00:00:07
Speaker
Do you want a piece of shit in your life? Do you want a piece of shit in your life?
00:00:16
Speaker

00:00:38
Speaker
Louis i'm at an extended stay at uh Maryland Heights and it is Dude, so it's the the rate is pretty is is really good. It's like all in less than $60 a night. So I guess I'm getting what I paid for. $60? Yeah, so if the connection's bad.
00:01:00
Speaker
So you're using their internet. It's a $60 hotel. Fuck, bro. hotel fuck bro But i's say it's extended stay. So it's like for people that are going to be staying for like a month. So they get if you if you're staying over a week, you get like a better rate.
00:01:16
Speaker
Would have been like 80, bro. So what kind of clients are walking around there, dude? Dude, so I pulled up. So there's two of these. I guess they're like sister hotels. So I booked the one down the street, Lachlan.
00:01:29
Speaker
And I pulled up and it was fucking a scene straight out of Boys in the Hood. Like there were like dudes out on the out on the balcony drinking 40s and yelling at each other and shit. So i was like, and then I, so I roll inside and then this dude,
00:01:47
Speaker
This middle-aged blonde dude is at the front desk. He's in the back like screaming at somebody, and then he walks up to the front desk. He's wearing cowboy boots with like pants tucked inside the boots, which is like you know makes you look crazy, right? If if you go pants inside. yeah And they're like red in color, and he's just like...
00:02:05
Speaker
He's like, ba i i that that's hey I got no idea what he was saying. And I'm like, what? I'm not here to check in. I finally figured out what he's saying. He's like, your room had a leak, so I put you in the place
Living in a Budget Hotel
00:02:16
Speaker
down the road. It's like a mile down the road.
00:02:19
Speaker
So I'm like, kind of like, oh, good. Maybe that's better. So I rolled down here and it's a little better, but the dude working the front desk is, is a elderly man who, who not too familiar with the system.
00:02:31
Speaker
So it took, took a while to check in. So I think other people staying here look maybe like construction workers, like people may be on a longterm job site thing. So they put them up here.
00:02:42
Speaker
they don't break the bank. And then I think people might be using this as a, uh, like a place to live because it's got like a kitchen.
00:02:52
Speaker
I thought this might save me money because was like a kitchen. So i was like, oh, that's good. i don't go out to eat all the time. What percentage do you suspect were recently evicted?
00:03:05
Speaker
Because Trump, you got to you gotta make this hotel about Trump. No, evicted from their, their i know long-term apartment. a I haven't got a feel for the clientele, but i'm just it's got it's like a studio apartment is basically what I'm in. And um I wonder if people are like, oh, I'm going to live there.
00:03:24
Speaker
Maybe the month-long rate is cheaper than like an apartment and they don't have to pay utilities.
Hotel Humor and Low Expectations
00:03:30
Speaker
So I'm like, this is like a place where people post up.
00:03:35
Speaker
But it's fine. like The room is fine, dude. How much jizz on that headboard that I'm looking at? Nobody's getting laid in this place, dude. Nobody's celebrating in here, man. It's so funny. $60. I don't even know where I could get a $60 hotel in Denver.
00:03:54
Speaker
Maybe impossible. Maybe La Quinta or something like that. Like in the hood, yeah. are you in a What part of town are you in? it's not ah I'm not in a hood part of town. it's just like ah it's i'm actually I'm literally like...
00:04:09
Speaker
a quarter mile at most from from the old my old stomping grounds, the the Funny Bone. it's just It's this place called Westport and there's like Westport Plaza. And it you know there's a lot there's actually a lot of people we try I'm trying to do business with, like some some ah industrial, like you know people that kitchen and flooring, places like that are around here.
00:04:33
Speaker
So, but it's not a straight up hood. Does it hurt your feelings when I'm trashing your hotel?
00:04:42
Speaker
not at all. Not at all. I almost am like, and I'm kind of going like, what the fuck did do you expect to myself? I'm like, what do you think, dude? Do you think there's like the biggest hidden gem in the history of of lodging for 55 bucks that I was going to get like a ah fucking Ritz Carlton or something?
00:05:05
Speaker
It's fine, dude. like You can look around. It's fine. but It looks like some pleather. Some pleather on that headboard. But your partners can't open up a room in the house for a week? Come on now.
00:05:19
Speaker
Y'all falling apart? Y'all conversing still and partnering well?
00:05:25
Speaker
I didn't even talk to them about it. I don't think they'd care if I stayed at the other place. was a little nicer. I'm just... You know, I'm conscious of the business too, as an owner. And yeah, don't know. But their house, they don't have a room at their house, dude. No?
00:05:40
Speaker
No. I even ask, but I don't know if I want to do that. I mean, I'd probably kick it with Dave. I don't know if Dave has a my partner. I don't know if he has a room. he He's bought a new house. He probably has a room, but I'm not trying to get up in there.
00:05:53
Speaker
Yeah, okay. I'll give everybody their privacy. We'll see what happens with the remodel. and This is fine. I can kick it here if I had to. like if if Let's say that remodel takes six months and when I come up here, I need a place.
00:06:09
Speaker
This would be fine.
Business Updates and Challenges
00:06:10
Speaker
I probably wouldn't go back to the other one down the street. It's got interesting feel too. like When you walk in, my front desk, for example, has like plexiglass around around the front desk.
00:06:21
Speaker
Okay. Yeah. That's just two miles away? A mile. Just a mile. This one does too. Okay. This one has plexiglass. Shit gets real.
00:06:33
Speaker
Well, ah deadbolt that motherfucker. Yeah, I mean, i don't know if there's people here what, but it's fine, dude. i don't really care. you're coming from Costa Rica. It's probably the Hilton, bro.
00:06:52
Speaker
Yeah. It's nicer than my home. I don't know, just the it's just the experience. like Even the place I was just at, the Best Western, which which it was pretty nice, but it's it's not like a name where you're like, ooh, man, going upscale, right?
00:07:08
Speaker
But you walk in, there's a nice lobby, the front desk is all like, how are you? And that kind of shit. yeah You walk in here, And there's no one around. There's one dude that's like, there's a dude back there.
00:07:21
Speaker
There's a dude back there. Like, and I'm like, yeah, okay. And then this old dude walks out is just like lost. the news And you just get in it. And then there's a plexiglass. I mean, the part of it is like, it's almost like an apartment apartment complex. So it seems like they run it more like that than a hotel.
00:07:39
Speaker
It doesn't have that workout room though, which got electrical on the treadmill. Okay then, okay. like That's funny.
00:07:50
Speaker
Well, I wouldn't lead with where you're staying when you're ah trying to make a sale. I'd get tons of mileage out of this, dude. You would? Okay.
00:08:02
Speaker
Feeling sorry for you or what? No, I just talk shit about it. And... I don't know, dude, the sales to just keep keep racking up.
00:08:13
Speaker
It's pretty crazy. We got our container in and like we've been fucking pumping ever since. That's amazing. And like you'll look back on this and be like, remember when I was at, ah what's it called?
00:08:27
Speaker
Extended Stay. What's the brand? That's it. It's called Extended Stay America. Stay a while. Sweets. Talking about sweets, bro.
00:08:39
Speaker
Anything with America in it is going to be... I mean, this is a chain. I think this is a chain. It's it's like Motel 6 or... ah Yeah, yeah.
00:08:51
Speaker
So how much wood you clearing through?
00:08:58
Speaker
I mean, I don't know. Like, we probably... we prev I don't know how to answer that. how do How do you want me to answer that, bro? Like in square footage, board feet, number of tables?
00:09:10
Speaker
Wow. Volume of shipment. 10% of the shipment. Yeah, but maybe. I don't know if it went that quick. I mean, that thing landed on last Wednesday. So...
00:09:21
Speaker
ah But we're so so we're starting to book bigger projects. So like we, you know, we saw we sold this morning. The table was 12 feet long. It's big ass fucking table.
00:09:32
Speaker
We had some stuff in Colorado that might might be big, big pieces. People are coming in and which is interesting, but a lot of people are doing like kitchen islands and not looking for countertops. And those end up being like a lot of wood.
00:09:45
Speaker
So like the projects and the cost and the price are are bigger. So I think we probably learned, maybe we're learning or maybe we're just getting lucky or maybe it's trending. I don't know what, but like we can get more margin out of the container and we and we ordered better, a little better this time. All right.
00:10:05
Speaker
And I think people are inside. and like, this is probably a good time to sell furniture right now. Like this time a year. Because they're looking around their house and going, ugh.
00:10:15
Speaker
Right. and they yeah Holidays are done. They're kind of going, what are we doing? They're they're like thinking about spring, and and they're sitting in their house looking at shit. so I think I wouldn't be surprised if you talk to a bunch of people like us or um furniture you know furniture people if they were like, yeah, January is a good month.
Sales Cycles and Personal Growth
00:10:37
Speaker
I hope i hope it's the the trend is that we're our internet presence picking up.
00:10:42
Speaker
people word of mouth is picking up, our shit is awesome. and But it could also be a little bit of like, there'll probably be some seasonal, like July, people are like, I don't fucking care about my dining table. I'm outside trying to get some.
00:10:56
Speaker
Are you clicking a pen? Are you slapping your laptop or some shit? Because just want to remind you, other people have to listen to this. you You keep asking me these questions, dude. I'm not trying to make it about me, bro. No, no, no, no. I'm saying, are you fucking slapping your laptop, clicking a pen, or doing some other noise?
00:11:17
Speaker
Oh, just do work, dude. Right now, wait, wait. I'm not touching anything. Is there a noise? No.
00:11:27
Speaker
There's a delay. There's a delay with your jank-ass internet, but there's no noise. But anyway, all right, well, that's great. Wildwood's going good, staring at his phone during a ah recording of what I would consider a professional podcast, and now he's said chiming right into the mic.
00:11:47
Speaker
It never ends. that that's That's on Apple. Mm-hmm. I love like, you ever are you a type of guy that busts out that uses we when you when you mean you or they?
00:12:04
Speaker
Not really. Like Lance, we should. Lance, we should. Meaning Matt, you should do that. Not really. Do I? maybe maybe you're ah Maybe you're making fun of me covertly.
00:12:17
Speaker
No, no, it's not you. i just okay There's a little ah little thing that... Oh, I see. Let me, let me, ah let me yeah this is partner drama where one partner goes, we should do this, which means you should just giving somebody else more responsibilities.
00:12:35
Speaker
I know that kind of guy. I'll headbutt that motherfucker. You know, that's right. Yeah. I don't know. That's just part of working together though.
00:12:50
Speaker
Hmm, Well, it's also part of maybe like being used to a role of of directing. ah Telling people what to do. Leadership.
00:13:02
Speaker
Somebody's more leadership oriented and somebody's order taker. They think. And then me just kind of getting in the spot where I'm, and even if it's like a logical thing where I'm just like, my immediate reaction is pushback and and just go, I'm not doing that.
00:13:21
Speaker
Here's what I might suggest is we need to work together to clarify what are just ideas and what are marching orders. That's what I would ask.
00:13:34
Speaker
I don't care. I'm just, I'm just doing what i what I'm going to do when the thing's popping way ahead of forecast and, uh, you know, I'm delivering what we thought this where they thought this business, where I thought it could go.
00:13:50
Speaker
And that's all we can do. I think so, man. That's all we can do, bro. Yeah. I'm setting an extended stay. Taking one for the team.
00:14:03
Speaker
i think it's great. Look, dude, if nothing else, what a series of weird memories. Shooting off to St. Louis, ah doing all these kind of weird things, going into random stores and ah businesses, staying at Extended Stay where the 40s be flowing.
00:14:22
Speaker
I mean, it's great. I know. It is weird. Going to fucking interior design events. and And then, it i don't know.
00:14:36
Speaker
That's it. That's where I'm at. What else is going on? i got i'm and I need this show to be a ah little breather from from Wildwood Edges today. Things are going well.
00:14:47
Speaker
i will I'll close that segment of the show with the, I'm realizing a little bit of being in a sales cycle is like, ah in a way, a bit like ah a drug addiction or something where like it's insatiable, and insatiable where like you'd never feel comfortable.
00:15:06
Speaker
And like we just had the best for if if you extrapolated the the last four or five days, like we're done. but orre We're like crushing it, like financially, individually, everything. Right. and With with I would say not like any insane effort or like insane. um you know, some unique thing we found.
00:15:27
Speaker
Like I would say I'm working, I was talking to one of my partners the other day, like I'm working, let's say 15 hour days, but I'm also have fixed 15 hours of flexibility, but I'm taking customer calls like seven days a week, every all fucking day and night. Right.
00:15:44
Speaker
But I could do it from anywhere and whatever. I'm not complaining. But anyways, so I, when I say it's, it's nothing like amazing there, there is that, but, Anyways, we have that, but I know that like we have the best four days ever, and I'm still like, shit, now what?
00:15:58
Speaker
So I got to figure that out. You're saying if those four days were replicated through the whole calendar year, you guys would be in the money? Yeah, I mean, we are. It's funny. We're we're not that far into it it's It's cash flowing, at least from like a monthly burn perspective, covering everything.
00:16:18
Speaker
some of what I need. And so that, but yeah, no, it wouldn't be, it would be like a ah pretty, pretty big success. But you'd have to hire someone cause that would be impossible for you.
00:16:29
Speaker
I don't know. What do you mean? Like another salesperson or someone to take the, someone to take some customer customers off your hands and close the deal. That's what's funny is like, I think we can probably maintain where we're at now fit with,
00:16:44
Speaker
Another one of my partners probably come on, but with that body and maybe some machinery, like some automated sanding, stuff like that through like CNC machines, I think we get pretty far.
00:16:56
Speaker
okay so But I just want to point out the good and bad of it is like, I don't know. I'm now I'm wondering if they'll ever if you ever get to a point where you're like, oh,
00:17:08
Speaker
I mean, this is like true of any, you hear this with athletes, with anything where you're like, aye I'm pretty comfortable now. Things are fine and i'm not I don't need to worry about it. I just need to let it run, you know.
00:17:21
Speaker
Yeah, it'll be, i don't know if you guys are there yet financially where you could kind of, you know, what you need to sell to meet certain criteria. It's like when when do you believe it, you know?
00:17:33
Speaker
That's what I mean. Right. I think couple years. I'm just hoping you have a vision for my son to get a college
Investment Anecdotes and Strategies
00:17:40
Speaker
internship there. Fuck yeah, dude. You've been thinking about that? You've been thinking about that? If we get if we get like a, he could be like a ringer. we get like a men's league going, I bring him in. Just fucking destroying people.
00:17:54
Speaker
That's funny. Yeah. Yeah, dude. Well, you could have taken any all of your 401k money and put it into gold, and you wouldn't have to do this bullshit.
00:18:06
Speaker
did you Are you on that? Were you on that? i well I wish I was, but like precious metals long-term just underperform stocks. Dude, I had a conversation with my neighbor probably. Don't don't do that, dude. Don't stay smart. I had a conversation my neighbor talking about investments maybe like I mean, I was still, it was pre-separation, pre-moving.
00:18:31
Speaker
So it had to be at least three or four years ago. But I was like, I don't remember why, but I we i was like, I think i um ah when this happens, gold seems to pop. And I put not enough money, let's just say like a thousand bucks in some gold fund or something.
00:18:45
Speaker
I don't know where it's at, too bad i too bad I wasn't like, I fucking believe in this all in. I don't know. Is it that kind of like wealth creation what's happening with gold or is it like a you know it's a rare no it's ah just ah a rare jump for silver and i mean silver's up 200 something percent gold is doubled in matter of a year it's just kind of rare okay and there's that doesn't happen you're not talking about that dramatically very often
00:19:21
Speaker
No, I mean, that's, yeah I don't know what that is. That's some pandemic type craziness. Some crypto bullshit. k Crypto has been flat. I love it.
00:19:33
Speaker
I love seeing other things rocket and investors get all excited about it and crypto just sit there like the little pussy it is. You hate crypto. I hate I think it's so dumb.
00:19:46
Speaker
Dude, you'll like this. One of the stalwarts, J&J is fucking popping, bro. Popping. Are they? And they're paying dividends too? Pretty good dividends?
00:19:59
Speaker
Paying dividends? there when i When I got married, my my uncle was, ah I think he was a chief patent officer at Johnson & Johnson. And he he passed away very young. he got yeah He had a brain tumor. But his wife, my aunt,
00:20:14
Speaker
She she gave I think she gave us like 20 years of 20 shares Johnson and Johnson as a wedding gift. Sweet gift. Right. But at the time it was like 50 bucks a share.
00:20:26
Speaker
And now it's at 220 or 230. Now, of course, that's over the course of 20 years. But in the last like year, it's it just keeps paying dividends. Paid a lot of dividends, yeah.
00:20:39
Speaker
Well, people are cycling out of, I think, the growth stocks into the value stocks. Like consistent returns, nothing too sketchy. oh Something like that.
00:20:52
Speaker
They had for years, they've been like battling this talcum powder cancer-causing lawsuits all over the place. And I wonder if they're if they're like coming out of that and And you know, as a shareholder, it's just like, fuck them.
00:21:08
Speaker
Fuck them. You beat me to that joke. It's because of my, I can only beat you it because my wifi sucks. So you had to wait for me to like, it's like I'm live from Baghdad when they used to do
Fitness, Politics, and Weather
00:21:21
Speaker
the war. That's so bad.
00:21:23
Speaker
This might be worse than my Costa Rica connection. I can hear you real time. But then when I say something, it's it looks like it takes like eight seconds.
00:21:35
Speaker
That's not that.
00:21:39
Speaker
What's going on with you? What's going on with you, Lance? Enough about me and St. Louis and this horse shit. what ah what's What's new with you? People will be happy to know I did sprints today while they were working. That makes people feel good, knowing that I'm doing whatever the fuck I want.
00:21:58
Speaker
I'm going to wait. If it seems like I'm waiting, it's cause i'm because of the lay. don't want to cut you off. So if it seem if I'm awkwardly slow on my responses, I'm waiting. How many sprints and and what distance?
00:22:12
Speaker
I do 550s, 10 hundreds. What the fuck? 550s, 10. That's a lot. It's just nice to be on top. It's nice to be winning.
00:22:24
Speaker
It's nice to stop caring about other people's feelings.
00:22:30
Speaker
Are you trying to detach finally? Are you finally detaching from... I'd be so happy for you, dude.
00:22:39
Speaker
It's not going to happen. It's not to happen. that That last shooting, if if that doesn't pull you in, then you are MAGA.
00:22:53
Speaker
But I hope i hope that... I mean, I don't know what pulls you in. I don't know. Like, again, I'm still like, well, i still just got to grind on with what I'm doing. Well, reading, reading about it.
00:23:04
Speaker
Yeah. I just, I mean, there's enough video of it. I'm like, okay, yeah, let's just stop shooting people. Right. Like it's like, just stop shooting people, you know?
00:23:15
Speaker
But I think it'll have a, I think it'll have a, unfortunately, but I think it'll probably have a positive impact. Cause I think even most people have a limit, you know, you might be like, well, everyone should be here legally and i'd like to get an all criminal whatever all that chip but at some point most people are like it doesn't make sense to to be shooting people and then when you watch some of the people the people talk about it they look kind of crazy because it's so obvious that it wasn't like a violent you know there it was it's just so obvious that somebody fucked up and shot someone and like it's there's i don't like it's it's just weird the response
00:23:56
Speaker
I don't even think Trump's response is like as crazy as some of the people underneath him. Yeah, I don't know. They're all out of their mind. I can't talk about it. But how much snow did you guys get? Let's switch. Let's switch topics right now. um maybe Maybe nine inches, something like that.
00:24:15
Speaker
Ooh, nine inches of snow.
00:24:19
Speaker
Guess how I measured it, bro. m I bet you. i bet you're tough like that. Did you watch the football games, buddy?
00:24:32
Speaker
Dude, Sunday was fucking like city was shut down hard here. And i I kind of always joke about it. think It was like a southern city when it comes to snow, people freak out. But it was so fucking cold. it I think it was minus 15 with a windshield of minus 20 or 30 or some shit. And then there was all that snow. So it was there was good reason for it to shut down.
00:24:58
Speaker
So, I mean, I was in my hotel room for a while, like from so Saturday afternoon after closing some sales and then through um like through Monday morning. So I did watch the games a little bit. Wow.
00:25:13
Speaker
Dude, I was way more interested, though, in watching the X Games and the snowboard competitions. And that was pretty dope. Oh, God. But did the Best Western boiler hold up?
00:25:27
Speaker
Was it cold in there? No, it was fine. It was fine. I have one of my partners and a few other people i talked to had like got leaks and shit. I don't know if it's because of the pipes but or or the snow on the roof or what, but there were leaks. I'm sure other parts the country were like as you move south and you start to get like it was a little warmer than you get like all the ice issues and shit like that.
00:25:53
Speaker
Yeah. I wonder what a bandwidth extended stay America's for running with dude. It's pretty great.
00:26:05
Speaker
Let me see if they have, they literally act like there's no one else doing this. They're literally, when you sign in, they advertise if you want to pay for a better internet.
00:26:17
Speaker
I see. that I wonder this will come out though. Like i actually don't hear you that bad.
00:26:26
Speaker
Yeah, I don't know. Maybe. Maybe it'd be fine.
Media Coverage and Sports Commentary
00:26:30
Speaker
ah So, wait, I was curious about the weather. You watched a little football, but, oh, I was more curious about the X Games. That sounds stupid to me. But I don't want even want to hear what comes out of your mouth about the X Games. Not one fucking thing. Well, let's move on to what's even more ridiculous and awesome.
00:26:48
Speaker
I was texting you about it. but the fucking dude Alex free soloed a building. did you Did you watch any of that or see any highlights or anything or are you just too busy Googling what sucks about the world?
00:27:02
Speaker
I saw some highlights. I saw an SNL skit of making fun of him. I thought that was funny. Why, because he's so robotic or what? Yeah, exactly.
00:27:13
Speaker
I got to Google that. He's lined up though. If you look at the the movie free soloing from like 2017, where he's just starting to hang out with this girl and now he's got kids, but now he's, he's equally as awkward. It's a little too like, Hey, how are you?
00:27:28
Speaker
Like raving and shit. Like it's, it's weird, but I mean, not what do you expect? Like, right. He's, it'd be weird if he was just like the most well socially adjusted dude. And he's like, yeah, I'm still going to go free solo building in an hour and a half.
00:27:43
Speaker
Fuck it.
00:27:45
Speaker
It was a dream of his, he said in the promo. It's been his dream for a long time. I thought it was i thought it was amazing. And maybe stupid, but I'll... And probably, i bet you there's climbers out there that like, it's it's that's like the easiest thing ever because it's the same move over and over again. It's not that big of a deal, but the whole thing is just ridiculous. Because I don't think I could do three pull-ups.
00:28:12
Speaker
And so the idea, like, climbing the whole building from an exercise and like sort of what your body can put up with seems ridiculous. Doing a back workout for an hour and 45 minutes with your life on the line is crazy. He's in superior shape. I wonder, I didn't learn anything about it, but thanks i won I wonder if the risk was sort of ah he's as he got so high up the weather or something like that.
00:28:42
Speaker
Wind. He was, he was like talking about how windy it was, but actually at the top, I think if he would have fell, I don't know if he would have died because the, the, the building was kind of like tiered.
00:28:53
Speaker
And so there were like floors. I feel like after a certain point, if he'd fall, it would have been like 25, 30 feet onto a balcony or something like that. but So I, you know, in that way, kind of pussy.
00:29:07
Speaker
Probably not for him. But what'd you think, uh, What'd you think of the commentary or the ah and the broadcast around it? They had like a team. so So annoying.
00:29:21
Speaker
Was it? i Yeah, I shouldn't say it. that They were fine, but because because it's just it was it was it was annoying. I came in at the end and they were just, yeah, I came at the end and it was pretty cheese.
00:29:36
Speaker
Pretty fucking dumb. so It had the, yeah, it had like It's not really like something that I don't even like, what are they going to talk about? This guy's climbing up a building. So they're trying to fill in some shit and make and like make it produced thing because they have to, but it's not really set up for that.
00:29:56
Speaker
But I don't I have ah I've been having a real problem with like just announcing in general lately because I actually, ah you know, I'm not not really watching shit in English, so I'm not really listening to anything. But then when I listen to like the NFL, like because when I went to my parents house, I watched some NFL, which I don't watch that much, really. I'm listening to like Chris Collinsworth or or now like Tom Brady.
00:30:17
Speaker
And I'm just like, shut up. Or ah the quarterback that was a Dallas Cowboys quarterback. And they're all fine. I think people probably like them. Troy. I'm just like, ah.
00:30:29
Speaker
Troy, no. Well, Troy, yeah. He's – no, there's another guy. He's like and ah yeah a younger dude that was Cowboys quarterback for a while. It's – shit, drawing a blank. know what I'm talking about?
00:30:43
Speaker
Troy's been around forever as an announcer. Yeah, fuck. I don't remember his name. I think he's fine. I think a lot of people think he's like football wise sound and makes he's fine. It's just these guys are driving crazy.
00:30:57
Speaker
This whole thing. I like how the NFL is just the most intriguing thing ever. And all the coaches are mad scientists and it's all this great. It's just like shut up.
00:31:08
Speaker
I don't think you fucking can't even listen to Tom Brady is annoying. So I will say I should all these people, maybe maybe the people for the yeah Maybe the people for the ah free solo, maybe they weren't as annoying. Maybe it's just a state in my life, bro.
00:31:24
Speaker
Maybe it's just a state my life. And then the snowboard announcers, which are a little too like, you know, yeah, bro. But they're they're not even like legit yeah, bro. They're more like fabricated yeah, bro.
00:31:41
Speaker
Like I don't even know ever snowboarded.
00:31:45
Speaker
I shouldn't say that because I think Todd Richards was is one of the announcers, and he was like rolling around Vail back when I used to like maybe a few years before. He was rolling around Colorado back when we were snowboarding at like Copper and Vail ba on stuff.
00:32:00
Speaker
Remember him? Remember Todd Richards, bro?
00:32:04
Speaker
Nope.
