I mean, what, what's that been like for you?
33:23
Uh, it's been cool.
33:24
I mean, I've ta- I talked to a handful of 'em.
33:26
I'm sure I'm gonna see 'em soon when I go to Pittsburgh in a couple weeks or so.
33:29
And, um, yeah, I think that for me, the transition to going to a new team, it's very rare you have guys that been with you, let alone a GM that drafted you.
33:37
So, uh, I think it's an advantage for me.
33:39
And again, I, it's a little more, uh, easy for me to kinda ask about how the team is, you know, certain questions about Pittsburgh, and, uh, it's been easy for me.
35:58
[laughs]
3:54
I mean, what, what's that been like for you?
3:58
Uh, it's been cool.
3:59
I mean, I've ta- I talked to a handful of them.
4:01
I'm sure I'm gonna see them soon when I go to Pittsburgh in a couple weeks or so.
4:05
And, um, yeah, I think that for me, the transition to going to a new team, it's very rare you have guys that been with you, let alone a GM that drafted you, so, uh, I think it's an advantage for me.
4:15
And again, I, it's a little more, uh, easy for me to kinda ask about how the team is, you know, certain questions about Pittsburgh and, uh, it's been easy for me.
4:24
So I had some previous discussions, um, with some guys that have been around, and look forward to, uh, when I get to Pittsburgh to be even more comfortable with the guys there.

Donald TrumpSOUNDBITE_SPEAKER
5:48
They thought that was a great move.
5:49
He's also said that he wants the rights for mining minerals here, rare earths, which Greenland says it has plenty of.
5:57
Greenlanders that I talk to and ministers in the government say, look, We have this deal with the United States in 1951, which gives the United States the right to have any amount of bases that it wants to have in Greenland, military bases.
6:12
That has the right to mine any amount of minerals they want.
6:15
The door's open for business.
6:17
The door's open for US troops.
6:19
And if you're here, the conversation you have with people is like, well, what does he mean when he says he needs it for national security interests? We don't see the Chinese, we don't see the Russians, and the door's open.

12 MINS LATER

So could this be the case where Trump has diagnosed some kind of problem here that is a real problem, but is just maybe off the mark on the solution?
23:25
Who instilled that in you? Like, is it something your family or your parents or loved ones that really got you going? Because every shift, you just don't take off.
23:32
Yeah, I just think my dad a lot, working hard.
23:35
I think that's kind of been my identity since I was a young kid that, you know, worked a lot on my skills, but obviously the work ethic aspect of it.
23:42
And when I was a kid, I mean, I trained a lot.
23:45
So I'm not going to go in training, you know, not working hard so I just think it's built installed with me from my dad my parents my family and and I just try to go out there and be an absolute competitor
25:13
But how much does that help, honestly? Because I think a lot of players don't have that ability to have a brother who also is going through the same things on a daily basis in the league.
25:21
Yeah, it's obviously nice.
25:21
I mean, he's been that kind of role model, I guess you could say, since I was a young age.
3:10
Who instilled that in you? Like, is it something your family or your parents or loved ones that really got you going? Because every shift, you just don't take off.
3:17
Yeah, I just think my dad a lot, working hard.
3:20
I think that's kind of been my identity since I was a young kid.
3:24
You know, it worked a lot on my skills, but obviously the work ethic aspect of it.
3:27
And when I was a kid, I mean, I trained a lot.
3:30
So I'm not going to go in training, you know, not working hard.
3:34
So I just think it's built installed with me from my dad, my parents, my family.
4:51
How much does it help having a brother in the league? Like, I know, obviously, you're Nick Robertson, you want to talk about Nick Robertson, you understand your brother's in Dallas, he's a great player, but how much does that help, honestly? Because I think a lot of players don't have that ability to have a brother who also is going through the same things on a daily basis in the league.
