Mm-hmm

... and so on and so forth.

And so I'm just hammering, hammering, hammering through these, trying to get appointments, trying to get appointments, trying to get appointments.

And I'm just, I'm, I'm only getting a few appointments and I'm grinding all day.

And the appointments I'm getting, they're no-showing me or they're just, they're broke or whatever it is.

And so I, I spent $1,000 in leads and didn't make a sale on my first week.

But then my, my mentor told me, you know, 1,000 buck- that was just the standard was $1,000 a week.

Mm-hmm.

[laughs]

Nice.

Um, trying to think [coughs] back to the last Indiana, University of Indiana receiver I can think of.

Is it An- didn't Anton Randall El go to, to University of Indiana? Yeah.

There's another trade.

Ooh, bow tie

... at my age, every, everything I think of should be stupid for people who are 30 years younger than me.

That's what, [snaps fingers] when I was that age, I was like, "Those guys are idiots." So I'm just, I'm just going with the natural evolution of-

[laughs]

... well, uh, basically since from the goal onwards, I was thinking some- you know, we're just gonna do a stupid back pass or something here.

But yeah, it w- it was better from City in terms of seeing out games than I've seen from them, you know, in, in the last few weeks or especially when we kind of went through that run of dropping points to the likes of Forest and Chelsea, et cetera, et cetera.

And, uh, I think, you know, you speak about that Cherki, but there was a passage where somebody wins a free kick or it could be a throw-in or something like that, and we just play it short and instantly win another free kick.

And it was in added time, and it was just sort of that little passage there of learning, right, okay, look, clearly it's just not gonna go in for us.

I think Nunes had that chance where it comes off the post.

Um, obviously Cherki has that one where he could play it across to Haaland.

Uh, thank you very much.

It's a two-year contract.

So here, here's, here's a draft thing that could happen.

I, it, they're saying it's not, but couldn't you see with the Dolphins, the place they're in, because this is not a, "We can go out and be good in two years." This is a three, four-year rebuild.

What?

Yeah.

I think they're coming home finally.

I think Idaho's just been a, just been a stepping stone.

I think the Mormons are finally coming home.

Um.

Oh, man, I mean, yeah, I, I personally think we should celebrate the entire saga.

Um, you know, this one movie made back in 1970, 1977 has now spawned, you know, a huge fan base, uh, characters, you know, different media, comics, books.

I mean, I'm a big Star Wars comic reader myself, so, um, I, I would love for them to have kind of like the Lucasfilm 50th, where they kind of had a celebration of, like, with the publishing line, and, you know, different card backs and stuff.

I, I, I would imagine something similar like that, at least that's what I hope.

Mm-hmm

... that's a, that, that's a really good question because I, there, I had a time in my life, like I mentioned earlier, where I thought I was too cool for toys.

I donated most of them, uh, or sold them.

No, not at all.

I, I don't see many celebrities.

That, that is, I, I don't have an eye for them.

Once I was waiting in line at an amusement park and Nicholas Cage was standing next to me, the famous actor.

I wouldn't have noticed him at all if my brother hadn't pointed him out, but when you do see someone you recognize in the wild, as it were, you take a moment to process the, uh, to make sense of it.

That's what happened to me.

I, I glitched, and I'm afraid I've made everything worse now.

We got interrupted.

Mm-hmm.

Uh, found out that I got the upgrade to captain, um, November of '23.

This house was, was a good house within our, uh, within our means then, and I always go back to it.

It's like I know people have done more kids in smaller places, but we were feeling, when the kids started crawling and whatnot, we were like, "Man, we feel really cramped here."

You know? But-

And I know they say that, like, just wait longer, and there's gonna be another perfect fit, but this house just spoke to us.

So we bought that one without selling the, the old one, and I didn't know how long that was gonna take to sell the ol- old one, so the 401[k] loan came out because my mentality was cash was king at the time.

So just liquid cash to be able to weather the storm between buying this new house and selling the old one-
