Respect 1055 00:48:29,840 --> 00:48:32,800 Speaker 3: that that's a grind. The reason I love that is 1056 00:48:32,840 --> 00:48:36,040 Speaker 3: because I've made mistakes like that in my career, where 1057 00:48:36,440 --> 00:48:39,800 Speaker 3: you let people make you feel some way about somebody, 1058 00:48:41,920 --> 00:48:44,080 Speaker 3: And when I would get to the other side of it, 1059 00:48:44,160 --> 00:48:47,239 Speaker 3: I realized, Man, it's so much better when you could 1060 00:48:47,280 --> 00:48:52,160 Speaker 3: just get it out, get to it, because usually usually 1061 00:48:52,680 --> 00:48:54,320 Speaker 3: nobody really wants the problem. 1062 00:48:54,800 --> 00:48:56,880 Speaker 1: They want solutions, yeah, and things. 1063 00:48:56,880 --> 00:48:59,640 Speaker 2: It's not somebody I'm seeing every day. Like you spend 1064 00:48:59,680 --> 00:49:01,279 Speaker 2: more time with the people you work with then you 1065 00:49:01,320 --> 00:49:04,240 Speaker 2: do your family. So yeah, that that part. 1066 00:49:04,080 --> 00:49:07,920 Speaker 3: Too, not every day every day beefing with somebody every day, 1067 00:49:08,120 --> 00:49:10,840 Speaker 3: Like damn, I got to come up with a roast 1068 00:49:10,880 --> 00:49:12,400 Speaker 3: every day. You know. 1069 00:49:12,440 --> 00:49:15,799 Speaker 1: I didn't have to do that. Yeah. People have done 1070 00:49:15,880 --> 00:49:17,280 Speaker 1: ship like that to me my whole career. 1071 00:49:17,520 --> 00:49:20,200 Speaker 3: I told that story we were with Ryan Coogler about 1072 00:49:20,200 --> 00:49:23,239 Speaker 3: how when I when they first put me on Afternoons.
