SPEAKER_00 0:31

Yeah, it took us 30 minutes to figure out something we do every week in two years.

SPEAKER_01 0:37

Welcome to Know Your Limits Podcast, the only podcast where you're insured to have a good time. I'm Andrew.

SPEAKER_00 0:43

I'm Zach.

SPEAKER_01 0:44

Just a couple of bozos trying to figure out what to do and how to do it. We are here to break down. Yeah, you know, we're here to break down what's coming up. Um Zach, what what are we talking about today?

SPEAKER_00 0:56

Uh we got a lot on the slate, it looks like we do. Um we have a little chat GPT breakdown, which looks fantastic.

SPEAKER_01 1:04

Yes, yeah.

SPEAKER_00 1:06

Look at this sheet.

SPEAKER_01 1:08

Yep. I mean similar to every uh every other uh restaurant PDF that you're seeing online right now.

SPEAKER_00 1:16

It is uh, yes.

SPEAKER_01 1:18

They do have it does have a style for sure.

SPEAKER_00 1:21

It looks like a menu. But it's fine. Online menu.

SPEAKER_01 1:23

That's alright with me.

SPEAKER_00 1:24

Yeah, that is alright.

SPEAKER_01 1:25

Yeah.

SPEAKER_00 1:26

Well, it looks like first we're gonna talk about Father's Day. Did you have a good Father's Day?

SPEAKER_01 1:31

I did. I hung out with my dad. How about you?

SPEAKER_00 1:33

I had a great Father's Day. It's the you know, one day a year that um it's centered around me.

SPEAKER_01 1:42

There you go.

SPEAKER_00 1:43

And my dad. Did you do what you wanted to do? Next segment. Yeah, we um you know, we spent some time with family, and that's really what it's all about. But yeah, I had um we didn't do much.

SPEAKER_01 2:01

Um It was a beautiful day. Yeah. Me and my dad just kind of hung out on the back porch.

SPEAKER_00 2:05

Yeah, we were doing some stuff outside and went over to my parents. Brad made meatloaf, which is was amazing. Yeah. Um Does he do the sweet sauce on top? Ketchup.

SPEAKER_01 2:17

Just ketchup.

SPEAKER_00 2:18

Well, I did ask him for a recipe because somebody asked me for the recipe after I sent them a picture of it. And he sent me the recipe.

SPEAKER_01 2:29

Um, I actually have it on here somewhere, but I think my grandma's is just ketchup and brown sugar, I believe.

SPEAKER_00 2:35

Or some kind of combination of Brad's pretty extensive. Um, let's see here. Now, this is a recipe for the sauce or for the meatloaf? Meatloaf and whole. Oh, okay. But there's probably about ten sauces that he uses. And he said if anything's getting low in the fridge, just use the rest of it and add it in. Okay. So there's really no telling. Not knowing. There really is. Um, and yeah, I'll try to find it by the end of this, but uh, so we can give everybody here it is.

SPEAKER_02 3:07

Sweep.

SPEAKER_00 3:09

Alright. You got your ground beef, your one onion, celery in there, two eggs, garlic powder, bread crumbs, salt and pepper, ketchup. Do you know how to say that? Worcestershire sauce sauce, barbecue, steak sauce. I just call it Leon Parents. You gotta get have some hot sauce. Mustard. I think that's a sneaky one.

SPEAKER_01 3:32

So he had all of those sauces available.

SPEAKER_00 3:33

Yeah, and then he said whatever else is nearby. Gotcha.

SPEAKER_01 3:37

Not mixed.

SPEAKER_00 3:39

Well, that's in the mix.

SPEAKER_01 3:41

Oh, gotcha. So all of those sauces go into the mix.

SPEAKER_00 3:44

Yeah, go into when you're mixing up the meat.

SPEAKER_01 3:47

Gotcha. Okay.

SPEAKER_00 3:48

And then you make your loaf and then you bake it. The ketchup, I think, is just on top.

SPEAKER_01 3:52

Gotcha. Yeah, my grandmother's like a specific sauce on top. Yeah. Something like that. Shout out, G Mo. Shout out Braddy Brady.

SPEAKER_00 3:58

It was uh incredible.

SPEAKER_01 4:00

Yeah. Shout out all the biological fathers out there.

SPEAKER_00 4:02

Really? Yeah. Yeah. Happy Father's Day. It was a good day. Yeah. U.S. Open was on. I don't know if you watched that.

SPEAKER_01 4:10

Yeah.

SPEAKER_00 4:10

It's always always on Father's Day.

SPEAKER_01 4:12

I heard it got a little light. People were leaving. Do you did you hear about this at all?

SPEAKER_00 4:16

I don't know. People were saying that, but they didn't have as many people at that tournament because of where it was already. Um Shinecock? It was in Shine. Shinnecock. Oh, gotcha, gotcha. Okay, my bad. Um, that's that's a different place. Okay. Yeah. That's in Miami, not in the Hampshire.

SPEAKER_01 4:37

There we go. Okay.

SPEAKER_00 4:39

So you did watch.

SPEAKER_01 4:42

I did. I did check.

SPEAKER_00 4:43

I did see the highlights, yes. Oh my God. Well, that's good. Um, so Father's Day was good. We all made it through it. Um you know, now we can start thinking about Mother's Day.

SPEAKER_01 4:55

Yeah.

SPEAKER_00 4:56

Which is the day after Father's Day. And every day in between.

SPEAKER_01 4:59

There you go. Yeah, for sure. What is one thing that you realize um now that you are a father that your dad was right about? I mean, I'm sure there's a very long list, but anything that you can pick up on, you know, specifically.

SPEAKER_00 5:14

Um I guess a tip from my dad would probably be if you're thinking about adding one stick of butter or two sticks of butter, add three.

SPEAKER_01 5:26

There you go.

SPEAKER_00 5:28

That's pretty good advice, right?

SPEAKER_01 5:29

That is pretty good advice. It'll taste better.

SPEAKER_00 5:31

Yeah, exactly. Yeah. For sure. But as far about as like being a father, just being present and and all that, and you know, enjoying every day and playing with your kid and really just being around. Yeah. It's awesome.

SPEAKER_01 5:45

That's really what matters. You know, yeah, I don't remember I mean, I remember some specific things about growing up and hanging out with my dad, but really I just remember him being there, and that's really the most important part. Yep, for sure. Cool. Well, I had a fun weekend too. I went down to Annapolis, uh, visited the G Man in his last week before he starts a new job uh new job. Um we hit up uh Grump's Cafe, fantastic uh brunch place.

SPEAKER_00 6:11

Is that your spot?

SPEAKER_01 6:12

It was like I got like uh essentially like the Denny's Grand Slam, and it was like seven bucks. It's fantastic. Indianapolis. Yeah. Nice. Yeah. Then we hit the chop tank uh right on the pier. Um good drinks, good seafood. It was a lot of fun.

SPEAKER_00 6:28

It sounds awesome. I have not been to Annapolis, I don't believe.

SPEAKER_01 6:31

Oh, right. It's really nice. It's that's uh where the Naval Academy is normally. You can pretty much walk through the whole thing, pretty much have the whole thing open uh to the public. I don't know about right now with you know what's going on internationally, but for the most part, normally you can go through and walk through real old city. Um, you know, uh we're talking 800 square feet houses that are going for four and a half million kind of thing. Uh real old, old time city, real cool.

SPEAKER_00 6:58

$7 breakfast though.

SPEAKER_01 7:00

Exactly. Yes.

SPEAKER_00 7:02

Might justify the house purchase.

SPEAKER_01 7:04

That's really you gotta you gotta save somewhere. All right.

SPEAKER_00 7:07

Well, cheap eggs, expensive properties.

SPEAKER_01 7:10

Exactly, yeah. Um, I also hit a wedding on Monday.

SPEAKER_00 7:14

Yeah, Monday wedding. How was that?

SPEAKER_01 7:15

It was pretty good. It was pretty good. It was a dry wedding. You ever been to a dry wedding?

SPEAKER_00 7:19

No, no, it was different. I've never actually even been dry at a wedding. I'm always soaked by the time.

SPEAKER_01 7:25

It was an outside wedding, so you would have been soaked. Oh, yeah, yeah. For sure.

SPEAKER_00 7:29

Yeah.

SPEAKER_01 7:30

Um, but that was a lot of fun. Um always fun to see people that you know take uh marriage seriously. Like um it's good to see. Not that not that uh some people don't. Um it was more of a religious-centered wedding. Um, but it was really cool to see the sanctuary of it and the uh the words that the uh uh parishioner used. It was really cool.

SPEAKER_00 7:53

That's good. I'm glad you had a good time. Yeah. And you know, a dry wedding's never a bad thing because it was Monday. You know, if it wasn't a dry wedding, Tuesday would have been a bad day for you.

SPEAKER_01 8:03

Exactly. Yes, yeah, for sure.

SPEAKER_00 8:06

Blessing in disguise.

SPEAKER_01 8:07

Blessing. Silver linings, yes. Do you have a go-to wedding song that you request from the DJ? I'm not really a request from the DJ guy, but I do have a favorite wedding shout song.

SPEAKER_00 8:17

Um not really. Okay. Um just good dance music. I I like classic dance music, I guess. Like, you know, 80s, 90s, really anything. I don't know. Gotcha.

SPEAKER_01 8:32

I'm more of on the classic, like shout is my probably my favorite wedding song.

SPEAKER_00 8:36

What I meant by classic.

SPEAKER_01 8:37

Gotcha. Okay.

SPEAKER_00 8:38

Not classic coal.

SPEAKER_01 8:39

Okay, okay.

SPEAKER_00 8:41

Well, you said 80s, 90s. Well, when when's when's that from?

SPEAKER_01 8:44

I want to say I want to say 70s. I'm not sure. But it stood the test of time. Yeah, yeah, yeah, for sure.

SPEAKER_00 8:50

Yeah. All those songs that have just been around forever. Yeah.

SPEAKER_01 8:53

It's just always fun to celebrate. I'm into that. Uh celebrate love.

SPEAKER_00 8:57

You know, I've I love love. In some recent ones I've been to, they've been playing like Britney Spears and Backstreet Boy. And I'm not Yeah.

SPEAKER_01 9:05

The Ots?

SPEAKER_00 9:06

Spice Girls.

SPEAKER_01 9:07

Yeah, it's it's okay.

SPEAKER_00 9:08

I can't, yeah.

SPEAKER_01 9:09

You know, well, it is what it is. For sure. Do you have a go-to dance move?

SPEAKER_00 9:14

Uh no, I don't think so.

SPEAKER_01 9:16

You have been known for the angel wings.

SPEAKER_00 9:17

Yeah, I can do I mean I just kind of go with the flow. You know, I might bop around from table to table, group to group. Who knows? No go-to move though. Gotcha. I did uh two years ago, I was jumping up and down to shout actually, and a knife flew out of my jacket and onto the floor. Blade out? No, no, no. Oh, okay. It was in. But my wife looks down at the floor and looks back at me like I just, you know, ruin the wedding.

SPEAKER_01 9:46

You're welcome, honey. You're safe.

SPEAKER_00 9:48

Yeah.

SPEAKER_01 9:49

For protection. Exactly.

SPEAKER_00 9:51

So that happened. That's probably my my go-to move right now is the old knife drop.

SPEAKER_01 9:56

Nice. The knife drop.

SPEAKER_00 9:58

Yeah. Jack knife.

SPEAKER_01 9:59

Bing bing ding ding ding ding.

SPEAKER_00 10:00

Yeah.

SPEAKER_01 10:01

We need a sound effect for that.

SPEAKER_00 10:02

Stay safe. Yes. Um, what else do we got? Well, we're talking about the World Cup, like we know what we're talking about.

SPEAKER_01 10:09

We are. We are experts. It's called soccer. Okay.

SPEAKER_00 10:12

You got your World Cup hat on.

SPEAKER_01 10:14

I do. I do. Know your limits World Cup hat. We got some hats here. Um, what are you doing? Like a college uh selection thing right now? Yeah, this is who I'm going with. This is who I'm going with. And no matter what, you're going with Hinkle. Yeah, exactly. Obviously. Easy selection. Easy selection. Yeah. Really only one choice to make.

SPEAKER_00 10:32

Exactly.

SPEAKER_01 10:33

Yeah. My smart money's on Hinkle. For sure. All right. Yeah. But um good choice. USA just uh just beat um Australia.

SPEAKER_02 10:42

Mm-hmm.

SPEAKER_01 10:43

And uh that was a great game to watch. Uh got to see that at TELUS. Um uh definite World Cup vibes. Great to see it in a crowd. First game I watched uh at my home, and I was screaming just as loud. Um, but it's fun when other people are also shouting.

SPEAKER_00 10:59

Oh, yeah, for sure. You gotta get the atmosphere. Yeah. And the atmosphere of the World Cup is great. Some people I've been listening to have been hating on all of the, you know, people that don't watch soccer normally that get into this, but I who cares? If you don't watch soccer normally.

SPEAKER_01 11:16

Yeah.

SPEAKER_00 11:16

Well, I mean it's not the most electric sport if you're not playing it, neither is golf. So, like, people, you know, there's certain people that are gonna watch it, but you don't have to watch soccer all year, every year, to be a fan of your country's team.

SPEAKER_01 11:30

Exactly. And I think that that's why, like, with golf specifically, like the Ryder Cup gets so much attention. Because you're cheering on, you know, your country.

SPEAKER_00 11:38

Yeah, and you never everybody's always against each other all the time, even in sports. You know, Phillies versus Braves or Phillies versus Philly versus Pittsburgh or whatever it may be. This is your chance to all cheer together. Yes. So who cares if you don't watch soccer? Cheer loud. Have a good time. Yeah, have a good time. Yeah.

SPEAKER_01 12:00

So USA um was the second team in the cup to advance to the knockout rounds. Um, they play Turkey to finish out their table. Uh, any predictions on the Turkey?

SPEAKER_00 12:10

Uh well, I think that if they kept the same lineup, they'd win. I don't I don't like how FIFA's done this this year with um basically they don't have to play all their players because they're already in.

SPEAKER_02 12:26

Mm-hmm.

SPEAKER_00 12:27

It would be stupid for the United States to play the starters that have a yellow card. Yes. Because if you get a yell if you get two yellows within the group stage, you're suspended for the next match.

SPEAKER_01 12:38

You're suspended for the rest of the game.

SPEAKER_00 12:40

And the next match.

SPEAKER_01 12:42

Oh no, you could still continue the game if you only got one yellow card, correct?

SPEAKER_00 12:46

Yeah. Okay. Yeah, there's a handful of people that have a yellow card. Gotcha. For a lot of teams. Yes. So the teams that are already, you know, put through to the next stage have the benefit of not playing their starters with a yellow.

SPEAKER_01 12:59

Gotcha.

SPEAKER_00 12:59

So they can rest them, um, and it resets after the group stage.

SPEAKER_01 13:05

Gotcha.

SPEAKER_00 13:06

So everybody will be a clean slate going into the next stage, which is nice, but you're not going to see a lot of those starting players starting players, you know, play.

SPEAKER_01 13:17

Well, that's also um But it's part of the game.

SPEAKER_00 13:20

It would be it would be dumb for them to to play those players.

SPEAKER_01 13:24

Yeah, but it's also a momentum thing, you know. Same thing with bye weeks. You lose that momentum. Uh momentum is everything in sports. Yeah. For sure.

SPEAKER_00 13:31

I just think soccer, it's it's very easy to get a yellow card, I think.

SPEAKER_01 13:37

Mm-hmm. And yeah, you sneeze on a guy, you get a yellow.

SPEAKER_00 13:40

Yeah, you don't you wouldn't want to be out for that match and the next match. So I don't know. It's tough. No telling, not knowing.

SPEAKER_01 13:47

Yeah. I mean, I'm expecting I'm expecting, you know, two large turkey legs.

SPEAKER_00 13:52

They have depth, I think. Yeah. I think they should be there. They're probably fine.

SPEAKER_01 13:56

Yeah. I mean, win, lose, or draw, they're they're on to the next stage. Yeah. And I think they're expecting to play the second place team from group B, which would either be Canada or Switzerland, who's actually playing today at three.

SPEAKER_00 14:11

Yes, they play today.

SPEAKER_01 14:12

Yeah.

SPEAKER_00 14:12

I actually have there's six games on today.

SPEAKER_01 14:15

Oh, nice. Unreal. Uh, three doubleheaders, two doubleheaders.

SPEAKER_00 14:20

Um three. Three, six, and nine. You'll have two games going on at once. So Fox One analysts will be, their heads will be spinning, probably. Um, you have Switzerland and Canada, Canada, Canada, Bosnia versus Qatar, Morocco and Haiti at six, Scotland and Brazil. Maybe an upset? Maybe probably not. Um, and then 9 p.m. you have South Africa versus South Korea, and Czechia versus Mexico.

SPEAKER_01 14:53

Nice. That uh that Switzerland-Canada game looks interesting because both of them are um it so it I think this game does mean something for them.

SPEAKER_00 15:04

It does, because if they tie, they both advance.

SPEAKER_01 15:07

If they tie, they both advance, that's correct. But if one position one or position two, it really depends on goal differential at that point, because the other two teams only have one point. So if the other if one of if Bosnia or Qatar wins, they'll get three points. Well, they're playing each, aren't they? They're playing each other. Yeah. So that's the final game. So they'll eat they each have one point. If they win, they'll get three points, they'll have four points. So if they if Switzerland or Canada loses, they'll also have four points. But I think it goes head-to-head matchup and goal differential. Um, so I think they're good on that. I think, but neither Switzerland nor Canada wants any part of playing the United States in the first round of the knockout stages. So both of them I think are going to be going for the win so that they don't have to play the United States in the next round.

SPEAKER_00 15:56

Well, who would they have to play then? Do you know? They would play the term.

SPEAKER_01 16:01

I think they will the winner plays it plays the second place of our group, and the second place plays the US.

SPEAKER_00 16:08

Okay. So it'll be fun. I both those three o'clock games mean something then. For sure. Um every game means something. Kind of reliant on Switzerland, Canada.

SPEAKER_01 16:18

Yeah. And it's kind of cool that they're happening at the same time, too. So it's not like they're gonna wait and see what the the ending of the Bosnia game is to see if they're gonna play everybody. They're gonna have to no matter what.

SPEAKER_00 16:28

Yeah, for sure. Now, is it still the gold differential thing? I thought that there was another thing that came up.

SPEAKER_01 16:34

Yeah, I think they're head-to-head. Um so like if Bosnia and Switzerland have the same amount of points, Switzerland already beat Bosnia, so I believe they would go ahead. But Zach's gonna look that up and let us know here in a second. Title points. Title and points goes to do it goes to gold differential first.

SPEAKER_00 17:10

I thought I heard something that it was different this year with the gold differential. So South Korea, if they lose, they need to at least score a goal. They're goal differentials. Well, if the Czech Republic would win. South Africa has a negative two.

SPEAKER_01 18:17

I do like the double headers for that, specifically. Because a lot of times you already know what you gotta do before the game goes. In this one, you just you gotta play hard.

SPEAKER_00 18:26

Yeah, so it works out both ways. Yeah in the United States one, they can sit players, and there's some other teams in that realm as well. Um, but when it comes down to this, both games matter, and the amount of goals that they score matters, so hopefully we got goals flying all over the place.

SPEAKER_01 18:42

Yeah, for sure. Speaking of goals flying all over the place, Lionel Messi. Lionel Messi. Yeah, however you want to pronounce it, messy.

SPEAKER_00 18:49

Five goals so far. Absolutely. And he missed the PK.

SPEAKER_01 18:52

He missed one too.

SPEAKER_00 18:53

I think he missed one in game two. Wow, that's w I think that would have been his first goal, the second game. And the announcers were saying he just doesn't want to add to his goals from a PK.

SPEAKER_01 19:03

Oh no, okay, all right, all right. Well he didn't. But obviously he would try to make it. Yeah, he became the most the most goal scoringist player in FIFA World Cup history, I believe.

SPEAKER_00 19:14

Most goal scoringest, yes. I think he did.

SPEAKER_01 19:17

Yeah.

SPEAKER_00 19:17

That's what it says on the uh the plaque that he got.

SPEAKER_01 19:20

Yeah. Um And with the popularity of soccer, does being the best soccer player of all time mean that you are the goat of goat of sports?

SPEAKER_00 19:32

Yeah, I'd say.

SPEAKER_01 19:33

I mean, it's definitely gotta be up there. And he's doing this all at like what 38 years old?

SPEAKER_00 19:41

Yeah. He's he's a freak. He's probably gonna plan another one, if I had to guess. I have trouble jogging for 90 minutes. Yeah, well, a lot of people do. Yeah. I have trouble sitting for 90 minutes.

SPEAKER_01 19:54

In one place, yeah. Yeah, yesterday during the meeting, I was like, we gotta get out of here.

SPEAKER_00 19:58

Um, 18 goals. Second place, Miroslav Klosa from Germany, and then oh, Mbappe is 16? Mm-hmm. Oh, and he's how old is he?

SPEAKER_01 20:13

He is a little younger. I believe he's late 20s at this point. Yeah, he's so he's still in his prime.

SPEAKER_00 20:18

Man, he's been I mean, I'm 36, I'm still in my prime. I didn't know he was that. So that's probably what uh Messi's trying to get ahead of him. He's only two behind him. But yeah, five goals so far in two games.

SPEAKER_01 20:31

Yeah, that's crazy. Unbelievable.

SPEAKER_00 20:32

Yeah, and a lot of them are just great from like the top of the box, just perfect.

SPEAKER_01 20:37

Just good to watch.

SPEAKER_00 20:38

It's just crazy how it's hard to imagine, but you don't see people get open like he does from like the top of the box. No. And people know that he's gonna take a shot if he has any opening.

SPEAKER_01 20:52

You still can't stop him.

SPEAKER_00 20:54

For some reason, he can just create an opening and get a shot off.

SPEAKER_01 20:58

Yeah.

SPEAKER_00 20:58

I mean, he's no Zlatan, but Well, did you hear Iber him talking about Messi? No, did he give him After he scored the the most goals, he was like silent and he was like, This is He's like, We'll never see anything like this again. Wow, that's what that's really high praise from Zot. He's like, he the he's the best player for sure, and he's like, we also just feel lucky that we're able to see him in our lifetime. Wow. And he's like, you know how many goals I have in a world in World Cups? And he's like, I think he played in like four. Mm-hmm. Zero.

SPEAKER_01 21:32

Really? No. No, because he has he had that one bicycle kick that's widely regarded as like one of the best World Cup goals to scored of all time.

SPEAKER_00 21:40

Are you sure that was in the World Cup?

SPEAKER_01 21:43

I know he was playing for Sweden when that happened. Put in his Latan bicycle kick.

SPEAKER_00 22:00

Maybe it was the group stages? Zero goals. Yeah, he has zero goals.

SPEAKER_01 22:04

Wow. Now it was, it was, I will, you know, I am gonna that goal was amazing, but I guess it was just in a regular international match.

SPEAKER_00 22:12

Probably, yeah. I mean, there's other tournaments that go on in between the World Cups, but I was gonna say, was I watching somebody else say that? No. Um He had 19 goals in World Cup qualifying matches, but never scored in the World Cup.

SPEAKER_01 22:28

Wow.

SPEAKER_00 22:29

Mm-hmm. So that that was him talking about Messi, and it was a cool he's an analyst now for Fox.

SPEAKER_01 22:36

Yes. Yeah.

SPEAKER_00 22:37

That was cool to see. And he he was playing in the MLS for a couple years. I think he was at uh He was in the Galaxy. And he was in um Orlando too, I think.

SPEAKER_01 22:47

He might have been. I I know that uh there's a famous story where Zlatan went to the LA Galaxy and took out a full uh two-page color ad bought for himself, and it just said, You're welcome, LA, I am here. Um and then in his first game for the LA Galaxy, he scored a goal from pretty much the half halfway down the pitch, which was wild.

SPEAKER_00 23:14

Okay. He scored three goals against uh Orlando to win. Whatever.

SPEAKER_01 23:27

What can you do?

SPEAKER_00 23:28

Yeah. Awesome. But yeah, that's crazy that somebody like him, one of the best soccer players ever, no goals in the World Cup. Yeah. So the World Cup means everything to these guys.

SPEAKER_01 23:41

Oh yeah, it's it's absolute, it's the pinnacle for them.

SPEAKER_00 23:46

And Portugal finally found their feet.

SPEAKER_01 23:48

Five-nothing on that game.

SPEAKER_00 23:49

Five-nothing.

SPEAKER_01 23:50

Yeah. That was wild.

SPEAKER_00 23:52

Well, I think, like you said, the first time when I was like, I was texting you, I was like, Spain didn't score, they tied, France didn't score, they tied. Portugal didn't score and they tied.

SPEAKER_01 24:07

Yeah.

SPEAKER_00 24:08

So three of the top favorites didn't score. All came out the next game and scored like four or five goals.

SPEAKER_01 24:14

Oh, yeah.

SPEAKER_00 24:15

And this the Spain, the the Spain uh Well, that was a must-win for them because if they lose another one or if they tie another one, then they're really in some trouble.

SPEAKER_01 24:23

Yeah, then they have to wait, then they have to rely on other people's outcomes. But yeah, I saw one of uh one of the cooler goals I've seen in the World Cup so far was it's like six or seven touches on Spain's end without touching the ground, finishing with a volley inside of the six-yard box for a goal. Absolute crazy.

SPEAKER_00 24:43

Yeah, yeah. It's it's awesome. Watching all this, like all the technology they have in soccer now that helps the refs or just helps analyze the players and how they shift. Like soccer's a big angles game. It's really not just who's the fastest and who can get in front of the other one. A lot of times, like if you know, if there's a ball kicked out in front, it comes down to who can get there first or whatever, but it's all angles and it shows they were talking about how Argentina controls the game even without the ball.

SPEAKER_01 25:15

Gotcha.

SPEAKER_00 25:15

And it was really interesting to me. But that's a huge thing about soccer that you don't probably, and I don't know, I haven't played soccer in a long time, but it probably doesn't get that in depth until you get to middle school, high school age. Yeah. With the angles and a lot of formations and yeah, a lot of off the ball spacing for sure.

SPEAKER_01 25:32

Do you think that professional uh soccer players are good at pool? A lot of angles.

SPEAKER_00 25:42

That's true.

SPEAKER_01 25:43

Never really thought about that.

SPEAKER_00 25:44

You'd think.

SPEAKER_01 25:46

Ain't no telling not knowing.

SPEAKER_00 25:47

I don't know. But they're used to hitting, they're creating angles around the balls, so maybe they are.

SPEAKER_01 25:52

I don't know.

SPEAKER_00 25:54

We'll have to see. I'm sure there's one soccer player that's good.

SPEAKER_01 25:56

Yeah, I'm sure there's a couple, for sure.

SPEAKER_00 25:58

I'm sure a lot of them have pool tables. Let's just put it that way.

SPEAKER_01 26:01

A lot of them have pools, too.

unknown 26:04

Exactly.

SPEAKER_00 26:05

I think they're good at pool, if you know what I mean. There we go.

SPEAKER_02 26:08

Sitting by the pool.

SPEAKER_00 26:12

Yeah, sitting on a floaty in the pool, you know, just thinking about all the money they're making. Um, I think I saw I heard this one, I think it was Spain. Maybe it was France. France or Spain, either way, both teams. Um, and I might have said this last time, but they had like the accumulation of money that their players were worth was almost two billion dollars.

SPEAKER_01 26:37

Okay.

SPEAKER_00 26:38

And the team that they were playing was like I think like a hundred million dollars. Wow. So that just shows you.

SPEAKER_01 26:45

I mean, obviously This is like their annual salaries for like their club teams.

SPEAKER_00 26:49

Yeah, yeah, yeah. So how much they're worth is based on how what their contracts are currently with their club teams. Um and I was like, I just that is just insane that it's almost 20 times more.

SPEAKER_01 27:01

Well, were they playing Saudi Arabia when this happened?

SPEAKER_00 27:06

I don't know. Did they play them?

SPEAKER_01 27:08

They did. That's who they that's who they just beat.

SPEAKER_00 27:10

It could have been.

SPEAKER_01 27:11

Yeah. Which tracks.

SPEAKER_00 27:13

Well, Saudi, um well, the Saudis pay everybody else.

SPEAKER_01 27:16

Well, yeah, but I would assume that most of those Saudi players probably don't play in Saudi leagues. Although I could be wrong. I would assume that they play for, you know, more European leagues because they are the best that the Saudis, you know, have for their national team. Um but who knows?

SPEAKER_00 27:34

But yeah, I mean there's 26 players to be almost two be worth two billion dollars is crazy.

SPEAKER_01 27:42

Well, yeah. What's what's Ronaldo's contract right now?

SPEAKER_00 27:46

Um, let's see. All right, everybody get ready to throw up. Uh six hundred and fifty-eight million?

SPEAKER_01 28:08

Gee, so he's over he's over a half a billi by himself.

SPEAKER_00 28:13

That's for three years.

SPEAKER_01 28:15

That's nuts.

SPEAKER_00 28:16

He makes two hundred and forty-five million dollars a year.

SPEAKER_01 28:19

Quarter billi a year, that's wild.

SPEAKER_00 28:22

Oh my gosh. That's way more than I thought.

SPEAKER_01 28:25

Yeah. He had And no offense to the Saudi League, but they're, I mean, comparatively like Scrubs. He's playing a bunch of you know, B team uh people.

SPEAKER_00 28:36

Dude, $33 million signing bonus. So just for signing the contract, he got $33 million. Wow. And then that bonus jumps to $52 million if he just renews for the second year.

SPEAKER_01 28:48

Wow.

SPEAKER_00 28:51

And he got 15% ownership in the club valued at $50 million.

SPEAKER_01 28:55

All about the schmoney.

SPEAKER_00 28:56

My gosh. It is. I'd like one millionth of that.

SPEAKER_01 29:06

Yeah, one one hundredth would be great.

SPEAKER_00 29:08

Yeah. We wouldn't be doing this anymore.

SPEAKER_01 29:10

No, that's for sure. Well, we'd be doing it for fun. Well from a boat.

SPEAKER_00 29:17

Yeah, from a pool. There we go. Um right. Well, enough talking about stuff that's gonna make us upset. Let's talk about stuff that doesn't make us upset. End of the podcast. Um, well, we yesterday we had a recap or we had um the annual branch meeting.

SPEAKER_01 29:38

Yep.

SPEAKER_00 29:39

Um, so that was it was Tim Nicastra, the CEO of Erie's last branch meeting. Mm-hmm. So he'll be retiring, spending time with his grandkids. And um he started on a nonprofit in Erie, he was talking about, so he'll be doing that.

SPEAKER_01 29:53

Yeah, that should be fun. They're gonna be rehabbing um his childhood neighborhood um and the school, uh, getting the people that need it most some help.

SPEAKER_00 30:03

Yeah, it's awesome.

SPEAKER_01 30:04

Yeah, that should be really cool. Um, ABM is uh, you know, each branch um of Erie has their own ABM, the Harrisburg branch, um, not to tune our own horn does very well. Uh number one branch, number one branch company wide. Um a lot of uh high high efficiency agencies in that branch. Um not just Hinkle. Uh, you know, you've got all throughout. Yeah, you've got uh absolute uh Mavericks out there. Yeah. So that was pretty cool. Like I I think what the number one person in in life premium generated almost a quarter of a billion dollars uh in life premium written in in the year.

SPEAKER_00 30:49

Yeah, yeah, in the year.

SPEAKER_01 30:51

That's in it's an insane amount of quarter of a million.

SPEAKER_00 30:54

Yeah. Did you say billion or million? Quarter of a million.

SPEAKER_01 30:57

Million. Sorry. I was bad. I almost fell off my chair. I didn't see that slide. Yeah, no, that was really cool. Um it really nice to see uh uh Tim uh for his last ABM. Um he has done an outstanding job as the uh president, correct?

SPEAKER_00 31:18

CEO. CEO President CO. President CEO.

SPEAKER_01 31:21

Okay. Well then who was the guy that was on the screen? I thought that was oh he was president of the board. President of the board. Okay, gotcha, gotcha, gotcha. Yeah, so that that was really nice. Um always good to see. Um although it does seem like a larger business, um, all of those gentlemen are very personable. Um they remember me, a peon, um, each time that I go and and uh uh say hi and introduce myself each year. Um so it's really nice to to kind of feel like um it's still got that small town feel.

SPEAKER_00 31:56

It's nice to be noticed.

SPEAKER_01 31:58

It is always nice to be noticed, yeah.

SPEAKER_00 32:00

Yeah, so that was good. Um congrats to him um on completing his time with Erie or for work in general.

SPEAKER_01 32:47

What can you do?

SPEAKER_00 32:48

Yeah, not much to say about that. But yeah, I mean, I think the future looks good. Obviously, there's a lot going on in the insurance landscape and every landscape there is, but um a lot of tech advancements and stuff, so hopefully it'll get easier to service our customers.

SPEAKER_01 33:06

Yeah, and uh just kind of a quick shout out, you know, um there is uh the IANB uh young agent conference coming up in October, uh, where they'll be talking a lot about stuff like that. Um that is October 13th and 14th, and you can go to IANB for me.com uh to register for that, and uh we hope to see you out. It should be a lot of fun.

SPEAKER_00 33:30

Yeah, we'll be there.

SPEAKER_01 33:31

Yeah, we'll definitely be there.

SPEAKER_00 33:32

We will be there for sure. Um it's in Gettysburg.

SPEAKER_01 33:35

It is in Gettysburg. Yes, yeah. Really nice. Uh I think they had that there last year, and it was really nice.

SPEAKER_00 33:41

Yeah, so reach out to them or to us if you want more info. Yeah. All right. Are we getting back in the weeds?

SPEAKER_01 33:48

Are we going are we going into the weeds?

SPEAKER_00 33:51

I think so.

SPEAKER_01 33:51

All right.

SPEAKER_00 33:52

I got a lot of weeds in my house. That's for dang sure.

SPEAKER_01 33:56

Get out the whacker.

SPEAKER_00 33:57

I well, I did, and then I knocked out my window of my wife's car.

SPEAKER_01 34:02

Oh, that is true. Yeah. Yeah.

SPEAKER_00 34:03

So now I'm afraid to use it.

SPEAKER_01 34:05

Well, maybe don't park your car next to the weed whacker.

SPEAKER_00 34:09

That's true.

SPEAKER_01 34:10

Lessons learned.

SPEAKER_00 34:12

I didn't park it.

SPEAKER_01 34:12

Yeah.

SPEAKER_00 34:14

Alright, into the weeds. We have a fun fact. Um, it just generated that fact. Did we already do that fact? Well, let's just see. Bananas are technically berries, but strawberries aren't. Thoughts on that?

SPEAKER_01 34:30

Huh. I believe that that would be because the seeds of the strawberry are on the outside of the berry. Whereas the seeds of the banana are inside of the storage unit or banana. Storage unit.

SPEAKER_00 34:45

Okay. Alright. Well, we'll have to do some more research on that because I don't believe anything you say.

SPEAKER_01 34:50

Yeah.

SPEAKER_00 34:51

Off the cuff. What about uh how about World Cup uh fun fact? Mm-hmm. During World World War II, the FIFA vice president secretly removed the solid gold gold trophy from the bank vault it was kept in to prevent the occupying troops from stealing it.

SPEAKER_01 35:10

Wow.

SPEAKER_00 35:11

Kept it under his bed.

SPEAKER_01 35:12

Where was this uh where was this tournament?

SPEAKER_00 35:16

I don't know.

SPEAKER_01 35:17

That's okay. That'll be on next week's episode.

SPEAKER_00 35:20

They didn't release it. They didn't want anybody to take it.

SPEAKER_01 35:23

Yeah.

SPEAKER_00 35:24

So we could just look up which tournament was taking place during World War II. And this could have just been the trophy they were holding. It might not have been during an active tournament.

SPEAKER_01 35:33

Gotcha.

SPEAKER_00 35:34

Because it's one solid gold trophy.

SPEAKER_01 35:36

Is it the same trophy?

SPEAKER_00 35:37

I think so, yeah. I think the teams get it. They probably get a replica made. Gotcha. But I think that the main trophy stays probably comes back.

SPEAKER_01 35:47

Good to know. Like the Stanley Cup thing.

SPEAKER_00 35:48

Well, the Stanley Cup, yeah, there's only one.

SPEAKER_01 35:50

Yeah. Hmm.

SPEAKER_00 35:51

Yeah. It also was stolen in England, I forget what year, but that was another fact about it, by fans. And then it was found three days later by a police dog in the woods.

SPEAKER_01 36:04

Oh wow. Well. Three fun facts. Unlimited, unnecessary discussion. Yes.

SPEAKER_00 36:13

Oh yeah. So we'll get better at this into the weeds. I like some of the conversations we have. Like the we gotta get back on the soup or um chowder. Super trout chowder, yeah. Because that's the that's the ongoing debate. Trout chowder? Troudder. Trout. Trout chowder. Doesn't sound bad.

SPEAKER_01 36:30

No.

SPEAKER_00 36:32

Sounds better than trout broth.

SPEAKER_01 36:35

Yeah, it does sound better than trout soup.

SPEAKER_00 36:37

Yeah.

SPEAKER_01 36:37

For sure.

SPEAKER_00 36:38

Yeah.

SPEAKER_01 36:40

Anything else? On into the weeds? Well, I am getting into the weeds. Um, I just had my first um my first training run for the Philly Marathon. So that started yesterday. Oh, yeah.

SPEAKER_00 36:55

Yeah, let's get into those weeds.

SPEAKER_01 36:57

Yeah, that was a lot of fun. I had uh uh uh my friend James, Bryant, and uh uh more than my friend, Elena um uh ran my first run with me, and that's always nice to run with people, makes it a lot easier. Um simple three miles. Uh we're gonna ramp up from there until November when we uh run the Philly marathon.

SPEAKER_00 37:16

Yeah, so what's your plan look like? Do you run is it every day, every other day? It's uh for the most part for the first less than what you've been running.

SPEAKER_01 37:24

Yeah, for the first few couple months, it's Tuesdays, Thursdays, and Saturdays. Okay. Easy runs on Tuesdays and Thursdays.

SPEAKER_00 37:30

Are you gonna be running in between that or not? Are you just gonna follow the plan?

SPEAKER_01 37:33

I think that I'm just gonna try and follow the plan. So it'll be less running for me, um, and then it'll be more of a focus. I'm gonna have to get my diet under control.

SPEAKER_00 37:42

Okay.

SPEAKER_01 37:43

Because I do love a late night pizza, and that probably should not happen the day before a marathon.

SPEAKER_00 37:51

Well, you have to eat during a marathon.

SPEAKER_01 37:54

That's correct. I've also had some discussions um uh with uh uh Megan Fessler McCarthy, the owner of Treadhouse, uh, on how best to fuel myself during that run. I have been um cautioned not to run the entire marathon without doing anything.

SPEAKER_00 38:10

Yeah, that's what I've heard from many people.

SPEAKER_01 38:13

Yes, yeah.

SPEAKER_00 38:14

And I think that would you probably wouldn't make it.

SPEAKER_01 38:16

It it tracks.

SPEAKER_00 38:18

Even if you think that you can. There's certain things that happen to your body probably at like 10, 15, 20 miles that you can't not predict.

SPEAKER_01 38:25

Yeah, for sure.

SPEAKER_00 38:26

So that's what what are you gonna get? Like those gel packs or something?

SPEAKER_01 38:29

Yes, yeah.

SPEAKER_00 38:31

It's just carbs basically, innit?

SPEAKER_01 38:32

Pretty much carbs and uh carbs and sugar, which are carbs.

SPEAKER_00 38:35

Yeah. Okay.

SPEAKER_01 38:36

Yeah, so that should be fun.

SPEAKER_00 38:38

Um I'll keep up getting run a marathon before.

SPEAKER_01 38:41

No, my longest run will be like three weeks before the marathon, and it's uh 20 miles.

SPEAKER_00 38:47

Okay. Yeah. Yeah, that that's tracks with what the other Andrew Porter did.

SPEAKER_01 38:52

Cool.

SPEAKER_00 38:53

Do you have a certain time you're trying to get?

SPEAKER_01 38:54

How much did the other Andrew Porter finish in?

SPEAKER_00 38:57

Um I will find out.

SPEAKER_01 38:59

You find that out.

SPEAKER_00 39:01

We can find out right now.

SPEAKER_01 39:02

Yeah, because that's gonna be my goal.

SPEAKER_00 39:05

That's a good goal.

SPEAKER_01 39:07

I know, right? I just came up with that on the spot.

SPEAKER_00 39:10

Number one, Andrew Porter.

SPEAKER_01 39:12

Who will it be? Did he run which which marathon did he run? The Pittsburgh? Mm-hmm. Okay. There's no time limit on the Pittsburgh.

SPEAKER_00 39:22

Really? Yep. Maybe you'll have to go out to Pittsburgh and do do that one too.

SPEAKER_01 39:27

I might have to. Uh that's in the spring, that just happened recently.

SPEAKER_00 39:31

Oh my gosh, I almost just texted you. What was your marathon? It's it's typed out. Oh man. It stinks knowing more than one Andrew Porter, trust me.

SPEAKER_01 39:45

You just put it in a group chat so that you just have to type one person, and then we'll have to figure out who it's to. Yeah, well, we were in a group chat at one point.

SPEAKER_00 39:53

Yes. Um what was your marathon time? We could just also look it up because his name is Andrew Porter, and I don't necessarily believe what comes out of their mouth first. Yeah, three hours and twenty minutes.

SPEAKER_01 40:11

Yeah. Okay. That'll be what he texts back, actually.

SPEAKER_00 40:17

No, he'll probably say why do you need to know? Yeah, that's true. That's true. Um, let's see here. Let's see if we can just find it. It was really cool when he was in it, um, the app, and I'm sure Philly does something similar too, but I don't think it was as cool as the Pittsburgh one. I basically I was following not like an a live feed of him, but it was tracking him GPS-wise. Oh, yeah. And I was going through the streets like on my phone.

SPEAKER_01 40:57

That's kind of cool.

SPEAKER_00 40:58

Yeah.

SPEAKER_01 40:58

Like a like a maps.

SPEAKER_00 41:00

So you could follow him and see the time markers and see, you know, each level and what he hit, but it was really just like hovering right over the little GPS dot that's kind of cool. Through the streets, and it was like all 3D and stuff. So that was pretty cool.

SPEAKER_01 41:11

Yeah, I'll definitely have to look that up because uh Elena has been asking, you know, how best uh she's trying to trying to meet me at different spots. And I'm I've you know already told her, listen, I'm gonna be uh completely honest with you, I'm probably gonna be too focused on not dying to notice that you're on the side of the road halfway through the marathon. So I I I said, I want you there at the start and I want you there at the end. That's really what I care about.

SPEAKER_00 41:37

Heck yeah. Are you guys gonna stay in the hotel? There's a hotel right there at the start and finish.

SPEAKER_01 41:41

Actually, I'm looking into an Airbnb and having some, because I've got some friends that are running the half, so we're gonna get it for Friday and Saturday. Um, and then it should be, you know, a fun time. So I'll be able to cheer on uh the homies at the half marathon, and then they'll be able to cheer me on at the marathon.

SPEAKER_00 41:58

That sounds awesome. We'll be there to support. Um the funny thing is when I Google Andrew Porter Marathon, Pittsburgh, our podcast comes up from 2024. Nice. Talking about him doing the marathon and a 72-hour water fast that we did.

SPEAKER_01 42:16

You know, we're gonna have to probably do one of those again here soon.

SPEAKER_00 42:19

Calm down there, marathon boy.

SPEAKER_01 42:21

Okay, alright.

SPEAKER_00 42:23

It's we'll find out we'll find out what his time was. But that's cool if you're searching for results of the Pittsburgh Marathon that were coming up.

SPEAKER_01 42:32

Yeah. And I mean, really, my goal is to my real goal is to run the whole thing. I don't want to have to walk. That's really the goal. Uh four hours would be nice. And obviously, when the other Andrew Porter, um, Andrew Porter B um texts in his time, then it'll be a minute faster than that. Um, but yeah, really the the real goal is to be able to run the whole thing.

SPEAKER_00 42:55

I think his was around 4 30. Cool. Or 4 20, maybe. That's right around 10 minutes. Yeah, it was around there. Cool. Um or 10 minute miles. Yeah. Yeah, exactly. No, so that'll be that'll be crazy, man.

SPEAKER_01 43:10

What day is that? That is November 22nd, I believe. Oh, really? Yeah.

unknown 43:16

Huh.

SPEAKER_00 43:17

Maybe when we went it was just really nice weather.

SPEAKER_01 43:20

It does tend to be a nicer, it has been the last couple ones, yeah.

SPEAKER_00 43:25

It was like warm this time. Mm-hmm. Yeah. Um, my sister-in-law did it, did the Philly one.

SPEAKER_01 43:30

Oh, cool.

SPEAKER_00 43:31

And the Pittsburgh one, I believe.

SPEAKER_01 43:32

Nice. The Fool?

SPEAKER_00 43:34

Yep. Well, she did the full Philly at least. Um, not sure if she did the full Pittsburgh yet. Which one is this? This is Jess Andrew's wife.

SPEAKER_01 43:41

Oh, very cool. Nice. Couple runners.

SPEAKER_00 43:43

Yep, yep. So I think I do think that she beat his time by like a minute.

SPEAKER_01 43:50

Well, then I guess I'm gonna have to beat both of 'em.

SPEAKER_00 43:52

He was angry.

SPEAKER_01 43:54

Oh.

SPEAKER_00 43:54

Let's put it that way.

SPEAKER_01 43:55

Not angry enough to sign up for the next one, though.

SPEAKER_00 43:58

Yeah, well, maybe he will. When he finds out you're doing it.

SPEAKER_01 44:01

That's where I'm this is we're gonna this is a call out to the under other Andrew Porter. Be there November 22nd. Run with me.

SPEAKER_00 44:09

Yeah. A A R R P P.

SPEAKER_01 44:11

A-A-R-R-P-P.

SPEAKER_00 44:12

Yep. Same middle initial two. Unreal.

SPEAKER_01 44:16

What can you do? Well Well, what's next for you? What do you got down the pipeline?

SPEAKER_00 44:21

Um what's on the sheet? Um next for me. I don't have anything down the pipeline. I just take it day by day.

SPEAKER_01 44:29

Nice. Well now your wife's gonna yell at you because you're definitely forgetting something.

SPEAKER_00 44:34

Well, we have a wedding this weekend, I'm sure. We have I mean there's always you actually have a wedding this weekend. That's hilarious. There's always something going on. Um but I I didn't know if you meant like pipeline for like running or fitness. I think it's just a cont constant battle with diet and fitness. Nice. Um so ongoing battle. But no, what I would like to do, honestly, is just set up another race because that's what really got me to run again every day was knowing that I had a race and knowing that I didn't want to embarrass myself. Okay.

unknown 45:08

Yeah.

SPEAKER_00 45:08

And not really embarrass myself, but be able to do it. Gotcha. Because if you just go into any race and think you're just gonna run it after not running for a year, it's gonna be tough.

SPEAKER_01 45:19

Yeah, yeah, for sure. Well, there's what are you what's your thoughts on a half marathon? Too much? Burden hand half coming up in August. That's thirteen? That's thirteen. And the burden hand half is a very flat course.

SPEAKER_00 45:33

I mean, I could maybe do it. We'll we'll see. I mean, I ran five miles and I know that that's about a third of that. Yeah. But I think if I train.

SPEAKER_01 45:44

More like half. I like to think of it as half.

SPEAKER_00 45:46

It's yeah. And then a 5K on top. It's like 40%. Yeah. So I could probably do another 40%, and then at that point, you have to do another 20. So I can maybe do it. I can maybe get talked into doing it.

SPEAKER_01 46:00

We'll have to look that up. Yeah, there's some 10Ks out there that's. Yeah, but it's you go, you run early, you're finished by you're finished by you start at seven, you're finished by ten.

SPEAKER_00 46:11

So it would take at least two hours, wouldn't it?

SPEAKER_01 46:13

Yeah.

SPEAKER_00 46:14

Yeah, yeah, yeah. Well, give me the info. Alright, cool. And we'll see.

SPEAKER_01 46:17

Alright, perfect.

SPEAKER_00 46:19

But yeah, the the full marathon. Not ready for it yet.

SPEAKER_01 46:24

Okay. Alright.

SPEAKER_00 46:25

And don't want to be ready for it yet.

SPEAKER_01 46:27

Okay. Alright.

SPEAKER_00 46:28

What's your what's uh I could do a half probably. I believe in you.

SPEAKER_01 46:33

What's your banger of the week?

SPEAKER_00 46:36

Um I was trying to find one. Banger of the week.

unknown 46:40

Banger.

SPEAKER_00 46:41

Um, I've just been listening to Tom Petty nonstop. Okay. Whether I'm running or cleaning the house or doing whatever. Can't get it off my Spotify.

SPEAKER_01 46:49

Nice.

SPEAKER_00 46:50

So Tom Petty is my banger of the week.

SPEAKER_01 46:52

Okay. All right.

SPEAKER_00 46:53

Just in general.

SPEAKER_01 46:54

I've been I just got Spotify Premium after about 15 years of the free version of Pandora. So I'm having to recreate my entire, you know, library and preferences. Um, and I'm creating a playlist for the uh marathon. So I've been big on Young Jeezy recently. Yes. Young Jeezy. A T-R-A-P-S-T-A-R. Okay.

unknown 47:15

Okay.

SPEAKER_00 47:16

I got some good ones for you. But my my workout songs are way different than everybody else's.

SPEAKER_01 47:21

Gotcha.

SPEAKER_00 47:22

Sarah'll come in and I'm like doing kettlebell swings and stuff, and it'll be like a Mumford and Sons like slow song. Yeah, that's not good. What are you doing? Yeah. I'm like, I don't know. I'm doing and hollering with kettlebells. Yeah. I don't know. Weird things motivate me. Like if I'm running, like sometimes a slower song works. Huh. Like a lot of Lumineer stuff.

SPEAKER_01 47:44

Okay.

SPEAKER_00 47:45

Yeah. It's weird. Nice. Maybe it just helps me get in the zone and stop thinking about the running part. It could be. I think like when you get too amped up, it just creates more confusion up there.

SPEAKER_01 48:00

I try and use my music as like a um uh to control my breathing or control my steps, whichever is closer to the song it's on at that point. Uh that seems to help. So it's more of like a um a training aid than it is, you know, me jamming out to music most times.

SPEAKER_00 48:17

Uh CCR is good.

SPEAKER_01 48:19

That's yeah.

SPEAKER_00 48:20

That's some good stuff.

SPEAKER_01 48:21

Yeah. Well, I'm I'm heavy on the hip hop right now. Okay. And uh that will have to be uh, you know, the 60s, 70s, 80s um classic rock is definitely gonna have to enter the playlist here soon.

SPEAKER_00 48:33

Yeah, for sure. Yeah. I mean it's like just think about the movie Remember the Titans. Every scene makes you want to run through a brick wall. That's very true. And it's really just CCR the whole time. Yeah. Yeah. So don't sleep on that. Maybe just put the Remember the Titans soundtrack in there, scattered.

SPEAKER_01 48:51

That's not a bad idea.

SPEAKER_00 48:52

And then every once in a while you'll get a strong side, left side, you know? What can you do? Exactly. Hold on to that ball, Petey. Hold on to that ball, Petey.

SPEAKER_01 49:00

Can't you see that's my brother? Hold on to that ball, Petey.

SPEAKER_00 49:04

Oh my gosh.

SPEAKER_01 49:06

Well, I think that pretty much wraps us up. I think we're good. Oh yeah, real quick before we head out, um, the 28th of June in Columbia is going to be the Columbia Bridge burn. Um, and it's gonna be the first time in over a decade that all of the piers are gonna be lit. So they put um they put wood and they burn burn wood in these metal cages on the old pier, the old Wrightsville piers. Um and that was done originally in 1863. The Union set the Wrightsville Bridge on fire to stop the Confederacy from advancing, um, and it actually did stop them from advancing into Columbia, but it sent them west, um, and it actually resulted in why Gettysburg was such a bloody battle, because the Virginia Confederacy showed up to Gettysburg and the Union Army was not expecting that. So that was kind of a fun fact I learned today.

SPEAKER_00 50:03

Yeah, see, I didn't know it was the chain reaction for the Gettysburg battle, but it makes sense. Yeah. So they went downriver, crossed at another p bridge or section. Yeah. And then they hit Gettysburg. Okay.

SPEAKER_01 50:17

Fun fact.

SPEAKER_00 50:18

Yeah. It's crazy.

SPEAKER_01 50:20

Yep.

SPEAKER_00 50:20

It's crazy. So thanks for that fun fact.

SPEAKER_01 50:22

Yeah, of course. If you're around, check it out. It should be it should be cool. I've never seen it since clearly it's the first time in over a decade it's happened for all of 'em.

SPEAKER_00 50:30

Yeah, I haven't seen it. There's obviously a lot of history there with that. Um it is pretty crazy that the old uh beams are still there. Yeah, that is cool. Yeah. So, you know, head on out to the the bridge burn. When's that? Uh the 28th of June. Okay.

SPEAKER_01 50:46

Yeah.

SPEAKER_00 50:47

Alright. Yeah. And who's where do you watch that from?

SPEAKER_01 50:51

Did they close that bridge? I believe they closed down the Wrightsville Bridge for that.

SPEAKER_00 50:54

Gotcha, okay.

SPEAKER_01 50:56

So it should be fun. Alright.

SPEAKER_00 50:58

So when you go out there and the the Wrightsville Bridge is not closed, you can blame Andrew.

SPEAKER_01 51:02

Well, there's a sidewalk.

SPEAKER_00 51:04

There is, there is. Yeah. I don't I don't like sidewalks on bridges.

SPEAKER_01 51:09

No.

SPEAKER_00 51:10

Yeah.

SPEAKER_01 51:10

Well, no, I neither do I. But I'm sure that they're gonna have it close. I like it better than swimming across the Susquehanna.

SPEAKER_00 51:19

Yeah, that'd be a tough sec section to swim across, too. Oh my gosh, yeah. A lot of rocks.

SPEAKER_01 51:24

A lot of rocks, a lot of holes. Yeah, be safe. A lot of holes down there.

SPEAKER_00 51:27

Yeah, you don't wanna you don't wanna get sucked into that.

SPEAKER_01 51:29

I highly um uh uh do not recommend swimming across the Susquehanna River.

SPEAKER_00 51:34

No.

SPEAKER_01 51:35

I recommend against it actually.

SPEAKER_00 51:36

Yeah, it's very dangerous. Yes. So be safe, everybody.
