Starting point is 00:00:00 You're listening to an iHeart Podcast. The Made for This Mountain podcast exists to empower listeners to rise above their inner struggles and face the mountain in front of them. So during Mental Health Awareness Month, tune into the podcast, focus on your emotional well-being, and then climb that mountain. You will never be able to change or grow through the thing that you refuse to identify, the thing that you refuse to say, hey, this is my mountain. This is the struggle. Listen to Made for This Mountain on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts.
Starting point is 00:00:35 I'm Michael Kassin, founder and CEO of 3C Ventures and your guide on good company. The podcast where I sit down with the boldest innovators shaping what's next. In this episode, I'm joined by Anjali Sood, CEO of Tubi. We dive into the competitive world of streaming. What others dismiss as niche, we embrace as core. 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. Listen to Good Company on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts.
Starting point is 00:01:16 In the fall of 1986, Ronald Reagan found himself at the center of a massive scandal that looked like it might bring down his presidency. It became known as the Iran-Contra affair. The things that happened were so bizarre and insane, I can't begin to tell you. Please do.
Starting point is 00:01:38 To hear the whole story, listen to Fiasco, Iran-Contra on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. The volume. The Knicks escape with a 94-93 victory and the 3-1 lead in the best of seven in the first round series against the Pistons. The refs screwed the Pistons out of game-winning free throws.
Starting point is 00:02:15 Officials acknowledged after the game that one huge was missed today on the final play. With the Knicks leading by one, Tim Hardaway Jr. drew contact from Josh Hart as Hardaway went up for the potential game-winning shot with.03 seconds. Three-point attempt misfired. Even Josh Hart admits he made contact. Jalen Brunson, 32 points, 11 assists.
Starting point is 00:02:37 Cat, 27 points, 9 rebounds. Outscored the Pistons, those two, 23-22 in the fourth quarter. And they combined for the Knicks' final seven buckets. I don't know. The official was standing right there, GP. Not only did he get it with his body, he got it on his arm. Yeah. See, Shad, I hate this.
Starting point is 00:02:57 You can't call that? No, no, no. No calling after the game. Call it during the game. I hate when they go and they look at it and they say, we made a mistake. Why are you telling me now? Right. I lost the game call the door of the game see I hate when they go and they look at it and they say we made a mistake why are you telling me now
Starting point is 00:03:07 I lost the game you should have you should have played today that's why I hate this replay crap and all that man and these challenges
Starting point is 00:03:16 because y'all understand y'all missed the play and you missed the call so don't tip after the game over because you lost the game
Starting point is 00:03:23 if you make this call I go and make two free throws and we win the game you feel me that's. So don't tip after the game over because you lost the game. If you make this call, I go and make two free throws and we win the game. You feel me? That's why I don't like this basketball, man. Y'all got to make the... The NBA has to get better
Starting point is 00:03:35 on these games, man. They got to. They got to give these coaches and everybody more challenges. You got to get more challenges because you're losing games. And you're going to tell me now, I'm sorry.
Starting point is 00:03:52 You're sorry? What? I'm down 3-1. I'm sorry? What are you talking about? And it's supposed to be 2-2. And it's a change of whole the domains of this whole game and all this thing. So now you talking about now I got to go home and say, oh, I'm sorry.
Starting point is 00:04:11 And then you're going to admit to me after the game. They have to change this, man. They got to change this game, man. And they say, man, when you want to challenge, challenge it. You feel me? And that's just the way it got to be. And you just tell me i missed it ah man now what i'm supposed to do is say okay i'm sorry okay you cool okay man you missed it
Starting point is 00:04:35 no you're crazy you lost me the game and that's what it is. So they got to be more consistent. They got to be more there. And the NBA got to figure it out, man. You cannot keep missing calls and letting these referees dictate these games. Because these young fellas is playing hard. And that Detroit team didn't deserve that. They didn't deserve it. Right. Cat. Man, Cat down the stretch.
Starting point is 00:05:03 That shot that Cat hit from the baseline, falling out of the final GP, that might have been Cat's best shot of his career. Unreal. It reminds you of Kawhi Leonard at Toronto. Make that big shot to win the basketball game. You know what I'm saying? He made a hell of a shot, man.
Starting point is 00:05:22 And it is what it is. He's the type of player. Swish is. He's a type of player. Swish it. He's a type of player who makes shots like that and ready for it. It is what it is, man. But I just say I hate losing a game on a call from a referee. I just don't like that. I don't like that.
Starting point is 00:05:41 Let me clear. I don't either. Don't tell me about it. Let social media, let everybody say they missed that call. But don't you come. Let me hear. I don't either. Don't tell me about it. Hey, let everybody, let social media, let everybody say they missed that call. But don't you come out with that report. Hey, that wasn't even too important. That was the pool reporter. He's like, yeah, we missed it.
Starting point is 00:05:53 Man, I hate that. See, and then you come back after the game and say, I missed it. Man, you going to make me mad more mad. You know what I'm saying? You make me more mad. You know what I'm saying? I'm mad because I lost, but I know I got fouled. And then you're going to tell me I missed?
Starting point is 00:06:09 Come on. And come on. Yeah. It reminds me of that perfect game that Jim Joyce blew. Andres Galarraga had a perfect game. He beat the guy to the bag, Ocho. Jim Joyce called him safe, had him out, and… And I'm probably never the same.
Starting point is 00:06:27 He cried. And he was like, hey, I cost this kid a perfect game. Yes, sir. And he did. Same thing in the 85 World Series, St. Louis Cardinals. I think Donnie Durkin was the official. He blew the call. Roy's goal, score, and win the World Series.
Starting point is 00:06:50 I mean, you know, you hate things like that. You're like, well, Shannon, they are human. And they are. They are. But, boy, as the team that's on the losing side of that, man, damn it, I ain't trying to hear that. I don't want to. I ain't trying to hear none of that.
Starting point is 00:07:03 But you got to give it a look. Jalen Brunson was clutch before him the other year. You see why. You see why he deserved that award. Cat, this is what I'm talking about. We get frustrated with Cat because we see a guy seven foot tall with so much ability. And sometimes he's settled, GP. He wants to hang around the three.
Starting point is 00:07:23 Cat, get your seven foot, big butt down on that block and post up and shoot that turnaround or put the ball on the floor because you have that kind of ability and finish at the rim. And see, Chad, that's why I'm so biased, man, because my arrow was our weapon was the big thing. Put your big butt down there and make the food. Thank you, man. You feel me? If they double you, kick it. We do what we want to.
Starting point is 00:07:51 And look how effective he is when he's down there. Stop being a strength and shooting all these threes, man. I hate this game. Because when you're running three on one and everybody running to the three-point line and they miss it, well, we can make a difference if we get a bucket and put pressure on these dudes, man.
Starting point is 00:08:13 And that's what I like about him. He's starting to now say, forget it, let me go get a bucket and put pressure on these dudes and make them be accountable and say, yo, you don't have to come down here and score again because if you don't, I'm going to go back down here and score a bucket and get me two.
Starting point is 00:08:31 It don't matter. It ain't number one point. Two or three. Get it. Go get it. Because if I go down the floor five times and I score two buckets and they shoot five threes and miss, what am I? Nothing.
Starting point is 00:08:47 It's going to be hard for you to come back. And I'm playing D. So that's what I don't... But they don't play D no more. They don't play D no more, G.P. That's why I don't like doing these games. I hate that because I be like, I'm going to get a steal.
Starting point is 00:09:03 I'm going to play D. I'm going to do this. And it's crazy to play deep. I'm going to do this. And it's crazy to me that y'all don't want to play defense. It's crazy. Nah. Ain't nobody. I mean, back then you had guys known for defense. Now everybody tried to put it in the bucket.
Starting point is 00:09:17 Everybody tried to get max contract by scoring a bunch of points. And I get it. I ain't mad at them because I see what these salaries. And GP, guys make it 40, 50, 60. Joker about to sign a contract three years, 218, 219 million. He's going to get
Starting point is 00:09:33 222. 222, okay. 70 million a year. You look at Butler. He just got two-year deal for 120. Two for 120. That's $60 million a year. So, you know, I get it. We set the foundation for them to get all this
Starting point is 00:09:49 bread. It is what it is. We think about it. Be like, Mama, why you didn't have me later on? You know what I'm saying? I tell my mama that all the time. But it's good for it, man. But I'm just saying, I see dudes making $18, $19 million and only average six points or four points a game,
Starting point is 00:10:05 and they ain't never made an All-League, an All-Star, or nothing. You know what I'm saying? But we in that era. We in that era. But go and do something
Starting point is 00:10:15 when you get in the game. Show me that you can play. You know what I'm saying? Don't just get this money, man. Just show me you can play. Give me something that you can show me you can play. You know what I'm saying? Don't just be like, oh, I'll make this money and it's good. Show me me you can play give me something that you that need showing me you can play you know what i'm saying don't just be like oh i make this money and it's good show me that you can play
Starting point is 00:10:29 the boston celtics go up 3-1 with a 107 98 victory over the orlando magic jason tatum was sensational 37 points 14 rebounds three assists three steals jalen brown chipped in with 21 points 14 rebounds, 3 assists, 3 steals. Jalen Brown chipped in with 21 points, 11 rebounds. Derek White had 18 and 7. Christoph Brzingas had 19 points, 5 rebounds. Played really well. Ben Carroll had 31. Franz Wagner had 24. Corey Joseph had 12.
Starting point is 00:11:04 But it wasn't nearly enough. It was too much JT. It was too much JB. And like you said, the others, when you get a Przingis, give me a 19. When you get a Derek White, give me a 18. Your big guns go off, and then you get your role players doing exactly
Starting point is 00:11:19 what they're supposed to do. It makes it very, very difficult for you to beat this team, and JT had it going tonight. Perfect from the free throw line. JB was 9 of 10 from the free throw line. Now, Tatum wasn't the most efficient. He's only 10 of 25.
Starting point is 00:11:34 Yeah. But he was putting pressure on them by getting to the free throw line. They were 30 of 32 from the free throw line. Orlando was 14 of 20. Ocho. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:11:43 You watched the Celtics and the only game they lost, I think, is the game that JT didn't play. He hurt his wrist, I think, at the first game. He didn't play and he didn't play. But if you look at them now, they seem to have it rolling. You think
Starting point is 00:12:00 the Celtics can come out of the East? I mean, obviously, you know, they can. I mean, the Celtics are one of the fortunate teams outside of the Cavs. Are they going to come out of the East? I mean, obviously, you know, they can. I mean, the Celtics are one of the fortunate teams outside of the Cavs. Aren't they going to come out of the East? They're absolutely coming out of the East. And I said if it wasn't them, it was going to be my heat. But we know how that went. But the bench, we already know what they could do.
Starting point is 00:12:19 We already know a white Tatum and Porzingis. It's the bench, the contribution that they're getting from the bench that's helping them also along the way. So, I mean, it's almost unfair in a sense because I see not only them coming out to the East, I see them winning again. Because of the depth, because of what they have, and it's almost unfair to a sense, which is why yesterday we had Antoine on the show. We talk about they have new ownership in Boston. But why would you want to break up something like that? And, you know, you're going to win consistently year in and year out.
Starting point is 00:12:53 Because I still want to make it. Yeah, I want to win championships and make money. I mean, think about it. You got two guys that's making $300 million. You got another two guys that make over $100 million. And you got another guy that's making $40 million. That's a lot of money, Ocho, even for a championship. Ocho, that's almost a billion dollars.
Starting point is 00:13:11 So, what you're doing is, Ocho, that team, Boston, is very, very talented. And for me, and all of them, and White, and Ian, they didn't even have a holiday. They didn't have a holiday.
Starting point is 00:13:25 So they're very talented. Even they got the kid off the bench coming Peyton, who was pretty good. Peyton Pritchard, nice. They're very, very talented. You know what I'm saying? So if they can stay together and that's what you want, that's what we talked about. You have to have the
Starting point is 00:13:41 role players that can do it, and then you need to. With Brown and Taylor, if do it. And then you're playing two. Right. With Brown and Taylor. If they play well and then you get some support, it's going to be good. I think Cleveland can match them. I really do. I think Cleveland can match them. They went through two with each other. And if Cleveland plays the way they're supposed to play,
Starting point is 00:14:02 and they get it from Mobley and all them guys. And then Garland. Garland and Mitchell. And everybody, Mitchell going to be him. If they play and match them, they got enough talent to match with them. You know what I'm saying? Mm-hmm. But then when you come, even if they make it out of the East,
Starting point is 00:14:22 this year is not going to be easy. You're not playing Dallas. You're playing a full, strong team from the West. Like an OKC. Even a Clipper team will match up with them really well. You know what I'm saying? You got teams that can match up with them as talent-wise. What to give them something.
Starting point is 00:14:41 Dallas didn't have nothing for them last year. No, no. Dallas just surprisingly got into that because of what? Everybody them something. Dallas didn't have nothing for them last year. No, no. Dallas just surprised they got into that because of what? Everybody got hurt. You know what I'm saying? In the West. And all the top teams got hurt.
Starting point is 00:14:54 Even Denver will match up with them very well. You know, with Joker and all of them. So it'll be a good, it'll be a better challenge this year. But I think Boston and Cleveland is going to make it hard. Nobody else can compete with them in the East. It's going to be Boston or Cleveland. And then in the West, it's wide open.
Starting point is 00:15:17 Whoever playing well in the West is going to win. You know what I'm saying? It's a lot of good teams in the West Coast that's really, really good. You know what I'm saying it's a lot of good teams in the west coast that's really really good you know what I'm saying so it'll be interesting but I wouldn't break up my Boston team I guarantee that I don't care I'll run it out
Starting point is 00:15:34 I'll be like um Bill Russell and all I'm a witch I don't care man I don't give a shit. I'm going to put a billion and a half up. You know what I'm saying?
Starting point is 00:15:50 Let me just wait. Hey, hey, hey, but back then, that owner was paying Bill Russell to buy this pocket. He just spent six billion. You know, what's his name? What was his coach? A red armband. A red ar the coach? A red armband. A red armband.
Starting point is 00:16:06 Red armband was doing his thing, man. He was running everything. He didn't care about none of that. And they was playing for pennies. They was only playing for like 15,000, 15,000. You know what I'm saying? So you had that, and they was winning championships. So you got to stay that way and stay on course.
Starting point is 00:16:25 And then, both of you just got stay that way and stay on course. You know what I'm saying? And then, Pofi just got sold for $6.2 billion. Exactly. So I ain't tried to buy, I ain't spend $6 billion and then he put,
Starting point is 00:16:35 got another billion down there in contract. Yeah, you got a billion. $6 billion. So that owner coming up in there with a $7 billion debt already.
Starting point is 00:16:44 Get off his stand. So they got money. You know what I'm saying? So they're going to keep it apart, man. I think they're not going to break that up because they got to get through especially if they went two and one. They ain't breaking that up. They're just going to add pieces and get better. With
Starting point is 00:16:59 37 points in this game, Jason Tatum ties Charles Barkley and Tim Duncan with 11 career, 35 point playoff games. John Moran says he had, he had thunder figured out and Memphis would have tied the series. If he didn't get hurt. You remember two couple of years ago,
Starting point is 00:17:21 he said he was fine in the West. They haven't won another, they haven't won a series since years ago, he said he was fine in the West. They haven't won a series since he said that. Now, do I believe they would have won that game? That he got hurt? They were up 27 playing well? I believe
Starting point is 00:17:35 they'd win that game. But I don't believe they'd win a series. They're not going to win a series against that talented OKC team. I don't care. That team was too talented. They got, and we look at it, you guys. They got 10, 11 guys that's talented. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:17:54 Talented. Come off there and get it. You know what I'm saying? And Memphis don't have that type of team. No. They don't have that type of team. I get it. Morant, before he did all the things that he did
Starting point is 00:18:06 and got in trouble, was probably the best basketball player in the NBA. And he said this. But they got to get somebody that's going to help them more than Jackson and Bang. You know what I'm saying? To compete with these dudes in the West. I get it.
Starting point is 00:18:22 I like Morant's mentality. You shouldn't say that. You shouldn't say, if I'm on the floor, I get it. I like Morant's mentality. You shouldn't say that. You shouldn't say, if I'm on the floor, I'm a weak. But, they wasn't equal
Starting point is 00:18:32 to this OKC team. They didn't lose no games for nothing. You know what I'm saying? They didn't lose no games. But you got to understand, Morant played to it. You feel what I'm saying?
Starting point is 00:18:44 So, I don't believe in that i i just think they weren't as talented as okc they wasn't no not at all i mean listen like and i'm listening uh and ngp i'm just trying to throw little nuggets out there you know y'all really not listening to me i'm not saying i'm not woesh i'm not shams but what i told y'all early in the show when it does happen i just want y'all to be like you know what ocho well you was right you was right yeah you're coming to miami and y'all is coming to miami too i'm telling you i sat down and i talked with these folk you know they confided me when it
Starting point is 00:19:22 comes to situations like this even though i I didn't play, you know, at an NBA level, but they understand I know the game and I know the players and they know I can take care of people when they come to Miami
Starting point is 00:19:32 and make sure I keep them aligned and focused on what they need to do when they're here. Ted, I'm with you, baby. I'm with you, baby.
Starting point is 00:19:40 Man, if you get them too, I'm a, you know, I'm gonna come to Miami And be with you man And holla at you a lot of times Cause if you get two of them two You're gonna be something else
Starting point is 00:19:53 Yeah I'm telling you I'm telling you you'll see Listen I lied for you before I lied to you man Jalen Green Jalen Green spoke about the exchange Between him and Draymond at the end of the game when Draymond told Jalen Green, go paint your nails. Jalen said, just talking. He can't really do much anything else.
Starting point is 00:20:12 So talking is his only way. Hey, GPD, y'all, hey. Because now, I mean, now they throw a tick on you. You guys used to be at each other's face, spit blood everywhere. Now you say one thing, you look at the guy for a tick. This is weak basketball,

Starting point is 00:23:45 podcast where I sit down with the boldest innovators shaping what's next. In this episode, I'm joined by Anjali Sood, CEO of Tubi, for a conversation that's anything but ordinary. 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,
Starting point is 00:24:20 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. And hear how leaders like Anjali are carving out space and shaking things up a bit in the most crowded of markets. Listen to Good Company on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. In the fall of 1986, Ronald Reagan found himself at the center of a massive scandal that looked like it might bring down his presidency. Did you make a mistake in sending arms to Tehran, sir? No. It became known as the Iran-Contra affair. And I'm not taking any more questions in just a second.
Starting point is 00:25:11 I'm going to ask... I'm Leon Nafok, co-creator of Slow Burn.

The prank, the culprit behind the prank called to Shadur Sander has been revealed as Jack Obrick, son of Falcons D.C. First, the Falcons put out a statement this morning saying, earlier in the week, Jack Ulbrich,
Starting point is 00:27:26 the 21-year-old son of defensive coordinator Jeff Ulbrich, unintentionally came across the draft contact phone number for Shador Sanders off an output iPad while visiting his parents' home and wrote the number down and later conducted a prank
Starting point is 00:27:41 call. Jeff Ulbrich was unaware of the data exposure and any facet of the prank and was made aware of the above only after the fact. Atlanta Falcons do not condone this behavior and send our sincere apologies to Shadur Sanders and his family, who we've been in contact with to apologize to, as well as facilitate an apology directly
Starting point is 00:28:02 from Jack to the Sanders family. We have also been in contact with the NFL and will continue to cooperate fully with any inquiries we may receive from the NFL League office. We are thoroughly reviewing all protocols and updating if necessary to help prevent an incident like this from happening again. Falcons. Falcons. Jack posted an apology.
Starting point is 00:28:24 On Friday night, I made a tremendous mistake. Shador, what I did was completely inexcusable, embarrassing, and shameful. I'm so sorry. I took away from your moment. It was selfish and childish. I could never imagine getting ready to celebrate one of the greatest moments of your life, and I made a terrible mistake, and I messed
Starting point is 00:28:40 with that moment. Thank you for accepting my call earlier today. I hope you can find it in your heart. So forgive me. At Shador Sanders. Ocho, is this apology enough or should the Falcons punish,
Starting point is 00:28:54 well, I don't know who, I don't know how they can punish the Sun. They might punish the Dead. Yeah. You didn't get Dr. Drapik. So if you were to punish the Falcons,
Starting point is 00:29:02 how do you punish them? And should, should they be punished first? And if you are going to punish the Falcons, how do you punish them? And should they be punished first? And if you are going to punish them, what should the punishment be? I mean, listen, I say if you're going to punish them to some extent, I would say it would have to come from the dad. Obviously, it was the son. It was the son that made the call.
Starting point is 00:29:19 Obviously, dad, I'm not sure how the son got the number. Who knows? But the punishment should come with the dad. Maybe a fine of some sort. I think draft picks would be a little bit too much because the team itself as a whole shouldn't have to suffer for what the son decided to do. Outside of that, the apology, I mean, at that moment, at that point. Seems sincere. It seems sincere, especially being that it was written from someone else, and it's
Starting point is 00:29:46 no. It's just a bunch of you-know-what. Did he really mean it? No. The fact that he got caught is the only reason he's apologizing. Bro, how do you, Ojo, you came, and you let him record you. Oh. They're not sorry. They know what they
Starting point is 00:30:02 were doing. They're young. It was a prank. We're in the era of pranks, and like you say, everybody, everybody don't play the same. They're playing too much, Ojo. They play not sorry. They know what they were doing. They're young. It was a prank. We're in the era of pranks. And like you say, everybody don't play the same. They're playing too much, Ocho. They play too much. Listen, they thought it was a funny moment. They thought it was a funny moment when it really wasn't. It really wasn't.
Starting point is 00:30:14 Before you go, JP, other players also reportedly had prank calls. Tyler Warren had a prank call. There were several other players. And you see that, like you said, Ocho, we're in that era. Everything is about a prank. Everybody want to do a pull or something. A viral moment. Want to touch somebody, want to do something,
Starting point is 00:30:31 dump something on their head. Everybody, like GP, like you've been saying the whole night, everybody don't play how you play. Yeah. Now, when somebody fire you up, then, well, he didn't have to do that. Well, you didn't have to do that. Leave people alone. Especially people
Starting point is 00:30:47 you don't have a relationship with. You going out there in some mall or you walking down the street, you don't know that person from a hill of beans. And that's why this social media has messed us up. About life and everything
Starting point is 00:31:04 about this crazy stuff. That little kid knew what he was doing because he went in his daddy's phone and got that phone number. He did that on purpose. So, I hate saying punish your dad because your dad
Starting point is 00:31:20 is trusting in you as my son and I'm trusting you that you won't go do stuff that's just like almost stealing though y'all that's almost like stealing yeah it's almost like he's stealing from your peoples and your dad has to take the blame for what you have done because i can't punish you because you're not in a atlantic atlanta falcons um organization So I have to punish your daddy because of the situation, because it hurts that person who you did it to. And these young kids today, man,
Starting point is 00:31:54 and I tell you, this generation is different. These kids are different. They think that's funny, and they think that's something to do. And somebody else is expensive expensive they think this is funny and then when you get caught like Chad said and boy ain't sorry cause if he was sorry
Starting point is 00:32:12 he would have said he did it from day one and he would have been like man I did it but he got caught and when he got caught he hadn't said the right thing to make his daddy be okay and look a little bit better. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:32:28 And you look at it. Here's the thing, Ocho. Yeah. Shador Sanders' phone number wasn't the only one in there. But he was the one that was having a precipitous fall. So now, which prank is going to generate the most buzz? Knowing Shador is on eggshells. He's on pins and needles waiting to have an NFL team call him and say,
Starting point is 00:32:48 hey, we're going to select you in the fourth round. We're going to select you in the fifth round. So check this out. He got the number from an iPad that he shouldn't have been using. He waited days because it didn't just happen. And then he made the prank call. He filmed himself while making the prank calls, waited days to make the apology.
Starting point is 00:33:11 He wanted a viral moment. Everything ain't mentioned. Like you said, in this day and age, Ocho, everything is about clicks, like, mentioned. And a viral moment. That's what it's all about, man.
Starting point is 00:33:23 That's why I like my era. We didn't have all that crap. No, man, it ain't like that. We didn't get out of that. Nah. See, I tell you all the time. I say, I came up, I don't remember me playing no practical jokes on nobody.
Starting point is 00:33:39 Boy, you better scrap it up. You can't do that because next time we see you, we're going to knock you out. You feel what I'm saying? It ain't going to be about, man, okay, man, I'm going to take this court date, man. No, man, I'm going to knock you smooth out. Because we ain't talking about all that because you messing with my livelihood. About all this social media, all that crap, man.
Starting point is 00:34:01 We ain't doing that. You know what I'm saying? Yeah. I'm glad I didn't come up in that area. I'm glad. Now, look, I would have loved to made the money
Starting point is 00:34:09 that these cats make. Yeah. But, GP, I wouldn't want to be in this era. It's too much. I wouldn't want to be in the social media era. I wouldn't.
Starting point is 00:34:17 I'm going to tell y'all, I don't want to be in the social media era because I would have been divorced way earlier than what I did and all that stuff. I would have been all bad, man. You're stupid. I would have been divorced way earlier than what I did. And all that stuff. I would have been all bad, man. You're stupid.
Starting point is 00:34:28 I would have been, man, I would have been viral all the time. You know what I'm saying? You know what I'm saying? But, man, every day you walk out, man, you're going to see, man, there's a camera, man, all, man. And you look at that, man, man, I ain't on that, man. What is a like to me? I don't care about no likes, man. I'm already popular.
Starting point is 00:34:47 You know what I'm saying? I don't care if you give me a million likes. A million people are already looking at me. So what? I don't care about all that, man. You messing up my life, man. And I'm not dealing with that, though. It's crazy to me that you can sit on the phone
Starting point is 00:35:04 and watch people do what they do, and they're silly. You just told me, and I ain't surprised, that boy got in that eye bag and then filmed himself doing it. How stupid is that?
Starting point is 00:35:19 How you think that we ain't gonna figure that out? Yeah. How you think we ain't gonna get that? That's how dudes get caught killing people, murdering people, whatever they're doing. Man, they go back to y'all phone. Doing foolishness. Go back to your phone and
Starting point is 00:35:35 you got the pistol showing it and doing this and that and that. That's how they catch you. You're silly. So that's why I tell a lot of kids that I talk to now, that social media killing y'all, man. It's hurting y'all.
Starting point is 00:35:50 It's hurting y'all life, man. Because all y'all think about is likes. And who gonna like you on there? That's how people get robbed and do stuff. You feel the thing? Talk about I'm here, I'm there. And then all of a sudden they look in the back, oh man, he got Centennial Park.
Starting point is 00:36:07 Let me ride up on him right now. Let me ride up on that. That's crazy to me, man, that you do that. That's just silly. That's just silly stuff to me. Dang. Should do her. Penn is first, both on NFL X and IG accounts.
Starting point is 00:36:25 If you go to both NFL and Brown's official websites, click shop. Who's the first Cleveland Brown jersey you can preorder? Shador's. Many NFL fans on TikTok have pledged to purchase Shador's jersey and merchandise exclusively from his official website rather than from the NFL shop to support him after being drafted in the fifth round. They believe the league blackballed Shador.
Starting point is 00:36:50 Shador could potentially make millions of dollars from this trend. And you'll probably see other players you know, Ocho, you got it. I'm proud of you doing what you know, Ocho. You'd have had your little cap. You'd have had the Ocho gear going. And that's good.
Starting point is 00:37:05 Look, both of y'all. And look at you guys. Look, look, both of y'all. Y'all know it's daddy. Daddy going to make that up. You know what I'm saying? Deion did that, man. And that's what they're going to do. They're going to just show up, everybody, what they did to him.
Starting point is 00:37:19 Y'all know that boy shouldn't have got drafted in no fifth round. He shouldn't have been 144K. No, I didn't. I didn't. I didn't. I didn't. You go from projected to be number nine, 144. That's crazy.
Starting point is 00:37:31 Yeah. And then the teams that were supposed to draft you, pass you. And then the team who drafted, he had it at the 33rd pick in the second round. And they didn't pick it. You see? It's got to be a black ball thing. We ain't going to never know why, what happened, or why it happened, but it
Starting point is 00:37:53 happened. But to me, I just tell my little young nephew, man, go out there and kill them. And win the job. Get out with them, man. Be one of them special ones like Marino, like Brent Favre out with them, man. Be one of them special ones like Marino, like Brett Favre, man. Do that, man.
Starting point is 00:38:09 They got drafted like that and then become a Hall of Famer and become one of them dudes. That's all you got to do, man. Forget it. And then make your bread, man, the way you is because he popular, man.
Starting point is 00:38:20 This social media got him popular. He going to be popular no matter what. He going to be popular no matter what. He's going to be popular. So just do it. I think it's a blessing in disguise. Obviously, going into the fifth round and the pick he went is not the blessing I'm talking about. I'm just saying the situation he's going to, Flacco, is just there on the one-year deal.
Starting point is 00:38:40 Deshaun Watson's not going to be able to play this year. So I'm assuming the way I'm thinking and thinking it's going to play out, I think he will be able to beat out Kenny Pickett and Dylan Gabriel. And I think he's going to get his shot. He's going to get his shot to play. I'm not sure if it's this year. Maybe it's next year. But that's something he's going to get his shot. And I think it's going to be magical for him.
Starting point is 00:38:58 And seeing it as a blessing in disguise and finally being... It's not, Ocho. You know why? Because look how much pressure they put on Bronny James.ames bradley bradley james you thought bradley james was the first pick in the draft right the way they talk about him until my oh he did he was the he was the 55th pick they got with five picks left gp yeah make it seem like they took the man but because of that last name you gotta understand if his name was shidur jones maybe you're right. Right. But we know who his dad is. Right.
Starting point is 00:39:26 And we know what that dad, that aura around his dad. I can't agree with you. I got to agree with Chad on this one. Because that's a little bit of different talent. My little nephew, Ronnie, wasn't really, really ready
Starting point is 00:39:39 for that situation, for that athletic ability, right? He had to grow into that. He forgot. He missed the whole college thing. Oh, yeah, yeah. With the heart thing, you know, what happened or whatever. But Shakur is ready.
Starting point is 00:39:56 He got the talent to do that right now. And if you think of Roddy right now, Roddy killing the G League. He had to get himself into that situation to do it. Roddy going to be good in two, three years. I think Shador is going to be ready now. I was saying because of the names. What I was just saying because of the names and the expectations. Even though he's a fifth-round pick.
Starting point is 00:40:24 And, Ojo, you know we don't have no expectations for no fifth round pick yeah right but you do because your last name just like we got expectations now for the 55th pick it's just like yokich when yokich got drafted ain't no if they're lying if they told they well i knew yoki was gonna be this if you knew he was gonna be this you took it with the number one overall pick. Right. So you a D-line saying you knew Nikola Yoki was going to turn out to be what he was going to be. Because he was a second round pick.
Starting point is 00:40:52 I think he was like 40 something. It's the same thing. So you put pressure. You say it should do it, should do it, should do it. Here's a fifth round pick. You're going to bypass that and say, well, look at his last name. I thought y'all said he was all this. Brian is going to be the fifth.
Starting point is 00:41:07 If he all that, he should be able to do like his dad. We don't have all those picks. Now, we went back to our fourth round, five round two, like the NFL. Then he got picked like that. Then it's a little different. He only got six picks. So he can pick because the simple
Starting point is 00:41:23 fact is, is the lakers had that pick and it wasn't for lebron being on the lakers and they making that pick he probably wouldn't got drafted which would have been no problem you know what i'm saying but we only got two rounds you know what i'm saying they got it happened to have to figure out gp don't even make it so it's a little different of what we're saying it see what I'm saying so it's a little different of what we're saying you know what I'm saying
Starting point is 00:41:48 we don't know if he would've got drafted if the Lakers didn't have that 52th pick you feel what I'm saying right but
Starting point is 00:41:54 they did pick him which was a blessing because he is talented right he is very very talented and he's gotta give him a chance
Starting point is 00:42:03 football players got seven rounds they gotta they gonna do that He is very, very talented. And he's got to give him a chance. Football players got seven rounds. They got to, they're going to do that. They're going to do that. So we happy that they do got these type of rounds. But if basketball would have had five or six, seven rounds, and he got drafted in the fifth or sixth round, we wouldn't be expecting to be nothing.
Starting point is 00:42:25 What you said, he might not even make the team. But here's the thing, GP. Once you start getting Ocho, you don't know anything about this because you're a second-rounder. You start getting fifth, sixth, fifth and sixth, seventh round, you can't buy it. Hey, Ocho, we just need enough
Starting point is 00:42:42 to fill the roster. It ain't no guarantee when you start getting them later on. In the NFL, y'all know y'all first three rounds is almost like first round picks with us. Yeah, basically, yeah. You want it in the NFL, the first three rounds, you start. You start in the NFL. You feel what I'm saying? You basically going to start in the NFL if you get picked in the first three rounds.
Starting point is 00:43:02 You know what I'm saying? In basketball, if you pick 50-60, you're in a G League, 10-day contract or whatever, you're going to G League, 2-way. We're going to give you a deal and you got to look at Bronny. He got a heck of a deal.
Starting point is 00:43:21 Oh, he got a money guarantee. But he's not the first second rounder To get money guaranteed, though, GP No, no, no, no, no They're right Because people believe In other things But then you think about it
Starting point is 00:43:31 Like this, Shannon What if I don't pick you And then pick you up in the 3-8 And then still give you Some guaranteed money That's all No, I want the guaranteed money Right here
Starting point is 00:43:39 You weren't going to pick me up And give me that kind of guaranteed money So I go ahead and take this right here Hey, hey, hey Hey, hey, hey. You heard me? Yeah, what you saying with Joe? I don't think you're seeing it from the same lens I'm seeing it at.
Starting point is 00:43:55 I'm looking at the situation in its totality, right? Okay. Okay, you went fifth round. Now, I look at it. I look at the landscape of what they got. They got Flacco. Flacco's not going to be that long. Deshaun, Deshaun is hurt.
Starting point is 00:44:05 He's coming off of an Achilles injury. I see, I think, no disrespect to Kenny Pickett, no disrespect to Dylan Gabriel. I see him beating them out. So I see Shador as the number two quarterback with Flacco playing. Now, depending on how Flacco plays
Starting point is 00:44:15 throughout the entirety of the season, there's a chance that Shador, he goes to the helm. I say it's a blessing in disguise. So what happens? We look at the quarterback, the quarterback carousel, the quarterbacks that the Browns have had
Starting point is 00:44:27 throughout the entirety of their franchise. The last decent quarterback there, a lot of them. The last good one that was consistent was Bernie Kosar. Yes. So I'm looking long term. And before that, it was Otto Graham.
Starting point is 00:44:42 Yeah. Hey, I'm looking long term. This might be a blessing in disguise yeah for sure despite so i'm just looking at it like that and knowing him and knowing the competitor that shidur is understanding the background and where he's come from he's able to deal with this adversity and again hurdle this option as well. And this situation, this situation for him, a GP, delayed, not denied. Chad, I'm on your side.
Starting point is 00:45:09 I think Shador is going to be their quarterback for the next six, seven years. And he's going to be good. Yeah. I'm going to say decade, decade.
Starting point is 00:45:19 I can say 10 too. Because I think he's going to go in there and show up. He's going to go in there and show up. He's going to go in there and show up. And I think he's got a chip on his shoulder now
Starting point is 00:45:29 that him and his daddy done talked about it. Go in there and get out with what you're going to get out with. And I'm guaranteed he's going to go in there. And I don't even care
Starting point is 00:45:39 about Flacco. Flacco, oh. Man, if you fool around and be moving and doing what you do, man, and pass that thing, get first down or whatever, them Cleveland Browns ain't been nothing in a long time anyway. If you can get some people in them stands and getting people high,
Starting point is 00:45:56 Chatter, you just said it. His jersey is the number one in Cleveland right now, man. What y'all think? Yeah. What y'all think, what y'all think man that that's gonna happen i think he gonna show up and that's what he should do he should go in there and show up show up yep yeah and it's oh joe yeah abdul carter responded to us on twitter this afternoon i wore number 11 i have shoes. I've filled big shoes before.
Starting point is 00:46:26 If you know football, you know who also wore the stick, which means 11. It's not about the number. It's about the player. The number, just a legacy. It's iconic, something cool. Look at the legacy of the stick. I came to Penn State and not only lived up to that number, but I made it even more legendary.
Starting point is 00:46:43 That's how I see it. I shot. If he says no, cool. You miss 100% of the shots you don't take. Yes, sir. But I spoke to LT on the phone yesterday. She'll do. Don't speak it with the goat.
Starting point is 00:46:56 And no for certain, 56 or not, I'll build my own legacy. I don't, Allah, I think he said, I think he said praise to God or something like that right Abdul we said that I mean
Starting point is 00:47:08 when we had you on the couch we appreciate it again I don't think Ocho and I and Nightcap the family thank you enough for coming by yes sir
Starting point is 00:47:15 I appreciate hey Bailey thank you Drew we appreciate that because I Bailey I played with Bailey
Starting point is 00:47:20 yeah for two years at B-Board and Drew Rosenhaus probably probably his first start, he was down at the East Blue-Grey game in Montgomery, Alabama, Ocho, in 1989. So it goes back. So, Abdul, I want to thank you for coming on. Ocho, I want to thank you.
Starting point is 00:47:37 Thank you, Drew Rosenhaus and Bailey, Robert Bailey, for making that happen. Yes, we highlighted. That number was made famous by LeVar Arrington. That number was then followed by Michael Parsons, and then you took it. As great as those players were, wearing that number 11 at Penn State. Yes, sir. You can't even fathom. Because let me tell you what happened.
Starting point is 00:48:02 Every outside linebacker you see is because of LT. The Von Millers, the TJ Watts, the Derek Thomases, the Cornelius Bennets, all these, the Leonard Flores, you name an outside edge rusher. He's the only player in NFL history to make two positions famous. He made the left tackle famous. He made the outside linebacker famous. Two. When we talk about who's
Starting point is 00:48:26 the greatest quarterback you get some debate some people say payton some people say montana some people say brady yeah i'm gonna fight you that's not what we're here to do today if we say who's the greatest wide receiver you get some people say jerry some people say randy moss some people say teo if we say who's the best running back? Some people say Jim Brown. Some people say Walter Payton. Barry Sanders. When you say, who is the greatest defensive NFL player ever? There's one name that comes out of
Starting point is 00:48:54 everybody's mouth first. LT. And he goes by initials. They don't call him Lawrence. They call him LT. That's all we're saying. So I get the sticks. But 5'6"? In New York?
Starting point is 00:49:11 It was Kyle. And that's my OG. That's my OG. Every time I see him, I'm with him. I just saw him a couple of weeks ago. He had the autograph sign. I've been seeing him all the time. That's my dude, man. I just saw him a couple of weeks ago and had the autograph sign. I'll be seeing him on the top now.
Starting point is 00:49:27 That's my dude, man. That was the greatest defensive player ever in the NFL. And there's been some great ones. And I'm fortunate enough to play in the era. I played in the era with Reggie at his prime. Bruce Smith at his prime. Ray Lewis at his prime. Deion, Coach Prime at his prime.
Starting point is 00:49:44 I'm talking about guys that won defensive player of the year multiples. He's it. He made two positions famous. Yeah. I think it's different. I think it's different, but this is what I do like about Abdul.
Starting point is 00:49:59 The confidence. I feel. The belief. I feel I can wear that 56 and do it justice, despite LT being the greatest defensive player of all time. That's what makes Abdul who he is right now. That's why he was drafted where he was drafted, when he wore the sticks, when he was at Penn State.
Starting point is 00:50:17 The belief, the confidence on not only that, in between them lines, the skill set to be able to pull it off. So the mere fact that he's coming in with that kind of cash-in attitude, I feel like I could wear that 56 in New York and do right by it. That's how I feel about myself and my skill set.
Starting point is 00:50:37 I don't even want it. As a matter of fact, I ain't even going to get a 50 number. Because they might say I'm close to 56. I might be close to it. I don't want it. I'm going to get me a I'm going to go back and get that number. I go back and get a single digit number zero. This is what Shannon say, man. Look at it, man. I don't even want that number, man.
Starting point is 00:50:53 I don't even want to live up to none of that, man. Let me go on number, man. Get out. He's legendary. You can't do it on a legendary number, man. Don't even mess with that. Don't even be talking about all that, man. Put yourself in that situation, man. Just go even mess with that. Don't even be talking about all that, man, to put yourself in that situation, man. Just go on the world level, do what you did, and get out.
Starting point is 00:51:10 You feel what I'm saying? And get out. You know what I'm saying? If you hear the story about LT, LT late for the plane. LT gets out the car, throws his keys to the valet, says, I'll be back here Sunday. Pick me up. And the guy picks him up on Sunday.

Starting point is 00:52:00 and step boldly into the best version of yourself to awaken the unstoppable strength that's inside of us all. So tune into the podcast, focus on your emotional well-being, and climb your personal mountain. Because it's impossible for you to be the most authentic you.

Listen to Made for This Mountain on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. I'm Michael Kassin, founder and CEO of 3C Ventures and your guide on Good Company, the podcast where I sit down with the boldest innovators shaping what's next. In this episode, I'm joined by Anjali Sood, CEO of Tubi, for a conversation that's
Starting point is 00:52:41 anything but ordinary. 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's so many stories out there, and if you can find a way to curate and help the right person discover the right content,
Starting point is 00:53:07 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. And hear how leaders like Anjali are carving out space and shaking things up a bit in the most crowded of markets. Listen to Good Company on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. In the fall of 1986, Ronald Reagan found himself at the center of a massive scandal that looked like it might bring down his presidency. Did you make a mistake in sending arms to Tehran, sir?
Starting point is 00:53:50 No. 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, but which few of us still remember today. The things that happened were so bizarre and insane, I can't begin to tell you. Please do.
Starting point is 00:54:31 To hear the whole story, listen to Fiasco, Iran Contra on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. 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
Starting point is 00:54:57 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
Starting point is 00:55:23 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 our lifetime. Listen to Ali and Me, now on Audible.
Starting point is 00:56:00 NLT, he's driving a New York Ocho. He's driving. He's like, damn, they got the last on the Giants. Damn, he driving a New York Ocho. He driving. He like, damn. They got the last one in John's stadium. He's supposed to be playing. Hey, on NFL film, man, Bill Belichick told a story one day about starting a meeting. Starting a meeting. And the head, I don't remember who the head coach was at the time.
Starting point is 00:56:20 Parcells was the head coach. Okay, Parcells was the head coach. So, Bill Belichick, I think Bill must have went to Parcells and said something about, you know what, well, LT, you know, he showed up late to a meeting and he wasn't there. And so Parcells asked him, well, did you start the meeting on time or did you wait for him to get there? He said, no, I just waited for him to get there.
Starting point is 00:56:38 Well, that's a good thing. Because the meeting don't start until LT get there. I mean, what are we talking about here? Like, what? It's like now, Ocho, guys, you got an opportunity to see Tom Brady. If you're old enough, you get an opportunity to see Tom Brady. If you weren't old enough, you didn't see Joe and those come-from-behind victories, and you didn't see Elway and Marino and Blake.
Starting point is 00:57:00 So I don't think people realize because they see TJY and they see Aaron. Think about it. This man won the MVP of the league as a defensive player. Of the league. Different, man. He was LT. What was LT? Like a 10-time All-Pro.
Starting point is 00:57:25 Like eight or nine first team. Jesus. Do you know how hard it is to beat that? A first team. I think Brady has three first-team All-Pros over the season that he won the MVP. Let that sink in for a second. Aaron Donald was, I think,
Starting point is 00:57:45 an eight-time first-team All-Pro in 10 seasons. I think LT had that many, but LT had like, I think he went like six or seven in a row. Carl Banks, somebody beat him out, and then he went to another two or three. How many first-team All-Pros did LT have? Eight first-team?
Starting point is 00:58:01 How many consecutive? Seven? He was eight first team. And how many second team? One or two. But look, Abdul, I think you're going to be a phenomenal player. Go strike, y'all. Go get y'all.
Starting point is 00:58:17 Go build your own legacy. Because you're there. I mean, think about it. I don't care what corner. You think Joe Brown going to go to New England and say, hey, let me get that 12. But, Shannon,
Starting point is 00:58:30 we shouldn't even be talking about this and the Giants would be like, man, you can't have that number. Hey, listen. Hey, GP. You can't even have that number. GP, in that media market, you know how New York media is is you know they don't play
Starting point is 00:58:47 you don't play you you yeah listen you don that 56 and understand what comes behind that or even having it on your having it on i don't want that i don't listen i listen i'm and you know how i am gp um you know how i am i don't care what nobody say, especially the media, because I'm an actor fool. But I wouldn't even, I'm just saying, if, hypothetically speaking, I don't want what comes behind that 56 when it every Sunday at one o'clock.
Starting point is 00:59:14 Uh-uh. No, sir. No, sir. Like I said, they shouldn't even think about giving it to me. This man going here, man. This is your jersey, man. This is your locker.
Starting point is 00:59:22 You wear those and mix it up. They already got it hanging up, GP. This man gets a jersey up in This is in your locker. You wear it. I'm going to shut up. They already got a hand up, GP. This man gets a jersey up in his locker room and say, you got a level. Here's what it is, man. Don't even come to my office. I'll talk about 56. And then I send LT and bring him to the thing and say, boy,
Starting point is 00:59:38 you know better than that. I don't do more. You know what I'm saying? Let's talk. LT good. LT like, yeah, I appreciate it, but I mean, like, you've been around LT. I've been around LT. I don't know how much you've been around LT, Ocho.
Starting point is 00:59:53 Hey, hold on. Hey, that's a good one. Me and LT, we be at Twin Peaks. I'm saying you can see the pictures. I see him all the time. He coming off the golf course. Coming there, smoking a cigar with his buddies. Okay. Yeah.

Starting point is 01:00:18 With signings and everything. That's my guy. So, you know what I'm saying, man? LT ain't worried about that. LT, we're was gonna tell that boy You ain't gonna never Compare to me Everybody gotta understand

Starting point is 01:00:57 back in the day. GP, you talked about it earlier, you know, as far as supporting cash, you know,
Starting point is 01:01:01 role players and all that young bull got confidence for the mere fact he even had a goal in the ball to say, I don't want to even wear that 56.
Starting point is 01:01:09 Think about this, Ocho. What did that tell you? What did that tell you about him? Aaron Donald won three defensive players a year. So did J.J. Watt. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:01:18 And ain't nobody said they're better than LT. And we watching them in this era. Yeah. So now remember now, when LT played, they didn't throw the football like they in this era. Yeah. So now remember now when LT played, they didn't throw the football like they throw it now. Right.
Starting point is 01:01:29 He didn't have the chances to go to hunt the quarterback like they do now. Mm-hmm. They put a special, Joe Gibbs put a special office in just to deal with LT. He put the H back in. He said, I want to put somebody over here with the left tackle so they can help on LT.
Starting point is 01:01:49 That's when you know, when they design a special offense to deal with you, if you couldn't block him, you couldn't beat the Giants. Go back and look at the 80s and look at the left tackles that got drafted in the first round.
Starting point is 01:02:05 Right. Jim Lachey, and they go get Herb Eatman, they go get Gary Zimmerman, they get Steve Wallace. Go back and look and see what they did just to deal with this man. An 82-year-old man runs a 16.0200 meters. Let's check out the video, Ojo. Let's go, boy. Let's go. He's rolling. Hey, do me a favor now. Do me a favor.
