That over there, 3 00:00:07,840 --> 00:00:12,360 Speaker 1: well that's Miles and uh yeah, we were just talking 4 00:00:12,760 --> 00:00:16,360 Speaker 1: Greatest Showman because we were trying to figure out So 5 00:00:16,640 --> 00:00:21,320 Speaker 1: one of the first trending stories is the film version 6 00:00:21,320 --> 00:00:26,480 Speaker 1: of Wicked is coming, and it's coming in two doses. 7 00:00:29,120 --> 00:00:33,320 Speaker 1: That's gonna be directed by the director of Crazy Rich 8 00:00:33,400 --> 00:00:37,040 Speaker 1: Asians and People. People are confused as to why they 9 00:00:37,080 --> 00:00:40,440 Speaker 1: have split it into two parts. It's a fucking one 10 00:00:40,520 --> 00:00:46,240 Speaker 1: year intermission. Jackness act like you've been to the theater given, 11 00:00:48,440 --> 00:00:52,199 Speaker 1: but we're also like, I was curious because it seems 12 00:00:52,360 --> 00:00:57,400 Speaker 1: like whatever Hollywood logic that got excited about like taking 13 00:00:57,440 --> 00:01:01,280 Speaker 1: Broadway musicals into movie theaters, like they've they've been getting 14 00:01:01,320 --> 00:01:04,680 Speaker 1: a lot of headwinds with Like I guess West Side 15 00:01:04,680 --> 00:01:08,520 Speaker 1: Story is now officially considered a flop. There was also 16 00:01:08,560 --> 00:01:11,680 Speaker 1: a pandemic on but it definitely was not doing well, 17 00:01:11,720 --> 00:01:16,600 Speaker 1: while Spider Man into the No Way Home Verse was 18 00:01:16,680 --> 00:01:20,720 Speaker 1: doing great. Um in the Heights, I think people were 19 00:01:20,760 --> 00:01:26,520 Speaker 1: disappointed in Cats People Masterpiece, but yeah, I did not 20 00:01:26,600 --> 00:01:30,640 Speaker 1: do great. You're Evan Hanson similar, so we're just you know, 21 00:01:30,680 --> 00:01:32,640 Speaker 1: Before we started recording, we were trying to figure out 22 00:01:32,680 --> 00:01:35,520 Speaker 1: what were like the hits that are giving them like 23 00:01:35,640 --> 00:01:40,080 Speaker 1: the um dollar signs in their eyeballs, and I think 24 00:01:40,120 --> 00:01:45,600 Speaker 1: we landed on Mama Mia and The Greatest Showmen, which 25 00:01:45,640 --> 00:01:48,120 Speaker 1: I think is the one that probably is the example 26 00:01:48,160 --> 00:01:51,320 Speaker 1: we say. People called, man, that movie fucking flopped, and 27 00:01:51,360 --> 00:01:56,640 Speaker 1: you check the fucking receipt because it's you're gonna be like, huh, 28 00:01:56,880 --> 00:02:00,680 Speaker 1: what the Greatest Showmen did? How how many these millions 29 00:02:00,760 --> 00:02:05,640 Speaker 1: of I did million globally? And it's like, I think 30 00:02:05,640 --> 00:02:07,960 Speaker 1: people think it flopped because when it first came out, 31 00:02:08,160 --> 00:02:11,120 Speaker 1: it just like did okay, and then but then it 32 00:02:11,240 --> 00:02:15,519 Speaker 1: like kept had that James Cameron style released where it 33 00:02:15,600 --> 00:02:19,840 Speaker 1: just like kept getting bigger and bigger, and was, you know, 34 00:02:20,200 --> 00:02:23,840 Speaker 1: three four months later, still in movie theaters when most 35 00:02:23,840 --> 00:02:27,000 Speaker 1: movies they are like, well, ten million dollars, that was 36 00:02:27,040 --> 00:02:30,640 Speaker 1: a failure and they're gone, yeah, I mean sing along. 37 00:02:31,400 --> 00:02:34,040 Speaker 1: That's when I knew. I was like, oh, I'm I know, 38 00:02:34,120 --> 00:02:36,760 Speaker 1: not of the fucking the fans of this ship. Because 39 00:02:36,800 --> 00:02:39,480 Speaker 1: when I started seeing things about like them selling out 40 00:02:39,720 --> 00:02:43,960 Speaker 1: sing along, like re premieres of the of the film, 41 00:02:44,120 --> 00:02:46,079 Speaker 1: You're like, okay, so now you have people who are 42 00:02:46,520 --> 00:02:50,880 Speaker 1: willing to cry for this in the theater. Um. But yeah, 43 00:02:51,440 --> 00:02:54,560 Speaker 1: MoMA mia obviously, because that's I mean, I that that 44 00:02:54,720 --> 00:02:58,000 Speaker 1: was a huge um. But I think Mulan Rouge also 45 00:02:58,080 --> 00:02:59,880 Speaker 1: like for I remember when I was in high school 46 00:03:00,040 --> 00:03:03,880 Speaker 1: that sort of began this thing of like, hey, musicals, man, 47 00:03:03,960 --> 00:03:07,160 Speaker 1: they're cool because they're using something like modern pop songs. 48 00:03:07,200 --> 00:03:09,160 Speaker 1: But I feel like that then we got like Chicago, 49 00:03:09,240 --> 00:03:11,960 Speaker 1: which probably gave the studios like you might be able 50 00:03:12,000 --> 00:03:15,840 Speaker 1: to win an oscar, right, yeah, something like that. By 51 00:03:15,880 --> 00:03:18,400 Speaker 1: the way, I am reporting from a logging camp in 52 00:03:18,400 --> 00:03:22,200 Speaker 1: case you can hear the yeah chainsaws in the background, Miles, 53 00:03:22,240 --> 00:03:25,760 Speaker 1: I'm here at a logging camp in the middle of 54 00:03:26,320 --> 00:03:29,160 Speaker 1: the Redwood Force. I'm actually here to report just like 55 00:03:29,280 --> 00:03:32,480 Speaker 1: cheer them on. Yes, Jack, the tags are still on 56 00:03:32,520 --> 00:03:36,400 Speaker 1: your car, heart, vest and pants. Just take them off 57 00:03:36,400 --> 00:03:38,839 Speaker 1: so you blend in a little bit more. Yeah, but 58 00:03:38,880 --> 00:03:41,400 Speaker 1: that's I just thought it would add a nice bit 59 00:03:41,400 --> 00:03:45,920 Speaker 1: of texture, so I made sure the chainsaws were revn 60 00:03:46,160 --> 00:03:53,000 Speaker 1: hey uh. Speaking of reven, Vice president Kamala Harris has 61 00:03:53,080 --> 00:03:55,760 Speaker 1: tested positive for COVID. That has nothing to do with Reving, 62 00:03:56,000 --> 00:04:00,160 Speaker 1: but um, the Revenant, Yeah, so far, no symptoms. She 63 00:04:00,360 --> 00:04:04,400 Speaker 1: is isolating. It's CC guidelines. It's wild to hear like 64 00:04:04,560 --> 00:04:06,680 Speaker 1: this morning. I remember on the news. I think I 65 00:04:06,720 --> 00:04:09,040 Speaker 1: was watching like Andrea Mitchell Reports or something, and the 66 00:04:09,120 --> 00:04:11,080 Speaker 1: talk was just sort of like, oh, it's you know, 67 00:04:11,120 --> 00:04:13,200 Speaker 1: it's terrible. The Vice president is like coming down the 68 00:04:13,280 --> 00:04:15,320 Speaker 1: nilists and like all the other journalists like, yeah, you know, 69 00:04:15,360 --> 00:04:17,800 Speaker 1: things have been pretty laxed recently at the White House, 70 00:04:17,880 --> 00:04:19,800 Speaker 1: like you don't really need masks and stuff. They're like 71 00:04:19,839 --> 00:04:24,400 Speaker 1: testing after the fact, um, so yeah, not not too 72 00:04:24,520 --> 00:04:26,719 Speaker 1: much of a surprise. And then like then they started 73 00:04:26,760 --> 00:04:28,280 Speaker 1: doing this thing. It's like yeah, it's it's like we're 74 00:04:28,320 --> 00:04:30,919 Speaker 1: really learning now how to live with the virus because 75 00:04:30,920 --> 00:04:33,919 Speaker 1: of the things. I'm like, don't do this ship right now. Yeah, 76 00:04:33,920 --> 00:04:37,560 Speaker 1: it's just fun. Now it's fun when somebody tests positive COVID. Oh, 77 00:04:37,640 --> 00:04:39,799 Speaker 1: and it's and and yes, especially with like the access 78 00:04:39,839 --> 00:04:41,800 Speaker 1: to think because when when Donald Trump got it, that 79 00:04:41,880 --> 00:04:44,680 Speaker 1: was the original variant obviously, and and and now where 80 00:04:44,680 --> 00:04:46,360 Speaker 1: we are with the treatments and things like that, it's 81 00:04:46,360 --> 00:04:48,600 Speaker 1: like you're, first of all, y'all are talking from your 82 00:04:48,600 --> 00:04:53,200 Speaker 1: perspective as journalists on a massive cable news outlet where 83 00:04:53,200 --> 00:04:57,040 Speaker 1: you regularly interact with people like the fucking president and so, 84 00:04:57,960 --> 00:05:00,440 Speaker 1: you know, to then say, yeah, it's like we' learning 85 00:05:00,440 --> 00:05:06,599 Speaker 1: to live with it. Harvard is trending. Actually it's just 86 00:05:06,720 --> 00:05:09,520 Speaker 1: a school in Boston. It is trending. And then uh, 87 00:05:09,720 --> 00:05:12,080 Speaker 1: the you can read between the lines and discover that 88 00:05:12,360 --> 00:05:17,480 Speaker 1: they're talking about Harvard. Their president created a UM investigation 89 00:05:17,760 --> 00:05:22,680 Speaker 1: to look at whether Harvard had benefited from slavery and 90 00:05:22,960 --> 00:05:26,479 Speaker 1: perpetrated racial inequality. Like I would have been happy to 91 00:05:26,480 --> 00:05:30,000 Speaker 1: take that money and just told them, yep, yeah you sure, 92 00:05:30,080 --> 00:05:33,240 Speaker 1: you sure did UM. But hey, you want me to 93 00:05:33,240 --> 00:05:36,520 Speaker 1: help you do some research? Oh man, it was real bad. 94 00:05:36,920 --> 00:05:38,760 Speaker 1: You know what I feel. You should feel so bad. 95 00:05:38,760 --> 00:05:42,200 Speaker 1: Actually take this under million and give it to somebody. Yeah. So, uh, 96 00:05:42,400 --> 00:05:45,680 Speaker 1: Harvard University is vowing to spend one million dollars to 97 00:05:45,720 --> 00:05:49,400 Speaker 1: research and atone for its extensive ties with slavery. The 98 00:05:49,400 --> 00:05:53,039 Speaker 1: school's president announced Tuesday with plans to identify and support 99 00:05:53,040 --> 00:05:56,159 Speaker 1: the descendants of enslaved people who labored at the Ivy 100 00:05:56,240 --> 00:05:59,680 Speaker 1: League campus. So that sounds good so far. That that's 101 00:05:59,800 --> 00:06:03,240 Speaker 1: in the first paragraph of the WIPE report. The report 102 00:06:03,279 --> 00:06:06,960 Speaker 1: says the university should make a significant monetary commitment, and 103 00:06:07,040 --> 00:06:09,599 Speaker 1: it should invest in remedies of equal or greater breadth 104 00:06:09,720 --> 00:06:14,240 Speaker 1: than other universities. Hell, yeah, we are, we are with you, 105 00:06:14,920 --> 00:06:19,719 Speaker 1: but start getting a good shake you there remedies, But 106 00:06:19,880 --> 00:06:23,480 Speaker 1: the report stopped short of recommending direct financial reparations and 107 00:06:23,680 --> 00:06:27,680 Speaker 1: officials have no immediate plans for that kind of Uh 108 00:06:28,320 --> 00:06:32,240 Speaker 1: So that's like me being like a chronic cheater. And 109 00:06:32,240 --> 00:06:35,240 Speaker 1: then I'm telling my partner said, you know what, I'm sorry, man, 110 00:06:35,240 --> 00:06:38,279 Speaker 1: I need to spend about ten grand to research in 111 00:06:38,320 --> 00:06:41,000 Speaker 1: a tone for this. I'm gonna go to Hedonism in 112 00:06:41,040 --> 00:06:45,000 Speaker 1: the Caribbean and just do some soul searching down there, 113 00:06:45,600 --> 00:06:48,440 Speaker 1: um and really figure this out for me, Like what 114 00:06:48,680 --> 00:06:51,719 Speaker 1: this is purely to have a headline that says hundred 115 00:06:51,760 --> 00:06:56,159 Speaker 1: million dollars to look inward? Yeah, well, I'm trying to 116 00:06:56,200 --> 00:07:00,240 Speaker 1: figure out what that first part too, like directly a 117 00:07:00,360 --> 00:07:05,280 Speaker 1: tone for like what what do they think that is? 118 00:07:05,560 --> 00:07:10,160 Speaker 1: Are they going to do that via just apologies? Like 119 00:07:10,920 --> 00:07:15,600 Speaker 1: a million dollars to research and atone for it's extensive times, 120 00:07:15,720 --> 00:07:17,520 Speaker 1: that's a lot of therapy for these people to get 121 00:07:17,520 --> 00:07:20,480 Speaker 1: over their connection to those slavery I don't know what 122 00:07:20,520 --> 00:07:23,000 Speaker 1: the funk this is supposed to do. It sounds all 123 00:07:23,080 --> 00:07:28,600 Speaker 1: like nonsense. Um, And in a way, I'm I'm I'm surprised. 124 00:07:28,600 --> 00:07:32,920 Speaker 1: I expected more because it's a very well worded, intelligent, 125 00:07:33,120 --> 00:07:37,520 Speaker 1: disingenuous proclamation of doing something about a problem without actually 126 00:07:37,520 --> 00:07:39,960 Speaker 1: doing anything about it. It's, in fact, it almost it's 127 00:07:40,000 --> 00:07:42,840 Speaker 1: as if many of our top leaders are educated in 128 00:07:42,880 --> 00:07:45,840 Speaker 1: this place or the style of thinking, and are now 129 00:07:45,880 --> 00:07:49,480 Speaker 1: taking that to the halls of Congress and in the 130 00:07:49,520 --> 00:07:53,480 Speaker 1: c suites and companies where we just were just to 131 00:07:53,520 --> 00:07:56,520 Speaker 1: spend a lot of money saying something without really saying it. 132 00:07:57,080 --> 00:08:00,640 Speaker 1: Ye oh huh. But wait, but we're all in, were 133 00:08:00,640 --> 00:08:03,720 Speaker 1: a ton in you know what I mean? All right, 134 00:08:03,840 --> 00:08:06,080 Speaker 1: let's take a quick break and we'll be right back. 135 00:08:16,440 --> 00:08:19,640 Speaker 1: And we're back. It was announced that Bad Bunny is 136 00:08:19,720 --> 00:08:25,200 Speaker 1: going to be the star of upcoming Spider Man spin 137 00:08:25,240 --> 00:08:29,440 Speaker 1: off from Sony Pictures.

I think 190 00:11:30,640 --> 00:11:32,560 Speaker 1: the last couple of years has really done a lot 191 00:11:32,640 --> 00:11:36,880 Speaker 1: for that, whether it's like the U S Gymnasts or 192 00:11:36,880 --> 00:11:40,880 Speaker 1: now Malskka or Ben Simmons, like and also just me 193 00:11:40,960 --> 00:11:42,920 Speaker 1: when I like dealing with my own mental health and 194 00:11:43,000 --> 00:11:46,400 Speaker 1: being like honest enough with myself about it, like how 195 00:11:46,440 --> 00:11:49,960 Speaker 1: to you know, address like patterns of thinking, etcetera that 196 00:11:50,000 --> 00:11:52,679 Speaker 1: I don't know like part of me.

I'm like, man, 198 00:11:55,360 --> 00:11:58,120 Speaker 1: I feel like Ben Simmons just really needs some time 199 00:11:58,160 --> 00:12:02,720 Speaker 1: away from not hearing, you know, like whatever the narrative 200 00:12:02,760 --> 00:12:05,360 Speaker 1: is around him, to like focus on what, you know, 201 00:12:05,440 --> 00:12:07,960 Speaker 1: the thing that he lost the joy of playing basketball, 202 00:12:08,080 --> 00:12:10,440 Speaker 1: rather than a lot of the remedies we hear like 203 00:12:10,480 --> 00:12:13,800 Speaker 1: on TV and stuff, which is like he's soft, get 204 00:12:13,840 --> 00:12:16,720 Speaker 1: out of here, and you're like and I get the argument, sure, 205 00:12:16,800 --> 00:12:19,200 Speaker 1: like for how hard people's lives are, you're being paid 206 00:12:19,240 --> 00:12:21,480 Speaker 1: millions of dollars to be an athlete with the fuck. 207 00:12:21,920 --> 00:12:25,040 Speaker 1: But but underneath all of that is still a person 208 00:12:25,080 --> 00:12:26,760 Speaker 1: who's trying to do something they like and if they're 209 00:12:26,800 --> 00:12:29,800 Speaker 1: unable to like, then I'm I'm really curious in what 210 00:12:30,040 --> 00:12:32,960 Speaker 1: is going on there more than saying like, ah, he's trash, 211 00:12:33,000 --> 00:12:35,920 Speaker 1: he's a fucking fraud. And it's like a highly visible 212 00:12:36,120 --> 00:12:41,440 Speaker 1: person struggling with a mental health issue and being you know, 213 00:12:41,600 --> 00:12:45,480 Speaker 1: just called soft or I think there's multiple mental health issues, 214 00:12:45,880 --> 00:12:48,480 Speaker 1: uh in the NBA playoffs that where this is being 215 00:12:49,320 --> 00:12:53,240 Speaker 1: where this is happening and people are just being ruthless, 216 00:12:53,440 --> 00:12:56,040 Speaker 1: which is you know, and it's wild though too. Right 217 00:12:56,120 --> 00:12:59,760 Speaker 1: Like last week, Shack talked very publicly about his own 218 00:13:00,040 --> 00:13:02,760 Speaker 1: ruggles with depression when he played for the Lakers and 219 00:13:02,760 --> 00:13:06,160 Speaker 1: how he could not even vocalize that he was, you know, 220 00:13:06,320 --> 00:13:10,560 Speaker 1: distressed by it. And you see that he's the same 221 00:13:10,679 --> 00:13:15,040 Speaker 1: guy now on TNT calling, you know, saying that Ben 222 00:13:15,080 --> 00:13:19,240 Speaker 1: Simmonson now is a sucker move You you had, you 223 00:13:19,280 --> 00:13:21,200 Speaker 1: had the aware withth All to understand that in the 224 00:13:21,240 --> 00:13:23,800 Speaker 1: time you were playing it felt very awkward to be 225 00:13:23,880 --> 00:13:27,480 Speaker 1: honest that you were struggling with something yet but you 226 00:13:27,520 --> 00:13:29,439 Speaker 1: haven't quite evolved then to be like, hey man, I've 227 00:13:29,440 --> 00:13:31,920 Speaker 1: been through this ship. This isn't fun. Like I'm really 228 00:13:32,120 --> 00:13:34,720 Speaker 1: I hope, I hope everything works out. But you suddenly 229 00:13:34,840 --> 00:13:37,400 Speaker 1: forgot that you were vulnerable in that moment and decided 230 00:13:37,440 --> 00:13:39,360 Speaker 1: to just point the finger. And I'm not even trying 231 00:13:39,360 --> 00:13:42,720 Speaker 1: to really be like, but on some level we have 232 00:13:42,880 --> 00:13:45,360 Speaker 1: to begin to look at things with a little more 233 00:13:45,720 --> 00:13:50,040 Speaker 1: nuance than nearly like rich guy, rich guy is human? 234 00:13:50,160 --> 00:13:54,320 Speaker 1: Fuck that right, right? And if it does just feel 235 00:13:54,320 --> 00:13:56,400 Speaker 1: like people are more excited to talk about a team 236 00:13:56,440 --> 00:13:59,679 Speaker 1: when they performed badly than there when they perform well. Well, 237 00:14:00,120 --> 00:14:03,000 Speaker 1: but that's I think that's every sport, right like, because 238 00:14:03,040 --> 00:14:05,079 Speaker 1: we all I think it's sports fans. There's always like 239 00:14:05,120 --> 00:14:07,880 Speaker 1: a little bit of resentment building up for another player 240 00:14:08,000 --> 00:14:10,440 Speaker 1: or team and when suddenly it's time to like be 241 00:14:10,559 --> 00:14:13,800 Speaker 1: able to like quote unquote objectively say this thing is 242 00:14:13,840 --> 00:14:17,280 Speaker 1: a mess, huh like it sort of it gives you 243 00:14:17,320 --> 00:14:21,760 Speaker 1: that license to to really feed all that ship. Um. 244 00:14:21,840 --> 00:14:24,400 Speaker 1: And it happens like in every league, whether it's people 245 00:14:24,400 --> 00:14:26,320 Speaker 1: clowning on the nets for being a super team that's 246 00:14:26,320 --> 00:14:30,320 Speaker 1: getting swept or like you know, uh, it's like in 247 00:14:30,440 --> 00:14:33,240 Speaker 1: like England right now, everyone's like laughing at Manchester United 248 00:14:33,280 --> 00:14:35,440 Speaker 1: because they're like, oh, how far they've fallen. But that's 249 00:14:35,480 --> 00:14:37,800 Speaker 1: because there's so many years of success that people are like, 250 00:14:38,280 --> 00:14:41,240 Speaker 1: it's time for y'all to get fucking torn apart, and 251 00:14:41,280 --> 00:14:44,520 Speaker 1: that's all we're waiting for. Yeah, I don't know, I guess. 252 00:14:44,520 --> 00:14:46,840 Speaker 1: And in the early rounds, the thing that's notable is 253 00:14:46,920 --> 00:14:49,720 Speaker 1: somebody losing in the first round as opposed to like 254 00:14:49,800 --> 00:14:52,760 Speaker 1: last year. I'm sure there was a lot of that 255 00:14:52,960 --> 00:14:55,440 Speaker 1: with Yeah, I mean there was like people wanted to 256 00:14:55,440 --> 00:14:58,280 Speaker 1: talk about Ben Simmons disappearing against the Hawks, but then 257 00:14:58,320 --> 00:15:01,520 Speaker 1: eventually the story became damn you honest really did it. 258 00:15:01,640 --> 00:15:04,680 Speaker 1: So hopefully as the playoffs go along, the discourse gets 259 00:15:04,720 --> 00:15:07,760 Speaker 1: a little bit more, you know, just excited about people 260 00:15:07,840 --> 00:15:11,320 Speaker 1: being really good at basketball. You know, if you're if 261 00:15:11,360 --> 00:15:13,360 Speaker 1: you're looking for that, you can go to a podcast 262 00:15:13,360 --> 00:15:18,280 Speaker 1: called Mylon Jackot Matt the Sixers. I don't know, I 263 00:15:18,280 --> 00:15:20,520 Speaker 1: don't I don't watch the losses, so I get to 264 00:15:20,800 --> 00:15:24,800 Speaker 1: just have sweet memories of embiids game winner from Game three, 265 00:15:24,880 --> 00:15:28,840 Speaker 1: dancing in my head. Ay, it might last me the 266 00:15:28,840 --> 00:15:31,480 Speaker 1: whole offseason because they might not win another game because 267 00:15:31,600 --> 00:15:34,840 Speaker 1: they have lost two in a row after leading three. 268 00:15:34,880 --> 00:15:39,600 Speaker 1: Oh but you know, I'm I'll be fine. What you're 269 00:15:39,640 --> 00:15:43,480 Speaker 1: describing sounds like a light pitch for like Severance. Like 270 00:15:43,600 --> 00:15:46,120 Speaker 1: but first that's what I am almost Severn Sixers fan. 271 00:15:46,320 --> 00:15:48,600 Speaker 1: I just only watched the Winds. You're like, what is 272 00:15:48,680 --> 00:15:50,760 Speaker 1: he doing there? He goes in that room and like 273 00:15:51,240 --> 00:15:53,920 Speaker 1: plugs in, but he's only like replaying this one Joel 274 00:15:54,000 --> 00:15:56,400 Speaker 1: and bead Buck over and over again and he comes out. 275 00:15:56,600 --> 00:15:58,880 Speaker 1: I just started watching Severance, by the way, last night. 276 00:15:58,920 --> 00:16:02,800 Speaker 1: That ship is so good. Yeah, but in a way 277 00:16:02,880 --> 00:16:06,080 Speaker 1: like whether it's the toy like trying to disconnect yourself 278 00:16:06,080 --> 00:16:08,120 Speaker 1: from the toil or the pain of like your life 279 00:16:08,160 --> 00:16:10,920 Speaker 1: like a man. I there are a few there are 280 00:16:10,920 --> 00:16:13,600 Speaker 1: a few games, matches, moments I could I could take 281 00:16:13,600 --> 00:16:16,400 Speaker 1: out of my mind. But anyway, um, all right, well 282 00:16:16,400 --> 00:16:18,960 Speaker 1: those are some of the things that are trending on 283 00:16:19,000 --> 00:16:22,240 Speaker 1: this Tuesday afternoon.
