It only comes with one. 0:01:38.000 --> 0:01:43.360 Yes, Todd Friday the thirteenth, I'd still take Jaws over 0:01:43.440 --> 0:01:44.080 that in Halloween. 0:01:44.800 --> 0:01:47.560 Any other suggestions, so, yes, Pauline, Yeah, I'm reading about it. 0:01:47.640 --> 0:01:50.960 John Williams, the composer, the famous movie composer, brought it 0:01:51.000 --> 0:01:54.160 to Steven Spielberg and that this is it, and he goes, 0:01:54.200 --> 0:01:56.800 that's it. He isn't there more on the way, he goes, exactly, 0:01:56.840 --> 0:01:59.800 there's more on the way, Like it's foreboding of the 0:02:00.320 --> 0:02:03.360 m the shark. It became a thing though. You would 0:02:03.400 --> 0:02:06.520 go to certain places and you just go, dude, oh, 0:02:06.520 --> 0:02:07.200 don't go in the water. 0:02:07.360 --> 0:02:10.960 Yeah. I remember kids didn't want to go into a 0:02:11.000 --> 0:02:11.720 swimming pool. 0:02:12.360 --> 0:02:15.480 I saw Jaws Dan at age six, which is a 0:02:15.520 --> 0:02:16.760 bad decision by my parents. 0:02:16.840 --> 0:02:17.560 Yes, that is six. 0:02:17.680 --> 0:02:20.440 Yes, My cross the street neighbor had a above ground 0:02:20.720 --> 0:02:23.120 swimming pool that I would not enter for a while. 0:02:23.840 --> 0:02:26.120 All right, So you got basketball tonight and got Game 0:02:26.200 --> 0:02:29.320 five thunder and the Pacers JJ spawn at the US 0:02:29.440 --> 0:02:33.880 Open his first major, and the Red Sox have shipped 0:02:34.160 --> 0:02:37.360 Rafael Devers to the Giants and a little bit of 0:02:37.360 --> 0:02:40.080 a surprise considering he was leading the Red Sox in 0:02:40.160 --> 0:02:43.320 just about all of their offensive categories. Phone calls eight 0:02:43.360 --> 0:02:45.960 seven to seven three DP show operator Tyler's sitting by 0:02:46.000 --> 0:02:48.120 best and worst to the weekend? Had that for you 0:02:48.160 --> 0:02:50.560 coming up? I think this is the fifth year they've 0:02:50.560 --> 0:02:54.480 been doing the tight End University in George Kittle helped 0:02:54.520 --> 0:02:58.240 start that, and the Niners tight end back on the program. 0:02:58.720 --> 0:03:01.880 Do you reject any tight ends that want to go 0:03:01.960 --> 0:03:04.280 to tight End University? 0:03:04.480 --> 0:03:05.520 Hey Dad, good boarding man? 0:03:05.600 --> 0:03:06.440 Hi Ben, how are you doing. 0:03:06.520 --> 0:03:07.440 Happy Father's Day? 0:03:07.560 --> 0:03:08.679 Thank you you too? 0:03:08.800 --> 0:03:14.320 Oh my goodness. Let's see by uh do I reject anybody? Actually? So, 0:03:14.440 --> 0:03:16.679 how didn't you start it off where we were? 0:03:17.639 --> 0:03:19.720 How of just doing only active players, in the last 0:03:19.760 --> 0:03:22.040 two years, we've opened it up to all active practice 0:03:22.040 --> 0:03:24.160 squad guys who've been in the league who might not 0:03:24.200 --> 0:03:26.440 be on a team yet. So no, it is as 0:03:26.440 --> 0:03:27.800 long as I can get a hold of those guys 0:03:27.800 --> 0:03:29.320 and they have an EMAO address, I can send an 0:03:29.320 --> 0:03:31.639 invite form and fill out on the registration form two 0:03:31.960 --> 0:03:33.800 they're invited. So I think we have between eighty and 0:03:33.840 --> 0:03:35.720 ninety guys this year, which I'm pretty excited about. 0:03:35.760 --> 0:03:37.840 But is there a syllabus, Like if you're going to 0:03:37.920 --> 0:03:40.120 a university, they give you a kind of a rundown 0:03:40.160 --> 0:03:42.600 of classes that you go to, Like what is required 0:03:42.720 --> 0:03:45.400 in all seriousness of tight End University. 0:03:46.720 --> 0:03:48.640 Really for guys to be there. As long as you're 0:03:48.680 --> 0:03:50.880 on an NFL roster were in like the last year, 0:03:50.960 --> 0:03:54.880 you're invited. But syllabus wise, what we do is we 0:03:54.920 --> 0:03:57.320 do a classroom session and you have guys like so, 0:03:57.600 --> 0:04:02.360 I've talked about run blocking, past protech, yack. Those are 0:04:02.360 --> 0:04:05.120 things that I focused on the past years. Travis talks 0:04:05.120 --> 0:04:08.480 about his route tree, how he reads coverages. Greg Olsen 0:04:08.520 --> 0:04:12.640 talks about his routes. We've had Jordan Rita spoke former 0:04:12.720 --> 0:04:15.720 Washington tight End about his releases. This year, Evan Ingram's 0:04:15.760 --> 0:04:17.800 going to talk, which I'm excited about. We got him 0:04:17.880 --> 0:04:21.640 up for the first time. And Jeremy Shockey will hopefully 0:04:21.720 --> 0:04:23.960 be teaching something. Gronk has taught something in the past, 0:04:24.080 --> 0:04:27.520 Dallas Clark and so really it's just we try to 0:04:27.560 --> 0:04:29.520 give We try to cover all the things that Titan 0:04:29.600 --> 0:04:31.560 does because we're the only position that really gets to 0:04:31.600 --> 0:04:35.119 do everything, you know, pass bro run, blocking, catching, catching 0:04:35.120 --> 0:04:38.440 the football, scoring touchdowns, running the ball sometimes. So like 0:04:38.520 --> 0:04:40.560 we kind of try to cover as much as possibly 0:04:40.600 --> 0:04:42.440 can and the limited time that we have with these 0:04:42.440 --> 0:04:45.680 guys and just really try to give him that's an 0:04:45.720 --> 0:04:47.919 extra step forward in their careers to help them make 0:04:47.960 --> 0:04:49.640 a team to following the following camp. 0:04:50.200 --> 0:04:52.160 Are you guys like a union? I mean, it feels 0:04:52.240 --> 0:04:55.760 like the tight end was kind of forgotten. Uh, you 0:04:55.800 --> 0:04:59.080 know when you look at franchise tags and kind of 0:04:59.080 --> 0:05:03.640 fighting for those salaries there. But how much how much 0:05:04.000 --> 0:05:06.440 do you talk about the finances of playing the position? 0:05:07.400 --> 0:05:09.000 You know what, we we do that every once in 0:05:09.040 --> 0:05:10.800 a while, you know, we do bring it. We do 0:05:10.920 --> 0:05:13.000 talk about things other than just football. Like we had 0:05:13.040 --> 0:05:15.440 some financial buysers come in one year and talk about that. 0:05:15.440 --> 0:05:17.240 We had some venture guys come in to talk about 0:05:17.279 --> 0:05:20.400 investments and so that is something. But what we do, 0:05:20.560 --> 0:05:23.239 like the only way for the tighten market to continue 0:05:23.240 --> 0:05:25.119 to grow is if everybody's getting paid. 0:05:25.120 --> 0:05:26.320 That's that's the only way to do it. 0:05:26.360 --> 0:05:27.919 That you can't just have one guy do it and 0:05:27.960 --> 0:05:29.919 then it just sits for three or four years, because 0:05:29.920 --> 0:05:32.159 then you're stuck and it's staggning. No one's getting paid. 0:05:32.200 --> 0:05:34.440 So we want everybody, like I want everybody to have 0:05:34.480 --> 0:05:36.600 great seasons. I want everybody to have great games, just 0:05:36.600 --> 0:05:38.760 not against the forty nine ers, but throughout the rest 0:05:39.200 --> 0:05:40.560 the season they can play as well as they want 0:05:40.600 --> 0:05:42.280 to because I want guys to get paid to keep 0:05:42.320 --> 0:05:44.479 bumping up that market. So by the time that you know, 0:05:44.560 --> 0:05:47.240 brock Bowers is doing his contract in three years, he's 0:05:47.279 --> 0:05:49.000 going for over twenty million, which he will. 0:05:49.360 --> 0:05:50.360 And that's just the whole point. 0:05:50.360 --> 0:05:54.240 You know, when Titan you first started, I think the 0:05:54.279 --> 0:05:55.960 top of the mark was fifteen. 0:05:55.560 --> 0:05:58.240 And now we're almost twenty. So like we're continually growing it. 0:05:58.640 --> 0:06:01.839 And you know, as a tight end and as a 0:06:01.839 --> 0:06:03.960 position who does everything, yeah, I think we should be. 0:06:03.920 --> 0:06:05.560 Making more money, but we're working on it. 0:06:06.160 --> 0:06:09.440 I go back to Jimmy Graham. Jimmy Graham didn't want 0:06:09.440 --> 0:06:12.080 to be paid as a tight end, and I don't 0:06:12.120 --> 0:06:14.200 know what that did to the salary structure, but I 0:06:14.240 --> 0:06:16.719 know he was very vocal at the time that hey, 0:06:17.480 --> 0:06:20.760 I knew what wide receivers do as well as play 0:06:20.839 --> 0:06:23.920 tight end. Did that change the salary structure? 0:06:25.000 --> 0:06:25.200 You know? 0:06:25.240 --> 0:06:27.040 I think it was a step in the right direction, 0:06:27.240 --> 0:06:28.840 because I don't. I think they still paid him like 0:06:28.880 --> 0:06:32.200 a tight end. But like, just getting that idea out there, 0:06:32.320 --> 0:06:34.320 it kind of made everybody else kind of think about 0:06:34.320 --> 0:06:36.800 it and be like, yeah, you know what, You're right, Hey, 0:06:36.839 --> 0:06:39.240 how come I have eighty catches and eleven hundred yards 0:06:39.240 --> 0:06:42.640 and ten touchdowns and you know, Travis Kelce was making 0:06:42.680 --> 0:06:45.000 like eight million dollars in the next a wide receivers 0:06:45.000 --> 0:06:47.479 making eighteen to twenty at the time, So it's just like, 0:06:47.520 --> 0:06:49.880 how can you, you know, not respect that position enough 0:06:49.920 --> 0:06:51.920 to give him that money, Because if you look back 0:06:52.000 --> 0:06:54.560 to it, like the last what ten Super Bowls, there's 0:06:54.880 --> 0:06:57.080 basically a Pro Bowlor Crini all pro tight end in 0:06:57.120 --> 0:06:59.719 every single one of those games, making playas and so 0:07:00.480 --> 0:07:02.600 the team that have great tight ends usually win the 0:07:02.640 --> 0:07:05.720 most football games in my opinion, So just keep emphasizing 0:07:05.720 --> 0:07:07.880 those tight ends and keep paying them a lot of money. 0:07:08.120 --> 0:07:12.200 George kittle on behalf of tight End University and Prevent 0:07:12.520 --> 0:07:14.880 presented by Bud light fifth year that they've had this 0:07:15.360 --> 0:07:19.240 in Nashville. How much do you joke with rock party 0:07:19.280 --> 0:07:20.640 now on how much he's making. 0:07:21.360 --> 0:07:23.400 Oh my goodness, it's so nice he can pay for 0:07:23.440 --> 0:07:25.680 our Halloween party. Now, Dan, I'm so excited about it. 0:07:25.760 --> 0:07:27.800 That's been on. You know, Jimmy g used to pay 0:07:27.800 --> 0:07:29.120 for it. That's what the quarterback does. 0:07:29.160 --> 0:07:33.240 And then uh wait, wait, what's the Halloween party? Like, 0:07:33.280 --> 0:07:34.800 what what does that encompass? 0:07:35.160 --> 0:07:36.920 Oh, we just like rent, we ran out of a restaurant, 0:07:36.960 --> 0:07:37.440 a bar area. 0:07:37.600 --> 0:07:39.880 Just make it a private event so guys can go 0:07:39.920 --> 0:07:41.640 to it with their wives is significant other. It's just 0:07:41.680 --> 0:07:44.200 like I like to I like to congregate outside of 0:07:44.240 --> 0:07:46.600 the facility so you can actually build these relationships, enjoy 0:07:46.640 --> 0:07:48.560 going to the work with the guys. And I'm always 0:07:48.600 --> 0:07:50.600 big the one thing the Niners do a good job of. 0:07:50.640 --> 0:07:52.360 They always bring the wives and the families in all 0:07:52.400 --> 0:07:53.960 the time to a couple of events throughout the year, 0:07:53.960 --> 0:07:56.720 and so I just want to reemphasize that. So you no, 0:07:57.400 --> 0:07:59.240 so like, when you know, my wife goes to the game, 0:07:59.280 --> 0:08:00.920 it's not the first time she's hanging out with one 0:08:00.920 --> 0:08:02.840 of our defensive lineman's wives. You know, something like that 0:08:02.920 --> 0:08:05.160 just so do they have a relationship and gives guys 0:08:05.160 --> 0:08:07.080 an opportunity to b looss some steam in the season, 0:08:07.080 --> 0:08:08.520 whether we're having a good year or a bad year. 0:08:08.560 --> 0:08:10.760 And so hopefully Brock will be paying for that one. 0:08:11.480 --> 0:08:13.480 Hopefully he's paying for a lot of stuff that'd be helpful. 0:08:13.600 --> 0:08:14.440 I would enjoy that. 0:08:14.560 --> 0:08:17.080 But you can joke with him about oh yeah, the 0:08:17.120 --> 0:08:17.800 amount of money. 0:08:18.360 --> 0:08:21.160 Oh yeah, you know what it's I told him, you know, 0:08:21.200 --> 0:08:22.720 before the deal's even done. I was like, you guys 0:08:22.760 --> 0:08:24.960 are in a different stratus for this quarterback market. Like 0:08:25.440 --> 0:08:28.200 I'm over here fighting for nineteen to twenty million dollars 0:08:28.240 --> 0:08:31.960 a year and you're you're above fifty. So I was like, look, 0:08:32.120 --> 0:08:34.360 just whatever, you know, whatever's best for you guys. I 0:08:34.360 --> 0:08:36.640 know you'll make the right decision. But you know, I'm 0:08:36.760 --> 0:08:38.760 happy for Brock to him and his wife finally got 0:08:38.800 --> 0:08:39.240 it done. 0:08:39.720 --> 0:08:42.480 And McCaffrey, though he makes good coin to you got 0:08:42.520 --> 0:08:44.080 a lot of guys who make a lot of money 0:08:44.120 --> 0:08:44.760 on the Niners. 0:08:45.280 --> 0:08:46.440 We have a lot of guys make a lot of money. 0:08:46.440 --> 0:08:47.360 We have a lot of guys who make a lot 0:08:47.360 --> 0:08:48.079 of football players. 0:08:48.080 --> 0:08:52.000 So I feel like that's good for football McCaffrey.

And then I just give 0:09:08.000 --> 0:09:11.560 him my valuable time. It's hard to get a gift 0:09:11.559 --> 0:09:14.000 for somebody who can get whatever they want. Man, that's 0:09:14.040 --> 0:09:15.040 always the toughest thing. 0:09:15.280 --> 0:09:19.040 But you could have, you know, an autograph jersey. 0:09:19.200 --> 0:09:21.560 You know what that is.

I'm gonna even though 0:10:02.840 --> 0:10:04.319 he's got a little bit shorter arm so it might be 0:10:04.360 --> 0:10:06.560 easier for him, I'm still gonna take myself. 0:10:06.960 --> 0:10:09.160 How about a tight end university. 0:10:09.440 --> 0:10:11.960 Oh, I definitely don't bench the most of tight end 0:10:12.040 --> 0:10:13.600 university that is, that is not. 0:10:13.600 --> 0:10:14.400 But we do. 0:10:14.640 --> 0:10:16.360 We do have some fun workouts.

We 0:10:42.720 --> 0:10:44.840 push that out as much as we possibly can. Uh, 0:10:44.920 --> 0:10:46.440 you know, just grills and stuff like that. 0:10:46.840 --> 0:10:49.800 Can you kid Travis Kelcey about Taylor Swift? 0:10:50.960 --> 0:10:52.960 I think Greg Olsen does that enough for everybody. 0:10:54.080 --> 0:10:57.800 Give me, for give me for instance. 0:10:58.600 --> 0:11:02.040 Uh well, we first off, we just call Greg Olsen 0:11:02.120 --> 0:11:04.000 Dad twenty four to seven. That's what me and Travis 0:11:04.000 --> 0:11:05.760 call him, because he's like you should see the way 0:11:05.800 --> 0:11:06.640 he coaches on the field. 0:11:06.679 --> 0:11:09.280 It's like he's coaching Pop Warner football. It's fantastic. 0:11:10.760 --> 0:11:12.960 But he likes to He likes to give everybody some 0:11:12.960 --> 0:11:15.600 crap every once in a while, whether it's Travis in 0:11:15.600 --> 0:11:18.480 his relationship with Taylor. It's all good hearted though, because 0:11:18.480 --> 0:11:21.600 we all love tre Travis. I mean, Travis has done 0:11:21.600 --> 0:11:22.959 so much for Titan News, done so much for the 0:11:22.960 --> 0:11:25.480 Titan position. And you know, when you're as awesome with 0:11:25.520 --> 0:11:27.439 a guy that he is, it's kind of it's really 0:11:27.480 --> 0:11:29.199 fun just to you know, bust his balls once in 0:11:29.240 --> 0:11:29.559 a while. 0:11:30.160 --> 0:11:32.960 I know you want to mention your sponsors there. We 0:11:33.080 --> 0:11:35.480 do this every year, so can you see them all? 0:11:35.640 --> 0:11:39.720 I can see him. I brought my Gatorade water okay 0:11:39.960 --> 0:11:42.360 as well, you got bud light, you got dude wipes, 0:11:42.440 --> 0:11:43.080 you got. 0:11:43.960 --> 0:11:47.720 We have bud like Gatorade, Dude Wipes, old Spice, New Era, 0:11:47.920 --> 0:11:49.200 we had all these. We have a bunch of new 0:11:49.200 --> 0:11:51.720 sponsors in which we're really excited about. You know, it's 0:11:51.920 --> 0:11:55.440 we raise all this money. Basically every Titan that comes in, 0:11:55.520 --> 0:11:59.520 they pay for their flight. We take care of everything else, hotel, transportation, food, 0:12:00.520 --> 0:12:04.600 the concert with country musicians, a golf tournament. We take 0:12:04.640 --> 0:12:06.319 care of everything. We wanted to be a first class 0:12:06.360 --> 0:12:08.640 event and our sponsors make it possible. And the cool 0:12:08.640 --> 0:12:11.080 thing is too, After we raise all this money, everything 0:12:11.120 --> 0:12:14.840 that's left me, Travis and Greg Olsen, we kind of 0:12:15.080 --> 0:12:17.240 divvy it up and then we donate it to charities 0:12:17.240 --> 0:12:19.120 of our choice, so we give back at the end. 0:12:19.800 --> 0:12:21.400 So basically raising a bunch of money, like I always 0:12:21.440 --> 0:12:23.520 donate my money the Iowa Children's Hospital, some close to 0:12:23.559 --> 0:12:26.640 my heart's. I went to college there. Travis has his foundation, 0:12:26.760 --> 0:12:29.400 Greg has his foundation, and so that's really the fun 0:12:29.400 --> 0:12:29.880 part about it. 0:12:29.920 --> 0:12:32.959 Too great to talk to you again. Hopefully we'll talk 0:12:32.960 --> 0:12:34.240 to you during the season. Thank you. 0:12:34.920 --> 0:12:37.080 Yeah, you know what. Dan Zoray's great talking man. 0:12:37.360 --> 0:12:40.000 At George Kettle. He's the Niners tight end in his 0:12:40.400 --> 0:12:45.240 ninth season six time Pro Bowl tight End. Yeh see. 0:12:45.320 --> 0:12:47.680 I love this idea that Greg Olsen is like the dad, 0:12:47.760 --> 0:12:49.640 the pop Warner dad out there. 0:12:49.480 --> 0:12:51.960 Coaching the boys, come boys. He probably got the whistle 0:12:52.080 --> 0:12:55.080 and the tight tight bike shorts there that he's wearing, 0:12:56.640 --> 0:12:59.840 has his shirt tucked into his pants. It's so funny, 0:13:00.120 --> 0:13:01.520 even nothing to the imagination. 0:13:01.679 --> 0:13:02.480 Come on, let's go. 0:13:04.880 --> 0:13:05.080 Yes. 0:13:05.400 --> 0:13:08.120 I remember when Kittle on these guys announced tight End University, 0:13:08.160 --> 0:13:09.559 like four or five years ago. I thought it was 0:13:09.559 --> 0:13:10.960 a bit. I thought it was a joke. They got 0:13:10.960 --> 0:13:13.839 like sponsors. It's like a sabbatical for them. 0:13:13.920 --> 0:13:15.960 I thought it was a scam to go and drink beer. 0:13:16.880 --> 0:13:19.840 It still could be. Yeah, like, oh, you know, my brother, 0:13:19.960 --> 0:13:21.880 my oldest brother's in a book club. But they don't 0:13:22.080 --> 0:13:24.520 read books. But he always says he's going to the 0:13:24.559 --> 0:13:26.160 book club, and all they do is sit around and 0:13:26.320 --> 0:13:29.640 drink beer. All right, Well, take a break, just getting 0:13:29.679 --> 0:13:31.720 started for the second hour of the program.

And then we 0:14:55.720 --> 0:14:59.120 thought it was going to be extremely deep. Therefore you 0:14:59.120 --> 0:15:02.320 wouldn't need Show. But you have a team of eer 0:15:02.840 --> 0:15:06.840 that's over four right now, and now you need stability, 0:15:07.400 --> 0:15:09.960 and maybe relief is on the way with Show, Heyotani, 0:15:10.040 --> 0:15:13.080 But man, I hope it's a slow burn for them. 0:15:13.720 --> 0:15:16.640 But he's pitched a simulated game. He didn't go to 0:15:16.720 --> 0:15:20.560 a minor league ballpark to have that, But here he 0:15:20.720 --> 0:15:24.760 is now pitching, and how much can you get out 0:15:24.760 --> 0:15:26.680 of him? You want to keep him in the lineup, 0:15:27.000 --> 0:15:28.960 and that's why they didn't send him down to Double 0:15:28.960 --> 0:15:32.120 A or Triple A to have a minor league workout. 0:15:32.720 --> 0:15:36.960 But he's back and for a battered rotation, how much 0:15:36.960 --> 0:15:39.880 can you ask of him if you're going to pitch 0:15:39.920 --> 0:15:43.440 him for a couple innings, probably three or four starts 0:15:43.480 --> 0:15:45.880 that way, and then all of a sudden you get 0:15:45.960 --> 0:15:48.240 up to maybe five innings, but it won't be innings, 0:15:48.320 --> 0:15:51.400 it'll be a pitch count for Dave Roberts with show 0:15:51.440 --> 0:15:54.160 Heyo Tani, but he's so valuable you never want to 0:15:54.200 --> 0:15:57.240 take his bat out of the lineup. But I think 0:15:57.280 --> 0:16:01.160 if you're going to ease him in, if that's possible, 0:16:01.160 --> 0:16:03.200 to ease him in and get to pitch him against 0:16:03.240 --> 0:16:07.080 the Padres and make his debut, you can't get caught 0:16:07.160 --> 0:16:09.480 up in And Dave Roberts knows this, but you can't 0:16:09.480 --> 0:16:13.480 get caught up in, Oh man, he's unbelievable or he's 0:16:13.520 --> 0:16:17.240 pitching so well. No, you have to fight the urge 0:16:17.280 --> 0:16:20.200 to leave him in. You got to be disciplined with that. 0:16:20.320 --> 0:16:24.080 It's got to be nope, Nope, he's got sixty pitches 0:16:24.200 --> 0:16:26.840 at MAC sixty pitches because he might get in trouble 0:16:27.080 --> 0:16:28.400 and then all of a sudden you go, no, I'm 0:16:28.400 --> 0:16:31.600 going to take him out. But I think having him 0:16:31.640 --> 0:16:35.920 back pretty awesome. Mike and Alabama. Hi, Mike, what's on 0:16:35.960 --> 0:16:36.760 your mind? 0:16:38.160 --> 0:16:40.480 Come one of fellas.

I'm a wedding photographer and a couple 0:17:03.240 --> 0:17:07.640 hired me to accompany them from South Alabama to Dyersville, Iowa, 0:17:08.200 --> 0:17:11.600 where they were married on the Pictures Mound at the 0:17:11.600 --> 0:17:16.600 Field of Dreams movie sites. Their dependents were ghost players 0:17:16.600 --> 0:17:20.359 in costume. We got to stay in the house overnight. 0:17:21.800 --> 0:17:24.520 It was the most amazing experience. You can't imagine one 0:17:24.520 --> 0:17:27.199 o'clock in the morning, said now, shipping a Field of 0:17:27.240 --> 0:17:30.439 Dreams Bourbon, looking out at the field, waiting for you know, 0:17:30.600 --> 0:17:33.119 Terrence man or Rake and Sella to come out of 0:17:33.160 --> 0:17:36.639 the corn.
