You were my number two. You were 0:01:24.400 --> 0:01:25.000 my number two. 0:01:25.440 --> 0:01:26.600 I got his jersey. 0:01:26.959 --> 0:01:30.319 You have a southside also a southside legends. So thank 0:01:30.319 --> 0:01:32.440 you so much for being here. I saw your face 0:01:32.840 --> 0:01:36.480 on the TV and on my feed, the viral sensation 0:01:36.680 --> 0:01:39.840 that you are Sister Mary Joe. Once again, this is 0:01:39.880 --> 0:01:42.560 not your first appearance on The Dan Patrick Show twenty eighteen. 0:01:43.520 --> 0:01:46.080 You came here, you were at Marian Catholic School. You 0:01:46.160 --> 0:01:49.600 throw it at first pitch, it's all time top one 0:01:49.720 --> 0:01:53.360 or two first pitches, and you became an overnight sensation. 0:01:53.520 --> 0:01:56.200 What was it like to go from oh, you're at 0:01:56.280 --> 0:01:58.680 a catechist at Mary Catholic High School, and now you're 0:01:58.680 --> 0:02:01.560 a leading sports center and you're leading the Dan Patrick 0:02:01.600 --> 0:02:03.160 Show on your viral sensation. 0:02:04.120 --> 0:02:07.680 Oh gosh, I remember I was on Fox News also, 0:02:07.760 --> 0:02:10.400 I had gone on to New York. You mentioned something 0:02:10.440 --> 0:02:12.680 about the viral pitch, and I said, well, what I 0:02:12.720 --> 0:02:14.919 hope they see more is my joy for life and 0:02:15.040 --> 0:02:17.040 my love for the Gospel, because that's really what this 0:02:17.080 --> 0:02:20.280 platform is about. I mean, as you have you know, 0:02:20.320 --> 0:02:23.280 I read about you two, and being a lifelong Catholic, 0:02:23.320 --> 0:02:26.520 it's like having this platform would be nothing if it 0:02:26.560 --> 0:02:28.960 wasn't used to give all the glory and honor to God. 0:02:29.040 --> 0:02:32.640 And so I see more athletes doing that more and more, 0:02:32.800 --> 0:02:36.200 and so it's just appropriate that you know it wasn't 0:02:36.240 --> 0:02:39.080 a strike or was it even near the zone? 0:02:39.120 --> 0:02:41.880 We're talking about this. Wait in a second, sister, you 0:02:42.000 --> 0:02:45.160 had me, You had me chasing. A strike is a 0:02:45.240 --> 0:02:48.520 strike if the patter's chasing and that had some lowdown 0:02:48.600 --> 0:02:51.040 What are you eating on the radar gun right now? Oh? 0:02:51.080 --> 0:02:53.400 I don't know. I'll just tell you the story that 0:02:53.440 --> 0:02:55.720 I told back in the day when I would I 0:02:55.760 --> 0:02:59.600 grew up near a county fair. Okay, you know the 0:02:59.639 --> 0:03:03.400 movies Sandla, Yes, of course that that was my life 0:03:03.400 --> 0:03:05.640 growing up is right across the street. I'm the youngest 0:03:05.680 --> 0:03:09.360 of ten the older. Those were the neighborhoods when everybody 0:03:09.440 --> 0:03:12.919 had eight to ten kids and everybody was playing ball 0:03:12.960 --> 0:03:15.560 all day, and the county Fair we would go and 0:03:15.600 --> 0:03:19.000 do the radar gun. Yeah, and when I was a teenager, 0:03:19.120 --> 0:03:21.600 I could throw it about seventy six miles an hour. 0:03:22.720 --> 0:03:22.919 Yeah. 0:03:23.000 --> 0:03:23.400 Come on. 0:03:24.360 --> 0:03:26.560 And this took you through college and you played into 0:03:26.600 --> 0:03:29.720 your college life and then the world sees it. I mean, 0:03:29.720 --> 0:03:31.440 you do the thing with the ball, which is just 0:03:31.720 --> 0:03:35.800 awesome as well. So you've got game. We all know 0:03:35.920 --> 0:03:37.600 you have got game. So you got the call back 0:03:37.640 --> 0:03:41.520 this week. I thought, in a sport and a team 0:03:41.560 --> 0:03:44.560 that has a history, sister, you may not be you 0:03:44.600 --> 0:03:47.360 may be too young to remember this. Disco Demolition Night 0:03:48.000 --> 0:03:50.520 was something in the nineteen seventies that the White Sox 0:03:50.560 --> 0:03:53.800 tried to do to in a similar way, have a 0:03:54.320 --> 0:03:57.840 fan engagement, and they had a riot because they were 0:03:57.880 --> 0:04:03.960 prety disco records. Long story short, Pope had night. What 0:04:04.080 --> 0:04:07.280 an amazing success. What was it like to be in 0:04:07.320 --> 0:04:09.600 the ballpark that day? Did it feel holy? 0:04:10.400 --> 0:04:10.760 It did? 0:04:10.880 --> 0:04:15.640 I mean it actually felt like a big church revival really, 0:04:16.040 --> 0:04:19.719 I mean, and hopefully it was all about engaging believers 0:04:19.760 --> 0:04:23.440 of all faiths, right and so now the stadium, it 0:04:23.480 --> 0:04:27.640 was overwhelming. And when they when they mentioned my name 0:04:27.760 --> 0:04:31.680 to to throw the pitch, it was it was I 0:04:31.800 --> 0:04:34.640 was honored. It was really overwhelming. So it was no, 0:04:34.760 --> 0:04:37.600 it felt awesome. The sign a piece that they talked about. 0:04:38.080 --> 0:04:40.640 Yes, I loved doing all that. 0:04:40.839 --> 0:04:41.200 It was. 0:04:41.320 --> 0:04:43.760 It was really great, you know, I said it to 0:04:43.800 --> 0:04:47.919 somebody who is not Catholic in my family though. You know, 0:04:48.160 --> 0:04:52.239 the seventh dting stretch of baseball, Mass has a seventh 0:04:52.279 --> 0:04:54.960 hitting stretch in Mass It's called the Sign of Piece. 0:04:55.040 --> 0:04:57.560 You know, that's what we did. I'd love to see 0:04:57.560 --> 0:05:00.280 that be a fifty y. Do you think we got 0:05:00.320 --> 0:05:04.160 any converts in the ballpark that night? I bet absolutely? 0:05:05.040 --> 0:05:05.880 Uh sure? 0:05:06.680 --> 0:05:09.960 Did anything get close to sack relief? You know, you've 0:05:09.960 --> 0:05:12.200 got a lot of people and maybe there's alcohol involved 0:05:12.240 --> 0:05:12.960 in bo pats? 0:05:13.200 --> 0:05:15.680 No, I mean there were people dressed in you know, 0:05:15.800 --> 0:05:18.159 Bishop Garb and all that kind of stuff. But for me, 0:05:18.400 --> 0:05:21.479 and I think for you, God's presence can be seen 0:05:21.760 --> 0:05:25.480 in all places, right, I mean we have eyes of faith. 0:05:25.880 --> 0:05:28.200 We have eyes of faith to see it and don't 0:05:28.640 --> 0:05:31.799 be too rigid, you know, and allow God the freedom 0:05:31.880 --> 0:05:35.679 to just express God's self. No, I thought it was great. 0:05:35.960 --> 0:05:38.919 I mean there were people imbibing. I was taking pictures 0:05:38.920 --> 0:05:41.440 with others and it was like, okay, you've had a 0:05:41.480 --> 0:05:43.800 lot to drink. But that's okay too, I mean, you know, 0:05:43.839 --> 0:05:45.039 but otherwise sacrilegion. 0:05:45.040 --> 0:05:49.440 Know, if if beer were to be poured in the 0:05:49.480 --> 0:05:52.240 po pat and we dragged out of the po pat 0:05:52.240 --> 0:05:57.680 would that be sacrilege beer? It would be a sin 0:05:57.920 --> 0:06:01.760 since they're to waste the beer. I'm still very much 0:06:01.839 --> 0:06:06.920 in love with the origin story here because well, mister 0:06:06.960 --> 0:06:09.960 Paul Popps, please join this conversation right now. We have 0:06:10.000 --> 0:06:13.240 a connection, our Paul Pops, another resident Catholic here, We're 0:06:13.279 --> 0:06:17.920 happy to say. And also Mary Catholic, Marying Katholic. I'm 0:06:17.920 --> 0:06:18.600 a marrying. 0:06:18.400 --> 0:06:21.200 Catholic grad and I've known Sister Mary Joe for a while. 0:06:21.320 --> 0:06:24.520 And back in twenty eighteen it was Marying Catholic Night 0:06:24.520 --> 0:06:27.200 at SOS Park and I was invited to attend with 0:06:27.279 --> 0:06:29.560 all the other married Catholic people, Sister Mary Joe and 0:06:29.600 --> 0:06:33.160 all the grad and they actually weirdly asked me to 0:06:33.200 --> 0:06:35.880 throw out the first pitch. And I wasn't able to 0:06:35.880 --> 0:06:38.000 go because of a family vacation. And I got the 0:06:38.080 --> 0:06:40.360 email and I was very disappointed. I was distraught it 0:06:40.440 --> 0:06:42.520 had been I had a terrible pitch. I was a 0:06:42.600 --> 0:06:46.160 terrible sliding doors. I was an archer, and I emailed 0:06:46.360 --> 0:06:49.160 the president of the school and Sister Mary Joe was 0:06:49.200 --> 0:06:49.680 on the email. 0:06:49.720 --> 0:06:50.880 She knows Paul, I got you. 0:06:51.000 --> 0:06:52.520 I'll come out of the pen and take care of. 0:06:52.480 --> 0:06:54.880 It, and I'm so glad she did because she did 0:06:54.920 --> 0:06:57.000 it so much better and so much more entertaining than 0:06:57.040 --> 0:06:57.440 I would have. 0:06:57.560 --> 0:06:58.200 Wow. 0:06:58.640 --> 0:07:01.080 Well, and here's an other part of the story, Paul, 0:07:01.080 --> 0:07:04.279 that you might not know. When sister Mary Paul tells 0:07:04.320 --> 0:07:06.640 that story, I think you were on the email with her. 0:07:06.960 --> 0:07:10.440 She was the president. She was asked then to throw 0:07:10.480 --> 0:07:14.520 the pitch, and she said, I understand that maybe you 0:07:14.560 --> 0:07:16.640 want to have a sister. So I didn't know that 0:07:16.720 --> 0:07:20.080 you were picked, and then she was picked. So I realized, 0:07:20.080 --> 0:07:21.520 now how far down in the rotation. 0:07:21.720 --> 0:07:25.120 Oh, you were the closer they needed Marianna Rivera. 0:07:25.520 --> 0:07:26.320 You got the door. 0:07:26.840 --> 0:07:29.160 It was divine in avention, sister, because you can throw 0:07:29.200 --> 0:07:29.760 and we can't. 0:07:31.280 --> 0:07:33.400 Holy smoke is what we call it. We call it 0:07:33.440 --> 0:07:35.880 holy smoke. Real quick. They blew a four oh lead 0:07:35.920 --> 0:07:38.920 in the game two nights ago, lost five to four. 0:07:39.160 --> 0:07:41.800 How do you explain that theologically, sister. 0:07:41.920 --> 0:07:43.360 Well, I left the stadium. 0:07:43.600 --> 0:07:47.400 Oh that's how you explained it, Okay, I left early. 0:07:47.920 --> 0:07:49.560 I left early to get out of there, just to 0:07:49.600 --> 0:07:52.320 avoid some of the crowds and traffic and all of that. 0:07:52.480 --> 0:07:55.280 So we joked about that too. So and others said, 0:07:55.360 --> 0:07:57.080 you know, maybe that's what they get for doing the 0:07:57.080 --> 0:07:59.760 pope at But now, come on, that was just. 0:08:00.960 --> 0:08:03.880 When we say our prayers. When we say our prayers, 0:08:04.760 --> 0:08:07.160 does God care who wins those games when we say 0:08:07.160 --> 0:08:09.680 our prayers for our teams? No? No, okay, well. 0:08:10.320 --> 0:08:11.640 But we have to do the part too. 0:08:11.800 --> 0:08:14.000 We have to do our part. You have done your 0:08:14.040 --> 0:08:18.400 part in an amazing way. I have sisters in my life. 0:08:18.440 --> 0:08:21.320 My cousin is sister the Disciples of the Lord Jesus 0:08:21.400 --> 0:08:23.720 Christ in Texas. It means very much to me and 0:08:23.760 --> 0:08:27.560 my family. And just being in public view and showing 0:08:27.600 --> 0:08:31.360 people how you are and living the life.

You know one 0:08:53.040 --> 0:08:56.880 specific thing in that viral video of Pope Leo another 0:08:57.000 --> 0:08:59.880 south Sider. Of course, that's why they had them look 0:09:00.080 --> 0:09:02.120 at the World Series, is at the game the cameras 0:09:02.600 --> 0:09:05.920 miraculously I could say, catch him. And he looks like 0:09:05.960 --> 0:09:07.880 it's a tough point in the game, and he's muttering 0:09:07.960 --> 0:09:11.160 under his breath, you know, and is he is? He 0:09:11.360 --> 0:09:14.960 is he muttering something not so nice about Scott put Sednick. 0:09:15.960 --> 0:09:19.959 You know? Is that what's happening? That's my dream get 0:09:20.000 --> 0:09:24.520 for for the Real Deal podcast? Yeah? Yeah, uh Foley, 0:09:24.559 --> 0:09:25.040 what do you got? 0:09:25.120 --> 0:09:27.080 You also know, just to put a bow on this story, 0:09:27.080 --> 0:09:28.840 there's a bit of a connection we have to the 0:09:28.840 --> 0:09:32.120 Pope Robert Provost. He is from the South Side Chicago. 0:09:32.200 --> 0:09:34.319 He lived in a town called Dalton when I was little, 0:09:34.360 --> 0:09:36.960 and I was little, never met him, never knew his family. 0:09:37.040 --> 0:09:41.040 But the Pope's father was my grade school superintendent. So 0:09:41.120 --> 0:09:44.239 in all my grade school yearbooks there's mister Provosts. 0:09:44.240 --> 0:09:46.960 So are we running here? This is an show? 0:09:47.120 --> 0:09:47.640 Is blessed. 0:09:47.679 --> 0:09:48.760 It's never come up before. 0:09:48.800 --> 0:09:52.360 But when I was little, Brookwood Junior High School and 0:09:52.520 --> 0:09:56.440 Elementary School in Glenwood, Illinois, our superintendent was mister Provost. 0:09:56.480 --> 0:09:58.439 He would walk in with a suit, you like, he 0:09:58.559 --> 0:10:00.680 puckered up because he was the ball I mean, and 0:10:00.760 --> 0:10:03.559 his son coached baseball and years later became a soxs 0:10:03.600 --> 0:10:04.000 fan and. 0:10:04.080 --> 0:10:07.360 So you were never met or or at least a 0:10:07.400 --> 0:10:11.640 greater instructed by led by the man who raised the pope. 0:10:11.679 --> 0:10:14.160 That's correct, and Dalton, Illinois. We were a few blocks 0:10:14.160 --> 0:10:16.079 away but never met him or anything. But it was 0:10:16.120 --> 0:10:17.640 a big deal for the south Side people. 0:10:17.640 --> 0:10:21.640 We have these sliding doors, you know, a freaky Friday situation. 0:10:22.040 --> 0:10:25.760 You wake up and Pope Leo wakes up and you 0:10:25.800 --> 0:10:28.400 switch bodies. You wake up and sister Mary Joe and 0:10:28.400 --> 0:10:32.000 you switch body. We're close. It's pretty close. That's pretty close. 0:10:33.720 --> 0:10:36.400 Eight seven seven three DP showed the call. We got 0:10:36.400 --> 0:10:38.720 some headlines. We want to recap the day for you guys. 0:10:38.760 --> 0:10:41.440 It's been a wonderful day here. Thank you so much 0:10:41.440 --> 0:10:43.440 for having me here in the man came, I am 0:10:43.679 --> 0:10:47.720 man Cave sitting as Dan is on in a lovely 0:10:47.800 --> 0:10:51.320 weekend where he will soon walk his daughter down the aisle, 0:10:51.400 --> 0:10:55.040 and we all are eagerly awaiting the update in the text. 0:10:55.120 --> 0:10:56.720 We're not gonna ask him to shot video. Why would 0:10:56.720 --> 0:10:58.600 we do that live in the moment, but we want 0:10:58.600 --> 0:11:01.440 the tears to fall. That's where is I'm Tony really 0:11:02.040 --> 0:11:04.480 and the dan Netts have carried me this entire show 0:11:04.720 --> 0:11:07.560 when I was moving the microphone and muting myself or 0:11:07.800 --> 0:11:11.120 going to dude wipe's reads too quickly. But I mean, honestly, 0:11:12.000 --> 0:11:14.040 would you rather go to do wipes too quickly or 0:11:14.080 --> 0:11:17.080 too late? I would go to dude wipes too quickly? Right, Okay, Dylan, 0:11:17.080 --> 0:11:18.400 what do you got in the poll? I was gonna 0:11:18.400 --> 0:11:21.040 say I've made the mistake of too late before you don't. Okay, 0:11:21.200 --> 0:11:23.040 Well there we go. All right, Dylan? Where are we 0:11:23.120 --> 0:11:23.760 on the poles? Though? 0:11:24.400 --> 0:11:25.480 You want to throw out a new one? 0:11:25.640 --> 0:11:29.559 No, I want to hear the late on al stadiums, Buffalos, 0:11:29.720 --> 0:11:32.640 Hi Marks. Would you like to take a guess, I 0:11:32.640 --> 0:11:37.120 would take a guess that more fans want outdoor stadiums 0:11:37.240 --> 0:11:40.040 than dome stadiums. You'd be correct, Tony. 0:11:40.080 --> 0:11:41.680 If you're a fan of a cold weather team, would 0:11:41.720 --> 0:11:44.520 you want her stadium open or domed? Sixty three percent 0:11:44.600 --> 0:11:45.280 want it open. 0:11:45.440 --> 0:11:48.040 PAULI the one I can never picture, and I'm a 0:11:48.040 --> 0:11:50.360 Bears fan. I never pictured it in Chicago. I can 0:11:50.480 --> 0:11:52.880 never picture a top on lambeau Field. I don't think 0:11:52.880 --> 0:11:54.960 it'll happen in our lifetime. I don't think they want it. 0:11:55.600 --> 0:11:57.960 They're not going to get a Super Bowl because of infrastructure, 0:11:58.040 --> 0:11:59.720 just the size. But they got the draft and they 0:11:59.720 --> 0:12:03.600 didn't very well. It would be well, never see it, 0:12:03.640 --> 0:12:04.120 can't see it. 0:12:05.640 --> 0:12:10.120 News of the day. We're tracking a very interesting kerfuffle 0:12:10.240 --> 0:12:13.920 Jade and Daniels and his alma mater and the number five. 0:12:14.320 --> 0:12:16.480 We had a poll earlier the day as well. Dylan, 0:12:16.600 --> 0:12:19.000 back to work, Dylan, I'm not gonna let you sleep today. 0:12:20.440 --> 0:12:22.880 Chuldell us, you have given out Jade and Daniels number five, 0:12:23.000 --> 0:12:26.120 Jersey and Tony. To your credit, you almost nailed this 0:12:26.280 --> 0:12:29.480 ahead of time. Eighty four, he said, eighty twenty. It's 0:12:29.520 --> 0:12:32.320 eighty two point four to seventeen point six exactly. 0:12:32.360 --> 0:12:34.959 Bad luck for Jade and Daniels. The cease and desist 0:12:35.000 --> 0:12:40.520 letter elevates it to a litigious nature, the likes of 0:12:40.559 --> 0:12:43.319 which fans really aren't going to ever take your side 0:12:43.400 --> 0:12:44.600 doing well. 0:12:44.640 --> 0:12:46.839 We don't have to break down the etymology of cease 0:12:46.880 --> 0:12:50.160 and desist, but I did. Obviously everyone knows ceased desist, 0:12:50.400 --> 0:12:52.560 but is kind of the vague term of the two. 0:12:52.960 --> 0:12:56.839 I looked it up. They're synonyms essentially, so it's kind 0:12:56.840 --> 0:12:59.560 of redundant, like if someone just sent you a cease Yeah, 0:12:59.640 --> 0:13:01.040 I feel like that would get the point across. 0:13:01.120 --> 0:13:04.240 Yeah, just stop, I hear you loop loop points going 0:13:04.320 --> 0:13:07.040 for you the good points. Yeah, I would say it's 0:13:07.040 --> 0:13:09.680 a redundant and also means the same thing letter go ahead, Marvin. 0:13:09.880 --> 0:13:12.480 Do you think this is just miscommunication, because I do 0:13:12.600 --> 0:13:15.560 not think this is miscommunication. Aiden James was told by 0:13:15.559 --> 0:13:18.480 somebody that, hey, we're never gonna have you. 0:13:18.679 --> 0:13:22.720 I think somebody's never to think. This was supposedly, you know, 0:13:23.000 --> 0:13:25.640 or possibly wanted to be done behind the scenes and 0:13:25.679 --> 0:13:27.520 now it's public. But I think a third rail was 0:13:27.559 --> 0:13:32.120 pressed in the relationship in some way. And hey, Jayden 0:13:32.200 --> 0:13:34.280 Daniel is allowed to feel how he wants to feel. 0:13:34.280 --> 0:13:37.920 He can believe what he was told. But I think 0:13:38.000 --> 0:13:43.480 in the end, this is Lane Kiffin making a decision that, 0:13:43.760 --> 0:13:47.720 by all American cornerback today is more important to me 0:13:47.840 --> 0:13:52.680 right now in a transfer portal era of college football 0:13:53.320 --> 0:13:56.840 than our Heisman Trophy winner from a few years ago. 0:13:56.920 --> 0:14:01.040 And that's what that is. Headlines, Well, we can't have 0:14:01.120 --> 0:14:04.880 a bigger headline than the sale of the Los Angeles Lakers. 0:14:06.679 --> 0:14:10.760 In four days, the ownership group of one of the 0:14:10.760 --> 0:14:15.520 greatest franchises in all of sports turned around out of nowhere. 0:14:15.640 --> 0:14:17.880 I'm gonna ask Ramona Shelburne, who knows more about this 0:14:17.920 --> 0:14:20.440 than anybody who broke the story for ESPN, who was 0:14:20.520 --> 0:14:24.960 most surprised the League office, other owners in the league, 0:14:25.120 --> 0:14:29.840 Lakers players, fans of the NBA, or maybe even Kushner 0:14:29.880 --> 0:14:33.440 and Eiger themselves, the two who got the deal to 0:14:33.520 --> 0:14:35.960 go through in the boy that's coming up next on 0:14:36.080 --> 0:14:36.960 The Dan Patrick Show. 0:14:37.080 --> 0:14:39.560 Thanks for listening to The Dan Patrick Show podcast.

I'm like, 0:17:23.320 --> 0:17:26.560 I'm double checking. We follow Ramona and yeah, and I 0:17:26.600 --> 0:17:28.320 was like, that's it can't be real. 0:17:28.359 --> 0:17:28.760 And it was. 0:17:29.440 --> 0:17:30.920 We were nervous to put it on the air because 0:17:30.920 --> 0:17:33.360 we're a big in LA and big pause there. 0:17:33.760 --> 0:17:37.359 Wow, I mean that's I think surprise is the first 0:17:37.400 --> 0:17:40.080 part of this story. You know what, Let's bring in 0:17:40.160 --> 0:17:45.359 Ramona Shelburn ESPN Senior Insider and my dear friend, Ramona, 0:17:45.400 --> 0:17:48.120 it's the craziest week of your year and you took 0:17:48.160 --> 0:17:49.840 time for me.

But that's our entire audience, right, MoMA, you 0:18:01.400 --> 0:18:04.880 had to feel you were being punked and spoofed as well. 0:18:04.960 --> 0:18:05.840 Right when this happened. 0:18:07.080 --> 0:18:07.719 I'll tell you this. 0:18:08.119 --> 0:18:12.399 I had gone to bed the night before thinking, well, 0:18:12.440 --> 0:18:13.879 I was it was one of those nights where I 0:18:13.920 --> 0:18:16.520 have to sleep with my phone like right next to 0:18:16.560 --> 0:18:19.960 my head, waiting for a call in the morning, right 0:18:20.080 --> 0:18:22.760 like like literally like like I'll take my phone and 0:18:22.800 --> 0:18:26.320 I'll put it like like right here, because I knew 0:18:26.359 --> 0:18:31.200 I was gonna get calls like very early in the morning. 0:18:31.359 --> 0:18:34.800 And I had known the night before that something big 0:18:34.920 --> 0:18:35.840 was happening. 0:18:35.480 --> 0:18:36.679 But even I didn't believe it. 0:18:36.720 --> 0:18:38.840 Like when I got the first tip, literally somebody said 0:18:38.840 --> 0:18:41.040 are you sitting down? 0:18:40.800 --> 0:18:42.440 And I was. 0:18:42.320 --> 0:18:44.320 Liked, who died? 0:18:44.400 --> 0:18:45.399 What? Like I mean it was? 0:18:45.480 --> 0:18:47.280 I mean, look, I'm gonna take you inside the like 0:18:47.600 --> 0:18:51.920 real reality of it. Yesterday was my second gradest, first 0:18:51.960 --> 0:18:52.600 day of school. 0:18:52.720 --> 0:18:54.000 We were mostly we had hosted. 0:18:54.040 --> 0:18:56.879 We were hosting some family, like I had done the 0:18:56.920 --> 0:18:58.240 big dinner for everyone. 0:18:58.400 --> 0:18:59.800 You know, we were just kind of winding on. 0:19:00.200 --> 0:19:04.200 Momo. It's still momo. How did you confirm it? Though? 0:19:04.240 --> 0:19:06.400 I mean, honestly, I need to know how it can't 0:19:06.640 --> 0:19:09.000 I can't get past how this came together in three days, 0:19:09.040 --> 0:19:13.040 all right. I mean I can't go shopping online in 0:19:13.080 --> 0:19:15.280 three days. And this is like I went shopping online 0:19:15.320 --> 0:19:17.880 and I bought the Bollaggio. I mean, what is this? 0:19:18.359 --> 0:19:21.199 Yeah? 0:19:22.000 --> 0:19:24.760 I think it really is that. Like it's think of 0:19:24.760 --> 0:19:27.159 it like you're buying a house. Okay, you you go 0:19:27.280 --> 0:19:29.080 put an offer down on one house, and then all 0:19:29.080 --> 0:19:31.680 of a sudden, while you're like, you know, out you're 0:19:31.680 --> 0:19:34.399 still an escrow or you know they've accepted your offer, 0:19:34.440 --> 0:19:37.000 but they're but you know, there's still a closing period. 0:19:37.920 --> 0:19:40.840 You're down the street, your neighbor's house comes available. You're like, oh, well, shoot, 0:19:40.880 --> 0:19:44.680 I'd much rather have that house. So the money's already 0:19:44.720 --> 0:19:47.480
