18
00:01:08,440 --> 00:01:12,800
Speaker 1: So they're playing this past Sunday, and in the middle

20
00:01:17,360 --> 00:01:20,840

21
00:01:20,880 --> 00:01:23,440
Speaker 1: half a game check? That's a good question, thank you.

22
00:01:23,440 --> 00:01:25,800
Speaker 1: We should check into that. We should actually check in

23
00:01:25,840 --> 00:01:27,280
Speaker 1: to see if he gets half a game check. I mean,

24
00:01:27,319 --> 00:01:28,800
Speaker 1: I think you have already played, or is it like

25
00:01:28,800 --> 00:01:30,280

26
00:01:30,360 --> 00:01:36,319
Speaker 1: the game. Williams to call the Buffalo Bills. Hey, Terry Pogoula,

27
00:01:36,319 --> 00:01:39,120
Speaker 1: if you're listening to the show, but please let us

28
00:01:39,200 --> 00:01:41,640
Speaker 1: know how you feel about this pro rated game check.

29
00:01:42,920 --> 00:01:44,840
Speaker 1: Put on street clothes at halftime and walked out of

30
00:01:44,840 --> 00:01:48,520
Speaker 1: the building. I can't believe that. I have never I've

31
00:01:48,560 --> 00:01:52,800
Speaker 1: seen people cut during halftime. Kickers were so bad that

32
00:01:52,840 --> 00:01:55,280
Speaker 1: they were cut during halftime. I've never seen a guy

33
00:01:55,440 --> 00:01:58,760
Speaker 1: walk out in the middle of the game time. And

34
00:01:58,800 --> 00:02:00,240
Speaker 1: he said, this was a sort of like a whole

35
00:02:00,240 --> 00:02:02,120
Speaker 1: thing you don't want I don't want to put it.

36
00:02:02,240 --> 00:02:03,680
Speaker 1: I mean, then you shouldn't be on the field anyway.

37
00:02:04,000 --> 00:02:06,120
Speaker 1: I'm assuming this did not go over well in the

38
00:02:06,120 --> 00:02:08,600
Speaker 1: locker room. No it did not. You're kind of walking

39
00:02:08,639 --> 00:02:11,120
Speaker 1: away from you no, no, no, no, no. You got

40
00:02:11,160 --> 00:02:15,360
Speaker 1: some quotes for us, Oh yeah, oh yeah. Tackle Kyle

41
00:02:15,480 --> 00:02:18,800
Speaker 1: Williams says, I think the only thing to say is

42
00:02:19,320 --> 00:02:22,000
Speaker 1: he is where he needs to be right now, and

43
00:02:22,000 --> 00:02:26,240
Speaker 1: then asked where that might be. Williams responded, that's not here,

44
00:02:26,360 --> 00:02:31,040
Speaker 1: point blank and simple. Snap, he said, snapper, I was

45
00:02:32,080 --> 00:02:39,600
Speaker 1: that defensive end. Lorenzo Alexander was equally blunt. He said,

46
00:02:39,680 --> 00:02:43,040
Speaker 1: I don't have nothing to say about Vante. Well, yeah,

47
00:02:43,080 --> 00:02:44,679
Speaker 1: one of these quotes are all that I'm waiting for.

48
00:02:44,800 --> 00:02:50,520
Speaker 1: It gets better. Well let's start with the better, okay,

49
00:02:50,520 --> 00:02:52,560
Speaker 1: so he says, So I will give him a little

50
00:02:52,560 --> 00:02:55,280
Speaker 1: bit more respect than he showed us today as far

51
00:02:55,320 --> 00:02:57,040
Speaker 1: as quitting on us in the middle of the game,

52
00:02:57,400 --> 00:03:00,320
Speaker 1: that's what I want to said. Never seen it ever,

53
00:03:00,480 --> 00:03:07,720
Speaker 1: Pop Warner, high school college pros. Snap again, I've never

54
00:03:07,760 --> 00:03:11,120
Speaker 1: seen Listen. If it's for your health, he didn't. Bless you.

55
00:03:11,240 --> 00:03:13,480
Speaker 1: You want a little Stonewall Jackson update. By the way, yes,

56
00:03:13,600 --> 00:03:17,600
Speaker 1: it never happened before the team tried this new flavor drink,

57
00:03:18,040 --> 00:03:22,040
Speaker 1: the like electrolyte drink. So Jackson like down practically he's

58
00:03:22,040 --> 00:03:24,800
Speaker 1: like cherry. So he downed what was I don't know,

59
00:03:24,840 --> 00:03:27,440
Speaker 1: but he he like a bio steel. I think it's

60
00:03:27,480 --> 00:03:30,440
Speaker 1: called he downed the whole jug before the game and

61
00:03:30,440 --> 00:03:32,200
Speaker 1: I'm sitting. No, no, no no, dud dude, stop, you're gonna

62
00:03:32,200 --> 00:03:33,880
Speaker 1: have to go to the bathroom find that. And he

63
00:03:33,919 --> 00:03:37,200
Speaker 1: didn't go before, don't you know. First period ends and

64
00:03:37,240 --> 00:03:42,520
Speaker 1: he comes flying and all I'm not gonna get too descriptive,

65
00:03:43,000 --> 00:03:44,760
Speaker 1: but let me just tell you know all the pads

66
00:03:44,800 --> 00:03:48,240
Speaker 1: that goalies wear, and you know, I'm just gonna say,

67
00:03:49,000 --> 00:03:52,760
Speaker 1: this was not the easiest thing to do. And you

68
00:03:52,840 --> 00:03:54,480
Speaker 1: get by the way, and youth hockey, you get about

69
00:03:54,480 --> 00:03:58,120
Speaker 1: thirty seconds between periods, all right, and then whatever. Let's

70
00:03:58,120 --> 00:04:00,720
Speaker 1: just say Dad wasn't happy. But we got him on

71
00:04:00,760 --> 00:04:04,000
Speaker 1: the ice and he was like so discombobulated because it

72
00:04:04,080 --> 00:04:05,400
Speaker 1: was like he's like I felt it like a minute

73
00:04:05,400 --> 00:04:06,920
Speaker 1: into the game, and I didn't want to I knew

74
00:04:06,960 --> 00:04:09,280
Speaker 1: I couldn't stop, so I had the whole thing that

75
00:04:09,320 --> 00:04:11,520
Speaker 1: he like, he skates to the wrong net for the

76
00:04:11,520 --> 00:04:13,760
Speaker 1: start of the second period. I'm like, everybody's telling the

77
00:04:13,840 --> 00:04:20,880
Speaker 1: other side more. We had a situation, but it didn't quit,

78
00:04:20,880 --> 00:04:22,960
Speaker 1: and he didn't quit halfway through, by the way, I

79
00:04:23,000 --> 00:04:25,240
Speaker 1: got it. Please you gotta indulge me on this for

80
00:04:25,279 --> 00:04:29,560
Speaker 1: one second. My thirteen year old son, he's with band

81
00:04:29,880 --> 00:04:34,120
Speaker 1: for the Tumaca Raiders high school football team in Pennsylvania.

82
00:04:34,279 --> 00:04:37,040
Speaker 1: Now I bring this team up because I gotta give

83
00:04:37,080 --> 00:04:41,200
Speaker 1: a shout out. They are four no right now. Not

84
00:04:41,440 --> 00:04:46,320
Speaker 1: only are they four no, but the opposing teams have

85
00:04:46,520 --> 00:04:51,040
Speaker 1: not scored one point against the Tumaca Raiders in that game.

86
00:04:51,120 --> 00:04:54,960
Speaker 1: I'm talking scores forty two to nothing, thirty five to nothing,

87
00:04:55,279 --> 00:05:04,640
Speaker 1: forty two to nothing, and then this latest one seventy one.

88
00:05:07,080 --> 00:05:11,320
Speaker 1: Well played, man. So I had to give a shout

89
00:05:11,320 --> 00:05:13,480
Speaker 1: out John, and that that is. Now. Can we give

90
00:05:13,480 --> 00:05:19,400
Speaker 1: a new shout out to Ryan Fitzpatrick? Love it? Love it.

91
00:05:19,880 --> 00:05:22,279
Speaker 1: He's dressing like Conor McGregor. I thought I thought it

92
00:05:22,320 --> 00:05:25,159
Speaker 1: was Connor mcgreggor when I saw him, Like, why is look?

93
00:05:26,600 --> 00:05:27,800
Speaker 1: I mean, he used to be known when he was

94
00:05:27,839 --> 00:05:31,080
Speaker 1: with the Jets. It was like Harvard's Ryan Fitzpatrick. That

95
00:05:31,080 --> 00:05:33,440
Speaker 1: that was what made him. And now it's so Jamis

96
00:05:33,440 --> 00:05:37,919
Speaker 1: Winston gets suspended, he's not playing. Fitzpatrick steps in, he

97
00:05:38,560 --> 00:05:42,279
Speaker 1: chucking touchdown and then he steps up to the podium

98
00:05:42,320 --> 00:05:45,279
Speaker 1: like Hannah McGregor, and I'm wondering. He always had the

99
00:05:45,320 --> 00:05:47,720
Speaker 1: beard and that was a little thing, but the gold

100
00:05:47,839 --> 00:05:52,320
Speaker 1: chains are attitude is new and you just wonder if

101
00:05:52,400 --> 00:05:55,599
Speaker 1: he's not saying you know what, this will be fun

102
00:05:55,600 --> 00:05:59,360
Speaker 1: on Twitter. People will talk about me and us and

103
00:05:59,680 --> 00:06:02,479
Speaker 1: this is the way to get attention besides just throwing

104
00:06:02,520 --> 00:06:07,159
Speaker 1: touchdown passes. And yeah, because and all this is great

105
00:06:07,200 --> 00:06:10,440
Speaker 1: for the NFL. The NFL has fun right now. You know,

106
00:06:10,440 --> 00:06:13,080
Speaker 1: we have players for tiring at halftime and Ryan Fitzpatrick

107
00:06:13,200 --> 00:06:18,000
Speaker 1: and the Jaguars are out playing. The by the way,

108
00:06:18,800 --> 00:06:22,160
Speaker 1: can so much. I put on the game for like

109
00:06:22,360 --> 00:06:24,000
Speaker 1: a minute. I mean really saw like a minute of

110
00:06:24,000 --> 00:06:26,840
Speaker 1: football and the tight end that you mentioned called a

111
00:06:26,880 --> 00:06:30,880
Speaker 1: touchdown pass, that's I said. And I was like, but

112
00:06:31,120 --> 00:06:33,720
Speaker 1: I thought of you over the weekend because like there's

113
00:06:33,720 --> 00:06:36,440
Speaker 1: like touchdowns a Verry and Jenkins and I'm like, there's

114
00:06:36,520 --> 00:06:39,480
Speaker 1: bars said this and the ratings, by the way, now

115
00:06:39,520 --> 00:06:43,320
Speaker 1: let's get big picture business. Ratings up again this week

116
00:06:43,360 --> 00:06:46,640
Speaker 1: over last year. Still down from but in a world

117
00:06:46,760 --> 00:06:51,039
Speaker 1: of if you're steady, you're happy, you're you're up Sunday

118
00:06:51,120 --> 00:06:56,080
Speaker 1: night football, that's a very positive sign for the NFL. Tough,

119
00:06:56,120 --> 00:06:59,040
Speaker 1: tough weeks for the the NFL is dying crowd. Also

120
00:06:59,120 --> 00:07:02,520
Speaker 1: special especial shout out to Sam Bradford, who is quarterback

121
00:07:02,520 --> 00:07:06,640
Speaker 1: in Arizona right now, career earnings over a hundred and

122
00:07:06,640 --> 00:07:11,600
Speaker 1: thirty million dollars, career record thirty four And this guy

123
00:07:11,640 --> 00:07:13,640
Speaker 1: seems too. I saw someone joking on Twitter over the

124
00:07:13,680 --> 00:07:16,800
Speaker 1: weekend that he's a Sports business Hall of Famer Sam

125
00:07:16,880 --> 00:07:19,440
Speaker 1: Padford has figured this game out. Is a right way

126
00:07:19,440 --> 00:07:21,400
Speaker 1: to go that question. There's definitely a right way to

127
00:07:21,400 --> 00:07:23,640
Speaker 1: go about it. Number one draft pick before they changed

128
00:07:23,680 --> 00:07:27,120
Speaker 1: the rookie pay scale is on a twenty million dollar

129
00:07:27,200 --> 00:07:29,920
Speaker 1: contract I think now with the Cardinals, which might be

130
00:07:29,960 --> 00:07:33,200
Speaker 1: his fourth or fifth team, continues to get paid how

131
00:07:33,240 --> 00:07:37,960
Speaker 1: much at one point? Yeah, it was the highest paid quarterback.

132
00:07:38,160 --> 00:07:39,960
Speaker 1: Did it right? To Stafford? Gets it? I bet your

133
00:07:39,960 --> 00:07:42,960
Speaker 1: Stafford's win lost record is positive better? Yeah, I would

134
00:07:42,960 --> 00:07:45,200
Speaker 1: think it's better. And by the way, the poor Arizona

135
00:07:45,240 --> 00:07:47,480
Speaker 1: card and they didn't scool a point. Not only that

136
00:07:47,520 --> 00:07:57,119
Speaker 1: they didn't did they played the Indians. I wasn't talking

137
00:07:57,120 --> 00:08:03,120
Speaker 1: about that too. Oh yeah, like you remember the name

138
00:08:03,120 --> 00:08:05,160
Speaker 1: of the team, but I didn't remember, which is why

139
00:08:05,160 --> 00:08:08,400
Speaker 1: I didn't say that a staff I have no clue

140
00:08:08,400 --> 00:08:13,600
Speaker 1: what it's like the rest of the talking about we

141
00:08:14,120 --> 00:08:18,360
Speaker 1: have to also let's talk about I was gonna I

142
00:08:18,360 --> 00:08:19,680
Speaker 1: was gonna ask if you saw the fight, because you're

143
00:08:19,680 --> 00:08:22,800
Speaker 1: a fight I did not see the fight. I didn't

144
00:08:22,800 --> 00:08:24,040
Speaker 1: want to pay for it. Why don't you see the fight?

145
00:08:24,040 --> 00:08:26,840
Speaker 1: Your fight? Guy? I am, but at the time, I

146
00:08:26,840 --> 00:08:28,400
Speaker 1: just didn't want to pay for the fight. Didn't want

147
00:08:28,400 --> 00:08:30,480
Speaker 1: to pay all right, it wasn't It's not because that

148
00:08:30,560 --> 00:08:33,199
Speaker 1: it's a bad product. I just didn't feel like paying

149
00:08:33,200 --> 00:08:35,400
Speaker 1: for the fight, and I just wanted to the things

150
00:08:35,440 --> 00:08:37,280
Speaker 1: to do with the money, Yeah, the things to do

151
00:08:37,320 --> 00:08:39,680
Speaker 1: with the money. I was trying to put Austin Seferie

152
00:08:39,720 --> 00:08:42,920
Speaker 1: and Jenkins in my fantasy lineup. All right, you saw

153
00:08:42,920 --> 00:08:45,920
Speaker 1: the fight. I did see the fight, and exciting, yeah,

154
00:08:45,920 --> 00:08:48,000
Speaker 1: I was. I think it was more exciting than than

155
00:08:48,160 --> 00:08:52,559
Speaker 1: people who follow boxing were expecting. That's too exciting fights. Yeah,

156
00:08:52,600 --> 00:08:54,120
Speaker 1: I didn't see the first one. The first one seems

157
00:08:54,120 --> 00:08:56,120
Speaker 1: like this seems this seemed like it was a better

158
00:08:56,440 --> 00:08:59,079
Speaker 1: more there's more action in this fight. The logical question

159
00:08:59,240 --> 00:09:01,720
Speaker 1: is there's going to be a third. Here we go,

160
00:09:01,920 --> 00:09:04,079
Speaker 1: We're gonna do it without question. I mean both these

161
00:09:04,080 --> 00:09:06,679
Speaker 1: fights and this one, which was not a draw won

162
00:09:06,760 --> 00:09:09,120
Speaker 1: by Canello, but was I think anyone who watched it

163
00:09:09,160 --> 00:09:10,840
Speaker 1: could say that this could have gone either way. It was.

164
00:09:10,880 --> 00:09:15,200
Speaker 1: It was incredibly balanced and even um perfect scenario in

165
00:09:15,240 --> 00:09:16,960
Speaker 1: my opinion for Oscar de la Hoya, who we had

166
00:09:16,960 --> 00:09:19,760
Speaker 1: on the show last week, for for g G and

167
00:09:19,800 --> 00:09:23,200
Speaker 1: his crew as well. Uh, not having a huge blowout,

168
00:09:23,240 --> 00:09:26,280
Speaker 1: having an incentive to do this again, having a compelling

169
00:09:26,320 --> 00:09:28,960
Speaker 1: product to drop back on in a sport right now

170
00:09:29,000 --> 00:09:31,480
Speaker 1: that is you know, kind of struggling to find those

171
00:09:31,520 --> 00:09:34,840
Speaker 1: a one top tier hundred dollar pay per view stars. Uh,

172
00:09:34,880 --> 00:09:37,000
Speaker 1: it seems like a great result for boxing. Now we

173
00:09:37,040 --> 00:09:38,760
Speaker 1: don't know at time of taping, we don't have the

174
00:09:38,760 --> 00:09:41,040
Speaker 1: pay per view numbers, but Oscar was predicting some pretty

175
00:09:41,040 --> 00:09:43,000
Speaker 1: bold numbers for these guys. I would imagine it did

176
00:09:43,000 --> 00:09:44,480
Speaker 1: fairly well. It was a little I think the price

177
00:09:44,559 --> 00:09:46,640
Speaker 1: is five dollars, so it was a little cheaper than

178
00:09:46,679 --> 00:09:50,520
Speaker 1: what you saw for for Mayweather Pacquio and Mayweather McGregor. Um,

179
00:09:50,600 --> 00:09:53,160
Speaker 1: it won't do numbers that that big. For sure. If

180
00:09:53,200 --> 00:09:55,920
Speaker 1: bar lives within like four dred miles of friends and

181
00:09:55,960 --> 00:09:58,400
Speaker 1: people like me, he could have a few friends over

182
00:09:58,440 --> 00:10:01,640
Speaker 1: and actually maybe split the car together. Yeah exactly, but

183
00:10:01,840 --> 00:10:03,880
Speaker 1: that's not happening. And then some other big news over

184
00:10:03,920 --> 00:10:07,640
Speaker 1: the weekend. Uh, Floyd Mayweather and Manny Packing you know,

185
00:10:07,840 --> 00:10:09,959
Speaker 1: in an Instagram video announced that they were going to

186
00:10:10,040 --> 00:10:14,600
Speaker 1: fight again, possibly December. Is there interest in Mayweather? Think

187
00:10:14,640 --> 00:10:17,120
Speaker 1: you'll be amazed at how many that might even sell

188
00:10:17,160 --> 00:10:20,920
Speaker 1: more than G G. Canello too. I gotta tea. It

189
00:10:21,040 --> 00:10:24,240
Speaker 1: is piqued my interest. I might want to pay for that.

190
00:10:24,760 --> 00:10:27,160
Speaker 1: You'll you'll pay money for the last time these guys fought.

191
00:10:27,960 --> 00:10:35,120
Speaker 1: Either of Manny has fought pretty recently. Floyd has somebody medium.

192
00:10:35,160 --> 00:10:37,200
Speaker 1: I think Manny's probably fought three time, two or three

193
00:10:37,200 --> 00:10:40,199
Speaker 1: times since he since he fought Mayweather, and Maywether fought once,

194
00:10:40,200 --> 00:10:44,760
Speaker 1: which was McGregor off Broadway. I thought Manny was gonna

195
00:10:44,840 --> 00:10:47,560
Speaker 1: be the one person to be able to take Mayweather,

196
00:10:47,840 --> 00:10:51,120
Speaker 1: and I was very disappointed during that fight. Yeah, he's

197
00:10:51,120 --> 00:10:54,440
Speaker 1: aged at a little faster than Mayweather has. Just get

198
00:10:54,440 --> 00:10:57,640
Speaker 1: being McGregor again. Now, that was a good fight. That's

199
00:10:57,640 --> 00:10:59,920
Speaker 1: a that's a fight that Mayweather could lose. That was

200
00:11:02,400 --> 00:11:05,760
Speaker 1: Maywether has spent his entire career banking money by avoiding

201
00:11:05,800 --> 00:11:08,199
Speaker 1: the people that could beat him. And in the last

202
00:11:08,280 --> 00:11:10,040
Speaker 1: fight ever, he's not going to choose a guy that

203
00:11:10,080 --> 00:11:13,199
Speaker 1: could beat him. Yeah, he goes into very safe, very

204
00:11:13,320 --> 00:11:17,040
Speaker 1: very safe. He fights conservatively. Also, people pay for this. Yes,

205
00:11:18,280 --> 00:11:21,040
Speaker 1: not only do people pay for it, they complain afterwards

206
00:11:21,080 --> 00:11:29,959
Speaker 1: every time. And people pay for this. No, what's wrong

207
00:11:30,040 --> 00:11:32,560
Speaker 1: with it? Man? It's great. I don't know if I

208
00:11:32,559 --> 00:11:35,000
Speaker 1: know he's gonna win. Seems like not only you know

209
00:11:35,040 --> 00:11:36,719
Speaker 1: he's gonna win, you know how he's gonna win. He's

210
00:11:36,760 --> 00:11:40,640
Speaker 1: not gonna get going to touch the other guy. But

211
00:11:40,760 --> 00:11:42,560
Speaker 1: I've been's telling me I pretty much know the outcome

212
00:11:42,600 --> 00:11:43,880
Speaker 1: of these guys. I can tell you what's going to

213
00:11:43,920 --> 00:11:46,720
Speaker 1: happen in the next maywhere the packing outfight was gonna

214
00:11:46,800 --> 00:11:49,480
Speaker 1: land like fifteen actual real punches over the course of

215
00:11:49,520 --> 00:11:52,640
Speaker 1: twelve rounds. Maywhether we'll land double that no one will

216
00:11:52,679 --> 00:11:55,320
Speaker 1: get knocked down, and maywhether will win a comfortable decision

217
00:11:55,320 --> 00:12:02,040
Speaker 1: and that will be beco punch that everybody ship ship

218
00:12:02,080 --> 00:12:08,600
Speaker 1: your to Uh. We got to talk about F one

219
00:12:09,280 --> 00:12:12,560
Speaker 1: there for years and it's not just F one. They

220
00:12:12,679 --> 00:12:18,760
Speaker 1: had the sponsorship with tobacco. NASCAR was like booze and

221
00:12:18,760 --> 00:12:22,520
Speaker 1: and tobacco for years, but more were F one now

222
00:12:23,360 --> 00:12:27,319
Speaker 1: because that was manned tobacco products on the side of

223
00:12:27,400 --> 00:12:32,160
Speaker 1: race cars. Now it's turning to tech for sponsorship. This

224
00:12:32,200 --> 00:12:34,440
Speaker 1: seems like it's a perfect and it's a marriage made

225
00:12:34,440 --> 00:12:35,800
Speaker 1: in heaven. Here and let me tell you, bar if

226
00:12:35,840 --> 00:12:38,360
Speaker 1: do you watch sixty minutes? Yes, did you see the

227
00:12:38,360 --> 00:12:41,560
Speaker 1: one on the Media Lab last night? The segment on

228
00:12:41,559 --> 00:12:45,360
Speaker 1: the Media Lab in essence companies ge was one of them.

229
00:12:45,360 --> 00:12:47,719
Speaker 1: I'm trying to remember all the companies that sponsor. That's

230
00:12:48,360 --> 00:12:52,439
Speaker 1: a sponsorship. You pay into this lab and in return

231
00:12:52,559 --> 00:12:55,040
Speaker 1: you get like writer first refusal on any patents that

232
00:12:55,080 --> 00:12:57,760
Speaker 1: these folks come up with. But if you're too commercial

233
00:12:57,760 --> 00:12:59,280
Speaker 1: about it, if you put too much bottom line, the

234
00:12:59,320 --> 00:13:01,920
Speaker 1: director of the lab was like, I've fired companies because

235
00:13:02,000 --> 00:13:03,920
Speaker 1: they thought they were to bottom line, Like, we're not

236
00:13:04,000 --> 00:13:07,479
Speaker 1: the right mix. So you're really just giving them money

237
00:13:07,600 --> 00:13:11,800
Speaker 1: to let these geniuses play around create stuff. And I

238
00:13:11,800 --> 00:13:13,800
Speaker 1: think they have two patents now. This is what this

239
00:13:13,840 --> 00:13:17,080
Speaker 1: seems though. The tech world and F one, these are

240
00:13:17,120 --> 00:13:18,240
Speaker 1: the things that are going to be in the cars

241
00:13:18,240 --> 00:13:20,959
Speaker 1: of tomorrow, and they can use F one as testing

242
00:13:21,040 --> 00:13:23,440
Speaker 1: grounds and then these cars where the automakers can can

243
00:13:23,520 --> 00:13:26,960
Speaker 1: utilize the technology. It seems like a match made in

244
00:13:27,000 --> 00:13:29,560
Speaker 1: heaven and that it makes sense on both sides that

245
00:13:29,640 --> 00:13:32,520
Speaker 1: they should be aligned with one another. And let's also,

246
00:13:32,840 --> 00:13:37,440
Speaker 1: these are the companies that have money, right, companies aren't

247
00:13:37,440 --> 00:13:42,440
Speaker 1: none of the open they have money years ago. There's

248
00:13:42,440 --> 00:13:44,360
Speaker 1: a part of this, this story I'm looking at the

249
00:13:44,440 --> 00:13:48,280
Speaker 1: F one is also considering whether to now accept money

250
00:13:48,320 --> 00:13:51,480
Speaker 1: from alcohol, from fast food, from snack companies. I mean,

251
00:13:51,559 --> 00:13:53,000
Speaker 1: I think a part of this is just they're trying

252
00:13:53,040 --> 00:13:55,280
Speaker 1: to diversify. They're trying to find the companies with money.

253
00:13:55,400 --> 00:13:57,560
Speaker 1: F one teams don't have the sponsorship money that they

254
00:13:57,600 --> 00:13:59,800
Speaker 1: had fifteen years ago. And sure a part of that,

255
00:13:59,840 --> 00:14:03,280
Speaker 1: I think is the tobacco change. Um. But yeah, go

256
00:14:03,280 --> 00:14:04,720
Speaker 1: go to go to where the money is. And right

257
00:14:04,760 --> 00:14:06,600
Speaker 1: now the money's in Silicon Valley. The money is the

258
00:14:06,800 --> 00:14:11,079
Speaker 1: Williams is working with a Chronus Ferrari with Kaspersky Lab. Yeah,

259
00:14:11,120 --> 00:14:15,280
Speaker 1: it just this, this seems like it makes sense. And

260
00:14:15,320 --> 00:14:18,000
Speaker 1: by the way, shout out to F one. You're gonna

261
00:14:18,000 --> 00:14:20,560
Speaker 1: see this also in Indy cars. I'm willing to bet

262
00:14:20,600 --> 00:14:23,480
Speaker 1: in the future the F one cars have what's called

263
00:14:23,480 --> 00:14:26,840
Speaker 1: the halo, so it protects the driver. So have you

264
00:14:26,880 --> 00:14:29,680
Speaker 1: ever seen n F one car? Uh, the F one

265
00:14:29,920 --> 00:14:32,480
Speaker 1: It's there's a bar almost looks like a big roll

266
00:14:32,560 --> 00:14:36,360
Speaker 1: bar that wraps around from the front of where the

267
00:14:36,480 --> 00:14:39,960
Speaker 1: driver is in the cockpit to the back and it

268
00:14:40,040 --> 00:14:42,440
Speaker 1: really will protect the driver if the if the car

269
00:14:42,560 --> 00:14:47,160
Speaker 1: rolls over something like that. Yeah. Now in Indy car

270
00:14:47,280 --> 00:14:51,000
Speaker 1: racing they don't have that, and it you know, when

271
00:14:51,000 --> 00:14:54,920
Speaker 1: a piece of debris flies, it can really hit the

272
00:14:55,600 --> 00:14:58,120
Speaker 1: Take an experiment with some sort of windshield, some sort

273
00:14:58,160 --> 00:15:01,320
Speaker 1: of screen. Weren't they talking about, Well, well that was

274
00:15:01,680 --> 00:15:04,520
Speaker 1: part of the Halo part. The Halo part. So I'm

275
00:15:04,560 --> 00:15:07,960
Speaker 1: hoping that open wheel race. That's scary stuff. It is

276
00:15:08,320 --> 00:15:11,320
Speaker 1: so cross your fingers. I hope they like you going

277
00:15:11,320 --> 00:15:15,040
Speaker 1: down the highway in your bulick. What kind of car

278
00:15:15,080 --> 00:15:17,440
Speaker 1: you dry? I don't even a bar I have a

279
00:15:17,520 --> 00:15:20,280
Speaker 1: prious c Thank you. I didn't see that coming. Wow,

280
00:15:20,480 --> 00:15:27,120
Speaker 1: I didn't. Sorry, David and Michael Barr. Isn't that a

281
00:15:27,880 --> 00:15:31,680
Speaker 1: like a clean passive Yes? Yeah, yes? Do you get

282
00:15:31,680 --> 00:15:34,960
Speaker 1: I know in California if you buy electric car, that's

283
00:15:35,000 --> 00:15:36,480
Speaker 1: even if you have one person, you can use the

284
00:15:36,560 --> 00:15:38,240
Speaker 1: h O V lanes, which is a big advantage. Do

285
00:15:38,280 --> 00:15:40,000
Speaker 1: you get to use h OV with like one person?

286
00:15:40,280 --> 00:15:42,200
Speaker 1: Not in New York. Not in New York. No, you're

287
00:15:42,240 --> 00:15:44,680
Speaker 1: supposed to if it's a clean passive vehicle absolutely in

288
00:15:44,720 --> 00:15:47,320
Speaker 1: New York. Yeah, we just cut it. We just cut

289
00:15:47,320 --> 00:15:51,040
Speaker 1: his commute by an hour. Are you serious? Mr bar

290
00:15:51,240 --> 00:15:53,720
Speaker 1: If you have a hybrid or a clean pass vehicle,

291
00:15:53,840 --> 00:15:55,760
Speaker 1: you are allowed to ride the h V lane no

292
00:15:55,760 --> 00:15:57,480
Speaker 1: matter how many no matter how many people are. If

293
00:15:57,520 --> 00:16:00,280
Speaker 1: you're by yourself, there you go. You can put them.

294
00:16:00,680 --> 00:16:02,680
Speaker 1: Did you not know this when you bought Well, I

295
00:16:02,720 --> 00:16:04,920
Speaker 1: didn't know that the h OV lane was Well, there's

296
00:16:04,920 --> 00:16:07,640
Speaker 1: so many things in New York that you know. I

297
00:16:07,680 --> 00:16:10,640
Speaker 1: didn't know. It doesn't matter at for him when you commute, Well,

298
00:16:10,840 --> 00:16:14,480
Speaker 1: that's true, that's true. But if you eight or something,

299
00:16:14,520 --> 00:16:17,480
Speaker 1: it matter. You never Yeah, you never know anyway. Hey,
