Like, even when I think 473 00:20:40,800 --> 00:20:44,080 Speaker 1: about Dirk Free Dirt, it's like They had a whole 474 00:20:44,119 --> 00:20:48,600 Speaker 1: campaign from nerds with the slide of onactly and for me, 475 00:20:49,600 --> 00:20:53,639 Speaker 1: the internet by it self one't powerful enough. Yeah, the 476 00:20:53,680 --> 00:20:56,320 Speaker 1: Internet by self onen't powerful enough if you ask me 477 00:20:56,440 --> 00:21:02,000 Speaker 1: to like trigger anything. But coming from Chicago, it's almost 478 00:21:02,040 --> 00:21:05,920 Speaker 1: like being in Alabama and a college football team where 479 00:21:05,960 --> 00:21:09,520 Speaker 1: you say, we play rough Chicago.
