00:00:00.195 --> 00:00:01.445
This is off track.
2
00:00:02.655 --> 00:00:04.845
Hello. Welcome to the Off track Roski. Dude.
3
00:00:04.905 --> 00:00:07.045
Did you know that Barbara was in a different time zone
4
00:00:07.045 --> 00:00:08.125
than Indianapolis ?
5
00:00:09.845 --> 00:00:12.525
I didn't, until Tim called me in a mood
6
00:00:12.525 --> 00:00:14.885
being like, where are you? I'm like, I didn't think I
7
00:00:14.885 --> 00:00:16.685
Was in a,
I have 30 minutes.
8
00:00:17.425 --> 00:00:18.485
And he is like, no.
9
00:00:19.105 --> 00:00:21.645
And then Ed, who was riding in the car
10
00:00:21.645 --> 00:00:23.205
with me was like, you're on central time.
11
00:00:23.205 --> 00:00:24.205
And I was like, oh, .
12
00:00:27.265 --> 00:00:28.805
See, I did, I did forget that.
13
00:00:28.805 --> 00:00:30.725
Here's my version of it was the thing. I
14
00:00:30.725 --> 00:00:32.165
Thought you were just being a troll
15
00:00:32.165 --> 00:00:34.685
because you texted that you'd be free by six 15,
16
00:00:35.505 --> 00:00:36.765
but you texted that at six 30.
17
00:00:36.905 --> 00:00:38.525
At six 30. So
18
00:00:38.845 --> 00:00:40.645
I just thought you were well at, at what point, at
19
00:00:40.645 --> 00:00:42.525
what point James knew where I was at
20
00:00:42.525 --> 00:00:44.765
what point was he like, oh, he's in Barber.
21
00:00:45.025 --> 00:00:47.045
So clearly it's a different time zone.
22
00:00:47.865 --> 00:00:50.765
No, we always talk about Eastern time.
23
00:00:50.905 --> 00:00:52.365
So like, I know you're barber,
24
00:00:52.465 --> 00:00:54.365
but it's not my responsibility to,
25
00:00:54.385 --> 00:00:57.725
to like decipher your time zones.
26
00:00:58.225 --> 00:01:02.165
Oh, well , when I'm, when I'm looking at my phone
27
00:01:02.385 --> 00:01:03.725
and doing my scheduling
28
00:01:03.945 --> 00:01:05.925
and you guys are like, what time you come on?
29
00:01:05.925 --> 00:01:08.045
And I'm like, okay, by the time I get to the hotel, blah,
30
00:01:08.045 --> 00:01:09.245
blah, blah, it'll be blah, blah, blah.
31
00:01:09.635 --> 00:01:11.045
Alright, fine, I get it.
32
00:01:11.065 --> 00:01:12.405
But like, I'm also not in California.
33
00:01:12.665 --> 00:01:16.045
I'm not like, I forgot. I didn't know. I didn't know.
34
00:01:16.045 --> 00:01:17.245
That's right. That's all you to say.
35
00:01:17.545 --> 00:01:19.165
It doesn't have to be like a Well what?
36
00:01:19.165 --> 00:01:22.165
And you figure it's no. Yes, it's no big deal. It's fine.
37
00:01:22.825 --> 00:01:24.765
It happens. You are the one away working.
38
00:01:24.905 --> 00:01:27.325
So you're making the biggest sacrifice time-wise
39
00:01:27.345 --> 00:01:29.045
and you got the most to figure out.
40
00:01:29.105 --> 00:01:30.805
So it's fine. It's not a problem.
41
00:01:31.105 --> 00:01:31.965
How was your day at the track?
42
00:01:32.245 --> 00:01:33.165
'cause you were at the track today.
43
00:01:33.165 --> 00:01:34.965
You weren't in it in like on the track.
44
00:01:34.965 --> 00:01:36.805
Pointless, bro. Like, you know how got it.
45
00:01:36.885 --> 00:01:39.045
I mean, how pointless setup days are in the first place,
46
00:01:39.225 --> 00:01:40.765
let alone set up days for a test.
47
00:01:41.275 --> 00:01:43.125
Yeah. Yeah.
That's fair. Like it's, it's, so what
48
00:01:43.125 --> 00:01:44.645
Does a driver do in a setup day?
49
00:01:45.475 --> 00:01:46.965
Refreshes Instagram. I don't know. .
50
00:01:53.545 --> 00:01:56.885
All right.
That is so accurate. That is so good. I
51
00:01:56.885 --> 00:01:57.885
Neither am I wrong?
52
00:01:57.885 --> 00:02:01.005
No. Like, okay. In theory, in theory, um,
53
00:02:01.905 --> 00:02:05.805
you discuss, you know, the, well the test
54
00:02:05.805 --> 00:02:06.885
Plan here,
Here's the thing.
55
00:02:07.145 --> 00:02:08.285
Yes. You do all of these things.
56
00:02:08.285 --> 00:02:09.765
You, you talk about the test plan,
57
00:02:09.785 --> 00:02:12.285
you talk about things you're trying to accomplish.
58
00:02:12.585 --> 00:02:16.045
Uh, areas where track walk, last time you were here, no , no
59
00:02:16.815 --> 00:02:21.245
areas where last time that you were here, usually
60
00:02:22.775 --> 00:02:24.505
most of the time, not usually,
61
00:02:24.565 --> 00:02:27.105
but most of the time you've been to said track
62
00:02:27.135 --> 00:02:28.585
with the team that you're working with.
63
00:02:28.725 --> 00:02:30.745
So you like have very clear ideas of like
64
00:02:30.745 --> 00:02:31.985
where you were bad last year, why the
65
00:02:31.985 --> 00:02:33.105
car was <inaudible>, blah, blah, blah.
66
00:02:33.105 --> 00:02:35.785
Right. Areas that you have to focus on in this situation.
67
00:02:35.785 --> 00:02:37.585
Like in this case you have not, in this case I have not.
68
00:02:37.685 --> 00:02:39.745
So they're talking and telling me about areas
69
00:02:39.755 --> 00:02:40.865
where they were weak.
70
00:02:41.425 --> 00:02:43.225
I kind of share some experiences of things
71
00:02:43.225 --> 00:02:44.945
that have been beneficial and good in the past.
72
00:02:45.485 --> 00:02:47.585
All of it is with a huge asterisk
73
00:02:47.585 --> 00:02:49.265
because this is the first time that we're at Barber
74
00:02:49.295 --> 00:02:52.425
with a hybrid and a docker a new tire.
75
00:02:52.925 --> 00:02:55.585
So like, I, I mean, I don't know.
76
00:02:55.885 --> 00:02:58.985
So basically you, you talk in hyperbole about things
77
00:02:59.165 --> 00:03:00.325
that may or may not happen
78
00:03:00.585 --> 00:03:03.685
and then you, um, just realize
79
00:03:03.685 --> 00:03:05.925
that we're gonna have another meeting tomorrow morning
80
00:03:07.145 --> 00:03:08.295
going over the same stuff
81
00:03:08.675 --> 00:03:10.775
and it's still gonna end with the well,
82
00:03:10.785 --> 00:03:12.455
we're just gonna have to go out there and see what we got.
83
00:03:13.235 --> 00:03:14.615
That's, and let's also not forget
84
00:03:14.615 --> 00:03:17.015
that you've probably also already had a meeting back at the
85
00:03:17.015 --> 00:03:18.735
shop before you even left for
86
00:03:18.735 --> 00:03:20.895
Barber and multiple pre-event reports
87
00:03:20.995 --> 00:03:23.215
and conversations and same days. And Yes.
88
00:03:23.475 --> 00:03:27.015
So what you're saying is you should have just driven down
89
00:03:27.165 --> 00:03:29.975
this afternoon and gone to the track tomorrow morning
90
00:03:30.035 --> 00:03:33.495
for the first time because what did we accomplish?
91
00:03:33.835 --> 00:03:35.215
Is that what you're getting at? No,
92
00:03:35.285 --> 00:03:37.015
Because it's good to see the guys,
93
00:03:37.725 --> 00:03:39.015
it's good to shoot <inaudible>.
94
00:03:39.595 --> 00:03:43.975
Um, and it's good to show your, um, commitment
95
00:03:43.975 --> 00:03:45.935
because they're there, so you should be there.
96
00:03:46.475 --> 00:03:48.855
But like did, did do we actually
97
00:03:48.855 --> 00:03:51.135
as a group really accomplish anything on a day like today?
98
00:03:51.715 --> 00:03:55.215
Not really. Other than relationship building Yeah.
99
00:03:55.215 --> 00:03:57.535
Team building exercise. Right, exactly. Yeah. That's fair.
100
00:03:57.995 --> 00:03:59.615
Did you drive down or fly down?
101
00:04:00.285 --> 00:04:02.015
Flew me and Christian
Yourself?
102
00:04:02.475 --> 00:04:03.535
Yes.
Lovely.
103
00:04:03.695 --> 00:04:06.295
I bet Christian's like pretty stoked that he signed
104
00:04:06.295 --> 00:04:10.295
for a team who's teammate and team owner share a plane.
105
00:04:10.355 --> 00:04:11.935
So he just gets to fly everywhere with
106
00:04:11.935 --> 00:04:12.935
Them.
107
00:04:12.935 --> 00:04:15.015
Well, so we, we landed at the FBO
108
00:04:15.015 --> 00:04:16.575
and like the rental car was waiting.
109
00:04:16.875 --> 00:04:18.735
And so by the time we touched down
110
00:04:18.875 --> 00:04:21.495
to the time we were rolling, it was like seven minutes.
111
00:04:21.635 --> 00:04:24.655
And he was like, huh, that's a nice way
112
00:04:24.655 --> 00:04:26.055
of doing it. And we were like, yeah,
113
00:04:26.525 --> 00:04:28.535
Welcome to the program son. Yeah, pretty
114
00:04:28.535 --> 00:04:29.535
Good.
115
00:04:29.535 --> 00:04:32.615
I mean, he was a little, I think a little in awe
116
00:04:32.795 --> 00:04:36.815
and disappointed when we parked next to Pat's jet that's,
117
00:04:36.815 --> 00:04:39.375
you know, painted with his logo and his colors.
118
00:04:39.635 --> 00:04:40.895
But still, I don't think I knew
119
00:04:40.895 --> 00:04:41.895
Patto had a jet.
120
00:04:42.155 --> 00:04:44.095
Oh yeah. Oh yeah. Super. Got a jet.
121
00:04:44.125 --> 00:04:47.015
It's, it's actually too small of a jet for him now.
122
00:04:47.115 --> 00:04:49.575
So he is in the process of upgrading jets.
123
00:04:49.655 --> 00:04:52.735
I believe we've all been there. Yeah. Right, right. ,
124
00:04:53.845 --> 00:04:56.735
It's funny because I was speaking to Rojan about his jet
125
00:04:56.975 --> 00:04:59.855
'cause he upgraded from a twin prop to a jet.
126
00:05:00.175 --> 00:05:01.215
A premier. Yes.
127
00:05:01.495 --> 00:05:02.855
I think he's downgrading now.
128
00:05:03.135 --> 00:05:04.175
'cause he's realizing how
129
00:05:04.175 --> 00:05:07.015
insanely expensive they are to operate . Mm-hmm .
130
00:05:07.315 --> 00:05:08.415
But what's funny is like,
131
00:05:08.495 --> 00:05:10.975
I told him this throughout his entire buying process
132
00:05:11.115 --> 00:05:12.935
and he was like, no, it's not that bad.
133
00:05:12.935 --> 00:05:15.815
It's not that bad. And then you start writing these checks
134
00:05:15.815 --> 00:05:18.415
instead of it being, you know, every time you do it,
135
00:05:18.415 --> 00:05:20.055
$1,200, $1,600.
136
00:05:20.165 --> 00:05:21.975
It's like seven, nine
137
00:05:22.345 --> 00:05:25.255
Grand,
Grand, grand, grand.
138
00:05:26.205 --> 00:05:29.175
Yeah. That's too much. That's too many grands.
139
00:05:29.175 --> 00:05:31.415
That's about too many. Seven too many. Seven too
140
00:05:31.415 --> 00:05:32.415
Many.
141
00:05:32.415 --> 00:05:34.095
Way more grands than I've got to throw away on airplanes.
142
00:05:34.095 --> 00:05:37.775
Mm. Um, speaking of airplanes, I briefly,
143
00:05:38.495 --> 00:05:40.775
I shamefully neglected to tell
144
00:05:41.615 --> 00:05:43.695
a very important travel story on this
145
00:05:43.695 --> 00:05:44.815
travel podcast last week.
146
00:05:45.075 --> 00:05:47.015
Flying home from St. Can't wait. Yeah.
147
00:05:47.195 --> 00:05:48.655
So it was one of the most,
148
00:05:48.655 --> 00:05:49.535
Were you on that, were you on that
149
00:05:49.535 --> 00:05:51.135
spirit flight out of Tampa? No,
150
00:05:51.355 --> 00:05:52.415
No. I was on a,
151
00:05:52.415 --> 00:05:53.415
Uh, outta Clearwater.
152
00:05:54.375 --> 00:05:56.175
I was on a, uh, no, we did a connection.
153
00:05:56.375 --> 00:05:57.445
I was on an American flight.
154
00:05:57.925 --> 00:06:00.165
I couldn't get 'em was those, we booked everything so late,
155
00:06:00.345 --> 00:06:02.405
so I booked late just
156
00:06:02.405 --> 00:06:05.565
because everything that we did on weekend one was late
157
00:06:05.925 --> 00:06:07.845
from our side of things. Um,
158
00:06:08.425 --> 00:06:12.205
Was your connection, was your connection, uh, from Tampa
159
00:06:12.465 --> 00:06:15.405
to Indianapolis Via like Shanghai C
160
00:06:15.585 --> 00:06:17.085
Stupid Shang. Oh, okay. High.
161
00:06:17.945 --> 00:06:20.005
Uh, no, it wasn't quite that bad. Okay.
162
00:06:20.005 --> 00:06:24.205
Um, but so, so, so Fox obviously books my travel.
163
00:06:24.345 --> 00:06:27.605
And so when Becky then decided to try to book,
164
00:06:28.085 --> 00:06:29.205
'cause she wasn't sure if she was staying
165
00:06:29.225 --> 00:06:30.845
or if we were, you know, she was going somewhere else
166
00:06:30.845 --> 00:06:33.205
and her, so by the time she booked all, like,
167
00:06:33.545 --> 00:06:35.445
she was in the middle seat in like row
168
00:06:35.505 --> 00:06:36.565
12 or something, right?
169
00:06:36.565 --> 00:06:37.645
Mm-hmm . Which is what it's,
170
00:06:37.825 --> 00:06:39.565
and I had a big seat up front,
171
00:06:39.565 --> 00:06:41.325
thank you Fox chat out Fox boards.
172
00:06:41.465 --> 00:06:43.805
Mm-hmm . And I told her, I was like, there's just no way
173
00:06:43.805 --> 00:06:45.445
that you're not sitting in my seat.
174
00:06:45.515 --> 00:06:48.005
Like, it's not right. Like, it's just not gonna happen.
175
00:06:48.035 --> 00:06:49.405
It's fine. Of course. Um,
176
00:06:50.265 --> 00:06:51.605
and she was trying to fight me on it.
177
00:06:51.605 --> 00:06:52.645
She's like, no, no, you worked all weekend.
178
00:06:52.885 --> 00:06:54.525
Whatever was like, it's fine. I'm, we're going home.
179
00:06:54.715 --> 00:06:56.205
Like if I was, doesn't matter landing
180
00:06:56.225 --> 00:06:57.765
and had to go straight, we're doing a red
181
00:06:57.765 --> 00:06:58.805
eye and going straight to work
182
00:06:58.825 --> 00:06:59.825
On landed.
183
00:06:59.825 --> 00:07:00.525
It's through one hour flights, correct. Like,
184
00:07:00.525 --> 00:07:01.525
Yeah.
185
00:07:01.525 --> 00:07:03.525
I was like, it's fine. So she's like trying
186
00:07:03.525 --> 00:07:06.125
to fight me on this, like all the way into the plane.
187
00:07:06.425 --> 00:07:08.285
And so I just made sure I was ahead of her in line,
188
00:07:08.665 --> 00:07:11.565
put the bag up at my quote unquote seat
189
00:07:11.565 --> 00:07:12.645
and was like, have a great flight.
190
00:07:12.665 --> 00:07:14.605
And she was trying to fight me on a whatever fight.
191
00:07:14.605 --> 00:07:16.605
So I leave. So she goes in.
192
00:07:17.105 --> 00:07:19.805
So we're sitting there and this guy,
193
00:07:19.945 --> 00:07:21.965
or sorry, sorry, this flight attendant comes up to me
194
00:07:22.785 --> 00:07:25.285
and she was like, Hey, there's a gentleman who would like
195
00:07:25.285 --> 00:07:27.285
to, he goes, are you traveling with?
196
00:07:27.285 --> 00:07:28.445
She goes, are you traveling with your wife?
197
00:07:28.505 --> 00:07:31.405
And I said, yeah. And she goes, there's a gentleman
198
00:07:31.405 --> 00:07:33.085
that would like to swap seats with you so
199
00:07:33.085 --> 00:07:34.525
that way you can sit with your wife.
200
00:07:35.065 --> 00:07:37.645
And I was like, no, that's, that's not necessary.
201
00:07:37.985 --> 00:07:40.245
That's, and she's like, he's pretty insistent.
202
00:07:40.345 --> 00:07:41.645
I'm like, I don't think he understands
203
00:07:41.645 --> 00:07:43.445
that I'm in a middle seat back here.
204
00:07:43.635 --> 00:07:45.485
It's, it's fine. It's very, very kind.
205
00:07:45.485 --> 00:07:47.405
Please send on my thanks. And she goes like, she goes back,
206
00:07:47.405 --> 00:07:48.845
she's like, he really, he,
207
00:07:48.925 --> 00:07:50.845
he really would like you guys to be able to sit together.
208
00:07:51.305 --> 00:07:53.125
And so like now it's just got awkward, right?
209
00:07:53.125 --> 00:07:55.445
Because it's like I'm sitting around other people, I'm like,
210
00:07:55.475 --> 00:07:56.725
they're like, why aren't you going ?
211
00:07:57.265 --> 00:07:59.285
I'm like, I gotta, I'm like, okay, alright, sure.
212
00:07:59.385 --> 00:08:00.605
So I stand up and I go over
213
00:08:00.745 --> 00:08:02.325
and the guy was like, yeah, look, I get it.
214
00:08:02.325 --> 00:08:06.325
She was like, I, he's, I know you, I know
215
00:08:06.325 --> 00:08:08.165
that you travel a lot for work
216
00:08:08.305 --> 00:08:09.485
and you probably don't get a lot
217
00:08:09.485 --> 00:08:10.725
of time with your wife or whatever.
218
00:08:10.785 --> 00:08:13.365
So he's like, I know when I travel, I like being, you know,
219
00:08:13.495 --> 00:08:15.245
every minute because I travel a lot for work too.
220
00:08:15.245 --> 00:08:16.645
So every minute that I can be with my wife,
221
00:08:16.765 --> 00:08:18.285
I really appreciate that time.
222
00:08:18.545 --> 00:08:20.445
And so, and I was like, I was like,
223
00:08:20.445 --> 00:08:21.605
sir, you do not have to do this.
224
00:08:21.605 --> 00:08:23.165
Like, I am in a middle seat back there.
225
00:08:23.335 --> 00:08:25.045
She's like, it's fine. It's a short flight.
226
00:08:25.045 --> 00:08:26.845
He's like, it's, it's, I would rather you guys got
227
00:08:26.845 --> 00:08:27.885
the opportunity to hang together.
228
00:08:28.305 --> 00:08:29.245
And I was like, that's the
229
00:08:29.245 --> 00:08:30.765
sweetest thing I've ever experienced.
230
00:08:31.065 --> 00:08:32.605
That's incredible. I felt so guilty taking it,
231
00:08:32.605 --> 00:08:33.565
but like you could tell he was
232
00:08:33.565 --> 00:08:34.405
not taking over for an answer.
233
00:08:34.435 --> 00:08:36.805
Yeah, yeah. Yeah. So Brian, shout out Brian.
234
00:08:37.505 --> 00:08:39.885
So when we landed, I would never do anything that nice
235
00:08:40.365 --> 00:08:43.285
Humanity's as humanity's, not as, as you'd think.
236
00:08:43.715 --> 00:08:45.845
It's not all gone. There's a few good eggs left. No. Yeah.
237
00:08:45.905 --> 00:08:47.925
And so we got off the plane, we waited for Brian
238
00:08:48.505 --> 00:08:50.365
and chatted to him for a little bit, got his email.
239
00:08:50.435 --> 00:08:51.445
He's gonna come out to a race.
240
00:08:51.535 --> 00:08:53.285
We're gonna sort everything out. It's gonna be great.
241
00:08:53.985 --> 00:08:56.325
So, but just like the nicest act of kindness. Yeah.
242
00:08:56.435 --> 00:08:58.885
I've seen a long time when people normally just like all
243
00:08:59.085 --> 00:09:00.085
<inaudible> when you're traveling, right?
244
00:09:00.345 --> 00:09:03.365
Yep. So then we go to check into our flight
245
00:09:03.985 --> 00:09:05.965
to the next flight from Charlotte to Indy.
246
00:09:06.065 --> 00:09:07.405
So again, Becky's an economy.
247
00:09:07.475 --> 00:09:08.485
I've got a business class seat,
248
00:09:08.735 --> 00:09:10.205
we're there, it's about to board.
249
00:09:10.465 --> 00:09:13.405
And they call like 12 names up,
250
00:09:13.795 --> 00:09:15.525
15 names up to the front desk.
251
00:09:15.625 --> 00:09:18.845
And mine's one of them. And I was like, okay.
252
00:09:19.425 --> 00:09:20.965
So I stroll on up to the thing,
253
00:09:22.465 --> 00:09:25.705
and this is an oversold flight.
254
00:09:25.705 --> 00:09:27.025
Like they've already kind of tried to get people
255
00:09:27.025 --> 00:09:28.465
to do this, whatever mm-hmm .
256
00:09:28.765 --> 00:09:30.745
And so I, I get there, I'm at the back of this queue
257
00:09:30.745 --> 00:09:33.715
of people and I don't, and the guy says something
258
00:09:33.715 --> 00:09:34.715
and I can't hear what he's saying.
259
00:09:34.715 --> 00:09:37.035
And I'm like, wait, he's not kicking us off this plane.
260
00:09:37.035 --> 00:09:39.115
Is he like, I really, really would like to get home tonight.
261
00:09:39.895 --> 00:09:40.995
And they're like, they're like, no,
262
00:09:40.995 --> 00:09:43.475
there's something about a, a, a broken seat.
263
00:09:43.475 --> 00:09:47.155
And they're asking for a volunteer to like move to economy.
264
00:09:48.475 --> 00:09:50.255
And so like I, I like pushed my way to the front,
265
00:09:50.285 --> 00:09:52.135
like I noticed no one put their hand up,
266
00:09:52.195 --> 00:09:53.255
but, so I pushed my way to the front
267
00:09:53.255 --> 00:09:54.255
and I was like, sorry, what's the deal?
268
00:09:54.445 --> 00:09:56.135
He's like, we've got a seat with a malfunction.
269
00:09:56.155 --> 00:09:57.575
We can't use it. He goes,
270
00:09:57.715 --> 00:10:00.735
before I just randomly select somebody I like,
271
00:10:00.735 --> 00:10:03.055
every time this happens, I like calling up the whole class
272
00:10:03.275 --> 00:10:04.655
of the whole cabin and being like,
273
00:10:04.675 --> 00:10:06.015
is anybody willing to volunteer?
274
00:10:06.355 --> 00:10:08.335
And so I was just like, that's that's guy,
275
00:10:08.335 --> 00:10:10.495
that's the universe telling me it's time to take one
276
00:10:10.495 --> 00:10:12.935
for the team so we can all just, I got my business class C
277
00:10:12.935 --> 00:10:14.215
that I wasn't supposed to have on the last flight.
278
00:10:14.385 --> 00:10:16.175
We're good. I'm like, absolutely, I'll take it.
279
00:10:16.175 --> 00:10:17.215
Let's, let's roll this thing.
280
00:10:17.395 --> 00:10:18.655
And like, it was so funny
281
00:10:18.655 --> 00:10:20.615
because the entire, it was crickets, man.
282
00:10:20.615 --> 00:10:22.495
When he first said it, everyone was just like, eh, .
283
00:10:24.355 --> 00:10:25.415
And I was just like, what's the deal?
284
00:10:25.515 --> 00:10:27.095
I'm like, dude, I'm not delaying this flight.
285
00:10:27.125 --> 00:10:29.015
Like let's, let's roll, let's go .
286
00:10:29.555 --> 00:10:32.455
So it was just the universe balancing itself out.
287
00:10:32.515 --> 00:10:34.455
So I thought it was funny, funny, uh,
288
00:10:34.505 --> 00:10:36.255
funny day on the way on the trip home,
289
00:10:36.715 --> 00:10:37.715
Man.
290
00:10:37.715 --> 00:10:39.255
Well, I mean, Brian, what a, what a hell of a guy.
291
00:10:39.325 --> 00:10:40.575
Like, I, I can't, yeah.
292
00:10:40.755 --> 00:10:44.695
I'm, I'm, I'm of your same, um, thought process.
293
00:10:44.725 --> 00:10:46.935
Like there's no way I would ever let Kelly sit
294
00:10:47.675 --> 00:10:49.215
and coach if I have a,
295
00:10:49.885 --> 00:10:51.535
like you're not gonna do that to your significant other.
296
00:10:51.575 --> 00:10:52.655
I wouldn't do that to my mom. I
297
00:10:52.655 --> 00:10:53.855
wouldn't like you just don't do that.
298
00:10:53.855 --> 00:10:57.495
Right. Fine. But I also would never go to the lengths
299
00:10:57.495 --> 00:10:59.655
that Brian went to for the two
300
00:10:59.655 --> 00:11:00.935
of you. So like, shout out Brian.
301
00:11:01.815 --> 00:11:02.855
Somebody does like complete stranger
302
00:11:03.155 --> 00:11:05.775
and just like for sure saw the it for all he knew, bro.
303
00:11:05.815 --> 00:11:06.855
I sick. Wouldn't, wouldn't sick
304
00:11:06.855 --> 00:11:08.175
of her and wanted a time away. Wouldn. I
305
00:11:08.175 --> 00:11:09.175
Wouldn't do.
306
00:11:09.175 --> 00:11:11.015
I would knowing you and you being like my best
307
00:11:11.015 --> 00:11:12.055
friend, I wouldn't do it for you.
308
00:11:12.515 --> 00:11:13.655
If Becky sat next to me
309
00:11:13.655 --> 00:11:16.095
and she explained the situation, I would be like that guy.
310
00:11:16.815 --> 00:11:19.015
I would've, I would've like literally looked back at you
311
00:11:19.035 --> 00:11:20.295
and cheered you from first class.
312
00:11:20.615 --> 00:11:22.095
I not opened the curtain for you. I'll
313
00:11:22.095 --> 00:11:24.855
Send you, I'll send you please
314
00:11:24.855 --> 00:11:25.935
Send him a 'em a diet Coke.
315
00:11:26.255 --> 00:11:27.295
I get those. Anyway.
316
00:11:28.615 --> 00:11:29.895
I would definitely,
Like if you tried
317
00:11:29.895 --> 00:11:32.255
to use the front cabin bathroom, I would have
318
00:11:33.155 --> 00:11:34.155
It on you.
319
00:11:34.155 --> 00:11:35.295
They taste better up here. This is
320
00:11:35.295 --> 00:11:36.455
a business class diet Coke.
321
00:11:36.455 --> 00:11:37.895
They taste way better up here.
322
00:11:39.285 --> 00:11:43.655
Love
It. Oh, Mark's gonna hate this chat.
323
00:11:44.005 --> 00:11:46.535
Yeah. Mark's really not gonna like our business class chat.
324
00:11:47.115 --> 00:11:48.695
Um, so yeah, so that was very cool.
325
00:11:49.255 --> 00:11:51.575
I, and that actually did happen to me on a flight home
326
00:11:51.665 --> 00:11:54.205
where I had gotten upgraded and I saw my uncle
327
00:11:54.305 --> 00:11:56.045
and his wife boarding the same flight
328
00:11:56.065 --> 00:11:58.125
and I guess they, they didn't get the upgrade
329
00:11:58.125 --> 00:11:59.245
and I just kind of waved
330
00:11:59.245 --> 00:12:00.405
and watched him go as they,
331
00:12:00.625 --> 00:12:02.405
as they passed me by in first class.
332
00:12:02.725 --> 00:12:04.725
I was like, eh, it sucks to be you Uncle Mark,
333
00:12:05.155 --> 00:12:08.045
Like , but like in general, well,
334
00:12:08.045 --> 00:12:09.245
again, there's only, it's only you.
335
00:12:09.245 --> 00:12:10.805
It's not like you can do anything in that situation.
336
00:12:11.165 --> 00:12:12.845
I could have given it to my aunt, but you know,
337
00:12:13.985 --> 00:12:15.005
She wanted to be with your uncle
338
00:12:15.185 --> 00:12:16.185
Joe James.
339
00:12:16.185 --> 00:12:17.685
It's, uh, it's it's race week for you.
340
00:12:17.975 --> 00:12:20.685
We've got, um, yeah, sporty cars are back.
341
00:12:21.265 --> 00:12:23.445
Should we, should we talk a little bit about,
342
00:12:23.655 --> 00:12:25.365
since we're on the sporty car topic
343
00:12:25.465 --> 00:12:26.845
or about to be on the sporty car topic?
344
00:12:27.195 --> 00:12:29.885
Yeah, there's a little bit of chaos surrounding one
345
00:12:29.965 --> 00:12:31.845
of the teams, um, in sporty cars.
346
00:12:32.625 --> 00:12:36.685
So I don't, oh, . I don't, I feel like we should mention it.
347
00:12:37.065 --> 00:12:41.445
So AO racing, um, is a team in LMP two as well
348
00:12:41.445 --> 00:12:43.125
as GTD.
349
00:12:43.525 --> 00:12:44.565
I don't know which one. Yeah,
350
00:12:44.565 --> 00:12:45.565
I don't know which one.
351
00:12:45.635 --> 00:12:50.575
Anyways, so can you guys hear that? No.
352
00:12:50.635 --> 00:12:52.615
In a hotel. And I feel like there's another chipmunk in my
353
00:12:52.615 --> 00:12:53.855
wall anyways.
354
00:12:54.395 --> 00:12:57.855
Um, fortunately I travel with my sauce, so I'll get to work.
355
00:12:58.075 --> 00:12:59.255
Uh, so no . So
356
00:13:02.765 --> 00:13:06.935
they're, um, they, they have done a very good job, um,
357
00:13:07.835 --> 00:13:11.415
of creating this brand around their cars.
358
00:13:11.515 --> 00:13:14.895
So their cars are like, um, they have mascots
359
00:13:14.895 --> 00:13:16.535
that are like dinosaur mascots
360
00:13:16.535 --> 00:13:18.455
and they're painted kind of crazy greens
361
00:13:18.455 --> 00:13:20.015
and purples and all this stuff.
362
00:13:20.115 --> 00:13:24.495
And, and they're defining, um, like characteristic
363
00:13:24.515 --> 00:13:27.935
to their schemes is the, the front of the cars are like
364
00:13:29.185 --> 00:13:30.255
teeth, right?
365
00:13:30.285 --> 00:13:32.215
Like yeah, I I don't wanna say sharp teeth,
366
00:13:32.275 --> 00:13:33.935
but some sort of animal teeth or whatever,
367
00:13:33.935 --> 00:13:34.935
Right?
368
00:13:34.935 --> 00:13:35.455
It's a dinosaur. Like it's a Yeah,
369
00:13:35.455 --> 00:13:36.335
it's a mouth with teeth,
370
00:13:36.335 --> 00:13:37.415
right? And there's a gold tooth and
371
00:13:37.775 --> 00:13:38.775
Dinosaur teeth.
372
00:13:38.775 --> 00:13:42.775
Yeah. Yeah. And so there was, um,
373
00:13:43.765 --> 00:13:48.335
basically a little bit of controversy that developed
374
00:13:48.485 --> 00:13:50.335
because this, how
375
00:13:50.335 --> 00:13:51.335
Did it start?
376
00:13:52.725 --> 00:13:54.625
How did what start
The controversy?
377
00:13:54.695 --> 00:13:56.865
Like it, I saw the backlash after the fact,
378
00:13:56.925 --> 00:13:59.465
but like what, how did it, did you see how it kicked off?
379
00:14:00.225 --> 00:14:01.425
I did not.
Yeah.
380
00:14:01.485 --> 00:14:05.505
So like, I guess if maybe a fan like put teeth
381
00:14:05.505 --> 00:14:06.785
on their car or something. Yeah,
382
00:14:06.785 --> 00:14:09.545
I saw a, a girl posted a picture of her car
383
00:14:09.695 --> 00:14:12.425
with the teeth photoshopped on the front of it saying, no,
384
00:14:12.545 --> 00:14:14.105
I was going to, you know, do something to my car,
385
00:14:14.105 --> 00:14:15.425
but I guess now I gotta do this.
386
00:14:15.995 --> 00:14:18.785
Which, like, good natured fun. Cool.
387
00:14:19.605 --> 00:14:24.465
So the, the, the backlash came from, they responded to
388
00:14:24.465 --> 00:14:26.185
that being like, Hey, this is kind
389
00:14:26.185 --> 00:14:28.185
of like our thing and all this sort of thing.
390
00:14:28.185 --> 00:14:30.625
And I think it came from a good place in the sense
391
00:14:30.625 --> 00:14:32.585
that, um, they even
392
00:14:32.595 --> 00:14:34.065
Tried to say it was trademarked.
393
00:14:34.065 --> 00:14:36.345
They said their their liveries are trademarked, you know,
394
00:14:36.345 --> 00:14:37.505
make your car your own thing.
395
00:14:38.205 --> 00:14:39.505
But yeah, I
Agree. Didn't they weren't
396
00:14:39.505 --> 00:14:40.945
like cease and desist.
397
00:14:41.175 --> 00:14:42.385
They right. It wasn't.
398
00:14:42.445 --> 00:14:43.585
So there's, there's a point
399
00:14:43.605 --> 00:14:45.185
to this broader story that I'm bringing up.
400
00:14:45.285 --> 00:14:46.845
So there,
401
00:14:47.285 --> 00:14:50.565
I think the response was goodhearted in nature in the sense
402
00:14:50.565 --> 00:14:54.445
that they didn't want their brand to potentially be hurt
403
00:14:55.545 --> 00:14:58.085
at some point in the future if, god forbid something were
404
00:14:58.085 --> 00:15:00.525
to happen with a car that had racing teeth on the front
405
00:15:00.525 --> 00:15:01.525
of it and all this sort of thing.
406
00:15:01.525 --> 00:15:05.245
Right? The same reason why teams, um,
407
00:15:05.455 --> 00:15:08.525
don't want you donating all of your team
408
00:15:09.325 --> 00:15:11.165
wear team kit to Goodwill.
409
00:15:11.465 --> 00:15:14.165
And they want you to throw it out even though it pained all
410
00:15:14.165 --> 00:15:16.085
of us to do it because it's perfectly good jackets
411
00:15:16.085 --> 00:15:17.765
and clothes and polos and all this sort of thing.
412
00:15:18.025 --> 00:15:21.445
You gotta throw it out because they don't want said sponsors
413
00:15:21.505 --> 00:15:24.485
and partners and whatever potentially being involved in a
414
00:15:24.485 --> 00:15:26.005
really bad situation later on down the road.
415
00:15:26.005 --> 00:15:27.005
Right? They don't wanna have connect. They
416
00:15:27.005 --> 00:15:28.445
Don't want ending up in Portland
417
00:15:29.385 --> 00:15:31.725
on some crackhead who's right.
418
00:15:31.725 --> 00:15:33.165
Exactly. And I bring that up specifically
419
00:15:33.165 --> 00:15:35.525
because someone, someone gave a last week
420
00:15:35.545 --> 00:15:36.645
for ING on Portland,
421
00:15:36.755 --> 00:15:38.085
it's like, what's wrong with Portland man?
422
00:15:38.085 --> 00:15:39.445
It's like, you've clearly never been,
423
00:15:39.505 --> 00:15:40.725
if you don't understand
424
00:15:40.725 --> 00:15:42.765
Literally everything, um, minus like beauty.
425
00:15:42.765 --> 00:15:44.645
I digress. The beauty, the natural beauty of it, right?
426
00:15:44.915 --> 00:15:49.085
Yeah. So, so AO racing then kind of has
427
00:15:49.145 --> 00:15:50.685
to backtrack a little bit
428
00:15:50.805 --> 00:15:53.485
'cause there was a lot of backlash that was coming, um,
429
00:15:53.635 --> 00:15:55.525
from it online, from fans
430
00:15:55.585 --> 00:15:57.485
and other people being like, you're not the first person
431
00:15:57.545 --> 00:15:59.245
to have teeth on your cards
432
00:15:59.345 --> 00:16:01.245
and here's all these examples and all this sort of thing.
433
00:16:01.665 --> 00:16:05.125
And so they kind of put a statement out explaining all
434
00:16:05.285 --> 00:16:08.525
of this reasoning as to why they kind of went to
435
00:16:10.175 --> 00:16:11.955
the level that they did with their response.
436
00:16:12.415 --> 00:16:15.075
And I just wanted to get everyone's opinion on
437
00:16:15.935 --> 00:16:19.355
why do you think there, do you not,
438
00:16:19.375 --> 00:16:23.835
why do you think it should be something that a brand takes
439
00:16:24.395 --> 00:16:26.915
a stance on an issue?
440
00:16:27.575 --> 00:16:31.325
And then social media, whether it's bias
441
00:16:31.505 --> 00:16:33.845
or social media response
442
00:16:33.985 --> 00:16:38.285
or social media, negative social media press if you will,
443
00:16:38.615 --> 00:16:40.805
makes them change their stance on it completely.
444
00:16:40.805 --> 00:16:43.085
Because I don't think anything that they did in essence
445
00:16:43.425 --> 00:16:44.525
and the beginning was wrong.
446
00:16:44.555 --> 00:16:47.485
Like, I don't think, they didn't say, you're gonna get sued.
447
00:16:47.505 --> 00:16:49.525
Here's, here's a letter from our attorney.
448
00:16:49.555 --> 00:16:50.725
Like Tim said, there was no cease
449
00:16:50.725 --> 00:16:51.805
and desist all this sort of thing.
450
00:16:51.805 --> 00:16:53.685
They kind of just did like, Hey, that's our thing,
451
00:16:53.945 --> 00:16:55.445
please don't do it sort of thing.
452
00:16:55.445 --> 00:16:57.925
Which might be wrong, might be right, doesn't really matter.
453
00:16:58.115 --> 00:17:00.885
They completely kind of 180 on their response
454
00:17:00.915 --> 00:17:05.605
because of the social media kind of, um, uh,
455
00:17:06.715 --> 00:17:08.085
disapproval that they got.
456
00:17:08.185 --> 00:17:09.365
So should we be doing that?
457
00:17:09.425 --> 00:17:12.285
Do you think that's, do you think that's a, a thing that,
458
00:17:12.285 --> 00:17:15.125
because I, in my mind, they look even worse now, like it,
459
00:17:15.125 --> 00:17:16.445
it makes them look like guilty
460
00:17:16.445 --> 00:17:19.165
because they're like accepting fault
461
00:17:19.305 --> 00:17:20.485
for something they really
462
00:17:20.485 --> 00:17:22.005
Wasn't wrong. A crime, right? Like, it's
463
00:17:22.005 --> 00:17:24.645
So like why if, if I tweet something right
464
00:17:25.185 --> 00:17:26.365
and people disagree with it
465
00:17:26.465 --> 00:17:29.165
or not tweet say something on podcast, oh, Portland sucks.
466
00:17:30.025 --> 00:17:30.925
Why do we go there? Right.
467
00:17:31.025 --> 00:17:32.485
People <inaudible> on me about it.
468
00:17:32.545 --> 00:17:33.725
I'm not gonna change my opinion of it.
469
00:17:33.745 --> 00:17:36.965
So like why should anyone be changing their opinion on,
470
00:17:37.795 --> 00:17:38.805
Because I, I think
471
00:17:38.965 --> 00:17:40.085
A statement they make on social media.
472
00:17:40.605 --> 00:17:42.805
I see what you're saying. I agree in principle,
473
00:17:43.205 --> 00:17:47.005
I think the difference is to, to use your,
474
00:17:48.095 --> 00:17:51.655
to use your example Portland objectively does suck.
475
00:17:51.835 --> 00:17:53.415
So, but,
476
00:17:53.475 --> 00:17:55.895
but when you say something that people have a good argument
477
00:17:55.995 --> 00:17:59.455
and like maybe you missed the broader point in your original
478
00:17:59.455 --> 00:18:01.175
statement, even though nothing about
479
00:18:01.175 --> 00:18:03.175
what the team said was ever supposed to be like,
480
00:18:03.475 --> 00:18:04.695
it wasn't anti fan,
481
00:18:04.695 --> 00:18:06.615
they weren't discouraging their fans from
482
00:18:06.615 --> 00:18:07.815
supporting them by painting.
483
00:18:07.835 --> 00:18:09.975
You know, it, it was just like, I don't know.
484
00:18:10.995 --> 00:18:14.835
I I think that there may have been like a, a tone
485
00:18:14.835 --> 00:18:17.195
that was overlooked in the team's responses.
486
00:18:17.375 --> 00:18:20.675
Mm. And so I get why they, but is
487
00:18:20.675 --> 00:18:23.075
It worth then putting out a whole nother press statement?
488
00:18:23.575 --> 00:18:25.715
Not when it was worse than the first one. Yeah, sure.
489
00:18:26.035 --> 00:18:27.115
Honestly, I I think they just,
490
00:18:27.115 --> 00:18:29.315
they just missed the boat twice. Yeah.
491
00:18:29.585 --> 00:18:32.155
Yeah.
If it's specifically about the response on social
492
00:18:32.155 --> 00:18:36.075
media, like yeah, you can amplify those responses
493
00:18:36.075 --> 00:18:37.955
and get them faster, but what's the difference between that?
494
00:18:37.955 --> 00:18:40.475
And like, people that used to write in op-ed letters
495
00:18:40.615 --> 00:18:42.115
or mail-in campaigns
496
00:18:42.115 --> 00:18:45.395
or other ways of expressing their opinion in a public way.
497
00:18:45.465 --> 00:18:48.195
Like we can just do it a lot easier now. Um, for
498
00:18:48.195 --> 00:18:49.195
Sure.
499
00:18:49.195 --> 00:18:52.355
I, but I think, I think to your point, the the, the changing
500
00:18:52.415 --> 00:18:54.115
of it actually made it worse.
501
00:18:54.405 --> 00:18:57.395
Worse.
It hadn't replied until the backlash point,
502
00:18:57.395 --> 00:19:01.155
this would've died down because I, I never about right.
503
00:19:01.215 --> 00:19:02.955
The original offense I never even actually heard
504
00:19:03.155 --> 00:19:06.315
of it was the, it was the reaction to the backlash, right?
505
00:19:06.335 --> 00:19:08.715
To like, you know, whatever that got even,
506
00:19:08.915 --> 00:19:10.355
I don't know, the whole thing is silly.
507
00:19:10.355 --> 00:19:12.555
So it's a, a thirst SA sports car team.
508
00:19:12.555 --> 00:19:14.115
We're just, we're just going racing. Calm down.
509
00:19:14.115 --> 00:19:15.115
Like it's fine.
510
00:19:15.695 --> 00:19:17.115
Bad. The other thing, the other thing that happened
511
00:19:17.115 --> 00:19:19.435
yesterday on social media that I want, I wanna talk about
512
00:19:19.495 --> 00:19:22.115
before we get to re
513
00:19:23.135 --> 00:19:25.715
is in a similar vein, but not really.
514
00:19:26.335 --> 00:19:30.075
Um, there's A-N-H-R-A funny car driver, right?
515
00:19:30.505 --> 00:19:31.955
That Absolutely. We
516
00:19:31.955 --> 00:19:33.915
Talked about this with Kyle Kirkwood. Oh
517
00:19:33.915 --> 00:19:34.915
Yeah.
518
00:19:34.915 --> 00:19:36.795
I, I really, no, no, no. I want hear your take on this.
519
00:19:37.195 --> 00:19:38.995
I definitely wanna hear your take on this. That guy's
520
00:19:38.995 --> 00:19:39.995
A clown.
521
00:19:40.265 --> 00:19:42.275
Okay. Because my favorite, my favorite,
522
00:19:42.575 --> 00:19:46.355
my favorite part about all of this is the next time
523
00:19:46.425 --> 00:19:49.395
that he was on television was a qualifying run.
524
00:19:49.775 --> 00:19:52.475
And he qualified at 209 miles an hour.
525
00:19:52.675 --> 00:19:54.675
'cause he was all sideways and spun the tires
526
00:19:54.775 --> 00:19:57.915
and was all outta shape his average speed or top speed.
527
00:19:58.055 --> 00:19:59.355
He was 2 0 9. He was slower than Indy car.
528
00:19:59.355 --> 00:20:01.475
So it was like, hmm. Slower than Indy car, huh?
529
00:20:01.825 --> 00:20:05.515
Shut up and calling Fox out for being like fake news network
530
00:20:05.695 --> 00:20:07.275
and blah blah blah and all this sort of thing.
531
00:20:07.465 --> 00:20:10.395
Like that's not, we're not saying it's the,
532
00:20:10.615 --> 00:20:11.795
and the single fastest
533
00:20:12.265 --> 00:20:13.275
Broadcast by them.
534
00:20:13.595 --> 00:20:15.355
NHRA is also on Fox. Fox. So
535
00:20:15.355 --> 00:20:16.355
What's your point?
536
00:20:16.415 --> 00:20:18.715
Why would you calling criticized Fox? Fox? Yeah.
537
00:20:18.855 --> 00:20:20.515
Oh, right, right, right. No, no, no.
538
00:20:20.515 --> 00:20:22.995
Just, just completely insane. I don't understand it at all.
539
00:20:23.295 --> 00:20:27.745
Here's the thing, the, I I love his passion.
540
00:20:28.595 --> 00:20:30.925
He's passionate about his sport. I respect that.
541
00:20:31.785 --> 00:20:35.405
Um, if you want to get
542
00:20:36.075 --> 00:20:39.445
very specific, yes, NHRA is racing
543
00:20:39.745 --> 00:20:42.845
and yes, it is technically a faster speed than any car.
544
00:20:43.035 --> 00:20:44.325
Fine. I don't think a lot
545
00:20:44.325 --> 00:20:46.085
of people classify them in the same kind
546
00:20:46.085 --> 00:20:47.400
of brand of motor sports.
547
00:20:47.505 --> 00:20:49.165
And that, like drag racing versus circuit
548
00:20:49.165 --> 00:20:50.485
racing is the same way.
549
00:20:50.485 --> 00:20:52.525
You wouldn't include rally racing. Like
550
00:20:53.205 --> 00:20:54.725
I saw one person respond
551
00:20:54.725 --> 00:20:57.845
with saying NHRA is racing is akin
552
00:20:57.845 --> 00:20:59.285
to saying finger painting is art.
553
00:21:00.185 --> 00:21:02.685
That's, that's maybe belittling the sport
554
00:21:02.955 --> 00:21:04.085
more than I'm okay with.
555
00:21:04.405 --> 00:21:05.925
I it's not that.
556
00:21:06.505 --> 00:21:08.325
Um, but it's a different kind of racing, right?
557
00:21:08.325 --> 00:21:11.645
It's, but like fastest circuit racing in the world
558
00:21:11.645 --> 00:21:12.685
doesn't have the same flow.
559
00:21:12.775 --> 00:21:15.405
Right? The, the anger that he showed,
560
00:21:15.835 --> 00:21:17.165
what I didn't get was like,
561
00:21:17.675 --> 00:21:20.325
it's not like the ad said the NHRA sucks.
562
00:21:20.355 --> 00:21:23.205
IndyCar is better. They were just making a blanket statement
563
00:21:23.305 --> 00:21:24.925
to make IndyCar look good, right?
564
00:21:24.945 --> 00:21:27.005
Mm-hmm. It was not, it was not supposed
565
00:21:27.005 --> 00:21:29.405
to be at the cost of NHRA.
566
00:21:29.405 --> 00:21:32.245
Like he is bringing more attention, negative attention
567
00:21:32.245 --> 00:21:35.685
to the NHRA based on that reaction than I think anyone
568
00:21:35.685 --> 00:21:37.645
that saw the IndyCar commercials has.
569
00:21:37.825 --> 00:21:40.725
So mm-hmm . I, I get it. He's not wrong.
570
00:21:41.625 --> 00:21:43.125
It is a faster form of racing.
571
00:21:43.355 --> 00:21:44.725
It's a different kind of racing.
572
00:21:44.915 --> 00:21:47.565
This is a tagline and a commercial calm down.
573
00:21:47.835 --> 00:21:49.485
Like he didn't even talk about his run.
574
00:21:49.825 --> 00:21:52.045
He just talked about that and left in such a,
575
00:21:52.185 --> 00:21:54.765
if he had like dropped a little joke, I was expecting one
576
00:21:54.765 --> 00:21:56.925
of them to maybe be like, yeah, hey,
577
00:21:56.925 --> 00:21:58.285
I qualified at three 30.
578
00:21:58.425 --> 00:21:59.645
That's a little quicker than your car.
579
00:21:59.865 --> 00:22:02.565
Is that the fastest race? But no, he just like went
580
00:22:02.565 --> 00:22:03.565
and scorched earth on it, which
581
00:22:03.565 --> 00:22:04.685
I think was totally the wrong approach.
582
00:22:04.865 --> 00:22:07.965
So again, passionate guy, I respect that
583
00:22:08.665 --> 00:22:11.205
he just maybe didn't approach that one the best and
584
00:22:12.025 --> 00:22:13.025
Wow. .
585
00:22:18.065 --> 00:22:21.045
So, uh, see room 12 hour. Let's talk about that now.
586
00:22:21.495 --> 00:22:26.405
Let's do it. Let's talk about, um, you are, uh, going
587
00:22:26.425 --> 00:22:28.445
to compete in a race that, uh,
588
00:22:28.665 --> 00:22:31.765
is gonna be longer than Daytona was for you. Hopefully,
589
00:22:31.945 --> 00:22:32.645
God willing. Yeah. .
590
00:22:32.805 --> 00:22:36.205
Um,
The nine hours of Daytona was not Yeah.
591
00:22:36.205 --> 00:22:37.725
Uh, not what we were looking for.
592
00:22:38.385 --> 00:22:40.485
So what's the what? Give us
593
00:22:40.485 --> 00:22:41.485
The, what's the prognosis?
594
00:22:41.515 --> 00:22:42.925
Yeah. What do we think? So, you know,
595
00:22:42.925 --> 00:22:45.045
obviously the team's been, uh, been hard
596
00:22:45.045 --> 00:22:46.125
of work since Daytona.
597
00:22:46.265 --> 00:22:48.925
We obviously had a bunch of repair work to do, which sucked,
598
00:22:49.145 --> 00:22:52.045
but, uh, part of the deal as a result of that,
599
00:22:52.045 --> 00:22:54.365
we missed the test 'cause the car wasn't, um, up
600
00:22:54.365 --> 00:22:56.885
and running again, which really sucks.
601
00:22:57.165 --> 00:22:59.645
'cause we could have definitely used the, uh, test time
602
00:23:00.355 --> 00:23:03.525
that said, you know, um, you know, so it's Marco, Andrea,
603
00:23:03.545 --> 00:23:04.845
and myself back in the car
604
00:23:05.865 --> 00:23:09.305
and, um, they, they both know the track.
605
00:23:09.305 --> 00:23:10.905
They've raced there before. They obviously know
606
00:23:10.905 --> 00:23:11.945
the car, like the back of their hand.
607
00:23:12.205 --> 00:23:15.545
So it's, uh, it's not the worst case scenario.
608
00:23:15.685 --> 00:23:18.225
The other Lamborghini, the Forte car did run at the test.
609
00:23:18.365 --> 00:23:20.265
So we'll get some, some information from them,
610
00:23:20.265 --> 00:23:21.985
which helps. And yeah, man,
611
00:23:21.985 --> 00:23:24.225
Like it's how much, how much, how much sharing is there
612
00:23:24.225 --> 00:23:26.345
between you guys?
613
00:23:26.345 --> 00:23:28.705
Because yes, it's, you're both driving Lamborghinis,
614
00:23:28.705 --> 00:23:30.345
but you are also super competing against each other.
615
00:23:30.565 --> 00:23:31.985
Uh, well different classes, right?
616
00:23:31.985 --> 00:23:34.465
Because we're GTD Pro and their GTD Fair.
617
00:23:34.695 --> 00:23:36.185
Fair. Okay.
So that it's less
618
00:23:36.185 --> 00:23:37.345
of a thing, although, mm-hmm.
619
00:23:37.345 --> 00:23:39.625
You know, I got, I'm, I hate to call them out this way,
620
00:23:39.625 --> 00:23:41.825
but like we had that last year with McLaren as well, right?
621
00:23:41.845 --> 00:23:43.985
The Inception car was not in the same class as us
622
00:23:44.125 --> 00:23:46.525
and they were, and I don't know if this came from the team
623
00:23:46.545 --> 00:23:47.565
or if this was more of like,
624
00:23:47.595 --> 00:23:49.005
they were not like from, from McLaren.
625
00:23:49.005 --> 00:23:50.685
They did not like to share.
They were not very
626
00:23:50.685 --> 00:23:51.685
forthcoming with information.
627
00:23:51.685 --> 00:23:54.605
Yeah. It is much, much, uh, a much more, uh,
628
00:23:54.915 --> 00:23:56.125
symbiotic relationship
629
00:23:56.515 --> 00:23:58.245
with Forte than it was cool last
630
00:23:58.245 --> 00:23:59.365
year on the McLaren side of things.
631
00:23:59.465 --> 00:24:00.605
So whether that's coming from the team
632
00:24:00.785 --> 00:24:03.245
or from Lambo, directive from Lambo, I don't know.
633
00:24:03.585 --> 00:24:05.405
But yes, it's a much, much more open book.
634
00:24:05.485 --> 00:24:06.485
I wouldn't say it's completely open,
635
00:24:06.485 --> 00:24:07.325
but it's much more open.
636
00:24:07.345 --> 00:24:10.725
So it's great. Um, so that will help, uh, tremendously.
637
00:24:11.105 --> 00:24:13.405
And yeah man, I'm excited. It's gonna be hot again,
638
00:24:13.405 --> 00:24:16.045
which sucks because you remember last year was
639
00:24:16.045 --> 00:24:17.285
hot and uh, not great.
640
00:24:17.745 --> 00:24:19.245
Um, well Kirkwood was saying it's supposed
641
00:24:19.245 --> 00:24:21.325
to be like 90 degrees on Saturday. Oh,
642
00:24:21.585 --> 00:24:23.165
Oh, no,
No.
643
00:24:23.765 --> 00:24:25.525
Hmm. I really does.
644
00:24:25.525 --> 00:24:27.405
Does this car have
Vents? I wanna start the race now. .
645
00:24:27.715 --> 00:24:28.845
What, uh, does it, what
646
00:24:29.355 --> 00:24:30.355
Have vents?
647
00:24:30.795 --> 00:24:32.845
It's got a lot better air flow than the McLaren.
648
00:24:33.355 --> 00:24:34.525
It's so it has some,
649
00:24:35.065 --> 00:24:39.525
It has some and uh, it is definitely a cooler car,
650
00:24:39.625 --> 00:24:42.285
but we don't have like AC and we don't have cool suit.
651
00:24:42.445 --> 00:24:44.325
I don't know if maybe we have a cool suit actually. Why?
652
00:24:44.425 --> 00:24:47.685
No, hang on. They might. They were. Mm.
653
00:24:48.555 --> 00:24:50.965
I'll get back to you on that. We didn't in Daytona, but
654
00:24:51.445 --> 00:24:52.445
A chance we have 'cause thing's been run
655
00:24:52.445 --> 00:24:54.125
that thing's been running for like,
656
00:24:54.235 --> 00:24:55.235
Like a decade.
657
00:24:55.275 --> 00:24:57.205
Yeah. How is there not AC or a cool suit?
658
00:24:57.365 --> 00:24:59.845
I understand the McLaren because like it was new-ish.
659
00:25:00.275 --> 00:25:03.685
Yeah. So the ac ac no, but the, the cool soup maybe
660
00:25:03.745 --> 00:25:05.245
and maybe that was just 'cause we got the car
661
00:25:05.245 --> 00:25:07.005
so late in Daytona and Daytona ended up being freezing
662
00:25:07.005 --> 00:25:08.125
cold anyway, so it was fine.
663
00:25:08.465 --> 00:25:11.025
Um mm-hmm. I'll, I'll report back on that,
664
00:25:11.045 --> 00:25:13.945
but I do hope we have it because Sebring was not super
665
00:25:13.945 --> 00:25:14.985
awesome in the heat last year.
666
00:25:15.565 --> 00:25:18.225
Mm-hmm. Um, but yeah man, it's, who knows, you know,
667
00:25:18.225 --> 00:25:21.825
it's a different, it's a different BOP than uh, Daytona.
668
00:25:22.165 --> 00:25:23.305
Um, just in general, right?
669
00:25:23.305 --> 00:25:26.705
Like the overall philosophy, like it's one BOP for Daytona
670
00:25:26.725 --> 00:25:28.865
and then another BOP for the rest of the races.
671
00:25:29.325 --> 00:25:30.345
So we still don't know, we
672
00:25:30.345 --> 00:25:31.505
obviously had a good one in Daytona.
673
00:25:31.505 --> 00:25:32.945
The car was very competitive. I don't know
674
00:25:32.945 --> 00:25:34.265
where we're gonna stack up at Sebring.
675
00:25:34.525 --> 00:25:36.825
Um, not having tested there obviously hurts,
676
00:25:37.005 --> 00:25:39.585
but, uh, we will see
677
00:25:40.365 --> 00:25:42.265
and yeah, I'm just excited to get back behind the wheel
678
00:25:42.365 --> 00:25:44.895
and um, see the guys again.
679
00:25:44.915 --> 00:25:47.615
You know, again, we got the car like mid-December, right?
680
00:25:47.675 --> 00:25:50.495
So even just for the team, having had it now in the shop
681
00:25:50.675 --> 00:25:54.415
for this time in between Daytona Sebring for a month
682
00:25:54.415 --> 00:25:56.935
or whatever, you just get the opportunity to go
683
00:25:56.935 --> 00:25:58.455
through everything better and you know,
684
00:25:58.455 --> 00:25:59.895
learn a little bit more about the car
685
00:25:59.955 --> 00:26:01.055
and, and this that and the other.
686
00:26:01.195 --> 00:26:04.695
So, um, yeah, on paper cautiously optimistic,
687
00:26:04.915 --> 00:26:07.735
but we won't know until we know first time going there
688
00:26:07.735 --> 00:26:09.895
with the torque sensors and they don't like bumps
689
00:26:09.995 --> 00:26:11.575
and Seber has a bump or two.
690
00:26:12.155 --> 00:26:13.535
So that's gonna be interesting.
691
00:26:13.885 --> 00:26:18.075
Yeah, I think managing that is gonna be very tough. Mm.
692
00:26:18.765 --> 00:26:22.475
We'll make it work. Um, what, uh, I mean
693
00:26:23.425 --> 00:26:25.595
what are you looking forward to tomorrow at old
694
00:26:38.955 --> 00:26:39.375
mm-hmm .
695
00:26:39.845 --> 00:26:41.495
Yeah, I'm good now. I think I got it all.
696
00:26:41.695 --> 00:26:43.525
I bet he's got one more in him. No, I'm not gonna do that.
697
00:26:43.545 --> 00:26:44.545
I'm not gonna do what you would do .
698
00:26:45.585 --> 00:26:48.325
Is it, is it, is it French?
No,
699
00:26:49.165 --> 00:26:50.165
Absolutely not.
700
00:26:50.165 --> 00:26:51.405
I didn't know if there was some like background
701
00:26:51.405 --> 00:26:52.445
of French. No.
702
00:26:52.705 --> 00:26:55.675
God no.
Uh, what am I looking forward to?
703
00:26:55.745 --> 00:26:57.995
Well, ECR has historically been very good
704
00:26:57.995 --> 00:26:59.395
there. Um, it's true.
705
00:26:59.575 --> 00:27:01.395
And the first one was there I believe,
706
00:27:01.875 --> 00:27:03.435
I don't know if that's true or not,
707
00:27:03.575 --> 00:27:07.115
but like they're, they are super strong there.
708
00:27:07.295 --> 00:27:09.555
Um, so I'm looking forward to that.
709
00:27:10.105 --> 00:27:13.955
Driving a, a stout car there. Um,
710
00:27:14.775 --> 00:27:15.915
Who else? Sorry? Who is testing?
711
00:27:16.535 --> 00:27:20.595
So everyone is testing minus can and
712
00:27:20.695 --> 00:27:21.755
Andrei. Andrei
713
00:27:22.375 --> 00:27:25.955
And Juncos, but SSI is kind of testing 'cause shanks here.
714
00:27:26.845 --> 00:27:28.335
True. Yeah. That's great for that man.
715
00:27:28.335 --> 00:27:30.135
You kinda gotta split that up in almost easier days,
716
00:27:30.135 --> 00:27:31.135
Dude.
717
00:27:31.135 --> 00:27:31.815
So, and, and, and I were talking about this
718
00:27:31.875 --> 00:27:33.615
and it's like, that should be not allowed.
719
00:27:33.875 --> 00:27:38.455
Or if it is allowed, then team should have the ability
720
00:27:38.475 --> 00:27:40.855
to like, I'm, we're gonna send Christian to Barbara
721
00:27:40.955 --> 00:27:43.415
and Alex to Indie g next week. Yeah. Like
722
00:27:43.755 --> 00:27:45.655
It should be, you should be able to split up drivers.
723
00:27:46.015 --> 00:27:47.775
I actually think that makes sense. Right? So
724
00:27:47.925 --> 00:27:48.925
Fine.
725
00:27:48.925 --> 00:27:50.495
But like it's, it's kind of, it's kind of bull
726
00:27:50.885 --> 00:27:53.575
that like S's getting a completely extra day.
727
00:27:53.805 --> 00:27:55.015
Well then again, if you did it that way,
728
00:27:55.015 --> 00:27:56.975
then every Gany driver could get a day.
729
00:27:56.975 --> 00:27:58.855
So they could test at three tracks instead of two.
730
00:27:58.995 --> 00:28:00.215
So that actually wouldn't work out.
731
00:28:00.525 --> 00:28:03.215
Okay, fine. So you need to eliminate if if if
732
00:28:03.845 --> 00:28:04.895
Banks's going to attach,
733
00:28:04.955 --> 00:28:05.955
If you have a technical partnership,
734
00:28:06.195 --> 00:28:07.735
Ity has to go,
Both cars have Yeah.
735
00:28:07.735 --> 00:28:09.575
Both teams have to go right. Or they
736
00:28:09.575 --> 00:28:11.375
don't, but it counts against their day . Sure.
737
00:28:11.555 --> 00:28:14.375
Penske and Foyer here. Um, so that's a non non-issue.
738
00:28:14.375 --> 00:28:15.575
But anyway, so, so a lot
739
00:28:15.575 --> 00:28:17.055
of people here, so it'll be a good, um,
740
00:28:17.765 --> 00:28:18.765
Yeah.
741
00:28:18.765 --> 00:28:19.695
So that's still like 20 cars probably.
742
00:28:19.805 --> 00:28:20.935
Yeah, I mean it'll be a good
743
00:28:20.935 --> 00:28:22.135
benchmark to know where we're at.
744
00:28:22.355 --> 00:28:26.415
Um, and listen, like we know that road courses
745
00:28:26.955 --> 00:28:31.425
and the, uh, ovals, well
746
00:28:32.045 --> 00:28:34.105
we know that road courses in Indie are like the
747
00:28:34.105 --> 00:28:35.585
races we have to capitalize on.
748
00:28:35.765 --> 00:28:37.665
Um, so it's very important for us
749
00:28:37.765 --> 00:28:40.225
to really learn about the tire, learn
750
00:28:40.225 --> 00:28:42.185
how the hybrid effects, you know,
751
00:28:42.235 --> 00:28:45.745
their historical setup here and if any, right.
752
00:28:45.745 --> 00:28:48.985
Because this is, you know, one of six,
753
00:28:48.985 --> 00:28:51.545
seven races on the calendar that we know we, you know,
754
00:28:51.545 --> 00:28:53.865
have our best shot to, to score pretty big point.
755
00:28:54.005 --> 00:28:56.625
So, um, it's an important day, it's a big day
756
00:28:56.645 --> 00:28:59.675
and hopefully it, uh, goes smooth and,
757
00:28:59.675 --> 00:29:01.355
and we can accomplish what we're trying to accomplish.
758
00:29:01.705 --> 00:29:05.155
Love that. What's your, uh, oh, so, all right, so
759
00:29:05.155 --> 00:29:06.275
that's all the driving stuff, I think.
760
00:29:07.155 --> 00:29:08.875
Anything, is there any, is there any news to be missing?
761
00:29:08.875 --> 00:29:11.955
You'd like big news f ones this weekend,
762
00:29:13.135 --> 00:29:14.635
but we'll talk about that next weekend, I'm sure.
763
00:29:14.895 --> 00:29:17.195
Oh wait, did you, did you, um,
764
00:29:17.895 --> 00:29:19.475
did you do a fantasy team or not ?
765
00:29:22.905 --> 00:29:27.385
I am asking because yes, Tim, can you confirm or deny this?
766
00:29:29.295 --> 00:29:32.915
No. Okay, so I have a feeling you didn't That's fine.
767
00:29:33.135 --> 00:29:35.555
You can still join, even though you're a race behind.
768
00:29:35.995 --> 00:29:39.075
I feel like you should do that. So we started that league.
769
00:29:39.155 --> 00:29:40.675
I started the league that you were supposed to join,
770
00:29:40.675 --> 00:29:42.565
that I told everybody you were gonna be in and you're not.
771
00:29:42.565 --> 00:29:43.845
So if you're letting the people down, it's fine.
772
00:29:44.345 --> 00:29:48.445
Um, and, and how many people,
773
00:29:48.585 --> 00:29:50.725
To be fair, to be fair, you didn't say I had to join.
774
00:29:51.385 --> 00:29:52.485
You said true. You're gonna,
775
00:29:52.505 --> 00:29:53.725
you're gonna pretend that you're joining.
776
00:29:54.745 --> 00:29:57.125
I'm downloading it right now. Okay. I forgot. I'm sorry.
777
00:29:57.385 --> 00:29:59.725
The guy that's leading. Oh, how about this?
778
00:30:01.445 --> 00:30:03.465
That's actually hilarious. What?
779
00:30:03.465 --> 00:30:05.665
So I was gonna say, so there's, there's 1,570
780
00:30:05.665 --> 00:30:06.945
players in the league,
781
00:30:07.405 --> 00:30:08.405
In your league.
782
00:30:08.405 --> 00:30:10.225
In my league. Very
Awesome. That's incredible.
783
00:30:10.615 --> 00:30:12.545
Very happy about that turnout. So you don't need
784
00:30:12.605 --> 00:30:14.545
Me, um,
After race one,
785
00:30:14.665 --> 00:30:17.665
I am 367th Okay. Of,
786
00:30:18.245 --> 00:30:19.245
Of it's ahead of me.
787
00:30:19.245 --> 00:30:21.265
1500 very much very far ahead of you.
788
00:30:21.445 --> 00:30:25.225
But as I look the, the person, I don't know,
789
00:30:26.535 --> 00:30:29.255
I, the person, um, that is leading
790
00:30:30.835 --> 00:30:35.265
their like avatar, their, their profile picture is a shot
791
00:30:35.685 --> 00:30:38.945
of, looks to me like the 2016 Indy 500
792
00:30:39.335 --> 00:30:42.905
with one Alex Rossi leading ahead of one James HLA .
793
00:30:43.415 --> 00:30:46.625
Look at us. And I, I just noticed that it's, yeah,
794
00:30:46.625 --> 00:30:48.065
it's a shot of us going into turn
795
00:30:48.085 --> 00:30:49.225
one. How funny is that? Look
796
00:30:49.225 --> 00:30:50.225
At us, pal.
797
00:30:50.225 --> 00:30:52.385
Look at us. So yeah, it's actually really fun.
798
00:30:52.495 --> 00:30:54.065
It's actually like I'm, I'm super,
799
00:30:54.485 --> 00:30:55.505
you know, I suck at fantasy.
800
00:30:56.405 --> 00:30:57.665
I'm getting in now. I'm getting in now.
801
00:30:58.285 --> 00:31:01.345
So I also, um, Fox starting the
802
00:31:01.345 --> 00:31:02.345
League.
803
00:31:02.345 --> 00:31:04.665
Who are you, who are your, who are your five dudes?
804
00:31:05.485 --> 00:31:09.705
So it's, uh, let's see,
Or six dudes,
805
00:31:10.185 --> 00:31:11.185
Whatever you have to do.
806
00:31:11.185 --> 00:31:11.865
So like it's, you have to do six, I know you six
807
00:31:12.105 --> 00:31:13.105
19 have money, right? Yeah.
808
00:31:13.105 --> 00:31:17.025
Yeah. And then, and you have like, um, contracts.
809
00:31:17.535 --> 00:31:18.825
Yeah, yeah, I know that, right? So can you explain
810
00:31:18.825 --> 00:31:19.825
That last time?
811
00:31:19.825 --> 00:31:22.705
So, right. So I, I don't remember how many races
812
00:31:24.435 --> 00:31:26.975
I signed everybody up for.
813
00:31:27.875 --> 00:31:30.055
Oh, okay.
Right. So I don't know. I don't know.
814
00:31:30.175 --> 00:31:31.975
I don't know what my team looks like
815
00:31:32.115 --> 00:31:34.615
for next week if it stays the same one. So
816
00:31:34.615 --> 00:31:35.615
Who, who did you have in St.
817
00:31:35.615 --> 00:31:36.815
Pete? The guy E 300th.
818
00:31:37.315 --> 00:31:39.375
So I had Polo
Smart,
819
00:31:39.795 --> 00:31:41.495
So that worked. I had New Gun.
820
00:31:41.525 --> 00:31:43.645
Yeah.
So that worked.
821
00:31:44.455 --> 00:31:46.745
Where'd he finish?
I had New Gun was third.
822
00:31:47.365 --> 00:31:49.185
Oh yeah,
I had award.
823
00:31:49.505 --> 00:31:51.305
'cause you get points for like passes and stuff, right?
824
00:31:51.405 --> 00:31:54.785
So he passed the most cars, so that was good. Okay. Okay.
825
00:31:54.945 --> 00:31:55.945
I had Calott
826
00:31:56.975 --> 00:32:00.155
Who didn't
Work, started 27th, finished 19th did great.
827
00:32:00.345 --> 00:32:01.435
Made me a lot of points. Okay.
828
00:32:01.825 --> 00:32:03.755
Okay. Oh, dude Breaks join Pal.
829
00:32:04.455 --> 00:32:08.755
It breaks down how they scored their points. Oh, cool.
830
00:32:09.265 --> 00:32:12.475
Okay. So you get something called, oh, so comp would Oh,
831
00:32:12.715 --> 00:32:14.195
assumes laps completed.
832
00:32:14.575 --> 00:32:16.635
So we finish the race, everybody gets the same amount.
833
00:32:16.735 --> 00:32:19.795
All my guys finish the race. That was good. Overtakes.
834
00:32:19.795 --> 00:32:23.415
You get points for that percentage of laps Lead,
835
00:32:23.835 --> 00:32:24.935
you get points for that.
836
00:32:25.855 --> 00:32:30.295
And then there's one other category that says pi,
837
00:32:30.435 --> 00:32:32.775
but I don't know what that stands for. Pi
838
00:32:33.535 --> 00:32:34.535
I as interference.
.
839
00:32:36.765 --> 00:32:39.285
Oh, then you get points for beating your teammate. Mm.
840
00:32:39.715 --> 00:32:41.565
What are it's PCI points? I just signed below.
841
00:32:42.435 --> 00:32:46.605
Okay. Oh yeah. So then I had, I had VK and Rosen as well.
842
00:32:48.515 --> 00:32:50.815
You
I knew that was coming. .
843
00:32:51.795 --> 00:32:53.775
Who did you that Tim,
You would've actually been,
844
00:32:53.955 --> 00:32:55.655
you would've been a good guy because of
845
00:32:55.655 --> 00:32:57.575
where you, uh, finished. Yeah. From where you
846
00:32:57.695 --> 00:32:58.695
Started.
847
00:32:58.695 --> 00:32:59.935
Who, where what, who do you have Tim?
848
00:33:00.415 --> 00:33:01.935
I don't, I don't have this. I,
849
00:33:02.135 --> 00:33:03.975
I wasn't made, I didn't have to do this.
850
00:33:03.975 --> 00:33:06.055
This was a you guys thing. I get to set this one
851
00:33:06.055 --> 00:33:07.055
Out.
852
00:33:07.055 --> 00:33:08.095
Oh, well so far I've just signed Hello.
853
00:33:08.095 --> 00:33:09.135
And I think that's all I'm gonna sign
854
00:33:09.135 --> 00:33:10.135
because I feel like that'll
855
00:33:10.135 --> 00:33:11.135
win.
.
856
00:33:11.595 --> 00:33:16.305
So in the fox, in the fox one, so they did a fox one,
857
00:33:16.425 --> 00:33:17.505
I did a different lineup
858
00:33:18.715 --> 00:33:21.025
and I got more points
859
00:33:22.855 --> 00:33:26.105
that would've put me 13th overall
860
00:33:26.645 --> 00:33:30.665
of the 13,000 players that are on the game. Oh, apparently.
861
00:33:31.295 --> 00:33:34.745
Okay. Well listen, I would join before thermal.
862
00:33:35.665 --> 00:33:37.185
I will do my best to beat you
863
00:33:37.185 --> 00:33:39.825
because that's really all that I would be trying to do.
864
00:33:40.255 --> 00:33:41.345
It's really all it's about. Um,
865
00:33:42.445 --> 00:33:47.425
And yeah, I think, uh, I dunno what else to talk about.
866
00:33:47.425 --> 00:33:50.335
Guys, I got a question. You got Tim's hair. Looks like.
867
00:33:50.795 --> 00:33:52.255
Thanks. It's good to see you two.
868
00:33:52.755 --> 00:33:53.815
Yep. I
Heard it.
869
00:33:54.665 --> 00:33:55.805
I'm trying to remember where I heard this.
870
00:33:56.245 --> 00:33:57.445
Somebody on something.
871
00:33:57.525 --> 00:33:59.445
I dunno if it was on a show of some kind,
872
00:34:00.305 --> 00:34:01.845
you got caught in a mudslide.
873
00:34:01.945 --> 00:34:05.525
Mm. Would you be more worried about getting crushed to death
874
00:34:05.745 --> 00:34:06.965
or suffocating to death?
875
00:34:07.285 --> 00:34:09.645
I feel like I don't do well enough in emergency situations
876
00:34:09.645 --> 00:34:11.925
to have like, the presence of mind to decide
877
00:34:12.075 --> 00:34:13.645
what I'm freaked out about.
878
00:34:13.955 --> 00:34:15.485
Like, I think I'd, I'd be dead
879
00:34:15.485 --> 00:34:16.845
before I knew what to worry about.
880
00:34:17.155 --> 00:34:18.685
Okay. Let me, let me rephrase the question.
881
00:34:18.775 --> 00:34:22.045
Which way would you rather die in a mudslide by suffocating
882
00:34:22.065 --> 00:34:23.365
to death or being crushed to death?
883
00:34:23.505 --> 00:34:25.525
No, I think I'd go to suffocation. Right. Because
884
00:34:25.665 --> 00:34:26.665
No, you wouldn't.
885
00:34:26.665 --> 00:34:27.925
This goes on instant, dude. Yeah, but I mean,
886
00:34:27.925 --> 00:34:28.925
You could be crushed
Slowly.
887
00:34:28.925 --> 00:34:31.765
It's like when you drown, you're like, they, they say you go
888
00:34:31.765 --> 00:34:33.685
through like euphoria or something when you drown.
889
00:34:33.945 --> 00:34:35.965
Oh my God. That's a horrible, that is my biggest fear.
890
00:34:36.035 --> 00:34:38.805
Like, that's the one way I would rather don't say it.
891
00:34:39.295 --> 00:34:42.685
Don't say it . I saw your lips form it. Don't say it
892
00:34:43.345 --> 00:34:44.345
Now.
893
00:34:44.345 --> 00:34:46.325
I gotta know. So number number two would be drowning, right?
894
00:34:46.325 --> 00:34:48.925
Like the worst number one. Definitely burned alive. Yeah.
895
00:34:49.625 --> 00:34:51.165
But like, those are the,
896
00:34:51.305 --> 00:34:52.845
the top two worst ways to go, I think.
897
00:34:53.075 --> 00:34:55.965
Have you guys heard of, uh, oh, what was it called?
898
00:34:56.075 --> 00:34:57.805
It's, it's a, there's a documentary
899
00:34:57.805 --> 00:34:59.285
that's now it's been made a movie.
900
00:34:59.315 --> 00:35:01.125
It's called like LA One Last Breath
901
00:35:01.225 --> 00:35:04.165
or something like that about these divers that have
902
00:35:04.165 --> 00:35:05.965
to go down to work on like the oil rigs and stuff.
903
00:35:06.075 --> 00:35:07.165
Yeah, the wells. Oh
904
00:35:07.165 --> 00:35:08.165
Yeah.
905
00:35:08.165 --> 00:35:08.645
The movie's coming out. Right? The movie's
906
00:35:08.645 --> 00:35:09.645
Coming out.
907
00:35:09.645 --> 00:35:12.685
So we watched the documentary, spoiler alert,
908
00:35:12.795 --> 00:35:14.765
turn down the volume if you don't wanna know
909
00:35:14.875 --> 00:35:16.965
what happens in this show movie
910
00:35:17.145 --> 00:35:18.285
and eventually like documentary
911
00:35:18.345 --> 00:35:19.645
And then eventually movie they go, they go underwater.
912
00:35:19.865 --> 00:35:22.845
So the guy makes it, but okay, he dies like barely.
913
00:35:23.185 --> 00:35:24.885
He runs out of air, he has five minutes of air
914
00:35:25.105 --> 00:35:28.725
and he's down there for like 32 minutes or something. So
915
00:35:28.845 --> 00:35:29.845
You're saying that's a problem.
916
00:35:29.845 --> 00:35:31.125
He couldn't hold his breath for 27 minutes.
917
00:35:31.825 --> 00:35:34.685
He could not so coward, right? Yeah.
918
00:35:34.685 --> 00:35:35.845
But, but he did like,
919
00:35:35.845 --> 00:35:38.285
there's this unbelievable moment at the end of the movie, .
920
00:35:39.225 --> 00:35:40.225
You guys suck.
921
00:35:42.715 --> 00:35:44.125
Okay.
Oh man, there's,
922
00:35:44.125 --> 00:35:45.405
now I can't even say what I was gonna say.
923
00:35:45.405 --> 00:35:46.965
It just ruins the poignant moment. .
924
00:35:48.105 --> 00:35:49.525
But what this guy, but see,
925
00:35:50.065 --> 00:35:51.245
but this guy wouldn't have drowned
926
00:35:51.245 --> 00:35:54.485
because when he lost his air, like he, the hose ripped,
927
00:35:54.545 --> 00:35:55.845
but then he had this backup tank
928
00:35:55.845 --> 00:35:57.205
that's supposed to last for five minutes.
929
00:35:57.205 --> 00:35:59.245
Right? But so he didn't like drown.
930
00:35:59.245 --> 00:36:01.085
He just ran out of air in like an,
931
00:36:01.425 --> 00:36:03.525
in a suit in like a airtight suit.
932
00:36:03.985 --> 00:36:05.325
So that's different than drowning.
933
00:36:05.445 --> 00:36:06.885
'cause drowning iss like the panic that's
934
00:36:06.885 --> 00:36:07.885
Essentially suffocating.
935
00:36:08.315 --> 00:36:09.605
It's suffocating. But he said he
936
00:36:09.605 --> 00:36:10.645
is like, it was really peaceful.
937
00:36:11.035 --> 00:36:12.965
He's like, I was really upset and weird about it.
938
00:36:12.965 --> 00:36:14.365
At first I thought he died. And he is like, then
939
00:36:14.915 --> 00:36:16.485
well he died, but then he, he,
940
00:36:16.485 --> 00:36:17.485
but he did, they brought him back.
941
00:36:17.485 --> 00:36:19.535
Like he, he made it, he he
942
00:36:19.535 --> 00:36:20.535
Hing clipped
It.
943
00:36:20.605 --> 00:36:22.415
Like basically, yeah, like they had a,
944
00:36:22.415 --> 00:36:25.535
they had like a re like a remote little submarine thing
945
00:36:25.535 --> 00:36:27.055
that had a camera on him
946
00:36:27.395 --> 00:36:28.895
and like you saw him twitching at
947
00:36:28.895 --> 00:36:29.975
the end and then stopped twitching.
948
00:36:30.395 --> 00:36:32.895
And then like 10 minutes later they got to him
949
00:36:32.915 --> 00:36:35.295
and you see a guy dragging his lifeless body
950
00:36:35.315 --> 00:36:36.535
up, <inaudible> into the thing.
951
00:36:36.995 --> 00:36:38.215
And then they get him into the thing
952
00:36:38.215 --> 00:36:40.055
and the guy just gave him a couple breaths of air,
953
00:36:40.215 --> 00:36:41.695
CPR style and he woke up.
954
00:36:42.235 --> 00:36:44.175
But he says he remembers the whole thing. It's, and he
955
00:36:44.175 --> 00:36:45.175
Was like's incredible.
956
00:36:45.175 --> 00:36:46.455
He, when he talks to the doctor,
957
00:36:46.455 --> 00:36:47.975
there's like this really crazy moment
958
00:36:47.975 --> 00:36:49.575
where he just has this really like, really
959
00:36:50.095 --> 00:36:51.135
personal moment with the doctor.
960
00:36:51.155 --> 00:36:53.135
And he was like, it's not that bad it.
961
00:36:53.195 --> 00:36:57.215
And I was like, oh my god, . It was so, it was so wild, man.
962
00:36:57.215 --> 00:36:58.975
You should, you should watch the documentary.
963
00:36:59.175 --> 00:37:00.655
'cause it is what happened
964
00:37:00.795 --> 00:37:02.735
to get him stuck down there is so <inaudible>.
965
00:37:02.965 --> 00:37:05.055
Like, it's like a hundred.
966
00:37:05.125 --> 00:37:06.815
It's like, it's like my a hundred things had
967
00:37:06.815 --> 00:37:09.895
to go just wrong at the right time in the right order. What
968
00:37:09.895 --> 00:37:11.975
Was in the, she lined up. Yep. Dude.
969
00:37:12.195 --> 00:37:13.495
Yep. Hundred percent. Is
970
00:37:13.495 --> 00:37:14.495
It bad?
971
00:37:14.495 --> 00:37:15.175
I saw the ad for that movie.
972
00:37:15.395 --> 00:37:17.335
For the, the, not the documentary. Yeah.
973
00:37:17.335 --> 00:37:18.375
For the other moon coming out.
974
00:37:18.375 --> 00:37:19.735
And my thought was like, eh,
975
00:37:19.735 --> 00:37:21.135
I haven't scuba dived in a while. I should go
976
00:37:21.135 --> 00:37:22.135
soon.
.
977
00:37:22.675 --> 00:37:24.295
No, same. This actually. Yeah.
978
00:37:24.555 --> 00:37:25.695
No, but so, so this was,
979
00:37:25.775 --> 00:37:28.255
I don't know if you saw my story the other day on Instagram,
980
00:37:28.755 --> 00:37:30.015
but, well, Becky posted it
981
00:37:30.015 --> 00:37:31.495
and I reposted it 'cause we're watching this.
982
00:37:31.515 --> 00:37:32.575
Oh yeah, yeah, yeah.
983
00:37:32.715 --> 00:37:34.975
So this guy has this very near death experience. Right.
984
00:37:34.975 --> 00:37:35.775
He should have been dead. Like it
985
00:37:35.775 --> 00:37:36.815
doesn't make any sense that he's right.
986
00:37:37.575 --> 00:37:39.615
I dunno. It's near death. I mean that was Yeah,
987
00:37:39.615 --> 00:37:40.855
It's like, it's like past death.
988
00:37:40.885 --> 00:37:43.975
Yeah. Right, right. Death, death experience. Yeah.
989
00:37:45.295 --> 00:37:46.495
I mean, yeah. Great
Point.
990
00:37:46.965 --> 00:37:49.815
Yeah,
He's not near it. Actually.
991
00:37:49.815 --> 00:37:50.975
He was quite far behind him. He was
992
00:37:51.285 --> 00:37:52.335
Past death. I got
993
00:37:52.515 --> 00:37:53.895
Way past death. He was super deaf.
994
00:37:54.365 --> 00:37:58.495
Yeah. Yeah.
And so, uh, so they're like, they're so,
995
00:37:58.495 --> 00:37:59.615
like, it reveals that he
996
00:37:59.615 --> 00:38:00.975
survives and all this stuff or whatever.
997
00:38:01.635 --> 00:38:04.655
And then, and then they, like, the music kind
998
00:38:04.655 --> 00:38:06.695
of starts uplifting and they starts saying some stuff
999
00:38:06.695 --> 00:38:07.695
and I'm sitting there cross sound.
1000
00:38:07.795 --> 00:38:10.295
I'm like, I swear to God if this guy goes back diving again,
1001
00:38:10.395 --> 00:38:12.095
if he goes back to diving, if that's, if
1002
00:38:12.095 --> 00:38:13.215
that's what if he goes back diving.
1003
00:38:13.375 --> 00:38:15.375
I swear to God. And it's like three weeks later,
1004
00:38:15.485 --> 00:38:16.735
mark was back on a dive.
1005
00:38:16.835 --> 00:38:18.175
I'm like, what the fuck? I'm like,
1006
00:38:18.175 --> 00:38:20.495
this guy nearly dies doing this.
1007
00:38:20.715 --> 00:38:22.975
And three weeks later he just jumps back in.
1008
00:38:23.915 --> 00:38:26.015
Didn't nearly die.
Sorry. Sorry.
1009
00:38:26.485 --> 00:38:28.415
This guy literally dies.
1010
00:38:29.035 --> 00:38:30.455
Yep.
Literally dies.
1011
00:38:30.795 --> 00:38:32.295
And three weeks later, just right back,
1012
00:38:32.325 --> 00:38:33.415
just right back in the ocean.
1013
00:38:33.415 --> 00:38:34.935
Like this is, I hate, this is so annoying.
1014
00:38:35.045 --> 00:38:37.205
These people like, this piss me off. And Becky, no
1015
00:38:37.205 --> 00:38:38.325
Self-awareness
Dude.
1016
00:38:38.595 --> 00:38:39.685
Zero. Zero.
1017
00:38:40.205 --> 00:38:42.485
I just like, there was no response
1018
00:38:42.585 --> 00:38:43.845
and I kind of just looked over
1019
00:38:43.945 --> 00:38:46.725
and the look on Becky's face was priceless.
1020
00:38:46.905 --> 00:38:49.715
She was just like, and I'm like,
1021
00:38:50.335 --> 00:38:53.755
oh yes.
1022
00:38:54.945 --> 00:38:57.435
Okay, now I get why the doctors were
1023
00:38:57.435 --> 00:38:59.435
so pissed off when my third question was,
1024
00:38:59.435 --> 00:39:00.835
when can I get back in a race car?
1025
00:39:00.835 --> 00:39:03.675
Yeah. Yeah. Now I get it. Now I understand. Mm-hmm.
1026
00:39:03.675 --> 00:39:05.555
So yeah, it was just a very funny
1027
00:39:05.575 --> 00:39:06.995
moment of lack of self-awareness.
1028
00:39:07.455 --> 00:39:10.155
and, uh, yeah, I deserve to, I deserve
1029
00:39:10.155 --> 00:39:11.235
that look pretty aggressively.
1030
00:39:11.235 --> 00:39:14.075
Yeah. But I do suggest going to watch the, the documentary.
1031
00:39:14.075 --> 00:39:16.075
It's very good. Mark, mark would've hated that response.
1032
00:39:16.495 --> 00:39:18.275
Nah. I mean, doesn't he hate,
1033
00:39:18.875 --> 00:39:20.875
I also just realized with like, you know,
1034
00:39:20.875 --> 00:39:23.155
some pe people have that conversation we just had.
1035
00:39:23.155 --> 00:39:24.275
They're like, oh, you know, how would you
1036
00:39:24.275 --> 00:39:25.355
like to go for you?
1037
00:39:25.355 --> 00:39:27.555
It's like, well next time I think I'd like drag .
1038
00:39:28.065 --> 00:39:30.675
Like, yeah, the first one I wouldn't as big a fan
1039
00:39:30.675 --> 00:39:33.875
of is too messy, too many people involved.
1040
00:39:33.975 --> 00:39:35.315
It was just a lot of work for a lot of people.
1041
00:39:35.435 --> 00:39:37.475
I don't wanna everything I put people out like that sticky.
1042
00:39:37.775 --> 00:39:40.435
It was, yeah. I had to throw out all my clothes.
1043
00:39:40.775 --> 00:39:42.995
It was a whole thing. Whole thing. Yeah. You
1044
00:39:42.995 --> 00:39:43.835
Made it on sports dinner
1045
00:39:45.225 --> 00:39:46.675
Between that and pee in the seat.
1046
00:39:47.105 --> 00:39:48.235
Basically. Anytime,
1047
00:39:48.235 --> 00:39:50.435
Every time you left bodily fluids in a car,
1048
00:39:50.435 --> 00:39:51.755
you've made it on SportsCenter.
1049
00:39:51.895 --> 00:39:54.355
That's the key guys. Alex, there's only,
1050
00:39:54.355 --> 00:39:56.875
there's only one more bodily fluid to use.
1051
00:39:57.175 --> 00:40:00.635
Uh, I can think of a couple. That would be a day, my friend.
1052
00:40:00.695 --> 00:40:02.355
