but it's when you mix

1069
00:47:16,320 --> 00:47:20,759
Speaker 1: those drinks, you know, in the heat, not sleeping, getting up,

1070
00:47:20,840 --> 00:47:23,560
Speaker 1: I mean, all those factors combined just me. I remember,

1071
00:47:23,640 --> 00:47:24,880
Speaker 1: like that was the first time I was thinking I

1072
00:47:24,920 --> 00:47:27,360
Speaker 1: was going to have to like slack everybody and say, guys,

1073
00:47:27,400 --> 00:47:29,880
Speaker 1: I can't I can't make it today. I'm just awful.

1074
00:47:30,160 --> 00:47:31,880
Speaker 1: But then I was like one more chance, and it

1075
00:47:31,880 --> 00:47:34,640
Speaker 1: was the hydration clinic, and three hundred bucks later, I

1076
00:47:34,680 --> 00:47:35,360
Speaker 1: was fine.

1077
00:47:36,239 --> 00:47:40,759
Speaker 3: All right. Next one here, what was your best individual

1078
00:47:40,800 --> 00:47:43,840
Speaker 3: game performance? What were your stats? Or gone back to

1079
00:47:43,920 --> 00:47:46,400
Speaker 3: the ball Corey Yander with that question.

1080
00:47:46,520 --> 00:47:50,040
Speaker 1: Yeah, so, like, obviously this relates to basketball, but no

1081
00:47:50,080 --> 00:47:53,319
Speaker 1: one keeps stats from our games, you know, So, I

1082
00:47:53,360 --> 00:47:55,400
Speaker 1: mean I've scored thirty a couple of times, which is great,

1083
00:47:55,680 --> 00:47:57,920
Speaker 1: But I'm actually going to tell stats. But I do

1084
00:47:58,400 --> 00:48:00,279
Speaker 1: you know there was a score sheet where we used

1085
00:48:00,320 --> 00:48:00,760
Speaker 1: to play.

1086
00:48:00,840 --> 00:48:01,960
Speaker 4: You played in leagues that keeps.

1087
00:48:01,880 --> 00:48:03,920
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, yeah, but not like yeah, so you can

1088
00:48:03,960 --> 00:48:05,880
Speaker 1: only know numbers that you scored in the game, So

1089
00:48:05,960 --> 00:48:09,719
Speaker 1: that thirty points, fine, whatever, get your assistant remount. You're

1090
00:48:09,719 --> 00:48:12,719
Speaker 1: a top screen assessed for a I probably I probably

1091
00:48:12,760 --> 00:48:15,279
Speaker 1: had a couple in the in the Metro Jam last year.

1092
00:48:15,320 --> 00:48:18,799
Speaker 1: You know, I was screened for the boys anyway, But

1093
00:48:18,840 --> 00:48:20,520
Speaker 1: I'm gonna I actually thought of this might be a

1094
00:48:20,520 --> 00:48:23,360
Speaker 1: story that you might enjoy. Anyway, Me and my mate Louis.

1095
00:48:23,520 --> 00:48:25,120
Speaker 1: You know, we were good mates. You've heard Louis a

1096
00:48:25,120 --> 00:48:28,200
Speaker 1: few times, and you know, as often is the case

1097
00:48:28,239 --> 00:48:30,640
Speaker 1: with close friends, you're also you know, that's your biggest

1098
00:48:30,719 --> 00:48:32,680
Speaker 1: rival when it comes to sport. For sure. You know

1099
00:48:32,680 --> 00:48:34,239
Speaker 1: you're sort of your cheer for each other, but you

1100
00:48:34,239 --> 00:48:36,279
Speaker 1: also want to beat you know, your friend as much

1101
00:48:36,280 --> 00:48:36,719
Speaker 1: as you can.

1102
00:48:37,239 --> 00:48:37,399
Speaker 2: Now.

1103
00:48:37,440 --> 00:48:39,840
Speaker 1: Louis was a much better Ozzie rules football than me,

1104
00:48:39,960 --> 00:48:42,160
Speaker 1: so that was no challenge. But at cricket and basketball

1105
00:48:42,160 --> 00:48:44,879
Speaker 1: we were a lot closer. And when we played basketball together,

1106
00:48:44,920 --> 00:48:46,880
Speaker 1: we're actually a pretty good team. We used to. We

1107
00:48:46,960 --> 00:48:48,600
Speaker 1: used to, you know, our chemistry was pretty good when

1108
00:48:48,640 --> 00:48:49,280
Speaker 1: we were on the same.

1109
00:48:49,600 --> 00:48:50,960
Speaker 2: Who's Billy and who's Sydney.

1110
00:48:54,000 --> 00:48:55,720
Speaker 1: I'll be Sydney, you're Sydney.

1111
00:48:55,800 --> 00:48:57,360
Speaker 4: I was gonna say, this guy took a three with

1112
00:48:57,480 --> 00:49:01,279
Speaker 4: his team losing after being an undefeated. Isn't there being eliminated.

1113
00:49:01,280 --> 00:49:04,080
Speaker 4: He's telling the greatest story about making his first three pointer.

1114
00:49:04,400 --> 00:49:05,640
Speaker 4: He wants to look good and Liz.

1115
00:49:07,800 --> 00:49:11,479
Speaker 1: Bill and anyway, So in the cricket world, we also

1116
00:49:11,680 --> 00:49:13,400
Speaker 1: so we played a lot of sports together just you know,

1117
00:49:13,440 --> 00:49:15,319
Speaker 1: the same agent. We're friends and all that. And in

1118
00:49:15,360 --> 00:49:17,200
Speaker 1: the cricket world, we were playing on the same team.

1119
00:49:17,239 --> 00:49:19,040
Speaker 1: And now you guys know that if you score a

1120
00:49:19,160 --> 00:49:21,160
Speaker 1: hundred runs, that's a huge thing to do in cricket.

1121
00:49:21,160 --> 00:49:25,040
Speaker 1: That's like, you know, that's what everyone wants and it's hard.

1122
00:49:25,080 --> 00:49:27,200
Speaker 1: And so one day we were playing and I used

1123
00:49:27,239 --> 00:49:29,879
Speaker 1: to be our leadoff hitter call of the opening batsman, right,

1124
00:49:29,880 --> 00:49:31,759
Speaker 1: there's two of there's always two of you. But I

1125
00:49:32,080 --> 00:49:33,839
Speaker 1: I was one of them, and Louis was number three.

1126
00:49:34,680 --> 00:49:37,520
Speaker 1: And so one day we were playing and I scored.

1127
00:49:37,560 --> 00:49:39,279
Speaker 1: I was on like sixty, and the other guy went out,

1128
00:49:39,320 --> 00:49:42,200
Speaker 1: so Louis came in and we were playing together and

1129
00:49:42,239 --> 00:49:44,920
Speaker 1: we batted and combined. Our partnership was one hundred and

1130
00:49:44,920 --> 00:49:47,560
Speaker 1: twenty three, right, and then I went out for one

1131
00:49:47,600 --> 00:49:50,319
Speaker 1: hundred and fourteen, right, So Louis was still out there

1132
00:49:50,320 --> 00:49:52,480
Speaker 1: on like sixty or something like that, and I was like,

1133
00:49:53,080 --> 00:49:54,840
Speaker 1: I was like, you know, I was obviously pumped. I

1134
00:49:54,920 --> 00:49:56,480
Speaker 1: mean I was calling dad, I was calling for I

1135
00:49:56,520 --> 00:49:58,799
Speaker 1: scored one hundred, you know. I was just like, you know,

1136
00:49:58,920 --> 00:50:02,440
Speaker 1: like it's a men's yeah, real proper game, Like everything

1137
00:50:02,520 --> 00:50:03,680
Speaker 1: was was legit.

1138
00:50:04,480 --> 00:50:05,919
Speaker 2: Just seeing the ball well that day.

1139
00:50:05,840 --> 00:50:08,640
Speaker 1: Were I just saw it perfectly that day, fourteen four

1140
00:50:08,719 --> 00:50:11,719
Speaker 1: sixty six, small ground still, I was just like it

1141
00:50:11,800 --> 00:50:14,080
Speaker 1: was just in the zone of the field, you're delta exactly.

1142
00:50:14,560 --> 00:50:17,400
Speaker 1: And anyway, so Louis was on sixteen, so I was like,

1143
00:50:17,440 --> 00:50:19,799
Speaker 1: you know, I was like, all right, my score is

1144
00:50:19,840 --> 00:50:22,080
Speaker 1: gonna be is going to be the biggest score of

1145
00:50:22,080 --> 00:50:23,520
Speaker 1: the day anyway.

1146
00:50:23,560 --> 00:50:24,200
Speaker 2: So Louis just.

1147
00:50:24,120 --> 00:50:26,399
Speaker 1: Starts keeps on batting, and he gets up to eighty

1148
00:50:26,480 --> 00:50:29,200
Speaker 1: eighty five and I'm like, that's all right, it's all right.

1149
00:50:29,680 --> 00:50:32,359
Speaker 1: Then he makes a hundred and I'm like, okay, as

1150
00:50:32,400 --> 00:50:34,280
Speaker 1: long as he makes less than one hundred and fourteen,

1151
00:50:34,719 --> 00:50:36,360
Speaker 1: you know, I'll be happy for him still, And I

1152
00:50:36,360 --> 00:50:38,200
Speaker 1: don't have to pretend that I'm not cheering for him

1153
00:50:38,239 --> 00:50:41,520
Speaker 1: because he's on my team. On one hundred and thirteen,

1154
00:50:42,400 --> 00:50:45,000
Speaker 1: Louis hits the ball up in the air. Easy catch

1155
00:50:45,040 --> 00:50:45,520
Speaker 1: for this guy.

1156
00:50:45,680 --> 00:50:46,879
Speaker 2: Oh no, he drops it.

1157
00:50:47,320 --> 00:50:51,960
Speaker 1: The guy drops the cat on the side. I couldn't

1158
00:50:51,960 --> 00:51:00,200
Speaker 1: help it on the side. I'm like, so, Louie, it's

1159
00:51:00,200 --> 00:51:02,479
Speaker 1: a life. So he keeps batting. He makes one hundred

1160
00:51:02,520 --> 00:51:02,880
Speaker 1: and twenty.

1161
00:51:03,080 --> 00:51:03,720
Speaker 5: Oh my god.

1162
00:51:03,800 --> 00:51:04,440
Speaker 1: So he comes out.

1163
00:51:04,480 --> 00:51:05,359
Speaker 2: Everyone's like yeah.

1164
00:51:08,320 --> 00:51:11,440
Speaker 1: I was just like I can't fucking believe you, sad,

1165
00:51:14,640 --> 00:51:17,200
Speaker 1: and Louis like, did I hear you like shout when

1166
00:51:17,200 --> 00:51:20,680
Speaker 1: the guy dropped it to I was like, yes, I

1167
00:51:21,880 --> 00:51:24,759
Speaker 1: can't believe it. Louis on my biggest day on the

1168
00:51:24,800 --> 00:51:27,000
Speaker 1: cricket field, and you go out and beat it when

1169
00:51:27,000 --> 00:51:28,520
Speaker 1: you should have been caught. You should have been out

1170
00:51:28,520 --> 00:51:31,400
Speaker 1: for one hundred and thirteen, and uh yeah, it was

1171
00:51:31,440 --> 00:51:33,760
Speaker 1: just you know, it was just great sort of friendly banter.

1172
00:51:33,800 --> 00:51:35,880
Speaker 1: But then at the end of the season, as a

1173
00:51:35,920 --> 00:51:38,960
Speaker 1: bit of a sort of token, yeah, someone writes out

1174
00:51:38,960 --> 00:51:40,839
Speaker 1: the scorecard like the box score, so you keep it.

1175
00:51:41,239 --> 00:51:43,840
Speaker 1: And so they wrote out owls. But they made a

1176
00:51:43,880 --> 00:51:46,640
Speaker 1: mistake on his and only wrote the score up to

1177
00:51:46,680 --> 00:51:48,440
Speaker 1: one hundred and ten, even though they put still one

1178
00:51:48,480 --> 00:51:51,000
Speaker 1: hundred and twenty in there. So I kept saying to him, seeing,

1179
00:51:51,000 --> 00:51:53,600
Speaker 1: look the official score though you only got one hundred

1180
00:51:53,600 --> 00:51:56,560
Speaker 1: and ten. But we know it was just just an error.

1181
00:51:56,560 --> 00:51:59,360
Speaker 2: But can you this is just a straight up cricket question.

1182
00:51:59,440 --> 00:52:03,719
Speaker 2: Can you just keep batting forever? Can you? I mean,

1183
00:52:04,040 --> 00:52:06,600
Speaker 2: so like you're a thousand points like that?

1184
00:52:06,719 --> 00:52:10,680
Speaker 1: Well, I mean in Test cricket, in theory, yes you can,

1185
00:52:10,800 --> 00:52:12,200
Speaker 1: but but you just wouldn't do it. You get to

1186
00:52:12,200 --> 00:52:14,080
Speaker 1: a certain point where if you want to win the game,

1187
00:52:14,120 --> 00:52:15,839
Speaker 1: you have to stop batting to give the other team

1188
00:52:15,880 --> 00:52:18,960
Speaker 1: a chance because you have to defeat them. It's like tennis.

1189
00:52:19,000 --> 00:52:20,960
Speaker 1: You can't. You don't just beat them if you have

1190
00:52:21,000 --> 00:52:22,760
Speaker 1: a biggest score of them at the end of the match.

1191
00:52:22,840 --> 00:52:24,799
Speaker 2: But if I was the second or third Test match

1192
00:52:24,840 --> 00:52:27,600
Speaker 2: that is batter? Why would I ever stop? If you

1193
00:52:27,680 --> 00:52:28,080
Speaker 2: know what I mean?

1194
00:52:28,280 --> 00:52:30,360
Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean, well, like the chances are you're going

1195
00:52:30,400 --> 00:52:33,360
Speaker 1: to go out anyway. But you know, teams have batted

1196
00:52:33,360 --> 00:52:36,239
Speaker 1: for like two and a half days sometimes in five

1197
00:52:36,320 --> 00:52:39,279
Speaker 1: day cricket. But at that point it's like, well, if

1198
00:52:39,280 --> 00:52:41,440
Speaker 1: you don't stop and try to get the other team out,

1199
00:52:41,480 --> 00:52:42,239
Speaker 1: it's just going to be.

1200
00:52:42,320 --> 00:52:44,560
Speaker 2: So technically the answer is yes, you could keep going.

1201
00:52:44,640 --> 00:52:46,960
Speaker 1: Technically, yes you could. You could bat for all five

1202
00:52:47,040 --> 00:52:48,400
Speaker 1: days if you if you want.

1203
00:52:48,200 --> 00:52:50,160
Speaker 2: To, what's the most someone has ever done?

1204
00:52:50,960 --> 00:52:53,359
Speaker 1: Well, most, I mean guys have battered for like most

1205
00:52:53,440 --> 00:52:55,640
Speaker 1: runs in way. One guy in one Test match is

1206
00:52:55,640 --> 00:53:01,240
Speaker 1: Brian Lara, who scored four hundred not out okay against England.

1207
00:53:02,440 --> 00:53:05,080
Speaker 1: Yeah hit he made three seventy five in a game

1208
00:53:05,120 --> 00:53:06,960
Speaker 1: two once. There's been a lot of guys who've made

1209
00:53:06,960 --> 00:53:09,800
Speaker 1: three hundreds. Yeah, okay, good to know, yep.

1210
00:53:10,840 --> 00:53:14,399
Speaker 2: Next question, was there one incident or a moment when

1211
00:53:14,400 --> 00:53:16,960
Speaker 2: you moved to America and saw that all the world's

1212
00:53:17,040 --> 00:53:20,880
Speaker 2: stereotypes about US Australians were rate This is from obviously

1213
00:53:20,880 --> 00:53:23,960
Speaker 2: in Australian I would assume at least at rito three

1214
00:53:24,000 --> 00:53:24,879
Speaker 2: one six On.

1215
00:53:24,800 --> 00:53:27,520
Speaker 1: Twitter yeah, there's three things that I still get now,

1216
00:53:27,560 --> 00:53:30,560
Speaker 1: you know, nearly seven years into the US. You know,

1217
00:53:30,560 --> 00:53:32,319
Speaker 1: we get a lot of really hot days here in

1218
00:53:32,320 --> 00:53:34,919
Speaker 1: Atlanta in the summer, sort of endless days of heat,

1219
00:53:35,120 --> 00:53:38,320
Speaker 1: just the heat and humidity. And so anytime I'm talking

1220
00:53:38,320 --> 00:53:41,520
Speaker 1: to anybody American who I'm maybe not you know, that

1221
00:53:41,640 --> 00:53:45,000
Speaker 1: familiar with, and weather comes up, it's always like, oh,

1222
00:53:45,080 --> 00:53:47,880
Speaker 1: you're Australian, though you're used to it, as if every

1223
00:53:47,880 --> 00:53:50,120
Speaker 1: single day in Australia was just stinking hot.

1224
00:53:50,200 --> 00:53:52,400
Speaker 2: Yeah you're in the middle out there or something.

1225
00:53:52,480 --> 00:53:54,600
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, and that you love it as well. I

1226
00:53:55,080 --> 00:53:57,959
Speaker 1: hate the humidity. I hate the super hot humidity because

1227
00:53:57,960 --> 00:53:59,840
Speaker 1: it's just so hard to be outside. It's so uncomfortable.

1228
00:54:00,160 --> 00:54:03,720
Speaker 1: But again, people just go Australia, you know, so everyone

1229
00:54:03,760 --> 00:54:04,879
Speaker 1: just lives on the beach all day.

1230
00:54:05,719 --> 00:54:06,399
Speaker 2: So that's one.

1231
00:54:06,520 --> 00:54:09,279
Speaker 1: That's one. The other thing is surfing. A lot of

1232
00:54:09,280 --> 00:54:11,440
Speaker 1: people just assume that, you know, I'm a surfer and

1233
00:54:11,480 --> 00:54:13,279
Speaker 1: a good surfer. It's like, ah, you must have been

1234
00:54:13,280 --> 00:54:15,760
Speaker 1: a surfer. I was like, no, no, I've been surfing

1235
00:54:15,800 --> 00:54:17,400
Speaker 1: once in my life and I sucked at it. I

1236
00:54:17,480 --> 00:54:19,799
Speaker 1: just didn't like it at all. I mean, I've been

1237
00:54:20,160 --> 00:54:22,520
Speaker 1: body surfing and boogiey boarding, but not the surfing like

1238
00:54:22,719 --> 00:54:25,200
Speaker 1: Kelly Slater type surfing. You know where you I don't

1239
00:54:25,200 --> 00:54:26,680
Speaker 1: know what are you doing in and out of those

1240
00:54:26,680 --> 00:54:28,879
Speaker 1: half pipe type waves and stuff like that?

1241
00:54:29,000 --> 00:54:30,000
Speaker 2: Is Louis a surfer?

1242
00:54:30,280 --> 00:54:30,800
Speaker 1: Nah?

1243
00:54:30,880 --> 00:54:33,960
Speaker 2: Even Louis can't. Nah, No, Louis can't do it.

1244
00:54:34,680 --> 00:54:38,359
Speaker 1: And then the other thing is is rugby. When when

1245
00:54:38,360 --> 00:54:41,239
Speaker 1: I talk when people talk about football in Australia and

1246
00:54:41,280 --> 00:54:42,759
Speaker 1: I say, well, I'm not a rugby fan. I'm a

1247
00:54:42,800 --> 00:54:45,320
Speaker 1: Nazi rules fan. And They're saying, oh, what's the difference,

1248
00:54:45,320 --> 00:54:48,000
Speaker 1: And I'm like, well, you know, they're two completely different games,

1249
00:54:48,120 --> 00:54:51,400
Speaker 1: you know, but people are sort of just assume they're not.

1250
00:54:51,719 --> 00:54:55,680
Speaker 2: Yeah together, Yeah, I did, I'll admit before I went there.

1251
00:54:55,760 --> 00:54:57,560
Speaker 2: I did definitely when I was younger. It's like.

1252
00:54:59,120 --> 00:55:01,480
Speaker 1: I understand, you know, like like in different parts of America,

1253
00:55:01,560 --> 00:55:03,960
Speaker 1: you know, you've got you know, football areas and basketball

1254
00:55:03,960 --> 00:55:05,640
Speaker 1: areas and hockey airs and things like that, But in

1255
00:55:05,640 --> 00:55:07,719
Speaker 1: Australia it's the same. Like I don't know a thing

1256
00:55:07,719 --> 00:55:10,319
Speaker 1: about rugby. I couldn't tell you. I couldn't tell you

1257
00:55:10,400 --> 00:55:12,879
Speaker 1: five positions in rugby. You know, I just don't follow

1258
00:55:12,920 --> 00:55:15,520
Speaker 1: it at all. Where I grew up, rugby didn't exist

1259
00:55:15,840 --> 00:55:17,719
Speaker 1: at all, So I don't know anything about it. But

1260
00:55:17,960 --> 00:55:20,200
Speaker 1: people just sort of, you know, like I've had people

1261
00:55:20,400 --> 00:55:23,439
Speaker 1: the Rugby World Cups on this year. I'm like, okay, great, right,

1262
00:55:23,480 --> 00:55:24,360
Speaker 1: because you weren't.

1263
00:55:24,160 --> 00:55:26,720
Speaker 2: Even like you weren't watching or really gave it damn

1264
00:55:26,760 --> 00:55:29,480
Speaker 2: even about the national rugby team in Australia. I guess.

1265
00:55:29,640 --> 00:55:31,200
Speaker 2: I guess that's part it's a little surprising.

1266
00:55:31,320 --> 00:55:34,040
Speaker 1: Yeah, I guess if they did well, you would sort

1267
00:55:34,040 --> 00:55:36,120
Speaker 1: of know that. But I wouldn't be like sitting up

1268
00:55:36,120 --> 00:55:37,960
Speaker 1: at three in the morning if they were playing in

1269
00:55:38,080 --> 00:55:40,799
Speaker 1: South Africa or somewhere watching like that. So it's just

1270
00:55:41,000 --> 00:55:44,080
Speaker 1: it's just not a sport that really existed in Melbourne

1271
00:55:44,160 --> 00:55:45,680
Speaker 1: in the eighties and nineties. It came they have a

1272
00:55:45,719 --> 00:55:48,000
Speaker 1: team now, and that came in like ninety seven, ninety

1273
00:55:48,040 --> 00:55:51,319
Speaker 1: eight something like that. But you know, okay, I don't

1274
00:55:51,360 --> 00:55:52,080
Speaker 1: know anything about it.

1275
00:55:52,120 --> 00:55:52,759
Speaker 2: Those three things.

1276
00:55:52,840 --> 00:55:55,080
Speaker 3: Yeah, all right, a few more here. If missus del

1277
00:55:55,120 --> 00:55:59,960
Speaker 3: Fire had opted for a leapy, you know, reversing yourself

1278
00:56:00,080 --> 00:56:03,200
Speaker 3: on the toilet peeing towards the basin, as opposed to

1279
00:56:03,239 --> 00:56:06,120
Speaker 3: getting busted by his eldest daughter for peeing the old

1280
00:56:06,160 --> 00:56:10,160
Speaker 3: fashioned way standing up, could the charade have continued? That's

1281
00:56:10,160 --> 00:56:11,759
Speaker 3: from Kyle Bee. Interesting.

1282
00:56:12,520 --> 00:56:15,960
Speaker 1: It's a very interesting question because you assume if he,

1283
00:56:16,200 --> 00:56:19,799
Speaker 1: you know, she had to pull down her you know, undergarments,

1284
00:56:20,280 --> 00:56:24,040
Speaker 1: maybe the hairy legs would have been exposed. Maybe, so

1285
00:56:24,400 --> 00:56:27,440
Speaker 1: that would have probably caused similar confusion to seeing, you know,

1286
00:56:27,480 --> 00:56:30,359
Speaker 1: the old lady standing up and using the hose, you know.

1287
00:56:33,800 --> 00:56:35,000
Speaker 2: Would still been an issue.

1288
00:56:35,120 --> 00:56:37,080
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, yeah, but at least.

1289
00:56:36,960 --> 00:56:40,719
Speaker 4: If you are wearing a long gown and you're in

1290
00:56:40,800 --> 00:56:43,879
Speaker 4: leepee position, maybe you're blocking the legs from being seen.

1291
00:56:43,920 --> 00:56:45,520
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, it could be.

1292
00:56:45,640 --> 00:56:48,000
Speaker 3: Yeah, women are allowed to have hairy legs.

1293
00:56:48,360 --> 00:56:52,880
Speaker 4: Also true, Also true. I like this question though, because

1294
00:56:52,920 --> 00:56:56,799
Speaker 4: it's uh, it's like a new genre of would this

1295
00:56:56,840 --> 00:56:59,360
Speaker 4: movie be different if cell phones were around? I like

1296
00:56:59,520 --> 00:57:01,399
Speaker 4: the idea of going through every movie and saying, would

1297
00:57:01,400 --> 00:57:04,480
Speaker 4: this movie changed if that character sat backwards on a

1298
00:57:04,520 --> 00:57:07,520
Speaker 4: toilet instead. I don't know what else that's coming up,

1299
00:57:07,800 --> 00:57:09,880
Speaker 4: dumb and dumber. Maybe would it be different if he

1300
00:57:10,000 --> 00:57:16,240
Speaker 4: leaped when he's having explosive dialog? Nobody's coming in for sure, And.

1301
00:57:16,160 --> 00:57:18,640
Speaker 3: I don't remember the name of the email, so I'm

1302
00:57:18,640 --> 00:57:21,960
Speaker 3: not I'm not giving anything away, and heck he emailed

1303
00:57:22,000 --> 00:57:26,120
Speaker 3: this in anyways. But somebody emailed in his wife or

1304
00:57:26,160 --> 00:57:30,960
Speaker 3: girlfriend doing the leapee performing the leapee on the toilet

1305
00:57:31,000 --> 00:57:33,680
Speaker 3: a video, Yeah, a video. She was in a robe

1306
00:57:33,800 --> 00:57:36,960
Speaker 3: and she said that was her preferred way of operating

1307
00:57:36,960 --> 00:57:39,720
Speaker 3: the leap piece. So we got like a sort of

1308
00:57:39,760 --> 00:57:44,000
Speaker 3: behind the scene, like a behind point of view of

1309
00:57:44,040 --> 00:57:46,120
Speaker 3: the toilet. So you know, it wasn't like a frontal

1310
00:57:46,200 --> 00:57:49,080
Speaker 3: view or anything, but a full video. We got a

1311
00:57:49,080 --> 00:57:52,360
Speaker 3: full video sent in crazy stuff, just.

1312
00:57:52,320 --> 00:57:55,120
Speaker 1: A quick you know around the table here. If any

1313
00:57:55,160 --> 00:57:57,800
Speaker 1: of your wives, quote quote you videoing them well at

1314
00:57:57,840 --> 00:57:59,000
Speaker 1: having a pee, how would they recall?

1315
00:58:00,680 --> 00:58:01,040
Speaker 4: Not good?

1316
00:58:01,160 --> 00:58:04,040
Speaker 1: You know, I said they wouldn't be then putting it

1317
00:58:04,080 --> 00:58:05,240
Speaker 1: on the internet to share.

1318
00:58:05,040 --> 00:58:09,240
Speaker 3: With Yeah, that's the videotaping for your own personal preference

1319
00:58:09,400 --> 00:58:12,240
Speaker 3: is very different than emailing show.

1320
00:58:12,760 --> 00:58:14,440
Speaker 1: Yeah, did you ever get your.

1321
00:58:14,520 --> 00:58:20,680
Speaker 2: Take on the Curb your Enthusiasm episode where Larry creates

1322
00:58:21,000 --> 00:58:23,880
Speaker 2: you know, basically a urinal I guess you want to

1323
00:58:23,880 --> 00:58:27,800
Speaker 2: call it a toilet design for women in his store.

1324
00:58:28,200 --> 00:58:29,960
Speaker 2: That is sort of the idea of the leap he

1325
00:58:30,120 --> 00:58:31,880
Speaker 2: sort of, yeah, it's not exactly the same, but like

1326
00:58:31,880 --> 00:58:34,000
Speaker 2: you sort of almost it's almost like a like a

1327
00:58:34,160 --> 00:58:34,920
Speaker 2: like a motorbike.

1328
00:58:35,000 --> 00:58:37,800
Speaker 1: Yeah, hold on, yeah, hold on, yeah, because because he's

1329
00:58:37,840 --> 00:58:41,480
Speaker 1: saying that ladies don't like to actually sit there, right right, Yeah.

1330
00:58:41,400 --> 00:58:43,360
Speaker 2: That's right, that's right. What a public rush.

1331
00:58:43,800 --> 00:58:46,080
Speaker 1: Because you're not allowed to defecate in there, That's right,

1332
00:58:46,160 --> 00:58:51,120
Speaker 1: that's right, Joe's drop a dump.

1333
00:58:51,280 --> 00:58:51,480
Speaker 5: Yeah.

1334
00:58:51,520 --> 00:58:53,440
Speaker 1: I guess it's just a more modern version. But I

1335
00:58:53,440 --> 00:58:55,400
Speaker 1: guess it shows that like what people are thinking about it,

1336
00:58:55,440 --> 00:58:59,160
Speaker 1: aren't they to have done well? I mean, you know

1337
00:58:59,480 --> 00:59:02,280
Speaker 1: that's that's that's out there now, it is for sure.

1338
00:59:02,400 --> 00:59:02,600
Speaker 2: Yeah.

1339
00:59:02,680 --> 00:59:05,040
Speaker 1: So it's more an advanced version of the toilet to

1340
00:59:05,120 --> 00:59:08,040
Speaker 1: allow it to be more accepted and more comfortable.

1341
00:59:09,040 --> 00:59:11,560
Speaker 2: And I wonder with all of this working from home

1342
00:59:11,720 --> 00:59:16,840
Speaker 2: social distancing, you know, you mount the toilet, you could

1343
00:59:16,880 --> 00:59:18,880
Speaker 2: put the laptop on the back of the toilet or

1344
00:59:18,880 --> 00:59:21,640
Speaker 2: facing it. Continue to work crunch those numbers. I mean,

1345
00:59:21,680 --> 00:59:23,360
Speaker 2: I wonder if it'll kick up a little bit more

1346
00:59:23,360 --> 00:59:24,200
Speaker 2: here at the leap.

1347
00:59:24,440 --> 00:59:27,040
Speaker 1: Well yeah, I mean it's you're in a comfortable position.

1348
00:59:27,120 --> 00:59:29,200
Speaker 1: So that's really what it's all about, you know.

1349
00:59:29,480 --> 00:59:34,160
Speaker 2: All right, next one here, This one's from George in Warwick, England. Hey,

1350
00:59:34,200 --> 00:59:36,040
Speaker 2: lely as you've had the pleasure of living in some

1351
00:59:36,080 --> 00:59:38,360
Speaker 2: of the greatest sporting cities in the world, you are

1352
00:59:38,400 --> 00:59:42,960
Speaker 2: pretty well qualified to answer. Is MSG really the world's

1353
00:59:42,960 --> 00:59:45,880
Speaker 2: most famous arena? It's always struck me as one of

1354
00:59:45,880 --> 00:59:49,560
Speaker 2: those americanisms forgetting the world outside of the US even exists.

1355
00:59:50,160 --> 00:59:55,400
Speaker 2: Surely the mcg Wembley Stadium, the Maracana, or even the

1356
00:59:55,440 --> 00:59:58,480
Speaker 2: Bird's Nest would be more renowned across the planet. Would

1357
00:59:58,520 --> 01:00:01,280
Speaker 2: love to hear what you're face ritar again, that's from George.

1358
01:00:01,320 --> 01:00:03,160
Speaker 2: George the palm he rates.

1359
01:00:03,520 --> 01:00:07,440
Speaker 1: Yeah, what is that? Is that an Australoman thing to English?

1360
01:00:07,520 --> 01:00:07,720
Speaker 5: Yeah?

1361
01:00:07,920 --> 01:00:11,880
Speaker 1: Yeah, we call them the pomps. I mean, it might

1362
01:00:11,920 --> 01:00:15,880
Speaker 1: be the most famous arena, but it's not the greatest

1363
01:00:15,920 --> 01:00:16,640
Speaker 1: arena in the world.

1364
01:00:17,040 --> 01:00:17,360
Speaker 2: MSG.

1365
01:00:17,560 --> 01:00:20,160
Speaker 1: Yes, sorry, MSG. Yes, it's most famous, I mean because

1366
01:00:20,160 --> 01:00:22,800
Speaker 1: it's in New York City, you know, one of the

1367
01:00:22,840 --> 01:00:26,320
Speaker 1: most famous cities of course, in the world. But I mean,

1368
01:00:26,440 --> 01:00:30,360
Speaker 1: I just don't think it's big enough to be, you know,

1369
01:00:30,520 --> 01:00:32,160
Speaker 1: the world's greatest arena.

1370
01:00:32,160 --> 01:00:33,240
Speaker 2: Okay, so what do you think it is.

1371
01:00:33,480 --> 01:00:36,160
Speaker 1: I've been well, I'm very lucky because I have been

1372
01:00:36,200 --> 01:00:39,560
Speaker 1: to the American Art in Rio, the New Camp in Barcelona,

1373
01:00:39,600 --> 01:00:42,120
Speaker 1: Wembley and the MCG obviously in Melbourne is one that

1374
01:00:42,520 --> 01:00:44,360
Speaker 1: I've probably been to the most, just because I grew

1375
01:00:44,400 --> 01:00:46,360
Speaker 1: up there. And that holds one hundred thousand people. You

1376
01:00:46,440 --> 01:00:49,040
Speaker 1: see it every September at the Grand Final. How packed

1377
01:00:49,040 --> 01:00:51,600
Speaker 1: it is in there for the I went to a

1378
01:00:51,640 --> 01:00:52,560
Speaker 1: game there, Oh that's right.

1379
01:00:52,640 --> 01:00:52,800
Speaker 5: Yeah.

1380
01:00:53,040 --> 01:00:56,000
Speaker 1: And Wembley Stadium, I mean that has such a iconic

1381
01:00:56,080 --> 01:00:58,560
Speaker 1: history as well. The New Camp in Barcelona, I mean

1382
01:00:58,560 --> 01:01:01,760
Speaker 1: that holds I think it's ninety five thousand people there,

1383
01:01:02,200 --> 01:01:04,120
Speaker 1: and the American Area and Real I mean that's that's

1384
01:01:04,160 --> 01:01:09,200
Speaker 1: the most famous football arena maybe in the world, and

1385
01:01:09,320 --> 01:01:12,960
Speaker 1: I just feel like those ones having been there, you know,

1386
01:01:13,000 --> 01:01:15,600
Speaker 1: the atmosphere is different. They're outdoor as well, which helps. Yeah.

1387
01:01:15,720 --> 01:01:19,040
Speaker 1: I always think an outdoor arena is just it's better

1388
01:01:19,080 --> 01:01:21,439
Speaker 1: to watch any sort of event, whether it's a game

1389
01:01:21,560 --> 01:01:25,520
Speaker 1: or a concert or whatever. So I mean, the MSG

1390
01:01:25,600 --> 01:01:27,960
Speaker 1: is fine, but it's sort of it's more just its

1391
01:01:28,000 --> 01:01:30,880
Speaker 1: location rather than the arena itself, if you know what

1392
01:01:30,880 --> 01:01:31,200
Speaker 1: I mean.

1393
01:01:31,360 --> 01:01:34,440
Speaker 2: Well, yeah, I mean it's called the world's most famous arena.

1394
01:01:34,520 --> 01:01:35,800
Speaker 2: A lot of these other ones are.

1395
01:01:35,720 --> 01:01:39,600
Speaker 1: Stadiums, right, yeah, okay, I mean, you know, splitting hair

1396
01:01:39,640 --> 01:01:41,120
Speaker 1: is a little bit there, but I just.

1397
01:01:42,960 --> 01:01:43,880
Speaker 2: Yes.

1398
01:01:45,440 --> 01:01:47,960
Speaker 1: But you know, like being at the New Camp to

1399
01:01:48,000 --> 01:01:51,960
Speaker 1: watch a Barcelona game is like incredible. Like the atmosphere

1400
01:01:51,960 --> 01:01:55,160
Speaker 1: there when you've got everyone just hanging off every single

1401
01:01:55,640 --> 01:01:57,400
Speaker 1: kick of the ball is great.

1402
01:01:57,680 --> 01:02:00,280
Speaker 2: So what are you going with, man? Pick one's your

1403
01:02:00,320 --> 01:02:01,160
Speaker 2: favorite one you've ever been.

1404
01:02:01,560 --> 01:02:03,520
Speaker 1: I'm gonna I'm gonna play the Homer card here and

1405
01:02:03,520 --> 01:02:06,160
Speaker 1: I'm going to say the MCG because you know, having

1406
01:02:06,200 --> 01:02:08,520
Speaker 1: seen cricket there, having seen music events there, having seen

1407
01:02:08,880 --> 01:02:12,240
Speaker 1: rules there, like it's always been it's always just been

1408
01:02:12,280 --> 01:02:14,200
Speaker 1: something special. But I guess you feel a little bit

1409
01:02:14,200 --> 01:02:16,640
Speaker 1: more homely there. You know, you jump on the train,

1410
01:02:17,160 --> 01:02:19,240
Speaker 1: you get out, and you're at the G for a

1411
01:02:19,320 --> 01:02:19,840
Speaker 1: huge event.

1412
01:02:20,120 --> 01:02:26,240
Speaker 3: G Yeah, okay, all right. Last question, really, this is

1413
01:02:26,280 --> 01:02:31,040
Speaker 3: a genuine question, is how this twitter starts it? What

1414
01:02:31,200 --> 01:02:36,040
Speaker 3: is Lee's favorite tree and why? If he doesn't have

1415
01:02:36,040 --> 01:02:38,600
Speaker 3: an answer, I'll be disappointed personally and on behalf of

1416
01:02:38,680 --> 01:02:44,360
Speaker 3: all trees. And that's from a stall chip man on Twitter.

1417
01:02:46,960 --> 01:02:47,080
Speaker 2: FA.

1418
01:02:47,760 --> 01:02:51,480
Speaker 1: I like the gum tree, the big old eucalyptus gum try.

1419
01:02:55,600 --> 01:02:57,920
Speaker 3: There are a lot of gum trees outside of the MCG,

1420
01:02:58,000 --> 01:02:59,240
Speaker 3: your big home, you know.

1421
01:02:59,200 --> 01:03:02,680
Speaker 1: Where they are actually tay. In Athens, they have gum trees.

1422
01:03:02,720 --> 01:03:03,280
Speaker 3: Really yeah.

1423
01:03:03,320 --> 01:03:05,520
Speaker 1: I remember at the Olympics. I remember walking around and

1424
01:03:05,560 --> 01:03:07,560
Speaker 1: I was like, oh man, this looks like a gum tree,

1425
01:03:07,760 --> 01:03:11,280
Speaker 1: and it was. They planted a few there. They're just

1426
01:03:11,360 --> 01:03:16,080
Speaker 1: a beautiful, big, you know, strong, confident.

1427
01:03:19,080 --> 01:03:21,080
Speaker 5: Like when you look at like like we get a.

1428
01:03:21,080 --> 01:03:24,320
Speaker 1: Lot of those pine wood trees around here in Atlanta.

1429
01:03:24,760 --> 01:03:26,800
Speaker 1: I've seen like four or five of those fall down

1430
01:03:26,840 --> 01:03:27,760
Speaker 1: in the time we've been here.

1431
01:03:27,840 --> 01:03:29,560
Speaker 3: And it has nothing to do with the tree though.

1432
01:03:29,680 --> 01:03:31,880
Speaker 3: Don't blame the trees. It's all it's all in the

1433
01:03:31,880 --> 01:03:34,640
Speaker 3: clay soil that we got down here, can't establish the roots.

1434
01:03:34,680 --> 01:03:39,919
Speaker 1: I just don't remember seeing a gum tree. But I'm

1435
01:03:39,960 --> 01:03:41,320
Speaker 1: just saying there was one in the path the other

1436
01:03:41,400 --> 01:03:43,280
Speaker 1: day that went down. It wasn't even that big a

1437
01:03:43,440 --> 01:03:46,040
Speaker 1: storm that we had. Like, if you're going to go down,

1438
01:03:46,160 --> 01:03:48,320
Speaker 1: go down in a go down in a hurricane or

1439
01:03:48,320 --> 01:03:51,160
Speaker 1: something like that. Gum trees they just stand their ground

1440
01:03:51,160 --> 01:03:51,560
Speaker 1: in the weather.

1441
01:03:52,000 --> 01:03:55,280
Speaker 3: And trees we had down here in Atlanta, you ain't

1442
01:03:55,320 --> 01:03:58,640
Speaker 3: no gum tree. There's the leaves in a country aren't

1443
01:03:58,680 --> 01:04:00,600
Speaker 3: the most beautiful I.

1444
01:04:00,640 --> 01:04:06,000
Speaker 1: Know they are. You break there and you break one

1445
01:04:06,000 --> 01:04:08,440
Speaker 1: open and smell that eucalyptus, and it's beautiful. That's what

1446
01:04:08,480 --> 01:04:11,480
Speaker 1: the koalas live on. They eat that all day. And

1447
01:04:11,520 --> 01:04:13,680
Speaker 1: it's also it's just great for your senses. Like you

1448
01:04:13,800 --> 01:04:15,040
Speaker 1: you get a couple of those in there and you

1449
01:04:15,120 --> 01:04:18,040
Speaker 1: smell and you're like, oh, man, I feel great. No,

1450
01:04:18,080 --> 01:04:21,120
Speaker 1: they're good clean, cleans out the souls and the sensors.

1451
01:04:21,440 --> 01:04:24,840
Speaker 3: These these are like a vixed VP. Yeah, well exactly exactly.

1452
01:04:24,840 --> 01:04:27,560
Speaker 1: That's where the just comes from. Yeah, of course, and

1453
01:04:28,280 --> 01:04:33,640
Speaker 1: the kooko bar yeah, yeah, sits in the old country. Yeah,

1454
01:04:33,680 --> 01:04:35,520
Speaker 1: but they're just they are beautiful.

1455
01:04:35,800 --> 01:04:38,720
Speaker 3: Yeah, this nice really nice branches base.

1456
01:04:38,720 --> 01:04:40,160
Speaker 1: Yeah, good solid base.

1457
01:04:40,200 --> 01:04:40,360
Speaker 2: You know.

1458
01:04:40,400 --> 01:04:43,720
Speaker 1: That's neat the thing of these pine wood trees here,

1459
01:04:43,720 --> 01:04:46,400
Speaker 1: like they're just so thin, you know, Like that's why

1460
01:04:46,440 --> 01:04:47,800
Speaker 1: I think as well, you're talking about the soil. I

1461
01:04:47,800 --> 01:04:49,320
Speaker 1: think it's just the way that they.

1462
01:04:50,320 --> 01:04:53,160
Speaker 3: No, it's not. We're living a city of forest here.

1463
01:04:53,640 --> 01:04:57,120
Speaker 4: In a forest, a gum tree wouldn't stand a chance here.

1464
01:04:57,960 --> 01:05:00,000
Speaker 1: Come on, the gum trees can handle the weather as well.

1465
01:05:00,400 --> 01:05:01,880
Speaker 1: They're not wises, you know, and they're not going to

1466
01:05:01,920 --> 01:05:06,800
Speaker 1: comply with us too hot you Yeah, exactly exactly. You

1467
01:05:06,920 --> 01:05:09,360
Speaker 1: know they can we stand any conditions. I just you

1468
01:05:09,400 --> 01:05:12,000
Speaker 1: know they're bowld this strong and then the sort of

1469
01:05:12,000 --> 01:05:12,800
Speaker 1: tree you want to be.

1470
01:05:13,000 --> 01:05:15,360
Speaker 2: Well, yeah, we ended up we haded on a strong

1471

1476
01:05:29,640 --> 01:05:32,440
Speaker 2: despite of course there being no basketball. We hope some

1477
01:05:32,480 --> 01:05:34,920
Speaker 2: of our random podcasts, be it like the Squad episode

1478
01:05:35,080 --> 01:05:39,640
Speaker 2: or our brand new No Buffs Survivor Recap podcast, hopefully

1479
01:05:39,680 --> 01:05:41,800
Speaker 2: it helped kill some time for you out there, maybe

1480
01:05:41,960 --> 01:05:43,720
Speaker 2: take your mind off some things, even if just for

1481
01:05:43,720 --> 01:05:48,160
Speaker 2: an hour. We'll have another what five or six podcasts

1482
01:05:48,280 --> 01:05:51,600
Speaker 2: lined up next week, so we ain't going anywhere. In fact,

1483
01:05:51,720 --> 01:05:57,120
Speaker 2: your weekend homework is to all watch Coach Carter. That

1484
01:05:57,160 --> 01:06:00,000
Speaker 2: will be the basketball movie we'll be dissecting on Monday

1485
01:06:00,080 --> 01:06:02,960
Speaker 2: Day's episode of Film Session. We did White Man Can't

1486
01:06:03,040 --> 01:06:07,680
Speaker 2: Jump on Monday, but this coming Monday, Coach Carter. All right,

1487
01:06:07,960 --> 01:06:09,680
Speaker 2: everybody's got to watch it. I'm talking to everybody here

1488
01:06:09,680 --> 01:06:10,640
Speaker 2: in the office, of course, Too.

1489
01:06:10,600 --> 01:06:13,400
Speaker 4: Sixty four on Rotten Tomatoes with an eighty five audience score.

1490
01:06:13,480 --> 01:06:15,640
Speaker 2: What well, I mean, I'm shocked.

1491
01:06:15,680 --> 01:06:16,560
Speaker 4: Those are high numbers.

1492
01:06:16,560 --> 01:06:20,240
Speaker 2: To me, I'm not very excited to dig into this movie.

1493
01:06:20,280 --> 01:06:20,480
Speaker 1: Again.

1494
01:06:20,520 --> 01:06:23,920
Speaker 2: I said that before, but it's very polarizing. People on

1495
01:06:23,960 --> 01:06:27,120
Speaker 2: Twitter are like, yes, my favorite movie of all time,

1496
01:06:27,520 --> 01:06:29,600
Speaker 2: or people are like, oh my god, this movie sucks.

1497
01:06:29,960 --> 01:06:31,840
Speaker 2: So maybe it will make for a fun podcast.

1498
01:06:31,520 --> 01:06:32,160
Speaker 4: A film session.

1499
01:06:32,280 --> 01:06:32,480
Speaker 3: Yeah.

1500
01:06:32,520 --> 01:06:34,320
Speaker 4: That's my guess is that if you were in high

1501
01:06:34,320 --> 01:06:36,640
Speaker 4: school when Coach Carter came out, you probably like it

1502
01:06:36,640 --> 01:06:38,600
Speaker 4: as a high school basketball movie. Because to me, it's

1503
01:06:38,680 --> 01:06:41,080
Speaker 4: like me, I really like Sunset Park, but that came

1504
01:06:41,120 --> 01:06:42,360
Speaker 4: out when I was in high school, and I bet

1505
01:06:42,360 --> 01:06:42,920
Speaker 4: it sucks now.

1506
01:06:43,000 --> 01:06:43,600
Speaker 2: Huh.

1507
01:06:43,600 --> 01:06:44,200
Speaker 4: So maybe that's it.

1508
01:06:44,240 --> 01:06:46,800
Speaker 2: Maybe we'll get to Sunset Too, But Coach Carter, that's

1509
01:06:46,800 --> 01:06:49,800
Speaker 2: the movie for Monday's Film Session podcast. Finally here I

1510
01:06:49,840 --> 01:06:51,880
Speaker 2: mentioned this earlier in the week. We had a number

1511
01:06:51,920 --> 01:06:54,160
Speaker 2: of you guys reach out to us to ask how

1512
01:06:54,160 --> 01:06:56,840
Speaker 2: you could sort of give back support the show during

1513
01:06:56,880 --> 01:06:59,600
Speaker 2: the NBA on hiatus. We don't need your money. We

1514
01:06:59,600 --> 01:07:01,080
Speaker 2: don't need money, unless, of course, you want to buy

1515
01:07:01,080 --> 01:07:03,400
Speaker 2: a No Duks t shirt. Go nuts now, dunks dot com.

1516
01:07:03,440 --> 01:07:06,240
Speaker 2: But we have picked a charity that we would encourage

1517
01:07:06,280 --> 01:07:09,160
Speaker 2: you to donate to on our behalf again. It's if

1518
01:07:09,160 --> 01:07:11,000
Speaker 2: that's something you're keen to do, because some of you

1519
01:07:11,040 --> 01:07:15,400
Speaker 2: wrote in. Charity is called CDP COVID nineteen Response Fund, right, Okay,

1520
01:07:15,440 --> 01:07:17,880
Speaker 2: not the sexiest name, but it has earned a four

1521
01:07:17,920 --> 01:07:21,800
Speaker 2: star Charity Navigator rating. So you know, if you're interested

1522
01:07:21,800 --> 01:07:25,520
Speaker 2: in funding response and recovery efforts for those affected, you know,

1523
01:07:25,560 --> 01:07:29,560
Speaker 2: helping out the responders as well, search for CDP COVID

1524
01:07:29,680 --> 01:07:32,920
Speaker 2: nineteen Response Fund, and so you know, donors out there

1525
01:07:32,960 --> 01:07:35,560
Speaker 2: you'd be supporting containment and response and recovery activities and

1526
01:07:35,560 --> 01:07:37,919
Speaker 2: all that. We'll make sure to tweet instagram that out.

1527
01:07:37,960 --> 01:07:41,200
Speaker 2: But again, if you wanted to do something and you

1528
01:07:41,240 --> 01:07:43,080
Speaker 2: wanted to sort of in a way thank us in

1529
01:07:43,120 --> 01:07:45,760
Speaker 2: a weird way for continuing the show here during the

1530
01:07:45,840 --> 01:07:48,479
Speaker 2: NBA being on hiatus, then then then give your money

1531
01:07:48,480 --> 01:07:51,320
Speaker 2: to something, some fund that really really truly needs it.

1532
01:07:51,400 --> 01:07:53,720
Speaker 2: So we'll share that all right, Cliver Rose.
