1
00:00:00.195 --> 00:00:01.485
This is, is off track.
2
00:00:03.285 --> 00:00:05.125
Question for you. How often do you guys have
3
00:00:05.125 --> 00:00:07.845
to like clean out your AirPod cases from like dirt
4
00:00:07.865 --> 00:00:09.085
and ear wax and stuff?
5
00:00:09.275 --> 00:00:11.485
Well, I don't, I don't own them long
6
00:00:11.485 --> 00:00:12.645
enough to need to clean 'em.
7
00:00:12.985 --> 00:00:16.765
So that's not really a problem that I have. Are you, are you
8
00:00:16.765 --> 00:00:19.205
Losing them or are you just like constantly in need
9
00:00:19.205 --> 00:00:20.365
of like the new model?
10
00:00:20.785 --> 00:00:21.925
No, I don't, I don't give a,
11
00:00:22.205 --> 00:00:23.325
I actually don't like 'em that much.
12
00:00:23.685 --> 00:00:25.965
I like their convenience. I hate how they look.
13
00:00:26.165 --> 00:00:28.605
I just, I lose them temporarily and then find them again.
14
00:00:28.605 --> 00:00:31.565
But by that point, Amazon has delivered them three hours
15
00:00:31.565 --> 00:00:33.685
later from when I ordered them. Got it. And so it's like,
16
00:00:34.195 --> 00:00:35.685
Yeah, that's a Becky move.
17
00:00:35.775 --> 00:00:39.405
Becky has like several pairs. It's either that or
18
00:00:39.405 --> 00:00:40.405
She, well I didn't, I didn't spill
19
00:00:40.405 --> 00:00:41.405
them.
.
20
00:00:41.645 --> 00:00:43.845
No. Yeah, no, this she does, she doesn't spill these.
21
00:00:44.345 --> 00:00:46.645
She either loses them or claims they don't work
22
00:00:46.705 --> 00:00:47.725
and then gets new ones.
23
00:00:47.725 --> 00:00:50.485
And then I see her using the old ones like in a different
24
00:00:50.485 --> 00:00:53.845
application somewhere and ah, just doesn't, I don't know,
25
00:00:53.845 --> 00:00:56.685
something there didn't quite add up. Um,
26
00:00:57.125 --> 00:00:59.725
I, uh, I, I know people were kind of wondering about
27
00:00:59.725 --> 00:01:00.765
how waterproof they are.
28
00:01:01.125 --> 00:01:02.845
I have done my own research on this.
29
00:01:02.905 --> 00:01:04.645
You can run 'em through the laundry three times
30
00:01:04.785 --> 00:01:06.285
before they just completely stop
31
00:01:06.285 --> 00:01:08.045
working.
, I've definitely done
32
00:01:08.045 --> 00:01:09.965
After the second time they get a little spotty.
33
00:01:10.485 --> 00:01:12.645
Hmm. Yeah. Third time's the charm.
34
00:01:12.905 --> 00:01:14.645
So anyways, I just got some new AirPods.
35
00:01:15.105 --> 00:01:16.325
So is that how you clean
36
00:01:16.325 --> 00:01:17.325
them?
,
,
37
00:01:19.975 --> 00:01:22.245
apple, AirPods good for exactly three cleans.
38
00:01:22.875 --> 00:01:24.765
It's funny you say you don't really like them otherwise.
39
00:01:25.045 --> 00:01:26.245
'cause you're right, like the convenience
40
00:01:26.245 --> 00:01:29.405
of them is just undeniable and like apple winds
41
00:01:29.405 --> 00:01:30.685
because they just make it so that there's,
42
00:01:30.705 --> 00:01:32.645
But you look like such a
Use them.
43
00:01:32.755 --> 00:01:35.845
Dude, I'll never forget the first time they came out
44
00:01:35.845 --> 00:01:37.565
with like the, the original plugin
45
00:01:37.565 --> 00:01:38.765
Ones, the long ones, right?
46
00:01:38.895 --> 00:01:40.005
Uhhuh, the long court.
47
00:01:40.065 --> 00:01:41.885
And like you would walk around a city
48
00:01:42.065 --> 00:01:44.965
and you would just see like in that first month,
49
00:01:45.105 --> 00:01:47.605
two months when they came out, everybody that had them.
50
00:01:47.605 --> 00:01:49.205
You like, what a, like that guy,
51
00:01:49.235 --> 00:01:52.365
that guy just bugs me fundamentally.
52
00:01:52.525 --> 00:01:54.325
I was like, I hate those things. I'm never getting those
53
00:01:54.325 --> 00:01:55.325
Things.
54
00:01:55.325 --> 00:01:56.845
Well now, now it's the same with now it's like the over year
55
00:01:56.875 --> 00:01:59.165
ones or the douchey ones. Yeah. Yeah. Like
56
00:01:59.905 --> 00:02:00.925
The beats
That have
57
00:02:00.925 --> 00:02:02.245
become the apples don't, you don't need those.
58
00:02:02.845 --> 00:02:05.645
I don't mind those to be honest. Because,
59
00:02:05.645 --> 00:02:08.925
Because you're a
That's why, that's mainly why.
60
00:02:09.225 --> 00:02:10.805
No, because I feel like with these ones,
61
00:02:11.005 --> 00:02:13.405
'cause they're so white and they're so visible
62
00:02:13.625 --> 00:02:16.085
and obvious that it was like people were trying
63
00:02:16.145 --> 00:02:17.525
to wear them just to wear them.
64
00:02:17.775 --> 00:02:20.445
Those could be like easily mistaken for any headphones.
65
00:02:20.665 --> 00:02:22.205
The over the, the max ones
66
00:02:22.205 --> 00:02:23.125
or whatever, they just kind of
67
00:02:23.125 --> 00:02:24.165
look like over the year headphones.
68
00:02:24.165 --> 00:02:26.285
Which, if that's your thing, it's not my thing nine times
69
00:02:26.285 --> 00:02:28.325
outta 10, but like whatever.
70
00:02:28.525 --> 00:02:30.085
I get it. They're also convenient
71
00:02:30.105 --> 00:02:31.925
and also work good and yeah.
72
00:02:32.045 --> 00:02:33.485
I don't know those ones, I'm not as against,
73
00:02:33.845 --> 00:02:35.525
I, I still don't think there's a better
74
00:02:35.525 --> 00:02:36.605
headphone out there.
75
00:02:36.755 --> 00:02:38.325
Like I owned several pair
76
00:02:38.465 --> 00:02:41.405
and I just, I don't like the over the ear thing anymore.
77
00:02:41.475 --> 00:02:45.445
Yeah. Um, but like the Bose quiet Comfort twenties Yeah.
78
00:02:45.445 --> 00:02:47.005
Or whatever. That was the greatest headphone
79
00:02:47.005 --> 00:02:48.005
that's been made.
80
00:02:48.385 --> 00:02:51.405
And I just, I can't, I don't want the whole,
81
00:02:51.705 --> 00:02:52.765
the whole theme about,
82
00:02:52.825 --> 00:02:53.965
but like nothing's touched
83
00:02:53.965 --> 00:02:56.005
that I've done the like Bose noise
84
00:02:56.005 --> 00:02:57.285
canceling ones in the ear.
85
00:02:57.555 --> 00:02:59.005
They're fine. They're not as good.
86
00:02:59.695 --> 00:03:01.765
These are, again, it's the convenience.
87
00:03:01.765 --> 00:03:03.245
As soon as you open it and plug it in your ear,
88
00:03:03.245 --> 00:03:04.765
it's automatically connected to all your <inaudible>.
89
00:03:04.985 --> 00:03:07.325
So it's like, it's just, it's not plug and play.
90
00:03:07.795 --> 00:03:09.165
It's putting your ear in play.
91
00:03:09.545 --> 00:03:10.845
That's fair. I'm a big fan
92
00:03:10.845 --> 00:03:13.245
of stealing the Delta uh, headphones.
93
00:03:13.245 --> 00:03:15.525
Even when I don't need them. Like if I'm on
94
00:03:15.525 --> 00:03:18.365
30 cent ones that scratch the inside your
95
00:03:18.365 --> 00:03:20.965
Ear come in paper bags 'cause they're so cheap.
96
00:03:20.995 --> 00:03:22.645
Yeah. I love them. I use 'em for everything.
97
00:03:22.875 --> 00:03:24.285
What do you use
Them? I'm baffled by this.
98
00:03:24.285 --> 00:03:25.565
What is everything? Does
99
00:03:25.565 --> 00:03:27.765
Everything
Be, what are all these applications?
100
00:03:27.995 --> 00:03:30.045
Well, usually I look, I haven't flown in a while,
101
00:03:30.045 --> 00:03:32.445
so I'm using these 'cause my last pair of Delta ones broke.
102
00:03:32.505 --> 00:03:33.525
But when we're recording
103
00:03:33.525 --> 00:03:36.485
This, seen with Delta, no. Yeah.
104
00:03:36.585 --> 00:03:37.845
Tim go back and watch some videos. You
105
00:03:37.845 --> 00:03:38.845
Old have those heads.
106
00:03:39.025 --> 00:03:40.765
No. Come back and watch some of our old videos.
107
00:03:40.965 --> 00:03:42.765
I will take a screenshot now and send it to you.
108
00:03:43.305 --> 00:03:46.125
Um, and then on the Nintendo Switch they plug in.
109
00:03:46.125 --> 00:03:48.085
Sometimes if I want my Kindle to read something
110
00:03:48.085 --> 00:03:49.325
to me, I'll have it do that.
111
00:03:49.645 --> 00:03:52.005
I, I like the Delta ones so much to the point
112
00:03:52.005 --> 00:03:53.005
where if I have a layover
113
00:03:53.005 --> 00:03:55.245
and I have two Delta flight, I'll take one on each flight.
114
00:03:55.555 --> 00:03:56.685
Stop, stop, stop, stop.
115
00:03:56.875 --> 00:03:59.605
What is your Kindle reading to you?
116
00:03:59.945 --> 00:04:01.525
You don't have it read documents sometimes?
117
00:04:01.825 --> 00:04:03.285
No, I don't want a Kindle
118
00:04:03.405 --> 00:04:04.405
Document.
119
00:04:04.405 --> 00:04:04.525
You don't even, like, you're not even
120
00:04:04.525 --> 00:04:05.405
talking about like a book.
121
00:04:05.405 --> 00:04:07.605
You're saying like you'll have it read documents to you.
122
00:04:07.795 --> 00:04:09.005
Well, if I'm gonna listen to a book,
123
00:04:09.025 --> 00:04:10.605
I'm gonna get like the proper audio book.
124
00:04:10.735 --> 00:04:12.925
Right. But if I'm gonna like download it, if I,
125
00:04:12.925 --> 00:04:15.045
there's like an article I wanna read, I'll download it
126
00:04:15.045 --> 00:04:17.165
as PDF and I'll just have it like my Kindle read
127
00:04:17.185 --> 00:04:18.325
to me while I'm doing something else.
128
00:04:18.545 --> 00:04:20.285
Now you can have Siri do that, so I don't do
129
00:04:20.285 --> 00:04:21.365
that anymore. You can,
130
00:04:21.835 --> 00:04:22.835
Yeah.
131
00:04:22.835 --> 00:04:24.525
What, what documents do you
132
00:04:28.515 --> 00:04:29.165
anyways? There
133
00:04:29.165 --> 00:04:32.365
Was
You,
134
00:04:32.365 --> 00:04:34.205
you're like the least document.
135
00:04:34.425 --> 00:04:37.245
I'm yeah. Tied down guy I can think
136
00:04:37.245 --> 00:04:38.445
of. I mean I have, I know
137
00:04:39.205 --> 00:04:40.205
Documents sometimes.
138
00:04:40.465 --> 00:04:42.205
No, but like your scripts and stuff, right.
139
00:04:42.205 --> 00:04:44.285
Which obviously you're not having your Kindle read. I
140
00:04:44.285 --> 00:04:45.645
Don't do the Kindle read script. No.
141
00:04:45.655 --> 00:04:48.205
Right. So what documents that aren't, you know.
142
00:04:48.225 --> 00:04:50.885
No, but like there's like an outline on or
143
00:04:50.905 --> 00:04:55.045
or a, a show bible or pitch material that I need to go over
144
00:04:55.065 --> 00:04:57.645
and I don't want to like really focus on it. That
145
00:04:57.905 --> 00:04:58.905
Is that diet Cherry Coke?
146
00:04:59.065 --> 00:05:00.165
No, that is a Diet Coke.
147
00:05:01.325 --> 00:05:03.465
That's a, that's a Christmas diet Coke .
148
00:05:04.365 --> 00:05:06.905
Oh.
Which if there was a diet cherry coke,
149
00:05:07.025 --> 00:05:08.385
I would absolutely smash that.
150
00:05:08.725 --> 00:05:11.425
Um, but no, I did not know that Tim,
151
00:05:11.455 --> 00:05:13.265
that Siri can read my articles for me.
152
00:05:13.265 --> 00:05:16.625
Luckily I also have eyes, so I'm not gonna probably do
153
00:05:16.625 --> 00:05:17.785
that anytime soon.
154
00:05:18.125 --> 00:05:21.145
But like if I'm doing the dishes, I, I want, oh hey,
155
00:05:21.155 --> 00:05:23.185
there was this article that somebody sent on Don't
156
00:05:23.185 --> 00:05:24.345
Chat when you read your documents.
157
00:05:24.465 --> 00:05:25.705
I don't think, well,
158
00:05:25.745 --> 00:05:26.745
I was talking about the articles now.
159
00:05:26.745 --> 00:05:27.985
We moved on try
160
00:05:27.985 --> 00:05:31.985
and keep up like if I'm, if I'm cleaning up the kitchen
161
00:05:32.205 --> 00:05:33.945
and there's like an article somebody sent me
162
00:05:33.945 --> 00:05:34.945
Yeah.
163
00:05:34.945 --> 00:05:38.185
Podcasts I listen to while cleaning house or walking dogs.
164
00:05:38.365 --> 00:05:40.945
That's, that's a, that's a thing.
165
00:05:41.325 --> 00:05:42.625
So I can, I'm in a group chat
166
00:05:42.695 --> 00:05:43.905
That sends a bunch of articles.
167
00:05:43.935 --> 00:05:46.425
Like today there's been three articles in this group chat
168
00:05:46.525 --> 00:05:47.905
and uh, they're all kind of interesting.
169
00:05:47.905 --> 00:05:49.785
But I'm not gonna sit down and read all three of them.
170
00:05:50.085 --> 00:05:52.105
So like I'm gonna have 'em on while I'm doing other stuff.
171
00:05:52.165 --> 00:05:53.905
Do I know what's funny is when we, you're
172
00:05:53.905 --> 00:05:54.945
Gonna have your documents on
173
00:05:57.395 --> 00:05:58.395
, what you listen to really
174
00:05:58.685 --> 00:06:00.405
Documents on that word documents, aren't you?
175
00:06:00.555 --> 00:06:03.125
It's great. I just mentioned like that's
176
00:06:03.125 --> 00:06:05.485
what they're classified as in terms of a file.
177
00:06:05.875 --> 00:06:07.325
Like they're a dot doc
178
00:06:07.385 --> 00:06:09.165
or a do pdf DF they're in my
179
00:06:09.725 --> 00:06:11.245
documents folder on my computer.
180
00:06:11.585 --> 00:06:15.205
But no, I used one word and he's launched onto it.
181
00:06:16.085 --> 00:06:19.845
Got Siri just reading off his, uh, tax returns to him.
182
00:06:20.145 --> 00:06:22.125
You know what's funny, Tim? I guess, I mean, no, not Tim.
183
00:06:22.155 --> 00:06:24.765
Alex, you know what's funny is when Tim
184
00:06:25.695 --> 00:06:28.765
hears us talk about a group chat that we're on
185
00:06:28.765 --> 00:06:31.085
that he's not a part of, he immediately gets fomo
186
00:06:31.085 --> 00:06:33.085
and starts questioning what the group chat is
187
00:06:33.085 --> 00:06:34.125
and why he's not part of it.
188
00:06:34.145 --> 00:06:36.045
Mm-hmm. He just mentioned one that we're not on
189
00:06:36.185 --> 00:06:38.165
and all it does is share articles.
190
00:06:38.285 --> 00:06:39.965
I cannot tell you how uninterested I
191
00:06:39.965 --> 00:06:41.005
am in being on that group
192
00:06:41.005 --> 00:06:42.005
chat.
.
193
00:06:42.005 --> 00:06:43.765
Well we also talk about when we're gonna play board games,
194
00:06:43.985 --> 00:06:45.805
but it's lately it's just become an
195
00:06:45.805 --> 00:06:47.205
article sharing group chat. Do
196
00:06:47.205 --> 00:06:48.845
You guys, is it just no words, it's just like you guys
197
00:06:48.845 --> 00:06:50.965
respond with articles, just talk pretty much
198
00:06:50.995 --> 00:06:51.995
Just links.
199
00:06:51.995 --> 00:06:52.925
It's become that. Yeah. Do
200
00:06:52.925 --> 00:06:54.445
You, do you do like the little emoji
201
00:06:54.805 --> 00:06:56.005
responses or no? Yeah, you
202
00:06:56.005 --> 00:06:59.085
Do the like, you like it or you like do the, like the the
203
00:06:59.085 --> 00:07:01.165
Passive aggressive thumbs up. Yeah. Yeah.
204
00:07:01.465 --> 00:07:02.805
Do do you ever dislike it?
205
00:07:02.805 --> 00:07:05.165
If you don't like the article, will you go back and give it
206
00:07:05.205 --> 00:07:06.205
A thumbs down?
207
00:07:06.205 --> 00:07:06.685
Yeah, that's what just said. You, you go give it.
208
00:07:06.745 --> 00:07:08.325
But like, that's not to say like, Hey,
209
00:07:08.345 --> 00:07:09.965
you shouldn't have shared this.
210
00:07:10.265 --> 00:07:13.005
But it's like, oh man, this is about something that's bad.
211
00:07:13.345 --> 00:07:15.125
I'd feel bad if I liked that. Speaking
212
00:07:15.145 --> 00:07:17.685
Of documents, um, Alex Alban's a bitch.
213
00:07:18.205 --> 00:07:20.245
I just, yeah, I mean you're gonna have to,
214
00:07:20.245 --> 00:07:21.765
you're gonna have to hit me with this one
215
00:07:21.765 --> 00:07:24.725
because I I don't see where your hatreds coming from here.
216
00:07:25.105 --> 00:07:27.685
Did
You, did you not hear his whole onboard
217
00:07:27.905 --> 00:07:30.085
or like that, that whole message exchange.
218
00:07:30.595 --> 00:07:32.405
Okay. And you thought that was appropriate? I did.
219
00:07:32.405 --> 00:07:34.365
He was, it's not that I thought it was appropriate.
220
00:07:34.605 --> 00:07:36.445
I just thought that for the amount
221
00:07:36.445 --> 00:07:40.525
of times I've heard him say like, good stuff and Okay.
222
00:07:40.595 --> 00:07:43.005
Intelligent stuff, one outburst.
223
00:07:43.265 --> 00:07:45.805
I'm not necessarily gonna write him off as a human being.
224
00:07:46.285 --> 00:07:48.805
I think that's not how I operate.
225
00:07:49.585 --> 00:07:51.405
Um, you know, that, um,
226
00:07:51.525 --> 00:07:52.765
I wanna go through, I wanna go
227
00:07:52.765 --> 00:07:54.085
through your old radio messages
228
00:07:54.825 --> 00:07:56.685
and see how many times you've just mother
229
00:07:57.155 --> 00:07:58.605
team for a strategy call.
230
00:07:58.835 --> 00:08:03.285
Just the once and it was,
It ended. Okay.
231
00:08:03.405 --> 00:08:05.525
I mean it wasn't, it wasn't really a strategy call.
232
00:08:05.875 --> 00:08:08.685
More so just a complete and total failure
233
00:08:08.685 --> 00:08:09.765
Of operational blunder.
234
00:08:09.875 --> 00:08:13.485
Yeah, yeah, exactly. Um, no, here's,
235
00:08:13.715 --> 00:08:15.365
here is what I didn't like.
236
00:08:15.725 --> 00:08:19.565
I I it, I think I'm just bothered by the tone of voice
237
00:08:19.705 --> 00:08:20.805
of these younger drivers
238
00:08:20.905 --> 00:08:23.005
and man, I am old man on bench right now.
239
00:08:23.365 --> 00:08:26.125
I love it. I love it so much. Hold on.
240
00:08:26.575 --> 00:08:29.045
First of all, up update what you're talking about.
241
00:08:29.425 --> 00:08:31.965
So during the race Alban, um, who
242
00:08:31.965 --> 00:08:34.365
by the way has been doing an incredible job this year.
243
00:08:34.515 --> 00:08:38.845
When you think about, um, who he's competing against
244
00:08:38.865 --> 00:08:41.885
as his teammate, you know, Carlos signs multi Grand Prix
245
00:08:41.885 --> 00:08:44.245
winner, you know, was challenging
246
00:08:44.785 --> 00:08:47.245
old Charles in a Ferrari pretty much
247
00:08:47.245 --> 00:08:48.325
every weekend for years.
248
00:08:48.515 --> 00:08:50.005
Like they were neck and neck
249
00:08:50.585 --> 00:08:54.285
and go, Carlos goes to the Williams Alban.
250
00:08:54.285 --> 00:08:56.205
There's always kind of been an asterisk by him
251
00:08:56.325 --> 00:08:58.205
'cause you know, he had that difficult stint and Red Bull
252
00:08:58.205 --> 00:08:59.725
and then he is been with a team that you know,
253
00:08:59.725 --> 00:09:02.445
hasn't had a car and how good of his teammate's really been.
254
00:09:02.445 --> 00:09:05.085
Anyways, he's clearly very fast, um,
255
00:09:05.435 --> 00:09:07.685
qualified in the top 10.
256
00:09:07.685 --> 00:09:10.285
Did he make it into Q3? Yeah, he was ninth. Yeah. Okay.
257
00:09:10.905 --> 00:09:12.925
And was kind of running there the whole time.
258
00:09:13.105 --> 00:09:17.445
And I think that, you know, it was a, a, um,
259
00:09:18.025 --> 00:09:19.805
eye piercingly boring race.
260
00:09:20.545 --> 00:09:22.885
Um, and so there wasn't really a lot of options.
261
00:09:22.905 --> 00:09:25.445
But I think the team maybe tried to take, you know, uh,
262
00:09:25.725 --> 00:09:27.805
a gamble, um, and kept him out a little bit longer.
263
00:09:27.865 --> 00:09:31.245
And he basically got undercut and he lost a couple spots
264
00:09:31.305 --> 00:09:32.925
and all it was was just this
265
00:09:33.665 --> 00:09:36.365
crying on the radio about basically how inept
266
00:09:36.675 --> 00:09:39.685
that decision was and how stupid they were for doing it
267
00:09:39.785 --> 00:09:42.325
and how dare they do this to him, blah, blah blah.
268
00:09:42.665 --> 00:09:47.295
And it's just like you were stuck in, in position, whatever.
269
00:09:47.845 --> 00:09:49.695
Okay. You weren't going anywhere.
270
00:09:50.315 --> 00:09:51.815
You probably would've yelled at us
271
00:09:51.815 --> 00:09:52.935
if we didn't try and do something.
272
00:09:52.935 --> 00:09:54.895
So we were trying to do something. It didn't work out.
273
00:09:55.285 --> 00:09:57.575
Like no one is doing anything in this race.
274
00:09:57.915 --> 00:09:59.655
The response was, it would've been even worse
275
00:09:59.715 --> 00:10:00.815
if we didn't do what we did.
276
00:10:01.035 --> 00:10:02.855
So shut up. You don't have all the information.
277
00:10:02.925 --> 00:10:05.255
Stop whining. Like, I don't mind some emotion and yelling,
278
00:10:05.635 --> 00:10:08.095
but like it was just the, oh my God you guys,
279
00:10:08.355 --> 00:10:09.695
how dare you do this to me.
280
00:10:09.715 --> 00:10:10.975
And it's just like, bro,
281
00:10:11.165 --> 00:10:12.735
Yeah, it was what
That what I did,
282
00:10:12.735 --> 00:10:13.975
what was about it? I think,
283
00:10:14.125 --> 00:10:16.335
Yeah, he made it sound like he knew better.
284
00:10:17.425 --> 00:10:20.015
Right? Where like when you're in the car,
285
00:10:20.355 --> 00:10:21.735
you can only see one race.
286
00:10:21.995 --> 00:10:24.255
You only know what's happening to you
287
00:10:24.395 --> 00:10:26.135
and maybe directly in front of you.
288
00:10:26.305 --> 00:10:30.015
Right? You don't know the implications of anything else.
289
00:10:30.315 --> 00:10:33.135
And so, and I've said this to like other drivers,
290
00:10:33.485 --> 00:10:35.135
I've had this conversation with guys
291
00:10:35.135 --> 00:10:38.015
before when I've witnessed that kind of behavior.
292
00:10:38.165 --> 00:10:39.495
It's like, look man, you have
293
00:10:39.495 --> 00:10:43.215
to assume when you're in the car that the team can see stuff
294
00:10:43.215 --> 00:10:46.175
that you can't, they know stuff that you don't.
295
00:10:46.475 --> 00:10:48.695
And those decisions are based on all the
296
00:10:48.695 --> 00:10:49.815
stuff that you do not know.
297
00:10:50.275 --> 00:10:52.415
If you get outta the car and you guys have your debrief
298
00:10:52.415 --> 00:10:54.535
and you realize after the fact they've done something dumb,
299
00:10:54.875 --> 00:10:56.575
you guys can have that conversation then.
300
00:10:56.835 --> 00:10:59.255
But in the race it is so pointless fighting
301
00:10:59.255 --> 00:11:00.655
with your team about something like that
302
00:11:00.725 --> 00:11:02.655
because you don't have all the information.
303
00:11:02.955 --> 00:11:04.255
Do you wanna know what the funny part is?
304
00:11:04.255 --> 00:11:06.455
Like during the same race, uh,
305
00:11:06.475 --> 00:11:08.695
before the first stop, max comes on the radio
306
00:11:08.755 --> 00:11:11.535
and he was like, um, can I start pushing?
307
00:11:11.535 --> 00:11:13.855
Because like he knew that they were getting into a pit
308
00:11:13.855 --> 00:11:15.455
window and that like, I guess he knew
309
00:11:15.455 --> 00:11:17.095
that cars were starting to cycle based on,
310
00:11:17.095 --> 00:11:18.935
he was probably watching TV around the track or whatever
311
00:11:19.315 --> 00:11:22.825
and his engineer was like, oh yeah, yeah,
312
00:11:23.005 --> 00:11:24.705
you probably should start doing that.
313
00:11:24.815 --> 00:11:27.465
Like, he start pushing out, I think Max Max is the exception
314
00:11:27.745 --> 00:11:29.105
'cause he probably does know more
315
00:11:29.105 --> 00:11:30.985
somehow than everyone else.
316
00:11:31.325 --> 00:11:32.545
Um, but yes, otherwise he
317
00:11:32.775 --> 00:11:33.865
Also gets on the radio sometimes
318
00:11:34.005 --> 00:11:35.745
and on the team pretty hard. But
319
00:11:36.205 --> 00:11:37.205
For sure, for sure.
320
00:11:37.305 --> 00:11:39.345
I just, yeah, I don't know. I think, I think it, it,
321
00:11:39.605 --> 00:11:41.385
it was kind of a trend this weekend.
322
00:11:41.535 --> 00:11:46.265
Like bor, bor, borello, Gabrielle Borello,
323
00:11:46.705 --> 00:11:50.145
whatever's Balto, um, was like screaming
324
00:11:50.205 --> 00:11:53.405
and crying on the radio when he almost lost it in one 30 r
325
00:11:53.495 --> 00:11:54.525
about how the car broke.
326
00:11:54.665 --> 00:11:56.205
And he like just put his right sides in
327
00:11:56.205 --> 00:11:57.245
the grass before he turned in.
328
00:11:57.355 --> 00:11:59.485
It's like, what are you guys, what are you guys doing?
329
00:11:59.625 --> 00:12:03.005
And then old, old Jack, Jack doing
330
00:12:03.345 --> 00:12:05.685
or whatever, when he turned into turn one
331
00:12:05.685 --> 00:12:07.805
with the DRS open and he hits the wall.
332
00:12:07.805 --> 00:12:10.045
And thankfully he was okay 'cause that was a monstrous hit.
333
00:12:10.505 --> 00:12:11.925
And he comes on the radio and he's like,
334
00:12:12.155 --> 00:12:14.005
what happened? And they're like,
335
00:12:14.875 --> 00:12:16.485
Well, there was a, there was,
336
00:12:16.935 --> 00:12:18.485
There was a button you were supposed to hit.
337
00:12:18.795 --> 00:12:23.405
Yeah. Yeah. So, um, we've just gone straight into Suzuka.
338
00:12:23.415 --> 00:12:25.445
James, why don't you, why don't you talk, hang
339
00:12:25.445 --> 00:12:26.445
On, talk to us.
340
00:12:26.445 --> 00:12:27.565
I wanted to touch on something if we can't real quick,
341
00:12:27.565 --> 00:12:29.165
just based on what you guys were talking about there,
342
00:12:29.165 --> 00:12:31.405
because you were talking about like, you have
343
00:12:31.405 --> 00:12:32.485
to put the trust in the fact
344
00:12:32.485 --> 00:12:35.565
that the team has more information than you do coming up.
345
00:12:35.565 --> 00:12:36.605
Obviously. Like you start in
346
00:12:36.605 --> 00:12:37.765
go-karting, that's not the case.
347
00:12:37.765 --> 00:12:40.205
You're the one out there. You don't, you're not getting
348
00:12:40.755 --> 00:12:42.765
information piped into your head from somebody else.
349
00:12:43.065 --> 00:12:44.605
So when you start making the transition
350
00:12:44.605 --> 00:12:46.045
to being in the forms of racing
351
00:12:46.115 --> 00:12:48.325
that you do have someone in your ear kind
352
00:12:48.525 --> 00:12:50.805
of giving you strategy, how is that adjustment
353
00:12:50.805 --> 00:12:52.325
or how was it for you guys? Well,
354
00:12:52.325 --> 00:12:54.525
You don't have any strategy until,
355
00:12:55.055 --> 00:12:58.405
until essentially IndyCar F1 ssa until there's,
356
00:12:58.405 --> 00:13:00.005
until there's pit stops, there's no strategy.
357
00:13:00.005 --> 00:13:01.285
Okay? The strategy is keep the tires
358
00:13:01.285 --> 00:13:02.445
under you and beat the other guys.
359
00:13:02.905 --> 00:13:05.325
So you don't really need a lot of coaching on that.
360
00:13:05.345 --> 00:13:07.405
You don't really need a lot of back and forth on that.
361
00:13:08.065 --> 00:13:11.125
Um, so the, so, so the short answer is, Tim, I mean,
362
00:13:11.125 --> 00:13:13.325
you get there as a rookie and you as a rookie,
363
00:13:13.385 --> 00:13:14.845
you know, abs actually nothing.
364
00:13:15.345 --> 00:13:16.965
And so I think everybody kind of comes in
365
00:13:16.965 --> 00:13:19.565
with this blind faith that what you're being told is gospel.
366
00:13:19.745 --> 00:13:22.005
And it's not till you're 2, 3, 4 years into your career
367
00:13:22.005 --> 00:13:24.605
that you start being like, okay, is this really
368
00:13:24.605 --> 00:13:25.725
what we should be doing?
369
00:13:26.395 --> 00:13:28.205
Even when Yeah, nine times outta 10, it is.
370
00:13:28.205 --> 00:13:30.445
Look, teams make mistakes too, right? Absolutely.
371
00:13:30.505 --> 00:13:32.405
But it's something to, to talk about after the race
372
00:13:32.405 --> 00:13:35.525
because there's not a lot of, there's not a good,
373
00:13:35.985 --> 00:13:40.005
the the exception is, is times when like, like in,
374
00:13:40.025 --> 00:13:41.125
in the F1 race in China,
375
00:13:41.185 --> 00:13:45.645
or you go back to spa last year when the race pivoted from
376
00:13:45.645 --> 00:13:46.845
what people thought it was gonna be
377
00:13:47.715 --> 00:13:49.405
from two stops to one stop.
378
00:13:49.545 --> 00:13:51.285
And so the driver's like, Hey,
379
00:13:51.285 --> 00:13:53.085
I know you guys said we're supposed to box next lap,
380
00:13:53.085 --> 00:13:54.405
but like the tires are pretty good.
381
00:13:54.405 --> 00:13:55.765
Like, I think I can keep this going.
382
00:13:55.865 --> 00:13:57.965
Is there a chance we can stretch this out?
383
00:13:58.225 --> 00:14:00.125
And then they'll figure it out on, in their heads
384
00:14:00.125 --> 00:14:02.445
and be like, okay, if you think you can keep this pace up,
385
00:14:02.445 --> 00:14:04.045
then yes, if you don't, then no.
386
00:14:04.265 --> 00:14:06.725
And in those cases, yes, the driver can play a part in it,
387
00:14:07.065 --> 00:14:09.565
but, and that's, and that's only gonna come,
388
00:14:09.565 --> 00:14:12.005
that decision can only be made with input from the driver.
389
00:14:12.545 --> 00:14:15.085
So it's, it is a two-way street,
390
00:14:15.105 --> 00:14:16.805
but it's like a, it's like an eight lane highway,
391
00:14:17.025 --> 00:14:19.845
one direction and like a two lane country road coming back
392
00:14:19.865 --> 00:14:20.885
the other way, if you know what
393
00:14:21.045 --> 00:14:22.045
I mean.
394
00:14:22.045 --> 00:14:24.085
Sorry Alex, I just, I was curious about that problem,
395
00:14:24.145 --> 00:14:26.365
Tim, anytime that we can teach you about motorsport,
396
00:14:26.555 --> 00:14:28.645
it's just a, well, I figure it's just a,
397
00:14:28.805 --> 00:14:30.325
I have a question about something, positive moment. There's
398
00:14:30.325 --> 00:14:31.725
Gotta be at least one
399
00:14:31.725 --> 00:14:33.245
or two people listening who also
400
00:14:33.245 --> 00:14:34.965
have a question about that. , we're
401
00:14:34.965 --> 00:14:35.965
Doing this for Aunt Linda.
402
00:14:37.225 --> 00:14:39.245
Um, okay, so James, you were,
403
00:14:39.665 --> 00:14:41.125
you were in Japan for quite some time.
404
00:14:41.365 --> 00:14:42.365
I don't know where you are right now,
405
00:14:42.625 --> 00:14:44.485
but, uh, whatever, you're similar Malibu.
406
00:14:44.745 --> 00:14:49.485
Um, and so talk to us about your journey,
407
00:14:49.915 --> 00:14:54.085
like your journey down south to Suzuka, what you thought
408
00:14:54.385 --> 00:14:57.245
of the track, what you thought of a race
409
00:14:57.245 --> 00:14:59.045
that had always been on your bucket list forever.
410
00:14:59.665 --> 00:15:03.975
The fan experience, the track itself, everything.
411
00:15:04.485 --> 00:15:07.815
Talk to us. Tell us, did it live up to expectations? I'll
412
00:15:07.815 --> 00:15:10.935
Talk and then, uh, you can rebuttal with all
413
00:15:10.935 --> 00:15:13.375
of your real world experience from the other side of it.
414
00:15:13.875 --> 00:15:15.535
Um, yeah, so
415
00:15:15.715 --> 00:15:16.715
All of it.
416
00:15:16.715 --> 00:15:17.695
My one, my one time,
417
00:15:18.875 --> 00:15:20.455
One time in the, in the big show.
418
00:15:20.455 --> 00:15:23.215
Yeah, like, that's a big deal. So we'll get there.
419
00:15:23.275 --> 00:15:26.975
So, um, yeah, we've talked about this tracks a bucket list
420
00:15:26.975 --> 00:15:31.055
for every driver and, um, you hear all these stories about
421
00:15:31.055 --> 00:15:32.535
how passionate the fans are there.
422
00:15:32.735 --> 00:15:34.255
I got to witness that a little bit when
423
00:15:34.405 --> 00:15:35.855
IndyCar raced at Motegi.
424
00:15:36.235 --> 00:15:38.415
Um, so I've, I've had some experience with the,
425
00:15:38.515 --> 00:15:40.775
the Japanese fan base and they're the best.
426
00:15:40.775 --> 00:15:43.815
They're just hilarious and they're so passionate.
427
00:15:44.155 --> 00:15:47.095
But like the most respectful group of
428
00:15:47.685 --> 00:15:49.895
like the most respectful mass
429
00:15:49.915 --> 00:15:51.975
of people I think you could ever find.
430
00:15:52.525 --> 00:15:54.575
Like you could find individuals that are equally
431
00:15:54.635 --> 00:15:56.015
as respectful from different places
432
00:15:56.075 --> 00:15:57.295
and different cultures or whatever.
433
00:15:57.715 --> 00:16:00.775
You will never find a mass audience as respectful as that.
434
00:16:01.475 --> 00:16:03.175
So like a great example is in the fans,
435
00:16:03.245 --> 00:16:04.935
Well you have to because your, your nose
436
00:16:05.195 --> 00:16:06.335
to butts the whole time.
437
00:16:07.275 --> 00:16:10.375
so many nose to butts. Just so much nose to butt.
438
00:16:11.435 --> 00:16:14.415
So the fan zone there is, you know, big stage
439
00:16:14.415 --> 00:16:15.415
where drivers come out
440
00:16:15.415 --> 00:16:16.415
and it's, you know, 20,
441
00:16:16.415 --> 00:16:18.455
30,000 people sit, maybe not that many.
442
00:16:18.455 --> 00:16:20.935
Maybe it's five, 10,000 people in this area.
443
00:16:21.035 --> 00:16:23.295
And it's like concert stage kind of set up
444
00:16:23.415 --> 00:16:24.495
and drivers come out, whatever.
445
00:16:25.235 --> 00:16:28.495
And you go to Silverstone or you go to Melbourne
446
00:16:28.515 --> 00:16:30.655
or you go to Austin, you go to all these places
447
00:16:31.235 --> 00:16:32.695
and it's like madness.
448
00:16:32.725 --> 00:16:35.255
It's chaos. Everybody's cheering and screaming
449
00:16:35.315 --> 00:16:37.175
and throwing beads up on the stage
450
00:16:37.195 --> 00:16:38.375
and like all sorts of stuff right?
451
00:16:38.995 --> 00:16:43.945
In Japan, pin drop, completely silent.
452
00:16:44.415 --> 00:16:48.665
Everybody is sitting, there's no like interaction.
453
00:16:48.665 --> 00:16:50.905
Like it's, it's like a little unnerving almost,
454
00:16:51.205 --> 00:16:52.985
but it's just 'cause they're trying to be polite, right?
455
00:16:52.985 --> 00:16:54.065
Like they'll clap at the end.
456
00:16:54.065 --> 00:16:55.585
They're kind of like very polite, gentle,
457
00:16:55.735 --> 00:16:56.985
like golf clap sort of thing.
458
00:16:57.445 --> 00:16:59.465
But it's not the hooting and hooting
459
00:16:59.465 --> 00:17:01.665
and hollering that you're used to seeing other fan zones
460
00:17:01.665 --> 00:17:02.745
and it's like a little eerie.
461
00:17:02.745 --> 00:17:03.865
It kind of throws people off.
462
00:17:04.565 --> 00:17:06.185
And it's funny, dude, 'cause I even got,
463
00:17:06.905 --> 00:17:08.105
I got a comment on Twitter
464
00:17:08.105 --> 00:17:09.745
after the race, which I thought was funny
465
00:17:10.895 --> 00:17:13.425
because I did the post-race interviews, right?
466
00:17:14.045 --> 00:17:17.545
And when you do those interviews, the microphone links up
467
00:17:17.545 --> 00:17:20.745
to the speaker in the facility so
468
00:17:20.745 --> 00:17:22.025
that way all the fans can hear the thing.
469
00:17:22.045 --> 00:17:23.545
And this, like, every time I've done it,
470
00:17:23.545 --> 00:17:24.665
this has been the case.
471
00:17:25.445 --> 00:17:27.505
And so normally you like start the question
472
00:17:27.525 --> 00:17:29.785
or like introduce the guy, say whatever,
473
00:17:29.965 --> 00:17:33.345
and you give the fans a a you hold for a second
474
00:17:33.405 --> 00:17:35.625
so the fans can do a little cheer and depending on who it is
475
00:17:35.625 --> 00:17:37.425
and where they are, that amount changes, right?
476
00:17:38.245 --> 00:17:41.385
So like Max, max comes up, but he's wins.
477
00:17:41.445 --> 00:17:42.985
You know, he's, he's a legend there.
478
00:17:42.985 --> 00:17:44.905
He is won that race four times in a row now.
479
00:17:44.905 --> 00:17:46.425
Like all, all these cool, whatever.
480
00:17:46.925 --> 00:17:48.105
And so we're like, all right, yo,
481
00:17:48.175 --> 00:17:49.605
what are your grand Prix max
482
00:17:49.605 --> 00:17:54.015
for snapping guys?
483
00:17:55.435 --> 00:17:58.135
All right, let's just carry on that . It was dead silent.
484
00:17:58.195 --> 00:18:00.295
Nobody said anything. I was like, okay, fine.
485
00:18:00.295 --> 00:18:02.575
All no, no noise. So I got this guy on Twitter
486
00:18:02.575 --> 00:18:05.415
that was like, ah, this hitch cliff guy needs to understand
487
00:18:05.415 --> 00:18:06.935
that you gotta give the fans time
488
00:18:06.935 --> 00:18:08.735
to react when you introduce the drivers
489
00:18:08.765 --> 00:18:11.095
because he just went straight into the first question
490
00:18:11.095 --> 00:18:12.935
without giving anyone a chance to cheer
491
00:18:12.935 --> 00:18:14.735
and the drivers to take in that moment.
492
00:18:14.875 --> 00:18:16.975
I'm like, no, no, I did. They make no noise.
493
00:18:17.155 --> 00:18:20.175
You don't understand. They do not make noise. That
494
00:18:20.175 --> 00:18:21.775
Was me on Twitter, not my burner by the way.
495
00:18:22.095 --> 00:18:23.935
I was gonna say, I'm generally like, I get that,
496
00:18:23.935 --> 00:18:26.695
but I'm also pro anybody criticizing you online,
497
00:18:26.885 --> 00:18:29.095
like I don't wanna totally, I don't wanna discourage that.
498
00:18:30.075 --> 00:18:31.335
So, so anyway, the,
499
00:18:31.875 --> 00:18:36.295
the track I was just hoping when I got there that, you know,
500
00:18:36.305 --> 00:18:40.335
often in these, these shows we'll do like, um, we we'll get
501
00:18:40.335 --> 00:18:42.175
to participate in the hot laps
502
00:18:42.175 --> 00:18:44.295
to do like a lap for the broadcast, right?
503
00:18:44.295 --> 00:18:45.935
Like a track preview or whatever.
504
00:18:46.995 --> 00:18:50.615
The Hot Laps program where all the different OEMs give two
505
00:18:50.615 --> 00:18:53.695
or three cars to drivers and they take fans around whatever.
506
00:18:54.005 --> 00:18:55.095
They don't bring it to Japan.
507
00:18:55.995 --> 00:18:58.935
And so I was like, oh man, like I was so bummed
508
00:18:59.755 --> 00:19:01.335
and Alex Jakes the lead commentator
509
00:19:01.475 --> 00:19:02.415
and I were talking about it and
510
00:19:02.415 --> 00:19:03.335
he's like, hold on, I got an idea.
511
00:19:03.595 --> 00:19:05.455
And he reached out to one of our producers,
512
00:19:05.455 --> 00:19:07.295
George Crocu big shout out George.
513
00:19:07.855 --> 00:19:10.215
'cause George got in touch with a Porsche Super Cup
514
00:19:10.235 --> 00:19:13.015
or Porsche Carrera Cup Japan team.
515
00:19:13.495 --> 00:19:17.135
I was like, Hey, can one of our commentators take one
516
00:19:17.135 --> 00:19:18.655
of your race cars around the track on Thursday?
517
00:19:19.035 --> 00:19:23.255
And they're like, yeah, sure. I was like, what? Okay.
518
00:19:24.075 --> 00:19:28.455
So I rock up, I have a helmet I have where a pair
519
00:19:28.455 --> 00:19:30.295
of boots from where I don't know somebody.
520
00:19:30.435 --> 00:19:32.615
So like I an open face helmet that was just at the track
521
00:19:32.765 --> 00:19:35.215
that George got it like specked out for me, okay.
522
00:19:35.675 --> 00:19:39.495
And I had, um, I stole a pair of boots from one
523
00:19:39.495 --> 00:19:42.135
of the drivers, one of the F1 drivers who I'm gonna not name
524
00:19:42.135 --> 00:19:43.655
because he doesn't know that I took them
525
00:19:44.375 --> 00:19:46.695
and I was, I was in street clothes.
526
00:19:46.695 --> 00:19:48.295
They're like, oh well, like we do passenger rides
527
00:19:48.295 --> 00:19:49.135
and they don't have to wear race
528
00:19:49.135 --> 00:19:50.295
suits, you can just go in your street clothes.
529
00:19:50.495 --> 00:19:53.215
I was like, okay, so I'm wearing race boots a helmet
530
00:19:53.275 --> 00:19:54.935
and street clothes, get into this thing.
531
00:19:55.235 --> 00:19:56.455
And they're just like, yeah, here's the car.
532
00:19:56.825 --> 00:19:59.135
Drive out that way and hang a right and there's pit lane.
533
00:19:59.235 --> 00:20:02.135
And I was like, no, no info.
534
00:20:02.135 --> 00:20:05.455
Like no prep, no nothing, just off you go. Like, yeah.
535
00:20:05.455 --> 00:20:06.855
Like I, dude, I got in it
536
00:20:06.855 --> 00:20:08.695
and I was like, Hey, how do you start it?
537
00:20:08.765 --> 00:20:11.295
Like, nobody even showed me how to turn the thing on.
538
00:20:12.315 --> 00:20:13.655
And there's like, yeah, go ahead.
539
00:20:13.915 --> 00:20:15.535
And so I just gotta, I was like four laps.
540
00:20:15.555 --> 00:20:16.615
It wasn't a lot of running,
541
00:20:16.715 --> 00:20:19.255
but like, dude, I gotta go rip around Suzuka
542
00:20:19.255 --> 00:20:21.415
for four lap in a Porsche Super Cup car or Porsche.
543
00:20:21.795 --> 00:20:24.615
Was it with slicks?
Yes, it was with Slicks.
544
00:20:24.955 --> 00:20:26.095
Oh my god. In
545
00:20:26.095 --> 00:20:27.095
Street clothes.
546
00:20:27.095 --> 00:20:28.295
They just fired me in street clothes.
547
00:20:28.725 --> 00:20:30.815
Dude, the seat belts were so loose.
548
00:20:31.015 --> 00:20:32.975
I don't know even know who the driver was, huh?
549
00:20:33.095 --> 00:20:34.175
I maxed out everything.
550
00:20:34.175 --> 00:20:36.095
And I was like, I am barely in this car,
551
00:20:36.155 --> 00:20:37.455
man, this is so bad.
552
00:20:37.995 --> 00:20:39.975
And like, I obviously wasn't gonna go out
553
00:20:39.975 --> 00:20:41.575
and like fire it off 10 tens
554
00:20:41.575 --> 00:20:44.215
and put myself in a position to crash, but like, why not?
555
00:20:44.235 --> 00:20:47.485
Big failures happen and tires come loose sometimes
556
00:20:47.705 --> 00:20:49.565
and like, I don't know who built this car, .
557
00:20:50.065 --> 00:20:51.605
And they're just like, yeah, have at it bud.
558
00:20:51.665 --> 00:20:53.645
I'm like, this is the least formula one weekend
559
00:20:53.645 --> 00:20:56.645
experience I've ever had. So loose.
560
00:20:56.945 --> 00:20:58.085
It was awesome. That's so cool though.
561
00:20:59.065 --> 00:21:00.845
So cool, man. So I just got the racetrack
562
00:21:00.845 --> 00:21:03.205
to myself on Thursday for four laps and Got it.
563
00:21:03.205 --> 00:21:07.205
Just go feel it and see it and Awesome. Wow. Wow.
564
00:21:07.705 --> 00:21:09.125
Chills, literal chills.
565
00:21:09.545 --> 00:21:13.245
It was like, it's so much more narrow than the cabinetry.
566
00:21:13.265 --> 00:21:16.605
Chills
. Thank you. Thank you for picking that up.
567
00:21:17.885 --> 00:21:22.405
I, um, it's so narrow. I was shocked at how narrow it felt.
568
00:21:22.685 --> 00:21:26.565
Hmm. Um, and the the full probably the
569
00:21:26.565 --> 00:21:29.845
Race is
Well yeah, I mean like, well, yeah, so anyway,
570
00:21:29.845 --> 00:21:31.965
so the, the, that experience was great.
571
00:21:32.505 --> 00:21:33.525
The track is incredible.
572
00:21:34.385 --> 00:21:36.405
The race was almost,
573
00:21:36.705 --> 00:21:39.285
it was this second most boring race we've
574
00:21:39.285 --> 00:21:40.525
seen in the last two years.
575
00:21:40.715 --> 00:21:44.445
Beat only by Monaco last year when everybody pit on the red
576
00:21:44.445 --> 00:21:45.925
flag in the first lap and then drove
577
00:21:45.925 --> 00:21:47.805
around on hards five seconds off the pace
578
00:21:48.185 --> 00:21:49.485
and didn't change a single position.
579
00:21:49.505 --> 00:21:51.245
Oh, I thought you were gonna say St. Pete IndyCar.
580
00:21:51.505 --> 00:21:53.605
No dude. Way, way more entertaining than
581
00:21:53.845 --> 00:21:55.365
anything that happened in Japan. No.
582
00:21:55.425 --> 00:21:58.845
Um, no. So I saw, I saw, did you see Jeremy Clarkson's,
583
00:21:59.025 --> 00:22:00.605
uh, tweet a couple days ago?
584
00:22:00.685 --> 00:22:02.965
I did not. Oh yeah. I think I, he was like, I've had,
585
00:22:03.115 --> 00:22:05.405
I've had an idea to make F1 racing more
586
00:22:05.405 --> 00:22:06.525
consistently exciting.
587
00:22:06.775 --> 00:22:08.525
Don't use tracks for overtaking is
588
00:22:08.525 --> 00:22:09.765
difficult. It's got some logic
589
00:22:09.765 --> 00:22:10.885
To it that's very practical. Yeah,
590
00:22:10.885 --> 00:22:11.925
Yeah, yeah. It's very
591
00:22:11.925 --> 00:22:12.925
Practical.
592
00:22:13.025 --> 00:22:15.965
Um, uh, harder to execute.
593
00:22:19.905 --> 00:22:21.485
So, okay, the race was boring.
594
00:22:21.485 --> 00:22:24.005
There seemed to be a lot of, uh, of,
595
00:22:24.065 --> 00:22:26.805
of chatter about the, about qualifying.
596
00:22:26.805 --> 00:22:28.925
Well, so is that worth, worth recapping?
597
00:22:29.025 --> 00:22:30.085
We, we, we talked,
598
00:22:30.185 --> 00:22:33.525
we talked last week a lot about the Red Bull, uh, situation.
599
00:22:34.505 --> 00:22:38.845
And if you guys listened, uh, you um,
600
00:22:40.275 --> 00:22:41.815
you uh, realized that James
601
00:22:41.815 --> 00:22:43.495
and I at the end both said that
602
00:22:44.075 --> 00:22:47.455
no way is Liam Lawson gonna out qualify Yuki Sonta
603
00:22:48.035 --> 00:22:51.655
and no way is Yuki Sonta gonna be close to Max.
604
00:22:52.595 --> 00:22:56.015
And we were right, I must say, um, that no Lawson
605
00:22:56.275 --> 00:22:58.595
Didn't qualify Yuki
No,
606
00:22:58.745 --> 00:23:01.235
They were 14th and 15th. Yeah. . Yeah.
607
00:23:01.695 --> 00:23:04.995
Was it true? Oh shoot, well, okay, whatever.
608
00:23:05.135 --> 00:23:07.035
It wasn't like this big. Oh my God. First
609
00:23:07.035 --> 00:23:09.235
By what it, and like it wasn't in Yuki's
610
00:23:09.235 --> 00:23:10.795
defense, he got a look.
611
00:23:10.855 --> 00:23:11.955
You still gotta, you still gotta,
612
00:23:12.375 --> 00:23:13.555
you execute when it happens.
613
00:23:13.815 --> 00:23:17.995
But like the team, the way the red flag fell in Q2,
614
00:23:18.055 --> 00:23:19.355
he kind of got boned a little bit.
615
00:23:19.455 --> 00:23:22.235
And so if you look in practice man on the soft,
616
00:23:22.375 --> 00:23:24.795
he was legitimately almost as fast as Max,
617
00:23:24.825 --> 00:23:28.475
like he was within a 10th or two of max over a single app.
618
00:23:28.775 --> 00:23:31.875
It was much, much better than anyone's done in that car
619
00:23:32.015 --> 00:23:34.075
for the last 36 months.
620
00:23:34.615 --> 00:23:37.475
So some potential there, he boned it in qualifying
621
00:23:37.615 --> 00:23:39.315
and the team boned him a little bit in qualifying.
622
00:23:39.615 --> 00:23:43.675
But um, overall did like actually a pretty solid job.
623
00:23:44.215 --> 00:23:46.765
But what was so impressive about qualifying, Tim
624
00:23:46.985 --> 00:23:50.085
and Alex knows this, it's, it was just another example
625
00:23:50.185 --> 00:23:51.565
of why Max first happened is
626
00:23:51.565 --> 00:23:52.965
so much better than everybody right now.
627
00:23:53.705 --> 00:23:57.645
His qualifying lap in a car like the, the McLaren were
628
00:23:58.395 --> 00:24:01.245
comfortably a quarter second a lap faster than anybody
629
00:24:02.665 --> 00:24:04.125
in Suzuka lab.
630
00:24:04.625 --> 00:24:07.925
And look, if you wanna say once everybody shows up
631
00:24:07.925 --> 00:24:10.805
for qualifying that that deficit can, can shrink a bit
632
00:24:10.805 --> 00:24:13.565
because Red Bull's got a special engine map
633
00:24:13.665 --> 00:24:16.005
or you know, Mercedes has a special engine map
634
00:24:16.005 --> 00:24:17.605
or something, they run a bit more fuel in
635
00:24:17.765 --> 00:24:18.845
practice, whatever, fine.
636
00:24:19.305 --> 00:24:21.165
But it's, it's a 10th and a half.
637
00:24:21.165 --> 00:24:23.605
If it's not two and a half, like it's all of easy 10th
638
00:24:23.605 --> 00:24:25.005
and a half easy, 10th and a half.
639
00:24:25.985 --> 00:24:30.045
And what Max did in qualifying was he
640
00:24:30.435 --> 00:24:32.445
extracted everything that car could do
641
00:24:32.445 --> 00:24:35.755
and then some where the other guys just made mistakes.
642
00:24:35.775 --> 00:24:37.075
He was absolutely perfect.
643
00:24:38.095 --> 00:24:42.515
So we talk about your theoretical best labs, right?
644
00:24:42.775 --> 00:24:44.675
So F1 tracks have three sectors
645
00:24:45.655 --> 00:24:49.195
and in qualifying, let's say you do two runs in Q1,
646
00:24:49.335 --> 00:24:51.635
two runs in Q2, two runs in Q3.
647
00:24:51.905 --> 00:24:55.625
Okay? Six,
648
00:24:55.925 --> 00:24:57.065
six runs through the whole track.
649
00:24:58.275 --> 00:25:01.185
Max's best sector one, his best sector two
650
00:25:01.245 --> 00:25:05.065
and his best sector three all came on the same lap
651
00:25:05.165 --> 00:25:06.505
and it was his last one.
652
00:25:07.735 --> 00:25:09.105
That is so hard to do.
653
00:25:10.295 --> 00:25:12.825
Like if you've got two new sets of tires back to back,
654
00:25:12.935 --> 00:25:14.985
there's a good chance you're gonna find ways to improve
655
00:25:15.005 --> 00:25:17.705
and at least two of the three sectors kind of thing, right?
656
00:25:18.445 --> 00:25:22.745
By your third run, it's, it's, you know, it's law
657
00:25:22.745 --> 00:25:23.785
of diminishing returns, right?
658
00:25:23.785 --> 00:25:26.305
Unless you've made a mistake somewhere like it's small
659
00:25:26.305 --> 00:25:29.065
that you're by your fourth, fifth, sixth run
660
00:25:29.485 --> 00:25:30.865
to keep finding pace
661
00:25:31.565 --> 00:25:35.545
and to not have a single sector not be your best.
662
00:25:36.325 --> 00:25:38.225
And none of them were the best sectors.
663
00:25:38.695 --> 00:25:39.785
They weren't, none of them were
664
00:25:39.785 --> 00:25:41.065
purple, all of them were green.
665
00:25:42.805 --> 00:25:44.065
He just put it together man.
666
00:25:44.065 --> 00:25:46.345
And like at that track, qualifying as the race, as soon
667
00:25:46.345 --> 00:25:48.145
as he gets through, turn one and first game over.
668
00:25:48.685 --> 00:25:53.185
And he should have been third at best, probably fifth.
669
00:25:54.205 --> 00:25:57.305
And he qualified poll and won the race. Unbelievable.
670
00:25:57.495 --> 00:25:58.745
Well it was what was amazing.
671
00:25:58.845 --> 00:26:01.425
So I was watching qualifying a little tape delayed.
672
00:26:01.645 --> 00:26:05.575
Um, but I was, I, I made sure
673
00:26:05.645 --> 00:26:07.495
that I didn't look at any sort of social media
674
00:26:07.795 --> 00:26:11.215
and so I was truly shocked when the result happened.
675
00:26:11.755 --> 00:26:13.695
But I remember specifically,
676
00:26:13.715 --> 00:26:16.575
and this is a weird, like you would only really notice this
677
00:26:17.115 --> 00:26:18.455
if you're a racing driver.
678
00:26:18.915 --> 00:26:21.615
Um, but I was kind of falling along in his lap
679
00:26:21.615 --> 00:26:23.215
and there was nothing that really wowed me.
680
00:26:23.215 --> 00:26:25.495
Like I wasn't that stunned by it.
681
00:26:25.495 --> 00:26:27.175
And as you say, like there was nothing in there
682
00:26:27.175 --> 00:26:28.495
that was like the best
683
00:26:28.495 --> 00:26:30.375
that we had seen throughout qualifying.
684
00:26:31.715 --> 00:26:36.595
But his, his chacan was so good, dude.
685
00:26:36.625 --> 00:26:39.075
Like I, from the outside you looked at
686
00:26:39.075 --> 00:26:40.755
where he hit the brakes and I was like, ah,
687
00:26:40.755 --> 00:26:43.260
there's no chance that there's no chance he's making
688
00:26:43.505 --> 00:26:44.685
the, the first curb.
689
00:26:45.225 --> 00:26:47.165
And not only did he like make the first curb,
690
00:26:47.265 --> 00:26:50.725
he like wrapped it around to such a, a way
691
00:26:50.725 --> 00:26:52.085
that like the added to the car
692
00:26:52.085 --> 00:26:53.605
and the trajectory for the second one.
693
00:26:53.605 --> 00:26:54.925
Like, he barely had to turn the wheel
694
00:26:55.585 --> 00:26:59.925
and it was just like how he was able to just, it was almost,
695
00:27:00.265 --> 00:27:02.845
it was almost a willpower s thing.
696
00:27:03.475 --> 00:27:05.325
He's known for this, especially at St.
697
00:27:05.325 --> 00:27:08.085
Pete turn 10 coming to the alt start finish line.
698
00:27:08.395 --> 00:27:09.765
Like he just throws caution
699
00:27:09.825 --> 00:27:12.445
to the wind in the last like breaking zone and just ships it
700
00:27:12.445 --> 00:27:13.925
and kind of prays and hopes it happens
701
00:27:14.025 --> 00:27:17.525
and will like ends lapse and gets poles right.
702
00:27:17.635 --> 00:27:20.565
This reminded me of something like that where Max was like,
703
00:27:21.145 --> 00:27:22.445
I'm probably pretty <inaudible> here,
704
00:27:22.645 --> 00:27:23.805
I gotta just go for it.
705
00:27:23.985 --> 00:27:26.765
And he said, he even said like when he was walking
706
00:27:26.765 --> 00:27:29.005
through the lap, that like he felt he left a little bit on
707
00:27:29.005 --> 00:27:30.485
the table in the chicane
708
00:27:30.485 --> 00:27:33.485
and then I saw some GPS data overlays of what he did.
709
00:27:33.485 --> 00:27:35.565
Dude, he out broke Lando by like 25 feet.
710
00:27:35.875 --> 00:27:37.165
Like it's unbelievable.
711
00:27:37.165 --> 00:27:38.805
It's insane. And,
712
00:27:38.925 --> 00:27:41.605
and like what's what's tough for Lando is
713
00:27:41.795 --> 00:27:44.525
that was Lando was the king of sector three,
714
00:27:44.695 --> 00:27:45.805
which is the chicane.
715
00:27:45.995 --> 00:27:47.805
It's essentially one corner, it's the chica
716
00:27:48.345 --> 00:27:51.885
and he was the king of sector three all weekend long.
717
00:27:52.305 --> 00:27:54.325
And even Oscar was quicker than him in sector three.
718
00:27:54.385 --> 00:27:56.085
So he just like, he just hesitated.
719
00:27:56.085 --> 00:27:59.085
He just was on a good lap and he didn't wanna overdo it.
720
00:27:59.245 --> 00:28:00.245
'cause we've all been there too. Well he
721
00:28:00.245 --> 00:28:01.245
Was on a good lap.
722
00:28:01.245 --> 00:28:01.725
He didn't wanna blow it. It's so easy
723
00:28:01.725 --> 00:28:02.205
To do. Yeah.
724
00:28:02.205 --> 00:28:03.965
Oh, a hundred
Percent. It's so easy to do.
725
00:28:04.395 --> 00:28:05.565
It's like you see the, the lap
726
00:28:05.565 --> 00:28:06.605
time going in the right direction.
727
00:28:06.605 --> 00:28:07.805
You get to the last corner, you're like, oh,
728
00:28:07.805 --> 00:28:09.005
I can make up even more time here.
729
00:28:09.005 --> 00:28:10.765
And then you totally bone it and you look like an idiot.
730
00:28:11.225 --> 00:28:12.405
So he, he went the other way.
731
00:28:12.465 --> 00:28:15.125
He like was a bit reserved and it costs
732
00:28:15.155 --> 00:28:16.155
Like I'm two 10th up.
733
00:28:16.355 --> 00:28:18.325
Like, that should be good. Yeah,
734
00:28:18.675 --> 00:28:22.205
that sounds like such a head game of just, it's well it's,
735
00:28:22.205 --> 00:28:25.045
and it's why, it's why it's why Max is the best.
736
00:28:25.345 --> 00:28:28.565
And like he even said it again in his interview, similar
737
00:28:28.625 --> 00:28:30.005
to the point James was alluding to.
738
00:28:30.005 --> 00:28:33.405
He was like, I know that our car's not that good,
739
00:28:33.665 --> 00:28:35.325
but I know I'm gonna make less mistakes
740
00:28:35.325 --> 00:28:36.525
than every single other person.
741
00:28:36.785 --> 00:28:38.365
So he is like, as long as I have a car
742
00:28:38.365 --> 00:28:42.245
that's somewhere in some window at some point,
743
00:28:42.555 --> 00:28:44.565
like I will just drive better than everyone else
744
00:28:44.705 --> 00:28:45.885
and like I'll make the difference.
745
00:28:45.885 --> 00:28:47.085
And he just flat out said it and he
746
00:28:47.285 --> 00:28:48.485
continues to do it. So you can't really argue with
747
00:28:48.485 --> 00:28:49.485
It.
748
00:28:49.485 --> 00:28:50.325
That's the problem, right? When you've got like,
749
00:28:50.355 --> 00:28:51.525
even Lando got outta the car
750
00:28:51.525 --> 00:28:53.645
and was like, you gotta be kidding me.
751
00:28:53.875 --> 00:28:56.565
Yeah, yeah. Okay. I guess I get it.
752
00:28:56.625 --> 00:29:00.005
You know Fernando, Fernando Alonzo, who is the guy that
753
00:29:00.555 --> 00:29:03.005
when you pull drivers, heard of him,
754
00:29:03.135 --> 00:29:06.445
Heard of him
Globally, it doesn't matter what series,
755
00:29:07.295 --> 00:29:09.285
gimme your top three racing drivers
756
00:29:09.425 --> 00:29:12.125
of any kind on the planet alive today.
757
00:29:13.005 --> 00:29:17.525
I bet Alonzo's on 95% of drivers top three.
758
00:29:17.675 --> 00:29:19.565
Like he's the guy top other
759
00:29:19.565 --> 00:29:20.565
Drivers top five.
760
00:29:20.565 --> 00:29:22.085
Okay. Top five. Top five,
761
00:29:23.275 --> 00:29:25.325
Five years ago, six years ago, top three.
762
00:29:25.625 --> 00:29:28.965
But yes, sure. He's, he's massively respected.
763
00:29:29.185 --> 00:29:30.525
And when he gets out of the car
764
00:29:30.545 --> 00:29:32.725
and he's a, he's a confident man
765
00:29:32.945 --> 00:29:34.725
as well and he gets outta the car.
766
00:29:34.725 --> 00:29:37.445
Mm-hmm . And he was just like, nobody, nobody can do that.
767
00:29:37.825 --> 00:29:41.845
Nobody can do what he did. And like, that was for me.
768
00:29:41.845 --> 00:29:43.605
Like, he was laughing, he was smiling.
769
00:29:43.605 --> 00:29:45.525
He's like, yeah man, no chance.
770
00:29:45.675 --> 00:29:48.405
Like we don't have any chance against this guy right now.
771
00:29:48.915 --> 00:29:51.765
It's wild. It was, it was, it was cool to watch, honestly.
772
00:29:51.765 --> 00:29:53.085
Like, it was really, really impressive.
773
00:29:53.305 --> 00:29:54.885
And even though it was a boring race, the fact
774
00:29:54.885 --> 00:29:57.325
that all three of the like 1, 2, 3 were all within four
775
00:29:57.325 --> 00:29:59.365
seconds of the entire grum pri
776
00:30:00.115 --> 00:30:02.325
because the McLaren were quicker.
777
00:30:02.325 --> 00:30:04.285
They just couldn't get around 'em. Right? Yeah, yeah.
778
00:30:04.625 --> 00:30:06.445
Max had a great line. He was like, yeah, if I was in
779
00:30:06.445 --> 00:30:07.445
that car, you wouldn't have seen me
780
00:30:08.395 --> 00:30:09.395
Also probably true.
781
00:30:09.505 --> 00:30:10.725
And like, you can't argue it.
782
00:30:10.825 --> 00:30:12.845
You, it's like even those guys are like, yeah.
783
00:30:13.585 --> 00:30:16.245
Um, it was funny 'cause like we got through turn one
784
00:30:16.265 --> 00:30:18.285
and I jokingly like, oh that was a good race
785
00:30:19.065 --> 00:30:20.485
to like the room where we were watching.
786
00:30:20.485 --> 00:30:23.045
Literally there was one position change in the top
787
00:30:23.045 --> 00:30:24.085
10 from there on
788
00:30:24.085 --> 00:30:25.085
out,
.
789
00:30:25.085 --> 00:30:26.645
It was pretty brutal. Pretty brutal. It was pretty bad.
790
00:30:26.845 --> 00:30:28.565
I just, I think we all need to, there's
791
00:30:28.565 --> 00:30:31.005
so much conversation going around about Red Bull,
792
00:30:31.005 --> 00:30:35.245
this Red Bull that whatever, whatever Isaac Cajar had jar,
793
00:30:35.325 --> 00:30:36.365
I don't know how to say his name.
794
00:30:36.905 --> 00:30:38.445
Um, bravo to him
795
00:30:38.445 --> 00:30:42.645
because he is clearly insanely fast and talented
796
00:30:42.985 --> 00:30:44.725
and also has a massive <inaudible>.
797
00:30:45.545 --> 00:30:49.445
So like that's just, he's winning in all phases of life.
798
00:30:49.555 --> 00:30:51.045
Just and his career. It's really going
799
00:30:51.185 --> 00:30:52.185
All for him.
800
00:30:52.185 --> 00:30:55.885
Um, what? Yeah,
Just big man.
801
00:30:56.155 --> 00:31:01.005
Huge
. How did we come by this information? Just
802
00:31:01.005 --> 00:31:02.005
Look it up Tim.
803
00:31:02.005 --> 00:31:03.405
Essentially all but said it. Yeah.
804
00:31:03.905 --> 00:31:05.845
Um, yeah, so moving right along.
805
00:31:05.935 --> 00:31:07.965
Tim's gonna now lose sleep over that one.
806
00:31:08.435 --> 00:31:10.845
Well I just want him to start Googling that. Yeah,
807
00:31:11.465 --> 00:31:12.465
I'm
Gonna Google
808
00:31:12.465 --> 00:31:13.195
That.
809
00:31:13.195 --> 00:31:13.525
Hedge our big .
810
00:31:15.705 --> 00:31:18.165
Um, did you hear about the science fine?
811
00:31:18.665 --> 00:31:20.645
The what?
Say that 10 times fat? Yeah.
812
00:31:20.835 --> 00:31:22.645
Science fine Science. Fine sign's fine.
813
00:31:23.355 --> 00:31:26.565
Like Carlos signs.
Yeah. Yeah. He got fined.
814
00:31:27.195 --> 00:31:28.805
Okay. No, before that.
Okay.
815
00:31:29.425 --> 00:31:31.965
Did he curse? So
No, even,
816
00:31:31.995 --> 00:31:33.725
this is even worse. This is even, this is,
817
00:31:33.725 --> 00:31:35.045
Oh this stink. Right? This
818
00:31:35.045 --> 00:31:36.605
Is even dumber.
819
00:31:36.835 --> 00:31:38.405
Even dumber. The fact
820
00:31:38.405 --> 00:31:40.405
that the FIA can get away with this is insane.
821
00:31:40.825 --> 00:31:45.125
So it's in the like protocols for F1 drivers that you have
822
00:31:45.125 --> 00:31:46.845
to be present at the front of the grid for the playing
823
00:31:46.845 --> 00:31:50.285
of the, the national anthem of the host country fair.
824
00:31:51.185 --> 00:31:54.005
Carlos was sick, he had like some stomach bug or something.
825
00:31:54.155 --> 00:31:58.685
Okay. Hmm. Was with the FIA medical staff
826
00:31:59.465 --> 00:32:01.685
who acknowledged he had a legitimate problem
827
00:32:02.705 --> 00:32:06.125
and so he was getting treated for something in some capacity
828
00:32:06.625 --> 00:32:09.165
and was late arriving for the anthem.
829
00:32:10.005 --> 00:32:12.765
I think still made at least the end of it.
830
00:32:12.765 --> 00:32:13.925
Maybe he didn't, doesn't matter,
831
00:32:14.825 --> 00:32:17.245
had a medical reason to not be there.
832
00:32:17.385 --> 00:32:19.565
And they find him 20,000 euro
833
00:32:20.225 --> 00:32:21.965
for like breaking protocol and procedure.
834
00:32:22.355 --> 00:32:24.245
They advice, I mean,
Doesn't,
835
00:32:24.275 --> 00:32:25.725
that doesn't surprise me at all.
836
00:32:25.725 --> 00:32:29.525
Like it's, yeah, it is a joke, but it doesn't surprise me.
837
00:32:30.085 --> 00:32:31.565
I, it makes
Me, what, what's the phrase?
838
00:32:31.785 --> 00:32:36.485
I'm, I'm disappointed. Not surprised. Mm. Mm-hmm . . Yeah.
839
00:32:37.155 --> 00:32:38.925
Yeah. I'm not mad, I'm disappointed.
840
00:32:39.705 --> 00:32:42.245
Um, I thought that was outta control,
841
00:32:42.305 --> 00:32:45.045
but anyway, vie either here, neither here nor there.
842
00:32:45.145 --> 00:32:48.125
So yes, Japan was great. Great vacation with Becky.
843
00:32:48.655 --> 00:32:49.685
Great to catch up
844
00:32:49.685 --> 00:32:51.325
with our friends from Singapore, Matt and Sid.
845
00:32:51.635 --> 00:32:54.325
Awesome race. Shout out to Stu Mo from Haas,
846
00:32:54.325 --> 00:32:55.965
who got them all sorted with passes
847
00:32:56.145 --> 00:32:57.725
and took care of them during the weekend.
848
00:32:58.745 --> 00:33:02.045
And Max is phenomenal. So we move on.
849
00:33:02.045 --> 00:33:03.365
Nothing going on this weekend.
850
00:33:03.745 --> 00:33:06.725
No. I had one small thing flying home
851
00:33:06.835 --> 00:33:08.205
that I wanna touch on though.
852
00:33:08.745 --> 00:33:13.245
So this is just, this is just a rant.
853
00:33:13.245 --> 00:33:15.005
This is not gonna mean anything to either of you
854
00:33:15.005 --> 00:33:16.165
or anybody listening, but
855
00:33:16.165 --> 00:33:17.405
I just have to get it off. <crosstalk> my
856
00:33:17.405 --> 00:33:18.645
Checkout then
Me.
857
00:33:18.675 --> 00:33:20.165
Yeah, you can go to the bathroom, whatever.
858
00:33:20.945 --> 00:33:25.485
So for some reason as a Canadian,
859
00:33:26.925 --> 00:33:28.745
and this has always been the case, this is not new.
860
00:33:29.645 --> 00:33:30.945
The type of visa that I have.
861
00:33:31.865 --> 00:33:33.545
Normally if you get a US visa, like a lot
862
00:33:33.545 --> 00:33:37.345
of times it's like a, it's like a full page sized sticker
863
00:33:37.375 --> 00:33:40.465
that goes in your passport and it has all your picture
864
00:33:40.685 --> 00:33:42.625
and all your, it looks like another passport page.
865
00:33:42.625 --> 00:33:46.825
Almost like, but it's got us visa stuff all over it, right?
866
00:33:46.825 --> 00:33:48.145
Mm-hmm . Or you've got a green card
867
00:33:48.245 --> 00:33:50.385
or you get a resident card if you're a resident.
868
00:33:50.685 --> 00:33:52.785
The particular visa that I've got green card
869
00:33:52.785 --> 00:33:54.065
For when you're green, right?
870
00:33:54.235 --> 00:33:55.505
Right. Yep. If you're green, if you're
871
00:33:55.505 --> 00:33:57.065
not feeling well, you get a green card. Still
872
00:33:57.065 --> 00:33:58.665
Get fined by the FIA. But yeah,
873
00:33:59.125 --> 00:34:00.125
of course.
874
00:34:00.125 --> 00:34:01.105
Yeah, yeah, yeah. Absolutely. Absolutely.
875
00:34:01.805 --> 00:34:04.585
Um, yeah, I, I've, I've had a backlog
876
00:34:04.585 --> 00:34:07.585
of fines from 2015 when I missed a lot of pre-race anthems.
877
00:34:07.785 --> 00:34:11.385
'cause I was young in hospital trying to recover blood.
878
00:34:11.825 --> 00:34:14.345
I don't for some reason my visa in a Canadian passport.
879
00:34:14.445 --> 00:34:17.105
You don't get that visa sticker. Okay.
880
00:34:17.725 --> 00:34:18.905
You just have a piece of paper
881
00:34:20.285 --> 00:34:22.065
and you have to carry that piece
882
00:34:22.065 --> 00:34:23.265
of paper around with you always.
883
00:34:23.505 --> 00:34:25.105
'cause it has to, if somebody wants
884
00:34:25.105 --> 00:34:26.305
to see it, you gotta be able to show it.
885
00:34:26.365 --> 00:34:27.585
So I have to carry this very
886
00:34:27.585 --> 00:34:29.385
important document around with me everywhere. Like
887
00:34:29.385 --> 00:34:30.865
A real document. Yeah. That
888
00:34:30.865 --> 00:34:32.145
You would need like a real document.
889
00:34:32.175 --> 00:34:33.705
Yeah. Right. Not one that Siri is gonna
890
00:34:33.705 --> 00:34:34.825
read to me over my Kindle.
891
00:34:34.955 --> 00:34:39.945
Right. So when I was checking into the
892
00:34:39.945 --> 00:34:44.125
airport in Japan, a Japanese airline,
893
00:34:44.985 --> 00:34:48.925
you land in the States and you clear customs in the States.
894
00:34:49.265 --> 00:34:50.605
But when I check into Japan,
895
00:34:50.605 --> 00:34:52.205
they're like, do you live in the us?
896
00:34:52.905 --> 00:34:54.525
And I was like, yes I do. And
897
00:34:54.525 --> 00:34:55.605
they're like, do you have a visa?
898
00:34:56.005 --> 00:34:58.045
I said, yes, I do. They're like,
899
00:34:58.765 --> 00:35:00.045
I don't see it in your passport.
900
00:35:00.465 --> 00:35:03.365
I'm like, 'cause it's not, well where is it?
901
00:35:03.555 --> 00:35:05.325
It's right here. And I present the piece of paper.
902
00:35:05.325 --> 00:35:08.405
They're like, what's this? This is my visa.
903
00:35:09.585 --> 00:35:13.485
Why isn't it in the passport? Ask us customs. I don't know.
904
00:35:14.115 --> 00:35:16.685
I've had this conversation half a dozen times over the last
905
00:35:16.685 --> 00:35:19.405
15 years where when checking into an airport in a foreign
906
00:35:19.405 --> 00:35:21.565
country, they're like, well, you can't live in the States.
907
00:35:22.225 --> 00:35:25.365
And I just wanna be like, respectfully, yes I can.
908
00:35:26.585 --> 00:35:30.045
You don't know. And it's not your country. Why do you care?
909
00:35:30.425 --> 00:35:32.845
Let me on the plane. If they wanna kick me out when I get
910
00:35:32.845 --> 00:35:34.045
there, that's my problem.
911
00:35:34.985 --> 00:35:37.725
Why do the check-in desks in a foreign country?
912
00:35:38.365 --> 00:35:40.205
I don't think No, because it's not their problem.
913
00:35:40.625 --> 00:35:43.525
It is their problem. Because they have to then give a seat
914
00:35:43.825 --> 00:35:46.525
to your immigrant ass back to the country.
915
00:35:47.785 --> 00:35:48.925
Do they is I've always heard that
916
00:35:48.925 --> 00:35:50.045
It has to be on the same airline.
917
00:35:50.605 --> 00:35:52.365
I believe so.
It's like I I know that that's like,
918
00:35:52.435 --> 00:35:53.525
they like kick you out.
919
00:35:53.525 --> 00:35:55.845
Well, I've heard stories where like when they deny you,
920
00:35:55.845 --> 00:35:58.125
they immediately ask for your credit card and they swipe
921
00:35:58.125 --> 00:35:59.925
and buy you a ticket outta here.
922
00:36:00.275 --> 00:36:02.725
Well, okay, fine if you have the funds,
923
00:36:03.065 --> 00:36:06.165
but like there's some people that can't afford $700 on a
924
00:36:06.165 --> 00:36:07.965
round trip back to wherever. When
925
00:36:08.865 --> 00:36:10.045
Do you have to go back to your,
926
00:36:10.105 --> 00:36:11.725
the country you started the trip
927
00:36:11.725 --> 00:36:13.085
in? 'cause like if they, I got
928
00:36:13.105 --> 00:36:14.085
Denied. You're not just gonna say,
929
00:36:14.385 --> 00:36:15.765
Can I not go back to Canada? Couldn't
930
00:36:15.765 --> 00:36:17.125
He just go to Canada? Yeah. This
931
00:36:17.125 --> 00:36:18.565
Is what I know. I'm sure there is a reason
932
00:36:18.665 --> 00:36:21.765
And I think, I think, I think for you in your case, yes.
933
00:36:21.895 --> 00:36:25.925
Let's say a Japanese person who was a Japanese citizen
934
00:36:26.225 --> 00:36:29.245
who flew to America and didn't have the right documents.
935
00:36:29.305 --> 00:36:31.565
He would or she would then be sent back
936
00:36:31.585 --> 00:36:33.925
to Japan on the same flight. Yeah, no,
937
00:36:33.925 --> 00:36:34.925
I looked it up.
938
00:36:34.925 --> 00:36:36.405
He's right. It it, it's the responsibility
939
00:36:36.405 --> 00:36:38.325
of the airline that flew you there.
940
00:36:38.345 --> 00:36:39.925
And they will return you to the country
941
00:36:39.925 --> 00:36:41.565
that you're coming from on the next flight.
942
00:36:41.565 --> 00:36:43.845
So that's why, because they don't wanna, that's why, okay,
943
00:36:43.975 --> 00:36:45.445
spend a thousand dollars, get
944
00:36:45.445 --> 00:36:46.605
your ass back to where you're supposed to be.
945
00:36:46.955 --> 00:36:49.405
Also forget the, the nuisance of it.
946
00:36:49.515 --> 00:36:52.925
Like that's a, such a big responsibility that you have
947
00:36:52.925 --> 00:36:54.045
to carry around an eight
948
00:36:54.045 --> 00:36:56.765
and a half by 11 piece of white paper at all times.
949
00:36:56.765 --> 00:36:59.005
Hundred percent. And keep it protective if you And not
950
00:36:59.005 --> 00:37:00.125
crinkled and Yeah, yeah, yeah.
951
00:37:00.125 --> 00:37:01.965
Like I horrible. We're all
952
00:37:01.965 --> 00:37:03.405
Given, we're all given a card at
953
00:37:03.405 --> 00:37:04.685
birth and they're like, don't lose it.
954
00:37:04.685 --> 00:37:07.245
Can't laminate it. Good luck. Yes'. So,
955
00:37:07.865 --> 00:37:08.865
So true man.
956
00:37:08.865 --> 00:37:10.045
But you don't have to carry that around
957
00:37:10.045 --> 00:37:11.285
with you every time you travel.
958
00:37:11.285 --> 00:37:13.525
Right? You just gotta remember the number. That's
959
00:37:13.525 --> 00:37:15.125
The most important
Part. 'cause sometimes you need it.
960
00:37:15.125 --> 00:37:17.765
What do you need it for? I have never once needed it.
961
00:37:18.245 --> 00:37:19.645
I feel like I've needed it for something,
962
00:37:20.065 --> 00:37:21.285
For anything in my life
Right now.
963
00:37:21.545 --> 00:37:23.565
You know what I've, you know what I've never looked into
964
00:37:24.465 --> 00:37:28.885
is if I have to like apply for a permanent resident card
965
00:37:29.425 --> 00:37:31.565
or 'cause like they never gave me one.
966
00:37:31.765 --> 00:37:33.245
I maybe there's way for, for me,
967
00:37:33.645 --> 00:37:35.125
Actually should maybe talk about Long Beach.
968
00:37:36.835 --> 00:37:38.845
Okay. All right.
969
00:37:38.985 --> 00:37:40.925
I'm gonna look into that because maybe I can solve my own
970
00:37:40.925 --> 00:37:41.645
problem here by being
971
00:37:41.645 --> 00:37:43.045
proactive. Anyway. Long Beach weekend.
972
00:37:43.045 --> 00:37:44.445
Well, anyways, anyways, guys. Um,
973
00:37:45.075 --> 00:37:46.165
long Beach is this weekend.
974
00:37:46.195 --> 00:37:49.525
Good chat. It is on, uh, Fox. It is.
975
00:37:49.585 --> 00:37:51.565
Um, listen, there was a,
976
00:37:52.235 --> 00:37:54.525
there's a reminder from Mindy Car Marketing
977
00:37:54.525 --> 00:37:57.965
that I'm gonna pass along to all of our listeners.
978
00:37:58.305 --> 00:37:59.725
The masters is also this weekend
979
00:38:00.305 --> 00:38:01.605
we get the masters a big deal.
980
00:38:02.065 --> 00:38:03.165
We get, we get that.
981
00:38:03.235 --> 00:38:05.045
It's a, it's a big event that people look forward
982
00:38:05.365 --> 00:38:06.925
to each year and that's totally fine.
983
00:38:07.505 --> 00:38:08.605
All that we ask is
984
00:38:08.635 --> 00:38:11.765
that you also have IndyCar race on, on another tv.
985
00:38:12.825 --> 00:38:14.325
It in my mind, I don't really care.
986
00:38:14.405 --> 00:38:15.765
I don't really care if you're watching it or not.
987
00:38:15.915 --> 00:38:18.165
Just put it on a TV in a bedroom. I do.
988
00:38:18.265 --> 00:38:20.885
In a, in a bar in a living room. Can I,
989
00:38:20.905 --> 00:38:22.245
I'm just gonna, I'm gonna give an alternate,
990
00:38:22.305 --> 00:38:24.685
I'm gonna give an alternate, um, uh, strategy
991
00:38:24.705 --> 00:38:27.005
for this is the masters is what?
992
00:38:27.115 --> 00:38:29.565
It's four days, right? It's like Thursday, Friday, Saturday,
993
00:38:29.565 --> 00:38:30.925
Sunday, six hours a day.
994
00:38:31.295 --> 00:38:35.125
Right. If you're watching all of that, you suck.
995
00:38:35.745 --> 00:38:36.965
You, you don't, that's
996
00:38:36.965 --> 00:38:38.445
that's not a way to live your life. No, but
997
00:38:38.535 --> 00:38:39.445
Those, but James. James.
998
00:38:39.825 --> 00:38:42.085
But
James. But James. But James. But James. James.
999
00:38:42.215 --> 00:38:44.645
James. Here's, here's the argument
1000
00:38:44.645 --> 00:38:45.725
that people are gonna have against you.
1001
00:38:45.825 --> 00:38:48.245
And all I'm saying is watch whatever you wanna watch.
1002
00:38:48.355 --> 00:38:50.125
It's free country. It's America. Do what you want.
1003
00:38:50.195 --> 00:38:51.205
Just put it on a tv.
1004
00:38:51.625 --> 00:38:54.245
You're, if they're gonna invest that amount of time,
1005
00:38:54.355 --> 00:38:55.885
they're gonna watch the end.
1006
00:38:56.505 --> 00:38:57.525
I'm not encouraging
1007
00:38:57.525 --> 00:38:59.165
That Anyone watch
Going for four days?
1008
00:38:59.625 --> 00:39:01.645
No. The, the leaders tee off
1009
00:39:02.105 --> 00:39:05.085
for the end when we go green. It's really unfortunate.
1010
00:39:05.085 --> 00:39:06.445
Perfect. That's perfect.
1011
00:39:06.725 --> 00:39:09.405
'cause a round of golf takes like 76 hours. So just
1012
00:39:09.625 --> 00:39:10.765
Tee off for the, watch the tee off.
1013
00:39:11.195 --> 00:39:12.805
Come back to the race and for
1014
00:39:12.805 --> 00:39:13.925
The final, have to watch the, for the
1015
00:39:13.925 --> 00:39:15.005
final, for the final holes.
1016
00:39:16.185 --> 00:39:17.805
Oh,
I thought you meant not tee off the start the game.
1017
00:39:17.805 --> 00:39:20.885
Start of the round. No, no. Oh no. Okay.
1018
00:39:21.185 --> 00:39:22.185
As
Alex said, the end to the
1019
00:39:22.185 --> 00:39:24.245
End, put it on another tv, anywhere in the house
1020
00:39:24.385 --> 00:39:25.385
On your phone.
1021
00:39:25.385 --> 00:39:26.365
Uh, that would be be super helpful.
1022
00:39:26.945 --> 00:39:28.445
Be nice. Thanks.
Thank you for watching.
1023
00:39:29.065 --> 00:39:30.685
Um, and then, and then if we can,
1024
00:39:30.705 --> 00:39:32.805
if we can ask a really big, you know mm-hmm.
1025
00:39:32.865 --> 00:39:35.605
Uh, thing that would be tune in to, to barber,
1026
00:39:35.865 --> 00:39:37.005
uh, two weeks from now.
1027
00:39:37.005 --> 00:39:38.845
That would, that would be sweet. You could make up for it.
1028
00:39:39.085 --> 00:39:40.725
'cause honestly, if you love the masters,
1029
00:39:40.905 --> 00:39:42.645
you'll love the Augusta Motorsports.
1030
00:39:42.825 --> 00:39:44.365
The Augusta of Motor Sports. Yep.
1031
00:39:44.365 --> 00:39:45.365
That checks out
Exactly right.
1032
00:39:45.365 --> 00:39:47.085
There's, there's like the Venn diagram.
1033
00:39:47.225 --> 00:39:48.725
People who love golf
1034
00:39:48.785 --> 00:39:50.605
and people who love giant statues
1035
00:39:50.605 --> 00:39:52.205
of spiders is basically a circle.
1036
00:39:52.545 --> 00:39:53.605
So it works out. It's
1037
00:39:53.635 --> 00:39:54.635
Wild.
1038
00:39:54.635 --> 00:39:57.045
Yeah. A how you feel about Long Beach?
1039
00:39:57.185 --> 00:39:58.885
Uh, really good. I think we're gonna win.
1040
00:39:58.985 --> 00:40:00.445
That's all I wanna say. I
1041
00:40:00.445 --> 00:40:01.445
Love that.
1042
00:40:01.645 --> 00:40:04.165
I mean, I love that you've won it twice. Mm-hmm .
1043
00:40:04.505 --> 00:40:06.005
You actually, no, but can you make it not
1044
00:40:06.005 --> 00:40:08.165
as boring as the last time? 'cause that was,
1045
00:40:08.365 --> 00:40:09.365
I don't think so.
1046
00:40:09.365 --> 00:40:10.525
I'll take, I'll take a boring win
1047
00:40:10.685 --> 00:40:11.885
'cause it'll be a really fun night, .
1048
00:40:12.985 --> 00:40:13.985
That's
1049
00:40:15.195 --> 00:40:16.685
Finally I'm gonna run home. Tough
1050
00:40:16.685 --> 00:40:17.685
Dolphin.
1051
00:40:17.685 --> 00:40:18.885
Will we finally do the Tough Dolphin tattoos?
1052
00:40:18.885 --> 00:40:20.685
If you win, getting the hell out of there.
1053
00:40:21.255 --> 00:40:22.965
We'll see Tim, we we'll see.
1054
00:40:23.385 --> 00:40:25.645
Uh, but no, I am, I love Long Beach.
1055
00:40:26.025 --> 00:40:28.725
We, we always wax on about this event.
1056
00:40:28.985 --> 00:40:30.765
Um, but it's, it's for real
1057
00:40:30.765 --> 00:40:34.485
because it is the, it's the best one outside the Indy 500.
1058
00:40:34.755 --> 00:40:37.565
It's the 50th anniversary of, um,
1059
00:40:37.865 --> 00:40:39.285
the Accor Grand Prix of Long Beach.
1060
00:40:39.355 --> 00:40:41.405
There's a huge amount of history there.
1061
00:40:41.635 --> 00:40:43.885
It's always such a, an amazing event
1062
00:40:43.885 --> 00:40:45.485
because there's so much going on.
1063
00:40:45.485 --> 00:40:47.805
But also the knowledge of the fans is incredible.
1064
00:40:47.905 --> 00:40:50.045
The turnout of the fans, even on a Friday is
1065
00:40:50.045 --> 00:40:51.725
always second to none.
1066
00:40:51.865 --> 00:40:53.445
So, um, we love going there.
1067
00:40:53.585 --> 00:40:56.405
I'm a little biased because it's a pseudo home race.
1068
00:40:56.665 --> 00:40:57.925
Um, but I, I think,
1069
00:40:58.805 --> 00:41:02.765
I think I am not in the minority when I say, um, it's one
1070
00:41:02.765 --> 00:41:04.605
of the, the highlight events on the calendar,
1071
00:41:04.745 --> 00:41:07.485
so can't wait, man. Very excited. Yeah.
1072
00:41:07.485 --> 00:41:09.445
After Indy, it's, it's the one, you know,
1073
00:41:09.585 --> 00:41:12.205
and the fact that it's an IndyCar MA doubleheader is always,
1074
00:41:12.665 --> 00:41:14.485
you know, a huge thing and very exciting.
1075
00:41:14.585 --> 00:41:17.285
And on that note, um, special note
1076
00:41:17.285 --> 00:41:18.965
and special shout out for Robbie Wickens,
1077
00:41:19.345 --> 00:41:23.405
who is gonna make his MSO WeatherTech debut this weekend,
1078
00:41:23.865 --> 00:41:26.765
moving his way up the Motorsports ladder once again.
1079
00:41:26.905 --> 00:41:30.245
So, very cool. A hand controlled Corvette, um,
1080
00:41:30.985 --> 00:41:32.405
is gonna be, uh, what he's driving.
1081
00:41:32.705 --> 00:41:34.125
I'm very excited to watch this.
1082
00:41:34.745 --> 00:41:38.565
And, um, yeah, M Race Saturday Indy Car Race Sunday.
1083
00:41:39.695 --> 00:41:42.645
Don't miss it guys. It's going be great.
1084
00:41:43.225 --> 00:41:47.365
Or if you miss it, put it on television anyways. Have it
1085
00:41:47.365 --> 00:41:48.245
On. Stream it on.
1086
00:41:48.245 --> 00:41:49.605
Just turn it on. Just turn it on.
1087
00:41:49.605 --> 00:41:51.005
That's all I'm asking. Stream it. Just turn
1088
00:41:51.005 --> 00:41:52.565
It on, stream it on your phone. Just, you know,
1089
00:41:53.125 --> 00:41:54.125
Breaking your neighbor house.
1090
00:41:54.125 --> 00:41:54.925
Turn it on their house too. Yeah,
1091
00:41:55.465 --> 00:41:57.125
But we encourage, we officially
1092
00:41:57.235 --> 00:41:58.885
encourage breaking and entering.
1093
00:41:59.665 --> 00:42:02.005
No, it's, it's breaking and entering. We're
1094
00:42:02.005 --> 00:42:03.005
Not gonna say that.
1095
00:42:03.005 --> 00:42:04.605
We're not gonna
Say that. Adding ambiance. Alright.
1096
00:42:04.605 --> 00:42:06.245
We don't, it's breaking. It's breaking and leaving.
1097
00:42:07.115 --> 00:42:08.485
It's breaking and leaving. Breaking and leaving.
1098
00:42:08.485 --> 00:42:09.685
You're in and out. That sounds in
1099
00:42:09.685 --> 00:42:10.685
And out.
1100
00:42:10.685 --> 00:42:10.765
It's not right, but
1101
00:42:10.765 --> 00:42:11.605
we're not gonna break anything. Think the
1102
00:42:11.685 --> 00:42:12.685
Breaking might be the problem.
1103
00:42:12.685 --> 00:42:15.125
Okay. We're we encourage entering and leaving .
1104
00:42:16.335 --> 00:42:17.605
We're gonna, we're
Gonna just

Gonna knock all
Ask, request and then leave.

There's no entering, there's no breaking,
1107
00:42:23.485 --> 00:42:25.205
