<v Speaker 2>the Olympics, but we're mostly focusing on our favorite heartwarming

0:00:30.880 --> 0:00:33.000
<v Speaker 2>and some heartbreaking moments that we'll share with you. But

0:00:33.120 --> 0:00:37.040
<v Speaker 2>welcome to this final Tea from Perry edition of Amy

0:00:37.120 --> 0:00:40.800
<v Speaker 2>and TJ. I'm laughing here because we have a kind

0:00:40.840 --> 0:00:44.839
<v Speaker 2>of a basic structure of how we are going through

0:00:44.880 --> 0:00:48.000
<v Speaker 2>this podcast. And I see ad Lib got up at

0:00:48.000 --> 0:00:50.960
<v Speaker 2>a normal time. Yes, you did not get up at

0:00:50.960 --> 0:00:58.000
<v Speaker 2>a normal three I got a bid three point fifty seven.

0:00:58.280 --> 0:01:00.600
<v Speaker 2>I would not call that normal for me. I'm just

0:01:00.720 --> 0:01:02.360
<v Speaker 2>you got up an hour and a half later than

0:01:02.400 --> 0:01:03.160
<v Speaker 2>you did yesterday.

0:01:04.319 --> 0:01:07.000
<v Speaker 1>So yeah, it's back to normal then, Oh yeah, because

0:01:07.000 --> 0:01:08.839
<v Speaker 1>we're so used to This is the first time, folks,

0:01:08.840 --> 0:01:11.479
<v Speaker 1>that we have recorded a podcast in two plus weeks

0:01:11.880 --> 0:01:15.160
<v Speaker 1>that there was not a in Olympic sporting event live

0:01:15.200 --> 0:01:17.520
<v Speaker 1>on the television as we were doing it. So I

0:01:17.520 --> 0:01:19.160
<v Speaker 1>don't know. We don't know what to do with ourselves.

0:01:19.280 --> 0:01:21.760
<v Speaker 2>I never thought that I would be so excited for

0:01:21.800 --> 0:01:24.600
<v Speaker 2>you to go back to waking up at four thirty,

0:01:25.000 --> 0:01:28.520
<v Speaker 2>because now I have some perspective, so hopefully we can.

0:01:28.600 --> 0:01:29.639
<v Speaker 2>You fell asleep at six.

0:01:29.560 --> 0:01:33.520
<v Speaker 1>Thirty last night, By the way, that felt good.

0:01:34.080 --> 0:01:35.120
<v Speaker 2>I'm glad. Are you rested?

0:01:36.040 --> 0:01:38.880
<v Speaker 1>I don't know, because I was up for sure at

0:01:38.920 --> 0:01:39.679
<v Speaker 1>eleven pm.

0:01:39.760 --> 0:01:41.680
<v Speaker 2>Oh see, that's what happens when you fall asleep at

0:01:41.680 --> 0:01:42.160
<v Speaker 2>six thirty.

0:01:42.280 --> 0:01:44.880
<v Speaker 1>So I tried again, and tried until midnight, and then

0:01:44.880 --> 0:01:46.640
<v Speaker 1>I ended up at three oh eight. Is when I

0:01:46.640 --> 0:01:49.240
<v Speaker 1>got no alarm was set. This was the day we

0:01:49.240 --> 0:01:50.760
<v Speaker 1>were supposed to sleep in. I said we could sleep

0:01:50.840 --> 0:01:52.040
<v Speaker 1>until five or six.

0:01:52.000 --> 0:01:53.520
<v Speaker 2>I know. And then I woke up and there was

0:01:53.600 --> 0:01:55.680
<v Speaker 2>no one next to me. I was sad.

0:01:56.080 --> 0:01:58.680
<v Speaker 1>You said no one, shouldn't you say? And I wasn't

0:01:58.680 --> 0:02:01.480
<v Speaker 1>next to you? We said no one like anything would

0:02:01.480 --> 0:02:02.040
<v Speaker 1>have than fine.

0:02:03.920 --> 0:02:05.720
<v Speaker 2>Oh the love of my life wasn't next to me.

0:02:06.320 --> 0:02:09.639
<v Speaker 1>That's better, okay, So yeah, said the Olympic is over.

0:02:09.720 --> 0:02:12.600
<v Speaker 1>I guess it'll take us a minute to get over that.

0:02:12.840 --> 0:02:17.240
<v Speaker 1>But we saw the closing ceremony yesterday. Of course we

0:02:17.280 --> 0:02:19.920
<v Speaker 1>should and we have given here. But the official final

0:02:20.360 --> 0:02:23.080
<v Speaker 1>medal count right now is one hundred and twenty six

0:02:23.160 --> 0:02:26.320
<v Speaker 1>overall medals with the US, China has ninety one and

0:02:26.400 --> 0:02:30.080
<v Speaker 1>Great Britain sixty five. But we've seen something robes that

0:02:30.080 --> 0:02:32.840
<v Speaker 1>we haven't seen ever in the Olympics. A tie.

0:02:32.960 --> 0:02:38.320
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, that's funny. US and China tied in the gold

0:02:38.360 --> 0:02:41.200
<v Speaker 2>medal count at forty and that is a first in

0:02:41.280 --> 0:02:45.280
<v Speaker 2>Olympic history. I love France finished in the top five

0:02:45.560 --> 0:02:47.880
<v Speaker 2>in medaling. This is the first time it's done so

0:02:47.960 --> 0:02:50.320
<v Speaker 2>since nineteen forty eight. So that you know. They said

0:02:50.360 --> 0:02:52.240
<v Speaker 2>if you were the home country, usually get a bump,

0:02:52.280 --> 0:02:55.080
<v Speaker 2>like a thirty percent bump in medals, and it looks

0:02:55.120 --> 0:02:57.480
<v Speaker 2>like that was exactly the case. If you ever didn't

0:02:57.480 --> 0:03:00.600
<v Speaker 2>believe in home court or home field advantage, this is

0:03:01.120 --> 0:03:02.560
<v Speaker 2>proof otherwise.

0:03:02.200 --> 0:03:06.160
<v Speaker 1>And that advantage was clear. Anytime you watch France in anything,

0:03:06.240 --> 0:03:08.680
<v Speaker 1>any of their athletes, they were great and supporting them.

0:03:08.760 --> 0:03:11.040
<v Speaker 1>That was really cool and fun to see that the

0:03:11.400 --> 0:03:15.520
<v Speaker 1>home team like that. So the US that total, and

0:03:15.560 --> 0:03:17.560
<v Speaker 1>again I think you probably know the US ends up

0:03:17.560 --> 0:03:20.600
<v Speaker 1>with the most medals every single Olympics, and usually by far.

0:03:21.280 --> 0:03:23.160
<v Speaker 1>We just said we're a big country, got more athletes

0:03:23.240 --> 0:03:27.080
<v Speaker 1>and more disciplines. That makes sense, fine, but we have

0:03:27.400 --> 0:03:31.040
<v Speaker 1>gotten more medals this a couple of times before, but

0:03:31.160 --> 0:03:34.080
<v Speaker 1>those other times were when we were the home team.

0:03:34.280 --> 0:03:36.560
<v Speaker 2>Ah, so twenty twenty eight's looking golden.

0:03:37.480 --> 0:03:39.920
<v Speaker 1>You can bank on it right now. The US will

0:03:39.920 --> 0:03:42.480
<v Speaker 1>have more than one hundred and twenty six medals in

0:03:43.680 --> 0:03:46.000
<v Speaker 1>Los Angeles. I will put money on it right now.

0:03:46.040 --> 0:03:47.720
<v Speaker 1>Now we got one hundred and twenty six. I guess

0:03:47.880 --> 0:03:51.040
<v Speaker 1>is that the right? Does that include Jordan Giles Browns

0:03:51.120 --> 0:03:51.880
<v Speaker 1>or not? Oh?

0:03:52.400 --> 0:03:56.200
<v Speaker 2>Ooh, that's such a good question. Damn wow. We should

0:03:56.200 --> 0:03:58.280
<v Speaker 2>find out because maybe it's one twenty five.

0:03:58.880 --> 0:04:03.760
<v Speaker 1>It might be, or have they or yeah.

0:04:03.000 --> 0:04:05.400
<v Speaker 2>Oh we'll We'll have to do some research and we

0:04:05.400 --> 0:04:07.480
<v Speaker 2>can report back. We can report back tomorrow.

0:04:08.240 --> 0:04:10.280
<v Speaker 1>But the final we this is another thing. We were

0:04:10.280 --> 0:04:13.200
<v Speaker 1>ready for the closing ceremony and it didn't take long

0:04:13.320 --> 0:04:18.839
<v Speaker 1>ropes before everybody's attention went to what the American athletes

0:04:19.400 --> 0:04:20.239
<v Speaker 1>were wearing.

0:04:22.440 --> 0:04:27.920
<v Speaker 2>Yes, yes, you pointed it out immediately. I I wasn't

0:04:27.920 --> 0:04:29.599
<v Speaker 2>sure what they were wearing. And then you nailed it.

0:04:29.640 --> 0:04:33.720
<v Speaker 2>You went online you're like, yep, everyone agrees. It was

0:04:33.760 --> 0:04:35.440
<v Speaker 2>the first time a lot of us have seen them.

0:04:35.480 --> 0:04:37.919
<v Speaker 2>I know they unveiled Ralph Lauren unveiled the opening and

0:04:37.920 --> 0:04:41.360
<v Speaker 2>closing ceremony uniforms like two months ago, but I wasn't

0:04:41.360 --> 0:04:43.000
<v Speaker 2>paying attention. I don't think a lot of people were

0:04:43.040 --> 0:04:47.440
<v Speaker 2>paying attention. But we were paying attention last night. Ralph

0:04:47.480 --> 0:04:50.880
<v Speaker 2>Lauren describes what we saw last night as this a

0:04:50.960 --> 0:04:54.920
<v Speaker 2>sporty moto style jacket paired with white denim and a

0:04:54.960 --> 0:04:58.039
<v Speaker 2>polo shirt. TJ. You saw them what.

0:04:58.160 --> 0:05:02.840
<v Speaker 1>Way NASCAR pick crew period, And as soon as.

0:05:02.760 --> 0:05:05.720
<v Speaker 2>You said it, I was like, oh my god, that's exactly.

0:05:05.400 --> 0:05:07.440
<v Speaker 1>What that is. And I'm sitting here, you and I

0:05:07.520 --> 0:05:09.560
<v Speaker 1>just going back and forth. I'm saying, why do this

0:05:09.600 --> 0:05:10.680
<v Speaker 1>look like a NASCAR team?

0:05:10.720 --> 0:05:10.800
<v Speaker 2>Now?

0:05:10.800 --> 0:05:14.719
<v Speaker 1>I'd seen the uniforms previously, but in images where there

0:05:14.760 --> 0:05:17.320
<v Speaker 1>might be just be two athletes standing there or a

0:05:17.360 --> 0:05:19.080
<v Speaker 1>few athletes in that. And that was a couple of

0:05:19.080 --> 0:05:22.480
<v Speaker 1>months ago. Nobody really paid attention. But when Katie Ledecci

0:05:23.240 --> 0:05:26.640
<v Speaker 1>came out with the roar tell me with his name

0:05:26.720 --> 0:05:27.719
<v Speaker 1>right now, it's sticking in my mind.

0:05:30.920 --> 0:05:31.040
<v Speaker 2>Nick.

0:05:31.640 --> 0:05:37.160
<v Speaker 1>When they came out, that was our first look. But

0:05:37.200 --> 0:05:40.240
<v Speaker 1>then when the whole team, when you saw them together,

0:05:41.120 --> 0:05:44.520
<v Speaker 1>it looked like a pit crew in fire suits getting

0:05:44.520 --> 0:05:47.599
<v Speaker 1>ready to change tires.

0:05:47.640 --> 0:05:50.080
<v Speaker 2>And you know what I mean to your point, they

0:05:50.080 --> 0:05:53.719
<v Speaker 2>were down on a field with you know, an audience

0:05:53.720 --> 0:05:55.920
<v Speaker 2>looking down on them. So I don't know that they

0:05:56.000 --> 0:05:59.920
<v Speaker 2>considered collectively what they would look like. Even with the

0:06:00.120 --> 0:06:02.040
<v Speaker 2>drone shots. I mean there were so many shots that

0:06:02.120 --> 0:06:06.120
<v Speaker 2>made them look even more like a pit crew. Yeah,

0:06:06.120 --> 0:06:08.239
<v Speaker 2>I don't know that that was what the goal was.

0:06:08.360 --> 0:06:10.040
<v Speaker 1>That last night it was hot.

0:06:10.680 --> 0:06:13.880
<v Speaker 2>Oh yeah, everyone was fanning themselves. So I saw I

0:06:13.920 --> 0:06:17.440
<v Speaker 2>think Paris was eighty nine degrees that day, you know,

0:06:17.440 --> 0:06:21.080
<v Speaker 2>at five pm it's the hottest. So they started. Yeah,

0:06:21.360 --> 0:06:26.080
<v Speaker 2>everybody was sweltering. We saw other athletes other countries in

0:06:26.160 --> 0:06:31.039
<v Speaker 2>tank tops, and our poor folks were in sweatsuits.

0:06:31.560 --> 0:06:33.640
<v Speaker 1>It looked so that was the thing. I when I

0:06:33.680 --> 0:06:35.599
<v Speaker 1>first saw them, I did think it was a full

0:06:35.800 --> 0:06:37.760
<v Speaker 1>fire suit like the NASCAR drive.

0:06:37.839 --> 0:06:40.800
<v Speaker 2>I thought it was a ski like a skiing outfit,

0:06:40.839 --> 0:06:42.160
<v Speaker 2>like if you were going to go on the slopes,

0:06:42.200 --> 0:06:43.960
<v Speaker 2>you would be maybe wanting to look like that.

0:06:44.080 --> 0:06:46.560
<v Speaker 1>But it's jean. It was a separate pair of jeans

0:06:46.600 --> 0:06:49.080
<v Speaker 1>that said USA on it and the jacket, and people

0:06:49.279 --> 0:06:53.920
<v Speaker 1>absolutely dragged Ralph Lauren about these uniforms, and a lot

0:06:53.960 --> 0:06:55.800
<v Speaker 1>of people made funny little cracks. A lot of it

0:06:55.839 --> 0:06:58.000
<v Speaker 1>had to do with NASCAR and pick Crew. Some people

0:06:58.040 --> 0:06:59.800
<v Speaker 1>were a little you can imagine.

0:06:59.400 --> 0:07:01.520
<v Speaker 2>You were laughing. You were the memes.

0:07:01.640 --> 0:07:03.800
<v Speaker 1>Some of the stuff people write, it was just funny.

0:07:03.839 --> 0:07:05.920
<v Speaker 1>But you cannot deny no matter what, even you don't

0:07:05.920 --> 0:07:09.120
<v Speaker 1>want to criticize it. You can't help the resemblance. It's there.

0:07:09.400 --> 0:07:11.160
<v Speaker 1>And the other thing, they did it on purpose. They

0:07:11.200 --> 0:07:13.760
<v Speaker 1>put those patches on, and would you believe The New

0:07:13.840 --> 0:07:15.840
<v Speaker 1>York Times actually did an article on it and they

0:07:16.000 --> 0:07:20.480
<v Speaker 1>interviewed someone who designs fire suits. They interviewed somebody that

0:07:20.640 --> 0:07:24.000
<v Speaker 1>designs these things. But they said the patches. They said, hey,

0:07:24.040 --> 0:07:26.640
<v Speaker 1>that's an in a trending thing. And the athletes had

0:07:26.640 --> 0:07:29.760
<v Speaker 1>a specific patch for their discipline, whatever their sport was.

0:07:30.400 --> 0:07:34.800
<v Speaker 1>That all sounds cool, but the execution and how it

0:07:34.920 --> 0:07:37.160
<v Speaker 1>ends up coming off. I think we talked about this

0:07:37.240 --> 0:07:40.160
<v Speaker 1>a lot of the track and field and a lot

0:07:40.160 --> 0:07:43.400
<v Speaker 1>of a lot of the uniforms we saw throughout the Olympics.

0:07:43.640 --> 0:07:46.040
<v Speaker 1>You said, you know what, that probably looked really good

0:07:46.080 --> 0:07:50.160
<v Speaker 1>on paper or good in person. But it doesn't translate

0:07:50.200 --> 0:07:51.320
<v Speaker 1>necessarily on television.

0:07:51.400 --> 0:07:53.120
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, it's true. It's so true. And by the way,

0:07:53.120 --> 0:07:57.200
<v Speaker 2>those jackets they retail for what thousand dollars, so they

0:07:57.440 --> 0:07:58.320
<v Speaker 2>aren't cheap.

0:07:58.200 --> 0:08:00.760
<v Speaker 1>And they're currently sold out. So I know you were

0:08:00.840 --> 0:08:03.800
<v Speaker 1>jumping on the grab you one, but they're currently sold out.

0:08:04.760 --> 0:08:08.320
<v Speaker 1>But this is what Ralph Lauren has criticism of the design.

0:08:08.360 --> 0:08:10.720
<v Speaker 1>Everybody's going to have something to say. That's fine, certainly

0:08:10.720 --> 0:08:12.680
<v Speaker 1>on this big of stage, but it always is a

0:08:13.640 --> 0:08:16.520
<v Speaker 1>you know, it's usually a very preppy look that Ralph

0:08:16.600 --> 0:08:18.880
<v Speaker 1>Lauren gives with the jackets and the tides, and they

0:08:18.880 --> 0:08:23.120
<v Speaker 1>have the hats. One year, what was that the There's

0:08:23.120 --> 0:08:24.960
<v Speaker 1>been so many things that stand out. What was it?

0:08:25.000 --> 0:08:27.760
<v Speaker 1>I remember Kobe Bryant wearing was he wearing the hat?

0:08:28.160 --> 0:08:28.200
<v Speaker 2>Was?

0:08:28.560 --> 0:08:31.320
<v Speaker 1>I just remember over the years, these books that they've had,

0:08:31.320 --> 0:08:32.280
<v Speaker 1>they're often preppy.

0:08:32.640 --> 0:08:37.000
<v Speaker 2>This was this was nascari and that hat added to

0:08:37.040 --> 0:08:38.760
<v Speaker 2>it too. It was like a trucker hat kind of

0:08:38.760 --> 0:08:42.000
<v Speaker 2>a look, and it led that totally added to the

0:08:42.080 --> 0:08:42.640
<v Speaker 2>NASCAR look.

0:08:42.720 --> 0:08:44.800
<v Speaker 1>I'm gonna nail this for you because somebody else nailed

0:08:44.840 --> 0:08:47.280
<v Speaker 1>and I read like, oh, yeah, they look like the

0:08:47.320 --> 0:08:51.160
<v Speaker 1>hats that cyclists wear like on the Twitter fronts or something.

0:08:51.600 --> 0:08:53.600
<v Speaker 1>They have a specific kind of hat with patches in

0:08:53.600 --> 0:08:55.960
<v Speaker 1>a different color. Oh. I said, wow, that is that's

0:08:57.440 --> 0:09:01.199
<v Speaker 1>the inspiration was there from Ralph Lauren. It was memorable

0:09:01.320 --> 0:09:04.520
<v Speaker 1>and the athletes are required. They are required, they have

0:09:04.679 --> 0:09:07.439
<v Speaker 1>to wear that. They can't just miss it up come

0:09:07.480 --> 0:09:08.080
<v Speaker 1>out somehow.

0:09:08.120 --> 0:09:09.520
<v Speaker 2>I feel like if you were an athlete, you would

0:09:09.520 --> 0:09:13.640
<v Speaker 2>have found a way to style it differently, turned the

0:09:13.679 --> 0:09:16.440
<v Speaker 2>hat backwards something like. I feel like you would have

0:09:16.480 --> 0:09:17.400
<v Speaker 2>done something to it.

0:09:17.480 --> 0:09:20.720
<v Speaker 1>We'd have to figure something out. But congrats to them.

0:09:20.720 --> 0:09:22.800
<v Speaker 1>But they were having fun down there to the Actually,

0:09:23.040 --> 0:09:26.840
<v Speaker 1>did you like the.

0:09:25.400 --> 0:09:28.880
<v Speaker 2>The athlete karaoke? I thought you were gonna ask me that. Yes,

0:09:28.920 --> 0:09:30.920
<v Speaker 2>you know what I liked about it. I liked that

0:09:31.000 --> 0:09:34.560
<v Speaker 2>you got to see the athletes having fun. And I

0:09:34.640 --> 0:09:38.920
<v Speaker 2>heard the commentators say, look, they're just like us. They

0:09:39.040 --> 0:09:41.160
<v Speaker 2>liked to sing along with songs that we all know.

0:09:41.600 --> 0:09:43.760
<v Speaker 2>You know, I it did it. You know you could

0:09:43.760 --> 0:09:45.480
<v Speaker 2>look at it where it was a humanizing moment. It

0:09:45.520 --> 0:09:47.480
<v Speaker 2>was a relatable moment. I thought it was kind of

0:09:47.520 --> 0:09:49.760
<v Speaker 2>a brilliant marketing thing because yes, you got to see

0:09:49.760 --> 0:09:51.960
<v Speaker 2>the athletes smiling and singing, but they were all also

0:09:52.040 --> 0:09:54.000
<v Speaker 2>doing it on their social media. So if you wanted

0:09:54.000 --> 0:09:57.600
<v Speaker 2>this to trend, if you wanted the closing ceremonies to trend,

0:09:57.600 --> 0:09:59.240
<v Speaker 2>and people who are on social media and maybe not

0:09:59.280 --> 0:10:02.120
<v Speaker 2>watching it on TV might see their favorite athlete and

0:10:02.360 --> 0:10:04.720
<v Speaker 2>tune in. So I thought it was actually maybe pretty

0:10:04.720 --> 0:10:08.080
<v Speaker 2>smart to bring in perhaps younger viewers.

0:10:08.280 --> 0:10:10.680
<v Speaker 1>Was the Were there actually words up there? I didn't.

0:10:11.200 --> 0:10:13.240
<v Speaker 1>It was just a sing along karaoke.

0:10:13.000 --> 0:10:15.400
<v Speaker 2>Right, Oh, just I think they just used karaoke because

0:10:15.720 --> 0:10:18.960
<v Speaker 2>that is something that it would bring people to it, like,

0:10:18.960 --> 0:10:21.920
<v Speaker 2>ooh karaoke. The athletes are singing we are the champ

0:10:22.000 --> 0:10:22.680
<v Speaker 2>We are the champions.

0:10:22.720 --> 0:10:23.920
<v Speaker 1>Oh, I can remember the other I think they did

0:10:23.920 --> 0:10:24.400
<v Speaker 1>two or three.

0:10:24.520 --> 0:10:25.200
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, they did a couple.

0:10:25.559 --> 0:10:27.000
<v Speaker 1>To see them out there just cutting up, having a

0:10:27.000 --> 0:10:30.280
<v Speaker 1>good time, and it's something I love about the opening ceremony.

0:10:30.280 --> 0:10:32.000
<v Speaker 1>You see the difference between the opening and the closing.

0:10:32.040 --> 0:10:34.920
<v Speaker 1>You don't just stick with your You're not introduced one

0:10:34.960 --> 0:10:37.440
<v Speaker 1>at a time, coming in with your delegation. They have

0:10:37.640 --> 0:10:39.680
<v Speaker 1>all the athletes just flood in and that's the point.

0:10:39.679 --> 0:10:41.680
<v Speaker 1>You all come in together and you mingle and you

0:10:41.760 --> 0:10:45.320
<v Speaker 1>mix and you're all friends. Now after going through the experience.

0:10:45.120 --> 0:10:47.120
<v Speaker 2>Like that that was really cool. What did you think

0:10:47.120 --> 0:10:51.319
<v Speaker 2>about so our flag bearers, Katie Ledecki and the aforementioned rower,

0:10:51.400 --> 0:10:54.760
<v Speaker 2>Nick Mead, came in and they were miked, and at

0:10:54.800 --> 0:10:56.920
<v Speaker 2>first I think we were like, oh, wow, this is cool.

0:10:57.480 --> 0:11:02.600
<v Speaker 2>You know, we heard the commentator, including Jimmy Fallon, try

0:11:02.600 --> 0:11:05.520
<v Speaker 2>and interview them. But it was it was a it

0:11:05.520 --> 0:11:09.520
<v Speaker 2>was a great idea, but it was tough. We know

0:11:09.559 --> 0:11:13.120
<v Speaker 2>as broadcasters what can happen, and it was so loud

0:11:13.720 --> 0:11:14.520
<v Speaker 2>in that stadium.

0:11:15.240 --> 0:11:17.800
<v Speaker 1>It's their earpiece and if they don't do it every

0:11:17.880 --> 0:11:20.120
<v Speaker 1>day and are used to doing that, it's hard. And

0:11:20.200 --> 0:11:23.800
<v Speaker 1>they had no floor director or tech guy down there

0:11:23.840 --> 0:11:26.840
<v Speaker 1>adjusting anything. They put the micshone. Once they walked out,

0:11:26.840 --> 0:11:29.079
<v Speaker 1>they were on their own and they couldn't hear that well.

0:11:29.160 --> 0:11:31.040
<v Speaker 1>And it's I don't know what they were focusing on.

0:11:31.480 --> 0:11:34.200
<v Speaker 1>It just didn't come off that well. But the idea

0:11:34.760 --> 0:11:37.360
<v Speaker 1>of having access to somebody who's on that stadium floor,

0:11:37.360 --> 0:11:38.800
<v Speaker 1>I thought was it was a nice idea.

0:11:38.880 --> 0:11:41.120
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, it's the worst when you're when you're back in

0:11:41.120 --> 0:11:43.320
<v Speaker 2>the studio and you're trying to talk to someone and

0:11:43.360 --> 0:11:45.240
<v Speaker 2>they say, I'm sorry, I can't hear you. Can you

0:11:45.280 --> 0:11:48.920
<v Speaker 2>repeat that question. Uh, that's always like, yikes, it's a

0:11:49.120 --> 0:11:51.800
<v Speaker 2>it's it's unfortunate, and it's there's nothing you can do

0:11:51.840 --> 0:11:54.200
<v Speaker 2>about it. And we kind of we kind of chuckled

0:11:54.200 --> 0:11:56.079
<v Speaker 2>as broadcasters.

0:11:56.080 --> 0:11:59.120
<v Speaker 1>We just know what that feels like it will especially

0:11:59.120 --> 0:12:02.080
<v Speaker 1>when Okay, Katie Ladecki or Nick medi we were in

0:12:02.080 --> 0:12:05.120
<v Speaker 1>those two positions and it's that loud down there and

0:12:05.200 --> 0:12:07.200
<v Speaker 1>somebody back in the studio wants to ask a question.

0:12:07.280 --> 0:12:10.920
<v Speaker 1>Ask a question. You would appreciate saying, what's it like

0:12:11.040 --> 0:12:12.400
<v Speaker 1>down there? That kind of question?

0:12:12.559 --> 0:12:12.760
<v Speaker 2>Right?

0:12:13.160 --> 0:12:15.960
<v Speaker 1>They and Jimmy in particularly he said something made a

0:12:16.040 --> 0:12:17.920
<v Speaker 1>joke and it was a long kind of I was

0:12:17.960 --> 0:12:19.880
<v Speaker 1>trying to follow it, and I'm sitting on the couch

0:12:20.120 --> 0:12:22.400
<v Speaker 1>and I know they couldn't make And you knew.

0:12:22.160 --> 0:12:24.559
<v Speaker 2>That Katie Lidecki had no idea what he was saying

0:12:24.559 --> 0:12:26.400
<v Speaker 2>and no idea how to answer it. So you're cringing

0:12:26.440 --> 0:12:29.599
<v Speaker 2>before because you almost anticipated her not being able to

0:12:29.640 --> 0:12:30.440
<v Speaker 2>answer it.

0:12:30.520 --> 0:12:32.840
<v Speaker 1>But a good idea. And again, let me see, we

0:12:32.880 --> 0:12:36.120
<v Speaker 1>continue to applaud everything that we saw you all pull

0:12:36.120 --> 0:12:39.400
<v Speaker 1>off in these Olympics. The other highlight we watched yesterday,

0:12:39.440 --> 0:12:41.960
<v Speaker 1>it was a highlight watching the women's marathon at two

0:12:42.000 --> 0:12:43.440
<v Speaker 1>am yesterday.

0:12:43.679 --> 0:12:45.480
<v Speaker 2>It was so good that was worth getting up for us.

0:12:45.480 --> 0:12:47.680
<v Speaker 1>Okay, it was worth, but then we saw the payoff

0:12:47.840 --> 0:12:50.720
<v Speaker 1>at this ceremony. It isn't that nice that they got

0:12:50.880 --> 0:12:52.440
<v Speaker 1>their medals there?

0:12:52.960 --> 0:12:57.319
<v Speaker 2>Coolest medal ceremony ever. I mean to get your gold

0:12:57.360 --> 0:13:00.599
<v Speaker 2>medal for winning the marathon, the women's Marathonson Hassan of

0:13:00.640 --> 0:13:03.559
<v Speaker 2>the Netherlands. To be able to do that in that

0:13:03.640 --> 0:13:06.480
<v Speaker 2>stadium on a world stage with I don't know eighty

0:13:06.520 --> 0:13:09.319
<v Speaker 2>thousand people in the stadium, I'm just throwing that out there.

0:13:09.320 --> 0:13:10.319
<v Speaker 1>But what a.

0:13:10.440 --> 0:13:13.920
<v Speaker 2>Moment in her smile was so genuine I just said,

0:13:13.920 --> 0:13:16.520
<v Speaker 2>what an. She was just such an authentic you could.

0:13:16.960 --> 0:13:19.520
<v Speaker 2>I don't know her, but there was like a humility

0:13:19.559 --> 0:13:22.679
<v Speaker 2>to her and a humbleness despite all she accomplished during

0:13:23.040 --> 0:13:24.960
<v Speaker 2>these Olympics. I was in awe of her.

0:13:25.040 --> 0:13:27.560
<v Speaker 1>And what she accomplished is something the woman has ever accomplished.

0:13:27.640 --> 0:13:32.120
<v Speaker 1>She got medals in the three most difficult track and field.

0:13:32.160 --> 0:13:34.000
<v Speaker 1>I say grew, I should say grueling. Yes, with the

0:13:34.160 --> 0:13:37.120
<v Speaker 1>five thousand, the ten thousand, and the marathon. Wow, she

0:13:37.200 --> 0:13:40.080
<v Speaker 1>got two bronze and then she won the marathon. That's

0:13:40.080 --> 0:13:43.240
<v Speaker 1>just never been done and what the ten thousand were

0:13:43.280 --> 0:13:45.360
<v Speaker 1>and the marathon were a day and a half apart.

0:13:45.440 --> 0:13:47.000
<v Speaker 2>It was, yes, I think it was. I thought it

0:13:47.000 --> 0:13:49.400
<v Speaker 2>was a day and a half apart. Which apart, I mean,

0:13:49.559 --> 0:13:54.640
<v Speaker 2>I cannot imagine, And so she deserved that moment last night.

0:13:54.720 --> 0:13:55.920
<v Speaker 2>It was really cool.

0:13:56.520 --> 0:13:59.640
<v Speaker 1>The other cool moment and the performance at least was

0:14:00.679 --> 0:14:02.360
<v Speaker 1>we had it on kind of in the background and

0:14:02.360 --> 0:14:06.960
<v Speaker 1>we're working, but we lean into the TV and said,

0:14:06.640 --> 0:14:10.560
<v Speaker 1>is that piano hanging in the air. There was a

0:14:10.600 --> 0:14:12.840
<v Speaker 1>moment that everybody saw was just cool. This guy was

0:14:12.880 --> 0:14:19.200
<v Speaker 1>playing performing on the piano while it was vertically vertically elevated,

0:14:19.280 --> 0:14:22.200
<v Speaker 1>not just hovering kind of above the ground. This thing

0:14:22.440 --> 0:14:26.000
<v Speaker 1>was turned yeah, oh and vertically hanging, and so was

0:14:26.000 --> 0:14:29.120
<v Speaker 1>the performer on the piano. I thought that was incredible

0:14:29.160 --> 0:14:29.560
<v Speaker 1>to see that.

0:14:29.560 --> 0:14:32.040
<v Speaker 2>It was very cool. You pointed it out, and it was.

0:14:32.280 --> 0:14:36.000
<v Speaker 2>It was one of the last things we saw until

0:14:36.280 --> 0:14:39.400
<v Speaker 2>we have to be a little honest here. We definitely

0:14:39.400 --> 0:14:41.600
<v Speaker 2>planned our day around the events as we have been

0:14:41.640 --> 0:14:45.480
<v Speaker 2>throughout this entire Olympics. Volleyball at seven am, basketball final,

0:14:45.480 --> 0:14:48.120
<v Speaker 2>at nine thirty, we went to lunch. At one we

0:14:48.120 --> 0:14:49.960
<v Speaker 2>were back in front of the TV by three for

0:14:50.000 --> 0:14:52.320
<v Speaker 2>the closing ceremonies. We got an hour and a half

0:14:52.360 --> 0:14:56.760
<v Speaker 2>in and then we turned it off. I think one

0:14:56.760 --> 0:14:58.560
<v Speaker 2>of the last things we take notes when we're watching.

0:14:58.560 --> 0:15:01.440
<v Speaker 2>One of the last things I wrote about the closing

0:15:01.480 --> 0:15:06.400
<v Speaker 2>ceremonies aliens, aliens and dry ice and haunting music. I'm done.

0:15:06.680 --> 0:15:12.000
<v Speaker 1>That was my look are these are dramatic, cinematic, They

0:15:12.040 --> 0:15:14.560
<v Speaker 1>have themes, and you have to kind of follow the story.

0:15:14.640 --> 0:15:19.960
<v Speaker 1>They lost us and they lost us, yes after April's

0:15:19.960 --> 0:15:22.960
<v Speaker 1>sprits type of a brunch in New York. You need to.

0:15:24.280 --> 0:15:26.640
<v Speaker 1>It's difficult for us to follow a long kind of

0:15:26.680 --> 0:15:29.760
<v Speaker 1>a long drawn out thing. But it was the eye.

0:15:30.440 --> 0:15:35.280
<v Speaker 1>What was the golden traveler who had found the Olympic Green.

0:15:35.280 --> 0:15:35.960
<v Speaker 2>That's what you're telling.

0:15:36.120 --> 0:15:39.520
<v Speaker 1>And then they were excavated from the stadium and brought that.

0:15:39.640 --> 0:15:42.200
<v Speaker 1>I believe you, Okay, that was I didn't get that

0:15:42.240 --> 0:15:44.000
<v Speaker 1>in the moment. I did not either.

0:15:44.080 --> 0:15:46.800
<v Speaker 2>The funny thing is, so when we came back this morning,

0:15:46.880 --> 0:15:49.640
<v Speaker 2>we got up again very early to rewatch what we missed.

0:15:50.120 --> 0:15:52.720
<v Speaker 2>I'm laughing because if we had just stayed watching five

0:15:52.760 --> 0:15:54.840
<v Speaker 2>minutes longer, we would have seen what we had been

0:15:54.920 --> 0:15:55.440
<v Speaker 2>waiting for.

0:15:55.920 --> 0:15:59.360
<v Speaker 1>But I was confused. We thought, you know what, we

0:15:59.400 --> 0:16:01.520
<v Speaker 1>stopped it. This is why we stopped it because we

0:16:01.560 --> 0:16:03.320
<v Speaker 1>thought the ceremony was going to go three hours. Yeah,

0:16:03.360 --> 0:16:06.320
<v Speaker 1>we did the replay shows it only as two hours

0:16:06.320 --> 0:16:09.080
<v Speaker 1>and some change. So did they shorten it here or

0:16:09.200 --> 0:16:11.720
<v Speaker 1>was it longer in the live coverage on the network.

0:16:11.960 --> 0:16:13.880
<v Speaker 2>Maybe maybe we thought we had another hour and a

0:16:13.880 --> 0:16:15.600
<v Speaker 2>half to go and we said we can't do it.

0:16:16.800 --> 0:16:18.800
<v Speaker 1>Not because we had something else to do or somewhere

0:16:18.800 --> 0:16:22.440
<v Speaker 1>else to be. We just didn't want it. It was

0:16:22.560 --> 0:16:24.720
<v Speaker 1>kind of okay, it just wasn't our.

0:16:24.560 --> 0:16:26.400
<v Speaker 2>Thing horror movie genre.

0:16:35.440 --> 0:16:38.840
<v Speaker 1>Things really turned when her stepped on stage. Anytime I

0:16:38.840 --> 0:16:42.240
<v Speaker 1>see her step on stage with a guitar around her

0:16:42.560 --> 0:16:47.200
<v Speaker 1>and I'm like, oh, so she did the national anthem.

0:16:47.240 --> 0:16:49.880
<v Speaker 1>But you always talk about getting chills. This is when

0:16:49.880 --> 0:16:53.240
<v Speaker 1>I got chilled. She finishes the national anthem, does that

0:16:53.400 --> 0:16:58.360
<v Speaker 1>in the beautiful only her way? Can only her can

0:16:58.400 --> 0:17:02.320
<v Speaker 1>do it? But then she did. There was no announcement,

0:17:02.360 --> 0:17:04.359
<v Speaker 1>there was no nothing. She finished and then she did

0:17:04.400 --> 0:17:08.399
<v Speaker 1>a little riff on the guitar that was unmistakable, and

0:17:08.440 --> 0:17:13.040
<v Speaker 1>it was just a little you know what it is.

0:17:13.119 --> 0:17:15.240
<v Speaker 1>He knew the mission impossible and like, oh, this is

0:17:15.240 --> 0:17:16.840
<v Speaker 1>what they've been talking about. Here he comes.

0:17:17.480 --> 0:17:20.359
<v Speaker 2>It was very cool. Yes, Tom Cruise cut to Live

0:17:20.520 --> 0:17:24.040
<v Speaker 2>on top of the stadium. I mean that was impressive

0:17:24.040 --> 0:17:27.800
<v Speaker 2>and you could see his view before he jumped. Of

0:17:27.800 --> 0:17:31.120
<v Speaker 2>course he was tethered, but wow, what an entrance and

0:17:31.240 --> 0:17:33.520
<v Speaker 2>that takes guts, but this is somebody who obviously knows

0:17:33.520 --> 0:17:35.919
<v Speaker 2>how to do stunts and he did it so well.

0:17:36.200 --> 0:17:41.200
<v Speaker 2>Live Landing cut to her so he could untether himself

0:17:41.240 --> 0:17:44.119
<v Speaker 2>where she was doing this cool more guitar riffs. And

0:17:44.160 --> 0:17:47.000
<v Speaker 2>then his walk down the aisle in the middle of

0:17:47.000 --> 0:17:49.159
<v Speaker 2>that stadium. It got a little uncomfy in one moment.

0:17:49.280 --> 0:17:51.119
<v Speaker 1>Well, I think that was before we get to that

0:17:51.160 --> 0:17:54.919
<v Speaker 1>one moment. Sorry, I think it was great. I think

0:17:55.280 --> 0:17:57.520
<v Speaker 1>that was one of the cool to see their excitement

0:17:57.960 --> 0:18:00.080
<v Speaker 1>at him walking. Then he got to walk through and

0:18:00.160 --> 0:18:02.119
<v Speaker 1>they got it, kind of got to see him and

0:18:02.200 --> 0:18:07.040
<v Speaker 1>all their cameras were out and ready, and that stadium

0:18:07.119 --> 0:18:11.439
<v Speaker 1>full of superstars and incredible athletes who have been the

0:18:11.440 --> 0:18:13.600
<v Speaker 1>focus for two and a half weeks to see them

0:18:13.600 --> 0:18:17.199
<v Speaker 1>get excited about something and somebody else who else. I mean,

0:18:17.240 --> 0:18:20.400
<v Speaker 1>they've been seeing Snoop Dogg all and just the Snoop Olympics.

0:18:20.440 --> 0:18:24.480
<v Speaker 1>If he didn't really is, but he added something that

0:18:25.359 --> 0:18:27.920
<v Speaker 1>it was a touch that only he could do, and

0:18:28.200 --> 0:18:31.359
<v Speaker 1>only he is such a movie star we should really

0:18:31.480 --> 0:18:34.040
<v Speaker 1>relish because I don't know if we're gonna get something

0:18:34.080 --> 0:18:36.840
<v Speaker 1>like this again. He is an absolute movie star and

0:18:36.960 --> 0:18:40.640
<v Speaker 1>world renowned, just in the stunts he does and how

0:18:40.680 --> 0:18:42.840
<v Speaker 1>easy he did just standing up there. I know he's

0:18:42.840 --> 0:18:46.359
<v Speaker 1>done stunts in plenty before, but the nerve what it

0:18:46.440 --> 0:18:48.439
<v Speaker 1>takes to do that is and he did it just

0:18:48.800 --> 0:18:50.000
<v Speaker 1>easy live too.

0:18:50.160 --> 0:18:52.359
<v Speaker 2>There were no do overs, that wasn't pretaped. He did

0:18:52.440 --> 0:18:54.600
<v Speaker 2>it live. It was remarkable. Yeah, it was very cool.

0:18:54.600 --> 0:18:56.520
<v Speaker 2>And there was a woman who really loved Tom cruise

0:18:56.560 --> 0:18:59.359
<v Speaker 2>too that I had to go back and watch it twice.

0:18:59.400 --> 0:19:02.120
<v Speaker 2>But yeah, she just she got a little too friendly,

0:19:03.200 --> 0:19:05.520
<v Speaker 2>she got a little too excited, and she she kissed

0:19:05.560 --> 0:19:09.120
<v Speaker 2>him like she grabbed him and kissed him aggressively while

0:19:09.160 --> 0:19:10.800
<v Speaker 2>taking a picture of video of it. So I'm sure

0:19:10.840 --> 0:19:13.080
<v Speaker 2>it's on social media from her vantage point at some

0:19:13.720 --> 0:19:17.760
<v Speaker 2>at some point, but a lot of people making some

0:19:17.840 --> 0:19:20.240
<v Speaker 2>reference to that online saying, hey, if it were reversed,

0:19:20.240 --> 0:19:21.119
<v Speaker 2>you were saying right that.

0:19:21.359 --> 0:19:24.920
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, I looked at him when I first saw it

0:19:25.600 --> 0:19:28.040
<v Speaker 1>I honestly just looked and go, geez lady. Yeah, there's

0:19:28.119 --> 0:19:28.840
<v Speaker 1>kind of that reaction.

0:19:29.000 --> 0:19:30.399
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, it was rude. It was rude.

0:19:30.520 --> 0:19:32.920
<v Speaker 1>I think so. But when you stopped for a moment ago, wow,

0:19:33.000 --> 0:19:36.040
<v Speaker 1>reverse the roles for a second. And if that, I said, Well,

0:19:36.080 --> 0:19:39.440
<v Speaker 1>if Emily Blunt was walking through there with whatever woman

0:19:39.560 --> 0:19:42.400
<v Speaker 1>was walking through there and some six or five athlete

0:19:42.480 --> 0:19:47.080
<v Speaker 1>from whatever country grabbed and kissed her aggressively.

0:19:46.640 --> 0:19:48.359
<v Speaker 2>And he would have been pounded on, he would have

0:19:48.400 --> 0:19:49.640
<v Speaker 2>been jumped on by security.

0:19:49.840 --> 0:19:51.800
<v Speaker 1>What do we do? I don't know. It was a moment.

0:19:51.840 --> 0:19:54.320
<v Speaker 1>She was excited, and we're It's just funny how we're

0:19:54.359 --> 0:19:56.359
<v Speaker 1>we can be kind of accepting and dismissive of it

0:19:56.400 --> 0:19:59.320
<v Speaker 1>because ah lady got excited, Tom Cruise, she's so excited.

0:20:00.600 --> 0:20:03.280
<v Speaker 1>Is that okay? Maybe it is okay, Maybe we do it.

0:20:03.400 --> 0:20:05.520
<v Speaker 2>I don't think you should touch people who you don't

0:20:05.560 --> 0:20:08.800
<v Speaker 2>know without asking first. That's just that's my personal opinion.

0:20:08.840 --> 0:20:12.360
<v Speaker 2>And I don't think you should ever kiss somebody who

0:20:13.320 --> 0:20:16.720
<v Speaker 2>isn't at least you know, willing to accept it or

0:20:16.760 --> 0:20:19.680
<v Speaker 2>knows it's coming. I don't think that's right at all.

0:20:20.320 --> 0:20:23.199
<v Speaker 2>I think there's no gray area here. She should not

0:20:23.359 --> 0:20:25.720
<v Speaker 2>have done that. It was rude and it was inappropriate.

0:20:25.800 --> 0:20:28.240
<v Speaker 1>Oh got what was the guy the soccer thing that

0:20:28.320 --> 0:20:31.040
<v Speaker 1>came up from? Uh? He kissed after the World Cup.

0:20:31.080 --> 0:20:33.439
<v Speaker 1>He grabbed one of the players and kissed her and

0:20:33.480 --> 0:20:35.919
<v Speaker 1>it became a huge I think he was fired. I

0:20:35.960 --> 0:20:38.600
<v Speaker 1>think I'm saying it was. It seemed to be an

0:20:38.680 --> 0:20:39.960
<v Speaker 1>unwelcome kiss.

0:20:40.160 --> 0:20:42.639
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, Oh, it was definitely an unwelcome kiss. You can

0:20:42.640 --> 0:20:44.360
<v Speaker 2>see his face. He was shocked. I mean, look, he's

0:20:44.400 --> 0:20:46.960
<v Speaker 2>trying to he's performing in front of the world right now.

0:20:47.000 --> 0:20:49.840
<v Speaker 2>He just did something unthinkable to most of us. And

0:20:49.880 --> 0:20:51.679
<v Speaker 2>you've got you've got to deal with some woman. I mean,

0:20:51.680 --> 0:20:53.600
<v Speaker 2>I felt for him in that moment. That's not a

0:20:53.600 --> 0:20:54.480
<v Speaker 2>comfortable place to be in.

0:20:54.520 --> 0:20:55.800
<v Speaker 1>Pretty sure, it's probably the first time.

0:20:57.119 --> 0:20:59.280
<v Speaker 2>I'm sure if anyone is used to that, it's him.

0:20:59.320 --> 0:21:01.879
<v Speaker 2>But it's still we should be pointed out that is

0:21:02.080 --> 0:21:06.840
<v Speaker 2>in appropriate. But it was just a blip. The rest

0:21:06.880 --> 0:21:08.800
<v Speaker 2>of it was, oh, just flawless. And I love that

0:21:09.040 --> 0:21:12.240
<v Speaker 2>they did pretape him riding the motorcycle through Paris getting

0:21:12.280 --> 0:21:14.679
<v Speaker 2>on a It looked like a C seventeen cargo plane.

0:21:15.680 --> 0:21:20.480
<v Speaker 1>Now, if you had just picked up watching at the

0:21:20.680 --> 0:21:24.359
<v Speaker 1>moment he got the bike onto the streets of Paris.

0:21:24.400 --> 0:21:27.959
<v Speaker 1>The motorcycle you're watching the Mission Impossible movie, Yeah, exactly,

0:21:27.960 --> 0:21:30.800
<v Speaker 1>you wouldn't. You would not even know. It looked exactly

0:21:30.880 --> 0:21:32.680
<v Speaker 1>like we have seen him time and time again.

0:21:32.800 --> 0:21:34.080
<v Speaker 2>What do you think of his motorcycle?

0:21:34.480 --> 0:21:35.920
<v Speaker 1>I was trying to want to go back and figure

0:21:35.920 --> 0:21:37.520
<v Speaker 1>out which what it was. I wanted to see what

0:21:37.560 --> 0:21:39.359
<v Speaker 1>type it was. He rides a lot of BMW's in

0:21:39.400 --> 0:21:42.280
<v Speaker 1>his movies, I think. Anyway, Sorry I didn't. I actually

0:21:42.320 --> 0:21:43.800
<v Speaker 1>meant to go do that just for me, not for

0:21:43.880 --> 0:21:44.200
<v Speaker 1>the story.

0:21:45.080 --> 0:21:47.240
<v Speaker 2>So anyway, we see him, and this is part of tradition.

0:21:47.280 --> 0:21:49.720
<v Speaker 2>The host city hands over the Olympic flag to the

0:21:49.760 --> 0:21:52.840
<v Speaker 2>next host city. So the flag ends up on the

0:21:52.880 --> 0:21:56.160
<v Speaker 2>beach in La there in Santa Monica, and that's when

0:21:56.200 --> 0:21:59.120
<v Speaker 2>we got to see the red Hot Chili Pepper's snoop

0:21:59.359 --> 0:22:02.679
<v Speaker 2>made it back to California. This was all pre taped

0:22:03.320 --> 0:22:07.040
<v Speaker 2>Doctor Dre, Billy Eilish, they all performed. It was really

0:22:07.080 --> 0:22:10.040
<v Speaker 2>fun and wow, I was California dreaming there at that

0:22:10.240 --> 0:22:11.480
<v Speaker 2>beach looked amazing.

0:22:13.280 --> 0:22:15.720
<v Speaker 1>Is flee ever gonna calm down from there? At how

0:22:15.800 --> 0:22:19.200
<v Speaker 1>Chili Peppers He's been the same dude jumping around crazy

0:22:19.280 --> 0:22:22.320
<v Speaker 1>on the stage his entire career. He's like sixty two,

0:22:22.400 --> 0:22:23.520
<v Speaker 1>now sixty one.

0:22:23.359 --> 0:22:26.360
<v Speaker 2>He looked, and really, yeah he looked amazing.

0:22:26.040 --> 0:22:28.720
<v Speaker 1>Shut off, still a California dude doing his thing. So

0:22:29.640 --> 0:22:32.400
<v Speaker 1>much props to him. I was, I couldn't wait. These

0:22:32.400 --> 0:22:35.080
<v Speaker 1>two songs that Snoop did, did drop it like it said, Yeah,

0:22:35.119 --> 0:22:37.639
<v Speaker 1>that was great. I was the one he did with

0:22:37.720 --> 0:22:40.480
<v Speaker 1>Dre Doctor Dre. I can't remember, but I was listening

0:22:40.520 --> 0:22:42.440
<v Speaker 1>to the songs and like, how was he going to

0:22:42.520 --> 0:22:44.240
<v Speaker 1>make this Olympics friendly? Right?

0:22:44.280 --> 0:22:46.520
<v Speaker 2>Because you know what the real lyrics are.

0:22:46.800 --> 0:22:49.399
<v Speaker 1>Some of the lyrics are, but they obviously pulled it

0:22:49.440 --> 0:22:52.159
<v Speaker 1>off just fine. And as much as we talk about

0:22:52.440 --> 0:22:56.919
<v Speaker 1>the uniforms, the closing ceremony uniforms for the athletes, whoever

0:22:57.119 --> 0:23:01.359
<v Speaker 1>the hell was dressing Snoop for the Olympics.

0:23:01.000 --> 0:23:04.520
<v Speaker 2>Amazing, needs to be dressing the Olympic team. His suit

0:23:04.640 --> 0:23:08.240
<v Speaker 2>yesterday on the beach amazing. We didn't talk about this,

0:23:08.280 --> 0:23:09.640
<v Speaker 2>but I thought the same thing. I was, like, Damn,

0:23:09.680 --> 0:23:10.320
<v Speaker 2>he looks good.

0:23:10.720 --> 0:23:13.600
<v Speaker 1>They all have just the right amount of USA or

0:23:13.640 --> 0:23:17.520
<v Speaker 1>Team USA red white and blue detail. That dude was.

0:23:17.760 --> 0:23:22.520
<v Speaker 1>I loved everything was so call that person up. If

0:23:22.560 --> 0:23:23.040
<v Speaker 1>you want.

0:23:24.359 --> 0:23:28.720
<v Speaker 2>Uniform snoops, stylist. Oh and then you you pointed out,

0:23:28.760 --> 0:23:30.439
<v Speaker 2>you said you have to watch this because you had

0:23:30.440 --> 0:23:32.240
<v Speaker 2>already seen it by the time I came out. But

0:23:32.320 --> 0:23:36.760
<v Speaker 2>the French singer who performed My Way by Frank Sinatra, WHOA.

0:23:37.680 --> 0:23:41.280
<v Speaker 2>That was spectacular and in a really cool nod to America.

0:23:41.480 --> 0:23:43.560
<v Speaker 2>I just thought it was so well done, and she was.

0:23:43.560 --> 0:23:46.639
<v Speaker 2>She performed it so beautifully. It was remarkable. It's one

0:23:46.680 --> 0:23:48.960
<v Speaker 2>of the high points for me. Last lot of the

0:23:48.960 --> 0:23:50.440
<v Speaker 2>opening closing ceremony.

0:23:50.520 --> 0:23:53.840
<v Speaker 1>We get those, you have those stirring moments sometimes this

0:23:54.040 --> 0:23:56.560
<v Speaker 1>was one of them. This is an artist I don't

0:23:56.560 --> 0:23:59.480
<v Speaker 1>think you were familiar with that. That wasn't either. Result

0:23:59.640 --> 0:24:03.800
<v Speaker 1>is ourn But she's standing there by herself on the

0:24:03.840 --> 0:24:06.360
<v Speaker 1>stage and all black, and it looks almost like you're

0:24:06.400 --> 0:24:08.959
<v Speaker 1>in an opera in some way the way she's presenting herself.

0:24:09.000 --> 0:24:11.720
<v Speaker 1>But she sounds just amazing. But the song, to see

0:24:11.720 --> 0:24:20.240
<v Speaker 1>a French artist performing an American classic that actually comes

0:24:20.359 --> 0:24:23.520
<v Speaker 1>from a French song, I didn't know that, and I

0:24:23.560 --> 0:24:26.160
<v Speaker 1>think most folks don't and I didn't realize that either.

0:24:26.280 --> 0:24:31.439
<v Speaker 1>But Calm Labitude is the name of the song and

0:24:31.520 --> 0:24:34.800
<v Speaker 1>it has the same melody, and they took it from

0:24:34.960 --> 0:24:39.359
<v Speaker 1>that French song and made in Frank Sinatra made my Way.

0:24:39.400 --> 0:24:43.040
<v Speaker 1>But the French song is about a couple falling out

0:24:43.040 --> 0:24:47.240
<v Speaker 1>of love. Oh wow, and calm latitude is sentially attitude

0:24:47.240 --> 0:24:51.000
<v Speaker 1>means like as usual, and he's going through the sin

0:24:51.440 --> 0:24:53.520
<v Speaker 1>this whole story talking about, yeah, try to get you

0:24:53.520 --> 0:24:55.359
<v Speaker 1>out of bed, you didn't want to hang out? Same

0:24:55.400 --> 0:24:58.600
<v Speaker 1>as usual that it goes through, It repeats all these

0:24:58.640 --> 0:25:01.879
<v Speaker 1>little monotonous things. Er usual, very usual. That's what the

0:25:01.960 --> 0:25:02.480
<v Speaker 1>song is.

0:25:02.560 --> 0:25:05.080
<v Speaker 2>Wow, I'm wondering how that turned into I did it

0:25:05.160 --> 0:25:05.600
<v Speaker 2>My Way.

0:25:05.800 --> 0:25:08.280
<v Speaker 1>Once you hear the song and the melody done.

0:25:09.240 --> 0:25:11.760
<v Speaker 2>So it's the same melody, just completely different lyrics and

0:25:11.800 --> 0:25:16.600
<v Speaker 2>a very different sentiment. It's not like there you go

0:25:16.640 --> 0:25:19.280
<v Speaker 2>again versus I'm gonna take a lead.

0:25:19.359 --> 0:25:20.440
<v Speaker 1>That's really funny.

0:25:20.400 --> 0:25:22.800
<v Speaker 2>So okay, thank you for sharing that fun fact. I

0:25:22.800 --> 0:25:23.920
<v Speaker 2>did not know any of that.

0:25:24.040 --> 0:25:26.240
<v Speaker 1>But she crushed it yesterday and it makes me really

0:25:26.240 --> 0:25:29.000
<v Speaker 1>interested in her. She was pretty spectaculous, she really was.

0:25:29.080 --> 0:25:31.320
<v Speaker 1>You're a ceremony and it's and it's done.

0:25:31.320 --> 0:25:34.480
<v Speaker 2>We'll see you l Yeah. So the athletes, by the way,

0:25:34.600 --> 0:25:38.720
<v Speaker 2>who are bringing home medals to their home countries some athletes.

0:25:38.720 --> 0:25:41.560
<v Speaker 2>Of those athletes are getting more than their metal, they're

0:25:41.560 --> 0:25:44.359
<v Speaker 2>actually getting paid for their medals. I don't know that

0:25:44.400 --> 0:25:49.159
<v Speaker 2>I even realize this, but the US we are on

0:25:49.240 --> 0:25:52.120
<v Speaker 2>the lower end of how much we pay our athletes.

0:25:52.160 --> 0:25:53.520
<v Speaker 2>But in case you were wondering, if you win a

0:25:53.600 --> 0:25:56.520
<v Speaker 2>gold and you're US and you're a US athlete, thirty

0:25:56.560 --> 0:26:00.800
<v Speaker 2>seven thousand, five hundred dollars is waiting for you. Twenty

0:26:00.800 --> 0:26:04.919
<v Speaker 2>two five hundred and silver, sorry, and bronze it's a

0:26:04.960 --> 0:26:09.240
<v Speaker 2>fifteen thousand. But we're the sixth least generous country when

0:26:09.240 --> 0:26:12.240
<v Speaker 2>it comes to monetary rewards for our metal winning athletes.

0:26:12.240 --> 0:26:14.280
<v Speaker 2>But you want to know who tops the list who

0:26:14.280 --> 0:26:17.600
<v Speaker 2>financially incentivizes their athletes doing medals the most?

0:26:19.080 --> 0:26:20.440
<v Speaker 1>Dam Hong Kong.

0:26:21.080 --> 0:26:24.800
<v Speaker 2>They offer their athletes seven hundred and fifty thousand US

0:26:24.920 --> 0:26:26.840
<v Speaker 2>dollars the equivalent, and.

0:26:27.040 --> 0:26:28.800
<v Speaker 1>They had is that gold.

0:26:28.920 --> 0:26:31.280
<v Speaker 2>That's gold, and then like it's still pretty high for

0:26:31.320 --> 0:26:34.480
<v Speaker 2>silver and bronze, but that's where they start at. And yeah,

0:26:34.600 --> 0:26:37.880
<v Speaker 2>that's an incentive incentivizing number. There.

0:26:38.080 --> 0:26:41.280
<v Speaker 1>You can make that a career decision. Move to Hong Kong,

0:26:41.720 --> 0:26:44.879
<v Speaker 1>get citizenship, find something you can be good at in

0:26:44.880 --> 0:26:48.080
<v Speaker 1>the Olympics the best at go as a representative Hong Kong.

0:26:48.160 --> 0:26:51.480
<v Speaker 1>That sounds so easy. That's I mean, that's dah do

0:26:51.600 --> 0:26:55.960
<v Speaker 1>you have? That's a pretty that's not the worst idea.

0:26:56.040 --> 0:26:56.639
<v Speaker 2>What would you do?

0:26:57.359 --> 0:26:58.600
<v Speaker 1>And why could I?

0:26:58.680 --> 0:26:59.879
<v Speaker 2>It was what could you win golden?

0:27:00.160 --> 0:27:03.320
<v Speaker 1>It would have to be It wouldn't be anything athletic.

0:27:03.440 --> 0:27:05.280
<v Speaker 1>At this point, I'm forty six yeers. I'm not going

0:27:05.359 --> 0:27:08.720
<v Speaker 1>to outdo some twenty one year old park skateboarding. No,

0:27:09.119 --> 0:27:11.560
<v Speaker 1>those dudes of fourteen, I'm certainly not going to do.

0:27:11.640 --> 0:27:14.440
<v Speaker 1>It would have to be like air pistol or archery,

0:27:15.920 --> 0:27:16.720
<v Speaker 1>something like.

0:27:16.640 --> 0:27:20.960
<v Speaker 2>That, something that required simply, like I guess, like hand

0:27:21.040 --> 0:27:22.200
<v Speaker 2>eye coordination.

0:27:21.920 --> 0:27:26.240
<v Speaker 1>Yes, and not to out jump or have more strengthen

0:27:26.720 --> 0:27:27.120
<v Speaker 1>that's fair.

0:27:27.320 --> 0:27:30.080
<v Speaker 2>Singapore right behind Hong Kong at seven hundred thousand for

0:27:30.119 --> 0:27:33.760
<v Speaker 2>gold medals. Taiwan gives six hundred thousand for a gold

0:27:34.040 --> 0:27:36.399
<v Speaker 2>and a distant next from what I could find with

0:27:36.480 --> 0:27:39.520
<v Speaker 2>Serbia at two hundred and fourteen thousand, nine hundred for

0:27:39.560 --> 0:27:43.919
<v Speaker 2>gold Bottom three. Canada only gives fourteen thousand, six hundred

0:27:43.920 --> 0:27:47.960
<v Speaker 2>and eight dollars. Denmark only gives fourteen thousand, four hundred

0:27:48.320 --> 0:27:52.720
<v Speaker 2>and the least monetarily awarded athletes. Australia, they only give

0:27:52.800 --> 0:27:55.880
<v Speaker 2>thirteen thousand, three hundred and forty for a gold. However,

0:27:56.119 --> 0:27:56.840
<v Speaker 2>it could be worse.

0:27:57.960 --> 0:28:02.800
<v Speaker 1>It could you could get nothing. That's the option. But

0:28:03.040 --> 0:28:05.680
<v Speaker 1>do you think that's the case it? Do you think

0:28:05.760 --> 0:28:08.439
<v Speaker 1>we should? I think they have upped it. I know

0:28:08.480 --> 0:28:11.320
<v Speaker 1>you've done enough. I think it was twenty five, fifteen

0:28:11.359 --> 0:28:13.399
<v Speaker 1>and ten for a while. Yeah, for the AA, they

0:28:13.400 --> 0:28:15.639
<v Speaker 1>have uped it. They have uped it, so that's something.

0:28:15.760 --> 0:28:18.560
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, they go with inflation. But if you're an athlete

0:28:18.640 --> 0:28:23.600
<v Speaker 2>in the UK, Norway, Sweden, you your medal is reward enough,

0:28:23.840 --> 0:28:26.199
<v Speaker 2>and that's what they believe. Also, you have to think

0:28:26.240 --> 0:28:29.240
<v Speaker 2>about how many athletes each of these countries are assuming

0:28:29.240 --> 0:28:30.879
<v Speaker 2>are going to medal. So the United States has a

0:28:30.920 --> 0:28:34.160
<v Speaker 2>lot of medals to pay out. Hong Kong only had three.

0:28:34.720 --> 0:28:37.840
<v Speaker 2>I say only, but you know, it does weigh into

0:28:38.040 --> 0:28:40.160
<v Speaker 2>how much a country is willing to give based on

0:28:40.200 --> 0:28:43.600
<v Speaker 2>how many athletes actually medal, So it kind of makes sense.

0:28:44.320 --> 0:28:45.560
<v Speaker 1>Hong Kong had three gold medals.

0:28:45.600 --> 0:28:47.680
<v Speaker 2>Well no, no, no, not three gold medals. I think

0:28:47.680 --> 0:28:49.920
<v Speaker 2>they had a gold and two bronze is what I

0:28:49.960 --> 0:28:52.320
<v Speaker 2>look so, but still they're paying out, you know, pretty

0:28:52.360 --> 0:28:54.480
<v Speaker 2>hefty sums. But they only had to make three payouts.

0:28:54.600 --> 0:28:57.000
<v Speaker 1>Okay, So I just did the math quickly while we

0:28:57.000 --> 0:28:59.920
<v Speaker 1>were talking. Forty gold medals for the US at thirty

0:28:59.880 --> 0:29:02.520
<v Speaker 1>seven one hundred piece, that's one and a half million dollars.

0:29:02.640 --> 0:29:05.640
<v Speaker 2>Wow, did you just do that matter the poculator?

0:29:05.680 --> 0:29:11.120
<v Speaker 1>Okay, I do, no, but that's all That's.

0:29:10.840 --> 0:29:12.720
<v Speaker 2>A lot, Yeah it is.

0:29:12.800 --> 0:29:14.480
<v Speaker 1>So that's that. That makes sense.

0:29:14.680 --> 0:29:18.120
<v Speaker 2>That makes sense, all right. So we had some fun

0:29:18.600 --> 0:29:22.160
<v Speaker 2>going through because we have again, I have never watched

0:29:22.480 --> 0:29:25.800
<v Speaker 2>so many Olympic events in my life, and so we

0:29:25.840 --> 0:29:28.920
<v Speaker 2>wanted to kind of go through a superlative list, the best,

0:29:28.920 --> 0:29:31.240
<v Speaker 2>the favorite, YadA, YadA, YadA. So we're gonna kind of

0:29:31.360 --> 0:29:33.560
<v Speaker 2>rattle off what some of our moments are and maybe

0:29:33.600 --> 0:29:36.160
<v Speaker 2>worthy to even look back and watch. But what was

0:29:36.200 --> 0:29:37.440
<v Speaker 2>your favorite Olympic moment?

0:29:37.720 --> 0:29:40.480
<v Speaker 1>Uh, Shakerrie stare at the four while one hundred relay finish.

0:29:40.600 --> 0:29:42.080
<v Speaker 2>I knew you were gonna say that, so I didn't

0:29:42.120 --> 0:29:44.920
<v Speaker 2>take it for me. Stephen Netterosik delivering on the pommel

0:29:44.920 --> 0:29:47.160
<v Speaker 2>horse when all like it was all on him he

0:29:47.240 --> 0:29:49.920
<v Speaker 2>had to get a score for his team to win

0:29:50.320 --> 0:29:52.960
<v Speaker 2>a bronze medal. And he did it, and that was remarkable.

0:29:53.040 --> 0:29:55.160
<v Speaker 1>It's the Olympic moment you'd like to forget the.

0:29:55.200 --> 0:29:58.120
<v Speaker 2>Hate surrounding Amani Khalif I. I really that was for

0:29:58.240 --> 0:30:01.040
<v Speaker 2>me the worst just to see that and to read

0:30:01.080 --> 0:30:03.640
<v Speaker 2>about it. It for me, that just was so icky.

0:30:03.800 --> 0:30:04.200
<v Speaker 2>How about you.

0:30:04.280 --> 0:30:06.680
<v Speaker 1>Olympic moment I'd like to forget is Frederick Richard falling

0:30:06.680 --> 0:30:08.760
<v Speaker 1>on the pommel horse in the all around. It was

0:30:08.760 --> 0:30:11.160
<v Speaker 1>his first event. He was our great hope and we

0:30:11.160 --> 0:30:16.600
<v Speaker 1>were very excited and in seconds his day was done. Yeah,

0:30:16.640 --> 0:30:18.920
<v Speaker 1>and that we were staying, We were planning a whole

0:30:19.000 --> 0:30:20.600
<v Speaker 1>day and we all were just gutted.

0:30:20.680 --> 0:30:21.240
<v Speaker 2>It was gutting.

0:30:21.400 --> 0:30:26.080
<v Speaker 1>It sucked so that one hurt. Favorite sport to watch, uh,

0:30:26.440 --> 0:30:29.360
<v Speaker 1>drack and field. Just there's just so many options that

0:30:29.400 --> 0:30:34.040
<v Speaker 1>we even got into the hammer throw him sue. So

0:30:34.160 --> 0:30:35.640
<v Speaker 1>everything there was always fun yours.

0:30:36.000 --> 0:30:39.520
<v Speaker 2>It's just there's no competition. It's women's gymnastics. It's my favorite.

0:30:39.600 --> 0:30:41.440
<v Speaker 1>You don't want problem is with that? I thought about that.

0:30:41.880 --> 0:30:43.520
<v Speaker 1>I don't like watching gymnastics.

0:30:43.600 --> 0:30:45.960
<v Speaker 2>You're stressful, you give the beam, you hate the beam.

0:30:46.120 --> 0:30:48.320
<v Speaker 2>That's your least favorite sports or event to watch.

0:30:48.400 --> 0:30:51.200
<v Speaker 1>I hate it. And so that's why we watched it

0:30:51.240 --> 0:30:52.920
<v Speaker 1>more than anything, and I was into it more than anything.

0:30:53.280 --> 0:30:55.000
<v Speaker 1>I'm uncomfortable watch.

0:30:54.920 --> 0:31:06.400
<v Speaker 2>I can get I get that favorite American athlete.

0:31:06.640 --> 0:31:09.480
<v Speaker 1>I cannot believe this was the case, but Steph Curry.

0:31:09.760 --> 0:31:12.479
<v Speaker 1>And it was Steph because he had a slow start

0:31:12.960 --> 0:31:15.280
<v Speaker 1>to the Olympics. People were questioning him and then he

0:31:15.360 --> 0:31:18.520
<v Speaker 1>completely bailed out the US team in those last two

0:31:18.560 --> 0:31:22.320
<v Speaker 1>games and was the Steph I have seen live for

0:31:22.640 --> 0:31:25.760
<v Speaker 1>years and covering all those NBA finals. Let him finally

0:31:25.760 --> 0:31:28.520
<v Speaker 1>have his first Olympics and it have the moment. I

0:31:28.560 --> 0:31:30.440
<v Speaker 1>was very, very happy to see Steph do his thing.

0:31:31.120 --> 0:31:32.520
<v Speaker 1>Yours your favorite American at.

0:31:32.600 --> 0:31:36.560
<v Speaker 2>Simone Biles and obviously she's you know, the goat. But

0:31:36.640 --> 0:31:39.760
<v Speaker 2>for me, what I was able to actually be in

0:31:39.880 --> 0:31:44.720
<v Speaker 2>the arena in Tokyo and I saw her mental distress,

0:31:45.200 --> 0:31:48.000
<v Speaker 2>the twisties and not being able to compete, and to me,

0:31:48.720 --> 0:31:50.560
<v Speaker 2>to be at that level and to be that low

0:31:50.600 --> 0:31:53.440
<v Speaker 2>where you have to drop out of events because you

0:31:53.480 --> 0:31:57.360
<v Speaker 2>can't you can't mentally be there. To see what she

0:31:57.480 --> 0:32:00.920
<v Speaker 2>came back and did at the age she's at, I

0:32:01.080 --> 0:32:03.040
<v Speaker 2>was blown away because I think we all take for

0:32:03.080 --> 0:32:05.920
<v Speaker 2>granted like, oh, look, she can do it. She's the best.

0:32:06.120 --> 0:32:09.640
<v Speaker 2>It's no sweat. What she went through in Tokyo proves

0:32:09.640 --> 0:32:11.320
<v Speaker 2>that it is so much more than that, and for

0:32:11.360 --> 0:32:13.720
<v Speaker 2>her to come back from that was remarkable to me.

0:32:14.000 --> 0:32:16.720
<v Speaker 1>What was your favorite non USA athlete that you want?

0:32:17.280 --> 0:32:21.040
<v Speaker 2>It switched. It was going to be Brazil's Rebecca Andraje

0:32:21.120 --> 0:32:22.960
<v Speaker 2>because I just think she just brought such a spirit

0:32:23.000 --> 0:32:24.640
<v Speaker 2>and a life and a beauty to the sport. I

0:32:24.680 --> 0:32:27.680
<v Speaker 2>just loved it to gymnastics. But I switched because I

0:32:27.720 --> 0:32:30.680
<v Speaker 2>got to see yesterday the Netherlands Savantasan the winner of

0:32:30.720 --> 0:32:34.560
<v Speaker 2>the women's marathon, and seeing that smile in the closing

0:32:34.600 --> 0:32:36.680
<v Speaker 2>ceremonies and just seeing what she went through with the

0:32:36.680 --> 0:32:39.120
<v Speaker 2>five thousands to the ten thousand and the marathon. For me,

0:32:39.880 --> 0:32:42.640
<v Speaker 2>she is she was my favorite non USA athlete.

0:32:43.240 --> 0:32:45.680
<v Speaker 1>And you know what my favorite non USA athlete is

0:32:45.680 --> 0:32:48.400
<v Speaker 1>going to be in Kwang Hoong Shong of China. That diver,

0:32:48.560 --> 0:32:53.560
<v Speaker 1>the platform diver just dominant in a way. And you

0:32:53.600 --> 0:32:56.040
<v Speaker 1>know I didn't miss her when she was performing seventeen

0:32:56.120 --> 0:32:59.160
<v Speaker 1>years old and has a back to back gold medals

0:32:59.200 --> 0:33:03.240
<v Speaker 1>in the ten mil a ten meter platform is was

0:33:03.800 --> 0:33:06.080
<v Speaker 1>just incredible to watch. So yeah, I love that and

0:33:06.160 --> 0:33:07.960
<v Speaker 1>congrats to China for what they pulled off. I don't

0:33:07.960 --> 0:33:09.280
<v Speaker 1>know if we got to talk about eight for eight,

0:33:09.400 --> 0:33:12.880
<v Speaker 1>first time ever that anyone has swept all goals in

0:33:13.040 --> 0:33:14.240
<v Speaker 1>all eight diving events.

0:33:14.280 --> 0:33:16.640
<v Speaker 2>I was excited for you because I knew you really

0:33:16.640 --> 0:33:17.160
<v Speaker 2>wanted that to.

0:33:17.160 --> 0:33:19.400
<v Speaker 1>Happen, something that impressive. That was really impressive. So what

0:33:19.440 --> 0:33:21.400
<v Speaker 1>was your favorite single event you watched?

0:33:22.320 --> 0:33:25.479
<v Speaker 2>I think it was the men's hundred meter the photo

0:33:25.520 --> 0:33:29.920
<v Speaker 2>finished Noah Lyle's winning after all the hype and I

0:33:30.080 --> 0:33:31.880
<v Speaker 2>that was my favorite. Also. It is just fun because

0:33:31.880 --> 0:33:35.000
<v Speaker 2>it's over in ten seconds and there's so much drama

0:33:35.040 --> 0:33:37.959
<v Speaker 2>leading up to it, and there was so much drama afterwards.

0:33:38.000 --> 0:33:38.960
<v Speaker 2>I loved it. How about you?

0:33:40.120 --> 0:33:43.520
<v Speaker 1>Favorite single event I watched was USA women versus Brazil

0:33:43.600 --> 0:33:46.600
<v Speaker 1>and the Semis and volleyball. This was eight one. I

0:33:46.640 --> 0:33:49.920
<v Speaker 1>didn't It was just intense, you know, I'm excited. I

0:33:50.000 --> 0:33:52.760
<v Speaker 1>was about that match. They ended up falling in the

0:33:53.240 --> 0:33:56.040
<v Speaker 1>gold medal match, but just the back and forth with

0:33:56.120 --> 0:33:58.720
<v Speaker 1>them and the other powerhouse of Brazil was in the

0:33:58.880 --> 0:34:01.640
<v Speaker 1>atmosphere in the arena. All of it came together for

0:34:01.880 --> 0:34:02.640
<v Speaker 1>wonderful watching.

0:34:02.840 --> 0:34:05.920
<v Speaker 2>And to your point, Babe, I watched the volleyball finals,

0:34:05.920 --> 0:34:08.279
<v Speaker 2>and even though they lost and they were swept in

0:34:08.320 --> 0:34:13.240
<v Speaker 2>straight sets, they still never stop smiling and I appreciated that.

0:34:13.239 --> 0:34:13.840
<v Speaker 2>That was awesome.

0:34:13.880 --> 0:34:16.040
<v Speaker 1>You know they have you ever heard of a culture coach?

0:34:16.520 --> 0:34:18.920
<v Speaker 1>They have someone on their team. I'm sorry, I can't

0:34:18.960 --> 0:34:20.359
<v Speaker 1>find her. I won't be able to remember her name

0:34:20.440 --> 0:34:23.520
<v Speaker 1>right now, something called a culture coach that they credit

0:34:23.760 --> 0:34:26.480
<v Speaker 1>with being on their staff and helping them not worry

0:34:26.520 --> 0:34:29.640
<v Speaker 1>about we're two sets down, or this is match point

0:34:29.680 --> 0:34:31.879
<v Speaker 1>for the other team. We got one point right now,

0:34:31.960 --> 0:34:33.320
<v Speaker 1>go out there and have a good time and that

0:34:33.400 --> 0:34:37.000
<v Speaker 1>one point and it's helped them, they say, tremendously. But

0:34:37.000 --> 0:34:38.000
<v Speaker 1>they call it a culture coach.

0:34:38.080 --> 0:34:40.520
<v Speaker 2>I love that. And if you look up the team

0:34:40.880 --> 0:34:45.480
<v Speaker 2>with their silver medal, it looks like they wont I

0:34:45.680 --> 0:34:47.799
<v Speaker 2>was so. I saw that picture and I was like,

0:34:47.960 --> 0:34:50.359
<v Speaker 2>you know what, you were onto something to j because

0:34:50.360 --> 0:34:54.600
<v Speaker 2>you kept talking about their joy and I agree and

0:34:54.680 --> 0:34:57.080
<v Speaker 2>it was awesome and infectious and I'm going to be

0:34:57.080 --> 0:35:02.239
<v Speaker 2>more joyful today thinking of them. Okay, most heartbreaking moment I.

0:35:02.280 --> 0:35:06.680
<v Speaker 1>Have one and a runner up. The most heartbreaking moment

0:35:06.800 --> 0:35:10.680
<v Speaker 1>was probably uh Carolina Moren of Spain and table tennis.

0:35:11.239 --> 0:35:13.040
<v Speaker 1>No excuse me, it's badminton. What was it? Table tennis?

0:35:13.320 --> 0:35:17.440
<v Speaker 1>Was badman badminton. She was the former gold mellist. She

0:35:17.520 --> 0:35:20.520
<v Speaker 1>won the gold medal in Tokyo. But then she's in

0:35:20.560 --> 0:35:25.720
<v Speaker 1>the semis and she's ahead in her match and clearly

0:35:26.000 --> 0:35:29.480
<v Speaker 1>about she's on her way to winning this thing, and

0:35:29.920 --> 0:35:32.520
<v Speaker 1>she goes down with an injury in the semis and

0:35:32.600 --> 0:35:34.920
<v Speaker 1>she knows she's not going to be able to continue,

0:35:35.640 --> 0:35:39.000
<v Speaker 1>and she is down in a fetal position, almost on

0:35:39.040 --> 0:35:42.719
<v Speaker 1>the floor, screaming and crying and trying to be comforted.

0:35:43.360 --> 0:35:47.520
<v Speaker 1>And I mean it is hard to watch, yeah, and

0:35:47.640 --> 0:35:51.319
<v Speaker 1>it is awful to watch. And if you haven't seen it,

0:35:51.360 --> 0:35:54.520
<v Speaker 1>but this is what it is, right the Carolina Moren

0:35:54.560 --> 0:35:57.279
<v Speaker 1>of Spain. Look her up bad midten and how she

0:35:57.320 --> 0:35:59.719
<v Speaker 1>had to go down. It was tough my backup to that.

0:35:59.760 --> 0:36:08.360
<v Speaker 1>And remember this name Uda Abbe Uta ab Abe from Japan.

0:36:08.520 --> 0:36:11.560
<v Speaker 1>She lost in the second round in wrestling. Now she

0:36:11.680 --> 0:36:14.080
<v Speaker 1>was the gold medalist and she was the favorite, but

0:36:14.160 --> 0:36:19.439
<v Speaker 1>after she lost, she was inconsolable. Look up that video

0:36:20.320 --> 0:36:26.279
<v Speaker 1>you'll see what the Olympics means to people. It was awful, awful, awful, heartbreaking.

0:36:26.880 --> 0:36:29.920
<v Speaker 1>I encourage you to look it up. Tears not running

0:36:29.960 --> 0:36:32.640
<v Speaker 1>down your face. Then you ain't you your heart ain't beaten.

0:36:32.800 --> 0:36:35.719
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, it shows you how much it matters, and the

0:36:35.760 --> 0:36:38.120
<v Speaker 2>passion and all of the work. For me the most

0:36:38.160 --> 0:36:41.319
<v Speaker 2>heartbreaking moment. I mean, there were several, unfortunately, to pick from,

0:36:41.400 --> 0:36:43.160
<v Speaker 2>but I went with one of the early ones, Brody

0:36:43.200 --> 0:36:47.000
<v Speaker 2>Malone and the high bar. In qualifying, he felt twice,

0:36:47.360 --> 0:36:51.840
<v Speaker 2>not once, but twice, and that basically ensured that he

0:36:51.920 --> 0:36:54.200
<v Speaker 2>was not going to get to compete in the all

0:36:54.239 --> 0:36:57.160
<v Speaker 2>around finals, which everyone thought he was the favorite. He'd

0:36:57.160 --> 0:36:59.799
<v Speaker 2>come back from a major leg injury to win his

0:36:59.800 --> 0:37:03.520
<v Speaker 2>three US championship just a month earlier, so all the

0:37:03.600 --> 0:37:06.839
<v Speaker 2>expectations and hopes for the men's gymnastics team were on

0:37:06.920 --> 0:37:10.560
<v Speaker 2>Brody Malone's shoulders, so to speak. And when he fell twice,

0:37:11.160 --> 0:37:13.759
<v Speaker 2>it was done. And I just you just to see

0:37:13.800 --> 0:37:15.719
<v Speaker 2>them fall from that high bar, and I mean we

0:37:15.760 --> 0:37:20.839
<v Speaker 2>saw a lot of just unbelievable and devastating falls from

0:37:20.840 --> 0:37:23.319
<v Speaker 2>that apparatus. The beam and the high bar were just

0:37:23.480 --> 0:37:24.520
<v Speaker 2>cruel in gymnastics.

0:37:24.600 --> 0:37:26.319
<v Speaker 1>The bar high bar should be retired like that. One

0:37:26.360 --> 0:37:28.480
<v Speaker 1>should be awful, It should be destroyed.

0:37:28.600 --> 0:37:31.640
<v Speaker 2>I can't believe people weren't permanently injured the way they

0:37:31.640 --> 0:37:33.400
<v Speaker 2>fell off of that. But Brodie Malone, it broke my

0:37:33.440 --> 0:37:34.000
<v Speaker 2>heart for him.

0:37:34.200 --> 0:37:36.360
<v Speaker 1>Well, so it was the most heartwarming moment of the Olympics.

0:37:36.360 --> 0:37:39.680
<v Speaker 2>For you, this is easy for me. Tara Davis Whitehall

0:37:39.800 --> 0:37:43.240
<v Speaker 2>and her paralympian Hubby Hunter Whitehall when she won gold

0:37:43.640 --> 0:37:46.600
<v Speaker 2>and the embrace they had and he just happened to

0:37:46.600 --> 0:37:48.560
<v Speaker 2>be miked, which I loved, and he called He's like,

0:37:48.600 --> 0:37:52.000
<v Speaker 2>you're the Olympic champion, and just to see their love

0:37:52.080 --> 0:37:54.200
<v Speaker 2>and their support for one another. He's going to be

0:37:54.239 --> 0:37:57.520
<v Speaker 2>competing in two weeks as a paralympian in track and field.

0:37:57.560 --> 0:38:00.799
<v Speaker 2>But just I fell in love with their love and

0:38:01.000 --> 0:38:03.440
<v Speaker 2>just their support for one another. And so for me,

0:38:04.160 --> 0:38:07.440
<v Speaker 2>that is when I absolutely had tears in my eyes.

0:38:07.680 --> 0:38:08.200
<v Speaker 2>How about you?

0:38:08.640 --> 0:38:13.799
<v Speaker 1>My favorite heartwarming, heartwarming moment, I am being told by

0:38:13.880 --> 0:38:17.480
<v Speaker 1>a court it did not happen. My favorite moment was

0:38:17.480 --> 0:38:21.160
<v Speaker 1>seeing Jordan Chiles and Simone Biles bow to Rebecca andraje

0:38:21.280 --> 0:38:24.480
<v Speaker 1>on that podium. And there was more to it. So

0:38:24.640 --> 0:38:27.839
<v Speaker 1>I guess the nuance there really is that it's first

0:38:27.880 --> 0:38:31.319
<v Speaker 1>time ever that three black gymnasts occupied a podium at

0:38:31.320 --> 0:38:34.120
<v Speaker 1>the Olympics. But the other part of that and it

0:38:34.120 --> 0:38:36.640
<v Speaker 1>wouldn't have been as sweet if it wasn't Simone Biles.

0:38:37.000 --> 0:38:39.240
<v Speaker 1>As much respect as we all have for Simone Biles.

0:38:39.280 --> 0:38:41.719
<v Speaker 1>To see her giving that type of respect, not just

0:38:41.719 --> 0:38:44.719
<v Speaker 1>the high five and the congratulations, but that type like

0:38:44.800 --> 0:38:47.760
<v Speaker 1>I am honoring you and bowing to you. It put

0:38:48.160 --> 0:38:51.200
<v Speaker 1>Rebecca Andrage on a higher plane for all of us.

0:38:51.200 --> 0:38:53.160
<v Speaker 1>But it told you something about Simone. I told you

0:38:53.200 --> 0:38:57.320
<v Speaker 1>something about friendship, competitor, sportsmanship. It was a beautiful, beautiful

0:38:57.360 --> 0:39:01.080
<v Speaker 1>moment that I'm told for now didn't happened because or

0:39:01.120 --> 0:39:03.719
<v Speaker 1>shouldn't have happened. Yes, right, it's what they're telling us.

0:39:03.719 --> 0:39:05.120
<v Speaker 1>But that was a highlight for me.

0:39:05.280 --> 0:39:07.560
<v Speaker 2>Oh all right. Favorite country uniform. We had a lot

0:39:07.640 --> 0:39:08.960
<v Speaker 2>of conversations about this.

0:39:09.560 --> 0:39:15.239
<v Speaker 1>My favorite country uniform, very specific US women's soccer uniforms

0:39:15.239 --> 0:39:18.160
<v Speaker 1>in the gold medal match. Not I don't think anything

0:39:18.160 --> 0:39:20.800
<v Speaker 1>they were before that would have qualified as my favorite

0:39:20.800 --> 0:39:23.080
<v Speaker 1>of the Olympics. But what they wore in the gold

0:39:23.120 --> 0:39:25.080
<v Speaker 1>medal match loved perfect, all right.

0:39:25.160 --> 0:39:28.359
<v Speaker 2>And my favorite country uniform was the French gymnasts. It

0:39:28.400 --> 0:39:31.480
<v Speaker 2>was a white leotard with a red and blue ribbons

0:39:31.520 --> 0:39:33.680
<v Speaker 2>and some just sparkles all around. It was It was

0:39:33.760 --> 0:39:37.080
<v Speaker 2>classic it was clean and it was just gorgeous. And

0:39:37.120 --> 0:39:39.080
<v Speaker 2>that was in the prelim all rounds when they were

0:39:39.200 --> 0:39:41.239
<v Speaker 2>so because they were eliminated from the finals. So I

0:39:41.400 --> 0:39:43.960
<v Speaker 2>was sad I didn't get to see more of their leotards.

0:39:44.160 --> 0:39:47.000
<v Speaker 2>But I do believe we both agree overall, if you

0:39:47.040 --> 0:39:49.160
<v Speaker 2>had to pick a country that just from all the

0:39:49.320 --> 0:39:53.200
<v Speaker 2>different sporting events had the best uniforms, and you and

0:39:53.239 --> 0:39:57.719
<v Speaker 2>I both agree three to one. Italy loved that turquoise

0:39:58.320 --> 0:40:00.440
<v Speaker 2>and then just a little touch of their flat here

0:40:00.480 --> 0:40:02.080
<v Speaker 2>and there, it was perfect.

0:40:03.200 --> 0:40:07.279
<v Speaker 1>Would you have a well, there was Italian too, but

0:40:07.600 --> 0:40:11.759
<v Speaker 1>an honorable mention the Italian diving uniforms. You remember the women's.

0:40:11.760 --> 0:40:13.799
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, they were really nice. And you know I love

0:40:13.840 --> 0:40:15.720
<v Speaker 2>their hoodies. I love their hoodies.

0:40:16.560 --> 0:40:17.799
<v Speaker 1>You know what my answer is going to be on

0:40:17.800 --> 0:40:20.319
<v Speaker 1>this next one. But what is yours? Your favorite commentator

0:40:20.400 --> 0:40:21.120
<v Speaker 1>during the Olympics.

0:40:21.160 --> 0:40:23.080
<v Speaker 2>Oh so I went to try to find her name

0:40:23.080 --> 0:40:25.520
<v Speaker 2>and I couldn't. But the woman you might know who

0:40:25.520 --> 0:40:28.960
<v Speaker 2>it is who commented or who was commentating on the

0:40:29.000 --> 0:40:32.960
<v Speaker 2>women's marathon. I for selfish reasons. I just was learning

0:40:32.960 --> 0:40:35.520
<v Speaker 2>so much from her about what it takes and what

0:40:35.680 --> 0:40:38.240
<v Speaker 2>makes things better or worse. And just what was happening.

0:40:38.320 --> 0:40:41.439
<v Speaker 2>And I just felt like I learned a lot, even

0:40:41.520 --> 0:40:44.560
<v Speaker 2>as a marathon runner from her about what these women

0:40:44.600 --> 0:40:47.640
<v Speaker 2>were facing and what they do to just I was

0:40:47.640 --> 0:40:49.719
<v Speaker 2>blown away by her. I thought, she just handled that

0:40:49.800 --> 0:40:50.440
<v Speaker 2>so well.

0:40:50.239 --> 0:40:51.920
<v Speaker 1>And so are we going to give her credit? I

0:40:51.960 --> 0:40:53.239
<v Speaker 1>kind of remember who the name was, sir.

0:40:53.360 --> 0:40:56.320
<v Speaker 2>I tried to look, and there's so many commentators I couldn't.

0:40:56.320 --> 0:40:57.960
<v Speaker 2>I didn't want to give credit to the wrong person.

0:40:58.000 --> 0:41:00.520
<v Speaker 2>But I know she's a two time Olympian and she

0:41:00.640 --> 0:41:04.080
<v Speaker 2>won I think Boston and New York, so she knows

0:41:04.120 --> 0:41:06.040
<v Speaker 2>what she's talking about. I just thought she you know,

0:41:06.760 --> 0:41:08.480
<v Speaker 2>it could be boring, you know, two and a half

0:41:08.560 --> 0:41:11.640
<v Speaker 2>hours people just doing the same thing, and somehow she

0:41:11.719 --> 0:41:14.960
<v Speaker 2>made it so interesting and so I learned so much.

0:41:15.480 --> 0:41:19.319
<v Speaker 1>You know, mine was justin spring and he did men's gymnastics.

0:41:19.320 --> 0:41:21.840
<v Speaker 1>He of course was a bronze Mellows two thousand and

0:41:21.880 --> 0:41:25.360
<v Speaker 1>eight with the US men's team. It's current lye Agymnasis

0:41:25.400 --> 0:41:27.200
<v Speaker 1>coach at the University of Alabama.

0:41:28.280 --> 0:41:31.640
<v Speaker 2>Role Tide only say that once now, but I.

0:41:31.760 --> 0:41:34.719
<v Speaker 1>Spoke about him from the very jump. It's listening to

0:41:34.760 --> 0:41:36.640
<v Speaker 1>broad you have to know when to talk when not

0:41:36.680 --> 0:41:38.239
<v Speaker 1>to talk, and when you do talk, you got to

0:41:38.280 --> 0:41:40.920
<v Speaker 1>know what to say, and this guy was He nailed

0:41:40.920 --> 0:41:44.239
<v Speaker 1>it every single time, explaining things that needed to be explained,

0:41:44.239 --> 0:41:46.480
<v Speaker 1>pointing out things that we might have missed. I just

0:41:46.480 --> 0:41:50.480
<v Speaker 1>thought there were several throughout the diving, in swimming.

0:41:50.040 --> 0:41:50.839
<v Speaker 2>There's so many.

0:41:51.920 --> 0:41:52.439
<v Speaker 1>They were good.

0:41:52.520 --> 0:41:55.360
<v Speaker 2>We relied on them to understand and to enjoy a

0:41:55.400 --> 0:41:58.279
<v Speaker 2>sport that maybe we wouldn't have otherwise. And speaking of

0:41:58.320 --> 0:42:00.640
<v Speaker 2>that favorite sport you watch that you don't normally watch,

0:42:01.239 --> 0:42:02.439
<v Speaker 2>that was a tough one.

0:42:02.920 --> 0:42:06.440
<v Speaker 1>I think sport climbing, the speed sport climbing in particular,

0:42:06.480 --> 0:42:07.000
<v Speaker 1>what was yours?

0:42:07.200 --> 0:42:10.279
<v Speaker 2>Uh, the exact same thing, speed climbing is what I

0:42:10.320 --> 0:42:12.640
<v Speaker 2>wrote because I just thought that was so fun and

0:42:12.719 --> 0:42:17.080
<v Speaker 2>so incredible. All right, most impressive athlete.

0:42:18.600 --> 0:42:22.240
<v Speaker 1>You know, I'm going back to my favorite non US athlete,

0:42:22.360 --> 0:42:24.239
<v Speaker 1>Quang Hong Chong. I'm trying to think of somebody that

0:42:24.360 --> 0:42:28.919
<v Speaker 1>was more impressive. I guess because Katie Ledecki, we their

0:42:29.000 --> 0:42:32.200
<v Speaker 1>greatness sometimes and simoan bios their greatness sometimes we take

0:42:32.239 --> 0:42:34.399
<v Speaker 1>for granted because we just assumed, yeah, you're gonna blow

0:42:34.400 --> 0:42:38.160
<v Speaker 1>them out. No no, no, no no. But I guess the dominance

0:42:38.239 --> 0:42:40.680
<v Speaker 1>of Kwang Hong Chong and the age she was in

0:42:40.760 --> 0:42:43.520
<v Speaker 1>a little pressure being put on, seeing how she handled everything.

0:42:43.760 --> 0:42:46.040
<v Speaker 1>She didn't become a kid. Do you remember until she won,

0:42:46.280 --> 0:42:48.680
<v Speaker 1>where she finally smiled and she broke down crying a

0:42:48.719 --> 0:42:51.799
<v Speaker 1>little bit. But I watched her for days and there

0:42:51.920 --> 0:42:57.120
<v Speaker 1>was nothing about her that seemed even slightly emotional or human.

0:42:58.280 --> 0:43:03.840
<v Speaker 2>She was a fierce, determined, focused seventeen so athlete. You

0:43:03.920 --> 0:43:06.000
<v Speaker 2>know what. I again, there were so many to pick from,

0:43:06.000 --> 0:43:08.400
<v Speaker 2>but I chose in kind of a similar vein an

0:43:08.440 --> 0:43:12.000
<v Speaker 2>unexpected impressive athlete, and it was Cole Howker for me,

0:43:12.320 --> 0:43:15.279
<v Speaker 2>shocking everyone in the fifteen hundred meter. He beat Josh Curve,

0:43:15.320 --> 0:43:18.239
<v Speaker 2>great bitten Britain. Sorry, and it's I was going to

0:43:18.280 --> 0:43:20.880
<v Speaker 2>say Jacob ing Brigston, but I heard it was yakub

0:43:21.040 --> 0:43:23.399
<v Speaker 2>Is how they were pronouncing it of Norway. But they

0:43:23.440 --> 0:43:27.000
<v Speaker 2>were by far the only two runners that anybody was

0:43:27.040 --> 0:43:28.759
<v Speaker 2>talking about in the fifteen hundred meter. And I told

0:43:28.760 --> 0:43:30.640
<v Speaker 2>you how much I love the fifteen hundred meter because

0:43:30.680 --> 0:43:36.040
<v Speaker 2>it's the fastest long competition in track and field. But

0:43:36.120 --> 0:43:39.160
<v Speaker 2>he set a new Olympic record. Everybody was blown away,

0:43:39.280 --> 0:43:41.160
<v Speaker 2>and I just thought he was so sweet and so

0:43:41.760 --> 0:43:44.080
<v Speaker 2>calm and collected, and I just was rooting anyway. I

0:43:44.120 --> 0:43:45.880
<v Speaker 2>just thought it was so impressive that he did what

0:43:45.960 --> 0:43:47.600
<v Speaker 2>he did when he needed to do it.

0:43:47.680 --> 0:43:50.920
<v Speaker 1>And now here we are. What sport did you watch

0:43:51.520 --> 0:43:53.120
<v Speaker 1>that you think you'll take up? Now?

0:43:53.200 --> 0:43:55.719
<v Speaker 2>After the we talked about this, I want to go

0:43:55.760 --> 0:43:59.680
<v Speaker 2>to a climbing gym here in New York. And you know,

0:43:59.840 --> 0:44:02.880
<v Speaker 2>I've done a little tiny bit of climbing, but after

0:44:02.920 --> 0:44:05.120
<v Speaker 2>watching them, I just felt like it's something I would

0:44:05.160 --> 0:44:07.920
<v Speaker 2>like to try to do more of. I think it's

0:44:07.920 --> 0:44:10.000
<v Speaker 2>a cool sport that I'd like to get more into.

0:44:10.640 --> 0:44:11.120
<v Speaker 2>How about you.

0:44:11.760 --> 0:44:16.200
<v Speaker 1>Breakdancing clearly is what I'm taking up. I can't wait

0:44:16.239 --> 0:44:19.160
<v Speaker 1>to get out there. I'm gonna do my training in Australia.

0:44:19.360 --> 0:44:21.520
<v Speaker 1>They have a good uh. I think they have a

0:44:21.560 --> 0:44:22.359
<v Speaker 1>good program there.

0:44:22.400 --> 0:44:23.759
<v Speaker 2>What would your break name be?

0:44:24.000 --> 0:44:26.879
<v Speaker 1>I have? You know, I'm gonna find something for you.

0:44:26.960 --> 0:44:28.880
<v Speaker 1>I did a story with a group of break dancers

0:44:29.120 --> 0:44:30.799
<v Speaker 1>years and years ago, and at the end of it

0:44:30.840 --> 0:44:32.719
<v Speaker 1>they gave me a big bee boy name. Okay, they

0:44:32.760 --> 0:44:34.799
<v Speaker 1>got together in a little huddle and came up with

0:44:34.840 --> 0:44:36.440
<v Speaker 1>something that came out and it was all on camera

0:44:36.440 --> 0:44:37.520
<v Speaker 1>and we put it. I think we put it in

0:44:37.560 --> 0:44:39.919
<v Speaker 1>the piece. I can't remember it being that impressive though,

0:44:40.000 --> 0:44:41.640
<v Speaker 1>I don't remember liking it that much.

0:44:41.719 --> 0:44:45.240
<v Speaker 2>Well, you know it could be. I mean, t Junior

0:44:45.280 --> 0:44:51.120
<v Speaker 2>would be the obvious one. But bee boy, uh Lou,

0:44:51.560 --> 0:44:55.279
<v Speaker 2>I don't Ava has Ava has been teasing Hive and

0:44:55.360 --> 0:44:56.080
<v Speaker 2>calling you Tilly.

0:44:56.320 --> 0:45:00.279
<v Speaker 1>That's not good at all. It's not going to catch on. Yeah,

0:45:00.280 --> 0:45:01.719
<v Speaker 1>I don't know. I can't. I'm going to look out

0:45:01.719 --> 0:45:04.840
<v Speaker 1>what they Okay, but no, and as I have my

0:45:05.120 --> 0:45:07.879
<v Speaker 1>climbing shoes in there, okay, it's made me now want

0:45:07.880 --> 0:45:10.000
<v Speaker 1>to get back into climb. Not to speed climb obviously,

0:45:10.080 --> 0:45:13.000
<v Speaker 1>but the climbing and climb. Yeah, so I used to

0:45:13.000 --> 0:45:15.960
<v Speaker 1>do it a decent amount, but yeah, it does make me.

0:45:15.880 --> 0:45:16.920
<v Speaker 2>Want let's do it together.

0:45:18.880 --> 0:45:21.680
<v Speaker 1>So, folks, we have had a blast and we can't

0:45:21.680 --> 0:45:25.479
<v Speaker 1>say it enough. Congrats to NBC for what you did.

0:45:25.560 --> 0:45:30.120
<v Speaker 1>This was the best Olympic watching experience I have ever had.

0:45:32.000 --> 0:45:36.040
<v Speaker 1>Been great. So I hate to see it go, but

0:45:36.239 --> 0:45:38.880
<v Speaker 1>let's get back into And it was a nice break

0:45:39.400 --> 0:45:43.720
<v Speaker 1>from politics. It was a nice break from I guess

0:45:43.760 --> 0:45:45.360
<v Speaker 1>fighting about a lot of things and being on the

0:45:45.400 --> 0:45:47.680
<v Speaker 1>same team by rooting for all of our athletes at

0:45:47.719 --> 0:45:50.799
<v Speaker 1>least we were together for that. I dread we're having

0:45:50.800 --> 0:45:51.480
<v Speaker 1>to go back.

0:45:51.320 --> 0:45:54.000
<v Speaker 2>To I know, I was just thinking about that. We've

0:45:54.040 --> 0:45:56.480
<v Speaker 2>had so much fun. I mean, the only time I

0:45:56.480 --> 0:45:59.360
<v Speaker 2>haven't enjoyed the Olympics is when politics have gotten involved

0:45:59.400 --> 0:46:02.240
<v Speaker 2>in terms of just you know, the amon Ka Lief

0:46:02.239 --> 0:46:05.080
<v Speaker 2>and the Jordan Gilds. Those are my least favorite moments

0:46:05.080 --> 0:46:09.480
<v Speaker 2>because politics got involved, because you know, when it's just

0:46:09.520 --> 0:46:12.920
<v Speaker 2>about the sports and about competition. Yeah, and rooting for

0:46:13.400 --> 0:46:17.120
<v Speaker 2>not even just your home country, but for athletes from

0:46:17.160 --> 0:46:19.920
<v Speaker 2>all countries. It's just been a unifying experience and a

0:46:19.920 --> 0:46:21.879
<v Speaker 2>fun moment. And I'm going to miss it. I am.
