23
00:01:02,080 --> 00:01:03,400

00:01:05,319 --> 00:01:08,240
Speaker 3: So we went to his office and he was in

26
00:01:08,280 --> 00:01:10,160
Speaker 3: the middle of working with us, and then he was

27
00:01:10,200 --> 00:01:12,600

00:01:31,160 --> 00:01:33,880
Speaker 3: So here he is, I'll shut up. Here is one

35
00:01:33,920 --> 00:01:36,800
Speaker 3: of the greats of all time left handed. I say

36
00:01:36,840 --> 00:01:39,040
Speaker 3: that because him and Boomerasison were the only two left

37
00:01:39,040 --> 00:01:41,080
Speaker 3: handed quarterback, because I would ever watch and be like, dang,

38
00:01:41,840 --> 00:01:43,679
Speaker 3: that's why I'm a quarterback. But then I wasn't after

39
00:01:43,680 --> 00:01:46,440
Speaker 3: like fourth grade. All right, here he is Steve Young. First,

40
00:01:46,480 --> 00:01:49,520
Speaker 3: I'd like to explain how I ended up here. I

41
00:01:49,600 --> 00:01:51,640
Speaker 3: was playing a golf tournament I was invited to. It

42
00:01:51,680 --> 00:01:52,640
Speaker 3: was it was super cool.

43
00:01:52,680 --> 00:01:55,720
Speaker 2: I was h end but high end golf, but I

44
00:01:55,760 --> 00:01:59,400
Speaker 2: was excited to just be invited elite golf tournament and me.

45
00:02:00,080 --> 00:02:03,400
Speaker 3: And so there's like seven people on a green and

46
00:02:03,440 --> 00:02:06,200
Speaker 3: I see somebody holding court and all the people are

47
00:02:06,200 --> 00:02:09,000
Speaker 3: like laughing, ha ha haa. This guy's holding court and

48
00:02:09,000 --> 00:02:11,639
Speaker 3: there's like a little crease and I see it's Steve

49
00:02:11,720 --> 00:02:14,920
Speaker 3: Young in the crease and everybody is listening to every word,

50
00:02:14,960 --> 00:02:17,359
Speaker 3: every breath he's saying. And I'm like, I love Steve Young.

51
00:02:17,760 --> 00:02:19,320
Speaker 3: I'm left handed. When I was a kid, I would

52
00:02:19,320 --> 00:02:22,280
Speaker 3: watch you play and think this is the roots.

53
00:02:22,360 --> 00:02:24,600
Speaker 2: I'm leaning closer now, yeah, this is the root because

54
00:02:24,600 --> 00:02:25,640
Speaker 2: it's very rare.

55
00:02:25,919 --> 00:02:28,000
Speaker 3: I was a left handed quarterback rare, and I was like,

56
00:02:28,040 --> 00:02:30,080
Speaker 3: Steve Young, if he can do it, I realize that.

57
00:02:30,240 --> 00:02:31,880
Speaker 3: So I walk up and I get into the crowd

58
00:02:31,919 --> 00:02:33,480
Speaker 3: of people and they're all laughing. I don't know what

59
00:02:33,520 --> 00:02:39,400
Speaker 3: you're saying, but I'm like, everybody fades away, and I say, hello,

60
00:02:39,720 --> 00:02:41,960
Speaker 3: mister Steve Young. My name is Bobby. I just want

61
00:02:42,000 --> 00:02:43,640
Speaker 3: to say I'm a big fan. And then I started

62
00:02:43,639 --> 00:02:47,079
Speaker 3: to walk away and you said I know who you are,

63
00:02:47,160 --> 00:02:48,040
Speaker 3: and my life changed.

64
00:02:48,760 --> 00:02:54,040
Speaker 2: Well, no, because strangely, my two girls are in high

65
00:02:54,040 --> 00:02:56,880
Speaker 2: school that were still at that point where like eighth

66
00:02:56,919 --> 00:02:59,639
Speaker 2: and tenth grade, so I was driving them everywhere, and

67
00:02:59,680 --> 00:03:04,160
Speaker 2: every morning I'm carpool and by Bones Joe and they

68
00:03:04,440 --> 00:03:07,280
Speaker 2: they love country music and I always loved it kind

69
00:03:07,280 --> 00:03:10,679
Speaker 2: of quietly, but then when my kids, I'm like, oh,

70
00:03:10,800 --> 00:03:13,640
Speaker 2: this is amazing, and so listen to you every morning,

71
00:03:13,840 --> 00:03:16,000
Speaker 2: and so I wanted. I went home and I.

72
00:03:15,919 --> 00:03:21,320
Speaker 4: Said, girls, guess who I met Bobby Bones? And then

73
00:03:21,360 --> 00:03:23,640
Speaker 4: it was and then I think you mentioned me somewhere

74
00:03:24,440 --> 00:03:28,400
Speaker 4: randomly on the show. Randomly we were driving and it's like,

75
00:03:29,240 --> 00:03:31,040
Speaker 4: my girls are like, he just said your name.

76
00:03:31,520 --> 00:03:34,920
Speaker 2: So it works in a strange circle. But finish the

77
00:03:34,960 --> 00:03:37,480
Speaker 2: story though, to really like people need to know this.

78
00:03:38,000 --> 00:03:41,240
Speaker 2: So it's an elite kind of golf invite to go

79
00:03:41,280 --> 00:03:43,520

106
00:04:51,839 --> 00:04:54,279
Speaker 3: doesn't always mix. Some famous people are cool, some aren't.

107
00:04:54,520 --> 00:04:56,400
Speaker 3: Some cool people are famous, some are and they're like,

Speaker 3: I had listed I loved County Crows, Adam Durret's cool.

110
00:05:03,240 --> 00:05:05,880
Speaker 3: I went through the list of my top five, and

111
00:05:06,000 --> 00:05:06,800
Speaker 3: you were my top five.

112
00:05:07,160 --> 00:05:10,800
Speaker 2: I couldn't believe that. My kids thought I honestly, they

113
00:05:10,800 --> 00:05:13,760
Speaker 2: don't know what I did before, and they think I'm

114
00:05:13,839 --> 00:05:17,080
Speaker 2: kind of like boring and like and when you said

115
00:05:17,160 --> 00:05:19,600
Speaker 2: my name is the top five, my kids like.

116
00:05:19,760 --> 00:05:21,920
Speaker 3: Oh, Dad, well that's very nice.

117
00:05:22,080 --> 00:05:25,839
Speaker 2: So Bobby, thank you for putting me on the pedestal

118
00:05:25,920 --> 00:05:26,880
Speaker 2: at home, I get.

119
00:05:27,160 --> 00:05:28,839
Speaker 3: And then I get a text him an unknown number,

120
00:05:28,880 --> 00:05:32,320
Speaker 3: and I'm like, oh, my stalker's back thinking, and it

121
00:05:32,360 --> 00:05:34,000
Speaker 3: was and it was Steve. And the first thing he

122
00:05:34,040 --> 00:05:36,080
Speaker 3: says is, I remember the bit I was talking about,

123
00:05:36,760 --> 00:05:39,240
Speaker 3: how did you get my number? I'm glad you did,

124
00:05:39,240 --> 00:05:40,479
Speaker 3: but that feels like you.

125
00:05:40,640 --> 00:05:42,839
Speaker 2: I think you gave it to me that brief moment.

126
00:05:42,880 --> 00:05:44,560
Speaker 3: No chance, because I would never afford I would never

127
00:05:44,560 --> 00:05:46,159
Speaker 3: have said I think you would want my number. There's

128
00:05:46,200 --> 00:05:49,480
Speaker 3: no chance. I would have been too insecure to even

129
00:05:49,520 --> 00:05:50,360
Speaker 3: offer my number.

130
00:05:50,480 --> 00:05:53,359
Speaker 2: Well that's a really good point. When you said my

131
00:05:53,480 --> 00:05:55,520
Speaker 2: name top five, and I said, okay, I've got to

132
00:05:55,600 --> 00:05:58,880
Speaker 2: reach out to him, it's like anybody with I might

133
00:05:58,920 --> 00:06:00,800
Speaker 2: have gotten to Steve Johnathan out of Beach. I think

134
00:06:00,800 --> 00:06:01,400
Speaker 2: that's what I did.

135
00:06:01,960 --> 00:06:03,719
Speaker 3: Who I did, not big time. I love Steve John

136
00:06:04,360 --> 00:06:09,080
Speaker 3: out heroic to me, and that's how we're are here.

137
00:06:09,640 --> 00:06:11,599
Speaker 3: I do want to start though, because I have taken

138
00:06:11,640 --> 00:06:14,920
Speaker 3: a crash course and Forever Young, which is your I

139
00:06:14,960 --> 00:06:16,840
Speaker 3: appreciate that your charity, and there are a couple of

140
00:06:16,880 --> 00:06:18,720
Speaker 3: things that I would like to talk about. First of all,

141
00:06:19,560 --> 00:06:23,640
Speaker 3: I know your wife, Barb and the music component of it.

142
00:06:23,720 --> 00:06:27,159
Speaker 2: Yeah, we did that. Yes, this weekend Monday, we opened

143
00:06:27,200 --> 00:06:30,200
Speaker 2: up our ninth one renowned children's hospital and a reno.

144
00:06:30,360 --> 00:06:33,640
Speaker 2: So it's a it's music. Would you explain music therapy?

145
00:06:34,839 --> 00:06:37,760
Speaker 2: Therapy is crazy, Like, I'm not a musician. I only

146
00:06:37,880 --> 00:06:40,640
Speaker 2: dream I would if you guys could. I wish I

147
00:06:40,680 --> 00:06:44,920
Speaker 2: could help the regime regime, so I wish I could

148
00:06:45,040 --> 00:06:47,560
Speaker 2: do anything. If I could sing, I would give up everything.

149
00:06:47,880 --> 00:06:51,320
Speaker 2: I would give up all. But I love as everyone does,

150
00:06:51,360 --> 00:06:55,520
Speaker 2: they love music. My wife, when she was in college,

151
00:06:55,560 --> 00:06:57,400
Speaker 2: a friend of hers who gotten a terrible car accident,

152
00:06:57,720 --> 00:07:00,479
Speaker 2: terrible brain injury. She did the research, which is my

153
00:07:00,520 --> 00:07:02,320
Speaker 2: wife's way to kind of like and she figured out

154
00:07:02,320 --> 00:07:04,960
Speaker 2: that there's this thing called music music therapy. And she

155
00:07:05,040 --> 00:07:07,599
Speaker 2: went and played bon Jovi because I was her favorite band.

156
00:07:08,200 --> 00:07:10,760
Speaker 2: Like over like this, all the time in the in

157
00:07:10,760 --> 00:07:14,280
Speaker 2: the room, and she believed it's changed. It helped, and

158
00:07:14,280 --> 00:07:17,400
Speaker 2: no one else is like, you know whatever, that doesn't

159
00:07:17,400 --> 00:07:21,120
Speaker 2: make any sense. So then twenty years later, a dear

160
00:07:21,200 --> 00:07:24,000
Speaker 2: friend of ours that I grew up with, daughter who

161
00:07:24,080 --> 00:07:26,640
Speaker 2: was seventeen a musician and she was down in La

162
00:07:26,720 --> 00:07:30,640
Speaker 2: recording she was going to be a star. She passed

163
00:07:30,640 --> 00:07:34,640
Speaker 2: away like out of like this, on a hike at

164
00:07:34,640 --> 00:07:38,280
Speaker 2: a girls camp. And so it was a year anniversary

165
00:07:38,280 --> 00:07:42,480
Speaker 2: of that tragedy that Barb's like, wait a second, we

166
00:07:42,600 --> 00:07:44,240
Speaker 2: need to honor her because she had done to the

167
00:07:44,440 --> 00:07:46,880
Speaker 2: children's She would got to the children's hospital nearby and

168
00:07:46,960 --> 00:07:48,920
Speaker 2: play for the kids. As a seventh year old, you

169
00:07:48,920 --> 00:07:50,240
Speaker 2: know like this, I want to help, I want to

170
00:07:50,240 --> 00:07:53,160
Speaker 2: do things. So we started Sophie's Place, the name of

171
00:07:53,200 --> 00:07:55,280
Speaker 2: Sophie for music therapy, and at the time, in two

172
00:07:55,320 --> 00:07:59,440
Speaker 2: thousand and six, music therapy in hospitals was starting. They

173
00:07:59,520 --> 00:08:02,120
Speaker 2: used to have a heart and the music therapists would

174
00:08:02,160 --> 00:08:03,680
Speaker 2: go around a room to room and it's like, no,

175
00:08:03,760 --> 00:08:06,480
Speaker 2: we need a space. And so we went to the

176
00:08:06,480 --> 00:08:09,240
Speaker 2: hospital and said, look, we'll we'll build the space and

177
00:08:09,360 --> 00:08:14,040
Speaker 2: what's funded with the music therapists music therapy is crazy

178
00:08:14,080 --> 00:08:16,400
Speaker 2: because music is the only thing that crosses over the

179
00:08:17,000 --> 00:08:19,760
Speaker 2: both sides of the brain. Language doesn't do that, and

180
00:08:19,800 --> 00:08:24,400
Speaker 2: so the music is ends up to be a scientific medicine,

181
00:08:24,960 --> 00:08:28,000
Speaker 2: like there's specific things that you can do in motion

182
00:08:28,520 --> 00:08:33,439
Speaker 2: for beating a drum or pain or because pain and

183
00:08:33,640 --> 00:08:37,480
Speaker 2: music travel the same places and so if there's music,

184
00:08:37,559 --> 00:08:40,040
Speaker 2: it can't be as much pain. And so there's all that.

185
00:08:40,200 --> 00:08:44,320
Speaker 2: There's hundreds of prescriptions written every day by doctors for

186
00:08:44,400 --> 00:08:49,000
Speaker 2: the music therapists for specific things for medicine for the

187
00:08:49,040 --> 00:08:52,120
Speaker 2: healing of kids in Schildn's Hospital. So that's that's that,

188
00:08:52,559 --> 00:08:55,760
Speaker 2: and I wish I was a musician. We had Dan

189
00:08:55,800 --> 00:09:00,000
Speaker 2: Reynolds came and the Imagine Dragons, we had Chester Bennington

190
00:09:00,559 --> 00:09:04,160
Speaker 2: take a park Lincoln Park before. We've had a number

191
00:09:04,200 --> 00:09:07,000
Speaker 2: of people come through and play for the kids, and

192
00:09:07,040 --> 00:09:10,240
Speaker 2: so I encourage it. Page idiots pick up Trulln's Hospital.

193
00:09:10,320 --> 00:09:11,240
Speaker 2: Let's go, Let's go.

194
00:09:11,640 --> 00:09:12,960
Speaker 3: So I used to be on the board of a

195
00:09:13,160 --> 00:09:16,280
Speaker 3: similar group called Musicians on Call and we would go

196
00:09:16,400 --> 00:09:20,800
Speaker 3: and especially with older like eighties and nineties who were

197
00:09:20,800 --> 00:09:23,040
Speaker 3: in the hospital, and it was there we would learn

198
00:09:23,120 --> 00:09:24,960
Speaker 3: songs from when they were young and it would be

199
00:09:24,960 --> 00:09:26,800
Speaker 3: the only time that you would see them light up

200
00:09:27,280 --> 00:09:30,559
Speaker 3: like there would be and because if they didn't remember

201
00:09:30,840 --> 00:09:33,640
Speaker 3: whatever they didn't remember, what they would remember is how

202
00:09:33,679 --> 00:09:35,880
Speaker 3: they felt when that music was played when they were

203
00:09:35,920 --> 00:09:38,760
Speaker 3: a kid, and it was like to see it even briefly.

204
00:09:39,200 --> 00:09:42,240
Speaker 2: So it's not we know that music has that effect,

205
00:09:42,800 --> 00:09:44,720
Speaker 2: but I think I just want to make sure that

206
00:09:44,760 --> 00:09:47,920
Speaker 2: people understand that there's a science to the specific things

207
00:09:47,920 --> 00:09:53,000
Speaker 2: that music, like brain injuries. They can't get kids to

208
00:09:53,800 --> 00:09:57,280
Speaker 2: move their arms, but if they can beat a drum

209
00:09:57,360 --> 00:09:59,400
Speaker 2: for some reason, so they beat a drum and they

210
00:09:59,480 --> 00:10:02,480
Speaker 2: use that as they beat the drum to reteach them

211
00:10:02,559 --> 00:10:05,439
Speaker 2: how to eat. And so there's just music has this

212
00:10:06,160 --> 00:10:09,520
Speaker 2: strange power over and Chester Bennington's the one that told me.

213
00:10:09,559 --> 00:10:14,360
Speaker 2: He says they haven't figured out where where uh music

214
00:10:15,440 --> 00:10:18,280
Speaker 2: starts in the brain. And he says that's because that's

215
00:10:18,360 --> 00:10:21,480
Speaker 2: where God sits and no one will actually find it.

216
00:10:21,520 --> 00:10:22,760
Speaker 2: So I said, I remember chester Ton.

217
00:10:23,280 --> 00:10:25,680
Speaker 3: I went and looked up the charity on the there's

218
00:10:25,679 --> 00:10:27,240
Speaker 3: a website and goes, you have a charity is legit?

219
00:10:27,520 --> 00:10:30,200
Speaker 3: You guys got one hundred percent. I was worried. Honestly,

220
00:10:30,240 --> 00:10:31,640
Speaker 3: I was like, oh, man, do I ever want to

221
00:10:31,640 --> 00:10:34,120
Speaker 3: go look at this and I wait, could be scaled,

222
00:10:34,160 --> 00:10:38,240
Speaker 3: and I will say it with full authority. It is

223
00:10:38,320 --> 00:10:39,760
Speaker 3: not all the stars.

224
00:10:39,760 --> 00:10:43,880
Speaker 2: That was yeah, so uh charity navigator, we're one of

00:12:00,040 --> 00:12:00,760
Speaker 3: I would like to hear it.

259
00:12:00,840 --> 00:12:02,320
Speaker 2: Yeah, but there's a lot of stories I can't tell.

260
00:12:02,880 --> 00:12:06,440
Speaker 3: Well, then don't tell those or tell that will pay

261
00:12:06,480 --> 00:12:11,959
Speaker 3: the micro right you'll Okay, let's start with Bobby. He

262
00:12:11,960 --> 00:12:13,640
Speaker 3: already k know who it was, Bobby Brister.

263
00:12:15,520 --> 00:12:21,520
Speaker 2: So some people like, it's what's fun the league? The

264
00:12:21,640 --> 00:12:26,160
Speaker 2: NFL is full of just characters right from everywhere. And

265
00:12:26,200 --> 00:12:30,600
Speaker 2: if I remember, Bobby was like not Cajun like, uh,

266
00:12:31,000 --> 00:12:34,280
Speaker 2: Bobby a Bear, because Bobby a Bear played for the Saints.

267
00:12:34,720 --> 00:12:37,880
Speaker 2: When you met Bobby Aber, he's like he would speak English,

268
00:12:38,360 --> 00:12:44,160
Speaker 2: but Cajun English. And I'd be like, hey, bro, I

269
00:12:44,160 --> 00:12:46,800
Speaker 2: don't know you do I don't know and so then

270
00:12:46,840 --> 00:12:50,920
Speaker 2: I thought, Okay, you're in the Superdome and seventy thousand,

271
00:12:51,000 --> 00:12:52,920
Speaker 2: eighty thousand people are screaming, and you're in the huddle,

272
00:12:53,000 --> 00:12:57,439
Speaker 2: and Bobby Aber's gone to play. I'd be like, bro

273
00:12:59,320 --> 00:13:02,199
Speaker 2: because this every else speak caging. No, no, they don't.

274
00:13:02,600 --> 00:13:05,400
Speaker 2: So there's all these good and Bubby Brister is that

275
00:13:05,559 --> 00:13:08,840
Speaker 2: kind of a character. He's My memory is that he

276
00:13:08,960 --> 00:13:12,840
Speaker 2: was from the South, and uh, he was a country like.

277
00:13:13,120 --> 00:13:15,360
Speaker 2: I can see Bubby growing up in a place where

278
00:13:15,520 --> 00:13:18,120
Speaker 2: you know, all the songs are with the dirt road

279
00:13:18,160 --> 00:13:21,120
Speaker 2: and the fish and uh, you know, and you know

280
00:13:22,559 --> 00:13:25,400
Speaker 2: all the great lyrics. I'm just screwing up right now.

281
00:13:25,440 --> 00:13:28,280
Speaker 2: But uh, and that's what Bubby's a Bubby is a

282
00:13:28,320 --> 00:13:29,480
Speaker 2: country dude.

283
00:13:30,000 --> 00:13:35,640
Speaker 3: Do you recognize that guy? This would be a guy

284
00:13:35,880 --> 00:13:38,679
Speaker 3: Pierce Hold. Do you play with it?

285
00:13:38,840 --> 00:13:41,959
Speaker 2: The pier hold. That's the most serious thing I've ever

286
00:13:41,960 --> 00:13:45,080
Speaker 2: seen a Pierce Hold. Oh my gosh. Look he's looking

287
00:13:45,120 --> 00:13:48,760
Speaker 2: up in the distance like weird like look of George

288
00:13:48,840 --> 00:13:53,640
Speaker 2: Washington cross into Delaware. Yes, you're looking for something really important.

289
00:13:54,120 --> 00:13:56,199
Speaker 2: He never he never found anything important. I can promise

290
00:13:56,240 --> 00:13:58,559
Speaker 2: you that here's a good dude. But that's the other

291
00:13:58,600 --> 00:14:01,640
Speaker 2: thing about guys in the NFL is that these good

292
00:14:01,760 --> 00:14:05,480
Speaker 2: dudes that are like really kind hearted. Pierce is a

293
00:14:05,600 --> 00:14:11,360
Speaker 2: kind hearted guy, very soft spoken, but was like massive,

294
00:14:12,080 --> 00:14:13,440
Speaker 2: Like if you walked in the room, you're like, hey,

295
00:14:13,520 --> 00:14:17,080
Speaker 2: whoa stay there? And he was so big and strong,

296
00:14:17,120 --> 00:14:20,240
Speaker 2: and then you go play and you're like, holy crap.

297
00:14:20,320 --> 00:14:23,640
Speaker 2: There is like two sides to people. Are there two

298
00:14:23,640 --> 00:14:26,280
Speaker 2: sides to you? Do you have a side that if

299
00:14:26,320 --> 00:14:29,200
Speaker 2: it's time to go, like turn it like it's time I'm.

300
00:14:29,080 --> 00:14:31,480
Speaker 3: On the quarterback and podcast now, thanks for asking, Steve.

301
00:14:31,800 --> 00:14:35,200
Speaker 2: Yeah, no, but is it because Pierce had two sides?

302
00:14:35,520 --> 00:14:38,560
Speaker 2: He was most of the time kind, peaceful, and then

303
00:14:38,600 --> 00:14:41,200
Speaker 2: you go play, You're like that dude is different.

304
00:14:41,000 --> 00:14:42,640
Speaker 3: I think and you probably have a version of this

305
00:14:42,680 --> 00:14:45,080
Speaker 3: as well. For me, I'm on all the time if

306
00:14:45,120 --> 00:14:47,520
Speaker 3: I am performing on stage, doing a radio show or

307
00:14:47,520 --> 00:14:50,000
Speaker 3: a TV show. But when I'm not on, I'm off,

308
00:14:50,480 --> 00:14:54,200
Speaker 3: meaning I'm very quiet. I'm a wallflower. I don't have

309
00:14:54,320 --> 00:14:56,600

329
00:15:44,480 --> 00:15:46,600
Speaker 3: Yeah, let's do one more? Did you have another one atdie?

330
00:15:46,640 --> 00:15:49,520
Speaker 2: See Matt Millan in there also? Wait Matt Millon. Ye,

331
00:15:49,800 --> 00:15:51,160
Speaker 2: good friend of mine played for the Raiders for a

332
00:15:51,200 --> 00:15:58,560
Speaker 2: long time, joined the forty nine ers, and uh, he

333
00:15:58,560 --> 00:16:01,920
Speaker 2: would have us. Partner was we were roommates. So we

334
00:16:02,560 --> 00:16:07,880
Speaker 2: hung together and Matt would invite us because we're single,

335
00:16:08,320 --> 00:16:11,520
Speaker 2: for dinner for the family and he'd say, look six

336
00:16:11,640 --> 00:16:15,600
Speaker 2: fifteen and so. But don't don't come later early, just

337
00:16:15,600 --> 00:16:18,320
Speaker 2: be there six fifteen. So we would kind of wait

338
00:16:18,760 --> 00:16:20,880
Speaker 2: around the corner until six fifteen because we didn't want

339
00:16:20,880 --> 00:16:23,000
Speaker 2: to mess up. So we pulled in and then he'd

340
00:16:23,080 --> 00:16:25,760
Speaker 2: open the door and he'd be in his underwear and

341
00:16:25,800 --> 00:16:27,920
Speaker 2: he'd be like, yeah, come in, and the kids would

342
00:16:27,920 --> 00:16:29,240
Speaker 2: be all around the table and we go in and

343
00:16:29,280 --> 00:16:32,600
Speaker 2: eat eight and he's like eat, you know, and so

344
00:16:33,080 --> 00:16:35,280
Speaker 2: we would eat and then he would like we'd finish.

345
00:16:35,360 --> 00:16:39,600
Speaker 2: He's like, okay, now leave, so we would leave and

346
00:16:39,640 --> 00:16:43,000
Speaker 2: it was the greatest It was the greatest invite you

347
00:16:43,040 --> 00:16:45,600
Speaker 2: could ever have to come to somebody's house because you

348
00:16:45,600 --> 00:16:47,640
Speaker 2: don't have to say anything. You just got to be

349
00:16:47,680 --> 00:16:50,080
Speaker 2: on time. You don't look at the underwear, and just

350
00:16:50,120 --> 00:16:54,040
Speaker 2: go in and eat and eat and leave, like literally

351
00:16:54,760 --> 00:16:56,960
Speaker 2: encouraged to leave as fast as you can. And we'd

352
00:16:57,000 --> 00:17:00,680
Speaker 2: be full. Pat would make tremendous food and we'd walk

353
00:17:00,680 --> 00:17:03,800
Speaker 2: out like it's amazing, Like this is the greatest thing ever.

354
00:17:04,280 --> 00:17:06,240
Speaker 2: And the first time I ever met Matt Mellon, he

355
00:17:06,320 --> 00:17:09,320
Speaker 2: was playing for the Raiders linebacker and I was a

356
00:17:09,400 --> 00:17:11,520
Speaker 2: rookie and I was in the league, like you know,

357
00:17:11,560 --> 00:17:14,320
Speaker 2: and I'm playing the Raiders and and I'm you know,

358
00:17:14,520 --> 00:17:16,239
Speaker 2: you can imagine like you break the huddle and you're

359
00:17:16,280 --> 00:17:20,439
Speaker 2: like and Matt Mellon's like alert alert alert, Mormon in

360
00:17:20,480 --> 00:17:26,040
Speaker 2: the backfield, Moreman in the backfield, alert alert, look around?

361
00:17:26,080 --> 00:17:31,639
Speaker 2: What does he talk about? I I that threw me

362
00:17:31,800 --> 00:17:33,800
Speaker 2: for a long time and that and I have laughed

363
00:17:33,800 --> 00:17:35,520
Speaker 2: about that forever. But he was the kind of guy

364
00:17:35,560 --> 00:17:37,200
Speaker 2: that would do stupid stuff like that.

365
00:17:38,320 --> 00:17:40,600
Speaker 3: When you when you leave BYU and you go to

366
00:17:40,640 --> 00:17:43,200
Speaker 3: the USFL, you put a year there? What was that even?

367
00:17:43,320 --> 00:17:49,280
Speaker 2: Like? Yeah, so it was amazing. It was like the

368
00:17:49,400 --> 00:17:52,880
Speaker 2: NFL has been around forever, this upstart league. Young most

369
00:17:52,920 --> 00:17:56,120
Speaker 2: of us were twenty one, twenty two years old. We

370
00:17:56,119 --> 00:17:58,880
Speaker 2: were living in la We were being coached by John

371
00:17:58,920 --> 00:18:00,960
Speaker 2: Hadl who was famous kind of a quarterback back in

372
00:18:01,000 --> 00:18:03,040
Speaker 2: the day. And Sid Gilman, one of the he was

373
00:18:03,080 --> 00:18:06,119
Speaker 2: old at that time, but he was the godfather of

374
00:18:06,160 --> 00:18:09,879
Speaker 2: the forward passing like it was amazing. And I had

375
00:18:09,920 --> 00:18:12,320
Speaker 2: Gary Zimmerman who ended up being an Oregon where you

376
00:18:12,359 --> 00:18:14,080
Speaker 2: guys just just were he was ended up being a

377
00:18:14,080 --> 00:18:16,439
Speaker 2: Hall of Fame player. We had Jojo Townsell. We had

378
00:18:16,440 --> 00:18:18,119
Speaker 2: all these young players. That was a lot of fun.

379
00:18:18,560 --> 00:18:22,080
Speaker 2: We We had a great time, and the league was

380
00:18:22,720 --> 00:18:23,520
Speaker 2: legit football.

381
00:18:23,800 --> 00:18:25,680
Speaker 3: It was why why why did you go to the USFL?

382
00:18:25,720 --> 00:18:29,280
Speaker 2: Though? Because I could play right away and I was

383
00:18:29,320 --> 00:18:31,720
Speaker 2: gonna be drafted number one by the Bengals, and I

384
00:18:31,720 --> 00:18:34,920
Speaker 2: didn't This sounds a little weird, but I didn't know

385
00:18:34,920 --> 00:18:38,440
Speaker 2: anyone Cincinnati. You knew the people in LA. You know

386
00:18:38,440 --> 00:18:40,280
Speaker 2: what I mean. There's when you're young, you're like the

387
00:18:40,320 --> 00:18:43,520
Speaker 2: familiarity and uh, and playing like I didn't want to

388
00:18:43,520 --> 00:18:47,240
Speaker 2: sit and watch and I wanted to go play, and uh,

389
00:18:47,480 --> 00:18:49,399
Speaker 2: sitting at you makes you talk like you. Did you

390
00:18:49,440 --> 00:18:50,560
Speaker 2: notice that? I don't know if I did.

391
00:18:50,640 --> 00:18:52,840
Speaker 3: I feel like I'm talking like you. So I think

392
00:18:52,960 --> 00:18:56,359
Speaker 3: there's some hybrid of conversation here where it's very weird.

393
00:18:56,440 --> 00:18:59,560
Speaker 3: We had we had talked to another player, peak quarterback

394
00:18:59,680 --> 00:19:01,240
Speaker 3: USC and he was drafting the top five same thing.

395
00:19:01,280 --> 00:19:02,720
Speaker 3: Went to Cincinnati and was like, I don't know what's

396
00:19:02,720 --> 00:19:05,160
Speaker 3: going on. Oh yeah, he never watched on TV. They

397
00:19:05,720 --> 00:19:08,080
Speaker 3: He was like, I don't know what happens in Cincinnati, right.

398
00:19:08,680 --> 00:19:11,359
Speaker 2: Well, it's like when you're a kid, there's all kind

399
00:19:11,359 --> 00:19:12,879
Speaker 2: of weird things are going through your head, and well,

400
00:19:12,920 --> 00:19:16,520
Speaker 2: things that do you think matter, don't matter. All of

401
00:19:16,560 --> 00:19:20,840
Speaker 2: a sudden, you're you know, you're getting paid to play

402
00:19:21,080 --> 00:19:23,360
Speaker 2: a game, Like if like I played football in high

403
00:19:23,400 --> 00:19:25,160
Speaker 2: school and now I'm getting paid to do it, it's weird.

404
00:19:25,160 --> 00:19:26,760
Speaker 2: And then everyone else that's paid for it, and then

405
00:19:26,760 --> 00:19:28,760
Speaker 2: it's like then you see the older guys who are like,

406
00:19:29,600 --> 00:19:31,840
Speaker 2: this is my career, this is how I feed my family,

407
00:19:31,880 --> 00:19:35,240
Speaker 2: and like I'm going to kill you. You're like, oh,

408
00:19:35,240 --> 00:19:38,359
Speaker 2: that's a whole different thing. Like the NFL beats. It

409
00:19:38,440 --> 00:19:42,240
Speaker 2: runs people out and you if you are not careful

410
00:19:42,359 --> 00:19:44,399
Speaker 2: and you don't really love it and you're not willing

411
00:19:44,440 --> 00:19:48,240
Speaker 2: to kind of battle back. You've seen famous like high

412
00:19:48,320 --> 00:19:50,639
Speaker 2: draft picks come into the league and then three or

413
00:19:50,640 --> 00:19:54,600
Speaker 2: four years they just disappear because they just it's not

414
00:19:54,680 --> 00:19:57,720
Speaker 2: their passion, it's they they're really good at it. They're amazing.

415
00:19:58,040 --> 00:20:00,479
Speaker 2: They're the best athletes in their town and they're county

416
00:20:00,480 --> 00:20:03,600
Speaker 2: and their state at college, best athletes anyone ever seen.

417
00:20:03,680 --> 00:20:05,960
Speaker 2: So you keep doing it and then finally the pro

418
00:20:06,000 --> 00:20:08,840
Speaker 2: game forces you to say, do I love this? And

419
00:20:08,920 --> 00:20:13,240
Speaker 2: a lot of times like I don't. And that's what happens.

420
00:20:13,480 --> 00:20:15,800
Speaker 3: Did you realize in your first year with the USFL

421
00:20:15,800 --> 00:20:17,480
Speaker 3: that you probably weren't going to be there the next year.

422
00:20:18,160 --> 00:20:20,280
Speaker 2: No, I believed it was a league that was going

423
00:20:20,320 --> 00:20:24,000
Speaker 2: to stick around. It was in now, and they might

424
00:20:24,040 --> 00:20:26,040
Speaker 2: have had to pair back, you know, there's some financial

425
00:20:26,040 --> 00:20:27,639
Speaker 2: things that would be careful. But it was done. It

426
00:20:27,720 --> 00:20:31,280
Speaker 2: was it was cooked, and then they wanted to go

427
00:20:31,359 --> 00:20:33,560
Speaker 2: to the fall and go up against the NFL and

428
00:20:33,600 --> 00:20:37,800
Speaker 2: into the ground. It was too bad because the football

429
00:20:37,800 --> 00:20:40,720
Speaker 2: I played for the La Express was better than the

430
00:20:40,720 --> 00:20:43,399
Speaker 2: football that was in the Tampa Bay Buccaneers that I

431
00:20:43,600 --> 00:20:48,080
Speaker 2: joined the next year, And so it's too bad. It

432
00:20:48,119 --> 00:20:49,920
Speaker 2: should be still here, should be played in the spring,

433
00:20:49,960 --> 00:20:52,520
Speaker 2: and they're still trying that. It's been thirty years later,

434
00:20:52,560 --> 00:20:56,359
Speaker 2: they're still trying to do what they had at the moment,

435
00:20:56,400 --> 00:20:57,520
Speaker 2: and it just didn't work out.

436
00:20:58,200 --> 00:21:00,159
Speaker 3: When you go to Tampa, did you have expectation is

437
00:21:00,240 --> 00:21:02,920
Speaker 3: playing immediately? What was and do they redraft?

438
00:21:03,400 --> 00:21:04,960
Speaker 2: How did you end up a stay when all of

439
00:21:05,040 --> 00:21:09,000
Speaker 2: us that you know, Herschel Walker and Reggie White and

440
00:21:09,359 --> 00:21:13,000
Speaker 2: Gary Zimmerman and all these guys, we all left undrafted

441
00:21:13,080 --> 00:21:15,920
Speaker 2: essentially because we went to the USFL. The league didn't

442
00:21:15,960 --> 00:21:18,960
Speaker 2: want to allow that, like, hey, wait a second, because

443
00:21:19,080 --> 00:21:21,880
Speaker 2: we all thought let's go to the USFL. Let's play

444
00:21:22,000 --> 00:21:24,880
Speaker 2: some ball and if something happens, we'll come back as

445
00:21:24,920 --> 00:21:27,800
Speaker 2: free agents and we'll pick a team. And the league's like,

446
00:21:28,760 --> 00:21:31,359
Speaker 2: we're and so about a year in they said they

447
00:21:31,400 --> 00:21:33,879
Speaker 2: made a deal with the Players Association, which I'm still

448
00:21:34,520 --> 00:21:37,439
Speaker 2: pissed out about the Players Association allowing that, because you

449
00:21:37,440 --> 00:21:39,720
Speaker 2: think they would protect us. But they had what they

450
00:21:39,720 --> 00:21:42,400
Speaker 2: called a supplemental draft, and that's when I was number

451
00:21:42,400 --> 00:21:43,840
Speaker 2: one to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.

452
00:21:43,960 --> 00:21:45,720
Speaker 3: How did you feel about going to Tampa? Not like

453
00:21:45,760 --> 00:21:47,120
Speaker 3: I mean, there wasn't a lot of success there.

454
00:21:49,359 --> 00:21:54,920
Speaker 2: I I'm you know, I'm not somebody that's going to go, oh,

455
00:21:55,040 --> 00:21:57,639
Speaker 2: I can only play here or there. I need this

456
00:21:57,800 --> 00:22:00,520
Speaker 2: or that. I was like, let's go. It was hard.

457
00:22:02,040 --> 00:22:05,359
Speaker 2: There were some bad boys down there. James Wilder was

458
00:22:05,359 --> 00:22:08,480
Speaker 2: a running back. He's the toughest human being I ever met.

459
00:22:08,720 --> 00:22:10,720
Speaker 2: There were some good players down there. It was just

460
00:22:10,760 --> 00:22:14,720
Speaker 2: a bad situation. It was you ever been. It's like

461
00:22:14,760 --> 00:22:19,879
Speaker 2: any organization when when you know there's no accountability and

462
00:22:19,920 --> 00:22:22,680
Speaker 2: all those there's this mitigation and point you're, oh, I

463
00:22:22,960 --> 00:22:25,000
Speaker 2: would have been great if for you, and you know,

464
00:22:25,320 --> 00:22:27,639
Speaker 2: and that feeds on itself and pretty soon everyone's was

465
00:22:27,640 --> 00:22:31,439
Speaker 2: springing the corner and coach oh terrible and everyone's and

466
00:22:31,680 --> 00:22:33,960
Speaker 2: you can't get out of it. It's like you can't.

467
00:22:33,960 --> 00:22:35,159
Speaker 2: And then there's fight, you know, a fight in the

468
00:22:35,200 --> 00:22:36,720
Speaker 2: locker room. I remember the first time I went in

469
00:22:36,800 --> 00:22:39,439
Speaker 2: the locker room in Tampa at the halftime. I go

470
00:22:39,480 --> 00:22:42,840
Speaker 2: into halftime and you're waiting for like tips from the coach,

471
00:22:42,920 --> 00:22:47,760
Speaker 2: you know, like, and half the team's like smoking, and

472
00:22:47,840 --> 00:22:50,399
Speaker 2: I'm like, you can't. You can't smoke in the NFL.

473
00:22:51,200 --> 00:22:51,560
Speaker 3: You can't.

474
00:22:51,640 --> 00:22:54,560
Speaker 2: What is this? I never forgot that.

475
00:22:54,720 --> 00:22:58,760
Speaker 3: Man, How did you negotiate the trade to San Francisco?

476
00:22:58,840 --> 00:23:00,439
Speaker 3: Then did you let them know you wanted to go?

477
00:23:00,720 --> 00:23:05,080
Speaker 2: So we were so bad that I played one full year.

478
00:23:05,440 --> 00:23:07,200
Speaker 2: We were so bad that we were going to have

479
00:23:07,200 --> 00:23:10,800
Speaker 2: the first draft choice again, and they got a new coach,

480
00:23:10,960 --> 00:23:13,159
Speaker 2: Ray Perkins. And Ray Perkins shows up and says to me,

481
00:23:14,000 --> 00:23:16,480
Speaker 2: see one thing, I want you to know. I hate

482
00:23:16,520 --> 00:23:22,040
Speaker 2: scramblers and I hate lefties. And I'm like that is

483
00:23:22,119 --> 00:23:24,520
Speaker 2: bad and uh. And they had a number one choice,

484
00:23:24,520 --> 00:23:26,040
Speaker 2: so they took Vinie Ti Saverni and I was like, okay,

485
00:23:26,040 --> 00:23:28,000
Speaker 2: we got to get rid of him. So they treated

486
00:23:28,040 --> 00:23:32,119
Speaker 2: me the Saint Louis Cardinals. It was equally bad. And

487
00:23:32,200 --> 00:23:34,600
Speaker 2: I had made a relationship with the owner, Hugh colver

488
00:23:34,640 --> 00:23:36,399
Speaker 2: House Like no one talked to mister colver Osse, but

489
00:23:36,440 --> 00:23:38,560
Speaker 2: I saw him and he's like over in the corner.

490
00:23:38,600 --> 00:23:40,160
Speaker 2: I'm like, I'll go talk to him like you would.

491
00:23:40,680 --> 00:23:44,320
Speaker 2: And so we made a real and that relationship was

492
00:23:44,359 --> 00:23:46,960
Speaker 2: one where you know, he said, Steve, I really love

493
00:23:47,000 --> 00:23:48,640
Speaker 2: your style. I love what you're doing, and I want

494
00:23:48,640 --> 00:23:50,400
Speaker 2: you to be my quarterback for life. I remember telling

495
00:23:50,400 --> 00:23:53,280
Speaker 2: me that. So then when Ray Perkins said, bro, you're

496
00:23:53,320 --> 00:23:56,479
Speaker 2: out I and you're traded to the Saint Louis Cardinals.

497
00:23:56,560 --> 00:24:00,880
Speaker 2: I called mister Culversse. I said, mister culvers you told

498
00:24:00,880 --> 00:24:03,399
Speaker 2: me I was a quarterback for life. And he goes, oh,

499
00:24:03,440 --> 00:24:05,080
Speaker 2: I know, Steve. You know he's had a Southern draw.

500
00:24:05,200 --> 00:24:08,120
Speaker 2: You know I love you and I bet the new

501
00:24:08,160 --> 00:24:10,199
Speaker 2: coach and I don't know. And I go, well, you

502
00:24:10,240 --> 00:24:13,040
Speaker 2: can't send me this like you gotta let me go

503
00:24:13,200 --> 00:24:15,880
Speaker 2: somewhere I can thrive. He goes, oh, let me think

504
00:24:15,880 --> 00:24:17,880
Speaker 2: about it, and he goes he calls me back. He says,

505
00:24:18,200 --> 00:24:21,000
Speaker 2: I cancel that trade, and now you have a week.

506
00:24:21,600 --> 00:24:24,680
Speaker 2: I want you to find a place that you like that?

507
00:24:24,920 --> 00:24:29,600
Speaker 2: Who would That's unheard of in sports? Right, And and

508
00:24:29,760 --> 00:24:33,240
Speaker 2: Ray Perkins was pissed, and he was like like because

509
00:24:33,320 --> 00:24:35,560
Speaker 2: he had they had a number of draft toy they

510
00:24:35,560 --> 00:24:38,080
Speaker 2: got a number on Draft Show, whatever they got from him,

511
00:24:38,720 --> 00:24:41,560
Speaker 2: and he was dumping He couldn't wait to dump me around.

512
00:24:41,840 --> 00:24:44,120
Speaker 2: So then they nixed that. And I that's when Bill

513
00:24:44,119 --> 00:24:47,000
Speaker 2: Wats called and said that Joe Montana's had his second

514
00:24:47,040 --> 00:24:54,040
Speaker 2: back surgery. I think you're amazing. I was like, that's amazing, great,

515
00:24:54,640 --> 00:25:02,080
Speaker 2: and uh, that's how that happened. How was the Joe

516
00:25:02,119 --> 00:25:06,320
Speaker 2: Montana situ? Come on, you want to spend up five minute?

517
00:25:06,640 --> 00:25:09,920
Speaker 2: It was awkward. It was always awkward and Joe, if

518
00:25:09,960 --> 00:25:13,440
Speaker 2: Joe walked in right now, he'd we will be like hey,

519
00:25:14,960 --> 00:25:18,639
Speaker 2: because we didn't. I would tell you that we never fought,

520
00:25:19,040 --> 00:25:22,879
Speaker 2: We never had a crossword, never supported each other in

521
00:25:22,920 --> 00:25:25,680
Speaker 2: the ways that we had. The job was the job, right,

522
00:25:26,480 --> 00:25:29,840
Speaker 2: played golf together, laughed with Steve Bono and all the

523
00:25:29,840 --> 00:25:34,120
Speaker 2: guy like. But it was always awkward because in his mind,

524
00:25:34,320 --> 00:25:37,080
Speaker 2: I was brought in to take his job, and in

525
00:25:37,119 --> 00:25:39,760
Speaker 2: my mind, I was brought in because he was hurt

526
00:25:40,000 --> 00:25:42,919
Speaker 2: and I didn't want to sit and watch. I wouldn't

527
00:25:42,960 --> 00:25:45,440
Speaker 2: have if he was gonna go be MVP when Super Bowls,

528
00:25:45,440 --> 00:25:47,680
Speaker 2: I'd be like, I love watching him, but I'm gonna

529
00:25:47,680 --> 00:25:50,600
Speaker 2: go play somewhere. So the whole thing was just and

530
00:25:50,640 --> 00:25:53,440
Speaker 2: Bill Walsh was the one was like, oh, it'll work out,

531
00:25:53,560 --> 00:25:55,880
Speaker 2: you know, it'll be fine, And we both hated him

532
00:25:55,880 --> 00:25:58,560
Speaker 2: for it, but loved him because we and I would

533
00:25:58,600 --> 00:26:01,120
Speaker 2: say this at the end of the day, it got.

534
00:26:01,200 --> 00:26:04,760
Speaker 2: It got the most out of both of us being together.

535
00:26:05,760 --> 00:26:09,080
Speaker 2: And I watched him play football that is like most

536
00:26:09,080 --> 00:26:11,840
Speaker 2: amazing football I've ever seen, and then I hopefully played

537
00:26:11,880 --> 00:26:14,320
Speaker 2: football that it was the most. It was the best

538
00:26:14,359 --> 00:26:16,159
Speaker 2: I could ever be, you know. And so in that

539
00:26:16,200 --> 00:26:19,080
Speaker 2: way it was it sucked and it was great and

540
00:26:19,119 --> 00:26:22,200
Speaker 2: it was awkward. And they eighteen someone did a commercial

541
00:26:22,240 --> 00:26:26,160
Speaker 2: recently that we did with Bo Jackson comeing to Bo's

542
00:26:26,160 --> 00:26:29,600
Speaker 2: house for the Super for the big game and and uh,

543
00:26:29,720 --> 00:26:32,760
Speaker 2: I'm there, and and Joe walks in and Bo says, oh, Joe,

544
00:26:33,080 --> 00:26:36,200
Speaker 2: good good, that's great. You came, Steve, It's okay, right,

545
00:26:37,520 --> 00:26:37,840
Speaker 2: And then I.

546
00:26:37,840 --> 00:26:40,240
Speaker 4: Said I'm okay, of course, And then there's this awkward

547
00:26:40,440 --> 00:26:42,600
Speaker 4: interchange where we try to high five and miss and

548
00:26:42,640 --> 00:26:45,240
Speaker 4: then finally we do this kind of claw shake, you know,

549
00:26:45,359 --> 00:26:46,280
Speaker 4: and it's like awkward.

550
00:26:46,720 --> 00:26:51,439
Speaker 2: Then it's like perfectly, you know, exemplified what what the

551
00:26:51,480 --> 00:26:52,280
Speaker 2: relationship was like.

552
00:26:52,400 --> 00:26:53,560
Speaker 3: Did you feel like you were a bit ahead of

553
00:26:53,600 --> 00:26:55,440
Speaker 3: your time in the NFL then because you ran.

554
00:26:56,119 --> 00:26:58,720
Speaker 2: A thousand percent, I was well, I got kicked out

555
00:26:58,720 --> 00:27:03,600
Speaker 2: of Tampa because I was weird and my game was

556
00:27:03,640 --> 00:27:06,679
Speaker 2: not the game. I believe that my game was the

557
00:27:06,720 --> 00:27:09,560
Speaker 2: best game you could have when you have lots of options,

558
00:27:09,600 --> 00:27:11,440
Speaker 2: you don't have to sit there and wait. I always

559
00:27:11,480 --> 00:27:13,600
Speaker 2: thought that Tom Brady and Peyton Manny and Dan Marino

560
00:27:13,640 --> 00:27:16,720
Speaker 2: were like super gods because they had to just stand

561
00:27:16,720 --> 00:27:19,919
Speaker 2: there and they were amazing. That's like I would never

562
00:27:19,960 --> 00:27:23,400
Speaker 2: want to do that job. But now, twenty years later,

563
00:27:24,040 --> 00:27:26,680
Speaker 2: because of rule changes, the game is so wide open

564
00:27:27,160 --> 00:27:29,679
Speaker 2: you have to run. All the first round draft choices

565
00:27:29,680 --> 00:27:31,760
Speaker 2: for quarterbacks are all guys that can move around and run,

566
00:27:31,800 --> 00:27:35,720
Speaker 2: and so the game strangely is my game. It's like

567
00:27:35,760 --> 00:27:38,160
Speaker 2: the game that I like. I watch it, I'm like.

568
00:27:38,640 --> 00:27:45,520
Speaker 1: Oh, the love, the love is there, let me please

569
00:27:45,600 --> 00:27:47,920
Speaker 1: let me in, you know, And I keep working out

570
00:27:47,960 --> 00:27:50,399
Speaker 1: and trying to throw in the backyard just in case

571
00:27:50,600 --> 00:27:53,440
Speaker 1: like you never know, like if thirty two guys got sick.

572
00:27:53,760 --> 00:27:58,320
Speaker 2: Maybe I throw a couple. Because he said in that look,

573
00:27:58,440 --> 00:28:00,240
Speaker 2: think about the game today, and Tom Brady said this,

574
00:28:00,280 --> 00:28:03,320
Speaker 2: So it makes it true to me that the game

575
00:28:03,359 --> 00:28:06,040
Speaker 2: today is uh, the middle of the field is unpatrolled

576
00:28:06,040 --> 00:28:07,679
Speaker 2: where it used to be like a death zone, like

577
00:28:07,720 --> 00:28:10,720
Speaker 2: there's there's people run around free. The flats are always open.

578
00:28:10,800 --> 00:28:12,399
Speaker 2: Just if you need a completion, you just take it

579
00:28:12,640 --> 00:28:16,119
Speaker 2: and you no one can hit you. Like it's a dream.

580
00:28:16,320 --> 00:28:18,720
Speaker 2: It's a quarterbacks dream. Oh by the way, you get

581
00:28:18,720 --> 00:28:21,400
Speaker 2: paid sixty million dollars a year. It's like a dream.

582
00:28:21,520 --> 00:28:24,320
Speaker 2: Like you know. Anyway, go on, I'm not I'm not bitter.

583
00:28:24,440 --> 00:28:26,720
Speaker 2: It's not like it's not it's not a get off

584
00:28:26,760 --> 00:28:30,520
Speaker 2: my lawn kind of thing. I know you're thinking, hey,

585
00:28:30,560 --> 00:28:32,960
Speaker 2: oh man, get off my lawn. No, it's more of

586
00:28:33,000 --> 00:28:36,520
Speaker 2: an appreciation for the changes that have come to me

587
00:28:36,560 --> 00:28:38,520
Speaker 2: that make me that resonate and make me want to

588
00:28:38,520 --> 00:28:39,000
Speaker 2: play again.

589
00:28:39,320 --> 00:28:41,680
Speaker 3: Who did you fear on the other side of the line.

590
00:28:42,920 --> 00:28:47,120
Speaker 2: I always say, the unblocked guy, you know what I mean,

591
00:28:47,160 --> 00:28:49,440
Speaker 2: Like that's where you could really get hurt. So it's

592
00:28:49,440 --> 00:28:51,480
Speaker 2: like I don't care if it's you, guys, and.

593
00:28:51,440 --> 00:28:52,880
Speaker 3: What was that up to you guys? But was it

594
00:28:52,960 --> 00:28:54,240
Speaker 3: up to you define who was going to be the

595
00:28:54,280 --> 00:28:54,760
Speaker 3: unblock guy?

596
00:28:54,800 --> 00:28:56,440
Speaker 2: It was part of partly me, and part was just

597
00:28:56,600 --> 00:29:00,080
Speaker 2: mistakes and you get hit from you know, and and

598
00:29:00,080 --> 00:29:03,440
Speaker 2: and that. Back then, the job was to put you

599
00:29:03,480 --> 00:29:05,760
Speaker 2: out of the game. That was the job. And people

600
00:29:05,800 --> 00:29:08,400
Speaker 2: remember the bounty and all this stuff like there's that

601
00:29:08,480 --> 00:29:11,600
Speaker 2: was very common. And so you had the best athletes

602
00:29:11,600 --> 00:29:14,160
Speaker 2: in the world, not the smartest, but the best athletes

603
00:29:14,200 --> 00:29:16,880
Speaker 2: in the world paid lots of money to come kill you.

604
00:29:17,720 --> 00:29:21,640
Speaker 2: And so I feared anyone that wasn't blocked. But if

605
00:29:21,640 --> 00:29:25,040
Speaker 2: you want to say who I didn't want to see,

606
00:29:25,400 --> 00:29:28,240
Speaker 2: it was REGGI White. And did you know you were

607
00:29:28,240 --> 00:29:32,680
Speaker 2: old enough to remember, you know, as football card said

608
00:29:33,320 --> 00:29:39,840
Speaker 2: Reggie White, Tennessee six six three twenty. And you guys

609
00:29:39,920 --> 00:29:42,440
Speaker 2: have to know that when you're a rookie, you you list,

610
00:29:42,760 --> 00:29:45,040
Speaker 2: they give you a piece of paper card companies and

611
00:29:45,120 --> 00:29:48,120
Speaker 2: you say who you are, Steve Young b Yu six

612
00:29:48,880 --> 00:29:52,160
Speaker 2: two ten so forever more. If you look on the

613
00:29:52,160 --> 00:29:53,560
Speaker 2: card and it's going to say six to two ten,

614
00:29:53,600 --> 00:29:56,680
Speaker 2: because I wrote it down. Now, am I six two

615
00:29:57,640 --> 00:30:00,640
Speaker 2: might be slightly aspirational. But you know what I mean, Like,

616
00:30:00,680 --> 00:30:03,080
Speaker 2: you write down what you feel you are, right, And

617
00:30:03,120 --> 00:30:05,200
Speaker 2: if I just thought about Reggie White, he wrote down

618
00:30:05,240 --> 00:30:09,720
Speaker 2: six six, three twenty. If you write down three twenty,

619
00:30:09,760 --> 00:30:13,560
Speaker 2: you're four hundred, you know you are. If you were

620
00:30:13,640 --> 00:30:16,840
Speaker 2: three twenty, you'd write down to eighty, right, do you

621
00:30:16,920 --> 00:30:22,080
Speaker 2: understand that? Probably? So Reggie was the biggest, most amazing

622
00:30:22,120 --> 00:30:30,000
Speaker 2: athlete that ever lived. I never I didn't meet Biblical

623
00:30:30,160 --> 00:30:33,760
Speaker 2: you know, stone throwing gargantuan you know what I mean.

624
00:30:33,800 --> 00:30:36,600
Speaker 2: I didn't I didn't meet you know, but Reggie White

625
00:30:36,640 --> 00:30:44,480
Speaker 2: was if he walked in today, you'd be like, oh.

626
00:30:42,160 --> 00:30:43,960
Speaker 3: But he was a pastor. I wasn't full of love.

627
00:30:44,640 --> 00:30:49,400
Speaker 2: So one of the great athletes in the world because

628
00:30:52,120 --> 00:30:55,120
Speaker 2: he would he was loud, so when he played, he

629
00:30:55,160 --> 00:30:58,080
Speaker 2: would scream. So they're like, rah, you know what I mean,

630
00:30:58,120 --> 00:31:00,360
Speaker 2: Like you would so you could hear him. So you

631
00:31:00,480 --> 00:31:02,239
Speaker 2: like you drop back to pass and you're like, here's this.

632
00:31:02,920 --> 00:31:05,520
Speaker 2: We put three guys on him, like Reggie the three guys.

633
00:31:05,640 --> 00:31:06,960
Speaker 2: Then he'd throw them out of the way, you know,

634
00:31:08,640 --> 00:31:11,160
Speaker 2: and then you'd hear him coming. You're like God, You're

635
00:31:11,240 --> 00:31:16,040
Speaker 2: like everyone's screaming. So then all of a sudden, he's there, right,

636
00:31:16,080 --> 00:31:20,000
Speaker 2: All of a sudden, he's there, and he's he's on you, right.

637
00:31:20,480 --> 00:31:22,440
Speaker 2: And the most amazing thing is he would grab me.

638
00:31:23,120 --> 00:31:26,840
Speaker 2: He would turn over and fall backwards and let me

639
00:31:26,880 --> 00:31:29,760
Speaker 2: fall on top of him, and then he would hold

640
00:31:29,800 --> 00:31:33,800
Speaker 2: on and there was like this awkward moments, like you know,

641
00:31:33,960 --> 00:31:37,160
Speaker 2: and he'd be like, Steve, how you doing. I'm like,

642
00:31:37,680 --> 00:31:40,200
Speaker 2: not so good, Reggie, not so good. You put your

643
00:31:40,240 --> 00:31:43,080
Speaker 2: dad's here because my dad helped him find my dadil

644
00:31:43,120 --> 00:31:45,560
Speaker 2: worry fell when we went to the rookie and when

645
00:31:45,600 --> 00:31:47,920
Speaker 2: we were seniors in college, we went to the All

646
00:31:47,960 --> 00:31:49,959
Speaker 2: Star Game together and we got to be friends. So

647
00:31:50,120 --> 00:31:53,120
Speaker 2: Reggie would play and he would want to catch up.

648
00:31:53,800 --> 00:31:56,160
Speaker 2: So he would like, ah, so like intense and I

649
00:31:56,200 --> 00:31:58,640
Speaker 2: got he'd have you and then he'd like, hey, so, uh,

650
00:31:58,800 --> 00:32:03,239
Speaker 2: you know, how's everything going? You know? I'm like are

651
00:32:03,240 --> 00:32:06,280
Speaker 2: you married? You know? Like like and I'm like, Reggie,

652
00:32:06,400 --> 00:32:11,040
Speaker 2: freaking let's just talk after right, talk later, Like let's don't.

653
00:32:11,360 --> 00:32:13,240
Speaker 2: I don't want to meet like this anymore. This is

654
00:32:13,280 --> 00:32:17,640
Speaker 2: not appropriate, you know. And that's Reggie. Reggie is the

655
00:32:17,680 --> 00:32:20,880
Speaker 2: greatest athlete because he was in a You appreciate this Bobby.

656
00:32:20,960 --> 00:32:23,600
Speaker 2: He was an emotional athlete. He could be an incredible

657
00:32:23,600 --> 00:32:28,080
Speaker 2: competitor and he could be an incredible friend like that.

658
00:32:28,080 --> 00:32:30,320
Speaker 2: That's hard to do. Most of the friends that I

659
00:32:30,360 --> 00:32:34,240
Speaker 2: played against went the other way. It was worse right,

660
00:32:34,280 --> 00:32:36,680
Speaker 2: they were I know you you know, they just don't

661
00:32:36,720 --> 00:32:40,400
Speaker 2: know how to handle the the athleticism. In the emotional

662
00:32:40,440 --> 00:32:43,080
Speaker 2: athleticism I let. Reggie was amazing. He was a he

663
00:32:43,160 --> 00:32:45,720
Speaker 2: was a pastor. He took We'd go to the Pro

664
00:32:45,760 --> 00:32:50,640
Speaker 2: Bowl in Hawaii and he would have a revival and

665
00:32:50,680 --> 00:32:52,959
Speaker 2: everyone was invited, and so you go down and then

666
00:32:53,000 --> 00:32:54,240
Speaker 2: he was like, who want to be baptized? And the

667
00:32:54,280 --> 00:32:56,720
Speaker 2: guys were quite well, and then they'd go out to

668
00:32:56,760 --> 00:33:01,720
Speaker 2: the ocean. He baptize all these Pro Bowls. Like that's Reggie, man,

669
00:33:01,800 --> 00:33:03,040
Speaker 2: that's Reggie Steve.

670
00:33:03,360 --> 00:33:06,960
Speaker 3: Mid nineties, what was the team that you hated the most?

671
00:33:07,800 --> 00:33:12,560
Speaker 2: Well, it was a love hate because the Dallas Cowboys

672
00:33:12,640 --> 00:33:17,560
Speaker 2: had become very quickly in the early nineties like amazing,

673
00:33:18,680 --> 00:33:23,440
Speaker 2: like there was no weakness. They were and they've unfortunately

674
00:33:23,440 --> 00:33:25,200
Speaker 2: for them, they've never seen close to that since.

675
00:33:25,280 --> 00:33:28,040
Speaker 3: But he's a massive Cowboys fan, by the way, and.

676
00:33:28,880 --> 00:33:33,000
Speaker 2: Talk about underachievement to talent for thirty years. But that team,

677
00:33:33,280 --> 00:33:36,640
Speaker 2: that team was some bad boys, and they're doing a

678
00:33:36,640 --> 00:33:39,200
Speaker 2: Netflix thing on it right now that it's gonna come out.

679
00:33:39,680 --> 00:33:41,320
Speaker 2: I'm actually in an interviewing for it. That's why I

680
00:33:41,320 --> 00:33:46,120
Speaker 2: have to go anyway, The Cowboys were we were the best,

681
00:33:46,120 --> 00:33:47,920
Speaker 2: and they were the best, and that's how I always

682
00:33:47,960 --> 00:33:49,960
Speaker 2: felt like that's where you found out who you were.

683
00:33:50,440 --> 00:33:53,080
Speaker 2: So in that way, I remember when true I remember

684
00:33:53,120 --> 00:33:55,640
Speaker 2: the Cowboys coming to play the Candlestick and as you know,

685
00:33:55,680 --> 00:33:57,840
Speaker 2: you warm up at the fifty and you go opposite

686
00:33:57,840 --> 00:34:00,680
Speaker 2: ways so you see each other, and I'm like, Troy, Man,

687
00:34:00,720 --> 00:34:02,280
Speaker 2: thanks for coming. You know, I'm on this quest to

688
00:34:02,280 --> 00:34:03,520
Speaker 2: see how good I could get, and the only way

689
00:34:03,520 --> 00:34:05,400
Speaker 2: I can see how good I could be is to

690
00:34:05,440 --> 00:34:06,760
Speaker 2: play the best. And you guys are the best, so

691
00:34:06,800 --> 00:34:08,919
Speaker 2: this is gonna be amazing. I almost hugged them because

692
00:34:08,920 --> 00:34:11,160
Speaker 2: I was in this this space where I just I

693
00:34:11,840 --> 00:34:14,080
Speaker 2: wanted to find out, like I wanted to like, how

694
00:34:14,120 --> 00:34:17,120
Speaker 2: good could I be? And I remember Troy's like freaking weirdo.

695
00:34:20,880 --> 00:34:22,400
Speaker 2: But there was that, but that was the there was

696
00:34:22,400 --> 00:34:25,440
Speaker 2: the hatred of it because they were so good that

697
00:34:25,800 --> 00:34:28,600
Speaker 2: they got in the way, like super Bowls were like

698
00:34:29,320 --> 00:34:31,640
Speaker 2: the trophy is like oh, and then it went there.

699
00:34:31,760 --> 00:34:33,279
Speaker 2: You know, it was like one way or another, And

700
00:34:33,320 --> 00:34:38,480
Speaker 2: that was super painful. I mean ninety two championship game

701
00:34:38,520 --> 00:34:40,839
Speaker 2: against the Cowboys that we got beat. I still throw

702
00:34:40,920 --> 00:34:43,919
Speaker 2: up in my mouth when I think about that game

703
00:34:44,000 --> 00:34:45,960
Speaker 2: like that, Like that's the people say to me, what's

704
00:34:45,960 --> 00:34:48,960
Speaker 2: the most memorable? My most memorable thing is losing that game.

705
00:34:49,320 --> 00:34:51,240
Speaker 2: Like you'd think it would be all the good stuff,

706
00:34:51,360 --> 00:34:52,840
Speaker 2: it was like, those were painful times.

707
00:34:53,160 --> 00:34:56,560
Speaker 3: I have final three questions. Let's go with which Super

708
00:34:56,560 --> 00:34:57,600
Speaker 3: Bowl was the sweetest?

709
00:34:58,480 --> 00:35:00,719
Speaker 2: Well, the one I started in was number one for sure,

710
00:35:00,760 --> 00:35:03,840
Speaker 2: because I felt like I dragged myself there over the

711
00:35:03,840 --> 00:35:07,360
Speaker 2: many years and the awkwardness and this strangeness, and there

712
00:35:07,440 --> 00:35:10,960
Speaker 2: was a the goal for nineteen ninety one broke out

713
00:35:10,960 --> 00:35:14,759
Speaker 2: in the Middle East and and uh it was October

714
00:35:15,480 --> 00:35:17,880
Speaker 2: and I was replacing Joe and it was it was

715
00:35:18,640 --> 00:35:20,279
Speaker 2: it was awkward for the whole Bay area, right. It

716
00:35:20,320 --> 00:35:24,560
Speaker 2: was just odd and different and strange and everyone was struggling.

717
00:35:25,080 --> 00:35:28,880
Speaker 2: And the headline was the goal was above the fold

718
00:35:29,000 --> 00:35:30,560
Speaker 2: in the San Francis Carnal. You can go look at

719
00:35:30,560 --> 00:35:34,520
Speaker 2: them at microfiche. Uh. The goal for it's Steve Young's

720
00:35:34,520 --> 00:35:37,439
Speaker 2: fault because it was funny they thought would be funny,

721
00:35:37,520 --> 00:35:39,719
Speaker 2: like it was the funny thing, except that was it

722
00:35:39,800 --> 00:35:42,640
Speaker 2: was me, Like it wasn't funny to me. Uh And

723
00:35:42,719 --> 00:35:48,040
Speaker 2: so yeah, there was. There were great times and hard

724
00:35:48,080 --> 00:35:49,680
Speaker 2: times and it was amazing.

725
00:35:49,800 --> 00:35:52,960
Speaker 3: Did you have time after you finished playing football where

726
00:35:52,960 --> 00:35:55,720
Speaker 3: you had to kind of re discover who you were

727
00:35:55,800 --> 00:35:58,440
Speaker 3: because you had played you had been football your whole life?

728
00:35:59,200 --> 00:36:01,080
Speaker 3: Or were you pretty balance? I mean what you got?

729
00:36:01,080 --> 00:36:03,040
Speaker 2: What a lot of green? I was? I mean I

730
00:36:03,120 --> 00:36:05,839
Speaker 2: was you were totally imbalanced because you had to give

731
00:36:05,920 --> 00:36:08,840
Speaker 2: pour yourself into something to be great or good or great,

732
00:36:09,760 --> 00:36:11,160
Speaker 2: and you had to do it every day all day,

733
00:36:11,440 --> 00:36:15,279
Speaker 2: like that's all you did. And that way balance is

734
00:36:15,320 --> 00:36:18,680
Speaker 2: really hard to find. And I think that retiring was

735
00:36:18,760 --> 00:36:24,480
Speaker 2: like amazing in some ways because you could now recognize

736
00:36:24,480 --> 00:36:29,600
Speaker 2: that there's like wonderful things in your life that you

737
00:36:30,120 --> 00:36:32,480
Speaker 2: didn't they couldn't find a way in before.

738
00:36:33,200 --> 00:36:35,000
Speaker 3: And did I struggle at all?

739
00:36:35,120 --> 00:36:37,160
Speaker 2: Or h I think I think anyone who has a

740
00:36:37,239 --> 00:36:40,160
Speaker 2: dream that actually comes true and they can actually perform,

741
00:36:40,239 --> 00:36:44,000
Speaker 2: like you know, your but jobs that quit at young ages,

742
00:36:44,120 --> 00:36:46,960
Speaker 2: like you know, even acting, I think sometimes you can

743
00:36:47,000 --> 00:36:48,480
Speaker 2: go long time, but most of the times you get

744
00:36:48,640 --> 00:36:51,040
Speaker 2: you get a star goes and then it falls and

745
00:36:51,200 --> 00:36:54,680
Speaker 2: you know, sports is that way. You can be great

746
00:36:54,680 --> 00:36:58,160
Speaker 2: at something worldwide in a way like one of the greatest,

747
00:36:58,320 --> 00:37:01,280
Speaker 2: and then that's it. There's a day it just stops

748
00:37:01,920 --> 00:37:05,920
Speaker 2: and the next day you wake up and you're like, wow, Okay,

749
00:37:05,960 --> 00:37:08,319
Speaker 2: that was amazing. I kind of want to keep doing that.

750
00:37:08,360 --> 00:37:11,279
Speaker 2: But now it's over. And so the great thing I'm good,

751
00:37:11,400 --> 00:37:13,200
Speaker 2: the thing I'm best at, maybe I'll be the best

752
00:37:13,200 --> 00:37:16,440
Speaker 2: at that. My whole life ever is gone and I'm

753
00:37:16,480 --> 00:37:19,560
Speaker 2: actually looking forward and I'm not even good at anything else.

754
00:37:20,120 --> 00:37:22,279
Speaker 2: And so it said, there's a death. I always tell

755
00:37:22,320 --> 00:37:26,279
Speaker 2: people when they're transitioning, it's a death, like treat it

756
00:37:26,280 --> 00:37:29,560
Speaker 2: that way, like it it died, and now you got

757
00:37:29,560 --> 00:37:31,560
Speaker 2: to warn it and now you have to go through

758
00:37:31,560 --> 00:37:34,680
Speaker 2: the pain of it all and all the twelve steps

759
00:37:34,880 --> 00:37:38,280
Speaker 2: and come out and then say, okay, then what's the future.

760
00:37:38,320 --> 00:37:39,799
Speaker 2: I'm going to go try to be great at something

761
00:37:39,800 --> 00:37:43,920
Speaker 2: else and I'm just gonna And my hero, Roger Shaubek,

762
00:37:43,960 --> 00:37:47,280
Speaker 2: I was asking for advice and you go, I'm retiring.

763
00:37:47,320 --> 00:37:49,520
Speaker 2: What should I do? He goes, run, I go run,

764
00:37:49,560 --> 00:37:51,760
Speaker 2: where you go just I don't know, Just run away

765
00:37:51,920 --> 00:37:53,839
Speaker 2: because the game will never leave you. They'll always want

766
00:37:53,880 --> 00:37:55,799
Speaker 2: to ask you questions about it. Don't worry about it,

767
00:37:55,920 --> 00:37:58,239
Speaker 2: but you need to run away from it because all

768
00:37:58,360 --> 00:38:01,160
Speaker 2: all you'll do is try to go back because it's

769
00:38:01,200 --> 00:38:04,279
Speaker 2: such an allure, because it was the time that you

770
00:38:04,360 --> 00:38:09,200
Speaker 2: were the best. And it's been great advice because despite

771
00:38:09,200 --> 00:38:12,080
Speaker 2: the fact that my kids don't care, and the only

772
00:38:12,080 --> 00:38:14,440
Speaker 2: thing they care about is I'm number top five Bobby Bones,

773
00:38:15,719 --> 00:38:19,080
Speaker 2: Like literally, they talk about it all the time. It's

774
00:38:19,120 --> 00:38:22,440
Speaker 2: been a great advice because it is a death and

775
00:38:22,200 --> 00:38:24,279
Speaker 2: I and I treat it that way, like it died

776
00:38:24,360 --> 00:38:28,279
Speaker 2: and it was amazing and now I got a different life.

777
00:38:29,080 --> 00:38:31,480
Speaker 3: What's your favorite picture in your house that has nothing

778
00:38:31,520 --> 00:38:32,280
Speaker 3: to do with sports?

779
00:38:32,600 --> 00:38:34,560
Speaker 2: There's nothing. If you walked in my home, you would

780
00:38:34,560 --> 00:38:37,879
Speaker 2: not know that it was my home. I didn't want

781
00:38:37,880 --> 00:38:39,600
Speaker 2: to do that to the kids. They had enough problems

782
00:38:39,640 --> 00:38:42,719
Speaker 2: at school and especially with my boys. You know, just

783
00:38:42,880 --> 00:38:44,840
Speaker 2: Steve young skid, what do you do? You throw the

784
00:38:44,880 --> 00:38:47,399
Speaker 2: ball and like, no, I hate football, you know, yeah,

785
00:38:47,440 --> 00:38:50,280
Speaker 2: I like music, theater, you know, like so in our home,

786
00:38:51,360 --> 00:38:56,040
Speaker 2: nothing like that we have. I guess we don't have

787
00:38:56,080 --> 00:38:58,920
Speaker 2: a ton of art. We have a lot of transitional art,

788
00:38:58,960 --> 00:39:02,120
Speaker 2: I'll call it. So like for Valentine's Day or Thanksgiving,

789
00:39:02,880 --> 00:39:05,400
Speaker 2: she draws a huge tree and then everyone has to

790
00:39:05,480 --> 00:39:07,920
Speaker 2: write what they're thankful for and put it on the tree.

791
00:39:08,360 --> 00:39:10,280
Speaker 2: So it's like that's the main thing in the house.

792
00:39:10,320 --> 00:39:14,880
Speaker 2: And then there's the during Halloween there's all the pictures

793
00:39:14,880 --> 00:39:16,560
Speaker 2: from all the years of Halloween. They go up and

794
00:39:16,560 --> 00:39:19,000
Speaker 2: then come down. So a lot of transitional art in

795
00:39:19,000 --> 00:39:26,200
Speaker 2: our house. Uh. Look, I you know, there's there's a

796
00:39:26,200 --> 00:39:29,480
Speaker 2: little a small picture of a great picture of Jesus

797
00:39:29,480 --> 00:39:32,280
Speaker 2: that I love. That's like very to me, is very honest.

798
00:39:32,840 --> 00:39:36,000
Speaker 2: That is up on the on the on the we

799
00:39:36,040 --> 00:39:38,920
Speaker 2: love the fireplace. That's just small but just kind of

800
00:39:39,360 --> 00:39:40,480
Speaker 2: reminder that kind of thing.
