Speaker 5: When I was a kid, I was the most obsessive

11
00:01:23,480 --> 00:01:27,560
Speaker 5: sports fan you would meet. And if you might have

12
00:01:27,640 --> 00:01:33,160
Speaker 5: been that way, particularly young boys, you were a young man,

13
00:01:33,240 --> 00:01:41,800
Speaker 5: I would wash cars and lawns for spending money for

14
00:01:42,000 --> 00:01:43,800
Speaker 5: the I didn't have anything to spend it on. We

15
00:01:43,800 --> 00:01:45,600
Speaker 5: were out in the country. There wasn't anything out there.

16
00:01:45,640 --> 00:01:47,960
Speaker 5: There was nothing on the line you could buy. You

17
00:01:47,960 --> 00:01:50,920
Speaker 5: couldn't get anywhere to buy anything. So money was a

18
00:01:51,000 --> 00:01:54,640
Speaker 5: very little value, except for the fact that I could

19
00:01:54,720 --> 00:01:58,640
Speaker 5: subscribe to Sports Illustrated and the Sporting News. Sporting News

20
00:01:58,680 --> 00:02:03,920
Speaker 5: being superior because you would get the box scores, you

21
00:02:04,040 --> 00:02:08,440
Speaker 5: get the details and games around the league. It was

22
00:02:08,480 --> 00:02:12,440
Speaker 5: always interesting to me at about this time of year

23
00:02:13,160 --> 00:02:18,520
Speaker 5: where opening day of the baseball season would roll around.

24
00:02:19,639 --> 00:02:24,400
Speaker 5: Football has always been, has always had primacy in the

25
00:02:24,440 --> 00:02:29,000
Speaker 5: state of Texas, and then there's baseball. But there's a

26
00:02:29,040 --> 00:02:34,160
Speaker 5: window of time within which basketball has its moment. And

27
00:02:34,280 --> 00:02:38,359
Speaker 5: I took Crockett to Rockets game on Sunday, and I honestly,

28
00:02:38,400 --> 00:02:41,440
Speaker 5: I hadn't been in a while. I'd forgotten what a

29
00:02:41,520 --> 00:02:45,360
Speaker 5: show it is, what an entertainment experience it is, and

30
00:02:45,400 --> 00:02:50,200
Speaker 5: how much fun that whole thing is. But I always

31
00:02:50,240 --> 00:02:56,080
Speaker 5: felt for basketball because from now until the playoffs, you've

32
00:02:56,120 --> 00:03:01,440
Speaker 5: got this interruption by baseball beginning andasketball playoffs. Everybody comes

33
00:03:01,440 --> 00:03:04,000
Speaker 5: back because baseball is kind of settled in, and you know,

34
00:03:04,040 --> 00:03:05,640
Speaker 5: we got a long season, so we don't have to

35
00:03:05,639 --> 00:03:10,280
Speaker 5: watch every baseball game, but we can. Well, those son

36
00:03:10,320 --> 00:03:15,720
Speaker 5: of a guns with the Astros have out done themselves.

Speaker 7: just I held it together because I knew I had to.

98
00:07:00,880 --> 00:07:03,839

Speaker 5: dentist is arrested. I'm just gonna tell you all something

162
00:11:10,760 --> 00:11:15,880
Speaker 5: right now. I'm not the smartest guy, but here is

163
00:11:15,920 --> 00:11:19,760
Speaker 5: my rule of though. If you go to the dentist

164
00:11:20,960 --> 00:11:22,720
Speaker 5: and it's in the middle of a section eight apartment

165
00:11:22,720 --> 00:11:29,319
Speaker 5: complex and your dentists, POOKI comes to the door. You

166
00:11:29,440 --> 00:11:33,760
Speaker 5: got five stolen TVs on the wall. Fellows are throwing

167
00:11:33,760 --> 00:11:38,839
Speaker 5: bones out in the yard. He is running around. I'm

168
00:11:38,840 --> 00:11:44,280
Speaker 5: gonna tell you that's probably not a licensed, trained, experienced dentist.

169
00:11:45,400 --> 00:11:51,480
Speaker 5: KPRCTV with yet another fake dentist arrested operating out of

170
00:11:51,480 --> 00:11:56,439
Speaker 5: apartments in southwest Houston reportedly used pliers on a woman

171
00:11:56,480 --> 00:11:59,360
Speaker 5: to pull her tooth, which caused it to break and

172
00:11:59,440 --> 00:12:02,760
Speaker 5: damage her jaw. It is hold on second here, mine,

173
00:12:02,920 --> 00:12:07,439
Speaker 5: I asked Joe. Then is that La Yes, sits down?

174
00:12:07,679 --> 00:12:11,440
Speaker 5: Good good. This is at least the fake, the fifth

175
00:12:11,559 --> 00:12:14,600
Speaker 5: fake dentist that we've told you about in the Houston

176
00:12:14,640 --> 00:12:15,960
Speaker 5: area over the last several months.

177
00:12:16,720 --> 00:12:19,680
Speaker 11: The Laplaza apartments isn't where you would normally go for

178
00:12:19,760 --> 00:12:23,000
Speaker 11: a dentist appointment, but neighbors say it's where people.

179

Speaker 11: He was accused of performing unlicensed innal work. An anonymous

181
00:12:27,640 --> 00:12:29,360
Speaker 11: neighbor told us about it in Spanish.

183
00:12:33,000 --> 00:12:35,120

184
00:12:35,720 --> 00:12:38,480
Speaker 11: HPD says Perez is accused of operating on a woman

185
00:12:38,600 --> 00:12:41,680

186
00:12:41,760 --> 00:12:45,160

187
00:12:45,320 --> 00:12:49,040
Speaker 11: The neighbor says Perez told him about prices he.

188
00:12:49,080 --> 00:12:51,440
Speaker 5: Was charging anywhere from two hundred and fifty dollars in

189
00:12:51,520 --> 00:12:53,920
Speaker 5: a He said if I ever needed any work, then

190
00:12:53,920 --> 00:12:55,440
Speaker 5: he said he knew how to take teeth out.

191
00:12:56,120 --> 00:12:59,239
Speaker 11: Record show Perez was already in custody for an unrelated

192
00:12:59,280 --> 00:13:03,120

00:13:03,160 --> 00:13:05,040
Speaker 11: attacked her at the apartment complex.

194
00:13:05,440 --> 00:13:07,040
Speaker 12: I was sitting down and he came out with a

195
00:13:07,080 --> 00:13:10,000
Speaker 12: screwdriver and was assaulting me. We had to call the cops,

196
00:13:10,040 --> 00:13:11,760
Speaker 12: and when the cops came, he was still on a

197
00:13:11,840 --> 00:13:12,640
Speaker 12: rampage ye.

198
00:13:13,920 --> 00:13:15,920
Speaker 11: She says he confused her with a different woman.

199
00:13:16,840 --> 00:13:19,480
Speaker 12: He told me that my older daughter shuttered his car windows.

200
00:13:19,800 --> 00:13:22,440
Speaker 12: The thing is that's not true because my kids.

201
00:13:22,200 --> 00:13:26,200
Speaker 11: Are small Mankata says she also knew about Perez's alleged

202
00:13:26,320 --> 00:13:30,080
Speaker 11: unlicensed dental practice and feels safer with him in custody.

203
00:13:31,400 --> 00:13:32,520
Speaker 11: Perez was placed on an.

204
00:13:32,440 --> 00:13:35,800
Speaker 13: Ieshold right after his arrest in February. Those with any

205
00:13:35,840 --> 00:13:39,080
Speaker 13: information about his dental work or asked to contact HPD.

206
00:13:39,360 --> 00:13:46,360
Speaker 13: He is due back in court in May.

207
00:13:46,480 --> 00:13:51,880
Speaker 5: I guess, I guess it happens. I guess it does happened.

208
00:13:53,320 --> 00:14:00,640
Speaker 5: ABC thirteen reporting that several of these steers the roads

209
00:14:01,800 --> 00:14:07,000
Speaker 5: that got loose on I forty five North after the

210
00:14:07,080 --> 00:14:11,600
Speaker 5: rodeo and we're jamming up traffic on I forty five North.

211
00:14:13,600 --> 00:14:18,960
Speaker 5: They say one of them is still missing. They're not

212
00:14:19,040 --> 00:14:22,880
Speaker 5: going to tell us what color it is, but they're

213
00:14:22,880 --> 00:14:25,480
Speaker 5: giving us the color of the trailer that it came

214
00:14:25,480 --> 00:14:28,320
Speaker 5: out of. It came out of a blue trailer. So

215
00:14:28,560 --> 00:14:32,680
Speaker 5: if you see a random steer seems like it's ambling

216
00:14:32,720 --> 00:14:35,600
Speaker 5: around and you're not sure if that's one of the

217
00:14:35,720 --> 00:14:39,120
Speaker 5: lost steer from the herd on I forty five North,

218
00:14:41,120 --> 00:14:44,760
Speaker 5: if it looks like it comes from a blue trailer,

219
00:14:45,480 --> 00:14:48,920
Speaker 5: which it might be separated from by a mile or two,

220
00:14:49,760 --> 00:14:52,880
Speaker 5: then if you see something, say something, because the trailer

221
00:14:52,920 --> 00:14:57,720
Speaker 5: it was in was was blue. We don't ramon. I'm

222
00:14:57,720 --> 00:14:59,120
Speaker 5: I'm making a point that we don't want to give

223
00:14:59,120 --> 00:15:03,720
Speaker 5: you the color of the steer because the color of

224
00:15:03,760 --> 00:15:08,880
Speaker 5: the steer ends up upsetting other steer you see so

225
00:15:09,200 --> 00:15:11,360
Speaker 5: we're not going to give you the color of the

226
00:15:11,400 --> 00:15:15,120
Speaker 5: steer if you have. You know, I heard of forty

227
00:15:15,160 --> 00:15:18,520
Speaker 5: steer and looks like maybe one of them you got.

228
00:15:18,720 --> 00:15:21,600
Speaker 5: Now you got forty one, and you're thinking, let me

229
00:15:21,640 --> 00:15:23,200
Speaker 5: go check and see if that's one of those steers

230
00:15:23,240 --> 00:15:28,600
Speaker 5: got out. What does it looked like? Ooh, we ain't

231
00:15:28,640 --> 00:15:33,600
Speaker 5: not playing that game. Yeah, yeah, I saw one running

232
00:15:34,640 --> 00:15:38,840
Speaker 5: away from forty five. I did. I saw one running

233
00:15:38,840 --> 00:15:42,240
Speaker 5: away from forty five. But I didn't want to make

234
00:15:42,280 --> 00:15:46,000
Speaker 5: any assumptions or nothing like that, and or nothing. I

235
00:15:46,000 --> 00:15:51,960
Speaker 5: didn't want to upset anybody. But yeah, the trailer is blue.

236
00:15:53,200 --> 00:15:57,720
Speaker 5: Trailer is blue. And the guy that was sitting on

237
00:15:57,840 --> 00:15:59,440
Speaker 5: top of it for a while I was wearing a

238
00:15:59,480 --> 00:16:02,880
Speaker 5: red shirt. He's not there anymore. Yeah, that's all you needed.

239
00:16:02,960 --> 00:16:07,240
Speaker 5: A very show. Please clap, please, please clap.

240
00:16:21,400 --> 00:16:34,040
Speaker 14: When your baby, please annoy a nobody call.

241
00:16:34,680 --> 00:16:39,720
Speaker 5: The I don't you feel like a cry?

242
00:16:42,960 --> 00:16:47,360
Speaker 4: She was in labor, and he was annoyed. Not because

243
00:16:47,360 --> 00:16:49,840
Speaker 4: his wife was in pain, mind you, but because she

244
00:16:49,920 --> 00:16:54,280
Speaker 4: was interrupting his piano practice. He was a classically trained musician,

245
00:16:54,720 --> 00:16:56,920
Speaker 4: and the baby coming into the world that night was

246
00:16:56,960 --> 00:17:00,640
Speaker 4: no Beethoven. He was sure of it, too much, too

247
00:17:00,720 --> 00:17:08,480
Speaker 4: much fuss. He preferred structure, scales, silence, but that baby

248
00:17:08,520 --> 00:17:11,359
Speaker 4: had other plans. From the moment that baby could stand,

249
00:17:11,480 --> 00:17:15,479
Speaker 4: he didn't walk. He strutted. He banked pots like drums,

250
00:17:15,480 --> 00:17:17,920
Speaker 4: and howled along with the radio like a wounded cat

251
00:17:17,960 --> 00:17:21,159
Speaker 4: and heat. By the time he was a teenager, the

252
00:17:21,200 --> 00:17:24,560
Speaker 4: neighbors had nicknamed him that noisy boy down the block.

253
00:17:25,000 --> 00:17:25,639
Speaker 5: He liked.

254
00:17:28,600 --> 00:17:31,919
Speaker 4: And in school he didn't fit in. He wasn't the

255
00:17:32,080 --> 00:17:35,199
Speaker 4: quarterback or the mathlete. He was the kid in the

256
00:17:35,240 --> 00:17:38,200
Speaker 4: back of the class, sketching skulls on his notebooks and

257
00:17:38,280 --> 00:17:41,720
Speaker 4: humming yardbird riffs under his breath. He tried being a

258
00:17:41,800 --> 00:17:45,119
Speaker 4: drummer once, but the sticks couldn't keep up with his spirit.

259
00:17:45,600 --> 00:17:49,200
Speaker 4: He had to be out front, center stage, not just

260
00:17:49,280 --> 00:17:54,520
Speaker 4: seen heard. So he found some other misfits, glued feathers

261
00:17:54,520 --> 00:17:57,160
Speaker 4: to his mic stand, painted his pants on, and screamed

262
00:17:57,200 --> 00:18:00,679
Speaker 4: his way into rock history. He blew out speaker, burned

263
00:18:00,680 --> 00:18:03,639
Speaker 4: through hotel rooms, and danced like a marionette set on fire.

264
00:18:04,200 --> 00:18:07,560
Speaker 4: They called him a madman, a rock god. He called

265
00:18:07,600 --> 00:18:17,879
Speaker 4: it Tuesday, and just when the critics thought he was

266
00:18:17,920 --> 00:18:21,399
Speaker 4: a footnote from the seventies, he leaned back, hid a

267
00:18:21,440 --> 00:18:24,960
Speaker 4: note nobody expected, and reminded the world that some legends

268
00:18:25,040 --> 00:18:29,600
Speaker 4: don't fade, They just grow louder in the memory. He

269
00:18:29,680 --> 00:18:32,399
Speaker 4: may not how like he once did, but the echo

270
00:18:32,680 --> 00:18:39,400
Speaker 4: he left behind still rattles the rafters. So ultimately his

271
00:18:39,400 --> 00:18:43,479
Speaker 4: father was right. He was no Beethoven. He was louder,

272
00:18:44,320 --> 00:18:50,160
Speaker 4: louder in voice and spirit and everything. Where Beethoven had orchestras,

273
00:18:50,480 --> 00:18:56,240
Speaker 4: he had marshal stacks, where Beethoven moves souls. He rattled bones.

274
00:18:57,040 --> 00:19:00,159
Speaker 4: He didn't write concertos, He let them on fire air

275
00:19:00,280 --> 00:19:04,880
Speaker 4: and strutted through the smoke. Beethoven wore tales. This one

276
00:19:05,320 --> 00:19:12,040
Speaker 4: wore scarves and eyeliner, and still millions listened, millions felt something,

277
00:19:12,760 --> 00:19:16,960
Speaker 4: not in a concert hall, but in a garage, a basement,

278
00:19:17,720 --> 00:19:21,280
Speaker 4: at midnight drive with the windows down. He didn't compose

279
00:19:21,320 --> 00:19:27,160
Speaker 4: for the elite. He screamed for the restless. Steven Tyler

280
00:19:27,640 --> 00:20:00,520
Speaker 4: or in March twenty sixth, nineteen forty eight, Happy birthday, stepd.

281
00:20:17,960 --> 00:20:22,400
Speaker 5: Part of me says, little buddy, you should have more

282
00:20:23,840 --> 00:20:29,439
Speaker 5: late night bourbon fueled creative moments, because I always enjoy

283
00:20:30,280 --> 00:20:34,520
Speaker 5: what you put together. Part of me says is he

284
00:20:34,680 --> 00:20:37,160
Speaker 5: creating demo tapes right in front of my very eyes,

285
00:20:38,040 --> 00:20:40,200
Speaker 5: to go off and do his own show. Maybe don't.

286
00:20:41,720 --> 00:20:47,080
Speaker 5: Maybe what if we play one of those he gets discovered. Huh,

287
00:20:47,400 --> 00:20:51,439
Speaker 5: has something to think about right there, That is something

288
00:20:51,480 --> 00:20:58,760
Speaker 5: to think about. So Jim Mackingveil known to the world

289
00:20:58,880 --> 00:21:05,960
Speaker 5: as Mattress Mac, has a voicemail. He contacted me yesterday.

290
00:21:06,160 --> 00:21:08,840
Speaker 5: I can't remember what it was. And I called him

291
00:21:08,880 --> 00:21:11,480
Speaker 5: back and he always picks up, but this time he

292
00:21:11,520 --> 00:21:14,800
Speaker 5: didn't pick up, and I was listening to his voicemail.

293
00:21:14,800 --> 00:21:15,200
Speaker 11: Do you have it?

294
00:21:16,480 --> 00:21:20,400
Speaker 5: I think Jim loaded it. I was listening to his voicemail. Well,

295
00:21:20,480 --> 00:21:25,320
Speaker 5: if Jim didn't load it, we'll fire him, he said.

296
00:21:25,560 --> 00:21:31,199
Speaker 5: He says something in his voicemail that don't send me

297
00:21:31,200 --> 00:21:34,399
Speaker 5: an email because I don't read him. I don't have

298
00:21:34,440 --> 00:21:38,160
Speaker 5: time to read them because I'm focused on the people

299
00:21:38,280 --> 00:21:41,639
Speaker 5: right in front of me and taking care of the customers.

300
00:21:42,880 --> 00:21:46,320
Speaker 5: And I thought about that for a good hour afterwards,

301
00:21:48,480 --> 00:21:52,280
Speaker 5: because it was a metaphor for something. How many times

302
00:21:52,280 --> 00:21:56,960
Speaker 5: do you walk into a store, and especially if it's

303
00:21:57,000 --> 00:21:59,440
Speaker 5: not owner operated, or even in that case, sometimes the

304
00:21:59,480 --> 00:22:02,800
Speaker 5: owner's not there. You walk into a store and the

305
00:22:02,840 --> 00:22:06,320
Speaker 5: employees were supposed to be there to help you are

306
00:22:06,359 --> 00:22:09,159
Speaker 5: off talking, especially if they're young, they're off geegan talking

307
00:22:09,160 --> 00:22:12,680
Speaker 5: to each other what they're gonna do, and it's almost

308
00:22:13,240 --> 00:22:17,440
Speaker 5: like it's a hassle for you for them to help you.

309
00:22:17,760 --> 00:22:20,679
Speaker 5: Like God got to help that guy too, because he

310
00:22:20,800 --> 00:22:24,960
Speaker 5: came in the door. But that's the whole reason that

311
00:22:25,000 --> 00:22:27,840
Speaker 5: place exists, is the person who comes in the door.

312
00:22:28,920 --> 00:22:31,600
Speaker 5: Are you call ABIs nobody answers? If anymore? I called

313
00:22:31,640 --> 00:22:36,600
Speaker 5: the Ace Hardware Langham Creek location yesterday. I was going

314
00:22:36,600 --> 00:22:38,800
Speaker 5: in the afternoon to visit Rick Tap, who's one of

315
00:22:38,840 --> 00:22:42,399
Speaker 5: my Ace Hardware Texas dot Com chows sponsors, almost going

316
00:22:42,400 --> 00:22:45,240
Speaker 5: to swing in on him, and it was such a

317
00:22:45,320 --> 00:22:48,280
Speaker 5: nice thing because I've only ever emailed or texted or

318
00:22:48,359 --> 00:22:51,040
Speaker 5: called him. But I thought, I'll call the store. I

319
00:22:51,040 --> 00:22:52,960
Speaker 5: just want to see how the store answers were not called.

320
00:22:53,800 --> 00:22:56,240
Speaker 5: And it was a chirpy young lady and she picked

321
00:22:56,280 --> 00:22:59,400
Speaker 5: up Ace Hardware Langham Creek. How can I help you today,

322
00:23:00,160 --> 00:23:03,719
Speaker 5: I said, Rick Tap, and she said I'm sorry, like

323
00:23:04,200 --> 00:23:08,159
Speaker 5: you could tell she was genuinely sorry. It kind of

324
00:23:08,200 --> 00:23:10,840
Speaker 5: took her mood down a notch. She was not able

325
00:23:10,840 --> 00:23:13,800
Speaker 5: to put him on the phone, because clearly, even if

326
00:23:13,840 --> 00:23:16,240
Speaker 5: I'm selling him life insurance, I needed to talk to him.

327
00:23:16,880 --> 00:23:19,359
Speaker 5: And I said, well, I'm about to head out and

328
00:23:19,440 --> 00:23:23,200
Speaker 5: visit with him. Is he there today? And he's out

329
00:23:23,200 --> 00:23:26,320
Speaker 5: at lunch because it's about one o'clock. She said, no, sir,

330
00:23:26,400 --> 00:23:30,240
Speaker 5: he's out of he's out. I find out his mother,

331
00:23:30,440 --> 00:23:33,120
Speaker 5: his mother, who's in her late eighties, and I think

332
00:23:33,119 --> 00:23:35,520
Speaker 5: she lives in Oklahoma. She lives somewhere off and so

333
00:23:35,560 --> 00:23:37,960
Speaker 5: he goes once a month to visit her for three

334
00:23:38,040 --> 00:23:40,720
Speaker 5: days and then comes back. And I said, well, do

335
00:23:40,760 --> 00:23:43,600
Speaker 5: you expect him back tomorrow? And she said, no, sir,

336
00:23:44,200 --> 00:23:47,520
Speaker 5: he'll be back on Friday. And I said, oh, I

337
00:23:47,640 --> 00:23:51,320
Speaker 5: felt so quaint. This was like nineteen seventies. I've called

338
00:23:52,000 --> 00:23:54,840
Speaker 5: a person that speaks English as their first language has answered.

339
00:23:55,400 --> 00:23:59,600
Speaker 5: They seem happy to help me and answer my questions.

340
00:24:00,240 --> 00:24:02,880
Speaker 5: This is the this is the moment in the movie

341
00:24:03,040 --> 00:24:07,200
Speaker 5: where the naive employee is giving away information that causes

342
00:24:07,240 --> 00:24:10,280
Speaker 5: the person to be kidnapped, right because they're not sufficiently

343
00:24:11,200 --> 00:24:13,840
Speaker 5: so sophisticated that they're not answering your questions and they're

344
00:24:13,880 --> 00:24:17,000
Speaker 5: hanging up on you. And so we talked for a

345
00:24:17,000 --> 00:24:20,760
Speaker 5: while and I thought, Wow, that's a throwback. That's kind

346
00:24:20,760 --> 00:24:23,480
Speaker 5: of ace hardware, you know, the helpful hardware man kind

347
00:24:23,480 --> 00:24:27,119
Speaker 5: of thing. But who very few places you call a

348
00:24:27,240 --> 00:24:30,560
Speaker 5: Corey Diamonds. You're gonna you're gonna get honey, but most

349
00:24:30,560 --> 00:24:34,439
Speaker 5: places you don't get a human anymore. Anyway, it just

350
00:24:34,480 --> 00:24:38,480
Speaker 5: struck me that Mac is saying in his voicemail exactly

351
00:24:38,520 --> 00:24:43,240
Speaker 5: what I feel, which is, know your priorities, no matter

352
00:24:43,240 --> 00:24:48,440
Speaker 5: how big, how important, how many couches beds that he sells.

353
00:24:48,920 --> 00:24:51,320
Speaker 5: He knows that the most important thing is a person

354
00:24:51,359 --> 00:24:56,800
Speaker 5: walking through the door. How many people understand that?

355
00:24:58,760 --> 00:25:09,600
Speaker 1: Is the Michael Barrys shows.

356
00:25:05,440 --> 00:25:07,960
Speaker 5: Who can't get over that He's no Beethoven?

357
00:25:08,000 --> 00:25:08,320
Speaker 4: Did you.

358
00:25:09,840 --> 00:25:11,879
Speaker 5: You must have been hitting the sauce hard to just

359
00:25:11,920 --> 00:25:16,520
Speaker 5: sit down and write that you did it sober For

360
00:25:16,600 --> 00:25:23,679
Speaker 5: Steven Tyler, Oh my goodness, Brandon writes a note on

361
00:25:24,000 --> 00:25:28,639
Speaker 5: crying in baseball. My parents dedicated countless hours watching me

362
00:25:28,760 --> 00:25:33,520
Speaker 5: play from T ball through my high school years. Dad

363
00:25:33,520 --> 00:25:35,600
Speaker 5: even coached several of my Little league teams and spent

364
00:25:35,680 --> 00:25:39,160
Speaker 5: so much time sacrificing his own body while I developed

365
00:25:39,160 --> 00:25:41,960
Speaker 5: into a pitcher. I don't care if it came from

366
00:25:42,000 --> 00:25:46,000
Speaker 5: Tom Hanks or Penny Marshall or George Patton. You can

367
00:25:46,560 --> 00:25:50,879
Speaker 5: cry in baseball. Ask anybody who was there when lou

368
00:25:50,960 --> 00:25:55,920
Speaker 5: gerrig delivered his retirement speech. Ask anyone who watched Gibbey's

369
00:25:55,960 --> 00:25:58,879
Speaker 5: broken body walk it off for the Dodgers in eighty eight.

370
00:25:58,960 --> 00:26:02,560
Speaker 5: He didn't walk it off. He jogged. While he's starting

371
00:26:02,600 --> 00:26:08,480
Speaker 5: the chainsaw man. You can see that even the celebration

372
00:26:09,440 --> 00:26:13,480
Speaker 5: is exacerbating the pain, but he doesn't care because this

373
00:26:13,560 --> 00:26:17,440
Speaker 5: is the moment. More recently, how about the Astros Game

374
00:26:17,480 --> 00:26:21,680
Speaker 5: five in the seventeen series. Those are just the professional moments,

375
00:26:21,720 --> 00:26:24,720
Speaker 5: not the millions of others made between parents and kids

376
00:26:24,720 --> 00:26:28,800
Speaker 5: for the true American pastime. No crying in baseball is

377
00:26:28,840 --> 00:26:32,200
Speaker 5: the led Zeppelin effect. People repeat it because they think

378
00:26:32,240 --> 00:26:35,800
Speaker 5: they have to. And a happy birthday to Tennessee williams.

379
00:26:36,960 --> 00:26:39,080
Speaker 5: Oh I was kidding when I said there's no I

380
00:26:39,119 --> 00:26:41,480
Speaker 5: said there's no. I know there's no crying in baseball.

381
00:26:41,920 --> 00:26:46,239
Speaker 5: But if you have not, you just tuned in. If

382
00:26:46,280 --> 00:26:50,520
Speaker 5: you have not seen the video of Joe Espada the

383
00:26:50,680 --> 00:26:53,960
Speaker 5: call up with Cam Smith where they have his mom

384
00:26:54,080 --> 00:26:58,600
Speaker 5: come walking in and he realizes that he's been called

385
00:26:58,680 --> 00:27:02,680
Speaker 5: up to the bigs and that his mom is there

386
00:27:02,720 --> 00:27:05,159
Speaker 5: for the moment. I think that was as much. I

387
00:27:05,160 --> 00:27:07,439
Speaker 5: think he expected he'd be called up. It's just going

388
00:27:07,520 --> 00:27:10,320
Speaker 5: to happen, I me. I think he's first four at bats,

389
00:27:10,320 --> 00:27:12,360
Speaker 5: he had two home runs and two walks or something.

390
00:27:12,400 --> 00:27:20,439
Speaker 5: It just play discipline and extreme power. Wow. But you know,

391
00:27:20,600 --> 00:27:25,080
Speaker 5: so much of life the older I get is having

392
00:27:25,119 --> 00:27:31,000
Speaker 5: the sense to slow down. There are so many things

393
00:27:31,200 --> 00:27:35,960
Speaker 5: whizzing around us, having the good sense to slow down

394
00:27:36,560 --> 00:27:40,400
Speaker 5: for a moment. So I spend time with my dad

395
00:27:40,400 --> 00:27:44,439
Speaker 5: every afternoon at the old Folks Home, and one of

396
00:27:44,440 --> 00:27:49,359
Speaker 5: the things that strikes you rather quickly is that the

397
00:27:49,520 --> 00:27:54,200
Speaker 5: people are talking to each other and it goes something

398
00:27:54,240 --> 00:28:03,640
Speaker 5: like this, but hell, hell, hell, huh what s she said?

399
00:28:03,760 --> 00:28:09,159
Speaker 5: What time is gonna eat? Uh? Five? Five? Think five?

400
00:28:09,280 --> 00:28:13,440
Speaker 5: What they said? Five? Well they have to do huh?

401
00:28:13,560 --> 00:28:17,080
Speaker 5: Well they have what. I can't hear you. I can't.

402
00:28:17,080 --> 00:28:21,240
Speaker 5: I can't hear what you're saying. What what is she saying? Uh?

403
00:28:21,359 --> 00:28:24,240
Speaker 5: She's wants to know what they're serving this evening? Oh

404
00:28:24,680 --> 00:28:29,320
Speaker 5: was shoot, I don't know, Heck, I don't know. Probably

405
00:28:29,320 --> 00:28:33,000
Speaker 5: the same thing they had yesterday. She's just she said,

406
00:28:33,040 --> 00:28:34,600
Speaker 5: she was just she's not trying to side. If she's

407
00:28:34,600 --> 00:28:37,840
Speaker 5: gonna eat in a room or in the living room, huh,

408
00:28:37,960 --> 00:28:45,080
Speaker 5: she's she's trying to nothing. Huh. Well that's what I said,

409
00:28:45,360 --> 00:28:49,560
Speaker 5: you know. But in the midst of all of that,

410
00:28:51,160 --> 00:28:58,320
Speaker 5: they're actually interacting with each other. And it's amazing. You know, everybody.

411
00:28:58,960 --> 00:29:01,360
Speaker 5: Crazy things happen in the course of every person's life,

412
00:29:01,360 --> 00:29:03,400
Speaker 5: and that's always been the case. You know, the wheel

413
00:29:03,480 --> 00:29:06,200
Speaker 5: was invented during some new's lifetime and that changed everything.

414
00:29:06,960 --> 00:29:10,479
Speaker 5: But in the course of my lifetime, we went from

415
00:29:11,000 --> 00:29:15,240
Speaker 5: nobody had a cell phone to everybody had a cell phone.

416
00:29:16,000 --> 00:29:19,600
Speaker 5: You go into rural villages in India where they eat

417
00:29:19,680 --> 00:29:21,760
Speaker 5: a little bit of rice and a little bit of

418
00:29:21,840 --> 00:29:24,040
Speaker 5: doll every day, and that's it. No shoes, they got

419
00:29:24,040 --> 00:29:28,800
Speaker 5: a cell phone. Everybody's got a cell phone. It's crazy.

420
00:29:28,840 --> 00:29:35,520
Speaker 5: But the important part of that is that the phone

421
00:29:35,560 --> 00:29:38,960
Speaker 5: didn't do this. We did it to ourselves. So here

422
00:29:39,000 --> 00:29:43,000
Speaker 5: is Mattress Mack's voicemail message. I think there is incredible

423
00:29:43,080 --> 00:29:46,320
Speaker 5: wisdom in this. Give this a listen. Ohing.

424
00:29:46,360 --> 00:29:50,000
Speaker 15: I'm currently with a customer. Please don't leave a voicemail.

425
00:29:50,680 --> 00:29:52,800
Speaker 15: I will see your collar ID on the phone and

426
00:29:52,880 --> 00:29:56,120
Speaker 15: call you back. Please don't try to FaceTime me. I'm

427
00:29:56,120 --> 00:29:58,640
Speaker 15: too old, I'm too tired, I'm too involved in this

428
00:29:58,720 --> 00:30:01,640
Speaker 15: game of pleasing customers. FaceTime anybody and.

429
00:30:01,680 --> 00:30:02,480
Speaker 5: Don't email me.

430
00:30:02,480 --> 00:30:04,520
Speaker 15: I don't read the emails. I take care of customers

431
00:30:04,560 --> 00:30:07,560
Speaker 15: all the time. I'll see your caller ID, I'll call

432
00:30:07,600 --> 00:30:09,920
Speaker 15: you back. Until then, have a great day, and I

433
00:30:09,960 --> 00:30:12,560
Speaker 15: hope you slept great last night. On your gallery furns

434
00:30:12,600 --> 00:30:15,640
Speaker 15: your temper petit mattress.

435
00:30:15,640 --> 00:30:20,240
Speaker 5: At the tone, please record your message. So Chance McLean

436
00:30:20,320 --> 00:30:23,040
Speaker 5: sent me something he was reading my full named George

437
00:30:23,040 --> 00:30:25,360
Speaker 5: mac I don't know who he is. And it's called

438
00:30:25,880 --> 00:30:31,959
Speaker 5: high agency. And because we're such an attention deficit society,

439
00:30:32,480 --> 00:30:36,160
Speaker 5: it says high agency in thirty minutes. I follow some

440
00:30:36,320 --> 00:30:39,120
Speaker 5: sites that I read columns and perspectives and opinion, and

441
00:30:39,160 --> 00:30:40,400
Speaker 5: they tell you how long it's going to take to

442
00:30:40,400 --> 00:30:42,160
Speaker 5: read it before you read it. And I'm ashamed to

443
00:30:42,160 --> 00:30:46,480
Speaker 5: admit I love that. In high agency, he describes as

444
00:30:46,480 --> 00:30:49,800
Speaker 5: the most important idea of the twenty first century, it's

445
00:30:49,840 --> 00:30:53,680
Speaker 5: the sense that you were in complete control of your life.

446
00:30:54,800 --> 00:31:00,240
Speaker 5: And he talks about the person with high agency your

447
00:31:00,240 --> 00:31:04,720
Speaker 5: life is the person that if you were wrongfully imprisoned

448
00:31:05,080 --> 00:31:07,880
Speaker 5: in a third world country would be the one person

449
00:31:07,920 --> 00:31:12,480
Speaker 5: you would call because they would get you out. And

450
00:31:12,680 --> 00:31:14,640
Speaker 5: he's this is the line I wanted to get to.

451
00:31:15,120 --> 00:31:19,120
Speaker 5: High agency can be a confusing idea to understand because

452
00:31:19,160 --> 00:31:21,920
Speaker 5: it's not just one idea. It's a combination of three

453
00:31:22,000 --> 00:31:25,960
Speaker 5: distinct skills rarely found together. Number one clear thinking, number

454
00:31:25,960 --> 00:31:31,480
Speaker 5: two bias to action, and number three disagreeability. And here's

455
00:31:31,520 --> 00:31:35,320
Speaker 5: what I have come to learn. Donald Trump is very disagreeable.

456
00:31:36,200 --> 00:31:40,960
Speaker 5: To the swamp, for the Democrats, to the media, Mac

457
00:31:41,080 --> 00:31:44,280
Speaker 5: is very disagreeable. People will sometimes tell me if Hillman,

458
00:31:44,320 --> 00:31:47,680
Speaker 5: Fertida or Mac or Trump or someone else that that

459
00:31:47,760 --> 00:31:50,160
Speaker 5: per Mac goes. You know, everybody thinks he's an ass.

460
00:31:50,200 --> 00:31:53,440
Speaker 5: He has to be an ass. If you are going along,

461
00:31:53,520 --> 00:31:56,080
Speaker 5: you're just You're just being pushed along with the herd.

462
00:31:56,960 --> 00:31:59,520
Speaker 5: In order to have high agency, in order to take

463
00:31:59,520 --> 00:32:02,040
Speaker 5: control your life, in order to be great at what

464
00:32:02,080 --> 00:32:04,200
