long ago. And before that, I went, I've been to Paris two previous times before that to watch PNG play. Is it hilly in paris hilly what you mean hilly i mean there must be a lot of hills in paris because they're gonna be there's gold in them their heels because the u.s is on a gold rush hey we getting them left and right ain't we what we getting them left and right i don't know don't know if we incentivized a lot of people, but, hey, just when we thought Noah Lyles was like, oh, man, what a race.

And then we get Cole Hawker in the 1,500 meters, and we're like, oh, my goodness, what a race. And then we get the 400 meters, and that bulldog, that pit bull, Quincy Hall, fourth place coming out of the turn with 100 meters to go. He's like, oh, no, I didn't come this far to come this far. I need that. Listen, what you saw from him, right? There's certain things in life, regardless of the sport that you play,

there's a certain it factor. You know, you hear me say that it factor all the time. Certain individuals have it. What you saw from Quincy, you can't coach that. No. You can't coach that. You. You can't coach that. That's the, you born with that. That's inside.

You know, half of the people coming off that curve like that, right down that stretch, they would feel like they would have gave up. I'm resigned to the fact. A lot of people would have folded up. Yes. Man. Yes. Listen, when people say, and when people talk and say, you know what, an individual has

that dog in them, or an individual has that dog in them or individual has that effect that you can't teach what you saw tonight. You can't teach that from Quincy, bro. You can't teach that. That ain't nothing but hard, man. Guys, we got a special guest joining us. We're going to talk a little later. But Michael Johnson joined us earlier today. We taped something with him. There's a nine hour. There's a nine hour, there's a six hour time difference with Ocho. There's a nine hour time difference with, with me.

And so we got Michael Johnson to have a favor. I've known Michael probably 30 years. I used to be around all the time. Cause one of my former teammates, he had one of my former teammates, a best friend and Croc. And I used to, we used to run,

we was in Vegas and we all over the place together. And so as a favor favor he came on and gave us some insight so we're gonna be uh we're gonna play that interview for you a little later we'll get the track feel a little later but team usa routes nigeria 88 74 they pulled the start of the the score was they were up like 23 24 points with about three minutes to go in the ball two ball, two or three minutes left in the ball game. Asia Wilson was dominant again. Another double-double performance. Nine of 11, two or two from the free throw line, 20 points, 11 rebounds, two assists, two blocks.

Stewie, 13 points. Jackie Young inserted into the starting lineup in place of Diana Taurasi. She was six of 10, three-5 from the free throw line. She chipped in with 15. BG, Brittany Griner, 4-5, 3-4 from the free throw line. Three rebounds, one assist, one steal, one block. She had 11.

All-around performance. Chelsea really haven't found – Chelsea Gray really hadn't found a scoring stroke yet right all three from the uh three uh field goal or one from the free throw line she only had one point hopefully uh as they go look you only got two games left so hopefully she can get give them a little something because had she uh given them a little more than what she gave them this game was really never close so yeah we just nitpicking nowcho, but they dominated from start to finish. Congratulations to the Nigerian team.

I think they're the first South African team to reach this far, right, Ash? They're the first to reach this far. One of my former SSU alums, she's a point guard on this team, so congratulations to her. But the U.S. team moves

on. The american shot 54 percent from the field only 26 uh percent from three but uh really wasn't a matter they dominated the glass 44 to 28 so that was a plus 16 they'll now face australia in the semifinals for a spot in the gold medal round they chased their eighth straight gold medal. They're going to get that. They're going to get that. They're going to get that. Them young ladies are special. Listen, international play, as far as when it's women concerned,

they haven't caught up. They haven't caught up as opposed to how it is on the men's side. Any given game, like you said, one game, it can happen, which is not likely. Which is not likely. But the women are playing phenomenal is which is not likely but which is not likely but the women are playing phenomenal everybody's not on everybody's not playing efficient but they're doing just enough asia wilson leading it leading the pack leading the way all the way

through i'm assuming outside of gold medals is there any other individual awards that the women can win yeah you can win mvp for the tournament yeah asia wilson probably gonna probably gonna leave with the mvp as well so i mean this is i mean for them you know you might as well mail it in mail it in because they're gonna get that they're gonna get that goal well the australians i think in order for the australians to beat the team usa they need to get right bring back a 26 year old lauren jackson she's a three-time former wmba wmba mvp and unless she comes back on that roster i don't i don't really see that happening right the women have really been dominant those two big guns brianna stewart and asia wilson they dominate

um they combine for what 16 rebounds um you know stewie was five of 7 2 of 3 from the 3, Asia was 9 of 11 Jackie Young was 6 of 10 Alicia Thomas was 1 of 1 Brittany BG was 4 of 5 Kelsey Plum was 2 of 3, 2 of 3 from the 3 point line, Khalil Cooper was

2 of 6, 1 of 4 from the 3 and DT was 1 of 3 from the 3 Jewel Lloyd was 0 of three, one of six. Our guards really haven't played well, Ocho, with the exception of Jackie Young and Kelsey Plum. Our guards, Jewel Lloyd, I know she can play better. Khalil Cooper's been kind of hit or miss. Inescu, she hadn't got a whole lot of minutes, a lot of run.

But I'm surprised that our guards haven't played better than what they played. But when you got those big guns at the top, when you get Stewie, you get Asia, BG coming off the bench and doing what she does, nobody

has an answer for those. Until you figure out that. Because all you do, see, you're not problem solving, you're troubleshooting. There's a difference between the two, Ocho. You don't say, okay, you know, I'm just going to troubleshoot

until I can solve the problem. They just troubleshoot. They can't solve this. Nah. And by the time you realize it, they're going to be long. By the time you solve this problem, which is Stewie and Asia,

we're going to be back home. They're going to be coming down to the parade somewhere in their hometown celebrating the gold, the eight straight gold medal in to parade somewhere in their hometown celebrating the gold. There ain't straight gold melting women basketball. But congratulations to the women. Job well done, but it's not complete.

Good job of getting through. You could have easily overlooked this Nigerian team, but that's not what you did. You came out. You handled business like you were supposed to. Man, you guys were in attendance. I saw LeBron. I saw Bam.

I saw D-Book. I saw Bam. I saw a deep book. I saw a lot of people. Michael Phelps was in attendance. Dirk was in attendance. I mean, it was started studying, watching the latest play and hopefully the men. Hey, y'all see how the women did. Yeah. They don't be bull driving around.

They go and drop the hammer on this thing early. They outscored him in the first quarter, 28, 17. I scored him in the second quarter. No, 26, 17. And I scored him in the first quarter, 28-17. Outscored him in the second quarter. No. 26-17. They outscored him in the second quarter, 26-16. Boom. 52-33. All right. Then we come out and do a number on you in the third quarter, 24-13.

Whoop, there it is. It's over. It's over. Ocho, check this out. Yes, sir. Filipinos. He's a Filipino. Carlos Yolo. The first ever male Olympic gold medalist

will get the bag after winning the gold medal in the floor. This is what he gets. He gets a lifetime of free colonoscopies once he turns 45. He's 24 right now. He don't really need it. He gets a fully of free colonoscopies once he turns 45. Okay. He's 24 right now.

He don't really need it. Right. He gets a fully furnished condo worth over $400,000. Woo! He gets a house. Yes, sir. He gets $250,000 in cash. Mm.

He gets an iPhone 16. Okay. He gets two free restaurant franchises, a lifetime of free mac and cheese, grilled chicken, ramen, and more various local from various local restaurants and free college tuition. Hey, where is he from again? The Philippines. He's from the Philippines. Now, you see, I think, you know, see it's a little harder now. It would be a little harder for the U.S. to do this because we have

so many individuals that would win gold, you know, but that's what you call taking care of your athletes that represent your country and win gold. Now that's how you do it. I think that, I mean, actually we can do it with the way we help

other countries as well, based on the money that we send them. We could do, we could do something for athletes a little bit more than 37 goddamn thousand. For sure. That's how you take care of your athletes. Yeah. Yeah. I mean, I, like I said, I mean, it's a, it's, it's tough because the way 37,000, how you

pay for training? Hey, your trainer. Hey, go ahead. All that's going to your trainer that's going to your masseuse that's going to your your therapist therapist

and whatever else you got going on by the time you look up you got $1200 left $1200 you take it out of loan to pay the rest of the people because hey

Ocho they got training in LA trying to charge $400 an hour so if you charge so imagine one of the trainers that's working with you five, six days a week. Yeah. Three hours a day. How much is he charging?

I could imagine. Basically two or three times a week. Right. How much is he charging? The physio. Right. Think about the people that took their family out there. Think about the price, the hotels. But to put your family up for three weeks. Think about the tickets that they had to get a family to sit in the stands and actually have good seats so you can enjoy the events., Ocho, they give you one ticket. You can bring one guest. And they better be sleeping in the room with you because if you got another room, you paying for that with Jack. And when I went, it was $250 a night. I don't know about it. By the time you started going, I don't

know what it was. But when I was at the E-Align, it was $250 a night. I can't remember. Think about what they did in Paris too. Just like they do with flights. When they know an event is coming up, what do companies do? They hike up the price.

Yeah. They hike up the price. So who knows what hotel rooms cost? Who knows what transportation to get to and from the stadium costs? Man, all that add up, man. All that add up. Oh, yeah.

You know, they're going to jack the prices up. It's going to be higher than giraffe hoo-ha. So we already know the prices. Tickets, food, hotels, everything. Trinkets. We ain't factoring eating. You got to eat. You got breakfast, lunch.

You got to have dinner. Yeah. Come on, man. Yeah. I mean, hey, at least I want to treat myself, especially if I win a medal. I want to treat myself. Let me get me one of the old nice croissants.

I heard so much about them. You know what I'm saying? The croissants over there are nice, man. You know what I'm saying? I go to one of those nice, fresh restaurants, baby. You know what I'm saying? You got to drink your coffee and get a little tea with your pinky out.

You got to hang your pinky out. Yeah, that little ass cup with my big ass hand. I'm going to have my three or four fingers out. Oh, man. Maybe we talk some... Maybe have some escargot. You know what I'm saying, Ocho? We got to try all that.

Have who? Snail. Who eating snail? That's a delicacy, Ocho. Man man in what country do people but you want to lick you want to lick toes everything to end with oh you want to do that but you won't eat no escargot who in the world time out come on man come on man let's come back down to earth please i'm from dade county i'm Liberty City. I've never heard of no cargo. Who the hell eats cargo?

No, not cargo. Cargo is like when you put escargot. Okay. Yeah, but y'all hear that? Y'all hear him now. Now all of a sudden, he don't pay at all. I'm from Liberty City. But from Liberty City's finest, he'll lick anything to end with an O.

So you... See, Unc, listen, you're not even living. You're not even living. If you ain't sucking no toes, you ain't no ass, you ain't living. I'm just saying, at some point you have to evolve. You stuck in A... F-Cargo in with a T? With a who? A T.

Now, what you talk about, that's just nasty. That's a delicacy. Where? Don't nobody. Don't nobody.

How much does this cargo cost? Yeah. How much it costs? Ask for it or pull it up. Nobody eat no damn snails. Like, come on, man. Now, maybe if you part of the royal family, you live this luxurious lifestyle and you go to five-star restaurants, maybe then, yes. No.

they put it in the restaurant, but you can go outside and find it after it finished raining? That don't make no sense. Just like you told me you didn't want that spider to bite me. Go out there, eat the wrong snail and see what happens. I bet you'd be cock-roasted in the morning. No, not really. Hands and feet up in the air.

Nobody in the chat. I guarantee you nobody in the chat i guarantee you nobody in our chat had no um espargo i guarantee you that guarantee you escargot i said that that's it yeah just hold on just be just like caviar you don't think caviar the delicacy too now listen i know by caviar you know how i know about caviar? I saw the movie Titanic. In the movie Titanic, they had caviar at the table. I know about caviar. I know about that. I ain't eating that either. I ain't eating no more of it. That ain't even from my palate.

It's who? It comes from sturgeon. Who? It comes from sturgeon. Where do you find sturgeon at? In the ocean. I think off the coast of Russia. What's off the coast? What ocean is off the coast of Russia?

Shoot. The Red Sea? Yeah. Black Sea. Black sturgeon. Yes. Man, listen, man. And it's market price.

A lot of it, sometimes it's like two, three hundred dollars. See, you know what they do they find stuff and they they put their price on it Can they tell you how important it is and then they mark the price up and we paying for it just like sneakers It cost two dollars and make sneakers and sneakers come over here Go make your own in I could I can go ahead do let's see how that work out for you no i'm no because i don't think nobody nobody gonna nobody gonna support me that but ocho think about it in a restaurant when you pay 70 for a steak how much have they actually paid for that steak hey you know what that's a great question i don't know that you do know you know when you go look at when you go to whole Foods or you go to the supermarket,

you want to see a... Whole Foods? Man, I go to Publix and Winn-Dixie, man. Okay, next time you go to Winn-Dixie or Publix, go look and see how much they pay for a steak that you pay $80 for. Well, first of all... Now, remember, the restaurant,

they buying it in bulk. So they pay even less than that. So let's think about it. So even when the supermarket, when they buy, they mark it up. Right. So what you're supposed to... You go to Sam's? Huh? You go to Sam's?

You ever been to Sam's? I have been to Sam's. Yeah, I used to have a car and I don't have a car anymore. Okay, okay, okay, okay. Yeah, I'm real efficient with it. I'm very efficient with it. But I'm just saying, Ocho, you know, that's how business works. Yes, sir. Yes, sir.

I understand that for the most part, but you also have to understand I'm not going to where I'm buying a steak for $70, $80, though. That's not... Even if you buy fish, no matter what you buy, you're paying three times, four times

what it costs for them to make it. How about that? So whatever you buy, okay, you buy pasta, you about that so whatever you buy okay you buy pasta you buy ramen whatever you buy when you pay four dollars five dollars six dollars for that drink it didn't cost that i got a question for you i got one for you right now yes i love there's a jamaican restaurant that i frequent very often also bahama breeze bahama breeze i wouldn't get the jerk chicken pasta from bahama breezeze. Extra chicken, no asparagus.

Now, there's a restaurant in Wynwood called Dunkin' New that I love. I get their jerk chicken pasta. So, are you telling me that they buy their pasta in bulk and it's marked up? That's how restaurants make money.

If everybody sold you something, what they paid for why am i in business right so you you got to make a see you got it so how much did the bingos paid you the bingos paid you x dollars how much you actually think they made off you oh yeah yeah a lot a lot a lot a lot you see how that works yeah i understand that But also, you know what I do like? The places I go to eat and dine at are wage-friendly. It ain't expensive. Like, where I go,

I ain't paying no more than $20. Even more expensive than restaurants, Ocho, the price is marked up two, three times what they actually cost to make it. Right. That's how they stay in business. When people go out of business, why do they go out of business, Ocho?

Shoot, there ain't no customers even if you get customers and for yeah long as you get customers because you pay you charging three four times what it costs right so now i can make a i can i can make a profit make a profit just in business just to keep the lights on. Uh-huh. I mean, I got to put a little something in my pocket, Ocho. Yeah. See, I'm glad you're saying this. So, you know, fellas out there that's being tricked into taking these women to these nice, fancy restaurants and it's marked up you're paying $400, $500 a night.

You see what they do? You see what they do? Ocho. Ocho. But here's the thing. The women, the mistake that women make, they're trying to trick the wrong guys go get the guy that got the money to be tricked you're trying to trick a guy that's making 50 000 you need to go try to trick a guy that's making 1 to 8 10 12 million but you can't because the one that's making 1 to 8 12 million ain't finna talk to them anyway but here

but the thing is is that the guy that's making money, he's trying to get the ones that's looking at the guy. So he got to get tricked off. Yeah. See how that work, Ocho? Yeah. See, so that's bad. That's bad for the middle class, man. Even swap ain't no swindle, Ocho. Well, you ain't never lie about that. If you use me for the pay,

I'll use you for the day. We part ways, we good, Ocho. You get what you... One hand serve the day. We part ways. We good, don't y'all? You get what you... One hand, sir, or the other? Yes! Yeah. So, that's all I'm saying. You know, you can't...

Yes, sir. I mean, you're trying to trick... How you gonna trick a guy that ain't really... He ain't got nothing to be tricked off. Yeah. Yeah. Now, he a fool

if he got... You know, obviously, most people have mortgages or rent or whatever the case may be, card or whatever the case may be. Bills, responsibilities, yes. If you allow a woman to trick you off your money and you ain't got it like that, you got to have disposable income. Yeah.

how she's turning so-called niche into mainstream gold, connecting audiences with stories that truly make them feel seen. What others dismiss as niche, we embrace as core.

It became known as the Iran-Contra affair. And I'm not taking any more questions in just a second. I'm going to ask Attorney General... I'm Leon Nafok, co-creator of Slow Burn. In my podcast, Fiasco, Iran-Contra, you'll hear all the unbelievable details of a scandal that captivated the nation nearly 40 years ago,

Float like a butterfly, sting like a bee, your hands can't hit what your eyes can't see. Muhammad Ali was never afraid to express himself loudly and boldly and stays true to form in Ali and Me, an eight-part Audible original. Guided by his own words, this series explores Ali's life and legacy through never-before-heard audio recordings and discussions with those who knew him best. Muhammad had this real sense of his own personal values and principles, things he believed in, his own sense of conviction. Those convictions never wavered. Hosted by Muhammad's wife, Lani Ali, and his close friend, award-winning broadcaster, John Ramsey, Ali and Me goes beyond the boxing ring to delve deeply into Ali's extraordinary life through conversations with Billy Crystal, Mike Tyson, Rosie Perez, Common, Will Smith,

and Bob Costas. It created a North Star for me of how I want to be in the world, you know. As a child, as a young person, he gave credence to my audacity. There's no debate that this is the greatest global sports figure of all I've found.

I go to Instagrams and I look at people's pages and I look at what they have on, what they're wearing. And I'm not i'm not pocket watching but i'll add up i'll add up knowing the price of stuff and i'll go through five

pictures and i'll be like well goddamn now that's about goddamn eighty thousand dollars right there yes and i don't even know who man who is you you know and just you know and i just go about my day just just think about it. It's a facade. It's not, that's not real life. It's not reality. It can fool a lot of people. Those aesthetics can fool a lot of people now. Right.

Oh yeah, for sure. And that's, and that's what happens. Right. You get people in debt. I mean, think about, just think about how much credit card debt. You know me, I've always, you know, Hey, I'm paying it off at the end. Whatever the case may be, I'm only going to spend what I could afford to get off of in a given month.

I got my monthly allowance, what I can spend. I'm trying to stay below that so at the end of the year, if I choose to get me something, I can get me something. But man, if you look at Instagram, man, they had me calling my agent, hey man, I need to renegotiate my

contract. Don't believe it. It's all a facade. Don't believe it at all. Yeah, I'm like, come on, man. Yeah, but they ain't doing it like that, Ocho. They ain't doing it like that. I know better, man. I know better. You know I know better.

Well, even if they are, I ain't doing it like that trying to keep up with your ass. And I ain't doing it like that trying to impress you. I got what I got. I got a nice home. The water works. The air works. I got a car. You got a car

I've had, had a Ferrari, had a Bentley, had a Rolls Royce, had a 600 Benz, had a Range Rover and a Denali. Yeah. In order to drive the Ferrari, I got to drive two cars down the hill, walk back up the hill to get the Ferrari to pull out. Then I pull the Ferrari back in.

I think we all have. We all have had that. I had that stage for maybe two years. I had that stage for maybe two years. And I got to a point where I was like, well, you know what? This is a waste. This is, I mean, not really a waste because you're supposed to enjoy

your fruits of your labor. Yeah, for sure. What we do as athletes is we get caught up in the image. Yeah. We get caught up in the, all right, I have to dress like this. All right, I got to buy the jewelry.

I got to wear the jewelry. I got to look a certain way. I have to drive a certain car. But with anything, really the value is really set. It's within you. The bigger you can make your name, the less you need all the fucking accessories. Well, I got to a point, I got to about year four or five. Well, hell, I didn't need no damn Ferrari.

Hell, I didn't need no goddamn Rolls Royce. I didn't need all the extra shit at that point because I was Ocho. Yeah. The visibility. No matter where I went, you knew who it was.

I think we won two medals in 1984 when the games were in U.S. men's weightlifting medal in 40 years. Basically, you got to go back. I think we won two medals in 1984 when the games were in L.A.

that wasn't good. See? Ocho, you see how your boy ain't? You little boy. You see your boy had those 60 kilograms. What? Yeah, yeah, yeah. I forgot to see my video

doing the 100 dumbbells. That's 260. You see what I'm saying, my video doing the 100 dumbbells. So that's 260. You see what I'm saying, Ocho? Yeah. You ain't 180. You ain't 180. 210.

Your boy in. I'm all in. 220. I had a plenty. Plenty, yeah. Yeah. Come on, man. Yeah.

230. I get real dirty. I'm just saying, Ocho. I'm just saying. I just want you'm just saying I just want you to know that's all I'm saying right there French track and field athlete Alison Furno

yeah that's what I'm talking about man competed in the 3000m steeplechase event finishing 4th in the race, having just missed the podium by three seconds. Although she didn't secure a medal, she finished with a time of 8 minutes, 58.67 seconds, breaking the European steeplechase

record. After the race, she surprised her boyfriend by lowering to one knee and proposing to him. He accepted her proposal and the two embraced in the crowd applauded. That's right.

Listen, she might not have met. Listen, she might not have met him, but she just like Jamie Foxx or Denzel said, I'm leaving here with something. She is. She said she said that if I run under nine minutes,

which she ran eight minutes, eight minutes, 58 some change. Yes, sir. And they had been together for nine years. Oh, I see. I see. Ah, I see. That's better context.

That's better context. But I like it. I like it. Listen, F the traditions. Forget the traditions. I know how things are supposed to go. The man is supposed to go the man is supposed to propose it's supposed to be romantic forget that i think more women need to be assertive

and propose to your man matter of fact be assertive and propose to your man you'll find out you're wasting your time anyway because you're probably gonna say no right you probably have no have no plan to marry you anyway so i mean it mean, it'll save you some time. If you took the initiative and been assertive and proposed to your man and watch what happened. Watch how much time you save. Because half of them, if a hundred of y'all

are in relationships right now, he'd probably say no. I'll tell you no lie. And probably ain't got no plan on marrying you. So I kudos to her because I know a lot of women that's frowned upon.

Yeah, for sure. I would never do nothing like that. But here's the thing. Come on, man. We have non-traditional women that want traditional values. Right. You can't have both, man.

You can't have it both ways. I ain't cooking for no man or I want him to propose. I ain't doing this. I want him to open doors. I ain't doing this no man or I want him to propose. I ain't doing this. I want him to open doors. I ain't doing this, but I need him to do that. Well, damn. You want traditional, but you're non-traditional.

Right. And times are different now. I love my women, all of them. Whatever your expectations are, whatever you feel you are worthy of, by all means, go for it. At times, those expectations are unrealistic. But if you think you're going to find it, if your hope is romantic, I want you to go for what you want. I want you to. But sometimes you got to be assertive.

Sometimes you got to take the initiative, especially when there's somebody you want. Right now, slide in the DM. Holler at him. Stop sitting around waiting. Forget eye contact. Have some cojones. Put them over his boots. No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.

What? What happened? Don't even look. Hey, you need to tell me. You need to come and say, hey, excuse you shannon sharp right right i'm gonna say yes i find you very attractive there we go can i give you my phone number yeah yeah oh not with this me too movement don't you look at me and smile ain't no winking i ain't doing none of that right right you never gonna have oh shannon sharp made me feel uncomfortable oh no i don't even open the right, right. Because you're never going to have, oh, Shannon Sharp made me feel uncomfortable.

Oh, no. I don't even open the door for her, Mocho. You're never going to talk about Shannon Sharp open the door and look at my butt. I'm going to let that door slam right on your foot. I see where you're going. I see where you're going. I'm telling you. So if you come in behind me, the door will probably hit you in the head if you're not paying attention.

Because you're never going to get me. Y'all done ruined it. I don't get on no elevator. I don't care if you got on baby. You did'm just telling you say that because y'all y'all done ruined it anytime somebody say you can't say a woman look nice you can't say that's a great outfit you have right right right before they take it some type of way and here you are you in hr and no yeah so yeah i'm done with it.

We dive into the competitive world of streaming, how she's turning so-called niche into mainstream gold, connecting audiences with stories that truly make them feel seen. What others dismiss as niche, we embrace as core. It's this idea that there are so many stories out there, and if you can find a way to curate and help the right person discover the right content, the term that we always hear from our audience is that they feel seen. Get a front row seat to where media, marketing, technology, entertainment, and sports collide.

he picked the best time to post a personal best the fourth fastest time ever let that sink in the fourth fastest time ever in a comfort behind victory

he ran the I mean, exhausted. Yeah. Hey, he left it on the track. That's what you call when coach say, leave it out there. When somebody tell you, leave it all out there. And then, hold on, not only to leave it all out there, to leave it out there

in the biggest, on the biggest stage in a pressure moment like that. Were you in fourth place? You weren't even on the biggest stage in a pressure moment like that. Were you in fourth place? You weren't even on the podium coming off that goddamn curve. You weren't even in the podium. But look at the times. You had four guys that ran sub 44.

Yeah. I mean, you had so many guys. I mean, Hudson Smith, he ran a personal best. You had, I forget the other guy from Namibia. Is it Namibia? Is it Namibia or Namibia? Namibia? Namibia.

He ran a national record. We know from Grenada. What's his name? I can't get his name. But he won the gold medal. He's won a silver medal. He's been a bronze medal. He's been a world champion. So we know what he represents from gold medal. He's won a silver medal. He's been a bronze medal. He's been a world champion.

So we know what he represents from Grenada. Mm-hmm. Bruh, and when you exhausted, Ocho, we've all been there. If you're an athlete,

you know what it's like to be dog tired. Yeah. I'm talking about, hey, and you don't want to go, but there's something that's inside of you.

Mm-hmm. It says, bro, you got all that training. Mm-hmm. If that's what people don't want to go, but there's something that's inside of you. It says, bro, you got all that training. That's what people don't get. Training comes down to a moment. We talk about it all the time. Football games come down to a moment. Not the entirety

of the game. It's a moment. Will you capture that moment when it's time? He did that. That joke, he don't have the prettiest form. It ain't no this. Hey,

he threw that head. You know, when I saw him throw them head back. Back. You know what time it is. I need all that. Remind me when I was in the country, I had on shorts.

I was barefooted with no shirt on, and I'm racing my brother and cousin there. So far, I'm out the window. I'm trying to come in first. Yeah, that's it. But boy, he dug down. Yeah, he did. He did. And you can't tease that, man. That's hard. That's hard.

He ran the final 50 meters in 5.9 seconds, the best in the field. Ocho, you went back and forth with him on Twitter today. Yeah, that's my dog, man. That's my dog. So, you know, he hits you. You know, talk about, you know, y'all still paying. I told him, man, shoot, if you want some money, when you come back to the States,

we can line it up and do a full budget. And listen, I'm just saying listen there's pressure in that environment in paris representing your country but it's a different kind of pressure when you got the race against me you got a race because and listen let me tell you let me tell you about me in high school right i was i was a the class six day state champ in the 400 now i a 42. I ran a 42 in high school, but my coach and my grandma told me I had to pick between track or football. So, football was my route.

So, listen, my record still stands to this day, and Quincy hit me back like, okay, bet. I give you 30 meters. I give you 30 meters, and I still beat you. So, we got that lined up. We're going to race. We're going to race. We're going to race when you get back to the States.

And if he beat me, he get 25 grand. Karani James, that's the Grenadian. He's won the Olympic gold. He's won silver. He's won bronze. He was off the podium. I think he ran 43.8. Obviously, we saw Quincy Hall run 43.4.

Hudson Smith run 43.8. Obviously, we saw Quincy Hall run 43.4. Hudson Smith run 43.44. I mean, bro, I mean, that was some back and forth running. I mean, it's been a long time since we've seen a race of that disc, but the 400 comes down to that. Which race, which finish do you think was better? Quincy's or with Mr. Hoker? Is it Hoker?

I said, yeah, 1500. Cole Hawker. Which finish you think was better? Both were unexpected. Yeah. You got a guy that had, he has, I think Inga Brisson has like the second or third fastest 1500 meters ever. The is 326 flat by elgar ruch um inger brisson ran 326 98 78 something like that right uh and then you had josh kerr so you had the reigning olympic champ you had the reigning world champ in that field and he outkicked them all. You had Quincy Hall.

Now, Quincy Hall had the fastest time and then Hudson Smith in a tune-up meet before the Olympics broke that. He ran like 43-74, 43-75 to take over the world lead. Yeah.

If I have to say, considering we haven't won now matthew sent the wits he did win the 1500 meters in 2016 in rio but his time was really slow right um we haven't won we haven't run this race since 2000 we had seven straight from 84 to 2008 we what it wasn't close we we did it we did right a lot of times we swept the podium um damn oh joe given who Cole Hawker beat, the reigning Olympic, the reigning world champ at 1,500 meters. Right. You think that finish is better?

We thought that Quincy Hall was going to at least make the podium considering the way he had been running. Right. We thought he would make the podium. Mm-hmm. I don't think anybody thought because Jared Neguse had a faster time coming into it.

When you beat your record by three full seconds. Right. I'm splitting hairs because we got a fact that no allows. I mean, look what it came down to. But the America, like I said, we were talking about it earlier at the uh but the america that and it like i said we was talking about it earlier at the top of the broadcast it's like just when we thought man ain't nothing topping this 100 meter finals right right and then cole hawker says watch this yeah and everybody was talking about cole man look at cole look at cole and quinnson say hello bro hold my hold my beer quinnson say hold my. Let me show you something. Yeah.

Ocho, we got to talk about this. What happened? You made me nervous right there. No. You got excited, right? You got excited. Michael Norman. Michael Norman has too much talent. Yeah, you scared me.

Okay, okay. He got too much talent, Ocho me okay he got too much talent Ocho to finish it last you think the pressure got to him it always does in the big meets the man has run 43-4 and he looked good and qualifying

he ran 44-10 and then he goes 44-26 which is okay but he looked like he was laboring the man goes 44-26 which is okay but he looked like he was laboring the man ran 45-26 his legs it gotta be his legs it's his mind

he ain't got that where Quincy got any and his coach is Quincy Watts who won the 92 goal who also trains right Who won the 92 goal. Right. Who also trains right. But, and Joanna Hayes.

Joanna Hayes, she won the goal. I'm trying to think what year Joanna won. Was it 2004? What year did Joanna Hayes win the hurdles? Is it the 2000 or 2004? Damn. Yeah, she won in 04.

Well, at that moment, you said it's about moments. Sometimes it's difficult to show up in that moment. A different side of you has to come out. But you know what, Ocho? We are what we repeatedly do right therefore it is not a singular act it's a habit he has a habit in big moments of doing this hold on i gotta write that down hold on we are wait i say how you say that? We are what? We are what we repeatedly do. Therefore, it is not a singular act.

It is a habit. Habit. You are what we do. If all you do is lie, how can I call you anything else but a liar? Well, that's a good one. I got to say that for my next argument. In big moments, in Tokyokyo his mom he's of asian descent his mom is from japan i just knew uh i think it was the year after fred and he was

he was a prodigy yes sir from the go so after fred curly runs the fastest time in NCAA history, he comes behind him and break Fred Curley's record. He's running routinely sub 44. Right. I think he's running 43, 49, 43, 40 something. And in big moments. Yeah. Oh. You see the difference?

You see Fred Curley? Fred Curley this year, he had some injuries he had some had some shoe issues he had block issues but boy when it come time like like black cat said boy boy when we line up on that line we gonna see who the best yeah yeah yeah quincy hall hey let's line it up right right we ain't We ain't got to do all that talking. All that. You all the bumping your gums. And what are we doing? I was talking. Right. Spikes on. Yeah. Everybody different. Everybody. Everybody's built. Some people are built for that pressure moment in that big stage. And some people aren't. Some people fold. Some people don't. Some people welcome it. Some people shy away from it. It's all depending on how you're built. I'm not putting 9 Michael Normal on that

4x4. He ain't coming nowhere near it. Rob Benjamin is going to run ankle leg because he has the most experience in the Olympics and World Championships of running that. Quincy Hall is going to probably run second leg. I'm going to take Dedman and I'm going to take

Vernon Norwood. I'm going to take the guy that finished, I think he finished like six or seven. He was an American. He ran like 44.6. Who are the other American that finished the race? I'm not putting Michael Norman on there.

I'm sorry. I'm sorry, guys. I just can't do it. I can't trust him. Yeah. Damn. Now, we good enough? Look, our quarter-miners, we're good enough. Yeah. With Quincy, because if it's close, Rye is a low 44 guy.

So I know on the fly, he can run sub-44. Quincy Hall just proved Quincy Hall on the fly he can run sub 44 quincy hall just proved quincy hall can on a fly he can be really low 43 he might be 43 243 one um and so i'm gonna take uh i think it's bailey i think bailey is his last name but i'm taking i'm taking bay i'm taking rye i'm taking quincy i'm taking bailey and i'm taking Quincy. I'm taking Bailey. And I'm either taking Deadman or Vernon Norwood. Normally I like Vernon Norwood start because he normally going to give me a consistent mid 44.

I can live with that. I can live with that. I'm going to let second leg be Quincy because I need him. If I don't have space, I need him to open up. And then I'll go to bailey and then i'll let brian bring it home right i like it yeah yeah i just i just i just can't i just can't i i just i just can't rob benjamin said on the hopes that more american fans can get behind and support noah lives noah has been guarding a lot of hate from U.S. fans, and it's kind of sad

to see. He was depressed in 2021. A lot of people like to say, let's focus on mental health and da-da-da. You go out and trash a kid because he's chasing his dream, and he's doing things and speaking things into fruition. So from my tweet wasn't geared towards

anyone specific, fractions of track community. I got some hate too of a lot of people saying, okay, if I don't win, then they're going to be on my head. It's just kind of sad to be honest with you. My whole thing is don't preach mental health

and then go do that. I agree because the guy we were talking about yesterday, Franklin, you know what he tweeted? He's saying right now one of his least favorite Americans is Noah Lyles. Yeah. I'm not saying, name the country.

What Jamaican you think they're going to treat and say my least favorite Jamaican is Kastane Thompson. My least favorite, my least Jamaican is Sharika Jackson, or Shelly Ann Frazier, or Hansel Parchment. Which one?

Okay, what other country? Give me a country. Give me a country. Great Britain, France, but that's what we do. But what is Franklin? Who Franklin look like? Is he the completion of Noah? And they wonder why.

Yeah. So you can keep that to yourself. You wanted the world to know. You wanted the entire world to know that your least favorite American, somebody that has done something that hadn't been done in 20 years, stood at the top of the podium at the Olympics at the 100-meter dash, and you say your least favorite American. I just want to know why.

Because everything that he's saying who's celebrating more? Usain Bolt. Usain. Usain was doing all this in front of the camera and I ain't got no problem with it. He told he doing the lightning bolt. Muhammad Ali spoke it. That's

something personal. That's something personal. There might be something we don't know about because there's reason there's no reason not to like someone someone you don't even know

specifically but you know how we do we cast a stone on people that we might not like based on whatever he might not like the way he carries himself

hell he might not like the way he run he might not like the fact that he paints his nails whatever it may be there's a reason he doesn't like him. It can't be because of track. Because he's the gold medal winning 100. Can't be because of that.

That's something personal. But I just want the other communities to say my least favorite Asian American is somebody that's participating for their country. They don't get that. No. The whites, they don't do that to you. Us. But we quit. Let's support.

And the first chance we get, we'll trash one another. Yeah. Always. It's always been like that. It's always been like that. I just need somebody to explain. And context. I just need to know noah lyles is your least favorite american you know everybody ain't gonna like everybody you know how that go

there's always gonna be something everybody not gonna be might not be your cup of tea there's nothing you could do about that you might they probably don't even know you. How do you like somebody that you don't even know? I guarantee that man ain't never met no allies. You normally, you're supposed to have a disliking for somebody that, and that's me, Ocho, because here's my thing. Everybody's like, man, I don't like such and such. Okay. But he ain't done nothing to me.

I don't know him. I don't know her. So why am I disliking him? Because you dislike him? Mm-hmm. It always got to be. Yeah, that's the way we are. We've always been like that.

That's just society. That's just human nature. You know, everybody's not going to like everybody. Everybody's not going to be everybody's cup of tea. That's why you just focus on those that do like you. Mm-hmm. And if you're out there running for us, you run for those who support you. Those who don't support you.

Fuck them. I just I just want to be bad. I just want I just want like I just want us to support one another. Don't talk about it. Let's be about it. Yeah. In all things. Yeah.

I just I just like you said, look. And like like Ryan said, you, uh, and like, like Ryan said, you know, uh, mental health, mental health, man.

They, listen, that's just, I mean, um, but this is a doggy dog world, right? It's a doggy dog world.

And you, you, they, they, they, they could only protect you for so long. They could only protect you for so long. They can only protect you for so long. When you're out there in that real world,

people don't care about you. They don't care nothing about you. They're going to say what they want to. They're going to trash you. They're going to talk about you. You know, they're going to throw that stone. They're going to hide that hand. They're going to play victim.

You know, mental health is very important. But in the real world, they can only protect you for so long. Ocho had no allows, did all that talking and celebrating, said, I'm the fastest man. He hopping up. They got pictures of steel shots. He hopping up his butt, hiding people's heads.

He done jumped up off the ground. Yeah. Now, he don't make the podium or he finish last place. Okay. Man, you did all that talking. Right. And look what happened. Okay.

But to go as far as says he's like one of my least favorite Americans right now. Yeah. Of all the people. Yeah. But like you said, to each his own. Noah, you got more people that support you and like you that don't support you and don't like you. So, hey, Noah Lyles advanced into 200 meters, but he only finished second

in his heat behind Tobago. Huh? I think he did it on purpose because he did the same thing in the semis in the 100. Nah, that's a different choice. I think he won't that far lane. But you don't know what lane you're going to get. What lane are you going to get?

Because of the fastest time get lane choice yeah well who had the fastest time arian tobogo he his time was faster than um yeah he's the only one to go sub he was the only one to go sub if i'm not mistaken to go sub 20 and and if you go back and look when when Noah ran one of his fastest time, Tobogo pushed him all the way to the line. They both ran 9.5, if I'm not mistaken. So we know Noah has the American record of 1931. But go look at Tobogo time.

Now, he ain't no slouch now. Oh, no, not at all. He broke. Michael Johnson had the world record of 300 meters. Wade Van Neekert broke Michael's record, Tobogo broke Neekert's record so he has speed and he had his endurance

plus he's a low 44 400 guy so that means he got strength. So that means, yeah, that means he got strength and endurance to burn. Yeah. Yeah, but I don't know, boy.

I think he play, Noah playing chess. He going to double. I think he going to double. He going to double. Oh, I hope he does. Wait, when is the final? When is the final? Huh?

You want to get one of those preferential lanes. Right, right, right, right. Five, six, seven. Mm-hmm. Because I want to be at the top of the curve, Bocho. I want to be at the top of the curve. Mm-hmm. Catch them if you can.

Yeah. When is the final? Oh, they got one more day. It's tomorrow. Tomorrow? Tomorrow, yeah. Yeah. When is the final? Or they got one more day? Tomorrow. Tomorrow? Tomorrow, yeah. At what, 2 o'clock?

Well, is it 12th? Oh, Lyle's got lane five. Oh, okay. That's a good lane. Oh, he good. He good. He good. Oh, yeah. Toboggan must be at lane six.

Because at the first time, you get the preference. Some people like, you know, four, five, six. Four, five, yeah. A lot of times you look at Carson Warhol. He likes to be in the far lane. He likes to be in lane seven. Right. Some people like the far lane. 11.30 our time?

2.30 your time, Mocho. 11.30 our time. All right. Bet. Bet. If you remember when Wade Van Neekert, when he broke the world record in Rio, he was in lane eight. And they couldn't catch him, Ocho. Yeah, if you're on your horse, if you're on your horse in lane eight, you're already out there.

It's hard. But here's the thing, Ocho, it's hard to gauge. Because they're pacing off you, but you don't know what's going on behind you. He just took off. He took off. You got to go. And LeSean Merritt and Karani James, they couldn't catch him.

I mean, but he ran a race of a lifetime. He ran 4303. Do you know how, like I said, I'm old enough to remember when a lot of the world, I mean, I've seen a hundred go down so many times. I mean, from the eighties to the when a lot of the world, I mean, I've seen the 100 go down so many times.

I mean, from the 80s to the 90s to now, the 400. I remember when Butch broke the record in 88 and then Michael broke it in 99 in Seville and then me, Kurt, broke it in 2016. So I'm old enough to remember that. I've seen a lot of, you know, 40 sub. I didn't think somebody could run. I didn't think he could run that fast. Right. that fast. Right.

That fast. I mean, people don't realize how sub 44? Yeah. He almost ran sub 43. There's only been two men in the history to ever run sub 43 on the fly. That's on the fly. Right. Michael Johnson and Jeremy Warner. This dude ran 4303 from a dead stop.
