I mean, it's it's been 18 00:01:13,520 --> 00:01:19,240 Speaker 1: a day unlike anything I've I've ever seen. And somebody 19 00:01:19,400 --> 00:01:22,160 Speaker 1: just tweeted this, David Chilean. I don't know even who 20 00:01:22,240 --> 00:01:26,880 Speaker 1: that is. He just said, just to review Kenosha Hurricane 21 00:01:27,000 --> 00:01:29,800 Speaker 1: Laura Fauci, which I'm not sure what the news is 22 00:01:29,800 --> 00:01:34,920 Speaker 1: on Fouci. Haven't seen that NBA Republican National Convention Night 23 00:01:35,120 --> 00:01:41,000 Speaker 1: three all taking places today.

Well, Mark, I can't remember a day. I 29 00:01:58,480 --> 00:02:04,560 Speaker 1: can't remember shows that we've done that. I didn't know 30 00:02:04,640 --> 00:02:06,960 Speaker 1: what was gonna when Jake said Mike was hot. I 31 00:02:07,040 --> 00:02:09,280 Speaker 1: wasn't exactly sure what I was gonna say to start 32 00:02:09,320 --> 00:02:16,720 Speaker 1: to show tonight because it's been just incredibly I don't 33 00:02:16,760 --> 00:02:18,200 Speaker 1: want to say odd, because I don't know Odd's not 34 00:02:18,280 --> 00:02:21,160 Speaker 1: the right word, but just a day where you just 35 00:02:21,280 --> 00:02:26,480 Speaker 1: feel like the balloon of stress just is just almost 36 00:02:26,520 --> 00:02:28,679 Speaker 1: out of this world. And maybe maybe today was a 37 00:02:28,800 --> 00:02:31,840 Speaker 1: day that balloon burst in some sense with all that's 38 00:02:31,880 --> 00:02:35,760 Speaker 1: going on, and the NBA just finally said nope, but 39 00:02:36,200 --> 00:02:40,160 Speaker 1: you look, we have been, we have been, We've been 40 00:02:40,600 --> 00:02:42,880 Speaker 1: talking to talk, and now we're gonna walk the walk. 41 00:02:43,360 --> 00:02:46,520 Speaker 1: They've been talking and wearing messages on their jerseys um 42 00:02:46,680 --> 00:02:49,960 Speaker 1: for social injustice, and today the Bucks finally said the 43 00:02:50,000 --> 00:02:53,840 Speaker 1: team obviously closest to Kenosha, Wisconsin, just said we're not 44 00:02:53,880 --> 00:02:56,680 Speaker 1: doing it. We're not playing And teams and leagues have 45 00:02:56,840 --> 00:03:01,640 Speaker 1: sort of fallen in place in some sense, and it's 46 00:03:01,680 --> 00:03:07,280 Speaker 1: just it's just an amazing, amazing point in our American 47 00:03:07,360 --> 00:03:10,160 Speaker 1: history mark that we have gotten to today. It's just 48 00:03:10,639 --> 00:03:14,720 Speaker 1: it's just flat out incredible. It's we use the word 49 00:03:14,840 --> 00:03:18,639 Speaker 1: awesome now to describe something that is great and just, 50 00:03:19,120 --> 00:03:22,880 Speaker 1: you know, so cool, but the true definition of awesome 51 00:03:22,960 --> 00:03:26,520 Speaker 1: is it's just is jaw dropping, like you can't believe it. 52 00:03:26,560 --> 00:03:28,680 Speaker 1: And this is kind of one of those days. Near 53 00:03:28,720 --> 00:03:33,560 Speaker 1: the end of August of twenty twenty, Johnny, I couldn't 54 00:03:33,560 --> 00:03:36,960 Speaker 1: have said it better. It's it's such a unique day. 55 00:03:37,000 --> 00:03:41,480 Speaker 1: It's such a bizarre day. It's a powerful day. It's 56 00:03:41,480 --> 00:03:43,760 Speaker 1: a day that and I don't know where it goes 57 00:03:43,760 --> 00:03:45,480 Speaker 1: from here. Look, I don't know how big this is 58 00:03:45,520 --> 00:03:49,680 Speaker 1: going to get or if this is going to cause change. 59 00:03:49,960 --> 00:03:54,000 Speaker 1: Today we have seen, I mean, just watching NBA games 60 00:03:54,080 --> 00:03:56,760 Speaker 1: and seeing black Lives Matter on the court is something 61 00:03:56,800 --> 00:03:58,960 Speaker 1: that I don't know if any of us could have 62 00:03:58,960 --> 00:04:03,520 Speaker 1: expected that last year or prior to what happened with 63 00:04:03,520 --> 00:04:07,280 Speaker 1: George Floyd or whatever. And you know, my first, my 64 00:04:07,360 --> 00:04:09,720 Speaker 1: gut reaction. You know, sometimes you do that gut reaction. 65 00:04:10,280 --> 00:04:12,920 Speaker 1: I was listening to Wade and Ron and they broke 66 00:04:12,920 --> 00:04:15,800 Speaker 1: the news to me about the Bucks, and I kind 67 00:04:15,800 --> 00:04:19,160 Speaker 1: of jumped into the middle of the initial breaking of 68 00:04:19,279 --> 00:04:21,080 Speaker 1: the news and I thought, WHOA, wait a minute, and 69 00:04:21,120 --> 00:04:23,080 Speaker 1: I caught on right away. I'm like, okay, I get it. 70 00:04:23,120 --> 00:04:25,320 Speaker 1: I get what happened. And they were they they didn't 71 00:04:25,320 --> 00:04:30,000 Speaker 1: know at that time whether the Rockets and thunder game 72 00:04:30,160 --> 00:04:33,080 Speaker 1: was going to follow suit, but it seemed logical that 73 00:04:33,160 --> 00:04:35,600 Speaker 1: it would and it would start a domino effect, and 74 00:04:35,680 --> 00:04:39,960 Speaker 1: that's what Wade Smith called it. And I get the outrage. 75 00:04:40,160 --> 00:04:44,160 Speaker 1: I mean, I get the outrage. I don't live the outrage, 76 00:04:44,360 --> 00:04:48,320 Speaker 1: you know, but I get we need to end racism. 77 00:04:48,400 --> 00:04:51,760 Speaker 1: We have to end racism. I guess my concern about 78 00:04:51,800 --> 00:04:54,960 Speaker 1: this and changes demanded now other than the arrest of 79 00:04:55,000 --> 00:04:59,280 Speaker 1: the individuals involved in specific incidents like Rihanna Taylor and 80 00:04:59,320 --> 00:05:02,040 Speaker 1: the man and I'm sorry I forgot his name already 81 00:05:02,040 --> 00:05:07,400 Speaker 1: and um in Wisconsin. Other than Jacob Blake. Other than 82 00:05:07,440 --> 00:05:11,680 Speaker 1: the specific arrests of those individuals. Um, you know the 83 00:05:11,839 --> 00:05:14,080 Speaker 1: change that you seek. I don't know if you see 84 00:05:14,120 --> 00:05:16,800 Speaker 1: the change other than policy change. But I don't know 85 00:05:16,839 --> 00:05:20,159 Speaker 1: if you see the change until you live for a 86 00:05:20,200 --> 00:05:23,479 Speaker 1: while under UM a new way of thinking, you know. 87 00:05:23,520 --> 00:05:25,919 Speaker 1: And it all comes down to the point of the 88 00:05:26,080 --> 00:05:29,400 Speaker 1: point of UM, I don't want to say attack, but 89 00:05:29,480 --> 00:05:32,719 Speaker 1: the point of those arrests or attempt at arrests, or 90 00:05:33,120 --> 00:05:36,600 Speaker 1: you know, when when the police meet people that they 91 00:05:36,600 --> 00:05:39,440 Speaker 1: are trying to arrest or apprehend or whatever, and what 92 00:05:39,640 --> 00:05:42,760 Speaker 1: goes down in those moments, and does everybody do the 93 00:05:42,839 --> 00:05:45,200 Speaker 1: right thing? You know? And and you won't know until 94 00:05:45,200 --> 00:05:50,560 Speaker 1: you get there. And it's so heartbreaking because again, you 95 00:05:50,640 --> 00:05:53,159 Speaker 1: don't know until you live for a while that things 96 00:05:53,240 --> 00:05:56,279 Speaker 1: have changed. And clearly you know after everything we went through, 97 00:05:56,320 --> 00:06:00,400 Speaker 1: I mean, massive protests, morphing, the riots in some as, 98 00:06:00,520 --> 00:06:04,640 Speaker 1: and then athletes really coming on board with these messages 99 00:06:04,640 --> 00:06:06,480 Speaker 1: and messaging. And the NFL is gonna do it too, 100 00:06:06,520 --> 00:06:09,839 Speaker 1: By the way, it's already been determined prior to what 101 00:06:10,000 --> 00:06:12,920 Speaker 1: happened with Jacob Blake. It's already gonna happen in this league. 102 00:06:12,920 --> 00:06:16,200 Speaker 1: You're gonna see a huge change in messaging and social 103 00:06:16,240 --> 00:06:22,279 Speaker 1: justice acknowledgement promotion of social justice causes in the National 104 00:06:22,320 --> 00:06:25,720 Speaker 1: Football League. You're gonna see that, And it was all 105 00:06:25,760 --> 00:06:27,840 Speaker 1: gonna happen anyway, But I don't know where it goes 106 00:06:27,880 --> 00:06:30,440 Speaker 1: from here, So I and I don't know how you 107 00:06:30,480 --> 00:06:32,640 Speaker 1: can measure that other than you know, you don't have 108 00:06:32,680 --> 00:06:35,160 Speaker 1: incidents like this happening. What happened with Jacob Blake, you know, 109 00:06:35,240 --> 00:06:37,040 Speaker 1: And I know everybody said, well, you pick up a 110 00:06:37,120 --> 00:06:40,200 Speaker 1: video in the middle and everything. I look, I don't 111 00:06:40,240 --> 00:06:42,799 Speaker 1: want to get into that. I can get into this though, 112 00:06:43,240 --> 00:06:47,520 Speaker 1: I understand the outrage. I'm just wondering what leverage they, 113 00:06:47,960 --> 00:06:51,000 Speaker 1: you know, the players really have in doing this. Does 114 00:06:51,040 --> 00:06:53,720 Speaker 1: it have an impact? You know what I mean? Does 115 00:06:53,760 --> 00:06:57,400 Speaker 1: it have an impact because NFL players chimed in on Twitter? Well, 116 00:06:57,560 --> 00:06:59,920 Speaker 1: NFL you would think would have more leverage because it's 117 00:07:00,040 --> 00:07:03,680 Speaker 1: more popular sport. But we'll see. I don't know, I mean, 118 00:07:03,680 --> 00:07:05,160 Speaker 1: and I don't know what can be done that's going 119 00:07:05,200 --> 00:07:07,960 Speaker 1: to satisfy everybody in the short term. In the long term, 120 00:07:08,040 --> 00:07:10,560 Speaker 1: I can definitely see it, But in the short term, 121 00:07:10,600 --> 00:07:14,000 Speaker 1: I don't know what satisfies everybody, And what what proves 122 00:07:14,040 --> 00:07:17,400 Speaker 1: that things are going to change or have changed. So 123 00:07:17,680 --> 00:07:20,560 Speaker 1: I think it's a very complex issue. And I'm not 124 00:07:20,600 --> 00:07:22,880 Speaker 1: trying to be politically correct here. I'm just I'm just 125 00:07:22,880 --> 00:07:25,600 Speaker 1: saying it as I see it, and I I don't 126 00:07:25,880 --> 00:07:28,760 Speaker 1: I've never been pulled over for DWB, you know. And 127 00:07:28,840 --> 00:07:31,640 Speaker 1: that's that's the lighter part of all this, Okay, I 128 00:07:31,680 --> 00:07:34,520 Speaker 1: mean that's you know, but I never have. Every time 129 00:07:34,560 --> 00:07:37,760 Speaker 1: I've been pulled over by the police, I guarantee you 130 00:07:38,320 --> 00:07:42,680 Speaker 1: I have deserved it. Okay, I have definitely deserved it. 131 00:07:43,080 --> 00:07:46,160 Speaker 1: You know, sometimes have gone better than others for me, 132 00:07:47,200 --> 00:07:50,680 Speaker 1: sometimes the warnings, but I've never you know. And and honestly, 133 00:07:50,720 --> 00:07:53,000 Speaker 1: you know, do you have fear? And I get it 134 00:07:53,280 --> 00:07:55,680 Speaker 1: because I've talked to you know, I did a podcast 135 00:07:55,720 --> 00:07:57,760 Speaker 1: with Spencer tell me about this, and he's been pulled 136 00:07:57,760 --> 00:08:01,400 Speaker 1: over plenty of time. Near is how you know? I 137 00:08:01,440 --> 00:08:05,480 Speaker 1: have not been pulled over for DWW. I've been pulled 138 00:08:05,480 --> 00:08:08,600 Speaker 1: over for speeding and maybe you know, taking a liberty 139 00:08:08,640 --> 00:08:11,120 Speaker 1: at a traffic light when there's nobody around, uh, that 140 00:08:11,200 --> 00:08:13,240 Speaker 1: kind of thing. So, like I say, I've deserved it, 141 00:08:13,400 --> 00:08:16,560 Speaker 1: and I know I'm rambling now, Johnny, but it's I 142 00:08:16,880 --> 00:08:20,000 Speaker 1: did you know? Here we are still and the players 143 00:08:20,000 --> 00:08:23,000 Speaker 1: are fed up. I don't know. I have a lot 144 00:08:23,040 --> 00:08:25,440 Speaker 1: of opinions on how I might handle it, but I'm 145 00:08:25,480 --> 00:08:28,120 Speaker 1: not them. I I can't. You know, you it's hard 146 00:08:28,160 --> 00:08:30,480 Speaker 1: to walk in another man's shoes. You can only imagine 147 00:08:30,520 --> 00:08:33,080 Speaker 1: what it's like. You can't really, you can't put yourself 148 00:08:33,120 --> 00:08:35,760 Speaker 1: there because you're not there, you know. Yeah, you know 149 00:08:35,800 --> 00:08:38,960 Speaker 1: it's interesting because I I kind of thought, you know, 150 00:08:39,000 --> 00:08:41,880 Speaker 1: as you were talking, you know, what what do they? 151 00:08:41,920 --> 00:08:46,079 Speaker 1: What do players? What do organizations whatever the case might be, 152 00:08:46,720 --> 00:08:52,320 Speaker 1: what do people you know that have been involved in 153 00:08:52,400 --> 00:08:56,760 Speaker 1: the social injustice the push? As as Kenny Still said 154 00:08:56,800 --> 00:09:01,880 Speaker 1: the other day, you know, gosh, what was the term 155 00:09:01,880 --> 00:09:04,760 Speaker 1: that I used to Now I had to my tongue 156 00:09:04,760 --> 00:09:07,880 Speaker 1: and now I'm just not not the message, but you know, 157 00:09:07,920 --> 00:09:11,160 Speaker 1: the movement, the movement, And you know, it's interesting because 158 00:09:11,280 --> 00:09:14,360 Speaker 1: I think about my son and I'll explain why. You know, 159 00:09:14,720 --> 00:09:21,200 Speaker 1: I think for a long time the players probably you know, 160 00:09:21,280 --> 00:09:25,959 Speaker 1: they did they stayed silent inside, they were raging. And 161 00:09:26,200 --> 00:09:29,840 Speaker 1: I think about my son oftentimes because for a long 162 00:09:29,920 --> 00:09:32,760 Speaker 1: time my son would would do some do some things, 163 00:09:32,840 --> 00:09:35,040 Speaker 1: and you know, a lot of times. It was at school, 164 00:09:35,480 --> 00:09:38,840 Speaker 1: and what we came to find out was he was 165 00:09:38,880 --> 00:09:42,359 Speaker 1: trying to send everybody a message, and that was I'm frustrated. 166 00:09:43,120 --> 00:09:45,800 Speaker 1: I don't know that I can truly explain it, but 167 00:09:45,920 --> 00:09:48,640 Speaker 1: I'm really really frustrated, and I need you to at 168 00:09:48,720 --> 00:09:52,320 Speaker 1: least acknowledge the fact that you get the fact that 169 00:09:52,400 --> 00:09:57,280 Speaker 1: I'm frustrated, and at least just start asking the question of, Hey, 170 00:09:57,320 --> 00:10:00,720 Speaker 1: what's wrong? Is there something bothering you? Hey, come on 171 00:10:00,760 --> 00:10:03,240 Speaker 1: over here and talk to me about it. And as 172 00:10:03,240 --> 00:10:08,160 Speaker 1: my son has grown older, it's almost become that for him, 173 00:10:08,559 --> 00:10:12,360 Speaker 1: where he almost has that same messaging, Hey, Dad, I'm 174 00:10:12,360 --> 00:10:15,120 Speaker 1: really upset. I'm not totally sure why. Here's some of 175 00:10:15,160 --> 00:10:17,800 Speaker 1: the things that are bothering me. Can I at least 176 00:10:17,840 --> 00:10:21,679 Speaker 1: just talk to you? Will you? Will you listen to me? 177 00:10:22,120 --> 00:10:27,280 Speaker 1: Will Mom listen to me? And it doesn't solve everything 178 00:10:27,360 --> 00:10:33,800 Speaker 1: for him, and I often wondered, you know why? I 179 00:10:33,800 --> 00:10:37,280 Speaker 1: don't know, but he's just gotten better at communicating that 180 00:10:37,800 --> 00:10:41,199 Speaker 1: with us and letting us know. Well. It feels as 181 00:10:41,200 --> 00:10:45,000 Speaker 1: if that's what the players are doing. They're they're talking 182 00:10:45,000 --> 00:10:49,319 Speaker 1: about it, they're saying we're angry, but the message still 183 00:10:49,400 --> 00:10:53,480 Speaker 1: isn't getting through. So now they're taking it a step further. 184 00:10:53,800 --> 00:10:56,480 Speaker 1: They're escalating it. You know, at first, you know, my, 185 00:10:56,760 --> 00:10:59,840 Speaker 1: you know, Jack might um, you know, knock over a chair, 186 00:11:00,040 --> 00:11:02,160 Speaker 1: like okay, that got my attention. But no, you know, 187 00:11:02,200 --> 00:11:04,400 Speaker 1: he knocked over a chair, you know, not a not 188 00:11:04,440 --> 00:11:08,600 Speaker 1: a big deal, um. But then you know he picked up, 189 00:11:08,840 --> 00:11:11,400 Speaker 1: you know, a punching bag that had a fifty pound 190 00:11:11,440 --> 00:11:13,720 Speaker 1: water base, and he threw it one time because he 191 00:11:13,760 --> 00:11:16,000 Speaker 1: was really upset and the water went all over the place. 192 00:11:16,720 --> 00:11:19,160 Speaker 1: And you think you think that got my attention, like 193 00:11:19,920 --> 00:11:22,560 Speaker 1: it got my attention because once I was upset about 194 00:11:22,600 --> 00:11:25,720 Speaker 1: the water going everywhere and I stopped. I realized he 195 00:11:25,800 --> 00:11:29,319 Speaker 1: must be in such pain or such anger or something's 196 00:11:29,360 --> 00:11:32,480 Speaker 1: going on to frustrate him. And he's just trying to 197 00:11:32,520 --> 00:11:36,960 Speaker 1: tell me, Dad, it isn't right. Something's not right. I'm 198 00:11:37,120 --> 00:11:41,240 Speaker 1: unhappy listen to me. And I feel like that's what 199 00:11:41,240 --> 00:11:44,160 Speaker 1: the players are doing, is to just say, hey, if 200 00:11:44,160 --> 00:11:47,400 Speaker 1: we keep playing basketball, I mean, and Mark, I'll be honest, 201 00:11:47,400 --> 00:11:50,520 Speaker 1: the basketball has been phenomenal. I watched the Jazz and 202 00:11:50,559 --> 00:11:54,079 Speaker 1: the Nuggets play last night, and Jamaal Murray was unbelievable. 203 00:11:54,080 --> 00:11:58,680 Speaker 1: I could not take my eye I I've enjoyed good. 204 00:11:58,920 --> 00:12:01,240 Speaker 1: It was so good. And you know what, when the 205 00:12:01,280 --> 00:12:03,720 Speaker 1: Bucks played the Magic tonight, would have played him today, 206 00:12:03,760 --> 00:12:06,280 Speaker 1: it would have been phenomenal and we would have talked 207 00:12:06,280 --> 00:12:09,400 Speaker 1: about there there. We would have talked about their great 208 00:12:09,400 --> 00:12:12,480 Speaker 1: talent and what a great game it was and what happened. Um, 209 00:12:12,640 --> 00:12:14,440 Speaker 1: you know, we would have talked all day, you know 210 00:12:14,559 --> 00:12:18,280 Speaker 1: tomorrow with Sean and Seth and John and Landry and 211 00:12:18,600 --> 00:12:22,000 Speaker 1: Wade and Show or Claim if he's back. They would 212 00:12:22,080 --> 00:12:25,160 Speaker 1: talk about the greatness of the Rockets shooting threes and 213 00:12:25,240 --> 00:12:28,480 Speaker 1: doing all those things. But it's but it's the players said, 214 00:12:28,800 --> 00:12:32,640 Speaker 1: listen to our message. Listen to what we are now saying, 215 00:12:32,640 --> 00:12:36,360 Speaker 1: because we're now saying it louder with our actions, and 216 00:12:36,440 --> 00:12:42,360 Speaker 1: to me, maybe that maybe it doesn't get instant. You know, 217 00:12:42,400 --> 00:12:45,160 Speaker 1: there's not gonna be well, you know overnight. The cops 218 00:12:45,200 --> 00:12:47,560 Speaker 1: aren't gonna you know, that cop that shot Jacob Blake 219 00:12:47,640 --> 00:12:50,040 Speaker 1: isn't gonna put in jail. But the players are at 220 00:12:50,160 --> 00:12:54,800 Speaker 1: least getting their message out there. And Mark I will 221 00:12:54,920 --> 00:12:58,800 Speaker 1: forever the day that Kenny came in to do his 222 00:12:58,880 --> 00:13:02,360 Speaker 1: interview the other day, and we've been around Kenny, We've 223 00:13:02,360 --> 00:13:05,880 Speaker 1: seen Kenny. He's always got a smile. He's just you know, 224 00:13:06,000 --> 00:13:08,320 Speaker 1: he's not the most outgoing guy in the world, but 225 00:13:08,320 --> 00:13:10,760 Speaker 1: he's always got a smile for everybody. He always just 226 00:13:10,840 --> 00:13:14,880 Speaker 1: hate everybody. He's a little bit soft spoken. But when 227 00:13:14,920 --> 00:13:16,920 Speaker 1: he sat in that chair Mark to do the interview, 228 00:13:16,960 --> 00:13:19,400 Speaker 1: I saw him take this big, deep breath and I knew. 229 00:13:19,559 --> 00:13:24,800 Speaker 1: I knew that he was really in pain because the 230 00:13:24,880 --> 00:13:28,720 Speaker 1: movement means a lot to him. And he watched another 231 00:13:28,920 --> 00:13:32,199 Speaker 1: person of color gunned down by the police, and I 232 00:13:32,280 --> 00:13:35,760 Speaker 1: just saw I stopped what I usually do my observations, 233 00:13:35,760 --> 00:13:38,160 Speaker 1: Harris Hits. As those guys are talking, I just listen, 234 00:13:38,360 --> 00:13:40,240 Speaker 1: and I just watched him and you could just see 235 00:13:40,240 --> 00:13:43,560 Speaker 1: it on his face, in his body language. I mean, Mark, 236 00:13:44,920 --> 00:13:47,600 Speaker 1: he was sad. He really was sad. And it just 237 00:13:47,760 --> 00:13:51,520 Speaker 1: reminded me of what the players in the NBA must 238 00:13:51,520 --> 00:13:54,440 Speaker 1: be going through. And he talked about Kenny, did do 239 00:13:54,480 --> 00:13:58,160 Speaker 1: I practice today? Do I practice because I don't. I 240 00:13:58,160 --> 00:14:02,199 Speaker 1: don't feel it and the pain is just so heavy, 241 00:14:02,400 --> 00:14:04,560 Speaker 1: And he said he talked, he talked to his teammates 242 00:14:04,600 --> 00:14:08,280 Speaker 1: here and they said, man, we feel for you, and 243 00:14:08,320 --> 00:14:10,600 Speaker 1: whatever you do, you do and he said he felt 244 00:14:10,600 --> 00:14:13,000 Speaker 1: the support from his teammates that he needed to be 245 00:14:13,120 --> 00:14:16,120 Speaker 1: there for them, and he was. But sitting and listening 246 00:14:16,120 --> 00:14:21,360 Speaker 1: to him carry that message forward, I understood more why 247 00:14:21,400 --> 00:14:24,240 Speaker 1: the Bucks and the NBA and the Brewers and the 248 00:14:24,320 --> 00:14:29,000 Speaker 1: Reds made the decisions that they did today to not play. Yeah, 249 00:14:29,160 --> 00:14:31,040 Speaker 1: and I think that a lot of people listening now 250 00:14:31,160 --> 00:14:33,960 Speaker 1: have a lot of different opinions. Okay, opinions vary. To 251 00:14:34,080 --> 00:14:38,520 Speaker 1: quote Patrick Swayzi and Rhadhouse, opinions vary. There's so many 252 00:14:38,560 --> 00:14:41,160 Speaker 1: great lines in that one like pain don't hurt, but 253 00:14:41,240 --> 00:14:44,560 Speaker 1: it does anyway. Opinions vary. So opinions vary on what 254 00:14:44,560 --> 00:14:48,480 Speaker 1: we're discussing right now. And I totally understand that opinions vary. 255 00:14:48,880 --> 00:14:52,320 Speaker 1: But here's the thing pain is. I mean the feelings. 256 00:14:53,080 --> 00:14:56,640 Speaker 1: Feelings are there. I mean clearly, like the NBA players 257 00:14:56,680 --> 00:14:59,840 Speaker 1: wouldn't be doing this if they didn't feel strongly about it. 258 00:15:00,040 --> 00:15:04,160 Speaker 1: They have. They have decided to not play playoff games. 259 00:15:04,440 --> 00:15:08,120 Speaker 1: Are you serious? Yes, they have because it hurts them 260 00:15:08,160 --> 00:15:11,520 Speaker 1: that much. So no matter what your opinions are, you 261 00:15:11,600 --> 00:15:14,480 Speaker 1: got to acknowledge that and then get into it a 262 00:15:14,520 --> 00:15:17,600 Speaker 1: little bit on what can be done. And look, I 263 00:15:17,680 --> 00:15:19,840 Speaker 1: know it's complex. I know, it's like you said, it's 264 00:15:19,880 --> 00:15:21,720 Speaker 1: not a quick fix. It's not something you just say, 265 00:15:21,720 --> 00:15:24,280 Speaker 1: all right, let's just do this. You know, people were 266 00:15:24,480 --> 00:15:27,960 Speaker 1: talking about Muhammad Ali today on Twitter and yeah, this 267 00:15:28,040 --> 00:15:30,800 Speaker 1: is a very different deal, you know. And and Ali. 268 00:15:31,160 --> 00:15:34,920 Speaker 1: I mean, there are some tremendous videos, well films actually 269 00:15:34,920 --> 00:15:38,440 Speaker 1: from back then, but footage if you will, of Ali 270 00:15:38,720 --> 00:15:41,000 Speaker 1: and the support he got, you know, when he's with 271 00:15:41,120 --> 00:15:45,600 Speaker 1: Jim Brown and Bill Russell and who was lou Alcindo 272 00:15:45,680 --> 00:15:51,640 Speaker 1: there too. Yeah, and you know, and Ali, Ali sacrificed 273 00:15:51,760 --> 00:15:54,600 Speaker 1: five years of his career because he was a conscientious 274 00:15:54,600 --> 00:15:57,120 Speaker 1: subjector did not want to fight in the Vietnam War 275 00:15:57,840 --> 00:15:59,960 Speaker 1: and a war that he didn't believe. He didn't want 276 00:15:59,960 --> 00:16:01,520 Speaker 1: to fight at all. He wasn't going to pick up 277 00:16:01,560 --> 00:16:04,720 Speaker 1: a gun and shoot anybody. So you know, I know 278 00:16:04,840 --> 00:16:07,400 Speaker 1: people thought, well, box are tough guy. It's a very 279 00:16:07,400 --> 00:16:09,640 Speaker 1: different thing, right, And he didn't want to do it, 280 00:16:09,920 --> 00:16:12,800 Speaker 1: and he sacrificed. Can you imagine Ali with those five 281 00:16:12,880 --> 00:16:16,880 Speaker 1: years of fights on top of his already unbelievable career, 282 00:16:17,200 --> 00:16:21,040 Speaker 1: I mean, sports wise, this was a monumental story and 283 00:16:21,440 --> 00:16:27,200 Speaker 1: he was vilified, vilified for this. You're not gonna go fight. 284 00:16:27,320 --> 00:16:29,840 Speaker 1: You've been drafted. Now, at the time, the Vietnam War 285 00:16:29,920 --> 00:16:32,720 Speaker 1: was a divisive issue, but later on it's when we 286 00:16:32,800 --> 00:16:36,080 Speaker 1: really learned that, you know, that was a you weren't 287 00:16:36,120 --> 00:16:38,320 Speaker 1: going to win that one. You know, that was that 288 00:16:38,440 --> 00:16:41,920 Speaker 1: was unwinnable. And and plenty of stuff has come out. 289 00:16:41,960 --> 00:16:44,440 Speaker 1: I don't need to recap that for you. Yeah, so 290 00:16:45,280 --> 00:16:49,000 Speaker 1: you know Ali's so beloved now everybody loves Ali, right, 291 00:16:49,120 --> 00:16:52,200 Speaker 1: but at the time they hated him. Not they meaning everybody, 292 00:16:52,200 --> 00:16:54,720 Speaker 1: but a lot of people, I think the majority of Americans. 293 00:16:55,120 --> 00:16:58,440 Speaker 1: And you know, it shows you how history changes things. 294 00:16:58,480 --> 00:17:01,080 Speaker 1: So you know, what what is history going to say 295 00:17:01,080 --> 00:17:03,720 Speaker 1: about this? I really don't know, Johnny, I don't know. 296 00:17:03,800 --> 00:17:06,480 Speaker 1: And there are a lot of things that can and 297 00:17:06,600 --> 00:17:09,399 Speaker 1: should be done. I don't have the answers. I am 298 00:17:09,440 --> 00:17:12,040 Speaker 1: not an expert at this stuff. I think it's really 299 00:17:12,080 --> 00:17:13,959 Speaker 1: difficult to be able to be a police officer, and 300 00:17:14,000 --> 00:17:16,600 Speaker 1: I think it's really unbelievably difficult to be a black 301 00:17:16,600 --> 00:17:22,560 Speaker 1: American when you're singled out. Okay, now, you know, and 302 00:17:22,600 --> 00:17:25,560 Speaker 1: again I don't want to get into all the esoterics esoterics, 303 00:17:25,560 --> 00:17:27,960 Speaker 1: but all the specifics here. Of course, you know, at 304 00:17:28,000 --> 00:17:31,680 Speaker 1: the point of that meeting point between police and people. 305 00:17:31,680 --> 00:17:35,520 Speaker 1: They are trying to apprehend things happen. And you know, 306 00:17:35,600 --> 00:17:40,919 Speaker 1: ideally we wouldn't have unnecessary murder. I mean as opposed 307 00:17:40,920 --> 00:17:43,600 Speaker 1: to necessary murder. I mean ideally that. But it's so 308 00:17:43,680 --> 00:17:46,400 Speaker 1: much larger than that really, with what the players are 309 00:17:46,400 --> 00:17:48,680 Speaker 1: talking about. And again, I don't know what's going to 310 00:17:48,720 --> 00:17:50,960 Speaker 1: happen as a result of this. And I'm one, you know, 311 00:17:51,040 --> 00:17:53,200 Speaker 1: NFL players are tweeting about it. I'm wondering if there's 312 00:17:53,240 --> 00:17:56,920 Speaker 1: gonna be any response or any more response from the NFL. 313 00:17:57,000 --> 00:17:59,840 Speaker 1: I hope the NBA is a productive meeting tonight. And again, 314 00:17:59,880 --> 00:18:01,679 Speaker 1: I know, this is a sports show, this is a 315 00:18:01,720 --> 00:18:04,560 Speaker 1: Texan show, It's a football show. But this is one 316 00:18:04,560 --> 00:18:07,160 Speaker 1: of the biggest stories, as big as this year has 317 00:18:07,200 --> 00:18:12,560 Speaker 1: been in sports stories, stories outside the playing surfaces and 318 00:18:12,640 --> 00:18:16,680 Speaker 1: outside the games affecting the games. This is another one, man, 319 00:18:16,760 --> 00:18:19,920 Speaker 1: this is a huge one here today. As playoff games 320 00:18:19,960 --> 00:18:24,160 Speaker 1: have been missed, boycotted by the actual athletes, it has 321 00:18:24,200 --> 00:18:28,320 Speaker 1: to be acknowledged. I've never seen anything like it, you know, Mark, 322 00:18:28,400 --> 00:18:33,679 Speaker 1: It's interesting. I when I was, when I was growing up, 323 00:18:34,480 --> 00:18:37,600 Speaker 1: and you know, go, you know, taking my dad taught 324 00:18:37,640 --> 00:18:40,960 Speaker 1: my dad taught history classes, and when I was going 325 00:18:41,000 --> 00:18:43,840 Speaker 1: through high school, he was teaching American history. And I 326 00:18:43,840 --> 00:18:46,760 Speaker 1: remember when we got we got to eleventh grade, that's 327 00:18:46,760 --> 00:18:49,199 Speaker 1: when we took American history. Luckily I didn't have him, 328 00:18:49,240 --> 00:18:52,240 Speaker 1: because that would have been just a nightmare to have 329 00:18:52,400 --> 00:18:55,159 Speaker 1: my dad as my teacher. Even though my dad was 330 00:18:55,200 --> 00:18:57,000 Speaker 1: one way of a teacher, I just didn't want to 331 00:18:57,080 --> 00:19:03,119 Speaker 1: be the same classroom as him. But I one of 332 00:19:03,160 --> 00:19:08,040 Speaker 1: my favorite periods to study was the sixties because it 333 00:19:08,119 --> 00:19:11,560 Speaker 1: was so intriguing to me, like how did how did 334 00:19:13,000 --> 00:19:16,280 Speaker 1: why did why did America sort of make this change 335 00:19:16,280 --> 00:19:18,720 Speaker 1: in the sixties? What was it all about? What? What 336 00:19:18,840 --> 00:19:21,199 Speaker 1: were the uprising? What was the uprising about? What was 337 00:19:21,520 --> 00:19:24,000 Speaker 1: what happened in watts In in the mid sixties? What 338 00:19:24,200 --> 00:19:27,440 Speaker 1: was going on in Detroit? Uh in the in the 339 00:19:27,560 --> 00:19:31,720 Speaker 1: late sixties and this all happened? Yeah, I mean it 340 00:19:31,840 --> 00:19:35,040 Speaker 1: was like what was it? It was? It was? It 341 00:19:35,080 --> 00:19:39,840 Speaker 1: was just such a compelling era to to to learn 342 00:19:39,920 --> 00:19:42,159 Speaker 1: the history of. And I would I would pick my 343 00:19:42,240 --> 00:19:46,719 Speaker 1: dad's brain about it. Um, you know, why why was that? 344 00:19:46,800 --> 00:19:50,879 Speaker 1: Because he was born about forty five minutes from Chicago, 345 00:19:51,200 --> 00:19:56,200 Speaker 1: and obviously Chicago had its issues during the sixties as well. Um, 346 00:19:56,280 --> 00:19:58,959 Speaker 1: you know, one of the I think it was Democratic Convention. 347 00:19:58,960 --> 00:20:00,840 Speaker 1: I think that was in sixty I mean, it just 348 00:20:00,960 --> 00:20:04,440 Speaker 1: was such a compelling time to study. I can only 349 00:20:04,440 --> 00:20:08,199 Speaker 1: imagine forty years from now when they teach American history, 350 00:20:08,600 --> 00:20:11,560 Speaker 1: what are they gonna teach people about this particular what 351 00:20:11,640 --> 00:20:13,480 Speaker 1: are they gonna what are they gonna teach the young 352 00:20:13,520 --> 00:20:18,080 Speaker 1: people about this particular spring and summer. I mean, if 353 00:20:18,080 --> 00:20:21,040 Speaker 1: you I mean, if you go back to you know, 354 00:20:21,160 --> 00:20:24,720 Speaker 1: just just go back to March and COVID hits, and 355 00:20:24,720 --> 00:20:28,800 Speaker 1: then the sort of political I don't know, making that 356 00:20:28,920 --> 00:20:32,600 Speaker 1: political in some sense, in some respect, and then we have, 357 00:20:33,280 --> 00:20:37,119 Speaker 1: you know, the uprisings, social injustice uprisings as we should have, 358 00:20:37,160 --> 00:20:39,639 Speaker 1: the protests in the city because you know, the George 359 00:20:39,640 --> 00:20:42,600 Speaker 1: Floyd murder. And then we get into you know, COVID 360 00:20:42,720 --> 00:20:45,840 Speaker 1: still not going away. We've got a presidential election coming up, 361 00:20:46,440 --> 00:20:49,120 Speaker 1: We've got the National Convention tonight, and they know, by 362 00:20:49,119 --> 00:20:51,560 Speaker 1: the way, in our area, we've got to worry about 363 00:20:51,600 --> 00:20:55,280 Speaker 1: one of the most catastrophic hurricanes coming through in hitting 364 00:20:55,280 --> 00:21:00,000 Speaker 1: our brothers in East Texas and in southwestern Louisiana. Oh yeah, 365 00:21:00,240 --> 00:21:03,639 Speaker 1: I mean it's I just I wonder what the history 366 00:21:03,680 --> 00:21:07,119 Speaker 1: books are going to teach our kids about this particular time, 367 00:21:07,600 --> 00:21:10,960 Speaker 1: because it's gonna sound I would think a lot like 368 00:21:11,040 --> 00:21:14,800 Speaker 1: what we were going through in the sixties, which is 369 00:21:14,880 --> 00:21:17,119 Speaker 1: kind of crazy to think about that we seemingly have 370 00:21:17,200 --> 00:21:18,920 Speaker 1: made a ton of progress and all at the same 371 00:21:18,960 --> 00:21:24,359 Speaker 1: time seemingly not not not made enough, or not made 372 00:21:25,000 --> 00:21:27,960 Speaker 1: any in some cases. I don't know, it's crazy, but 373 00:21:28,000 --> 00:21:31,280 Speaker 1: I wonder what my grandkids will be. Well I have grandkids. 374 00:21:31,440 --> 00:21:33,360 Speaker 1: I don't know. If I have grandkids, what are they 375 00:21:33,359 --> 00:21:35,480 Speaker 1: gonna study down the road and they look back to 376 00:21:35,560 --> 00:21:39,720 Speaker 1: this this year in particular, Well, they'll study on their holograms. Uh, 377 00:21:40,000 --> 00:21:44,359 Speaker 1: and the holograms will act out things that happen. I 378 00:21:44,400 --> 00:21:46,920 Speaker 1: don't I mean, I don't know how They're gonna just information. 379 00:21:47,080 --> 00:21:49,399 Speaker 1: You know, It'll be like, how do you look as 380 00:21:49,440 --> 00:21:52,840 Speaker 1: a hologram? Have you thought about that? Well? Can I like, 381 00:21:52,960 --> 00:21:55,280 Speaker 1: can I turn myself into Brad Pitt as a hologram 382 00:21:55,359 --> 00:21:58,720 Speaker 1: or something like that? I would imagine with good CGI 383 00:21:58,800 --> 00:22:01,880 Speaker 1: you can put your head on anybody's body. Yeah. See, 384 00:22:01,880 --> 00:22:03,720 Speaker 1: I could do a lot of different things with a hologram. 385 00:22:04,040 --> 00:22:06,879 Speaker 1: I might how about this, I'm going to download my 386 00:22:06,960 --> 00:22:10,879 Speaker 1: brain and then I'll just have a hologram. And look, 387 00:22:10,920 --> 00:22:13,440 Speaker 1: I believe that'll happen at some point. You'll be able 388 00:22:13,440 --> 00:22:16,040 Speaker 1: to download your brain into an iPad and then have 389 00:22:16,040 --> 00:22:18,240 Speaker 1: a hologram and you can still walk around and do stuff. 390 00:22:18,240 --> 00:22:20,480 Speaker 1: But it's not going to really learn the way a 391 00:22:20,600 --> 00:22:23,639 Speaker 1: human learns. You know, it'll be a facsimile. But you know, 392 00:22:23,880 --> 00:22:26,240 Speaker 1: I can hang around the house. But what about calling 393 00:22:26,280 --> 00:22:30,399 Speaker 1: Texans games imperpetuity? Oh yeah, I could. You're right, I 394 00:22:30,400 --> 00:22:33,640 Speaker 1: could do this because well, I mean, how does Madden 395 00:22:34,320 --> 00:22:38,160 Speaker 1: the Madden game get their voices calling that game? Yeah? 396 00:22:38,200 --> 00:22:42,240 Speaker 1: And with AI a facsimile of me and my voice 397 00:22:42,280 --> 00:22:44,679 Speaker 1: could could go on a long time job. You know, 398 00:22:45,000 --> 00:22:48,120 Speaker 1: you just program all that stuff in, I mean every situation. 399 00:22:48,119 --> 00:22:49,960 Speaker 1: It's funny you say that because as a play by 400 00:22:49,960 --> 00:22:53,200 Speaker 1: play guy, the way I've kind of practiced things, what, 401 00:22:53,440 --> 00:22:55,879 Speaker 1: especially in the early going of my career, is to 402 00:22:56,640 --> 00:23:01,280 Speaker 1: try to, you know, remember every situation, every situation you encounter, 403 00:23:01,560 --> 00:23:03,960 Speaker 1: it comes back up, maybe in a different way. You know, 404 00:23:04,000 --> 00:23:06,000 Speaker 1: the ball gets tipped a couple of times and ends 405 00:23:06,040 --> 00:23:07,840 Speaker 1: up in this guy's hands and that guy's hands, and 406 00:23:07,880 --> 00:23:09,840 Speaker 1: how did I call it that way? And you know, 407 00:23:09,920 --> 00:23:12,520 Speaker 1: there are certain things that occur and you learn from 408 00:23:12,560 --> 00:23:14,800 Speaker 1: them and you put them in your arsenal. So my 409 00:23:14,960 --> 00:23:17,080 Speaker 1: arsenal when I download my brain into an iPad, it's 410 00:23:17,080 --> 00:23:20,399 Speaker 1: gonna be pretty voluminous. I can actually live on forever 411 00:23:20,440 --> 00:23:23,280 Speaker 1: this way. So we both from the news of the 412 00:23:23,400 --> 00:23:26,960 Speaker 1: day into we're gonna become cyborgs. And that's just the 413 00:23:27,000 --> 00:23:29,959 Speaker 1: way it is in twenty twenty, all right, exactly right 414 00:23:30,000 --> 00:23:34,400 Speaker 1: it is. And it's been a pretty heavy, emotional, sort 415 00:23:34,400 --> 00:23:36,359 Speaker 1: of stressful start to the show. And I don't know, 416 00:23:36,680 --> 00:23:39,040 Speaker 1: Mark and I we didn't mean for that to happen, 417 00:23:39,200 --> 00:23:42,880 Speaker 1: but we'd like to think we can touch on worldly aspects, 418 00:23:42,960 --> 00:23:46,880 Speaker 1: especially ones that do touch our world, the NFL world, 419 00:23:46,920 --> 00:23:49,119 Speaker 1: and this one seemingly has I mean, the number of 420 00:23:49,160 --> 00:23:51,720 Speaker 1: players that have been tweeting about the Bucks. I'm just 421 00:23:51,760 --> 00:23:55,320 Speaker 1: looking at NFL dot com article. Kenny obviously has, Tie, Matthew, 422 00:23:55,600 --> 00:24:00,840 Speaker 1: Jamal Adams, the McCarthy Twins, Tyreek, Justin Jackson and Dez Bryant, 423 00:24:00,960 --> 00:24:03,600 Speaker 1: Johnathan Stewart, Cavan Fraser. I mean, you know, they have 424 00:24:03,720 --> 00:24:07,240 Speaker 1: been tweeting various things to the Milwaukee Bucks for the 425 00:24:07,280 --> 00:24:09,320 Speaker 1: stance that the Bucks took today, which led to the 426 00:24:09,440 --> 00:24:13,680 Speaker 1: NBA not playing any playoff games. But we'll get going. 427 00:24:13,720 --> 00:24:15,959 Speaker 1: We're gonna start talking some football. We're gonna do it 428 00:24:16,240 --> 00:24:19,639 Speaker 1: with a guy in the next segment who is hugely 429 00:24:19,720 --> 00:24:23,119 Speaker 1: important to this Texans team in twenty twenty and beyond. 430 00:24:23,160 --> 00:24:24,679 Speaker 1: He was a first round pick. In fact, he's the 431 00:24:24,680 --> 00:24:27,160 Speaker 1: only first round pick that we will have had from 432 00:24:27,280 --> 00:24:32,720 Speaker 1: years twenty eighteen through two twenty one, and that's Titus Howard. 433 00:24:33,160 --> 00:24:37,200 Speaker 1: And the man is good on the mic. So I'd 434 00:24:37,240 --> 00:24:39,320 Speaker 1: like for him to play as much football as humanly 435 00:24:39,359 --> 00:24:42,000 Speaker 1: possible because one day, if he comes looking for my job, 436 00:24:42,119 --> 00:24:44,840 Speaker 1: I may not have one because he is excellent. And 437 00:24:44,880 --> 00:24:48,280 Speaker 1: he sat down with dpcity and talked about training camp 438 00:24:48,280 --> 00:24:49,919 Speaker 1: and all that goes with it and what to expect 439 00:24:49,960 --> 00:24:51,919 Speaker 1: it at twenty twenty season. We will have that for 440 00:24:52,119 --> 00:24:57,639 Speaker 1: you next right here on Texans All Access.

John Harris and Mark Vanermer. 535 00:30:55,400 --> 00:30:58,840 Speaker 1: And just as we talked about throughout this show, the 536 00:30:58,880 --> 00:31:01,040 Speaker 1: one thing we have has been on all of our 537 00:31:01,080 --> 00:31:04,120 Speaker 1: minds in this area for a long time, and it 538 00:31:04,120 --> 00:31:08,200 Speaker 1: looks as if the Houston area may escape major damage 539 00:31:08,240 --> 00:31:10,920 Speaker 1: due to Hurricane Laura. But we know that our brethren 540 00:31:10,960 --> 00:31:15,080 Speaker 1: in East Texas and southwestern Louisiana are gonna get hit extremely, 541 00:31:15,120 --> 00:31:18,680 Speaker 1: extremely hard tonight. And so our thoughts are with all 542 00:31:18,720 --> 00:31:21,680 Speaker 1: of those Texans fans and all of those people. You 543 00:31:21,720 --> 00:31:24,680 Speaker 1: know what, even if they're Saints Cowboys fans, that they 544 00:31:24,760 --> 00:31:27,360 Speaker 1: will somehow, in some way, shape or form, Laura will 545 00:31:27,400 --> 00:31:31,440 Speaker 1: not have the impact that unfortunately we're assuming it's going 546 00:31:31,520 --> 00:31:33,800 Speaker 1: to have. But our thoughts are with all of them. 547 00:31:33,840 --> 00:31:36,400 Speaker 1: There's no doubt with that. Okay, let's get back into 548 00:31:36,400 --> 00:31:39,600 Speaker 1: the show and a guy that joined the team last 549 00:31:39,680 --> 00:31:41,640 Speaker 1: year first round rookie and will be the only first 550 00:31:41,760 --> 00:31:44,480 Speaker 1: rounder from twenty eighteen through twenty twenty one and out 551 00:31:44,480 --> 00:31:46,600 Speaker 1: as tight as Howard. He made a major impact on 552 00:31:46,640 --> 00:31:48,719 Speaker 1: his team in eight games that he played, and he 553 00:31:48,760 --> 00:31:52,000 Speaker 1: will make a huge impact for this team for as 554 00:31:52,040 --> 00:31:54,719 Speaker 1: long as he is here. He has manned that right 555 00:31:54,760 --> 00:31:58,479 Speaker 1: tackle position and he is a future star both on 556 00:31:58,520 --> 00:32:01,080 Speaker 1: the field and off the field, especially when he gets 557 00:32:01,080 --> 00:32:03,680 Speaker 1: in front of the microphone and the camera. Deepcitu had 558 00:32:03,720 --> 00:32:06,640 Speaker 1: a chance to catch him in front of both the 559 00:32:06,680 --> 00:32:08,440 Speaker 1: camera to Mike, You're just gonna hear the mic part. 560 00:32:08,520 --> 00:32:12,160 Speaker 1: Here's Titus Howard Deepcitu in training camp year two. When 561 00:32:12,160 --> 00:32:14,640 Speaker 1: you think about where you were this time last year, 562 00:32:14,680 --> 00:32:18,320 Speaker 1: what do you remember most? I remember, you know, trying 563 00:32:18,320 --> 00:32:20,880 Speaker 1: to learn and most as I can being worried about 564 00:32:20,960 --> 00:32:23,360 Speaker 1: being hot because I was getting used to the Houston weather. 565 00:32:24,440 --> 00:32:26,000 Speaker 1: There's a lot of stuff going through my mind at 566 00:32:26,000 --> 00:32:27,520 Speaker 1: the time because I was trying to catch up with 567 00:32:27,560 --> 00:32:30,440 Speaker 1: all the other guys and did between that and this year, 568 00:32:30,480 --> 00:32:33,960 Speaker 1: you know, I'm settled in. I feel like I knew 569 00:32:34,000 --> 00:32:37,120 Speaker 1: a lot more, so I'm more patient. I feel like 570 00:32:37,160 --> 00:32:39,360 Speaker 1: I'm at home. So I feel pretty good going to 571 00:32:39,400 --> 00:32:42,440 Speaker 1: you two. Do you and Max Sharping ever sit back 572 00:32:42,480 --> 00:32:45,160 Speaker 1: and just talk about your rookie season. I mean, you 573 00:32:45,160 --> 00:32:46,840 Speaker 1: guys were just sort of thrown into the mix and 574 00:32:46,840 --> 00:32:49,200 Speaker 1: you both end up being starters on this offensive line. 575 00:32:49,200 --> 00:32:51,160 Speaker 1: But did you have a sort of welcome to the 576 00:32:51,240 --> 00:32:53,200 Speaker 1: NFL moment last year that you sort of look back 577 00:32:53,200 --> 00:32:56,680 Speaker 1: and think, yeah, we're definitely playing in the NFL now. Yeah, 578 00:32:56,720 --> 00:32:59,000 Speaker 1: we talked, We actually talk about a rookie season on 579 00:32:59,040 --> 00:33:00,920 Speaker 1: LIT because we I mean, we had a lot of 580 00:33:00,920 --> 00:33:04,520 Speaker 1: good moments and last season a lot of fun. You know, 581 00:33:04,640 --> 00:33:08,120 Speaker 1: I welcome to the NFL moments where I ain't know 582 00:33:08,240 --> 00:33:11,440 Speaker 1: starting a game before he did and this week after that, 583 00:33:11,560 --> 00:33:13,960 Speaker 1: and then moved me to tackle, you know, replacing me 584 00:33:14,000 --> 00:33:16,880 Speaker 1: at guard. And we looked at each other and it's like, yeah, 585 00:33:16,880 --> 00:33:18,680 Speaker 1: we gotta you know, we read it's this out of 586 00:33:18,680 --> 00:33:20,840 Speaker 1: time to take over, you know, to help his office. 587 00:33:20,880 --> 00:33:23,120 Speaker 1: Some line b the best it can be. And you know, 588 00:33:23,240 --> 00:33:25,520 Speaker 1: going looking back from that, you know, we made progress 589 00:33:25,600 --> 00:33:28,640 Speaker 1: last year and we're only looking to get better this year. Yeah, 590 00:33:28,680 --> 00:33:31,000 Speaker 1: everyone's talking about the chemistry that that old line has 591 00:33:31,000 --> 00:33:33,520 Speaker 1: had because the starting five of you are returning back 592 00:33:33,520 --> 00:33:36,000 Speaker 1: for a second year, something we haven't seen here with 593 00:33:36,040 --> 00:33:40,080 Speaker 1: the Texans for quite some time. When you when you 594 00:33:40,160 --> 00:33:42,480 Speaker 1: think about the chemistry that you've developed, I know, Deshaun 595 00:33:42,520 --> 00:33:45,200 Speaker 1: Watson said that this old line unit just sort of 596 00:33:45,240 --> 00:33:47,080 Speaker 1: moves as a group. You guys are so in sync 597 00:33:47,120 --> 00:33:50,040 Speaker 1: both on and off the field. What's been the key 598 00:33:50,080 --> 00:33:53,320 Speaker 1: to developing that chemistry to the point where you guys 599 00:33:53,360 --> 00:33:55,760 Speaker 1: are moving so much in sync right now that I 600 00:33:55,760 --> 00:33:57,680 Speaker 1: think it starts with alders that we got we have 601 00:33:57,960 --> 00:34:00,840 Speaker 1: in uh, Nick, you know, Laram and Zac. You know 602 00:34:00,920 --> 00:34:03,720 Speaker 1: those guys you know, look, you know they look always 603 00:34:03,720 --> 00:34:05,360 Speaker 1: look to help me and Max when we got to 604 00:34:05,440 --> 00:34:07,840 Speaker 1: they talk a lot, you know. So those guys have 605 00:34:07,920 --> 00:34:10,000 Speaker 1: been great vets for you know, us guys who come 606 00:34:10,080 --> 00:34:12,800 Speaker 1: into our second year and by us, you know, getting 607 00:34:12,840 --> 00:34:14,879 Speaker 1: being here for the second year and all of us 608 00:34:14,880 --> 00:34:17,600 Speaker 1: coming back. You know, that cameraship between us, you know, 609 00:34:17,680 --> 00:34:20,439 Speaker 1: it's it's natural now, you know. So we can only 610 00:34:20,480 --> 00:34:23,279 Speaker 1: you know, improve on where we started last year, and 611 00:34:23,320 --> 00:34:26,160 Speaker 1: I feel like we have something special coming. Well, You've 612 00:34:26,160 --> 00:34:28,960 Speaker 1: had a busy offseason yourself. A lot's changed for you 613 00:34:29,000 --> 00:34:32,320 Speaker 1: since last year.

You know. I've been consistently, 620 00:34:47,840 --> 00:34:49,880 Speaker 1: you know, still still going in training around trying to 621 00:34:50,280 --> 00:34:53,440 Speaker 1: you know, help myself prevent for having future injuries. But uh, 622 00:34:53,880 --> 00:34:56,040 Speaker 1: the all season was a grind. You know, waking up 623 00:34:56,719 --> 00:34:59,279 Speaker 1: every day. You know, everybody else can do whatever they 624 00:34:59,320 --> 00:35:01,160 Speaker 1: want to do and season, but I had to come 625 00:35:01,200 --> 00:35:03,359 Speaker 1: in every day and work because I know I had 626 00:35:03,360 --> 00:35:05,680 Speaker 1: to get back on the field versus you know, getting 627 00:35:05,719 --> 00:35:08,640 Speaker 1: ready for my win.

Then after the win, we 630 00:35:15,920 --> 00:35:18,760 Speaker 1: end up going on a honeymoon, went to Bali, stayed 631 00:35:18,800 --> 00:35:21,360 Speaker 1: in Bali for two weeks. Uh find out she was, 632 00:35:21,400 --> 00:35:23,680 Speaker 1: you know, praying day We're having a baby. So we 633 00:35:23,719 --> 00:35:26,640 Speaker 1: had to prepare for that. Also had to get back 634 00:35:26,640 --> 00:35:29,640 Speaker 1: in shape, you know, play to get ready to play football. 635 00:35:30,040 --> 00:35:33,200 Speaker 1: And I'll still rehabing it at the time.

So um, 657 00:36:26,200 --> 00:36:28,520 Speaker 1: I think this season can be a testament to how 658 00:36:28,520 --> 00:36:30,480 Speaker 1: hard all the players have worked just you know this 659 00:36:30,640 --> 00:36:33,239 Speaker 1: all season, this preseason, you know, to get ready for 660 00:36:33,280 --> 00:36:36,439 Speaker 1: the season. And for me, the decision, I mean it 661 00:36:36,520 --> 00:36:39,080 Speaker 1: was really too much. It wasn't really hard for me 662 00:36:39,120 --> 00:36:40,799 Speaker 1: because me and my wife, you know, we had been 663 00:36:40,840 --> 00:36:43,719 Speaker 1: talking about it the whole time, and by us communicating, 664 00:36:43,840 --> 00:36:46,320 Speaker 1: she knowing my love for football and my love for 665 00:36:46,440 --> 00:36:49,640 Speaker 1: my family, it was easy for us to make that decision. 666 00:36:50,120 --> 00:36:54,359 Speaker 1: Knowing that the Tessions had made all the stuff they 667 00:36:54,400 --> 00:36:56,480 Speaker 1: did to make the debate the building safe because I 668 00:36:56,520 --> 00:36:58,200 Speaker 1: was in here every day, so I was seeing all 669 00:36:58,239 --> 00:37:01,440 Speaker 1: the change going on, you know, making a building you 670 00:37:01,480 --> 00:37:03,400 Speaker 1: know better for us, you know, be able to quarant 671 00:37:03,719 --> 00:37:06,560 Speaker 1: not quarantine, but stay socially distance from each other and 672 00:37:06,600 --> 00:37:10,200 Speaker 1: stay clean. So after me and her seeing all that stuff, 673 00:37:10,239 --> 00:37:12,960 Speaker 1: I feel comfortable coming in every day. So deceiving me 674 00:37:13,000 --> 00:37:16,080 Speaker 1: come pay football easy because my teammates like my family too, 675 00:37:16,360 --> 00:37:18,080 Speaker 1: and I don't want to let them down by sitting now. 676 00:37:18,920 --> 00:37:21,239 Speaker 1: And you have such a big challenge coming up in 677 00:37:21,280 --> 00:37:23,920 Speaker 1: Week one playing at Kansas City. You're a little bit 678 00:37:23,960 --> 00:37:26,840 Speaker 1: familiar with this team. You played their last year, obviously 679 00:37:26,880 --> 00:37:29,600 Speaker 1: not in the playoffs that you were already on injured reserve, 680 00:37:29,680 --> 00:37:32,920 Speaker 1: but you've prepared for this team before, so you know 681 00:37:32,960 --> 00:37:34,879 Speaker 1: what is that like? Facing a team that you've seen 682 00:37:34,960 --> 00:37:36,880 Speaker 1: for doesn't make a little bit easier. They are the 683 00:37:36,880 --> 00:37:39,200 Speaker 1: Super Bowl defending champs, so it is a big challenge. 684 00:37:39,239 --> 00:37:41,560 Speaker 1: But what sort of advice can you give maybe some 685 00:37:41,600 --> 00:37:44,000 Speaker 1: of the younger guys on the team that haven't had 686 00:37:44,040 --> 00:37:46,320 Speaker 1: the luxury of a preseason game or seeing some of 687 00:37:46,360 --> 00:37:49,600 Speaker 1: the NFL action yet. Probably the biggest thing is I 688 00:37:49,640 --> 00:37:52,719 Speaker 1: mean studio opponents, because every game is not the same, 689 00:37:52,760 --> 00:37:55,399 Speaker 1: every outcome is not the same. We beat Kansas Ceay 690 00:37:55,480 --> 00:37:57,640 Speaker 1: early on in the season, play them later in the 691 00:37:57,680 --> 00:38:01,520 Speaker 1: playoffs twenty four Oh, and I'm losing that game. So 692 00:38:01,560 --> 00:38:03,600 Speaker 1: the game is never old when you think it is. 693 00:38:03,960 --> 00:38:05,719 Speaker 1: With the type of players is in this league. And 694 00:38:05,800 --> 00:38:08,560 Speaker 1: my big thing year is now is to study more. 695 00:38:08,640 --> 00:38:11,799 Speaker 1: Study the team, study the players on going against try 696 00:38:11,840 --> 00:38:13,719 Speaker 1: to learn as much as I can so when I'm 697 00:38:13,760 --> 00:38:15,160 Speaker 1: out there on the field and I see just the 698 00:38:15,239 --> 00:38:18,000 Speaker 1: slightest thing, I already know what I can do to 699 00:38:18,120 --> 00:38:21,279 Speaker 1: counter there, you know. So that's my biggest point of 700 00:38:21,400 --> 00:38:23,359 Speaker 1: like jumping from you know, a rookie to the second 701 00:38:23,480 --> 00:38:26,759 Speaker 1: year player is just studying film. And so each and 702 00:38:26,800 --> 00:38:29,440 Speaker 1: every day at the Prentice, I stayed with LT and 703 00:38:29,480 --> 00:38:32,280 Speaker 1: a couple other guys and we watched as your films, 704 00:38:32,320 --> 00:38:34,799 Speaker 1: you know, just to help me, you know, tune in too, 705 00:38:34,800 --> 00:38:37,520 Speaker 1: like what can make me a better player this year? Yeah? 706 00:38:37,520 --> 00:38:40,200 Speaker 1: And you were named to the All Pro Football Writers 707 00:38:40,200 --> 00:38:43,600 Speaker 1: of America All Rookie Team last year. So heading into 708 00:38:43,680 --> 00:38:45,719 Speaker 1: year two, is that really what you want to get 709 00:38:45,760 --> 00:38:48,480 Speaker 1: better at is just your preparation of the game. I 710 00:38:48,480 --> 00:38:51,640 Speaker 1: know you've talked about past protection as well and run blocking. 711 00:38:51,680 --> 00:38:53,239 Speaker 1: There's so much that you you're asked to do on 712 00:38:53,280 --> 00:38:55,440 Speaker 1: the field, But is there any one particular area that 713 00:38:55,680 --> 00:38:57,880 Speaker 1: you really want to get better at or something that 714 00:38:57,920 --> 00:38:59,600 Speaker 1: you felt that you did well last year that you 715 00:38:59,600 --> 00:39:02,520 Speaker 1: could build fun Yeah, I feel like I did pretty 716 00:39:02,520 --> 00:39:04,440 Speaker 1: good in the run. I feel like I did okay 717 00:39:04,480 --> 00:39:06,239 Speaker 1: in the past protection. But I feel like I want 718 00:39:06,239 --> 00:39:08,560 Speaker 1: to get better in all of them. I want to 719 00:39:08,600 --> 00:39:12,960 Speaker 1: become a complete player that you can I can pass, 720 00:39:13,000 --> 00:39:15,799 Speaker 1: protect all day, run the ball behind me. I want 721 00:39:15,840 --> 00:39:17,399 Speaker 1: to be able to do it all. And I just 722 00:39:17,880 --> 00:39:20,360 Speaker 1: I'm not, you know, I don't want to just be, 723 00:39:20,480 --> 00:39:22,040 Speaker 1: you know, an average player. I want to be one 724 00:39:22,040 --> 00:39:24,600 Speaker 1: of the best. So my goal is to you know, 725 00:39:25,040 --> 00:39:27,520 Speaker 1: work on my past and work on a run and 726 00:39:27,640 --> 00:39:31,759 Speaker 1: also study more, just you know, be a you know, 727 00:39:31,800 --> 00:39:34,040 Speaker 1: a student of the game. I just want to become 728 00:39:34,040 --> 00:39:36,719 Speaker 1: one of the best. You know, Chacles is to play. 729 00:39:36,800 --> 00:39:39,040 Speaker 1: So that's my goal and that's gonna shoot forward this 730 00:39:39,120 --> 00:39:41,360 Speaker 1: season to be one of the best and help my 731 00:39:41,400 --> 00:39:44,040 Speaker 1: team be the best team we can be. Well, I 732 00:39:44,080 --> 00:39:47,200 Speaker 1: asked your teammate Nick Martin to do a word association 733 00:39:47,320 --> 00:39:49,640 Speaker 1: with me, and when we got to your name.

You know, usually the last 871 00:47:53,440 --> 00:47:56,120 Speaker 1: day of our two hour block in the morning that 872 00:47:56,200 --> 00:47:58,839 Speaker 1: we occupy for ten consecutive business days of training camp, 873 00:47:59,320 --> 00:48:02,520 Speaker 1: usually last show is we're getting on a plane to 874 00:48:02,520 --> 00:48:05,600 Speaker 1: go to the first preseason game, or you know, we're 875 00:48:05,640 --> 00:48:08,120 Speaker 1: at home for the first preseason game or whatever. But 876 00:48:08,360 --> 00:48:10,160 Speaker 1: not so this year. You know, we have the scrimmage 877 00:48:10,160 --> 00:48:13,560 Speaker 1: tomorrow night, weather permitting. But yeah, it feels a little 878 00:48:13,640 --> 00:48:15,760 Speaker 1: sad because we're putting it all down for two weeks. 879 00:48:16,320 --> 00:48:18,279 Speaker 1: We'll still be on in the evening. But I've really 880 00:48:18,400 --> 00:48:20,319 Speaker 1: enjoyed these shows with you. I always do, my friend, 881 00:48:20,360 --> 00:48:24,160 Speaker 1: and it's fun, and it just means football's right here, 882 00:48:24,239 --> 00:48:26,000 Speaker 1: you know, it's right in the crosshairs, and I just 883 00:48:26,160 --> 00:48:29,040 Speaker 1: can't wait till we get to the games two weeks 884 00:48:29,160 --> 00:48:32,640 Speaker 1: from tomorrow. I used to listen to Training Camp a 885 00:48:32,640 --> 00:48:34,960 Speaker 1: live before I jumped on with you, and I was like, man, 886 00:48:35,480 --> 00:48:37,480 Speaker 1: that would be so much fun. And now this is 887 00:48:37,560 --> 00:48:40,040 Speaker 1: my seventh season at doing it, and it's exactly what 888 00:48:40,160 --> 00:48:44,120 Speaker 1: I thought it was, and then some mark, this day 889 00:48:44,280 --> 00:48:50,719 Speaker 1: has just been it's almost indescribable. Well about thirty minutes ago, 890 00:48:50,840 --> 00:48:53,000 Speaker 1: maybe a little bit longer ago, but been an hour ago. 891 00:48:53,760 --> 00:48:58,040 Speaker 1: I saw this pop up from Jim Kramer and he's 892 00:48:58,640 --> 00:49:01,520 Speaker 1: you mean mad money or what? Yeah, mad money? And 893 00:49:01,600 --> 00:49:04,279 Speaker 1: I was like, all right, I saw this. I went okay, 894 00:49:04,320 --> 00:49:07,720 Speaker 1: don't do this because don't get my hopes about anything 895 00:49:07,840 --> 00:49:12,640 Speaker 1: right now. And he said, bingo, Abbott with the game changer, 896 00:49:12,719 --> 00:49:17,080 Speaker 1: a fifteen minute test ready next week five dollars. I 897 00:49:17,280 --> 00:49:20,200 Speaker 1: think it's the real deal because it's ninety eight percent 898 00:49:20,280 --> 00:49:23,040 Speaker 1: accurate and it is ready and scale by the millions. 899 00:49:23,239 --> 00:49:26,239 Speaker 1: And then he said think pregnancy test and he said 900 00:49:26,320 --> 00:49:28,760 Speaker 1: time to travel again, question mark, Because I'm like, okay, 901 00:49:28,880 --> 00:49:31,880 Speaker 1: he is he just is this just mad money? Like hey, 902 00:49:31,960 --> 00:49:33,480 Speaker 1: this is a stock I got for you know, he's 903 00:49:33,480 --> 00:49:35,920 Speaker 1: just you know, doing his Jim crazy thing. Well then 904 00:49:36,000 --> 00:49:38,440 Speaker 1: I saw an article that came out from Bloomberg and 905 00:49:39,640 --> 00:49:42,359 Speaker 1: it said exactly what he said. There is a now 906 00:49:42,480 --> 00:49:47,000 Speaker 1: a new fifteen minute COVID test from Abbott Laboratories, priced 907 00:49:47,040 --> 00:49:50,719 Speaker 1: at just five dollars. Abbott will start shipping the test 908 00:49:50,800 --> 00:49:54,440 Speaker 1: within two weeks and intends to manufacture fifty million tests 909 00:49:54,760 --> 00:49:58,319 Speaker 1: a month by the end of October. The aim meet 910 00:49:58,360 --> 00:50:01,000 Speaker 1: a surgeon demand for Americans seek to return to in 911 00:50:01,120 --> 00:50:06,920 Speaker 1: person school rooms and work. I Mark, I have no 912 00:50:07,080 --> 00:50:10,400 Speaker 1: idea good, bad, or otherwise on this. I mean, I 913 00:50:10,560 --> 00:50:13,040 Speaker 1: just have tried to follow whatever protocols have come our way. 914 00:50:13,560 --> 00:50:16,560 Speaker 1: But apparently this thing is the actual productor calling it 915 00:50:16,719 --> 00:50:21,080 Speaker 1: is banax b I nax. Now it's ninety seven point 916 00:50:21,160 --> 00:50:24,920 Speaker 1: one percent sensitive and ninety eight point five percent specific. 917 00:50:25,320 --> 00:50:28,160 Speaker 1: I don't know if game changer is the right word. 918 00:50:28,239 --> 00:50:30,759 Speaker 1: I guess I'll just kind of, you know, there's been 919 00:50:30,800 --> 00:50:33,239 Speaker 1: so much talk about certain things that are out there 920 00:50:34,200 --> 00:50:35,920 Speaker 1: or why not there? Why aren't they out there? Are 921 00:50:35,960 --> 00:50:37,800 Speaker 1: we gonna get a vaccine? And we're gonna get so 922 00:50:37,880 --> 00:50:39,600 Speaker 1: I don't know totally how to feel about this, but 923 00:50:40,480 --> 00:50:42,960 Speaker 1: I sort of, I mean, just people that are tweeting 924 00:50:42,960 --> 00:50:46,960 Speaker 1: about are like, Hey, is this it? I mean, I'm 925 00:50:47,000 --> 00:50:48,920 Speaker 1: kind of the same thing, like is this it? Is 926 00:50:48,960 --> 00:50:50,840 Speaker 1: this the one? Is this what we've been looking for, 927 00:50:51,160 --> 00:50:54,640 Speaker 1: at least from a testing perspective? Is this the thing 928 00:50:54,760 --> 00:50:57,440 Speaker 1: we're looking for? I don't know, but it kind of 929 00:50:57,480 --> 00:50:59,680 Speaker 1: got me encouraged, especially on a day like today mark 930 00:50:59,680 --> 00:51:02,160 Speaker 1: where there's not a ton of encouraging stuff. It just 931 00:51:02,200 --> 00:51:05,400 Speaker 1: seemed it would come out today that we'd find information 932 00:51:05,480 --> 00:51:07,200 Speaker 1: that maybe there's a test that we could be looking 933 00:51:07,239 --> 00:51:09,200 Speaker 1: at in the future, right And I think, you know, 934 00:51:09,239 --> 00:51:11,560 Speaker 1: when I said yes, I was talking about yes from 935 00:51:11,920 --> 00:51:15,960 Speaker 1: a testing standpoint. This could be it obviously vaccine or 936 00:51:16,040 --> 00:51:18,120 Speaker 1: some other you know. Can you imagine if we find out, 937 00:51:18,160 --> 00:51:20,400 Speaker 1: you know, if you have jeff creamy peanut butter, the 938 00:51:20,560 --> 00:51:22,920 Speaker 1: coronavirus goes away like that would be awesome if we 939 00:51:23,000 --> 00:51:26,120 Speaker 1: found some household cure to it. I mean, I think 940 00:51:26,120 --> 00:51:27,600 Speaker 1: a lot of them, a lot of vitamin D and 941 00:51:27,640 --> 00:51:29,719 Speaker 1: vitamin C, and that tends to keep the common cold away. 942 00:51:29,760 --> 00:51:31,319 Speaker 1: But I don't want to get into that right now. 943 00:51:31,960 --> 00:51:34,640 Speaker 1: There's another company called I don't know if I'll pronounce 944 00:51:34,680 --> 00:51:37,640 Speaker 1: it correctly, but Fluid I'm and they have a saliva 945 00:51:37,719 --> 00:51:40,919 Speaker 1: test and they also got emergency FDA approval for their test. 946 00:51:41,239 --> 00:51:44,320 Speaker 1: Johnny Fluid, I'm stock. Let's go Jim Kramer here, Fluid, 947 00:51:44,320 --> 00:51:47,680 Speaker 1: I'm all right? Can you believe this? On March nineteenth, 948 00:51:48,080 --> 00:51:51,040 Speaker 1: right as the epidemic was taking hold, the stock was 949 00:51:51,120 --> 00:51:54,280 Speaker 1: a dollar thirty eight. Now it's eleven dollars and forty 950 00:51:54,320 --> 00:51:57,040 Speaker 1: three cents. All right, so it's basically ten times its 951 00:51:57,200 --> 00:52:02,440 Speaker 1: value that it was March nineteen. This emergency FDA approval 952 00:52:02,520 --> 00:52:05,960 Speaker 1: has skyrocketed it and I wish I bought it back 953 00:52:06,000 --> 00:52:09,000 Speaker 1: on March nineteenth, but who knew. H Yeah, well that's 954 00:52:09,000 --> 00:52:13,480 Speaker 1: what they said here. Abbott shares were up because from Bloomberg, 955 00:52:13,880 --> 00:52:16,000 Speaker 1: same thing you just said. Abbot shares were up three 956 00:52:16,040 --> 00:52:19,560 Speaker 1: point seven percent to one hundred and six dollars ninety 957 00:52:19,560 --> 00:52:22,320 Speaker 1: six cents in late trading in New York through Wednesday's 958 00:52:22,360 --> 00:52:25,680 Speaker 1: clothes the stock could climbed nineteen percent so far this year. 959 00:52:25,920 --> 00:52:29,120 Speaker 1: And if this thing is the right thing, Abbott Laboratories 960 00:52:29,239 --> 00:52:30,600 Speaker 1: is going to go through the roof. So I guess 961 00:52:30,640 --> 00:52:32,359 Speaker 1: I just gave you a tip if you were listening 962 00:52:32,360 --> 00:52:36,120 Speaker 1: to Texans all But don't don't blame me though if 963 00:52:36,120 --> 00:52:38,040 Speaker 1: it doesn't work. I mean, this is all Jimmy Bramer's 964 00:52:38,360 --> 00:52:41,359 Speaker 1: you know, Matt money guy. I mean, of course he's 965 00:52:41,400 --> 00:52:43,400 Speaker 1: been wrong. He's been wrong about a lot of stuff. 966 00:52:43,440 --> 00:52:45,879 Speaker 1: Didn't you take a bath in two thousand and eight? 967 00:52:45,960 --> 00:52:49,200 Speaker 1: And credibility. Look, by the way, Johnny talking about people 968 00:52:49,280 --> 00:52:52,719 Speaker 1: who are in sports broadcasting, but Noah thing or two 969 00:52:52,760 --> 00:52:55,480 Speaker 1: about financial stuff. I'm certainly not one of these people. 970 00:52:55,600 --> 00:52:59,800 Speaker 1: But I did call bottom after the meltdown of the 971 00:53:00,040 --> 00:53:03,480 Speaker 1: financial the mortgage crisis, when the TAO hit sixty five, 972 00:53:03,960 --> 00:53:06,880 Speaker 1: I said, all right, that's it, this is bottom. I 973 00:53:07,040 --> 00:53:10,680 Speaker 1: have witnesses, and it was. I was corrected on that. Well. Actually, 974 00:53:11,480 --> 00:53:15,040 Speaker 1: if you're to believe the movie The Big Short, it actually, 975 00:53:15,640 --> 00:53:19,360 Speaker 1: you know, the tip off was of the adult answers. 976 00:53:19,440 --> 00:53:22,480 Speaker 1: Apparently that had like five different houses according to The 977 00:53:22,560 --> 00:53:28,399 Speaker 1: Big Short, according to the movie that they were. Yeah, 978 00:53:28,440 --> 00:53:31,000 Speaker 1: they kind of they tipped off everybody. I love that movie. 979 00:53:31,000 --> 00:53:33,319 Speaker 1: I watched that movie again just like a few weeks ago, 980 00:53:33,400 --> 00:53:35,800 Speaker 1: and I recommend it to everybody right now because it 981 00:53:36,000 --> 00:53:43,120 Speaker 1: shows you government never mind. You know, it's a really 982 00:53:43,160 --> 00:53:46,320 Speaker 1: good movie. I mean, it's a it's really good, great movie. 983 00:53:46,640 --> 00:53:50,400 Speaker 1: Um uh. Christian Bale plays one of the kind of 984 00:53:50,719 --> 00:53:55,120 Speaker 1: uh my genius genius types. Um who is he just 985 00:53:55,560 --> 00:53:59,360 Speaker 1: dial issues? Yeah? Uh, And he kind of reminded me 986 00:53:59,440 --> 00:54:01,360 Speaker 1: of my son in some ways, the way that he 987 00:54:01,400 --> 00:54:03,640 Speaker 1: would kind of figure things out and how he went 988 00:54:03,719 --> 00:54:07,160 Speaker 1: about figuring them out. Does your song crank heavy metal music? 989 00:54:07,239 --> 00:54:12,120 Speaker 1: While trying to solve problems? Techno really because he can't 990 00:54:12,200 --> 00:54:14,239 Speaker 1: he can't have words in it. He doesn't he can't 991 00:54:14,239 --> 00:54:16,680 Speaker 1: have the words. But if he has tech, the techno 992 00:54:16,800 --> 00:54:18,800 Speaker 1: helps him because it's just the beat, the rhythm, it 993 00:54:18,880 --> 00:54:23,120 Speaker 1: just kind of gets. But the words, the words throw 994 00:54:23,239 --> 00:54:26,040 Speaker 1: him off, so he can't it can't have words. So 995 00:54:26,320 --> 00:54:29,560 Speaker 1: that's why he'll listen to techno or classical, mainly techno, 996 00:54:29,640 --> 00:54:32,640 Speaker 1: which I know people like music, but for him, it's 997 00:54:32,880 --> 00:54:35,480 Speaker 1: it's perfect. He loves it. That's how he sort of 998 00:54:36,120 --> 00:54:39,200 Speaker 1: he sort of uncloggs his brain and undoes his wires 999 00:54:39,680 --> 00:54:41,719 Speaker 1: um and that's really what gets him to do it. 1000 00:54:41,840 --> 00:54:44,000 Speaker 1: It's it's kind of fascinating in some sense because I've 1001 00:54:44,000 --> 00:54:45,960 Speaker 1: put I've heard him come in and I'm like, what 1002 00:54:46,040 --> 00:54:47,800 Speaker 1: are you listening to? And he's like, oh, I'm listening 1003 00:54:47,800 --> 00:54:50,080 Speaker 1: to like some o EM or some techno and I'm 1004 00:54:50,120 --> 00:54:53,160 Speaker 1: like huh, and he's like, I can't have words in it, Dad, 1005 00:54:53,239 --> 00:54:55,560 Speaker 1: but the music really helps. I'm like, oh, okay, that 1006 00:54:55,680 --> 00:54:57,520 Speaker 1: makes sense. It makes a lot of sense in a 1007 00:54:57,600 --> 00:55:00,840 Speaker 1: world that doesn't make a ton of sense. He actually 1008 00:55:00,960 --> 00:55:02,719 Speaker 1: makes more sense to me now than maybe he ever 1009 00:55:02,800 --> 00:55:04,600 Speaker 1: has in his life. So you know, maybe if we've 1010 00:55:04,680 --> 00:55:07,560 Speaker 1: learned anything today. Maybe maybe that's it. Maybe that's my 1011 00:55:08,000 --> 00:55:10,839 Speaker 1: lesson for the day.
