Yeah.

The North Coast and the Legacy, to be honest with you.

Both because you wanna know why? For me-We've almost been the exact same package from the ve- from the very beginning.

We were in an amber bottle with, with stickers on, on front and back.

Um, it was very similar to here.

The only reason we're wrapped now is because the state.

The state made us go to a black bottle.

Is your entry for this and your Legacy collab, is that available in stores right now as well?

Like, and what I watch, what's served up to me week in, week out is not very entertaining." That, and, and that seems to be the crux of it, d-don't you think?

Yeah, definitely.

And I think the kind of-- I, I think I've said this before, certainly to you about this, um, the kind of the elephant in the room here is that we complain as Spurs fans because the club has been taken in a direction that we were fully on board with.

We played our part in saying, "Fine, we'll pay higher tickets because we understand how football is on the provision that we start to compete and we start to get better.

Okay, knock down White Hart Lane, build a new stadium.

We'll pay the second highest, um, ticket prices in the league." And our-- the other end of the bargain hasn't been held up, and no one will point to that because it's all, you know, pointing out fans are paying too much is not good for Sky, it's not good for any broadcasters because they're all charging fans too high as well.

So it's that big part of it that gets missed that therefore we're just told, "Oh, shut up," you know.

Uh, it just, it's, it's, it's, it's so frustrating, and it's good that we've got all these [chuckles] podcasts to get all that out, isn't it?

Yeah

...

the first, first machine came out.

It's, uh, it's something we'd had in the pipeline for a little while.

Um, we, we saw a bit of an opportunity, uh, for a machine that, um, uh, that essentially people could use at home at an affordable price.

I think, at the time, uh, some of the, the more well-known, uh, club machines were, were available and, and you're looking sort of 2,000 quid plus.

Uh, it wasn't really an achievable f- thing for most people to have, uh, in the back garden or, um, or for a lot of clubs, uh, juniors and so forth.

... to a net by themselves and hit some balls?

Um, disappointed, but at the end of the day, we were quite happy with a point, weren't we?

Uh, very happy in the end.

I thought we were very sloppy through most of that game.

It's only the last sort of 20-odd minutes we decided to take the game to them.

Uh, looked pretty good going forward, uh, during those moments, playing some nice little bits of football.

But, uh, just, but, uh, yeah, on, on the whole, I thought it was a messy game.

Yeah, probably lucky to get the draw in the end.

Nerves? Nerves?

What is it, I know it's a Ford Explorer underneath, but the wagon part, w- how did this come to be?

You know what? I saw this, somebody that knew somebody sent me a guy that owned this down in, like, Alabama or Arkansas or something like that.

Oh, it is a Ford inside.

Uh, dashboard, everything, just sit like a normal car.

Uh, you don't wanna drop anything out of your pockets, 'cause the sides are just open to the road.

... of the guys that worked, and the awkward acquisitions, and the weird usage by Wa towards the end just c- they, they, they combined to just, you know, the team looked tired, the team looked dead.

I mean, my thoughts on the usage is that if you're a coach and your back is up against the wall, right, like, your default setting will be, "All right, how do I save my job, and what is one thing that I could control here where I, if I do this, well, don't blame me, this is, this was your idea." And I think he kind of took Palat, and took Soucy, and took Schenn, and went like, "You know what? You brought them in here.

I'm gonna play them in big roles.

I'm gonna put Schenn with Barzal for the most part.

I'm gonna put Palat in the top six." And, um, towards the end, they had Soucy playing big minutes, and, "Look, these are the guys you gave me, and these are the replacement pieces, and, and this is you." That, to me, was what I thought Wa was doing.

Now, you could be correct.

It could just be that these were guys that Wa legitimately thought were good in those roles.

Yeah

You didn't, you didn't think-

Didn't even open it.

You know, so I just...

Everything just got blocked.

I wasn't in a very good place either, you know, 'cause I'd just come back from a really nasty part of my life, been homeless, and then got homeless again.

Within a month, I'd be- got m- made homeless, like, three times.

And it was like, it was getting too much for me, so I had to go down to the mental health clinic.

What would you say to that?

You're all of us.

Wasn't your first week with, like, that you started with Goldfish that was, like, freshly from the hospital with your cast?

I'm with it.

I wonder, do you think the prices went up? Maybe the...

I wonder what our playmat value...

Maybe we need to start a website to track the value of our playmat to see if our exclusive playmat value goes up.

... and gone and find her?

I thought about that, but the fact of the matter is it's, it's...

Going to Nairobi would be no problem.

It's getting to Nanyuki would be the problem because I don't know how to get there, 'cause I'm dyslexic and I've got problems with learning and things like that.

You didn't, you didn't think-

Didn't even open it.

You know, so I just...

Everything just got blocked.

Like, break, break all this down.

Okay.

Uh, well, to take it back, Wes and I have been best friends since middle school.

He was the best man at both of my weddings.

Uh, he's a, he's a great guy.

And when he got in a car wreck a few years ago, it, it felt like I was in there with him.

I mean, everyone who knows Wes, uh, was terrified that we would lose him.

I mean, some things weren't so clear, but some were.

I do have a record collection, so I only had a few records, but when I got married, we asked for records for presents, so now we have loads of records.

Um, my daughter doesn't really collect things.

She has a few little animal figures, but not many, just a few.

I've got quite a lot of stuff, but I wish I had a little bit less.

I don't think I own a lot of stuff, but other people might think I do.

I have loads and loads of books that I very rarely read, so I should probably get rid of them all.

There's not a lot of space in our house for stuff.

Um, my son is obsessed with frogs, and he has loads of things that are frogs or look like frogs or books about frogs or has absolutely loads of them.

Mm-hmm.

Um, it's kind of you to s- s- stay, stay st- standing there when you did.

She's on fire.

I don't like grasshoppers.

They're just not crickets.

What do you think?

Yeah, that's good.

Eat, eat him up.

The fabric swatches on the outside, are some of them, like, um, that you didn't use in apparel? Some of them favorites from the apparel line? Like, what did you-

[laughs] Well, bring it out.

It's got everything.

It's got cake.

We put cake inside, like a devil's chocolate food cake, caramel, praline.

Um, but, uh, just as a starting point, just to jump off, um, in a, a very broad conversation, um, when you look back on that election, you think about it today, uh, what stands out in your mind? Um, and when you think about your vote in that election, um, is there anything that you would do differently now?

[clears throat] Well, the way I handled the dilemma I faced is that I refused to vote for either candidate, um, which is not a, an action I prefer taking, but it was a-- it was standing up, up and saying, "I'm, I'm not gonna be forced, um, to vote for either one because I think neither are qualified." And, um, so I, I stand by that.

There's been nothing that has happened-

happened-... um, that would change my thinking.

Um, uh, and my general response is that, um, [sighs] you know, I, I'm a, a right-leaning, uh, center right-leaning, um, Republican, um, a classic liberal, um, who's finding it difficult to, to locate himself in the modern Republican Party, but not in the least bit interested in participating in, um, the current nature of the Democratic Party.

So I'm, I'm a, I'm a person without a home, and, [clears throat] um, that remains the case.

I, I think Trump has turned out to be, in some ways, the worst, um, worst case scenario of himself.

... uh, and what you paid closest attention to?

[laughs]

And I stuck it on top of, you know, the, the c- enclosure that they put over the pool.

And the guy came out yesterday to close the spa down and, uh, he said, "Did, did you put that submersible pump on top of the, the netting there?" Like, and I said, "Well, yeah." He said, "Well, the water goes right through.

You've gotta put the submersible pump underneath that on the step." I didn't know that.

[laughs]

We lived, uh, about 10 miles from here, or five miles from here, and back then in the mid-'80s, we had a landline, you know, phone, okay? So I would answer this phone and say, "Hello, Gilles's," and I would hear this , like this pervert on the other end.

But the most dramatic change, all of Phil's cravings, not just for food, but for pills and alcohol, all those addictions, they just kind of vanished.

Literally, the, the bourbon in my freezer sat in my freezer for probably, I would say, maybe till Christmas or something like that.

And I, like, I took one drink, and I was like, "Oh, what, what are you doing? What, what are you doing, idiot?" I was just, didn't enjoy it at all.

So yeah, the craziest thing that I can describe it, what it does is limits the rewards.

Like, all those, the food and the pills and the alcohol, it quiets all that noise, all that extra noise that's in, you know, not in, in normal people, but in addicts, it just quiets it.

He's paying $50 a month.

month.And I get that it sounds crazy, but you know, I realize that for a lot of listeners, it would be insane to order something from China and all that.

But like, I don't know.

And secondly, give me your thoughts on how NVIDIA is navigating this China situation.

Thanks for having me on, gentlemen.

The effect of export controls were in tight focus.

NVIDIA has had to shift things around to comply with the new administration's trade policy, notably, as Toby said, NVIDIA took a four and a half billion dollar hit for having too many H20s on hand after the April 9th deadline for shipping them to China.

The H20s were an intentionally downgraded GPU model designed specifically to meet export controls set by the US government for China.

NVIDIA ended up making too many, took too many orders, and weren't able to ship them out in time.

And that gets even worse next quarter.

What did you notice there?

Yep.

... critical information that is not, you know, in a LLM that OpenAI might have been, uh, able to train on.

So, uh, you know, I think if you're ever going to see AI actually, uh, disrupt manufacturing-

Yeah.

... you know, all the big guys can just dump money on the fanciest schmanciest, you know, AI LM stuff, but the key to saving the American industrial base isn't just making the topmost, you know, wealthy companies have more and more advanced technologies and having, like, a 99%-1% split of that distribution technology.

Um, is, is it-

And, and, and I'm u-...

Yeah.

And I would say I'm unique in that I get to take people on a ropes course in Vermont.

So, you know, we bring participants up to 40, 50 feet in the air, and kind of have stretch moments for them.

So really have kind of really ex- ex- um, extreme experiences really that allows them to kind of develop more as a team.

And it doesn't matter if you're a fifth grader or you're a, a professional athlete.

Wow.
