00:03:42,960 --> 00:03:44,600
Speaker 1: for you now? Because it's something to see.

73
00:03:44,440 --> 00:03:45,000

00:09:49,160 --> 00:09:51,079
Speaker 3: it's just fun going to work with him every day.

207
00:09:52,840 --> 00:09:56,480
Speaker 3: Very similar personalities, So we talk quite a bit.

208
00:09:58,800 --> 00:10:00,439
Speaker 5: Actually one just one more quick. I wonder if I

209
00:10:00,520 --> 00:10:02,240
Speaker 5: just know your background. It looks like you were a

210
00:10:02,280 --> 00:10:06,200
Speaker 5: wrestler to high school. They could teach drafting and other

211
00:10:06,240 --> 00:10:08,079
Speaker 5: guys going to look at a wrestling background. What is

212
00:10:08,080 --> 00:10:11,040
Speaker 5: it about wrestling that that makes for a good office point?

213
00:10:13,360 --> 00:10:15,040
Speaker 1: You know, there there's a lot of things that hand

214
00:10:15,080 --> 00:10:17,199
Speaker 1: fighting the hips. Uh, I don't know.

215
00:10:17,280 --> 00:10:19,880
Speaker 3: I In my case, I think it's more the mental

216
00:10:19,960 --> 00:10:26,360
Speaker 3: toughness you get from it, you know, staying low, getting

217
00:10:26,360 --> 00:10:28,760
Speaker 3: in those awkward positions, you know, fighting out of them.

218
00:10:28,920 --> 00:10:31,240
Speaker 3: But yeah, I think the m main thing is mental

219
00:10:31,280 --> 00:10:33,599
Speaker 3: toughness that helped me. It's not an easy sport to do,

220
00:10:34,880 --> 00:10:38,760
Speaker 3: but yeah, thanks than
