1 00:00:15,480 --> 00:00:16,160 Speaker 1: Good morning, guys. 2 00:00:16,160 --> 00:00:18,479 Speaker 2: How are you welcome into a Thursday morning episode of 3 00:00:18,520 --> 00:00:21,200 Speaker 2: the Daily Juice podcast with me Matt Perelt. You guys 4 00:00:21,200 --> 00:00:23,520 Speaker 2: can follow me across all of my socials at Sports 5 00:00:23,600 --> 00:00:27,479 Speaker 2: Talk Matt, and we were up Monday, up Tuesday, and 6 00:00:27,520 --> 00:00:30,960 Speaker 2: then we lost it all on Wednesday. Not a good 7 00:00:31,080 --> 00:00:33,320 Speaker 2: night for us last night a one in three mark. 8 00:00:33,800 --> 00:00:36,360 Speaker 2: We wind up going down over two and a half units. 9 00:00:36,400 --> 00:00:38,720 Speaker 2: That wipes out the winnings from the week, and that 10 00:00:38,800 --> 00:00:42,120 Speaker 2: puts us down for the week. But we got Thursday, Friday, Saturday, 11 00:00:42,120 --> 00:00:45,440 Speaker 2: Sunday to bounce back here. But Nationals get the win. 12 00:00:45,880 --> 00:00:49,040 Speaker 2: That's it. We continue with Foster Griffin Day. But unfortunately 13 00:00:49,560 --> 00:00:52,519 Speaker 2: Kyle Harrison got hit hard, the Orioles gave up a 14 00:00:52,520 --> 00:00:54,920 Speaker 2: ton of runs to the Cubs, and Matt Olsen struck 15 00:00:54,920 --> 00:00:57,560 Speaker 2: out three times. Cubs these are the Braves won the 16 00:00:57,600 --> 00:01:00,680 Speaker 2: game three nothing, but they did not get much offense 17 00:01:00,680 --> 00:01:03,720 Speaker 2: and Matt Olsen winds up going zero for four in 18 00:01:03,800 --> 00:01:05,640 Speaker 2: his game. So we go one in three on the 19 00:01:05,760 --> 00:01:09,080 Speaker 2: day as we head into a Thursday with three bets, 20 00:01:09,400 --> 00:01:13,440 Speaker 2: one in the World Cup, into in Major League Soccer. 21 00:01:13,520 --> 00:01:16,160 Speaker 2: Before we get to those plays, I love telling you 22 00:01:16,200 --> 00:01:19,240 Speaker 2: guys about the tools that we have available with Betting 23 00:01:19,280 --> 00:01:22,319 Speaker 2: Pros Premium, and sometimes it's not always that clear as 24 00:01:22,360 --> 00:01:26,080 Speaker 2: to what these things do. This one is unique, okay, 25 00:01:26,600 --> 00:01:30,400 Speaker 2: and we have worked really hard on the smart Money tool. 26 00:01:31,360 --> 00:01:34,720 Speaker 2: What is this? This is something that most people never see. 27 00:01:34,880 --> 00:01:38,200 Speaker 2: The sharpest players in the world don't bet at just 28 00:01:38,240 --> 00:01:41,679 Speaker 2: a sportsbook. They get limited, they get banned, so they 29 00:01:41,720 --> 00:01:43,680 Speaker 2: tend to move around and they do to other things, 30 00:01:43,680 --> 00:01:46,520 Speaker 2: prediction markets, peer to peer exchanges. They're trying to find 31 00:01:46,560 --> 00:01:50,040 Speaker 2: ways to get down that money. As to where they 32 00:01:50,080 --> 00:01:54,840 Speaker 2: go oftentimes is a prediction as to what the professionals 33 00:01:54,880 --> 00:01:58,680 Speaker 2: believe is the price. Maybe it's a wrong price, maybe 34 00:01:58,680 --> 00:02:01,760 Speaker 2: the number is wrong. They come in. The smart money 35 00:02:01,800 --> 00:02:05,720 Speaker 2: tool reads where that sharp money is going, and then 36 00:02:05,760 --> 00:02:08,919 Speaker 2: it helps you find the best price and the same 37 00:02:09,080 --> 00:02:12,720 Speaker 2: bet that you can place at your sportsbook. A lot 38 00:02:12,720 --> 00:02:15,360 Speaker 2: of the time, there's better numbers out there when you're shopping. 39 00:02:15,400 --> 00:02:17,960 Speaker 2: We always say you should have multiple outs, so whether 40 00:02:18,000 --> 00:02:22,040 Speaker 2: it be the NFL, NBA, WNBA, MLB, the World Copper more. 41 00:02:22,600 --> 00:02:24,239 Speaker 1: The board is updated all day long. 42 00:02:24,639 --> 00:02:27,120 Speaker 2: Check out what this looks like by going to bettingpros 43 00:02:27,160 --> 00:02:33,200 Speaker 2: dot com slash smart that's bettingpros dot com slash smart 44 00:02:33,360 --> 00:02:35,760 Speaker 2: to look at the smart money to see where it 45 00:02:35,840 --> 00:02:38,200 Speaker 2: is for the action coming up here for today and 46 00:02:38,200 --> 00:02:39,840 Speaker 2: for the World Cup. It's a really good place to 47 00:02:39,840 --> 00:02:42,080 Speaker 2: go because there's a lot of information out there in 48 00:02:42,120 --> 00:02:45,760 Speaker 2: the market about what the pros believe about France and Morocco. 49 00:02:46,080 --> 00:02:49,760 Speaker 2: The number is too expensive for me. Morocco is better 50 00:02:49,800 --> 00:02:53,280 Speaker 2: than people think. This is a rematch of a previous 51 00:02:53,280 --> 00:02:57,639 Speaker 2: World Cup last time between these two countries. France wins 52 00:02:57,680 --> 00:03:02,000 Speaker 2: one nothing last game out now here against Morocco. And 53 00:03:02,240 --> 00:03:05,639 Speaker 2: while I do like France, France is the winner of 54 00:03:05,680 --> 00:03:08,080 Speaker 2: the World Cup. On my bracket, France is the winner 55 00:03:08,120 --> 00:03:10,160 Speaker 2: of the World Cup. I might bet I only have 56 00:03:10,200 --> 00:03:12,040 Speaker 2: four fifty. I only have four and a half, so 57 00:03:12,080 --> 00:03:15,400 Speaker 2: I can't start hedging here in the quarter finals. 58 00:03:15,400 --> 00:03:16,440 Speaker 1: That doesn't make any sense. 59 00:03:16,560 --> 00:03:18,160 Speaker 2: So this will be They got to get to the 60 00:03:18,200 --> 00:03:21,360 Speaker 2: finals before we're talking about any real value in hedging. 61 00:03:21,440 --> 00:03:24,240 Speaker 1: So I'm going to leave the side alone. 62 00:03:23,960 --> 00:03:26,440 Speaker 2: Here between these two teams and just look at the 63 00:03:27,040 --> 00:03:31,240 Speaker 2: total being two and a half. I'm really surprised that 64 00:03:31,320 --> 00:03:34,640 Speaker 2: the number the price here is what it is. There's 65 00:03:34,680 --> 00:03:37,720 Speaker 2: been big pro money coming in here on the under 66 00:03:38,480 --> 00:03:40,520 Speaker 2: and I don't really agree with it. The books are 67 00:03:40,520 --> 00:03:42,640 Speaker 2: going to need the over which is kind of weird. 68 00:03:43,240 --> 00:03:43,720 Speaker 1: Morocco. 69 00:03:44,520 --> 00:03:47,960 Speaker 2: Look, I think if you look at the way the 70 00:03:48,000 --> 00:03:50,720 Speaker 2: games went with some of the higher profile teams like 71 00:03:51,120 --> 00:03:52,559 Speaker 2: Argentina Spain. 72 00:03:53,880 --> 00:03:55,080 Speaker 1: There's been a real threat. 73 00:03:55,880 --> 00:03:59,240 Speaker 2: These high profile, big time teams have been threatened and 74 00:03:59,280 --> 00:04:02,520 Speaker 2: they've had to rally, and when they rally, that leads 75 00:04:02,520 --> 00:04:05,040 Speaker 2: to goals. So they're down one nothing, they to score 76 00:04:05,080 --> 00:04:07,440 Speaker 2: two goals, they win two to one. Right this is 77 00:04:07,480 --> 00:04:10,080 Speaker 2: in ninety so it's not with extra time, and as 78 00:04:10,120 --> 00:04:11,800 Speaker 2: we get further in the tournament, it does get a 79 00:04:11,840 --> 00:04:14,600 Speaker 2: little more scary when we're talking about the overall up 80 00:04:14,640 --> 00:04:17,359 Speaker 2: tempo nature and trying to get three goals scored in 81 00:04:17,440 --> 00:04:20,359 Speaker 2: the first ninety minutes. But this game is being played 82 00:04:20,400 --> 00:04:22,880 Speaker 2: in Foxborough. There's going to be a ton of French 83 00:04:22,960 --> 00:04:26,440 Speaker 2: fans in the building. They've been here in New England 84 00:04:26,480 --> 00:04:29,839 Speaker 2: for a while and I think you're going to see 85 00:04:29,960 --> 00:04:33,680 Speaker 2: at least two goals from France. The question is on Morocco. 86 00:04:33,960 --> 00:04:38,240 Speaker 2: Can Morocco score? Okay, I think they can. I think 87 00:04:38,279 --> 00:04:41,120 Speaker 2: the weather favors Morocco. It's going to be about eighty 88 00:04:41,160 --> 00:04:44,480 Speaker 2: eight ninety degrees at kickoff here, it's a four o'clock 89 00:04:44,520 --> 00:04:47,000 Speaker 2: Easter time kick. I think we're going to see some 90 00:04:47,440 --> 00:04:49,640 Speaker 2: high intensity. I think we're going to see a lot 91 00:04:49,640 --> 00:04:53,080 Speaker 2: of back and forth countering as France gets gets on 92 00:04:53,120 --> 00:04:56,159 Speaker 2: the front foot and then Morocco looks to counter. If 93 00:04:56,160 --> 00:04:59,400 Speaker 2: Morocco gets down, I do think Morocco is going to 94 00:04:59,440 --> 00:05:02,360 Speaker 2: wind upw having depressed, and that's gonna leave them susceptible 95 00:05:02,600 --> 00:05:05,360 Speaker 2: to the offense that France has and the firepower that 96 00:05:05,400 --> 00:05:09,320 Speaker 2: France has. Look, I got a theme for today. I 97 00:05:09,320 --> 00:05:12,440 Speaker 2: got plus money plays. I'm playing three plus money plays. 98 00:05:12,760 --> 00:05:15,279 Speaker 2: I'm gonna go against the professionals here and I'm gonna 99 00:05:15,320 --> 00:05:17,560 Speaker 2: go ahead and take the over two and a half 100 00:05:17,600 --> 00:05:19,520 Speaker 2: goals at plus one oh four. 101 00:05:19,640 --> 00:05:22,000 Speaker 1: Here, let's get offense between these two. 102 00:05:22,240 --> 00:05:25,080 Speaker 2: Let's get a two to one final for France and Morocco, 103 00:05:25,520 --> 00:05:28,360 Speaker 2: and it very well might need Morocco to score first 104 00:05:28,440 --> 00:05:30,520 Speaker 2: and then France winds up having to counter and score 105 00:05:30,560 --> 00:05:33,039 Speaker 2: two times to get it's over, but plus one oh 106 00:05:33,160 --> 00:05:35,279 Speaker 2: four for one unit, we're coming in with France and 107 00:05:35,320 --> 00:05:40,359 Speaker 2: Morocco on the over bet Number two, we go to 108 00:05:40,600 --> 00:05:44,599 Speaker 2: Frambourvaldev's and the hot Detroit Tigers. This is a little 109 00:05:44,600 --> 00:05:48,719 Speaker 2: bit of a scary bet because the Tigers have been rolling. 110 00:05:49,080 --> 00:05:52,160 Speaker 2: The Tigers have won four games in a row and 111 00:05:52,400 --> 00:05:56,760 Speaker 2: seven of eight, and now here comes fram Vervaldez up 112 00:05:56,760 --> 00:06:01,360 Speaker 2: against the A's who throw Jack Perkins, who hasn't been great. 113 00:06:01,880 --> 00:06:06,360 Speaker 2: Four consecutive losses for the A's in games started by 114 00:06:06,480 --> 00:06:07,400 Speaker 2: Jack Perkins. 115 00:06:07,680 --> 00:06:09,520 Speaker 1: But I like betting against Framburr. 116 00:06:09,560 --> 00:06:11,920 Speaker 2: He's one of these guys that I've been betting consistently 117 00:06:12,000 --> 00:06:15,560 Speaker 2: against this season. There's pictures I'm betting on and pictures 118 00:06:15,560 --> 00:06:18,680 Speaker 2: I'm betting against, and Fraanburg Valdez is one of those 119 00:06:18,680 --> 00:06:21,520 Speaker 2: pictures that I'm going to bet against nearly every time 120 00:06:21,600 --> 00:06:24,440 Speaker 2: he is out there. But Jack Perkins hasn't been great. Okay, 121 00:06:24,440 --> 00:06:27,279 Speaker 2: this is a quasi opener. He's gonna go four to 122 00:06:27,360 --> 00:06:30,159 Speaker 2: five innings here. But last time out he gave up 123 00:06:30,200 --> 00:06:33,680 Speaker 2: seven earned runs. That's not good. In the month of June, 124 00:06:33,760 --> 00:06:35,719 Speaker 2: he had an ERA of six point sixty five. 125 00:06:36,120 --> 00:06:36,919 Speaker 1: That's not good. 126 00:06:37,080 --> 00:06:40,200 Speaker 2: We need Jack Perkins to be good today up against 127 00:06:40,240 --> 00:06:44,680 Speaker 2: Franburg Valadez, who has been losing like crazy. We've talked 128 00:06:44,680 --> 00:06:47,279 Speaker 2: about this a lot. His ERA wasn't bad in June 129 00:06:47,320 --> 00:06:50,320 Speaker 2: three point twenty one. The team just lost three of 130 00:06:50,360 --> 00:06:53,479 Speaker 2: the five starts made by Franburg Valdez. They have lost 131 00:06:53,520 --> 00:06:56,080 Speaker 2: the only start he made in July ten to four. 132 00:06:56,160 --> 00:06:58,800 Speaker 2: He went five innings gave up five ironed runs on 133 00:06:58,960 --> 00:07:01,440 Speaker 2: the road to the ten Exis Rangers. In the month 134 00:07:01,480 --> 00:07:05,719 Speaker 2: of May, the Tigers lost every game started by Framber Valdez. 135 00:07:06,120 --> 00:07:09,400 Speaker 2: It is going to be interesting from an A's perspective 136 00:07:09,480 --> 00:07:12,160 Speaker 2: because on the road this year, the A's are twenty 137 00:07:12,200 --> 00:07:15,360 Speaker 2: two and twenty three. At home this year, the Tigers 138 00:07:15,520 --> 00:07:19,840 Speaker 2: are twenty five and twenty one. They are pretty good favorites, 139 00:07:19,880 --> 00:07:22,280 Speaker 2: but the number has been moving down because the pro 140 00:07:22,320 --> 00:07:25,720 Speaker 2: money has come in here on the A's. Detroit is 141 00:07:25,840 --> 00:07:28,160 Speaker 2: up two games to none in this series, so the 142 00:07:28,160 --> 00:07:30,680 Speaker 2: A's are trying to avoid the sweep, which I like 143 00:07:30,720 --> 00:07:33,440 Speaker 2: betting on teams trying to avoid getting swept. But that's 144 00:07:33,480 --> 00:07:36,600 Speaker 2: more of a home trend than a road trend. But 145 00:07:36,720 --> 00:07:39,880 Speaker 2: I like the A's here to get a win and 146 00:07:39,920 --> 00:07:43,160 Speaker 2: to fade Framber Valdez and to get a w because 147 00:07:43,200 --> 00:07:46,360 Speaker 2: I do think this A's offense is due. They've scored 148 00:07:46,400 --> 00:07:49,280 Speaker 2: two in one run in this series so far to 149 00:07:49,400 --> 00:07:51,679 Speaker 2: just three runs in two games. This is a pretty 150 00:07:51,720 --> 00:07:56,280 Speaker 2: high potent and offensively productive team in the A's, So 151 00:07:56,320 --> 00:07:59,000 Speaker 2: I do think they'll score today up against Framber, and 152 00:07:59,040 --> 00:08:01,440 Speaker 2: I think at plus money, I think it's a good 153 00:08:01,480 --> 00:08:04,920 Speaker 2: look here to fade Bramber Valdez and come in here 154 00:08:05,160 --> 00:08:09,000 Speaker 2: and take the athletics at plus one point fifteen for one. 155 00:08:08,880 --> 00:08:09,800 Speaker 1: Unit to win. 156 00:08:09,920 --> 00:08:14,160 Speaker 2: Here today, the Daily Juice podcast is being brought to 157 00:08:14,160 --> 00:08:18,440 Speaker 2: you by our friends at hard Rock Bet.

The month of June, the team went four 178 00:09:29,600 --> 00:09:33,800 Speaker 2: and one and starts by Polente against the Cubs in 179 00:09:33,840 --> 00:09:36,480 Speaker 2: the first game on the third of July, five and 180 00:09:36,520 --> 00:09:39,280 Speaker 2: two thirds, no earned runs. It was a seventeen to 181 00:09:39,280 --> 00:09:43,319 Speaker 2: one win. They've been scoring for this guy. He's also 182 00:09:43,360 --> 00:09:45,800 Speaker 2: been tremendous. His era in the month of June was 183 00:09:45,840 --> 00:09:48,480 Speaker 2: three point one six. He gave up just eleven earned 184 00:09:48,520 --> 00:09:52,120 Speaker 2: in thirty one and a third innings worth of work 185 00:09:52,440 --> 00:09:57,280 Speaker 2: Polente and the Cardinals. His era at home hasn't been tremendous. 186 00:09:57,480 --> 00:10:00,560 Speaker 2: But this is a fifth game of this series and header. 187 00:10:01,240 --> 00:10:04,760 Speaker 2: They lost the first four games of this series. Sorry 188 00:10:04,800 --> 00:10:06,840 Speaker 2: first yeah, first three games. Sorry, first three games in 189 00:10:06,840 --> 00:10:09,280 Speaker 2: the series. It was a four game losing streak. This 190 00:10:09,360 --> 00:10:12,200 Speaker 2: is now the fifth game and they won five to 191 00:10:12,200 --> 00:10:15,360 Speaker 2: one yesterday. This is a big game for the Cardinals. 192 00:10:15,360 --> 00:10:17,760 Speaker 2: It's not a big game for the Brewers. The Brewers 193 00:10:18,080 --> 00:10:20,840 Speaker 2: are right now running away with the division. They got 194 00:10:20,880 --> 00:10:22,680 Speaker 2: a six game lead on the Cubs for second place, 195 00:10:22,679 --> 00:10:24,240 Speaker 2: but they have a nine and a half game lead 196 00:10:24,520 --> 00:10:27,319 Speaker 2: on the Cardinals. Hey lose this, it's ten and a half. 197 00:10:27,520 --> 00:10:30,319 Speaker 2: I know it's July the eighth, July the ninth, July tenth, 198 00:10:30,360 --> 00:10:34,360 Speaker 2: but like this is you got to keep within contact 199 00:10:34,640 --> 00:10:37,120 Speaker 2: of teams in your division at the top, and this 200 00:10:37,200 --> 00:10:39,199 Speaker 2: is I think a really big game. Milwaukee leads three 201 00:10:39,240 --> 00:10:42,160 Speaker 2: games to one so far here in the season series, 202 00:10:42,160 --> 00:10:45,720 Speaker 2: and they're throwing Logan Henderson, who isn't horrible two to 203 00:10:45,760 --> 00:10:48,600 Speaker 2: one with a two point seven to four ERA. Last 204 00:10:48,640 --> 00:10:52,040 Speaker 2: three times out, the Brewers have won all three games started. 205 00:10:52,080 --> 00:10:54,440 Speaker 2: He's gone five innings in those three games, giving up 206 00:10:54,559 --> 00:10:57,559 Speaker 2: zero one and two earned runs. So I don't think 207 00:10:57,559 --> 00:11:01,160 Speaker 2: there's going to be a huge offensive explode coming here 208 00:11:01,240 --> 00:11:03,880 Speaker 2: for the Cardinals. But I just think polenty when he's 209 00:11:03,880 --> 00:11:07,080 Speaker 2: on the mound, the team is finding ways to win. 210 00:11:07,280 --> 00:11:09,440 Speaker 2: His ERA at home is four point four to seven, 211 00:11:09,480 --> 00:11:11,760 Speaker 2: which is in great but four and five on the 212 00:11:11,840 --> 00:11:15,040 Speaker 2: year for him too, eighty seven opposing betting average twenty 213 00:11:15,040 --> 00:11:17,680 Speaker 2: eight earned runs and fifty six and a third innings 214 00:11:17,920 --> 00:11:22,280 Speaker 2: worth of work. But at home he has been productive 215 00:11:22,760 --> 00:11:25,520 Speaker 2: and in the month of June the team went three 216 00:11:25,600 --> 00:11:29,320 Speaker 2: and one in games started by Polenty at home, and 217 00:11:29,360 --> 00:11:32,199 Speaker 2: he was pretty good. He gave up one earned, two earned, 218 00:11:32,400 --> 00:11:36,880 Speaker 2: one earned in those home starts for him and the 219 00:11:36,920 --> 00:11:38,920 Speaker 2: one loss. He gave up five earned and six and 220 00:11:38,960 --> 00:11:40,679 Speaker 2: two thirds and a five to one loss. 221 00:11:41,000 --> 00:11:41,360 Speaker 1: Very good. 222 00:11:41,400 --> 00:11:44,160 Speaker 2: Last time out. Take the plus money. Let's go with 223 00:11:44,240 --> 00:11:48,520 Speaker 2: the Cardinals at plus one thirteen for one unit, so 224 00:11:48,880 --> 00:11:53,360 Speaker 2: three units today in action all plus money plays with 225 00:11:53,480 --> 00:11:57,160 Speaker 2: France and Morocco over two and a half, Athletics over 226 00:11:57,600 --> 00:12:01,760 Speaker 2: the Tigers, and the Cardinals over the Brewers at plus 227 00:12:01,840 --> 00:12:05,319 Speaker 2: money at plus one fifteen and plus one thirteen. 228 00:12:05,679 --> 00:12:07,400 Speaker 1: Coming up later this morning. 229 00:12:07,440 --> 00:12:11,680 Speaker 2: If you guys are interested in talking UFC, Connor McGregor 230 00:12:11,800 --> 00:12:15,040 Speaker 2: is back against Max Holloway for International Fight Week in 231 00:12:15,080 --> 00:12:15,800 Speaker 2: Las Vegas. 232 00:12:15,840 --> 00:12:17,079 Speaker 1: Amazingly, I'm not in Vegas. 233 00:12:17,120 --> 00:12:19,880 Speaker 2: I'm in New Hampshire, but I'm never in Vegas for 234 00:12:19,920 --> 00:12:20,800 Speaker 2: International Fight Week. 235 00:12:20,840 --> 00:12:21,920 Speaker 1: This is very typical for me. 236 00:12:22,000 --> 00:12:24,560 Speaker 2: I've been there one time in the last seven years 237 00:12:24,679 --> 00:12:27,120 Speaker 2: where I've been in Vegas for International Fight Week. This 238 00:12:27,200 --> 00:12:29,160 Speaker 2: is always the week that I take off always a 239 00:12:29,200 --> 00:12:33,840 Speaker 2: week that I go on vacation. But Connor's back. Connor's 240 00:12:33,920 --> 00:12:37,880 Speaker 2: talking like Connor McGregor again. He has found religion, he 241 00:12:37,920 --> 00:12:41,200 Speaker 2: has found sobriety, and he thinks that he is going 242 00:12:41,280 --> 00:12:44,280 Speaker 2: to do something special. The guy can still talk, but 243 00:12:44,400 --> 00:12:47,240 Speaker 2: can he still fight? The UFC is hoping for it 244 00:12:47,280 --> 00:12:50,360 Speaker 2: because they need him desperately. The UFC is lacking in 245 00:12:50,440 --> 00:12:53,720 Speaker 2: star power and could conn McGregor come in and save 246 00:12:53,840 --> 00:12:58,320 Speaker 2: the UFC from what has been a pretty boring twenty 247 00:12:58,400 --> 00:13:01,439 Speaker 2: twenty six Even with the Lighthouse card, it has not 248 00:13:01,640 --> 00:13:05,440 Speaker 2: been a big year for the UFC and Paramount plus 249 00:13:05,840 --> 00:13:10,160 Speaker 2: Connor Max Holloway two happened Saturday night in Las Vegas 250 00:13:10,160 --> 00:13:13,440 Speaker 2: at Tmobile Arena, coming up at eleven o'clock Eastern time. 251 00:13:13,520 --> 00:13:15,960 Speaker 2: I'll break it down.
