Speaker 2: a good point. Your brother's actually doing better than means
Speaker 2: Karen me this morning. Welcome in another episode What's Right?
Speaker 2: Nick Right? The podcast the YouTube show like great subscribe review.
Speaker 2: I'm hearing we're actually falling behind a bit on audio
Speaker 2: subscribers doing great on YouTube. So if you liked the podcast,
Speaker 2: you can tweet about at ig about it, TikTok about it,
Speaker 2: or tell your friends, and if you're listening to the
Speaker 2: podcast but you're not subscribing, go ahead and subscribe. Tell
Speaker 2: other people to subscribe. Do all that, so tell them
Speaker 2: about the podcast. We got caught a bit and not
Speaker 2: really caught, but for the really, for the first time,
Speaker 2: we were in an unwinnable situation with Tuesday's pod. We
Speaker 2: record of these podcasts the afternoon of the day before
Speaker 2: they're released. We do that so our graphics people can
Speaker 2: do stuff, so then get up on YouTube all that stuff.
Speaker 2: So we did a huge portion of Tuesday's pod on
Speaker 2: Kyrie Irving's Future, and then about five hours, probably less
Speaker 2: than that. A few hours after we finished recording, Kyrie
Speaker 2: Irving opted in to his deal with the NETS. Now,
Speaker 2: I would feel worse about not having a heads up
Speaker 2: on that until I found out the NETS also didn't
Speaker 2: have a heads up on that. Then they found out
Speaker 2: the way we all did via sham Sharania. So I'm
Speaker 2: telling you all that to say this. The reason we
Speaker 2: couldn't re record is because I was at a Yankee game.
Speaker 2: Demanse wasn't invited. I took Diora or his younger sister
Speaker 2: and her two friends to the Yankee game. Were you
Speaker 2: bothered by that, by the way, Yeah.
Speaker 3: I was actually really mad about missing the baseball game.
Speaker 2: Okay, well, you weren't mad about missing the baseball game
Speaker 2: that I know. However, I also know that it was
Speaker 2: a little weird because when I found out I had
Speaker 2: the tickets, I said, you were in the kitchen. I said, Deora,
Speaker 2: invite friends if they can't come, demanse and so, and
Speaker 2: you were like, oh, thanks, but that really was the situation. Yeah,
Speaker 2: And then Diora invited some friends and they couldn't go.
Speaker 2: Then she invited another group of friends they couldn't go,
Speaker 2: and finally you were almost in there. You were this
Speaker 2: close to being in there, but unfortunately Diora's like third
Speaker 2: pick of friends ended up rumping you going to the
Speaker 2: baseball game. So point is we couldn't re record. The
Speaker 2: reason I'm telling you that is a a bit of
Speaker 2: a mia kolpa for Tuesday and also a little you
Speaker 2: know update. As we are recording this Wednesday afternoon, free
Speaker 2: agency technically starts in the NBA or the early tampering
Speaker 2: period all that stuff tomorrow, which is when this comes out,
Speaker 2: So there is a possibility there is some breaking news
Speaker 2: between when we finish today and when you hear it tomorrow.
Speaker 2: If there is enough leeway, enough lead time, we'll add
Speaker 2: something to the show. But my guess is it's going
Speaker 2: to be pretty quiet over the next eighteen hours. We
Speaker 2: shall see, all right, So there is the preamble. Now
Speaker 2: we will get into the show, and as we always do,
Speaker 2: we will discuss what we are not discussing. What did
Speaker 2: not make the show today is oh my goodness, Serena
Speaker 2: losing it round one at Wimbledon, only the third time
Speaker 2: ever she's lost in the first round of a major.
Speaker 2: She didn't train, she was out of shape. She shows
Speaker 2: up to Wimbledon. Looked like it was going to be
Speaker 2: a stirring first round bick you didn't watch. She loses
Speaker 2: the first set i think, seven to five, wins the
Speaker 2: second set six to one, and then third set goes
Speaker 2: to a tiebreaker. She's she's two points away from winning
Speaker 2: the match, ends up losing in a tiebreaker ten seven. Sorry, Serena.
Speaker 2: Stream might never get that Margaret Court passing major. It's
Speaker 2: a shame she was so close that you was open
Speaker 2: a few years ago. The commanders extend scary Terry. That
Speaker 2: is Terry McLaurin, What are you laughing about nothing that
Speaker 2: I mentioned? Margaret Court?
Speaker 3: Do you know what I mean about the Open era?
Speaker 3: You did see the tennis match?
Speaker 2: You did not see the tennis match? All right, you
Speaker 2: are lying fair enough, of course, fair enough.
Speaker 3: We can agree to disagreement.
Speaker 2: We're not agreeing to disagree on anything. We are agreeing
Speaker 2: that you were What channel was it on?
Speaker 3: Seven? Seven? Oh?
Speaker 2: I love that you're learning from me if you just
Speaker 2: lie confidently and immediately it was on ESPN, by the way,
Speaker 2: and then a five hundred dollars NFL, NBA, NHL parlay.
Speaker 2: That's too hundred and seventy thousand dollars, guy bet on
Speaker 2: the Rams, the Warriors and the Colorado Avalanche all to
Speaker 2: win championships was five hundred dollars free bet and that's
Speaker 2: almost a quarter of a million bucks. Shoutout to team.
Speaker 2: All right, that is the longest preamble we've done.
Speaker 3: Let's say, for what we're not doing. That was a
Speaker 3: lot of a lot of what.
Speaker 2: We're not doing about the server show. Okay, what what
Speaker 2: are we doing today? Go ahead and start our new
Speaker 2: sixteen minute club.
Speaker 4: Kyrie and Russ are both opting into their player options. Yeah,
Speaker 4: but teams are still expected to pursue Kyrie via trade.
Speaker 3: Yeah.
Speaker 4: Uh, you know, Lebron probably are most likely wants Russ
Speaker 4: out of there. Either one of these guys be on
Speaker 4: their current team by the start of the season.
Speaker 2: Oh, I think they're both going to be on their
Speaker 2: team by the start of the season. I do not
Speaker 2: think Kyrie is going to finish this season with the Nets.
Speaker 2: I think the whole thing, let's start with Kyrie, then
Speaker 2: we'll get to Russ. The whole thing with Kyrie and
Speaker 2: the Nets was uncomfortable, and the fact that he didn't
Speaker 2: inform the team he was opting in weird is weird.
Speaker 2: The fact that the team said, listen, find a sign
Speaker 2: in trade, you find someone that wants you shows that
Speaker 2: the Nets weren't exactly devastated the possibility, pardon me of
Speaker 2: him leaving. Brian Windhorst reported that Joe Sai was willing
Speaker 2: to lose Kyrie and Kevin Durant in order to avoid
Speaker 2: what happened last year, all the mayhem. And that leads
Speaker 2: me to believe that Kyrie is on his final strike.
Speaker 2: And so do we expect Kyrie to have perfect attendant,
Speaker 2: perfect behavior throughout the year. I think that's a tough one. Additionally,
Speaker 2: we found out that Kyrie would not be devastated about
Speaker 2: leaving the Nets, not only because he was trying to
Speaker 2: go to one of six other places, but also what
Speaker 2: was what's been reported in the last forty eight hours
Speaker 2: is that the Nets offered him multiple contracts that were
Speaker 2: longer term than just one year. He turned them all down.
Speaker 2: His only, you know, counter offer was a one year
Speaker 2: essentially the deal he's on now, plus a player option,
Speaker 2: Meaning Kyrie was not willing to accept any contract that
Speaker 2: guaranteed he was going to be with the Nets long term.
Speaker 2: And so to me, this is a marriage of necessity
Speaker 2: at the moment, this is a situation.
Speaker 3: To the Lakers. A little bit later, well, I don't.
Speaker 2: Know if the Lakers, if I know, people keep bringing
Speaker 2: up the Kyrie for rusting the Nets, don't want that.
Speaker 2: So I don't know that there is a viable path
Speaker 2: to the Lakers. But I feel like this is a
Speaker 2: toxic relationship right now, but a divorce the both parties
Speaker 2: feel like they can't afford it, and so it's not great.
Speaker 2: And so I don't know that Kyrie is going to
Speaker 2: finish the season with the Nets. Now we go to Russ.
Speaker 2: The Lakers fact, Joe Bamboo of The Athletic you Know,
Speaker 2: just reported that they are still shopping Russ, but they
Speaker 2: are unwilling to attach any draft picks to him to
Speaker 2: get him off the team. It is just baffling to
Speaker 2: me that the Lakers have convinced themselves that either the
Speaker 2: twenty twenty seven or the twenty twenty nine first round
Speaker 2: pick is this incredibly valuable thing, because what that implies
Speaker 2: is the Lakers think they're going to be really bad
Speaker 2: in short order. Why would you think that. So, let's so,
Speaker 2: here's the Lebron piece. Lebron likely isn't going to be
Speaker 2: on the team in a year. Okay. If he is
Speaker 2: on the team, it's because he's still excellent. If he's
Speaker 2: not on the team, you have all that cap space
Speaker 2: that has opened up, and you are the Lakers of
Speaker 2: the number one free agent destination of the last fifty
Speaker 2: years in the NBA. Additionally, you have locked into his contract,
Speaker 2: Anthony Davis in the prime of his career. Why are
Speaker 2: you doing all these things, operating as if while by
Speaker 2: twenty twenty five we're going to be terrible. In twenty
Speaker 2: twenty five, you're either going to have I guess still
Speaker 2: have Lebron if he's playing at this level, which is
Speaker 2: highly unlikely, or you're going to have the cap space
Speaker 2: that Lebron's fifty million coming off the books creates, and
Speaker 2: you're going to have Anthony Davis on your team. So
Speaker 2: I just don't like how the Lakers have been operating.
Speaker 2: I think it's incredibly foolish. I think they're the fact
Speaker 2: that they at that. You look at the Lakers over
Speaker 2: the last forty years, none of their stars were homegrown guys.
Speaker 2: There are trades and and free agent signings, and so
Speaker 2: that's how they got Lebron, It's how they got Anthony Davis.
Speaker 2: It's how they got Shack. They traded for Kobe on
Speaker 2: Draft Day. I mean, you go back to Eddie Jones
Speaker 2: and so Kareem. Yes, they drafted Magic, they drafted Worthy,
Speaker 2: but they even acquired Wilt Like it just doesn't make
Speaker 2: sense to me how they're running things in Los Angeles.
Speaker 2: I don't think Russ is gonna magically work there. I
Speaker 2: don't think he's magically gonna become a good defender. So no,
Speaker 2: I am as pessimistic about this season for the Lakers
Speaker 2: as I have been for any Lebron James season of
Speaker 2: my entire life. All Right, what's next?
Speaker 3: It was a great understandable take right there.
Speaker 2: Thanks, buddy, I appreciate that. I like the positive reinforcement.
Speaker 2: You can tell I was a little down before the show.
Speaker 2: You're trying to pick me up. I appreciate it. All right,
Speaker 2: go ahead, Hey.
Speaker 3: Got you man.
Speaker 4: Houston bought out John Wall. Yeah, he's signing with the Clippers.
Speaker 3: So PG thirteen, KWHI.
Speaker 4: And John Wall would have been a great big three
Speaker 4: maybe about five ten years ago.
Speaker 2: Okay, But which LA team do you.
Speaker 3: Think is more delusional in their chances at winning a title?
Speaker 2: Oh? I think the Clippers can win the title. I
Speaker 2: thought the Clippers were poised to be one of the
Speaker 2: two best teams in the West before they added John Wall.
Speaker 2: Now I don't think John Wall is a real needle mover.
Speaker 2: He could be. I think anyone that is coming out
Speaker 2: today or this week with a like an incredibly strong
Speaker 2: John Wall take is being a little disingenuous John Wall.
Speaker 2: I'm doing this off the top of my head, Buddy,
Speaker 2: believe this to be true. His last five years games
Speaker 2: played forty one thirty two zero forty zero. He has
Speaker 2: not played more than forty one games in any the
Speaker 2: last five years, and in the last three years combined
Speaker 2: he played forty total games. He has had a couple
Speaker 2: horrific injuries, and then last year the Rockets just put
Speaker 2: him on Ioilu. So anyone acting like you're going to
Speaker 2: get twenty point nine assists dynamic John Wall, I think
Speaker 2: they're being misleading. Flipside, is this anyone acting like, oh,
Speaker 2: John Wall clearly has nothing left, You're just well, people
Speaker 2: thought that about a much older player, Al Horford, whose
Speaker 2: team year before this sat him the whole year. The
Speaker 2: way Houston sat John Wall the year off actually helped
Speaker 2: Al Horford and he was excellent. Now, the problem with
Speaker 2: Wall is he's never been a great shooter. He's relied
Speaker 2: on his athleticism, and that athleticism obviously is not the same.
Speaker 2: And now that he's into his thirties, and now that
Speaker 2: he's suffered the injuries. But do I think John Wall
Speaker 2: could be better than Reggie Jackson? I absolutely do. Do
Speaker 2: I think it's worth the seven million bucks for the Clippers?
Speaker 2: Absolutely so? If and Kawhi also just had a year off,
Speaker 2: I know he was rehabbing the acl But I think
Speaker 2: the Clippers they have an excellent coach. If Kawhi and
Speaker 2: Paul George are healthy, I think that they are not
Speaker 2: going to deal with some of the leadership issues they
Speaker 2: dealt with their first year together with when Doc Rivers
Speaker 2: was there. So I trust Tyleru. Kawhi is excellent when
Speaker 2: he's available. Anything you get from John Wall's a bonus.
Speaker 2: So I don't think the Clipper are being delusional about
Speaker 2: their title chances at all. I think the Lakers right
Speaker 2: now have no title chances. I think the Lakers absolutely
Speaker 2: are delusional if they think they are a title contending
Speaker 2: team with the moves that they've made, with which are
Speaker 2: no moves whatsoever, they're going to lose people. All Right,
Speaker 2: what's next?
Speaker 3: Your best pal? Draymond had some funny things to say
Speaker 3: on his podcast.
Speaker 4: Yeah, I said that they wouldn't they would have beat
Speaker 4: the war I mean they would have beat the Rockets
Speaker 4: without Katie, but wouldn't have beaten the Caves without Katie.
Speaker 3: Huh.
Speaker 4: So obviously you know you're gonna defend Lebron's legacy here. Okay,
Speaker 4: why would he say these things?
Speaker 2: Well, I don't know why Draymond would say these things
Speaker 2: other than the content. You know, wheel keeps on spinning
Speaker 2: and he's got to create it. You know, I haven't
Speaker 2: said anything about Andrew Wiggins late. He skips on vacation,
Speaker 2: steven A's on vacation, so his real passion of media criticism,
Speaker 2: he didn't have anything, you know, new barriers pluck there,
Speaker 2: so he instead he just said, you know, Steph couldn't
Speaker 2: create his own shot and they wouldn't have beaten the
Speaker 2: Caves without Katie. So do I agree with him? Yes,
Speaker 2: I do agree with him. Do I agree with him though,
Speaker 2: that they would have beaten the twenty eighteen Rockets, I
Speaker 2: actually don't. They almost lost the twenty eighteen Rockets with Katie.
Speaker 2: They're three two in that series, and then Chris Paul
Speaker 2: got hurt. But here is what I find interesting, And
Speaker 2: this is where I'm going to talk about Lebron because
Speaker 2: this is why I find the count the Rings part
Speaker 2: of the Goat debate so reductive and so boring, because
Speaker 2: who is better Michael Jordan or Lebron James. Something that
Speaker 2: should not factor into that debate at all is Kevin
Speaker 2: Durant's life decisions, But it ended up being maybe for
Speaker 2: most people the determining factor because let's just take let's
Speaker 2: say Draymond, who did play in these series. Let's say
Speaker 2: he's correct that the Warriors would have lost to the
Speaker 2: Cavs in twenty seventeen and twenty eighteen without Kevin Durant.
Speaker 2: If that would have happened, Lebron would now be sitting
Speaker 2: here with six rings.
Speaker 3: Yep.
Speaker 2: And if Lebron had six rings, including a three peat,
Speaker 2: which Draymond's talking about, then it would probably be eighty
Speaker 2: five fifteen Lebron versus mGy as far as who the
Speaker 2: goat is. Instead, it's about eighty five to fifteen the
Speaker 2: other direction because it's six rings to four instead of
Speaker 2: six rings to six. But Kevin Durant's life decisions have
Speaker 2: should not be correlated at all with who's the better
Speaker 2: basketball player, Michael Jordan or Lebron James. But it skews
Speaker 2: the debate more than just about anything imaginable. And so yeah,
Speaker 2: I do agree with I think the best we have
Speaker 2: ever seen Lebron, as good as he was in Miami,
Speaker 2: was the greatest stretch of his career was the final
Speaker 2: three games of the twenty sixteen finals up until the
Speaker 2: first game of the twenty eighteen finals. That's the j R.
Speaker 2: Smith game. Yeah, and then you know, Lebron punches the
Speaker 2: wall in the locker room after the game, messes up
Speaker 2: his hand. They end up losing the last three games.
Speaker 2: But that playoff run in twenty eighteen is the highest
Speaker 2: level of basketball anyone has ever played. He had two
Speaker 2: buzzer beaters to win games. He had eight forty point games.
Speaker 2: He had fifty one eight to eight in Game one
Speaker 2: of the finals. Almost. I think it's the greatest game
Speaker 2: anyone's ever played, almost single handedly beating that Warriors team,
Speaker 2: and Katie was the difference. And so I just find
Speaker 2: if you think Jordan or Kareem or Wilt or Lebron
Speaker 2: or hell, there's maybe maybe a small case he made
Speaker 2: for magic. Any of those guys are the greatest players ever.
Speaker 2: I will listen to you. But when it just comes
Speaker 2: down to just the rings, Like that's that movie where,
Speaker 2: oh gosh, I forget the movie. It's like Paul Rudd's
Speaker 2: in it, Jason Segal's in it. They're arguing with these
Speaker 2: little kids, and the little black kid says to him, Uh,
Speaker 2: it's the the only argument you have is six rings.
Speaker 2: And Jason Sagall yells back in his face. It's the
Speaker 2: only argument.
Speaker 3: I need, Brian, bottles, bottles, bottle gold.
Speaker 2: Maybe role model someone telling you something old bottles instead
Speaker 2: of role models trying to do tho. I think I
Speaker 2: remember it. Oh they're telling me, but I can't quite
Speaker 2: hear them correctly. Roll on of this. But sorry, buddy,
Speaker 2: but that really is what it is. It really is.
Speaker 2: And so I just find that argument to be uh,
Speaker 2: a little banal and a and a little trite for
Speaker 2: what could be.
Speaker 3: A little bit of trite, A little bit of a
Speaker 3: little bit of trite.
Speaker 4: All right, well, what yeah, yeah, okay, banal b in
Speaker 4: a L.
Speaker 2: B A A L. Would you like definition lacking in
Speaker 2: originality as to become obvious and boring?
Speaker 3: Dude?
Speaker 2: Is that not the perfect word? Stellar use of thank
Speaker 2: you appreciate that. Good job. You should work that into
Speaker 2: your your lexicon.
Speaker 3: All right, what's next my lexicon?
Speaker 2: Let's do it.
Speaker 4: Free agency starts this Thursday. It's possible that all these guys.
Speaker 3: Were about to talk about are all signed by the
Speaker 3: time you guys hear this.
Speaker 2: Yep.
Speaker 4: Uh, But we want to know what what what are
Speaker 4: the best fits in free agency? The big names like
Speaker 4: Bradley Beal, Zach Lavine, Jalen Brunson, and DeAndre Ayden.
Speaker 3: So instead of predicting, we came up with a little
Speaker 3: dating game.
Speaker 2: A dating game, yep, okay, what's that?
Speaker 3: So?
Speaker 4: Uh, you know, we're going to show you a player
Speaker 4: and then we stripe right.
Speaker 3: On which team exactly. Uh.
Speaker 4: Each card will have their own little attributes and stuff.
Speaker 4: But the people will see this.
Speaker 3: Okay. So if you're oh, I'm sorry, know it's me.
Speaker 2: Yeah, go ahead. I have a question in a moment.
Speaker 3: So, if you're Jalen Brunson, who are you swiping on?
Speaker 2: The MAVs? Are the Knicks? So here's my question. We
Speaker 2: were going to show it the Okay, don't worry about something.
Speaker 2: Don't worry about it.
Speaker 3: You're fine.
Speaker 2: You're whispering into the microphones. Not actually, uh, I don't
Speaker 2: know which way to do. Don't don't go through the
Speaker 2: graphics yet. I am I'm only thirty seven, but I've
Speaker 2: been with your mom for fifteen years.
Speaker 3: You're about to say something about tender.
Speaker 2: Correct, which is so I stopped being single in like
Speaker 2: seven o eight, yeah, which pre dates all the apps. Yeah,
Speaker 2: so I've never had a think. But that was a
Speaker 2: website back then. Okay, I don't think it was an app.
Speaker 2: My point is this is swipe right, good or bad.
Speaker 3: Swiping right is great.
Speaker 2: Swipe so you want to so right, yes, sir?
Speaker 3: Okay? Like the team.
Speaker 2: So if you're Jalen Brunson, should you'd be swiping right now?
Speaker 3: We can show them on the Dallas Mavericks.
Speaker 2: Dallas Mavericks or the New York Knicks. I think for Brunson,
Speaker 2: the MAVs obviously make more sense. I am also I
Speaker 2: also believe he's signing with the Knicks. I think giving
Speaker 2: Jalen Brunson four years for one hundred and ten million
Speaker 2: is wildly irresponsible for the Knicks, and I am glad
Speaker 2: the MAVs are not doing. I understand the MAVs might
Speaker 2: be taking a slight step back with this, but you
Speaker 2: Jalen Brunson is a nice player. He is not good
Speaker 2: enough for him to be Luca's one other you know,
Speaker 2: max near max level player if you're gonna go win titles.
Speaker 3: I think it's not great, but.
Speaker 2: It's not great, but it doesn't lock them into a
Speaker 2: team with a hard ceiling. So I would tell Jalen
Speaker 2: if the MAVs are offering you five to four for
Speaker 2: one hundred. Take that. I listen. His dad coaches with
Speaker 2: the Knicks, His former agent run the Knicks. His current
Speaker 2: agent's dad runs is the guy running the Knicks. There's
Speaker 2: all these connections, they've cleared, all this cap space. He's
Speaker 2: gonna pick the Knicks for four for one ten, which
Speaker 2: is just too much money for Jalen Brunson. All right,
Speaker 2: what's next?
Speaker 3: If you're Bradley Beal? Were you swiping on Washington Wizards
Speaker 3: or Miami Heat?
Speaker 2: Okay, so Beal's not Beal. I believe he is a
Speaker 2: free agent. But I believe what Beal's going to do,
Speaker 2: or he could be a free agent I should say,
Speaker 2: is take the max from Washington and then if he
Speaker 2: wants to leave, askout later, which is something NBA teams
Speaker 2: are getting very frustrated with guys doing taking the max
Speaker 2: money from the hometown if you will team, and then
Speaker 2: a year or two later asking out. But Beal seems
Speaker 2: to like it in Washington. They're gonna give him five
Speaker 2: for two point fifty or close to it. He's going
Speaker 2: to pick Washington. Obviously, if you're actually chasing a ring,
Speaker 2: you'd be better off trying to find your way down
Speaker 2: to Miami. But I do not think that's realistic at all.
Speaker 4: All Right, what's last, Okay, DeAndre Ayton, you are swiping?
Speaker 4: Or the San Antonio Spurs or the Atlanta Hawks.
Speaker 2: Oh? I The Atlanta Hawks to me is, without a question,
Speaker 2: the Spurs. I don't under the Spurs. First of all,
Speaker 2: you don't know the coach is gonna be long term,
Speaker 2: because I think Pop is gonna move, is gonna retire soon.
Speaker 2: Second of all, they might be trading away their best player,
Speaker 2: Dejontay Murray the Hawks. Meanwhile, I like Trey a lot.
Speaker 2: He's not where he needs to be yet. I like
Speaker 2: some of their other young pieces, and I think DeAndre
Speaker 2: Ayton could be excellent for them. So I am absolutely
Speaker 2: going with the Atlanta Hawks. I'm swiping right on the
Speaker 2: Atlanta Hawks if I'm DeAndre Ayton. Great job, by the way,
Speaker 2: on these little if you're watching on YouTube, if you're
Speaker 2: not watching on YouTube, this is a segment to go
Speaker 2: check out on YouTube because the little title cards of
Speaker 2: these guys, their tender profile pictures, is really the embarrassing moment.
Speaker 2: Fun facts, favorite quotes, It's very fun. I was watching
Speaker 2: it while we were doing because I hadn't seen those. Okay,
Speaker 2: we almost hit the clock. The reason we didn't was
Speaker 2: because you screwed up the game. You didn't know how
Speaker 2: to get us into it. Were whispering into the microphone.
Speaker 2: You have to take that l not me. We'll be
Speaker 2: right now.

Speaker 2: I gave you the definition of panol. Do you know
Speaker 2: the definition of trite?
Speaker 3: Yeah? Do you? It's synonym of banal.
Speaker 2: Not quite, but there's a good What if I say it's.
Speaker 4: Trite, I guess wait, say it in another sentence, like, so,
Speaker 4: give me some context.
Speaker 2: It will do this because I now know people can
Speaker 2: feed things into your ears. What's happening right now is
Speaker 2: Demanse is stalling, and the reason he needs a stall
Speaker 2: is because our control room also doesn't know the definition
Speaker 2: of pretty basic. I these words, so they need the
Speaker 2: time to google it.
Speaker 4: I'm not stalling at all. Nobody's going nobody say anything
Speaker 4: to me. That was me talking to you. Yep, you
Speaker 4: got him. They're not gonna say anything. You just saw them.
Speaker 2: I don't trust those people.
Speaker 3: I just think that you can't use it in another sentence.
Speaker 2: It's well, you were right that it is a synonym
Speaker 2: of branal. Yeah, so it's like something if something is
Speaker 2: cliche or something is it means just unarriginal. Okay, so yeah,
Speaker 2: they are a little redumbing.
Speaker 3: But I'm telling you, I can't wait to use that word.
Speaker 2: Which one try.
Speaker 3: It's a pretty it's a funny one.
Speaker 2: It's a funny one.
Speaker 3: I feel like somebody would slap me in my face
Speaker 3: saying it.
Speaker 2: You hang with a lot of people that use physical violence.
Speaker 2: If someone says a word they don't understand, that's your crew.
Speaker 2: Your crew is just handing out opening the barbarians, trying
Speaker 2: to educate them. You drop air udyite in the conversation,
Speaker 2: all of a sudden, you get punched in the head. Dude,
Speaker 2: that's that's who you're hanging with.
Speaker 3: A man, let's talk about Baker Mayfield.
Speaker 2: Okay, you ready for this? You want to start the segment? Okay,
Speaker 2: all right, welcome back in What's Right with Nick Wright.
Speaker 2: We're gonna play a game in just a moment. It's
Speaker 2: everyone's favorite new game, Nick Wright Public Defender. But before that,
Speaker 2: let's talk Baker Mayfield. Go right ahead to mase up.
Speaker 4: With Deshaun Watson potentially getting suspended. Mayfield says, both sides
Speaker 4: are ready to move on. But or sorry, but he
Speaker 4: hasn't burned any bridges with the Brownship.
Speaker 2: No, he hasn't. If they were handled himself quite well.
Speaker 2: For all the Baker Mayfield critics out there, he's handled
Speaker 2: this whole situation quite well.
Speaker 4: But go ahead, right And he said if they were
Speaker 4: to make up, it would be on the Browns to
Speaker 4: reach out. Yeah, and no team seemed to be exactly
Speaker 4: drooling at the thought of Baker Mayfield.
Speaker 3: But the Browns, the Browns may be without Watson for
Speaker 3: the year, and they don't own their trade pit or
Speaker 3: their picks. Yep. So who needs who more? Baker or
Speaker 3: the Browns.
Speaker 2: They need each other. And this is what the Browns
Speaker 2: need to do. Okay, because the Deshaun Watson trade might
Speaker 2: go down as the worst trade in NFL history. It's
Speaker 2: on the board. They traded all those picks, gave him
Speaker 2: all that guaranteed money, and it is on the board
Speaker 2: that he never plays it. I'm not saying I'm predicting
Speaker 2: he never plays again, but that could happen. And it
Speaker 2: is overwhelmingly likely that he misses at least ten games,
Speaker 2: maybe the full season, maybe more than that.
Speaker 3: So and it is are they a verdict right now?
Speaker 2: Well, right now there his people are meeting with the
Speaker 2: NFL's people and there, but ultimately the NFL is going
Speaker 2: to decide what they want, and he might end up
Speaker 2: being fought in actual court, not just NFL court. It's
Speaker 2: gonna take some time. The Browns, because they don't own
Speaker 2: their picks, because they're theoretically a good team, they can't
Speaker 2: go into the your Jacoby Weresett and I like Jacoby.
Speaker 2: They can't go into your Jacoby as their starting quarterback. Baker, meanwhile,
Speaker 2: has there's no team that seems to be thirsting at
Speaker 2: the idea of him being the starting quarterback, and any
Speaker 2: team that would want him is going to be a
Speaker 2: terrible team like Seattle, So it isn't everyone's best interest.
Speaker 2: So if I were Cleveland by Andrew Berry, I call
Speaker 2: Baker Mayfield. I'm like, see, let's get together, Baker, all
Speaker 2: come to you right and listen, man, you don't like us.
Speaker 2: We understand. We'd like to tell you we like you,
Speaker 2: but our actions speak otherwise. We hope you understand. However,
Speaker 2: you want a big, long term, guaranteed contract. We want
Speaker 2: to win as many games as possible this year. Our
Speaker 2: incentives are actually aligned right now, right, So what we
Speaker 2: would like for you to do is coming and be
Speaker 2: our starting quarterback. For listen, If Deshaun only gets a
Speaker 2: half year suspension, that's that's perfect because the trade deadline's
Speaker 2: right around Week eight. You play well, someone then will
Speaker 2: want you, will trade you there. If he gets suspended
Speaker 2: for the whole year, you play for us the entire
Speaker 2: season and here and you play well. Now all of
Speaker 2: a sudden you have real value and you'll be a
Speaker 2: true free agent. Here's what we'll give you. We will
Speaker 2: amend your contract not for more money, but we will
Speaker 2: amend your contract so it says we cannot franchise Tag
Speaker 2: and that will if we trade you, that team won't
Speaker 2: be able to franchise tag you either. That way, after
Speaker 2: this year, you are a true free agent. You ball out,
Speaker 2: we win, you win a We don't have to like
Speaker 2: each other in order to work together. That is absolutely
Speaker 2: what the Browns should do. I wonder if they will
Speaker 2: have the you know, if the will swallow their pride enough,
Speaker 2: because I think Baker would do it because Baker wants
Speaker 2: to play and Baker wants to prove to the world
Speaker 2: he's still a high level starting quarterback in this league.
Speaker 4: Go ahead, Yeah, no, I mean, I think I think
Speaker 4: that playing for the bread playing for the Browns is
Speaker 4: definitely Baker Mayfield's best.
Speaker 2: Best option right now. It's his best option without question.
Speaker 2: The Browns need to open that door. I think they should.
Speaker 2: I think Baker's handled this about as well as anyone can.
Speaker 2: And listen, the Browns that it's not. That doesn't save
Speaker 2: the Browns from the fact that they were one and
Speaker 2: thirty one to two years before they got Baker Mayfield.
Speaker 2: They then got annoyed that he wasn't one of the
Speaker 2: five best quarterbacks in football. Right, So they traded all
Speaker 2: their picks and gave all this guaranteed money to a
Speaker 2: guy who may never play for them, but at least
Speaker 2: for this season it could salvage it. All right, time
Speaker 2: for the game, now, Nick Right, public defender? What are
Speaker 2: you doing? What are you reaching for? Oh? Yo, you
Speaker 2: got props? You have a gabble? Hold on? What else
Speaker 2: do you have?
Speaker 3: Oh?
Speaker 2: This is getting zany.
Speaker 3: I get it.
Speaker 2: Why do I get a gabble?
Speaker 3: Oh?
Speaker 2: It, says Nick Right, public defender?
Speaker 3: On it?
Speaker 2: Let me see yours? Does yours say anything? Demon's day,
Speaker 2: judge and jury? All right, well, just so I listen.
Speaker 2: I'm surprised. Oh you have a judge's wig. I didn't
Speaker 2: you gotta put this on?
Speaker 3: Yeah?
Speaker 2: Oh this is great. Oh I love it. By the way,
Speaker 2: I'm surprised because a lot of our producers, I'm sure,
Speaker 2: have spent a lot of time in and out of courtrooms.
Speaker 2: The lawyers don't get gabbles. I do appreciate that you
Speaker 2: guys gave me one, but I shouldn't have one. Demonsey
Speaker 2: should have one. Okay, who's my first client?
Speaker 3: Ugh?
Speaker 4: So Nick traded away their draft picks cleared up cap
Speaker 4: space for Kimba, hired Jalen Brunce's dad to coach and
Speaker 4: potentially recruit him. Uh. Are they going all in on RJ.
Speaker 4: Barrett and Jalen bruns in future defend the next year?
Speaker 3: All right?
Speaker 2: Let me say this on the front end of at
Speaker 2: least this one. I want to make this very clear.
Speaker 2: I do not like what the Knicks are doing, Okay,
Speaker 2: and I am Nick right. The idea of Nick Wright
Speaker 2: public defender is I have to defend things no matter what,
Speaker 2: even if I don't agree with them. Okay. So I
Speaker 2: don't want anyone to clip this like, oh no yet,
Speaker 2: we're not in court yet. I'm just letting the audience
Speaker 2: know how this works.
Speaker 3: Okay.
Speaker 2: So who's my client? The Knicks, and I need to
Speaker 2: defend their offseason? Yes, okay, so I'm I'm defending Leon
Speaker 2: Rose worldwide West For all of you out there criticize
Speaker 2: that our moves of acquiring B level players like a
Speaker 2: Julius Randall, like a Jalen Brunson stocking up draft picks,
Speaker 2: all of you folks saying that isn't the way you're
Speaker 2: the Knicks. You're supposed to be big fish, big whale hunting.
Speaker 2: So who's the last superstar to say, you know what,
Speaker 2: I want to sign with the New York Nickson free
Speaker 2: agency our previousmes what they got an olda Marii Stodomar.
Speaker 2: They got an old Antonio mcdyce. They traded everything in
Speaker 2: the world for Carmelo Anthony, so they couldn't compete with
Speaker 2: Carmelo Anthony. How many times do you want the Knicks
Speaker 2: to follow the same path that hasn't worked out? Oh?
Speaker 2: You want me to hold this cap space? What? So
Speaker 2: I can then overpay in a trade for Donovan Mitchell.
Speaker 2: I could trade all RJ. Barrett and other pieces and
Speaker 2: draft picks to get Donovan Mitchell. Or I can just
Speaker 2: sign out right a player who is seventy five percent
Speaker 2: the cost of Donovan Mitchell but eighty percent the player
Speaker 2: in Jalen Brunson and everyone criticizing Julius Randall. Yes, guy's
Speaker 2: not allowed to have one bad year. He was second
Speaker 2: team All NBA, he got MVP votes just a year ago,
Speaker 2: and RJ Barrett third overall pick of the draft. He
Speaker 2: played one year in college. Did you not see signs
Speaker 2: of improvement?
Speaker 3: I did?
Speaker 2: So what we are doing in New York is we
Speaker 2: are still going to have some cap flexibility. We are
Speaker 2: building a call it minimized big three of RJ. Barrett,
Speaker 2: who one day will be the best player on the team,
Speaker 2: Julius Randalls is the second best player, Jalen Brunson's the
Speaker 2: third best player. Plus having these draft picks, plus having
Speaker 2: the cap flexibility. So in case, what if Kevin Durant
Speaker 2: sours on Brooklyn but doesn't want to leave the city
Speaker 2: of New York where his businesses are set up. What
Speaker 2: if Kyrie Irving all of a sudden next off season decides,
Speaker 2: you know what, I want to stay in New York,
Speaker 2: but I don't want to stay with the Nets because
Speaker 2: I'm angry at how they've treated me. Or what if
Speaker 2: the next superstar X like a Zion Williamson says, hey,
Speaker 2: I want to play with my college teammate RJ. Barrett.
Speaker 2: We're sorry. We're not trying to microwave this thing. We
Speaker 2: are trying to do a long term plan. Unlike all
Speaker 2: the previous Knicks regimes. I rest my case. Okay, can
Speaker 2: I some real quick?
Speaker 3: Is it once?
Speaker 2: No? That's fine? You did fine. I don't believe anything
Speaker 2: what I just said. I think that what the Knicks
Speaker 2: are doing is batshit insane. Okay, all right, what's my
Speaker 2: next client?
Speaker 3: Probably right, this is a this is a fun one.
Speaker 4: So Kendrick Perkins went on to a podcast with JJ
Speaker 4: Redik and Tommy Alter to say that he prayed that
Speaker 4: Lebron got hurt in the Eastern Conference Eastern semi Finals.
Speaker 4: Sin more specifically prayed that he tore his a c
Speaker 4: o U. JJ Redick and Tommy Alter try to give
Speaker 4: him out multiple times, but you know, he said, still
Speaker 4: put it up.
Speaker 3: Defend your client here, Kendrick Perkins.
Speaker 2: It's very simple. Uh, what do you want from your country?
Speaker 2: What do you want from your media? What do you
Speaker 2: want from your sports media?
Speaker 3: Honesty?
Speaker 2: Honesty, thank you your honor. That's what you know, That's
Speaker 2: what we expect in this courtroom. Do you want honesty
Speaker 2: or do you just want generic look it up your honor?
Speaker 2: Do you just want you know, just you know, just
Speaker 2: coach speaking, players speak of oh yeah, we always just
Speaker 2: want it. We want to play the best teams at
Speaker 2: their best. Or do you want a player to tell
Speaker 2: you the cold hard truth that you know what, I
Speaker 2: want to win the title. I don't care. I don't
Speaker 2: want to have to go through the best I want,
Speaker 2: the easiest path possible, and that twenty three year old
Speaker 2: Lebron James scared the hell out of me and my client,
Speaker 2: Kendrick Perkins. And so what By attacking Kendrick Perkins, you
Speaker 2: are attacking the truth. By attacking Kendrick Perkins, you are
Speaker 2: attacking the ability for anyone to ever be honest with
Speaker 2: their opinion if it goes against what dare I say
Speaker 2: the woke mob would demand. Now I know all of
Speaker 2: you would like to cancel Kendrick Perkins, because.
Speaker 3: I honestly don't want to. Can you respect the honesty?
Speaker 2: It's very refreshing, well, your honor. I'm not sure you're
Speaker 2: supposed to chime in with an opinion on this case.
Speaker 2: Maybe you're supposed to recuse yourself if you're bro Kendrick Perkins,
Speaker 2: maybe keep that to yourself and then in your chambers
Speaker 2: be like, ah, good, good point, my public defender, there
Speaker 2: order in the court or okay, I'm I'm ruling you
Speaker 2: out of order because you're not supposed to be giving
Speaker 2: an opinion here. Let's just move on to the next.
Speaker 3: One, all right, Let's do it.
Speaker 2: Uh.
Speaker 3: The Nathan's Hot dog eating contest is one day.
Speaker 4: Yeah, Joey Chessnut is one of fourteen of the last fifteen.
Speaker 3: Some say that he's the greatest athlete of all time.
Speaker 4: Uh huh, your client is anyone who thinks Joey Chestnut
Speaker 4: is the goat of goats?
Speaker 3: Defend them? Okay?
Speaker 2: I I would ask ladies and gentlemen of the jury
Speaker 2: and the prosecution to who who I'm against is, to
Speaker 2: who is Joey Chestnut competing against her? If the question
Speaker 2: is the greatest athlete to all time, I'm gonna say, oh,
Speaker 2: Michael Jordan. Basketball has been around for less than one
Speaker 2: hundred and fifty years. Oh, I think it's Muhammad Ali.
Speaker 2: Okay boxing in its present form has been around for
Speaker 2: two hundred and fifty years. Oh, I think it's Usain Bolt.
Speaker 2: Okay running has been around for a couple thousand years.
Speaker 2: You know what's been around longer than all of those
Speaker 2: by a factor of about fifty hot dogs eating? Oh
Speaker 2: and in fact, one could argue that Usain Bolt, Muhammad Ali,
Speaker 2: Michael Jordan none of them could have survived, let alone
Speaker 2: thrived without the one skill my client has mastered, which
Speaker 2: is eating. Now, can you eat without being able to run,
Speaker 2: you can. Can you run without being able to eat?
Speaker 2: You cannot? Can you throw a football like Tom Brady
Speaker 2: without being able to eat? Of course not. And in fact,
Speaker 2: the greatest athletes ever of the modern era, what do
Speaker 2: they spend a lot of time focusing on what they eat,
Speaker 2: how they eat their nutrition. My client, on the other hand,
Speaker 2: he's not just the greatest hot dog eating doesn't just
Speaker 2: hold hot dog eating championships. Basically every food out there.
Speaker 2: You want oysters, go to Joey Chestnut, You want chicken wings,
Speaker 2: go to my client Joey Chestnut. You want to see
Speaker 2: the guy who can drink the most lemonade, go to
Speaker 2: Joey Chestnut. So if someone people have literally been eating
Speaker 2: for as long as there have been people, there was
Speaker 2: never a period of time where people existed in eating,
Speaker 2: didn't he's the greatest ever to do. It's like you'd
Speaker 2: be like, you know, who could be a better athlete
Speaker 2: than my client? Bring me the greatest breather ever. Someone
Speaker 2: if there are breathing competitions held worldwide in different love
Speaker 2: of atmosphere, different oxygenation levels, and all of a sudden,
Speaker 2: that guy is just kicking everyone's ass and breathing. I
Speaker 2: might say, you know what, Joey, you're now the second goat,
Speaker 2: But until that competition exists, when there is something as
Speaker 2: as essential to life as literal nutrition, and he's the
Speaker 2: greatest ever, yeah, I'm gonna go ahead and say he's
Speaker 2: the greatest athlete ever. Or you can be like, no, actually, Nick,
Speaker 2: it's this guy who throws this pig skin on a
Speaker 2: field that's one hundred yards long, or this guy who
Speaker 2: puts this basketball in this circle that we just arbitrarily
Speaker 2: decided it's ten feet tall. Sounds stupid when you think
Speaker 2: about it, it really does. The only person who I
Speaker 2: will listen to is Usain Bolt, because there is an
Speaker 2: argument that that you know, eight thousand years ago, yes,
Speaker 2: folks had to eat, they also had to run because
Speaker 2: they had to run from sabertooth tigers.
Speaker 3: And whatnots not that eight years ago.
Speaker 2: But okay, once again, your honor, I you embracing the
Speaker 2: fact that dinosaurs did exist. However, we now need to
Speaker 2: get you to remind you of your honor. Dinosaurs and
Speaker 2: human beings never overlapped. There was never a human being
Speaker 2: that had to run from a dinosaur. They did have
Speaker 2: to run, though, from some wooly mammoths from some sabretooth tigers.
Speaker 2: So I'll listen to you, sain Bolt. However, those folks
Speaker 2: that had to run, they eventually could retire to a
Speaker 2: cave and block it off where they didn't have to run.
Speaker 2: You know what they had to do in that cave eat?
Speaker 2: There are no days off on eating that. That's the truth.
Speaker 2: So why Joey Chestnuts the goat? All right? That's the
Speaker 2: latest edition of Nick Wright Public Defender. And you know
Speaker 2: who listens and watches the podcast. A man who once
Speaker 2: upon time had a great podcast of his own, but
Speaker 2: now is just doing bigger and bigger things on T
Speaker 2: and T with the inside the NBA crew, Adam Lefko
Speaker 2: and Lefgo, who I went to college with a radio
Speaker 2: with in college, said that I absolutely need to go
Speaker 2: to Louisiana and try to take the bar there. I'd
Speaker 2: say about three more installments of Nick Wright Public Defender,
Speaker 2: and I just assume someone's gonna give me an honorary
Speaker 2: law degree and then I can take the bar in
Speaker 2: New York State.
Speaker 3: I don't see why not.
Speaker 2: I don't I mean, can we can we just be
Speaker 2: honest America about something before we move on. I might
Speaker 2: be the greatest in the world at constructing impromptu arguments
Speaker 2: that I don't even agree with myself. Do you guys
Speaker 2: want to know something? I hate Joey Chestnutt, But by
Speaker 2: the end of that I had at least some of
Speaker 2: y'all being like, you know what, he makes a strong case.
Speaker 2: You know what, maybe he is the greatest athlete ever.
Speaker 2: We'll be right back, all right, welcome back in What's
Speaker 2: Right Nick Right Podcast YouTube show. We're about to wrap
Speaker 2: the show. Uh, I guess some questions for your pal.
Speaker 2: I don't know why you had that cheesey little grin
Speaker 2: on your face right there.
Speaker 3: About to be great?
Speaker 2: No, no, no, I'm not saying they're gonna be good or bad.
Speaker 2: I so let me just tell the audience what's going on.
Speaker 2: So Demanse is when we're done with the show, driving
Speaker 2: to the airport. Are you okay with us going down
Speaker 2: this road?
Speaker 3: Yeah?
Speaker 2: Okay, driving to the airport, pick up his beloved girlfriend
Speaker 2: from the airport, who is going to be in New
Speaker 2: York for the next thirty days. And she's a wonderful
Speaker 2: young woman. I think you guys, you guys are great.
Speaker 2: I also know that you guys have been long distance
Speaker 2: for quite some time. Yeah, and you're now not only
Speaker 2: going to be together for the next month, but also
Speaker 2: you know, in New York, in New York and living
Speaker 2: together for the next month, not here elsewhere. And so
Speaker 2: I'm just curious mentally, are you prepared for this? Is
Speaker 2: there anything I can help you with? Any advice you
Speaker 2: feel like you need from me or you know, any
Speaker 2: of the crew because you are the youngest on the crew. Yeah,
Speaker 2: you're also a lot of us are married or in
Speaker 2: serious long term relationships. You're in this long distant relationship
Speaker 2: that's now all of a sudden about becomes zero distant relationships.
Speaker 2: You're gonna be You're gonna be sleeping in the same room,
Speaker 2: living in the same Airbnb for thirty days. I'm just
Speaker 2: curious your level of anxiety.
Speaker 3: Oh, I think I'm pretty anxiety free.
Speaker 2: Really, Yeah, just excited about it.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I think it's gonna be cool.
Speaker 2: Okay, So you don't want any you don't want any
Speaker 2: advice from me?
Speaker 4: I feel like, uh, I mean, what what what advice
Speaker 4: do you think that you could give me?
Speaker 3: Off the top?
Speaker 2: Like, oh, well, I mean, what what couldn't I give you?
Speaker 2: You know, what I mean, Like, I know, there's a lot,
Speaker 2: I just but if you don't want it, I don't
Speaker 2: want to. I don't want to force.
Speaker 4: So I think that if there's something that you think
Speaker 4: that I could potentially oversee, or like something that you
Speaker 4: think that I don't tend to.
Speaker 2: Oh, listen, I think that there's that. I think your
Speaker 2: hygiene is not an issue. You're cut is not an issue.
Speaker 2: I think that. Just always remember before you get too irritated,
Speaker 2: there's no there's nothing, no rule against Hey, I'll be
Speaker 2: right back, just taking a walk around the block seeing
Speaker 2: like do I really want to argue about this? Like that?
Speaker 2: That's always useful remembering that because you live in New York,
Speaker 2: the cool stuff about New York that is not that
Speaker 2: unique to you is pretty unique to her. So like hey,
Speaker 2: checking out a museum, Hey, you want to just walk
Speaker 2: around Central Park? Those types of things, a lot of
Speaker 2: ways in New York to have fun without spending money
Speaker 2: that you that you know what I mean, that you
Speaker 2: can engage in. And then there's the non relationship factor
Speaker 2: of this, which which is my secondary question here, which
Speaker 2: is how you think you're going to be able to
Speaker 2: handle getting to work on time? When instead of getting
Speaker 2: to work, you just have to walk upstairs. Do you
Speaker 2: now have to get here from you know, where your
Speaker 2: airbnb is? And I'm just curious, do we need to
Speaker 2: like push back the podcast start time or or do
Speaker 2: you think you're gonna be okay because whatever you say here,
Speaker 2: we're gonna hold.
Speaker 3: You to.
Speaker 4: Oh gosh, so this is like I feel like this
Speaker 4: is like the whole betting situation. But no, I think
Speaker 4: that since I normally wake up at eight for the podcast,
Speaker 4: I think it will be perfect. The airbnb is about
Speaker 4: twenty minutes away from here. Twenty twenty five minutes.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I think that takes me twenty minutes to get here.
Speaker 4: That's I get here by eight twenty. But obviously I'm
Speaker 4: not waking up and hitting straight here. As long as
Speaker 4: i'm ready by eight forty five, you know, nine o'clock,
Speaker 4: I'll get here on time.
Speaker 3: And I think that it'll actually be in a way
Speaker 3: better for me. Really not okay, not better, No way.
Speaker 3: It's better than sleeping directly downstairs, uh huh.
Speaker 4: But I think it will make the mornings make me
Speaker 4: a little bit even more active by the time I
Speaker 4: get here.
Speaker 2: I think that's correct, But I just want to make
Speaker 2: sure I have this right. We don't have no, no, no,
Speaker 2: I just want to make sure I have this part
Speaker 2: right if it make sure I understood it. When when
Speaker 2: you do the podcast from twenty feet away, you get
Speaker 2: up at eight. Yeah, and your plan when you're doing
Speaker 2: the podcast from a different burrow is to still get
Speaker 2: up at eight. Did I hear that correctly? You did? Okay,
Speaker 2: it's gonna work out swimming late. I love it. I
Speaker 2: love it. I yeah. I usually do the podcast literally
Speaker 2: right beneath where now I'm doing it from, you know,
Speaker 2: across a bridge, So I figure wake up around the
Speaker 2: same thing. First one, I figure still same thing.
Speaker 3: I'm not backing down a at all.
Speaker 4: Okay, because first of all, uh huh, yeah, I wake
Speaker 4: up at eight, But realistically if I.
Speaker 3: Not, if I wanted to, I can wake up at nine.
Speaker 3: It doesn't take me that long to get ready.
Speaker 4: Like the think me being awake at eight is just
Speaker 4: me waking up and being you know, active, having my
Speaker 4: mind ready for the podcast.
Speaker 3: So it's it's not.
Speaker 4: Like that hour and a half is me downstairs getting
Speaker 4: done up doing makeup.
Speaker 2: No I no, don't get me wrong. I don't think
Speaker 2: you're doing extra prepace. I'm aware that you're not using
Speaker 2: that time to like, let me really research these topics.
Speaker 4: I am doing rundown stuff and I do gloss over
Speaker 4: the things that are going.
Speaker 2: Now listen, it'll be fun. I'm excited for the whole thing.
Speaker 3: The first podcast isn't until next Wednesday, so I've gone.
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, but yeah, that is true. Best of Show
Speaker 2: coming on the fourth of July, so check that out.
Speaker 2: They they I saw the tentative rundown for the Best
Speaker 2: of Show and it said gonna have a ton of
Speaker 2: demons stuffing. I'm like, oh, that's interesting, Like what the
Speaker 2: producers think of the thing of me? Hey, guys, we
