Are you ready to play baseball version?

Yes.

I need a pen.

Daddy, you made an oopsie-daisy.

[laughs] Here are the rules of the game.

When it's a contestant's turn, they will choose a letter included in the phrase of the Bubbles Game Show.

Each letter is worth five points.

[laughs] All right, go White Sox.

Japan? Nice.

Japan.

Absolutely, uh, beautiful culture, amazing people, incredible foods, and incredible bar scene there.

For anyone that's not been, you have to go to Japan.

Good question.

Um, I got, uh, I got inspired when I visited, uh, Chichibu Distillery in Japan.

Absolutely incredible.

Uh, smaller producer.

Yeah.

So in the mid, so this was- It was the summer of '96.

Okay.

That's, that's when we started, like, uh, doing music together, me and Scart kind of started playing together, and then Supervillains were basically formed in '97.

And, you know, we've had a million different members since then, but, uh, Scart and I have been, uh, the constant the whole time.

And, uh, I've been playing shows as lo- I, I've known Charlie as long as I've been playing shows, basically.

So I've known, uh, Charlie and Tito and Mikey, all them guys for years and years and years.

We've done something significant here," or a person that you talked to or something that's like a milestone that kind of, like, marks, like, "Oh man, success."

[laughs]

Only, only a couple hundred.

[laughs] At least one or two.

Yeah.

Yeah, no, but you know, it's, I think the sort of, you know, live life with no regrets is, is a little bit of a cliche.

I think it's okay to have regrets.

You just have to learn from them, right? So that's, that's how I sort of live, yeah.

It was weird.

And look, I mean, th-th-this wasn't-- it's not sort of, you know, if you think of I'm an ambitious Labour politician who wants to get back into Westminster, um, Makerfield, despite being a Labour seat, isn't necessarily the first thing that you think of.

It's not the one I would've picked.

Um, the, the way that Makerfield, it used to be a very reliable La-Labour seat, a very strong Labour seat.

Um, in ninety-seven, Labour won seventy-four percent of the vote there.

Um, and things more or less continued in that direction until, uh, the twenty tens.

Um, they did get sixty percent in twenty seventeen, but then that dropped in twenty nineteen as it did in many places down to forty-five, and they didn't recover that in the last general election in twenty twenty-four.

Um, and in the wake of the local elections recently, it probably would be unwise for us to consider anywhere a safe Labour seat.

Mm-hmm.

[singing]

I can't stop reading.

When I see your face, I can't stop feeling.

I'm reeling.

This can't be reeling.

You're too gorgeous to be true.

[laughs]

Yikes.

We've done something significant here," or a person that you talked to or something that's like a milestone that kind of, like, marks, like, "Oh man, success."

Mi- a big milestone for us was [laughs] I think it was 1995.

No, '94.

1994, uh, the day before my first day of 11th grade, we opened for the Bosstones at The Edge.

The night before-

Yeah.

And so at any, you know, at one given time, there might've been four or five just horn players.

Um, but then for the core and for the, a, a good long chunk of, uh, Spit Valves when we were, you know, playing some, some good shows and had a good little run, there were seven players, uh, seven membersUm, Tito on drums, uh, Mikey on guitar, uh, Ricky on trumpet, Chris on sax, and at the time we did have a trombone player, but it, we went through a few of them.

What's the latest with him, especially as the, we're trying to figure out what the tackle picture looks like in this class?

Yeah, man, I had a chance to sit down with him out at Edge, came off the field running gas is where he was beating most of the, most of the DBs and the small athlete guys to get across the field.

But man, I got a chance to sit down with him.

Uh, he told me, you know, he plans on committing with June 21st, and, you know, he takes his official visit, uh, June 19th through the 20th to Texas, so Texas gets the last official visit.

But man, like, this kid's been a Longhorn fan [laughs] since, I don't know, since he was little, right? Uh, went to Lake Travis.

He knows Jackson Cook.

Uh, talks to Trevor Goose, be like, "Coach Kalfa's development track record of tackles stands out to him." He, he mentioned, you know, Kelvin Banks now Goose, who's projected to be a first-round pick coming to next year's draft.

Who are, are some of the teams Texas is, uh, contending with for this one?

Mm-hmm.

Yeah.

It's always like any time you're, you're working a job and, uh, there is a new guy that comes along, you, you just, you don't have time for new friends.

You're not...

You're automatically not gonna be sure about this guy, you know? But then just by, by starfishing 'em, you know, you figure it out.

Stuck out

...

the, the physics of it is impossible.

Bluey!

Here are the rules of the game.

When it's a contestant's turn, they will choose a letter included in the phrase of the Bubbles game show.

Each letter is worth five points.

If you choose a letter that appears more than once in the phrase, the question will be worth as many times as that letter appears.

For example, if you choose the letter B, that question will be worth 15 points.

If the contestant wins 50 points or more, they will earn access to Club Bubble.

[car roaring] [upbeat music]

Uh-huh

... uh, Doug, who comes in.

I call him my cousin.

He's actually not.

He's my wife's cousin, but we hang out more than I hang out with my wife.

So, uh, yeah, we're, we're, so a little trio, and we just talk about our trips, riding bikes, going to France, doing this and that, and yeah, we love it.

Yeah

... information, and Jim going off to the desert, and all this stuff, and actually it was really good.

Mm-hmm.

Or does he wish that he had spent more time or in the editing room or that sort of thing? If Jared is happy with his effort, then, you know, have at it, you know? Uh, you g- you gotta throw your art at the wall, and if it doesn't land, it doesn't land.

Right.

But if you're happy with it as an artist, that's fine.

If he regrets, you know, uh, maybe some contrast in the writer's room or some ideas or in the editing room, uh, or with the direction, then you gotta say, "Okay, well then, you know, where does, where does, uh, your passion lie if it's, if it's not for Shoresy season five?"

Did it?

When we saw it the first time, I thought it was amateurish, and I thought, "Oh, there's, you know, there's some stuff going on here." But to actually get as much attention as it did was a shock to me, and I think it's all because of the tie-in, the novelty of having it, you know, built around the universe of Winnie-the-Pooh, and I...

[sighs] 'Cause I didn't think the movie was that great, but I didn't even think it was good.

Sat by my own desk.

What a movie, guys.

What a movie that was.

That movie was immensely better, I think, than the original.

It was.

Where you can be brave.

Welcome to Club Bubble.

All right, we're gonna play Club Bubble right now.

But first, before we play Club Bubble, you gotta tell us what we did today.

[laughs]

And, but soon it's gonna be Father's Day too.

Tel les Jeux olympiques ?

Ouais.

Non, mais c'est après euh.

Après, je trouve que avant, les gens, enfin pas pour faire le boomer, tu vois, quand on parle de tout ça, les gens, je pense qu'avant, ils sacralisaient pas autant le, l'amour.

Nous, on a tendance un peu à le sacraliser, à le voir par le biais du, ben tu vois, du cinéma, des, des choses.

Même s'il a toujours été, il existe l'amour, bien sûr, mais peut-être qu'on le, il s'oublie dans le quotidien.

C'est dans un film, dans...

Ok.

Who the hell is Stephanie? I guess not.

Oh, oh, Erica, Stephanie, Stephanie works in my office.

We, uh...

It's 'cause we, we go golfing all the time.

I mean, it's not like you like golfing.

Wha- what is going on?

We took a...

La- I wa- try- as I was trying to say, last month we took a client golfing, and-Erica's really good at the golfing part, and I'm really good at the deal-making part.

And if so, uh, tell us about that as well i- in this part.

What I know about...

Um, so in the beginning, because I knew her story because it was out there on TikTok, um, I, I understood or had some understanding about where she came from.

I understood that she was a victim like you say.

She...

I do believe that she was.

Uh, I believe that, um, knowing her like I do now, I, I don't believe all of the things that she has said has happened, but I do believe that enough of the things that she said happened to make her, you know, a victim.

So how does this relationship end?

[laughs]

Um, just about that we can be here and out of school too, so that's a bonus.

Oh, well, either one.

Okay.

Um, so all time, it's Turo Polamalu.

Makes sense

...

since we've done, we've done one day of trading, so we did a pop-up.

Uh, end of Jan, we did it, um, at Tottenham Court Road.

It was like this massive pop-up space, massive LED screens.

Like, we really wanted to...

Because again, there's no coffee shop in the world that's really been produced like this, just selling flat whites.

... and just, it was muscle memory

Hi, Charlie.

When I got this assignment from Gail and accepted it, they said I was gonna speak on the action phase of the program while the old Charlie was still looking for step thirteen.

[laughing]

But the book said, and I've learned through this program, that I have to read the book, each word.

And it said, "Having had a spiritual awakening." That meant for me one thing.

I had to learn a new four-letter word: help.

I had to recognize that I was really powerless over persons, places, things, and situations, and included in those things was alcohol.

I had to overcome the fact that I was dropped off on the Lower East Side in 1942 during the race riots to a grandmother that drank, dropped by a mother who drank, who was divorcing a father that drank, and I had to recognize these things, and I carried those things for forty-four years.

Phillips says people coming for training have the exact same fears that we just heard from Charles.

Charles.The concern is about the supporters of the right wing who feel that they have been given permission to run roughshod at least, if not commit outright violence against people they don't like.

The day after the election, a man drove onto her college campus and yelled racial slurs at Black students.

Some people, they hate us so much that they really try to make it known how much we're not wanted here.

Black people, women, and also I feel like who's targeted now is just liberals because of Trump's second term.

[gentle music]

We'd been crammed into Buzz's single cab for an hour.

The sun was up, but the sky was so dark you couldn't tell, and I hadn't looked up from the screen anyway.

The keys were coming fast now that I was actually playing the game, but there'd been no sign of a login or any clue from Fairchild.

Everything in the game seemed to be part of the game.

I'd used the first key to open the door to the next level from the elevator.

When I stepped out, it was completely different.

[thunder rumbling]

Yeah.

... and fight off, uh, pests and things, things like that, that, that, uh, actually impact the bottom line.

Yeah, you know, the big thing is, you know, not only is it freeing up labor from, you know, having to go out and do this counting and sampling work, but the, perhaps the, the, the more important thing that's actually being, you know, done and the immediate ROI a lot of our farmers can see is actually a reduction in labor costs and crop inputs.

Because right now what, you know, this is a bit of a simplification, but what happens across a lot of these farms is that, you know, a farmer who's managing millions of trees and thousands of acres might go out and say, "Hey, you know, this is like one, you know, 50 acre plot of land, I'm going to do the exact same thing to every one of the 50,000 trees in this 50 acre plot of land." When in reality half the trees might only need half the amount of-

Mm-hmm.

... you know, pesticides or pruning, or, you know, fertilizers, or whatever it is they might be applying or doing to those trees.

So, it's very one size fits all.

And, you know, we can tell these farmers things like, "Hey, wait a minute.

Here's Reese's daughter, Charlie.

Obviously, I'd like them to find who did it and finally have that closure.

It's nice that we found her, her remains, and we know that she's not coming back now.

And, but different piece of you is always missing when you don't know who did this, why they did it, where they are, who they are, that kind of thing.

So it'd be really nice to have that type of closure, for sure.

So here's Charlie.

I do remember that day, and it's always kinda just replays in my head.

She told me I had to go to my aunt's house, that she was gonna watch me, and so we rode our bikes down.

She didn't live far from us.

And then we got there, and I was like, "Well, I don't wanna stay here.

I wanna go with you," 'cause I would go with her sometimes.

So I was like, "I don't wanna go.

They had found Reese's body, and Charlie still remembers what that conversation was like with her aunt and uncle when they told her.
