00:01:06,920 --> 00:01:09,400
Speaker 1: reared her ugly head in my direction. And I have

20
00:01:09,480 --> 00:01:12,399
Speaker 1: been sick of the dog. But I'm on the end

22
00:01:18,800 --> 00:01:21,600
Speaker 1: promise you, but I will say I know it's so

23
00:01:21,640 --> 00:01:24,920
Speaker 1: cliche and so many people are saying this and whatever.

24
00:01:24,959 --> 00:01:29,280
Speaker 1: We were just talking about it. If I was not vaccinated,

25
00:01:29,400 --> 00:01:32,840
Speaker 1: this would be a very scary situation because my chest

26
00:01:32,880 --> 00:01:35,440
Speaker 1: has been like hella tight. And I consider myself a

27
00:01:35,520 --> 00:01:38,480
Speaker 1: very healthy person. I work out all the time, I

28
00:01:38,520 --> 00:01:42,840
Speaker 1: do a lot of cardio, I eat well, all of

29
00:01:42,840 --> 00:01:46,440
Speaker 1: those things across the board. I'm like pretty healthy. This

30
00:01:46,520 --> 00:01:49,600
Speaker 1: still knocked me on my butt, and I've had both shots,

31
00:01:49,600 --> 00:01:54,880
Speaker 1: I've had a booster, so it just it's yeah, you know,

32
00:01:55,040 --> 00:01:58,800
Speaker 1: it's just like that feeling like, yeah, that's really scary.

33
00:01:58,840 --> 00:02:00,720
Speaker 1: So if you're still out there sing this podcast and

34
00:02:00,720 --> 00:02:03,160
Speaker 1: you haven't gotten vaccinated, please just do us a favor

35
00:02:03,600 --> 00:02:06,640
Speaker 1: and do it. Um, you're probably saving your life because

36
00:02:06,680 --> 00:02:10,120
Speaker 1: this is no joke. It's really scary. UM. I didn't

37
00:02:10,160 --> 00:02:11,880
Speaker 1: lose my taste and smell, So I think, is that

38
00:02:11,919 --> 00:02:13,760

50
00:02:50,400 --> 00:02:56,640
Speaker 1: plus version. I'm such a weener though I knew it

51
00:02:56,680 --> 00:02:58,359
Speaker 1: was going to happen. I went to New York City

52
00:02:58,440 --> 00:03:01,360
Speaker 1: last week for Good Morning Football and it was a blast,

53
00:03:02,040 --> 00:03:05,200
Speaker 1: and you could just feel like New York City is

54
00:03:05,280 --> 00:03:08,280
Speaker 1: so hot right now. It's on a whole other level.

55
00:03:08,600 --> 00:03:10,320
Speaker 1: I love New York. But in the summer, it's just

56
00:03:10,360 --> 00:03:12,960
Speaker 1: like you walk outside and you're just like immediately sticky.

57
00:03:13,720 --> 00:03:16,200
Speaker 1: I'm like, this is like a breeding ground for her

58
00:03:16,440 --> 00:03:22,280
Speaker 1: COVID right now on the train and restaurants in cars.

59
00:03:22,360 --> 00:03:27,560
Speaker 1: So it got my ass all right, and I bow

60
00:03:27,680 --> 00:03:32,160
Speaker 1: down to the I have COVID. So anyways, that's why

61
00:03:32,200 --> 00:03:34,840
Speaker 1: we're at home, and that's why we are still doing

62
00:03:34,880 --> 00:03:37,120
Speaker 1: the podcast this way, even though I was so excited

63
00:03:37,160 --> 00:03:39,800
Speaker 1: to come into the office and see you guys and

64
00:03:39,880 --> 00:03:42,800
Speaker 1: make Justin try spam, which has been literally what I've

65
00:03:42,840 --> 00:03:47,320
Speaker 1: been waiting the whole entire summer for. But here we are,

66
00:03:47,600 --> 00:03:53,200
Speaker 1: and this actually might be the worst part about it.

67
00:03:53,200 --> 00:03:56,520
Speaker 1: It's a national holiday today that I was really looking

68
00:03:56,560 --> 00:04:01,320
Speaker 1: forward to celebrating with you guys. It's National hot Dog Day.

69
00:04:02,800 --> 00:04:05,840
Speaker 1: We could have gone all out, but that's not gonna

70
00:04:05,840 --> 00:04:08,360
Speaker 1: happen anymore. MO. You said that you've got some random

71
00:04:08,440 --> 00:04:10,320
Speaker 1: hot dog stories. I asked, these guys, have I told

72
00:04:10,360 --> 00:04:12,560
Speaker 1: my Russia hot dog story on this podcast? And they

73
00:04:12,560 --> 00:04:15,480
Speaker 1: were like, yes, for those of you that haven't heard that,

74
00:04:15,600 --> 00:04:17,839
Speaker 1: I almost died in Russia at the World Cup because

75
00:04:17,839 --> 00:04:20,480
Speaker 1: I ate too many hot dogs. I don't even know

76
00:04:20,520 --> 00:04:22,600
Speaker 1: if I need to go further than that. I kind

77
00:04:22,600 --> 00:04:24,119
Speaker 1: of wanted to remain a little bit of a mystery

78
00:04:24,160 --> 00:04:26,480
Speaker 1: if people haven't heard that story. But I know you

79
00:04:26,680 --> 00:04:29,400
Speaker 1: have a gall bladder. I no longer have a gallbladder.

80
00:04:29,520 --> 00:04:32,320
Speaker 1: Let's just say that, MO, what's your random hot dog facts?

81
00:04:32,600 --> 00:04:34,560
Speaker 1: I hope you spent like an hour looking up because

82
00:04:34,560 --> 00:04:40,560
Speaker 1: that's a beautiful image. No definitely not. Guess how many

83
00:04:42,000 --> 00:04:45,240
Speaker 1: billions of dollars the US spent on hot dogs last year?

84
00:04:45,480 --> 00:04:49,080
Speaker 1: Hot dogs and sausages me alone is about one one

85
00:04:49,160 --> 00:04:55,280
Speaker 1: billion America billions. Okay, so it's in the billions. Yeah,

86
00:04:55,320 --> 00:05:00,920
Speaker 1: three and a half. It's seven and a half. Okay,

87
00:05:01,120 --> 00:05:08,640
Speaker 1: I guess crazier. Uh No. The global hot dog and

88
00:05:08,800 --> 00:05:11,640
Speaker 1: sausage market is value was valued at sixty nine point

89
00:05:11,640 --> 00:05:14,559
Speaker 1: three billion in twenty eighteen and is expected to reach

90
00:05:15,080 --> 00:05:17,440
Speaker 1: eighty and a half billion by the end of twenty

91
00:05:17,440 --> 00:05:23,480
Speaker 1: twenty five. We are such sickos in this country. Okay.

92
00:05:23,560 --> 00:05:26,919
Speaker 1: Can you guess which city in the US eats the

93
00:05:27,000 --> 00:05:36,920
Speaker 1: most manat I would have to go with New York. No,

94
00:05:37,600 --> 00:05:41,919
Speaker 1: I'll give you it's it's closer than you think, closer

95
00:05:41,960 --> 00:05:47,200
Speaker 1: to us. Randon is Los Angeles. Yeah, it's La. No,

96
00:05:47,360 --> 00:05:53,400
Speaker 1: it is not feeding those numbers because I consume so many, Yeah,

97
00:05:53,440 --> 00:05:56,920
Speaker 1: thirty million pounds of hot dogs, and Dodger fans consume

98
00:05:57,000 --> 00:05:59,680
Speaker 1: two point seven million in twenty nineteen. That's what I

99
00:05:59,800 --> 00:06:01,840
Speaker 1: was Camels, like, it's got to be some kind of

100
00:06:02,400 --> 00:06:06,599
Speaker 1: Dodger dogs, the street dogs out on every LA street

101
00:06:06,680 --> 00:06:09,240
Speaker 1: at night, Like I had a veggie dog when we

102
00:06:09,240 --> 00:06:13,280
Speaker 1: went to the Dodgery game. Does that can accounts? I

103
00:06:13,320 --> 00:06:15,360
Speaker 1: wonder what a veggie Dodger dog would taste like. I'm

104
00:06:15,360 --> 00:06:17,680
Speaker 1: gonna try that. Speaking of I wonder if we can

105
00:06:17,720 --> 00:06:19,280
Speaker 1: go on something, if we're going to travel it all

106
00:06:19,279 --> 00:06:20,599
Speaker 1: this year, which I hope that we get to do

107
00:06:20,640 --> 00:06:22,839
Speaker 1: a little bit of. Um, I think we need to

108
00:06:22,960 --> 00:06:25,120
Speaker 1: rate some like stadium foods. I know people have done

109
00:06:25,120 --> 00:06:27,160
Speaker 1: it before, but like, forget about all the other stadium

110
00:06:27,200 --> 00:06:29,280
Speaker 1: food I want hot dogs. That's all I want. It's

111
00:06:29,279 --> 00:06:33,279
Speaker 1: gonna rate the hot dogs. See what the NFL stadium

112
00:06:33,320 --> 00:06:36,440
Speaker 1: hot dog situation is, Like, we can crown a winner.

113
00:06:36,480 --> 00:06:38,400
Speaker 1: I think that we actually need to. That's a journey

114
00:06:38,440 --> 00:06:40,479
Speaker 1: that I think we need to go on this year.

115
00:06:40,960 --> 00:06:45,720
Speaker 1: Do you think Tottenham Hotspur Stadium has hot dogs? Why? Oh,

116
00:06:45,760 --> 00:06:48,400
Speaker 1: because of London. They've got two. They had them in Russia,

117
00:06:48,440 --> 00:06:52,040
Speaker 1: they had them everywhere in Russia. Yeah. The average American

118
00:06:52,120 --> 00:06:57,160
Speaker 1: eats around seventy hot dogs a year. Um, okay, that

119
00:06:57,279 --> 00:07:00,440
Speaker 1: is actually kind of insane. Yeah, more than once per week.

120
00:07:01,040 --> 00:07:04,719
Speaker 1: That's insane. The average American eats more than seventy hot

121
00:07:04,720 --> 00:07:07,720
Speaker 1: dogs per year. Well, what if someone has season tickets

122
00:07:08,200 --> 00:07:12,040
Speaker 1: to their baseball team, and they get yeah, that's more

123
00:07:12,080 --> 00:07:15,840
Speaker 1: than one. That's that's a lot of ye and then

124
00:07:16,320 --> 00:07:19,600
Speaker 1: fourth of July and that can't be once a year.

125
00:07:20,040 --> 00:07:22,080
Speaker 1: You can't. That's no. But if you eat, if you're

126
00:07:22,120 --> 00:07:24,720
Speaker 1: having a cookout, I don't care. It can't be right.

127
00:07:24,960 --> 00:07:27,520
Speaker 1: It's we could say, listeners, if you are one of

128
00:07:27,520 --> 00:07:30,640
Speaker 1: the people eating seventy hot dogs per year, we still

129
00:07:30,760 --> 00:07:33,760
Speaker 1: scale scale it, pack a little bit for your own house.

130
00:07:33,960 --> 00:07:36,160
Speaker 1: Right now, you live your truth. I am right there

131
00:07:36,160 --> 00:07:38,560
Speaker 1: with you. You live your truth. The standard beef hot

132
00:07:38,560 --> 00:07:41,720
Speaker 1: dog is averages one hundred and ninety calories, which isn't

133
00:07:41,760 --> 00:07:43,920
Speaker 1: that bad. It's not that bad. It's not that bad.

134
00:07:44,240 --> 00:07:45,840
Speaker 1: So we don't have to feel at these people are

135
00:07:45,880 --> 00:07:50,880
Speaker 1: onto something. Okay, I like that, even though it has

136
00:07:50,920 --> 00:07:53,960
Speaker 1: destroyed part of my body already. Okay, let's talk about

137
00:07:53,960 --> 00:07:55,680
Speaker 1: some football. Last week, it was so fun being a

138
00:07:55,680 --> 00:07:57,840
Speaker 1: good morning football because it was just like right background

139
00:07:57,840 --> 00:08:00,920
Speaker 1: of the swing of things. I think today marks fifty

140
00:08:01,000 --> 00:08:04,119
Speaker 1: days out, fifty days out from the season. We cannot

141
00:08:04,160 --> 00:08:06,320
Speaker 1: be more excited. I think we're gonna go to some

142
00:08:06,840 --> 00:08:08,840
Speaker 1: camps coming up in the next few weeks. As soon

143
00:08:08,840 --> 00:08:12,720
Speaker 1: as I'm not u having COVID. I also got asked.

144
00:08:12,720 --> 00:08:15,200
Speaker 1: I don't know if this is public knowledge, but I

145
00:08:15,280 --> 00:08:17,880
Speaker 1: got asked to be a part of a celebrity flag

146
00:08:17,880 --> 00:08:22,680
Speaker 1: football game with Aaron Donald and Jalen Ramsey. What is

147
00:08:22,720 --> 00:08:26,840
Speaker 1: my body about to be just crushed under NFL players?

148
00:08:28,720 --> 00:08:30,360
Speaker 1: So anyways, we got a lot of good things coming

149
00:08:30,440 --> 00:08:34,200
Speaker 1: up down down the road here. Um, but here are

150
00:08:34,240 --> 00:08:36,720
Speaker 1: some things that are happening in the NFL world right now.

151
00:08:36,800 --> 00:08:39,400
Speaker 1: First off, I really want to hear your guy's opinion

152
00:08:39,440 --> 00:08:44,760
Speaker 1: about this. So Rob Grunkowski's girlfriend, Camille Caustick, Kosteck whatever

153
00:08:44,760 --> 00:08:48,200
Speaker 1: it is. Fun fact, actually she beat me out for

154
00:08:48,360 --> 00:08:51,880
Speaker 1: hosting wipe Out. It was me and her in the

155
00:08:51,920 --> 00:08:56,960
Speaker 1: final round there and she just snatched it out of

156
00:08:57,040 --> 00:09:01,000
Speaker 1: my hands. But she's great. Anyways, she came out. I

157
00:09:01,000 --> 00:09:02,240
Speaker 1: don't know if I'm allowed to tell you guys that

158
00:09:02,520 --> 00:09:05,720
Speaker 1: she came out and said I when she was asked

159
00:09:05,760 --> 00:09:08,640
Speaker 1: about do you think Gronk's retirement is going to last?

160
00:09:09,040 --> 00:09:12,280
Speaker 1: She's this is spicy, Okay, she says, I'm an honest lady,

161
00:09:12,520 --> 00:09:16,480
Speaker 1: and honestly, I don't feel like this one is the

162
00:09:16,679 --> 00:09:19,800
Speaker 1: forever one, So I think maybe he'll come back again.

163
00:09:19,800 --> 00:09:21,600
Speaker 1: I feel like him and Tom are just having fun

164
00:09:21,840 --> 00:09:27,120
Speaker 1: like retired, not retired, retired not retired. This feels like

165
00:09:27,160 --> 00:09:31,360
Speaker 1: pretty spicy because literally, just last week we were talking

166
00:09:31,360 --> 00:09:34,280
Speaker 1: about GK. Gronk was like, that's some kind of There

167
00:09:34,320 --> 00:09:36,679
Speaker 1: was boats behind him, he had sunglasses on, he was

168
00:09:36,679 --> 00:09:40,199
Speaker 1: already looking like so tanned, like settling into his retirement,

169
00:09:40,240 --> 00:09:42,280
Speaker 1: and he said like, no, I'm done, I'm done. I'm done.

170
00:09:42,320 --> 00:09:45,800
Speaker 1: I'm going to get into like some business opportunities blah

171
00:09:45,840 --> 00:09:47,720
Speaker 1: blah blah blah blah blah blah. So he himself has

172
00:09:47,760 --> 00:09:49,280
Speaker 1: come out to meet and said this is it, this

173
00:09:49,360 --> 00:09:51,720
Speaker 1: is real, and then literally a week later, not even

174
00:09:52,080 --> 00:09:55,040
Speaker 1: his girlfriend comes out and says like, well, I'm not

175
00:09:55,080 --> 00:09:58,959
Speaker 1: buying that. How would you guys feel if that happened

176
00:09:58,960 --> 00:10:02,360
Speaker 1: to you, if you if you were Wronk okay, and

177
00:10:02,480 --> 00:10:05,720
Speaker 1: you specifically said to the media, this is zick. Guys.

178
00:10:06,040 --> 00:10:09,280
Speaker 1: If Tom calls, I will answer and say Tom, I

179
00:10:09,360 --> 00:10:10,880
Speaker 1: love you, but I'm not coming back. And then your

180
00:10:10,880 --> 00:10:13,640
Speaker 1: girlfriend literally turns around and says, no, I'm not buying

181
00:10:13,640 --> 00:10:17,960
Speaker 1: that either. This is a this is all an elaborate scheme,

182
00:10:18,440 --> 00:10:21,120
Speaker 1: and Gronk knows he is coming back, which like we're

183
00:10:21,120 --> 00:10:24,560
Speaker 1: all shaking our heads like maybe that's the situation, um,

184
00:10:24,720 --> 00:10:26,640
Speaker 1: but like I don't know, maybe let let it play

185
00:10:26,679 --> 00:10:30,319
Speaker 1: a little bit longer, Like this is literally a week later.

186
00:10:30,440 --> 00:10:32,000
Speaker 1: What do you guys, what do you guys think? Would

187
00:10:32,000 --> 00:10:35,559
Speaker 1: you be? Are we skeptical of this retirement? Now? I

188
00:10:36,000 --> 00:10:38,000
Speaker 1: like it. This is I feel like he took something

189
00:10:38,040 --> 00:10:41,000
Speaker 1: out of Belichick's playbook for the drafts, where it's just

190
00:10:41,080 --> 00:10:45,160
Speaker 1: like you're mind effing everybody and you don't know what's

191
00:10:45,240 --> 00:10:48,640
Speaker 1: real what's not real. Gronks said his piece, Gronk's agent

192
00:10:48,679 --> 00:10:51,160
Speaker 1: said his piece, Brady said his stuff, And now he's

193
00:10:51,200 --> 00:10:53,800
Speaker 1: having his girlfriend come out and say, I don't know,

194
00:10:53,880 --> 00:10:56,400
Speaker 1: I don't think so. So at least he's staying relevant

195
00:10:56,400 --> 00:10:59,080
Speaker 1: and people are talking about him, which we are, which

196
00:10:59,280 --> 00:11:02,199
Speaker 1: we got got that way yeah, and then that way

197
00:11:02,200 --> 00:11:05,240
Speaker 1: when he makes a decision, either way it can point.

198
00:11:05,280 --> 00:11:07,000
Speaker 1: But I don't know, like, give us a little bit more,

199
00:11:07,120 --> 00:11:09,640
Speaker 1: give us a little bit more time to like miss you,

200
00:11:10,320 --> 00:11:12,600
Speaker 1: because you've just like NonStop been in the news like

201
00:11:12,600 --> 00:11:14,280
Speaker 1: the past few weeks. Give us a little bit more

202
00:11:14,320 --> 00:11:16,280
Speaker 1: time to be like, oh man, maybe this is like

203
00:11:17,040 --> 00:11:19,360
Speaker 1: maybe this is real, Maybe he's actually not coming back

204
00:11:20,520 --> 00:11:22,040
Speaker 1: and instead. Like as soon as I saw that, I

205
00:11:22,080 --> 00:11:23,680
Speaker 1: was just like, this is all just like a scheme

206
00:11:24,160 --> 00:11:26,880
Speaker 1: and it's all just like for making more money and

207
00:11:27,040 --> 00:11:29,640
Speaker 1: doing like it's just it just doesn't feel good as

208
00:11:29,679 --> 00:11:31,560
Speaker 1: a fan. I don't know, Like, do you guys like

209
00:11:31,679 --> 00:11:34,319
Speaker 1: the back and forth retired not retired thing, Like this

210
00:11:34,360 --> 00:11:36,840
Speaker 1: is going to be a thing now, Yeah, it's true.

211
00:11:37,080 --> 00:11:40,680
Speaker 1: M Gronkowski noted schemer, we have to point that out.

212
00:11:40,679 --> 00:11:44,160
Speaker 1: I think this feels like a scheme. I don't. I mean,

213
00:11:44,200 --> 00:11:47,080
Speaker 1: I don't really mind it because in the offseason all

214
00:11:47,200 --> 00:11:51,120
Speaker 1: news is like give me the news. But at the

215
00:11:51,160 --> 00:11:53,400
Speaker 1: same time, it's like, yeah, I do agree, like just

216
00:11:53,520 --> 00:11:56,360
Speaker 1: make a decision and go with it. But hey, sometimes

217
00:11:56,400 --> 00:11:59,880
Speaker 1: you change your mind in life. Adam Rank was on

218
00:12:00,000 --> 00:12:01,880
Speaker 1: Good Morning Football with me last week, and he made

219
00:12:01,880 --> 00:12:04,880
Speaker 1: a very good observation. He was just like, I wish

220
00:12:04,880 --> 00:12:08,640
Speaker 1: that the NFL was more like the WWE, and like whatever,

221
00:12:08,720 --> 00:12:10,720
Speaker 1: we don't hear from Gronk for a couple of weeks,

222
00:12:11,160 --> 00:12:15,880
Speaker 1: and then Game one comes and then there's like that's

223
00:12:16,160 --> 00:12:19,120
Speaker 1: Gronk's music and then he like comes running out in

224
00:12:19,160 --> 00:12:22,680
Speaker 1: his path and he's like, let's go the whole place.

225
00:12:22,679 --> 00:12:27,000
Speaker 1: Would go absolutely wild. If I were Gronk, I would

226
00:12:27,040 --> 00:12:29,160
Speaker 1: be like secretly training obviously to get rid of this

227
00:12:29,320 --> 00:12:31,280
Speaker 1: ready for the season, even though he doesn't even seem

228
00:12:31,280 --> 00:12:36,079
Speaker 1: like he does prepare much for the season. I would

229
00:12:36,120 --> 00:12:40,800
Speaker 1: literally like resign the day before the game, Like I

230
00:12:40,840 --> 00:12:44,200
Speaker 1: would make it as close as possible. I'd be like

231
00:12:44,240 --> 00:12:47,080
Speaker 1: showing up to like, you know, training camp and like

232
00:12:47,200 --> 00:12:50,680
Speaker 1: disguises and trying to like, I would make this such

233
00:12:50,720 --> 00:12:52,880
Speaker 1: a show, because why not. If you're gonna do this, like,

234
00:12:52,920 --> 00:12:54,720
Speaker 1: you might as well make it so exciting for the

235
00:12:54,760 --> 00:12:58,239
Speaker 1: rest of us. You know, over under week eight Gronkowski

236
00:12:58,440 --> 00:13:03,880
Speaker 1: comes back. Oh o over so past week eight under under.

237
00:13:03,920 --> 00:13:05,320
Speaker 1: I think he's there. I think he's there for a week.

238
00:13:05,360 --> 00:13:07,400
Speaker 1: He's got to make it more dramatic. The Bucks, the

239
00:13:07,440 --> 00:13:11,240
Speaker 1: Bucks are in danger of losing the division. Brady's frustrated

240
00:13:11,840 --> 00:13:15,440
Speaker 1: drama drama. See all of this is so cheesy, like

241
00:13:15,520 --> 00:13:17,800
Speaker 1: Brady just did this and then for you to do

242
00:13:17,840 --> 00:13:22,640
Speaker 1: it too, like it's just so dorky a little, you know,

243
00:13:23,800 --> 00:13:25,800
Speaker 1: I mean, I mean, I'm in on the having things

244
00:13:25,840 --> 00:13:30,360
Speaker 1: to talk about because literally it's July twentieth, and you know,

245
00:13:30,440 --> 00:13:32,880
Speaker 1: I'm about to talk about what Russell Wilson has written

246
00:13:32,920 --> 00:13:35,160
Speaker 1: on his shoe at practice, you know what I mean?

247
00:13:35,240 --> 00:13:40,800
Speaker 1: So like I'm down for actual things to talk about anyway.

248
00:13:40,880 --> 00:13:43,719
Speaker 1: Speaking of so, he's back. He's coming back. It was

249
00:13:43,800 --> 00:13:46,680
Speaker 1: Retirement's not real. We're calling it right now. You heard

250
00:13:46,679 --> 00:13:48,640
Speaker 1: it here First on the Bench, been a podcast. We

251
00:13:48,679 --> 00:13:52,840
Speaker 1: have seen through the lies. That's it. He's coming back.

252
00:13:54,880 --> 00:13:59,600
Speaker 1: Speaking of this, Russell Wilson's shoe, he country Let's riot,

253
00:14:02,320 --> 00:14:05,760
Speaker 1: Liz Red. I gotta redo that, right. I gotta do that,

254
00:14:05,800 --> 00:14:07,440
Speaker 1: like you know the mimic videos. I gotta do that

255
00:14:07,480 --> 00:14:10,679
Speaker 1: one right. I'm already starting to plan my videos for

256
00:14:10,720 --> 00:14:12,800
Speaker 1: the season, Like that's gotta be I think, honestly, that's

257
00:14:12,840 --> 00:14:17,640
Speaker 1: gotta be number one. Um, okay, So Russell Wilson, he's

258
00:14:17,679 --> 00:14:20,080
Speaker 1: got this, I guess, post this like training clip on

259
00:14:20,120 --> 00:14:23,280
Speaker 1: his Instagram or on his Twitter, and he's wearing these

260
00:14:23,320 --> 00:14:26,680
Speaker 1: like orange cleats and on the bottom of the cleat

261
00:14:26,760 --> 00:14:28,520
Speaker 1: is a picture of the Lombardi Trophy and it says

262
00:14:28,560 --> 00:14:32,560
Speaker 1: forthcoming soon, referring to the Broncos have three Super Bowl

263
00:14:32,560 --> 00:14:37,280
Speaker 1: titles now fourth is coming soon. Yeah, we're all we're

264
00:14:37,280 --> 00:14:38,920
Speaker 1: all kind of like shaking her hands right now. I

265
00:14:38,960 --> 00:14:42,880
Speaker 1: don't think I what dog is that. I don't think

266
00:14:42,960 --> 00:14:45,920
Speaker 1: that I really like when players call their shot like this.

267
00:14:46,040 --> 00:14:49,840
Speaker 1: It just seems, especially somebody like Russ, like he kind

268
00:14:49,880 --> 00:14:52,600
Speaker 1: of seems like such a classy guy and above all

269
00:14:52,640 --> 00:14:55,480
Speaker 1: of that nonsense, Like it just seems a little like

270
00:14:55,600 --> 00:14:58,480
Speaker 1: you're just gonna look, so do what are the benefits?

271
00:14:59,000 --> 00:15:01,080
Speaker 1: You know, you win the Bowl and somebody's gonna be

272
00:15:01,120 --> 00:15:03,920
Speaker 1: like Russ had that written on his shoe at the

273
00:15:03,920 --> 00:15:07,240
Speaker 1: beginning of the season, Like, no, okay, maybe somebody says

274
00:15:07,280 --> 00:15:12,120
Speaker 1: that if you don't, people are gonna be like, look

275
00:15:12,280 --> 00:15:15,440
Speaker 1: what Russ had written on his shoe the beginning of

276
00:15:15,440 --> 00:15:18,680
Speaker 1: the season before he even played a snap of football

277
00:15:18,720 --> 00:15:24,280
Speaker 1: with this team. I'm out on the major manifestations. I

278
00:15:24,320 --> 00:15:27,000
Speaker 1: can't remember who it was. Somebody last week said that

279
00:15:27,040 --> 00:15:28,640
Speaker 1: they were going to be the best wide receiver in

280
00:15:28,720 --> 00:15:30,320
Speaker 1: like all of football, and it was just like, who

281
00:15:30,360 --> 00:15:33,800
Speaker 1: even are you? Chase Claypool said he was top three

282
00:15:33,840 --> 00:15:35,880
Speaker 1: in the league. Yeah, maybe that, Maybe that's what I

283
00:15:35,920 --> 00:15:38,720
Speaker 1: was thinking of, but it's like top three, maybe top

284
00:15:38,800 --> 00:15:44,440
Speaker 1: thirty three. I get it. Like manifestations, great, I've put

285
00:15:44,480 --> 00:15:47,800
Speaker 1: some sneaky things on here trying to manifest Okay, I

286
00:15:47,960 --> 00:15:52,760
Speaker 1: get it. But am I like posting that to social media? No,

287
00:15:52,880 --> 00:15:57,480
Speaker 1: because it's dorky and I understand that. But I guess

288
00:15:57,480 --> 00:15:59,080
Speaker 1: this is part for the course. It's for us, right,

289
00:15:59,120 --> 00:16:00,520
Speaker 1: he is a little bit dorky. What do you guys

290
00:16:00,520 --> 00:16:02,480
Speaker 1: make of the manifestation on the cleats? Are you into

291
00:16:02,520 --> 00:16:05,200
Speaker 1: it or are you out just him? I am into

292
00:16:05,240 --> 00:16:09,280
Speaker 1: manifesting as a concept. I've had some recent luck with

293
00:16:09,400 --> 00:16:14,040
Speaker 1: manifesting situations in my life where you just like tell

294
00:16:14,120 --> 00:16:16,400
Speaker 1: yourself every day that this is going to happen, and

295
00:16:16,440 --> 00:16:19,120
Speaker 1: then it has happened. But I don't know if that's

296
00:16:19,160 --> 00:16:21,680
Speaker 1: like coincidence, ortain luck, or like it would have happened anyway,

297
00:16:21,760 --> 00:16:24,920
Speaker 1: or if like does is their actual power in me

298
00:16:25,520 --> 00:16:28,520
Speaker 1: thinking that? I don't know. I feel like putting it

299
00:16:28,560 --> 00:16:32,640
Speaker 1: on your cleats as a mindset like cool, it's that

300
00:16:32,760 --> 00:16:36,080
Speaker 1: like like motivate you to work hard. I guess posting

301
00:16:36,080 --> 00:16:39,400
Speaker 1: it on social media though, that's where I'm like, come on, now,

302
00:16:39,440 --> 00:16:41,520
Speaker 1: you're just showing off, like well, it's just like it's

303
00:16:41,520 --> 00:16:44,440
Speaker 1: just you might as well tag old takes exposed, you know,

304
00:16:44,640 --> 00:16:48,240
Speaker 1: you might as well. You might as well just like

305
00:16:48,320 --> 00:16:50,480
Speaker 1: go straight to the source, because that's what's going to happen.

306
00:16:50,920 --> 00:16:53,800
Speaker 1: You're just setting yourself up. When are you manifesting these days?

307
00:16:55,760 --> 00:16:59,520
Speaker 1: I don't know. Really, come on, give us something, no,

308
00:16:59,840 --> 00:17:02,720
Speaker 1: just kind of do things and if it works, it works.

309
00:17:02,720 --> 00:17:05,760
Speaker 1: If it doesn't work, it doesn't work. I'm testing a

310
00:17:05,880 --> 00:17:10,960
Speaker 1: brand new set of footy pajamas with Batman all over it,

311
00:17:11,040 --> 00:17:12,920
Speaker 1: and it is going to be so cozy and comfy

312
00:17:12,960 --> 00:17:16,199
Speaker 1: and it's going to arrive on my doorstep. I'm not,

313
00:17:16,240 --> 00:17:23,479
Speaker 1: I'm not. I think really corny, really corny is like

314
00:17:23,560 --> 00:17:27,679
Speaker 1: super corny. But he's on a new team after his

315
00:17:27,720 --> 00:17:30,359
Speaker 1: whole career with the Seahawks. He's trying to rile up

316
00:17:30,560 --> 00:17:35,960
Speaker 1: Bronco Nation and he's clearly doing a good job. Let's rite, Yeah,

317
00:17:36,080 --> 00:17:42,399
Speaker 1: he's a Bronco Nation, Bronco Country, sorry, Bronco Country. He

318
00:17:42,600 --> 00:17:45,520
Speaker 1: sounds like um, silk Sonic, like he could be a

319
00:17:45,560 --> 00:17:47,639
Speaker 1: part of Silk Sonic with that. Can we play it again,

320
00:17:47,960 --> 00:17:51,159
Speaker 1: Broncos Country. Let's rite what if we made like some

321
00:17:51,240 --> 00:17:55,520
Speaker 1: kind of jazzy like Broncos and use that as like, okay,

322
00:17:55,600 --> 00:17:59,720
Speaker 1: all right, idea incoming, idea incoming. I'm gonna I'm gonna

323
00:17:59,760 --> 00:18:03,280
Speaker 1: lie hop on the piano after this and just like, okay,

324
00:18:03,880 --> 00:18:08,200
Speaker 1: we are making that. That is in my brain now. Um,

325
00:18:08,560 --> 00:18:10,480
Speaker 1: all right, moving on rest. We love you. You You are

326
00:18:10,480 --> 00:18:12,239
Speaker 1: a little bit door key, but we still love you. Um.

327
00:18:12,840 --> 00:18:18,919
Speaker 1: Madden ratings came out. Everyone's kind of, you know, saying

328
00:18:19,000 --> 00:18:23,840
Speaker 1: their peace about it. Jamar Chase he was not on

329
00:18:23,880 --> 00:18:29,520
Speaker 1: the top ten, which is interesting. He said, I'm gonna

330
00:18:29,600 --> 00:18:32,920
Speaker 1: keep working extra motivation. Aren't you guys surprised by that.

331
00:18:32,920 --> 00:18:35,920
Speaker 1: It's a little crazy to me. Yeah. You know. ESPN's

332
00:18:35,960 --> 00:18:38,280
Speaker 1: doing this like series where they like get all the

333
00:18:38,359 --> 00:18:41,760
Speaker 1: executives and anonymous scouts and gms and people to rank

334
00:18:42,240 --> 00:18:45,760
Speaker 1: positionally across the league, and Jamar Chase was number two

335
00:18:45,840 --> 00:18:48,320
Speaker 1: in their wide receiver rankings, which was a little eyebrow

336
00:18:48,440 --> 00:18:50,639
Speaker 1: raising for me. It's like, he only played one season,

337
00:18:50,680 --> 00:18:53,440
Speaker 1: he's already the second best receiver in the league. But

338
00:18:53,560 --> 00:18:56,840
Speaker 1: to not even be in Manden's top ten is absolutely

339
00:18:56,880 --> 00:18:59,280
Speaker 1: two seems strong. But he played in the frekin Super

340
00:18:59,320 --> 00:19:01,400
Speaker 1: Bowl and he did a really fun season last year,

341
00:19:01,440 --> 00:19:04,200
Speaker 1: so but like, yeah, not even making it. So he said,

342
00:19:04,200 --> 00:19:06,919
Speaker 1: I'm gonna keep working extra motivation. Tom Brady responded to

343
00:19:07,000 --> 00:19:09,200
Speaker 1: Jamar Chase on Twitter, don't sweat it, man, Madden didn't

344
00:19:09,200 --> 00:19:11,879
Speaker 1: even put me in the game my second year. The

345
00:19:11,960 --> 00:19:14,440
Speaker 1: disrespect that Tom Brady's had throughout his career is just

346
00:19:14,520 --> 00:19:18,080
Speaker 1: makes me. It makes me giggle. Colts tweeted, we just

347
00:19:18,160 --> 00:19:21,000
Speaker 1: want to talk after Madden put Jonathan Taylor at number

348
00:19:21,000 --> 00:19:26,000
Speaker 1: four of top ten running backs, and then also Debo tweeted,

349
00:19:26,000 --> 00:19:28,160
Speaker 1: I think he was left off of lists. I don't

350
00:19:28,200 --> 00:19:31,160
Speaker 1: trip about Madden ratings. The only game I ever play

351
00:19:31,400 --> 00:19:37,880
Speaker 1: is NBA two K. I love that too. I feel

352
00:19:37,880 --> 00:19:39,840
Speaker 1: like you can't let it bother I mean, if you

353
00:19:39,920 --> 00:19:41,720
Speaker 1: are going to let it bother you be Jamar Chase

354
00:19:41,760 --> 00:19:43,919
Speaker 1: and let it like fuel you to be you know,

355
00:19:44,119 --> 00:19:47,760
Speaker 1: this have like a crazy year. But also that seems

356
00:19:47,800 --> 00:19:50,800
Speaker 1: so funny, like I'm gonna go out there and crush

357
00:19:50,880 --> 00:19:56,920
Speaker 1: because a video game Like it's Yeah, I think it's sad. Yes,

358
00:19:57,760 --> 00:19:59,840
Speaker 1: I think it's sad too, Like I don't think that

359
00:19:59,840 --> 00:20:02,320
Speaker 1: I I would let that bother me. I liken it

360
00:20:02,359 --> 00:20:06,800
Speaker 1: to like, you know, it's kind of like social media

361
00:20:07,160 --> 00:20:09,040
Speaker 1: in the way, like people are just going to talk

362
00:20:09,080 --> 00:20:11,439
Speaker 1: trash about everything that you make, whether it's good or not,

363
00:20:11,560 --> 00:20:13,119
Speaker 1: and some people aren't going to watch it, and some

364
00:20:13,240 --> 00:20:15,440
Speaker 1: people you're gonna do your own thing, like you're in

365
00:20:15,440 --> 00:20:18,080
Speaker 1: the NFL and you're making millions of dollars, Like why

366
00:20:18,480 --> 00:20:21,160
Speaker 1: who cares? Do you think that? Like these guys hang

367
00:20:21,200 --> 00:20:24,560
Speaker 1: out and they're all together, and you're like, oh, you know,

368
00:20:24,600 --> 00:20:27,800
Speaker 1: so and so you're a ninety seven rating and I'm

369
00:20:27,800 --> 00:20:30,600
Speaker 1: a ninety eight, So like got you? Like no one?

370
00:20:30,680 --> 00:20:33,520
Speaker 1: I feel like no one actually cares about that stuff.

371
00:20:33,840 --> 00:20:35,840
Speaker 1: I know. I think it would make like pretty good

372
00:20:35,880 --> 00:20:39,000
Speaker 1: like fodder on the field if they're aware of those things.

373
00:20:39,040 --> 00:20:41,040
Speaker 1: But then they're just You're just a loser of someone's

374
00:20:41,040 --> 00:20:45,040
Speaker 1: because we're getting ready for a season, Like, yeah, I

375
00:20:45,080 --> 00:20:47,760
Speaker 1: don't know. I'm out on the caring about mad rainings.

376
00:20:47,760 --> 00:20:49,520
Speaker 1: I don't think you should. I think you should be

377
00:20:49,560 --> 00:20:53,200
Speaker 1: about more like Deebo Samuel and just play other video

378
00:20:53,200 --> 00:20:55,480
Speaker 1: games if they if they trash you, I quit. I'm

379
00:20:55,480 --> 00:20:58,160
Speaker 1: playing NBA two K all right. Coming up after the break,

380
00:20:58,240 --> 00:21:03,840
Speaker 1: we are kicking them off. More teams on the benched Bachelorette,

381
00:21:03,880 --> 00:21:07,120
Speaker 1: Who will stay? Who will go? The roses are flying,

382
00:21:07,200 --> 00:21:23,440
Speaker 1: don't go anywhere. Oh. It is both my least favorite

383
00:21:23,440 --> 00:21:27,320
Speaker 1: and my favorite time of the show. All season long,

384
00:21:27,480 --> 00:21:29,320
Speaker 1: I have been trying to find a new team to

385
00:21:29,440 --> 00:21:33,520
Speaker 1: fall in love with on the Benched Bachelorette. We've kicked

386
00:21:33,560 --> 00:21:36,359
Speaker 1: off a lot of teams, We've sent a lot of

387
00:21:36,400 --> 00:21:39,920
Speaker 1: teams packing, and we still have quite a few remaining.

388
00:21:39,960 --> 00:21:41,200
Speaker 1: And like I said at the top of the show,

389
00:21:41,200 --> 00:21:44,159
Speaker 1: it was only fifty more days left. Maybe yea. We

390
00:21:44,200 --> 00:21:47,280
Speaker 1: got to break some hearts today and we're going to

391
00:21:47,320 --> 00:21:50,200
Speaker 1: continue to break those hearts until the rest of the season.

392
00:21:50,240 --> 00:21:53,960
Speaker 1: I gotta say my top three has changed. My top

393
00:21:54,119 --> 00:21:57,680
Speaker 1: three if you can hear what I am saying, has

394
00:21:57,880 --> 00:22:01,359
Speaker 1: changed in the last few weeks. Okay, there's a team

395
00:22:01,400 --> 00:22:02,960
Speaker 1: that's very much in the mix that was not in

396
00:22:03,000 --> 00:22:06,520
Speaker 1: the mix now they are. Does that have to do

397
00:22:06,560 --> 00:22:14,520
Speaker 1: with Baker Mayfield at all? Perhaps, I will say, speaking

398
00:22:14,520 --> 00:22:16,280
Speaker 1: of Baker, this team was very much still in the

399
00:22:16,280 --> 00:22:18,919
Speaker 1: mix because it was an option for him to go to.

400
00:22:19,080 --> 00:22:23,240
Speaker 1: And that is, Oh, this is going to break some hearts.

401
00:22:23,240 --> 00:22:30,720
Speaker 1: Seattle Seahawks, your time has come on this show. I

402
00:22:30,800 --> 00:22:32,680
Speaker 1: was making some notes. We have this like Google doc

403
00:22:32,840 --> 00:22:38,399
Speaker 1: that we work on, and I was just writing some

404
00:22:38,480 --> 00:22:40,240
Speaker 1: notes down while I was like looking through these teams,

405
00:22:40,240 --> 00:22:42,879
Speaker 1: and I accidentally wrote something next to the Seahawks that

406
00:22:43,000 --> 00:22:45,080
Speaker 1: these two could see. And I was not aware that

407
00:22:45,119 --> 00:22:48,639
Speaker 1: they could see it, but I wrote, I'll confess I wrote,

408
00:22:48,640 --> 00:22:52,520
Speaker 1: no redeeming quality. That's so mean, that that's so mean

409
00:22:52,680 --> 00:22:56,800
Speaker 1: that I don't actually mean it. Okay, there's some there's

410
00:22:56,840 --> 00:23:01,920
Speaker 1: some qualities. Like here's what I'm thinking. Pete Carroll's seventy

411
00:23:02,000 --> 00:23:05,240
Speaker 1: years old. He is the oldest coach in the NFL. Like,

412
00:23:05,520 --> 00:23:08,320
Speaker 1: why is he not on a beach sipping my tie somewhere?

413
00:23:09,440 --> 00:23:12,680
Speaker 1: I just I'm not I'm not into it. Okay, it's

414
00:23:12,680 --> 00:23:15,159
Speaker 1: not set. It's not a sexy team. There's not a

415
00:23:15,200 --> 00:23:20,119
Speaker 1: good vibe. Also, look at the who's who's your quarterback?

416
00:23:20,600 --> 00:23:23,800
Speaker 1: Drew Locke, Gino Smith. I do like Gino and I

417
00:23:23,800 --> 00:23:26,280
Speaker 1: think he had some really fun moments last year when

418
00:23:26,280 --> 00:23:30,280
Speaker 1: he got to play. But it's just it's not somebody

419
00:23:30,600 --> 00:23:32,480
Speaker 1: that I am. It's not a team that I'm attracted

420
00:23:32,480 --> 00:23:35,960
Speaker 1: to you right now? Um, they I take it back.

421
00:23:36,000 --> 00:23:37,600
Speaker 1: I feel like I got heated in the moment and

422
00:23:37,640 --> 00:23:39,400
Speaker 1: I said something in an argument and I said no

423
00:23:39,400 --> 00:23:42,439
Speaker 1: redeeming qualities. That was rude. I take that back, but um,

424
00:23:42,720 --> 00:23:45,080
Speaker 1: it's not you, it's me just kidding. It's very much

425
00:23:45,080 --> 00:23:51,840
Speaker 1: you Seahawks. Goodbye, Moving on the next team that I

426
00:23:51,880 --> 00:23:54,760
Speaker 1: will be letting go of on the bench, Patrick Larette

427
00:23:55,119 --> 00:23:57,800
Speaker 1: is going to be Please have the clip ready of

428
00:23:57,840 --> 00:24:03,400
Speaker 1: Russell Wilson, Barunka Country, Let's ride. You are out of here,

429
00:24:03,560 --> 00:24:09,320
Speaker 1: Broncos Country, Let's Ride. I feel like he jinks. Did

430
00:24:09,520 --> 00:24:11,639
Speaker 1: he jinks the whole season by putting that on his

431
00:24:11,760 --> 00:24:17,880
Speaker 1: dang shoes the fourth Lombardi. Um, I'm just I'm I'm

432
00:24:17,920 --> 00:24:20,560
Speaker 1: out on the Broncos Country. Let's Ride. I don't think

433
00:24:20,560 --> 00:24:22,480
Speaker 1: that I would enjoy going to a game and seeing

434
00:24:22,520 --> 00:24:26,280
Speaker 1: that up on the JumboTron. It haunts my dreams. Um.

435
00:24:26,320 --> 00:24:27,920
Speaker 1: I also don't know what this team is going to

436
00:24:28,000 --> 00:24:32,440
Speaker 1: look like at all, so could be great. I mean,

437
00:24:33,200 --> 00:24:38,840
Speaker 1: Russell Wilson, Jerry Judy right, and he's got some weird

438
00:24:38,880 --> 00:24:41,960
Speaker 1: things happened this summer, but hopefully that's I think that

439
00:24:42,000 --> 00:24:45,919
Speaker 1: those things are so I don't know. Um, Broncos Country,

440
00:24:45,960 --> 00:24:49,680
Speaker 1: we will not be riding tonight. I'm so sorry, pack

441
00:24:49,720 --> 00:24:55,560
Speaker 1: your Broncos Country, Let's Rite. Thank you the final team

442
00:24:55,640 --> 00:25:00,200
Speaker 1: to go. Um, there were some gasps, you can, I'd

443
00:25:00,240 --> 00:25:03,959
Speaker 1: say in the chat when I decided to let go

444
00:25:04,000 --> 00:25:07,240
Speaker 1: of this team. I'm curious to see why that there

445
00:25:07,280 --> 00:25:10,359
Speaker 1: were there were some gasps because I think it's it's

446
00:25:11,960 --> 00:25:13,439
Speaker 1: I don't think it's going to come as a surprise.

447
00:25:13,440 --> 00:25:15,360
Speaker 1: I'm going to get rid of the New Orleans Saints.

448
00:25:16,640 --> 00:25:24,000
Speaker 1: No Drew Brees, no Sean Peyton, Jameis Winston. I enjoy

449
00:25:24,080 --> 00:25:29,040
Speaker 1: watching Um, but he refuses to stop eating w's and

450
00:25:29,240 --> 00:25:34,000
Speaker 1: that makes me sick to my stomach. So many, so

451
00:25:34,040 --> 00:25:37,159
Speaker 1: many germs, And I don't like when people like, you know,

452
00:25:37,160 --> 00:25:39,160
Speaker 1: when Drew Brees, he's like lick his fingers, like every

453
00:25:39,200 --> 00:25:41,679
Speaker 1: time I watched it. I just I couldn't do it,

454
00:25:41,680 --> 00:25:44,920
Speaker 1: and I'm not gonna do it again. So Jamis Jamison,

455
00:25:44,960 --> 00:25:47,600
Speaker 1: the Saints, please pack your bags. Um, you are also

456
00:25:47,800 --> 00:25:54,159
Speaker 1: kicked off the bench Bachelorette Island. Ye see, Jamis just

457
00:25:54,240 --> 00:25:59,600
Speaker 1: does the best offseason workout videos, like such crazy nonsense

458
00:25:59,680 --> 00:26:03,199
Speaker 1: that he is always doing, and it's so fun to

459
00:26:03,359 --> 00:26:07,639
Speaker 1: follow his nonsense. I will confess a little behind the

460
00:26:07,680 --> 00:26:10,520
Speaker 1: scenes look at what's happening with me and the Saints.

461
00:26:11,480 --> 00:26:14,120
Speaker 1: So I was hoping that eventually we would get back

462
00:26:14,119 --> 00:26:17,760
Speaker 1: in studio to tape a podcast. Yeah, and that we

463
00:26:17,800 --> 00:26:21,560
Speaker 1: could have Mark Sessler join us on the pod as

464
00:26:21,600 --> 00:26:24,600
Speaker 1: a guest to talk through some teams because for anyone

465
00:26:24,640 --> 00:26:28,160
Speaker 1: who doesn't know, Mark Sessler, a lifelong Browns fan, has

466
00:26:28,280 --> 00:26:33,480
Speaker 1: disowned Browns just like you because of their offseason moves here.

467
00:26:33,960 --> 00:26:37,360
Speaker 1: So I know for a fact that Mark was strongly

468
00:26:37,400 --> 00:26:41,359
Speaker 1: considering the Saints as a team to jump to, and

469
00:26:41,400 --> 00:26:44,600
Speaker 1: I thought that could have been a cool conversation. But

470
00:26:45,320 --> 00:26:47,560
Speaker 1: the Saints aren't the only team he's considering. And if

471
00:26:47,600 --> 00:26:50,760
Speaker 1: you can't deal with Jamis shoving his entire hand in

472
00:26:50,840 --> 00:26:53,280
Speaker 1: his mouth, I don't think anyone can blame you for that.

473
00:26:53,640 --> 00:26:55,400
Speaker 1: Let's try and get Mark on the pod next week,

474
00:26:55,440 --> 00:26:57,280
Speaker 1: because we are starting getting to get down to the

475
00:26:57,359 --> 00:26:59,720
Speaker 1: nitty gritty here, and I think that we can help

476
00:26:59,720 --> 00:27:01,680
Speaker 1: each other are out, So let's put that invitation out

477
00:27:01,720 --> 00:27:04,440
Speaker 1: into the world because he hasn't been on this pod

478
00:27:04,560 --> 00:27:06,879
Speaker 1: just him yet, and I think that would be very

479
00:27:06,880 --> 00:27:09,280
Speaker 1: fun and maybe we can find love together. You know. Yeah,

480
00:27:09,320 --> 00:27:12,880
Speaker 1: well I'll get on that. Like I said, my top

481
00:27:12,960 --> 00:27:16,000
Speaker 1: three has changed, so this is interesting now. I think

482
00:27:16,000 --> 00:27:19,560
Speaker 1: that it could go many different ways and I'm very excited.

483
00:27:19,640 --> 00:27:23,000
Speaker 1: I think that my number one would actually surprise people

484
00:27:23,200 --> 00:27:25,800
Speaker 1: to know what it is like. I've not told you, guys,

485
00:27:25,840 --> 00:27:27,560
Speaker 1: you have no idea I think you know, you think

486
00:27:28,000 --> 00:27:30,720
Speaker 1: you think that you know. I will say my number

487
00:27:30,720 --> 00:27:33,960
Speaker 1: one is not Carolina. It's not Carolina. It hasn't changed

488
00:27:34,000 --> 00:27:36,600
Speaker 1: that much. They're in the mix. Okay, so I need

489
00:27:36,640 --> 00:27:38,040
Speaker 1: to see what the next few weeks look like. But

490
00:27:39,440 --> 00:27:41,920
Speaker 1: m guys, that is it for our pod. We are

491
00:27:42,040 --> 00:27:45,000
Speaker 1: hopefully going to be back in studio and normal people

492
00:27:45,720 --> 00:27:48,760
Speaker 1: sitting next to each other. Graver is going to be

493
00:27:48,800 --> 00:27:52,440
Speaker 1: eating spam. Maybe we'll throw a couple of hot dogs

494
00:27:52,440 --> 00:27:55,000
Speaker 1: in the mix. That sounds like a gnarly little lunch,

495
00:27:55,080 --> 00:28:00,240
Speaker 1: but okay, delicious to me. Thanks for listening every single week.

496
00:28:00,240 --> 00:28:02,200
Speaker 1: You guys are so sweet. I see all your messages

Speaker 1: and it's this pot has been really fun and I

498
00:28:05,920 --> 00:28:07,600
