00:00:07.679 --> 00:00:10.160
Welcome back to another episode of Chasing the W.
00:00:10.480 --> 00:00:11.199
I'm Amanda.
00:00:11.279 --> 00:00:12.320
And I'm Bonnie.
00:00:12.720 --> 00:00:13.519
Bonnie, what's up?
00:00:13.599 --> 00:00:14.240
What's going on?
00:00:14.560 --> 00:00:14.960
Hey.
00:00:15.279 --> 00:00:16.719
You know, not a lot's going on.
00:00:16.800 --> 00:00:18.879
We were out of the country for two weeks.
00:00:19.199 --> 00:00:20.559
That's low key a lot going on.
00:00:20.719 --> 00:00:21.839
That is a lot going on, actually.
00:00:21.920 --> 00:00:22.879
Okay, you're right.
00:00:23.120 --> 00:00:29.120
Uh we went to Iceland for a week and then we went to Scotland for a week.
00:00:29.359 --> 00:00:31.039
And it was a gorgeous time.
00:00:31.280 --> 00:00:32.479
Gorgeous, gorgeous time.
00:00:32.560 --> 00:00:33.600
And I missed you every day.
00:00:33.759 --> 00:00:34.560
I missed you too.
00:00:34.799 --> 00:00:36.960
Every day I thought, what time is it in Iceland?
00:00:37.119 --> 00:00:37.280
Yeah.
00:00:37.439 --> 00:00:40.159
That was even after you were no longer in Iceland.
00:00:41.280 --> 00:00:45.119
Um it was a nice time to be away, but now we're broke as as hell.
00:00:45.200 --> 00:00:46.320
So we gotta stay home.
00:00:46.479 --> 00:00:47.679
It'd be like that sometimes.
00:00:47.840 --> 00:00:48.079
I know.
00:00:48.240 --> 00:00:48.640
You know what?
00:00:48.719 --> 00:00:49.520
This is what we work for.
00:00:49.600 --> 00:00:52.560
That's what I kept saying to Eliza when we were spending much money.
00:00:52.719 --> 00:00:54.000
I was like, this is what we work for.
00:00:54.240 --> 00:00:55.840
You can't take it with you, I'll tell you that.
00:00:56.079 --> 00:00:57.119
That's what I also say too.
00:00:57.439 --> 00:00:58.000
I say that all the time.
00:00:58.079 --> 00:00:58.560
You keep it.
00:00:58.719 --> 00:00:59.920
I'm not taking it after I die.
00:01:00.000 --> 00:01:01.119
What am I gonna do with all this money?
00:01:01.280 --> 00:01:02.960
We don't live to work, we work to live.
00:01:03.439 --> 00:01:04.079
Exactly.
00:01:04.719 --> 00:01:06.000
Remember that, listeners.
00:01:06.480 --> 00:01:08.400
I mean, because what are you gonna do?
00:01:08.719 --> 00:01:10.000
Bury the money with you?
00:01:10.319 --> 00:01:10.640
No.
00:01:11.359 --> 00:01:12.480
Worms will eat it.
00:01:12.640 --> 00:01:13.200
Yeah.
00:01:13.519 --> 00:01:14.879
Just like we're eating the worms.
00:01:14.959 --> 00:01:15.760
It's the circle of life.
00:01:15.840 --> 00:01:15.920
Yeah.
00:01:16.239 --> 00:01:18.159
Listeners, we're always eating worms on the pod.
00:01:18.640 --> 00:01:25.760
I usually we're having trolley sources.
00:01:25.920 --> 00:01:26.560
Right crawlers.
00:01:26.719 --> 00:01:27.519
Bright crawlers.
00:01:27.599 --> 00:01:27.840
Yep.
00:01:27.920 --> 00:01:35.040
They're the the ones you usually see in the bodega, notably not Albany's, which are Bonnie's favorite.
00:01:35.200 --> 00:01:35.359
True.
00:01:35.519 --> 00:01:36.959
Albanese are my favorite.
00:01:37.280 --> 00:01:39.760
But you know, trolley's good too.
00:01:40.079 --> 00:01:44.079
They do you remember when like there used to be video games with like trolley?
00:01:44.560 --> 00:01:45.040
Nope.
00:01:45.200 --> 00:01:46.239
Okay, I can't remember.
00:01:46.319 --> 00:01:46.799
Do you remember?
00:01:47.120 --> 00:01:48.560
Maybe it was like PC games.
00:01:48.719 --> 00:01:49.280
Oh my gosh.
00:01:49.599 --> 00:01:53.680
I don't remember, but it was like can't like branded candy games.
00:01:54.400 --> 00:01:54.879
That's crazy.
00:01:56.239 --> 00:01:56.400
Yeah.
00:01:57.439 --> 00:01:58.400
I'm gonna have to look this up later.
00:01:58.480 --> 00:02:03.120
But Bonnie's been just just a pot of fucking knowledge this weekend.
00:02:03.359 --> 00:02:07.359
She's like you're like five for five at this point.
00:02:07.599 --> 00:02:12.800
Like Bonnie very specifically called out the existence of a murder hornet.
00:02:12.879 --> 00:02:14.240
She's like, is that a murder hornet?
00:02:14.479 --> 00:02:16.159
We were just like, what are you talking about?
00:02:16.560 --> 00:02:19.280
And then and then you knew about the fucking the dolphins.
00:02:19.599 --> 00:02:19.919
Yeah.
00:02:20.080 --> 00:02:21.120
Tell people about the dolphins.
00:02:21.360 --> 00:02:22.400
I don't think people know about this.
00:02:22.800 --> 00:02:28.319
In San Diego, shout out to my brother-in-law Kyle because he knows this.
00:02:28.479 --> 00:02:29.680
He taught me, I think.
00:02:29.840 --> 00:02:43.439
Um, but in San Diego, the Navy trains dolphins to use their sonar echolocation um to like find weapons underneath the sea, in the sea.
00:02:43.680 --> 00:02:44.400
Bombs.
00:02:44.639 --> 00:02:48.400
I don't know what else would be there, but I guess mostly bombs.
00:02:48.719 --> 00:02:57.199
It's just crazy because Bonnie just randomly pulled this tidbit out of thin air, and we all low-key were gaslighting her.
00:02:57.280 --> 00:02:57.439
Yeah.
00:02:57.599 --> 00:02:59.120
You guys were like, no, you're stupid.
00:02:59.759 --> 00:03:01.039
Okay, well, no one said that.
00:03:01.280 --> 00:03:02.080
No one said that.
00:03:02.400 --> 00:03:02.960
No one said that.
00:03:03.120 --> 00:03:03.759
You're right, you're right.
00:03:04.000 --> 00:03:08.639
Actually, I think I think Megan said, Yeah, that's the story Bonnie told herself.
00:03:08.719 --> 00:03:08.879
Yeah.
00:03:09.039 --> 00:03:15.840
I think actually what Megan said was what AI ads have you been clicking, Bonnie?
00:03:16.159 --> 00:03:17.280
Which you know what?
00:03:17.439 --> 00:03:18.639
That's also fucked up.
00:03:18.800 --> 00:03:25.199
So I I I I don't know, Megan, but I I will admit I didn't believe I was just like, Bonnie's lost her shit.
00:03:25.280 --> 00:03:26.639
I was like, I don't know what she's talking about.
00:03:26.719 --> 00:03:27.280
But it's real.
00:03:27.439 --> 00:03:27.919
It is real.
00:03:28.080 --> 00:03:30.000
We Googled it, we have fact-checked it.
00:03:30.240 --> 00:03:33.360
It's pretty crazy what we humans are doing.
00:03:33.680 --> 00:03:35.439
Yeah, I just didn't I don't know.
00:03:35.520 --> 00:03:39.039
I guess I just didn't consider dolphins to be trainable.
00:03:39.360 --> 00:03:40.240
They're smart though.
00:03:40.319 --> 00:03:41.280
They're really smart.
00:03:41.520 --> 00:03:45.680
Yeah, I just like like why are we training dolphins?
00:03:46.000 --> 00:03:46.800
Do you know what I mean?
00:03:46.879 --> 00:03:48.960
Like I didn't think that was a thing that we were doing.
00:03:49.039 --> 00:03:52.479
I thought dolphins were just kind of out there chilling in their natural habitat.
00:03:52.879 --> 00:03:53.599
SeaWorld?
00:03:54.080 --> 00:03:55.039
Yeah, I guess.
00:03:55.680 --> 00:03:56.879
You know the dolphin shows.
00:03:57.039 --> 00:04:00.719
I guess I just don't think about SeaWorld because I don't give money to those establishments.
00:04:01.199 --> 00:04:01.520
Yeah.
00:04:01.759 --> 00:04:05.439
So I actually don't really often time, you know, I don't spend any thoughts on them.
00:04:05.599 --> 00:04:15.439
So also another thing about dolphins is that they can like sense a woman is pregnant because of like the echolocation stuff too.
00:04:15.919 --> 00:04:16.240
Whoa.
00:04:16.639 --> 00:04:19.040
Like a natural ultrasound, is that what you're saying?
00:04:19.199 --> 00:04:21.680
Um I don't know if it's like that.
00:04:22.000 --> 00:04:22.879
I mean, yeah, it is.
00:04:23.040 --> 00:04:23.680
Let's say yeah.
00:04:24.160 --> 00:04:25.199
Because like what else would it be?
00:04:25.519 --> 00:04:25.680
Yeah.
00:04:25.920 --> 00:04:27.199
Umar.
00:04:27.839 --> 00:04:28.959
Yeah, sonar, yeah, yeah, yeah.
00:04:29.120 --> 00:04:33.519
You can like hear the heartbeat and like sense that there's something in there.
00:04:34.160 --> 00:04:35.360
That's pretty insane.
00:04:35.920 --> 00:04:36.639
Cats too.
00:04:36.720 --> 00:04:38.639
I mean, animals are just they'd be knowing.
00:04:38.879 --> 00:04:39.759
They be knowing stuff.
00:04:40.000 --> 00:04:41.120
They'd be knowing stuff.
00:04:41.519 --> 00:04:45.839
That would be my superpower, I think, if I had one, is to be able to talk to animals.
00:04:46.319 --> 00:04:50.240
Honestly, yeah, because sometimes I like wonder what the hell they're thinking.
00:04:50.399 --> 00:04:51.439
Me too, all the time.
00:04:51.600 --> 00:04:57.279
Which actually, while you were gone, I went to the movies a lot because I bought myself an AMC A list.
00:04:57.519 --> 00:04:59.439
Oh, I didn't know this.
00:04:59.600 --> 00:05:02.160
Yeah, and so I have seen so many movies.
00:05:02.399 --> 00:05:03.199
Did you see Spider-Man?
00:05:03.360 --> 00:05:03.439
Yeah.
00:05:03.680 --> 00:05:04.079
I went off.
00:05:04.560 --> 00:05:06.319
Don't worry, we're I'm gonna see it again with you.
00:05:06.480 --> 00:05:07.040
Okay, great.
00:05:07.199 --> 00:05:10.000
That's that's the only reason why I went to go see it already.
00:05:10.079 --> 00:05:11.040
I said, I can't wait for them.
00:05:11.120 --> 00:05:12.079
I have to see it in IMAX.
00:05:12.639 --> 00:05:13.120
That's right.
00:05:13.199 --> 00:05:20.160
Um, so yeah, we saw, well, I saw the Odyssey 70 millimeters.
00:05:20.480 --> 00:05:20.959
Yep.
00:05:21.279 --> 00:05:23.600
Not IMAX, but 70 millimeters.
00:05:24.240 --> 00:05:27.759
And then I saw Spider-Man in IMAX.
00:05:28.399 --> 00:05:28.639
Okay.
00:05:28.879 --> 00:05:37.120
And then I also saw The Wrong Girls with Kristen Stewart and uh some other Ohio.
00:05:37.360 --> 00:05:37.920
Some other girls.
00:05:38.000 --> 00:05:38.160
Yeah.
00:05:38.560 --> 00:05:39.279
Shockwat.
00:05:39.519 --> 00:05:40.160
Yeah, yeah.
00:05:40.480 --> 00:05:41.279
Short Cat.
00:05:41.439 --> 00:05:42.560
Yeah, I heard like that.
00:05:42.800 --> 00:05:48.399
Um, and then I also saw the end of Oak Street with our Queen Anne Hathaway.
00:05:49.120 --> 00:05:50.879
Princess of Genovia.
00:05:51.199 --> 00:05:51.759
Princess.
00:05:52.319 --> 00:05:53.040
Princess.
00:05:53.600 --> 00:06:06.720
Um, okay, so without giving spoilers, the end of Oak Street is essentially like it's I was wondering if it was gonna if it was like Jurassic Park or like Jumanji adjacent adjacent, adjacent.
00:06:07.120 --> 00:06:10.319
Um but it was it was interesting.
00:06:10.399 --> 00:06:21.040
It was just like essentially like this entire two-mile radius of a neighborhood interesting, ends up like in a time warp where they get sent back to prehistoric times, and it's like a survival movie.
00:06:21.199 --> 00:06:21.759
I'm into it.
00:06:21.920 --> 00:06:24.079
It was actually, I'm not gonna lie, it was pretty it was pretty good.
00:06:24.160 --> 00:06:26.639
Anne Hathaway could play anyone, anything, anytime.
00:06:26.879 --> 00:06:30.720
Apparently, Eliza just told me from the background that it got bad reviews.
00:06:31.040 --> 00:06:31.680
It did?
00:06:31.839 --> 00:06:33.519
Yeah, I got like 30% on rotten tomatoes.
00:06:34.079 --> 00:06:34.560
You know what?
00:06:34.639 --> 00:06:36.079
But sometimes that doesn't matter.
00:06:36.240 --> 00:06:38.319
I got 30% on Rotten Tomatoes.
00:06:38.959 --> 00:06:42.319
But I just remember seeing sometimes you just gotta see the movie and judge the video.
00:06:42.480 --> 00:06:45.439
The producer loves to fact check me.
00:06:45.680 --> 00:06:47.680
She said, actually, that movie was shit.
00:06:47.839 --> 00:06:48.959
Oh, wait, no, sorry.
00:06:49.040 --> 00:06:49.439
I lied.
00:06:49.519 --> 00:06:50.800
It's 80% run tomatoes.
00:06:50.879 --> 00:06:51.040
Okay.
00:06:51.279 --> 00:06:52.879
Just to confirm, she's a liar.
00:06:53.040 --> 00:06:53.199
Yeah.
00:06:53.439 --> 00:06:53.839
I'm a liar.
00:06:54.000 --> 00:06:55.199
Don't listen to that last bit.
00:06:55.279 --> 00:06:56.720
Go see the end of Oak Street.
00:06:56.959 --> 00:06:59.279
Yeah, because Anne Hathaway really can do whatever she wants.
00:06:59.519 --> 00:07:00.000
She's so beautiful.
00:07:00.160 --> 00:07:01.439
Also, she's in everything right now.
00:07:01.680 --> 00:07:03.360
She's in the Odyssey, she's in that.
00:07:03.439 --> 00:07:05.279
She's in She's gonna be in Yes to you.
00:07:05.839 --> 00:07:07.600
Oh, yeah, she was stunning.
00:07:07.920 --> 00:07:10.720
She was stunning in Odd in the Odyssey.
00:07:11.600 --> 00:07:12.079
I love her.
00:07:12.480 --> 00:07:18.000
Okay, what I will say about the Odyssey, and I don't believe that spoilers exist for this movie.
00:07:18.160 --> 00:07:19.519
The story's been out for like a fucking week.
00:07:19.759 --> 00:07:22.000
We all read the fucking book in high school.
00:07:22.319 --> 00:07:27.839
So essentially the Odyssey is just like the story of Odysseus's journey back to his wife.
00:07:28.720 --> 00:07:31.519
Um man, she was stunning.
00:07:31.600 --> 00:07:37.279
The one thing that did take me out of it a little bit though is that I expected at least like a British accent.
00:07:37.759 --> 00:07:42.319
And then and then Tom Holland opened his mouth and he was American, and I was like, ugh, whoa.
00:07:42.560 --> 00:07:49.600
Cause I and also to be clear, we saw Spider-Man the night before, and then I went to go see the Odyssey right after, and so he was in both of those, and it was just like really, right?
00:07:49.839 --> 00:07:50.079
Yeah.
00:07:50.240 --> 00:07:52.959
He but he had more of a New York accent, I would say.
00:07:53.040 --> 00:07:56.079
His his accent has gotten much better for Spider-Man.
00:07:56.480 --> 00:08:10.639
I love when um I'm really bad at doing accents, so like when people can do really good American accents and like Yeah, when you don't know like there have been so many actors that like I have found out after the fact that like are Australian.
00:08:10.800 --> 00:08:14.079
Like who's the um girl in secession, babe?
00:08:14.319 --> 00:08:17.040
Uh uh, I forget her name.
00:08:17.199 --> 00:08:18.800
She's like reddish hair.
00:08:20.480 --> 00:08:21.279
Bless you.
00:08:21.759 --> 00:08:22.399
Bless you.
00:08:22.800 --> 00:08:23.360
Bless you.
00:08:23.600 --> 00:08:26.160
Uh she's Australian.
00:08:27.279 --> 00:08:28.160
Sarah Snook.
00:08:28.399 --> 00:08:28.800
Yes.
00:08:29.120 --> 00:08:32.720
She's Australian, but her American accent is so fucking good.
00:08:32.879 --> 00:08:33.440
You would never know.
00:08:33.679 --> 00:08:38.000
It's like the guy um from Widow's Bay, he's the main character.
00:08:38.399 --> 00:08:39.440
He's Australian, isn't he?
00:08:39.679 --> 00:08:40.879
He's English, but Welsh.
00:08:41.279 --> 00:08:42.080
Welsh, sorry.
00:08:42.320 --> 00:08:46.639
But I heard him speak with the act like a British act or Welsh accent, whatever.
00:08:46.879 --> 00:08:50.799
And I was like, oh my god, I had I totally forgot he wasn't American.
00:08:51.039 --> 00:08:54.240
No, like we saw we saw some interviews and we were just like, whoa.
00:08:54.559 --> 00:08:54.720
Yeah.
00:08:55.200 --> 00:08:55.919
So who is that?
00:08:57.360 --> 00:08:58.320
The Americans.
00:08:58.960 --> 00:09:00.000
The Americans?
00:09:00.159 --> 00:09:00.399
Yes.
00:09:01.360 --> 00:09:03.759
I think I told you about it at Brenda's birthday.
00:09:03.919 --> 00:09:06.960
It's him, Matthew Reese, David Russell.
00:09:07.200 --> 00:09:07.600
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
00:09:07.679 --> 00:09:08.240
That's his name.
00:09:08.480 --> 00:09:14.080
That's where they met, and now they're like, they're I don't think they're married, but they're like partners.
00:09:14.320 --> 00:09:16.159
They've been partners forever and they have kids together.
00:09:16.399 --> 00:09:17.279
It's just like crazy.
00:09:17.360 --> 00:09:23.679
Do you remember, and I we will get off of this, this, this pleasantry shit in a second, but like how we started.
00:09:23.840 --> 00:09:26.080
Yeah, have you seen have you seen Phone Booth?
00:09:26.240 --> 00:09:27.440
It's like a super old movie.
00:09:27.600 --> 00:09:36.720
Okay, Brenda watched it with me the first time a couple years ago, and had no idea Colin Farrell was not American.
00:09:36.879 --> 00:09:37.039
Yeah.
00:09:37.200 --> 00:09:37.679
You didn't?
00:09:37.919 --> 00:09:42.879
At that when I when you watched in the years that I spent watching that movie growing up, which why was I watching that as a child?
00:09:43.200 --> 00:09:43.440
I don't know.
00:09:43.600 --> 00:09:45.679
That was a fucking scary ass movie, actually.
00:09:45.840 --> 00:09:46.639
It is such a good one.
00:09:46.720 --> 00:09:48.639
And I imagine how cheap it was to shoot that.
00:09:48.799 --> 00:09:49.039
Exactly.
00:09:49.279 --> 00:09:49.759
Just one location.
00:09:50.159 --> 00:09:50.720
One location.
00:09:50.879 --> 00:09:52.559
And this is and this is the work brain.
00:09:52.639 --> 00:09:54.559
I'm just like one location, one set.
00:09:54.720 --> 00:09:55.279
Yeah.
00:09:55.519 --> 00:09:57.440
Like not even that much dressing to do.
00:09:57.519 --> 00:09:58.240
It's a phone booth.
00:09:58.399 --> 00:10:02.720
No, and he one costume, one costume that over time is destroyed.
00:10:02.879 --> 00:10:03.279
Yep.
00:10:03.440 --> 00:10:10.879
And so I mean, because even the the background of when he's making these phone calls to like his theater and stuff could be green screen.
00:10:11.039 --> 00:10:11.679
Could be green screen.
00:10:11.840 --> 00:10:12.559
Could be green screen.
00:10:13.039 --> 00:10:15.759
Like she could she could have been behind the building that they were filming.
00:10:16.000 --> 00:10:16.559
Like it's crazy.
00:10:16.799 --> 00:10:18.879
Must have been the most we have to look it up after this.
00:10:18.960 --> 00:10:21.919
I just I'm very curious how much their budget was and then how much they made.
00:10:22.080 --> 00:10:22.720
That's a great.
00:10:22.879 --> 00:10:23.679
Yeah, we'll look it up.
00:10:24.240 --> 00:10:25.120
We're gonna do it right now.
00:10:25.360 --> 00:10:27.600
Actually, yeah, Brenda, will you look it up, please?
00:10:28.480 --> 00:10:30.480
I'm like, how efficient was that movie?
00:10:30.720 --> 00:10:32.240
That's how we need to be shooting everything.
00:10:32.559 --> 00:10:33.279
Honestly.
00:10:33.600 --> 00:10:34.879
But no, not anymore.
00:10:35.039 --> 00:10:38.639
Now we're shooting like the Odyssey on 70 millimeter.
00:10:40.559 --> 00:10:41.519
Tell me, Brenda.
00:10:42.159 --> 00:10:46.399
Well, the AI overview did say that it cost$13 million.
00:10:46.960 --> 00:10:49.759
Oh but it made$97.
00:10:50.399 --> 00:10:50.559
Oh.
00:10:50.879 --> 00:10:55.440
Yeah, so the$13$3 million really I feel like isn't that much.
00:10:57.759 --> 00:10:58.799
And Keef Sutherland.
00:11:03.759 --> 00:11:06.480
So like$13 million back then is a lot more.
00:11:08.159 --> 00:11:08.559
That's true.
00:11:08.960 --> 00:11:09.200
Inflation.
00:11:09.440 --> 00:11:10.320
Inflation, a recession.
00:11:10.399 --> 00:11:11.440
Yep, it's true, it's true, it's true.
00:11:11.759 --> 00:11:13.120
24 years ago.
00:11:14.080 --> 00:11:15.200
How old was I?
00:11:17.039 --> 00:11:17.759
12?
00:11:19.840 --> 00:11:21.440
I saw that when I was 12.
00:11:21.840 --> 00:11:23.279
I was nine?
00:11:23.759 --> 00:11:24.960
You saw that when you were nine.
00:11:25.120 --> 00:11:26.799
Yeah, and I was eating that shit up too.
00:11:26.879 --> 00:11:27.840
We had it on DVD.
00:11:28.240 --> 00:11:29.840
Was it R or PG 13?
00:11:31.279 --> 00:11:33.039
Yeah, definitely rated R.
00:11:33.120 --> 00:11:33.600
Yeah.
00:11:34.000 --> 00:11:44.159
Because he made he made Kiefer Sutherland made Colin Farrell call his wife and say, I wanted to fuck her.
00:11:44.480 --> 00:11:45.200
Just like that.
00:11:45.279 --> 00:11:50.720
I remember because I was like, dang, this guy really taken L after L.
00:11:51.120 --> 00:11:54.480
Locked in a phone booth, cheating on his little wife.
00:11:54.799 --> 00:11:55.919
Cheating on his little wife.
00:11:56.159 --> 00:12:00.399
His little wife, his little girlfriend shows up, they're on opposite ends of the street.
00:12:00.480 --> 00:12:03.440
They make eye contact with because he said that's her.
00:12:03.600 --> 00:12:03.759
Yeah.
00:12:03.919 --> 00:12:04.559
And that's her.
00:12:04.639 --> 00:12:06.240
That is humiliating.
00:12:06.480 --> 00:12:07.440
That is humiliating.
00:12:07.600 --> 00:12:08.720
Well, men are trash.
00:12:08.879 --> 00:12:09.600
So yeah.
00:12:10.000 --> 00:12:10.720
What are you gonna do?
00:12:10.879 --> 00:12:18.320
Anyway, I guess we should talk about all the things that have been happening in the last couple of weeks because it's been a it's been a busy couple of weeks.
00:12:18.480 --> 00:12:21.759
It's been a busy couple weeks, it's been a crazy couple weeks.
00:12:22.000 --> 00:12:26.399
You know, the W, there's a lot, there's a lot happening on and off the court.
00:12:26.720 --> 00:12:28.639
Let's uh let's start.
00:12:28.879 --> 00:12:30.639
Yeah, let's get into around the W.
00:12:31.279 --> 00:12:35.279
Okay, so around the W, let's uh talk about two.
00:12:35.919 --> 00:12:41.279
I mean, okay, maybe not one of them isn't so major, but two respectfully, respectfully, respectfully.
00:12:41.440 --> 00:12:41.840
Respectfully.
00:12:42.000 --> 00:12:43.120
It's just that when we compare them.
00:12:43.200 --> 00:12:49.440
So Rebecca Allen and Neka Oguma Key announced that they are both retiring after this season.
00:12:49.679 --> 00:12:52.320
Notably, Rebecca Allen is 32 years old.
00:12:52.399 --> 00:12:56.320
She is my age, so all this to say, I could have been in the W.
00:12:56.639 --> 00:12:56.960
I know.
00:12:57.120 --> 00:12:59.759
And Eliza could have really been in the W.
00:13:00.000 --> 00:13:00.320
Yeah.
00:13:00.480 --> 00:13:03.919
Like, especially tall girl would have been tall girl in out there.
00:13:04.159 --> 00:13:11.039
You know, just as a quick side note, Rebecca Gardner was um drafted into the W at 31.
00:13:11.840 --> 00:13:12.320
What?
00:13:12.559 --> 00:13:13.200
Yeah.
00:13:13.919 --> 00:13:15.360
Are you saying there's a chance?
00:13:15.600 --> 00:13:17.360
Yeah, I'm saying there's a chance.
00:13:17.600 --> 00:13:19.360
Don't close the door, you know?
00:13:19.600 --> 00:13:20.399
Yeah, okay.
00:13:20.559 --> 00:13:24.879
So then once we wrap up the podcast, Eliza, get in the fucking gym.
00:13:25.279 --> 00:13:25.600
Okay.
00:13:25.919 --> 00:13:27.120
Start putting shots up.
00:13:27.279 --> 00:13:28.799
Game ready shooting every Thursday.
00:13:28.960 --> 00:13:29.279
Yeah, baby.
00:13:29.360 --> 00:13:30.799
You need to get some muscle on those bones.
00:13:31.039 --> 00:13:32.480
Because they're making millions now.
00:13:32.639 --> 00:13:36.799
They're making millions now, and then you can make millions, and then I don't have to work anymore.
00:13:36.960 --> 00:13:37.840
Exactly.
00:13:38.159 --> 00:13:42.399
Like, it's just a couple sacrifices, Eliza.
00:13:42.960 --> 00:13:49.919
Um, yeah, well, Beck Beck Allen, she's 32, 11 seasons in the league.
00:13:50.159 --> 00:13:51.039
She's 33.
00:13:51.200 --> 00:13:52.399
Did she turn 33 already?
00:13:52.559 --> 00:13:52.720
Yeah.
00:13:52.879 --> 00:13:53.840
Is she a 93 baby?
00:13:54.080 --> 00:13:54.799
She's 92, baby.
00:13:55.120 --> 00:13:55.679
When's her birthday?
00:13:56.639 --> 00:13:57.360
November 6th.
00:13:57.519 --> 00:13:58.480
Oh wow, it's very close to me.
00:13:58.639 --> 00:13:59.200
Oh my gosh.
00:13:59.279 --> 00:13:59.679
I'm sorry.
00:13:59.840 --> 00:14:00.240
She's in her.
00:14:01.200 --> 00:14:02.080
She's a twin.
00:14:02.480 --> 00:14:02.720
Wait.
00:14:02.879 --> 00:14:03.759
This should wait.
00:14:04.000 --> 00:14:05.679
Did we bring this up in our twins episode?
00:14:05.840 --> 00:14:06.240
Yeah, we did.
00:14:06.320 --> 00:14:06.480
We did.
00:14:06.799 --> 00:14:07.120
Oh, we did?
00:14:08.080 --> 00:14:09.039
Yeah, we did.
00:14:09.120 --> 00:14:09.519
It's a boy.
00:14:09.679 --> 00:14:10.080
He's a boy.
00:14:10.320 --> 00:14:10.799
Is it Robert?
00:14:11.039 --> 00:14:11.679
Oh, it's a boy.
00:14:11.919 --> 00:14:13.039
Is it Robert?
00:14:14.159 --> 00:14:15.759
Is it Robert Allen?
00:14:18.159 --> 00:14:20.159
Okay, so she's actually at 33.
00:14:20.240 --> 00:14:21.519
She has a twin named Chris.
00:14:21.679 --> 00:14:22.639
Is it Christopher?
00:14:22.960 --> 00:14:23.360
Probably.
00:14:23.600 --> 00:14:24.240
Christopher.
00:14:24.399 --> 00:14:25.039
Christopher?
00:14:25.200 --> 00:14:25.360
Okay.
00:14:25.440 --> 00:14:27.360
She played 11 seasons in the W.
00:14:27.440 --> 00:14:29.200
She was drafted in 2015.
00:14:29.440 --> 00:14:31.919
I'm pretty certain by the New York Liberty.
00:14:32.559 --> 00:14:38.720
She's played for The Liberty, The Sun, Phoenix, and Chicago.
00:14:38.960 --> 00:14:43.600
Notably known for saying that Chicago is shit.
00:14:43.759 --> 00:14:44.159
Yeah.
00:14:44.399 --> 00:14:46.559
They share the locker room with the public.
00:14:46.639 --> 00:14:48.720
And then she returned to the Liberty.
00:14:48.960 --> 00:14:51.679
And she was stinking it up to start out.
00:14:51.759 --> 00:14:55.200
And then ever since she said she was retiring, she was hooking up.
00:14:55.279 --> 00:14:56.559
She said, fuck it, I'm retiring.
00:14:56.720 --> 00:14:57.440
Go out with a bang.
00:14:57.600 --> 00:14:57.679
Yeah.
00:14:57.759 --> 00:15:00.080
She's like, this is my last chance to prove myself.
00:15:00.320 --> 00:15:01.279
She wants a chip.
00:15:01.440 --> 00:15:03.840
And she's not gonna get it, probably.
00:15:04.080 --> 00:15:06.639
But like, and that's nothing to say about her.
00:15:06.720 --> 00:15:10.559
It's just that I just don't think that that's our trajectory this year, but we'll talk about that more later.
00:15:11.360 --> 00:15:16.720
But really, sick, I mean like a decade plus in the in the league.
00:15:17.120 --> 00:15:20.399
She made it to the new CBA, so hopefully she's getting a little bit more money.
00:15:21.600 --> 00:15:24.000
And I wonder what she will do after.
00:15:25.279 --> 00:15:27.440
Maybe do you think she'll be back to Australia?
00:15:27.679 --> 00:15:29.519
Yeah, but do you think she's gonna like coach?
00:15:29.679 --> 00:15:32.639
Do you think she's gonna like front office?
00:15:32.879 --> 00:15:33.360
I don't know.
00:15:33.519 --> 00:15:37.919
Do you think if so if she retires from the W, does that mean that she won't play in Australia either?
00:15:38.320 --> 00:15:40.559
No, I think that she could probably still play, right?
00:15:40.639 --> 00:15:42.799
Like salary this year is 350k.
00:15:43.360 --> 00:15:44.960
Base salary 350k?
00:15:45.120 --> 00:15:45.519
Not terrible.
00:15:47.919 --> 00:15:52.320
I mean, that's better than the fucking 90,000 she was probably making last year.
00:15:52.879 --> 00:15:56.559
Yeah, I mean, pretty pretty good come up.
00:15:57.679 --> 00:16:00.799
But I I do feel like the way she's playing now, like she could have bought it.
00:16:00.879 --> 00:16:01.039
I know.
00:16:01.120 --> 00:16:01.919
I'm like, do you want to do more?
00:16:02.240 --> 00:16:03.919
I was gonna say, do you want to stay on for one more year?
00:16:04.000 --> 00:16:05.039
But she might retract.
00:16:05.519 --> 00:16:06.320
She might retract the city.
00:16:07.759 --> 00:16:08.480
Like Serena.
00:16:08.639 --> 00:16:08.960
Yep.
00:16:09.120 --> 00:16:10.480
And who else did that?
00:16:10.799 --> 00:16:11.279
I don't know.
00:16:11.519 --> 00:16:12.159
Someone else did that.
00:16:12.559 --> 00:16:16.960
We don't have to talk about Serena, but like that really annoyed me because it made such a big deal.
00:16:17.120 --> 00:16:20.320
I was emotional about your retiring, and you're like, just kidding.
00:16:20.480 --> 00:16:20.960
I'm back.
00:16:21.200 --> 00:16:24.879
And now we gotta go through it again when you really re please, please don't piss me off.
00:16:25.039 --> 00:16:25.360
Okay.
00:16:25.759 --> 00:16:26.080
Okay.
00:16:26.399 --> 00:16:28.080
Anyway, let's talk about NICA.
00:16:28.240 --> 00:16:29.759
Yeah, you talk about NECA.
00:16:30.000 --> 00:16:32.879
NECA! NECA's 36, my age.
00:16:33.279 --> 00:16:34.080
Madame President.
00:16:34.399 --> 00:16:35.679
Yeah, Madame Prez.
00:16:36.000 --> 00:16:45.360
Um, she's spent 15 seasons in the W, 13 with the Sparks, and then just two with the set Seattle Storm before returning back to LA.
00:16:46.559 --> 00:16:55.360
She's a WNBA champion, she's been MVP, and of course, she's Madam President of the WNBP.
00:16:55.840 --> 00:16:56.480
Wait, what is it?
00:16:56.639 --> 00:16:57.120
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
00:16:57.360 --> 00:16:58.080
You were you had it.
00:16:58.559 --> 00:16:59.440
M B P A.
00:16:59.840 --> 00:17:00.080
Yeah.
00:17:00.799 --> 00:17:02.240
She's also number one pick.
00:17:02.399 --> 00:17:03.440
Where'd she go to school?
00:17:03.759 --> 00:17:04.559
Stanford?
00:17:05.200 --> 00:17:05.920
Did she?
00:17:06.240 --> 00:17:07.680
I think she might have gone to Stanford.
00:17:07.839 --> 00:17:09.359
Definitely a computer school.
00:17:09.680 --> 00:17:10.960
Computer or Stanford.
00:17:11.279 --> 00:17:11.920
Stanford.
00:17:12.079 --> 00:17:12.720
Stanford.
00:17:13.039 --> 00:17:13.599
Stanford.
00:17:13.839 --> 00:17:14.799
She went to Stanford.
00:17:15.039 --> 00:17:17.519
And she's from Nigeria, right?
00:17:17.680 --> 00:17:17.920
No.
00:17:18.240 --> 00:17:18.960
But Texas.
00:17:19.200 --> 00:17:20.000
Oh Houston.
00:17:20.319 --> 00:17:20.799
Houston, Texas.
00:17:20.960 --> 00:17:21.119
Houston.
00:17:21.279 --> 00:17:21.680
Hurston.
00:17:22.880 --> 00:17:23.599
She's from Hurston.
00:17:23.759 --> 00:17:24.559
Houston, Texas.
00:17:25.759 --> 00:17:26.640
Houston, Texas.
00:17:26.880 --> 00:17:35.200
I did see her on a clip of her on Sue Birds podcast, and she was like, I've been to Austin, and she was like, Of course you have.
00:17:35.440 --> 00:17:36.880
Like, eye roll.
00:17:37.839 --> 00:17:39.839
Because I mean who else is from Houston?
00:17:41.519 --> 00:17:42.720
Okay, I was like, thank God.
00:17:43.519 --> 00:17:45.119
You know who else?
00:17:45.599 --> 00:17:46.880
You know who else is from Houston?
00:17:47.039 --> 00:17:48.000
Kelly Roland.
00:17:48.480 --> 00:17:49.039
Her two.
00:17:49.759 --> 00:17:50.400
Her two.
00:17:50.799 --> 00:17:51.920
Not Destiny's child.
00:17:52.000 --> 00:17:53.599
No affiliation to Destiny's child.
00:17:53.680 --> 00:17:55.200
Who else is from Houston?
00:17:55.599 --> 00:17:55.920
Um.
00:17:57.200 --> 00:17:58.319
Hillary Duff.
00:17:58.480 --> 00:17:59.119
Oh shit, yeah.
00:17:59.599 --> 00:18:00.240
I didn't know that.
00:18:00.480 --> 00:18:02.480
Eliza's even wearing her on the shirt.
00:18:02.640 --> 00:18:03.599
Because when you were in Houston.
00:18:03.759 --> 00:18:06.160
I thought you were saying Bunny, because and I'm like, she's from Dallas.
00:18:06.319 --> 00:18:07.680
Yeah, I was born in Dallas.
00:18:08.079 --> 00:18:09.279
She's a Texanite.
00:18:09.680 --> 00:18:11.200
I only lived there for three years.
00:18:11.359 --> 00:18:13.440
And then I lived there for a few years in my choice.
00:18:14.319 --> 00:18:14.559
I know.
00:18:14.640 --> 00:18:16.160
Let me not have to talk about it.
00:18:16.480 --> 00:18:18.240
I feel like I'm malfunctioning.
00:18:18.400 --> 00:18:19.839
That's crazy.
00:18:20.319 --> 00:18:21.200
It wasn't my choice.
00:18:22.240 --> 00:18:24.559
And you didn't take anything from Dallas with you, so that's okay.
00:18:24.720 --> 00:18:25.200
No, no, no.
00:18:25.359 --> 00:18:26.480
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
00:18:26.799 --> 00:18:29.039
God, that would be worse than the Chiefs.
00:18:29.359 --> 00:18:30.799
I'm gonna be honest with you.
00:18:30.880 --> 00:18:32.880
That would be really fucking bad.
00:18:33.119 --> 00:18:33.599
Anyway.
00:18:33.839 --> 00:18:35.039
Anyway, we're moving on from that.
00:18:35.200 --> 00:18:36.799
Anyway, yeah, NECA, Madam President.
00:18:36.960 --> 00:18:37.519
Madam President.
00:18:37.680 --> 00:18:38.640
She got us some money.
00:18:38.799 --> 00:18:45.039
Yeah, I mean, everyone who says, oh, Caitlin Clark's the reason why the girls are getting paid.
00:18:45.200 --> 00:18:45.440
No.
00:18:45.519 --> 00:18:46.000
No, they're not.
00:18:46.079 --> 00:18:46.640
No, she's not.
00:18:46.720 --> 00:18:47.039
She's not.
00:18:47.119 --> 00:18:47.519
Computa.
00:18:47.680 --> 00:18:48.240
NECA is.
00:18:48.480 --> 00:18:48.640
Sorry.
00:18:48.880 --> 00:18:49.519
Computa.
00:18:50.079 --> 00:18:50.960
It's NECA.
00:18:51.440 --> 00:18:52.480
It is NECA.
00:18:52.880 --> 00:18:53.680
She's that girl.
00:18:53.759 --> 00:18:56.319
Also, I just feel like not for nothing.
00:18:56.400 --> 00:19:05.519
I do wonder if like Chinae, her younger sister, I guess like I assumed that NECA was younger because she was still playing.
00:19:06.640 --> 00:19:07.359
What a flex.
00:19:07.599 --> 00:19:08.079
What a flex.
00:19:08.720 --> 00:19:09.839
The older sister's still playing.
00:19:10.000 --> 00:19:10.640
Little little sister.
00:19:10.960 --> 00:19:12.240
I wonder why bumped her.
00:19:13.039 --> 00:19:16.640
I wonder if it was like injury reasons or you know, or whatever the case.
00:19:17.200 --> 00:19:23.920
And also like NECA is at like an elite tier of you know Hooper.
00:19:24.000 --> 00:19:29.039
Not that, not that Chine isn't good or wasn't good, but like NECA is like on a different to be honest.
00:19:29.119 --> 00:19:31.039
I don't know China's game at all.
00:19:31.359 --> 00:19:31.920
Yeah, I know.
00:19:32.000 --> 00:19:34.000
It's like it's kind of like Venus and Serena.
00:19:34.160 --> 00:19:34.720
Yeah.
00:19:34.960 --> 00:19:41.839
Like Venus is still good, but Serena is like, yeah, it she's a different level, a different tier.
00:19:42.000 --> 00:19:43.680
And also I feel like same thing.
00:19:43.759 --> 00:19:45.440
Like Serena retired, Venus.
00:19:45.519 --> 00:19:49.839
Well, like, because Venus still plays mostly doubles, but she still plays.
00:19:49.920 --> 00:19:52.160
I don't know if she's like officially retired anyway.
00:19:52.880 --> 00:19:53.119
Yeah.
00:19:53.279 --> 00:19:53.920
So injuries.
00:19:55.200 --> 00:19:56.240
I love her as a collector.
00:19:56.559 --> 00:19:58.240
Yeah, because she knows what the fuck she's talking about.
00:19:58.400 --> 00:20:01.440
I think players make the best color commentators too.
00:20:01.519 --> 00:20:06.000
Like, it's the same way that I think it's ridiculous that Stephen A.
00:20:06.240 --> 00:20:12.400
Smith has a show where he gets to talk about sports that he never played and was never good at, but then JJ Reddick will go.
00:20:12.640 --> 00:20:14.559
This was before he was coaching for the Lakers.
00:20:14.640 --> 00:20:21.440
He like went and had done a couple guest spots on first take, and it's just like so like he knows what the fuck he's talking about.
00:20:21.599 --> 00:20:23.200
The media don't know what they're talking about.
00:20:23.440 --> 00:20:23.759
Yeah.
00:20:23.920 --> 00:20:25.039
Like it's crazy.
00:20:25.200 --> 00:20:26.559
Are we the media?
00:20:27.119 --> 00:20:27.440
Yeah.
00:20:27.599 --> 00:20:27.920
Shit.
00:20:28.240 --> 00:20:29.039
We guys also play.
00:20:29.200 --> 00:20:30.000
Yeah, but we also play.
00:20:30.240 --> 00:20:30.880
We also play.
00:20:31.200 --> 00:20:31.920
Thanks, Brenda.
00:20:32.079 --> 00:20:33.039
Thanks, computer.
00:20:33.839 --> 00:20:35.440
Yeah, it's not professionally.
00:20:35.519 --> 00:20:35.759
Yeah.
00:20:35.920 --> 00:20:36.960
Not but we still play.
00:20:37.119 --> 00:20:38.079
Like we actually play the game.
00:20:38.160 --> 00:20:38.559
Stephen A.
00:20:38.640 --> 00:20:39.839
Smith is not in the rec centers.
00:20:40.000 --> 00:20:40.319
Yeah, no.
00:20:40.720 --> 00:20:41.039
Stephen A.
00:20:41.119 --> 00:20:42.000
Smith is nowhere near.
00:20:42.400 --> 00:20:45.920
But yeah, I mean, what a what a storied career for NECA.
00:20:46.079 --> 00:20:51.279
Actually, we'll talk about like playoffs a little bit more later, but the Sparks were also just eliminated.
00:20:51.680 --> 00:21:00.960
That makes me sad because I feel like I wanted her to go out with like, you know, a bigger like she had just come back to the Sparks this season.
00:21:02.559 --> 00:21:04.079
And they they kind of still get it.
00:21:04.319 --> 00:21:06.559
I just don't understand what happened with Kelsey either.
00:21:06.960 --> 00:21:12.000
I I also wondered that I thought it was very curious that they would trade her.
00:21:12.319 --> 00:21:21.440
Um and somehow, like, it also feels like at the same time that Kelsey Plum has almost always been a Mercury.
00:21:21.519 --> 00:21:22.079
I don't know why.
00:21:22.160 --> 00:21:27.680
I know that feels that's like strange to say, but I feel like seeing her in the uniform, I'm like, oh, she's played there forever.
00:21:27.839 --> 00:21:28.079
Really?
00:21:28.240 --> 00:21:30.400
Like, I don't know, like she's supposed to be there or something.
00:21:30.480 --> 00:21:31.039
I don't know.
00:21:31.279 --> 00:21:31.759
I don't know.
00:21:32.079 --> 00:21:33.200
They needed her.
00:21:33.440 --> 00:21:35.200
Is she playing right now or is she injured?
00:21:35.359 --> 00:21:38.960
I think she's been playing on and off um limited minutes because of her injury.
00:21:39.039 --> 00:21:39.680
But like, I don't know.
00:21:39.759 --> 00:21:41.680
I guess the the sparks are really surprising.
00:21:41.759 --> 00:21:47.200
It feels like they blew shit up for no reason because, like, why would you trade Rakia Jackson to Chicago?
00:21:47.359 --> 00:21:47.519
Right.
00:21:48.079 --> 00:21:52.960
Like every every game, I feel like she was getting better, and then she started out the season with a bang.
00:21:53.039 --> 00:21:59.359
Unfortunate, she tore her ACL, but like that, she's a solid player, can't bring coming back from injury.
00:22:00.400 --> 00:22:01.200
Uh Azare.
00:22:01.839 --> 00:22:02.319
I don't know.
00:22:02.400 --> 00:22:04.720
I thought like I was looking forward to seeing them.
00:22:04.960 --> 00:22:06.480
Well, Azare is now in Chicago too.
00:22:06.640 --> 00:22:07.680
No, I know, but that's why they treat.
00:22:07.920 --> 00:22:08.319
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
00:22:08.720 --> 00:22:10.319
But like they had a solid squad.
00:22:10.640 --> 00:22:10.960
I know.
00:22:11.039 --> 00:22:11.359
I don't know.
00:22:11.680 --> 00:22:13.039
Derrick, Ray Braille.
00:22:13.920 --> 00:22:16.160
Yeah, I I it that didn't make a lot of sense.
00:22:16.400 --> 00:22:16.559
No.
00:22:16.799 --> 00:22:18.079
Like what happened there?
00:22:18.400 --> 00:22:18.799
I don't know.
00:22:18.880 --> 00:22:20.720
I have questions about Lynn Roberts.
00:22:21.200 --> 00:22:21.839
Same.
00:22:22.240 --> 00:22:23.279
So I don't know.
00:22:23.359 --> 00:22:26.400
But we essentially had higher hopes for the Sparks.
00:22:26.480 --> 00:22:28.559
And maybe NECA did too.
00:22:28.720 --> 00:22:31.759
But something tells me she went back knowing that she was gonna retire.
00:22:31.920 --> 00:22:32.319
Yeah.
00:22:32.480 --> 00:22:34.799
Like she was never gonna go to Minnesota.
00:22:34.960 --> 00:22:38.240
She was always gonna go back to LA to end her career there.
00:22:38.480 --> 00:22:44.960
I could see her transitioning into like uh some a position at the league or in the league.
00:22:45.200 --> 00:22:45.359
Yeah.
00:22:45.519 --> 00:22:46.480
Within Commission.
00:22:46.799 --> 00:22:48.480
I was gonna say maybe she takes Kathy's spot.
00:22:48.880 --> 00:22:49.119
Please.
00:22:49.359 --> 00:22:49.920
Commission?
00:22:50.240 --> 00:22:50.880
If she wants it.
00:22:51.119 --> 00:22:52.240
Because who knows if she does.
00:22:52.799 --> 00:22:53.599
She'd be good at it.
00:22:53.759 --> 00:23:04.240
I mean she's obviously good at negotiating and dealing with a bunch of and it would probably be helpful to have a player in that position, but who knows if Adam Silver would ever allow it.
00:23:04.640 --> 00:23:06.079
Because he's a fucking hater.
00:23:06.640 --> 00:23:07.440
He needs to go too.
00:23:07.519 --> 00:23:07.680
Yeah.
00:23:08.160 --> 00:23:09.200
He looks like Nazareth.
00:23:12.079 --> 00:23:12.400
Okay.
00:23:13.440 --> 00:23:18.000
So another notable update AZ Fudd is out for the season.
00:23:18.160 --> 00:23:25.599
She had some right knee soreness that ended up leading to an anthroscopic knee surgery that essentially is taking her out for the rest of the season.
00:23:25.839 --> 00:23:28.400
So what does this mean for her in the offseason?
00:23:28.640 --> 00:23:33.279
She posted kind of like this hey, like I'm sure everyone saw at this point.
00:23:33.440 --> 00:23:38.400
Like she's not a she's not a stranger to injury and like the recovery and stuff.
00:23:38.880 --> 00:23:42.640
So I do feel like she'll come back stronger, but that's kind of shitty.
00:23:43.200 --> 00:23:43.759
Very shitty.
00:23:44.240 --> 00:23:48.160
Also, I thought anthroscopic was supposed to be like, right?
00:23:48.400 --> 00:23:48.640
Yeah.
00:23:49.440 --> 00:23:52.640
So I'm like, what was why is it season ending?
00:23:52.960 --> 00:23:53.359
I don't know.
00:23:55.680 --> 00:23:55.839
Yeah.
00:23:56.000 --> 00:24:00.880
Like I wonder if that's the same like leg that she tore her ACL in.
00:24:00.960 --> 00:24:01.440
Yeah, maybe.
00:24:02.079 --> 00:24:07.680
I mean, I don't I don't know for sure, but I think that I mean, I think I already felt this way.
00:24:07.839 --> 00:24:15.519
I I always thought Live Miles was gonna run away with rookie of the year, but yeah, now it's for sure because I feel like they can't even push that narrative anymore.
00:24:15.680 --> 00:24:15.920
Right.
00:24:16.079 --> 00:24:22.160
Of like Liv versus AZ, because even though I I feel like it wasn't really legit.
00:24:22.319 --> 00:24:22.640
Yeah.
00:24:22.880 --> 00:24:25.200
Like, but now there's no who's competing?
00:24:25.359 --> 00:24:27.039
Like who who's gonna come second?
00:24:27.200 --> 00:24:28.160
I guess AZ.
00:24:28.640 --> 00:24:30.960
Like no, you know who could come second?
00:24:31.200 --> 00:24:32.480
Sydney Taylor.
00:24:32.720 --> 00:24:33.759
Oh shit.
00:24:33.920 --> 00:24:34.720
That's true.
00:24:34.880 --> 00:24:37.039
Cause she's having Oh, Pauline.
00:24:37.200 --> 00:24:37.920
Or Pauline.
00:24:38.400 --> 00:24:41.839
Pauline has also been doing yeah, she's also been doing really well.
00:24:42.079 --> 00:24:45.839
And I really like what I've been seeing from Flaget, but I don't know.
00:24:46.000 --> 00:24:48.799
I'm like, who else is like a notable rookie?
00:24:49.440 --> 00:24:50.079
That's a good question.
00:24:50.720 --> 00:24:51.680
Johnson injured?
00:24:51.839 --> 00:24:52.079
Yeah.
00:24:52.240 --> 00:24:53.200
Where was she yesterday?
00:24:53.440 --> 00:24:55.200
She was on the bench and she was suited up.
00:24:55.279 --> 00:24:55.359
Yeah.
00:24:56.319 --> 00:24:57.359
They should have put her in.
00:24:57.519 --> 00:24:59.759
Yeah, because I know she would have boxed out, but it's fine.
00:24:59.839 --> 00:25:00.480
We'll get there later.
00:25:00.559 --> 00:25:01.359
We'll get there later.
00:25:01.680 --> 00:25:04.720
No, no extra airtime on the Confederacy right now.
00:25:05.200 --> 00:25:08.160
Um yeah, there's there's a special special moment for that.
00:25:08.319 --> 00:25:09.359
Yeah, so I don't know.
00:25:09.519 --> 00:25:12.079
I I think Olivia is running away with it.
00:25:13.359 --> 00:25:16.480
Do we think she's gonna get ROI and MVP?
00:25:17.279 --> 00:25:21.119
I think I don't know.
00:25:21.440 --> 00:25:24.000
Because overall, Asia is still true.
00:25:24.640 --> 00:25:26.880
I mean, she's fucking Asia Wilson.
00:25:27.119 --> 00:25:37.359
If now, if Asia wasn't in the league, if Asia was not a factor, like I would probably say yes.
00:25:37.839 --> 00:25:38.880
I don't know.
00:25:39.119 --> 00:25:40.160
I don't know though.
00:25:40.319 --> 00:25:45.119
I if Asia got it this year, that would be five times in a row.
00:25:45.599 --> 00:25:51.680
I just like it's just so unfortunate, I feel like, for people to be playing at the same time as her, and she's not even in her prime.
00:25:51.920 --> 00:25:54.960
I know she's only she just turned 30, or she's not even 30.
00:25:55.200 --> 00:25:56.720
I think she maybe is 29.
00:25:56.960 --> 00:25:59.680
Like to think about how NECA's retiring at 36.
00:25:59.759 --> 00:26:02.480
Like, we've got at least seven more years.
00:26:02.960 --> 00:26:05.359
At least, like, so I don't know.
00:26:05.680 --> 00:26:07.920
I think Liv will be a close second.
00:26:08.160 --> 00:26:14.480
Um Kelsey Mitchell, I think, is also like a god tier kind of player.
00:26:14.640 --> 00:26:19.279
Like, she's like, there's not there's not many players, in my opinion, in the league that are god tier.
00:26:19.440 --> 00:26:27.119
There's like for me, god tier, elite, good, and then you know, you've got the lower ranks there.
00:26:27.200 --> 00:26:32.400
But if if I was gonna rank elite elite talent, I would say Asia for sure.
00:26:32.720 --> 00:26:35.759
I would even say point god, yeah, elite.
00:26:35.920 --> 00:26:40.640
Um, and I would I would also put Olivia Miles in that category.
00:26:40.799 --> 00:26:45.839
Like she's it's like she came in like this was another college season, which is insane.
00:26:45.920 --> 00:26:58.079
And she did that, and I understand like she has like Courtney Williams, Kayla McBride, and and other other vets around her, but like for her to be doing what she's doing without fee, I don't know.
00:26:58.319 --> 00:27:02.079
It's fee and now with fee, yeah.
00:27:02.799 --> 00:27:04.240
I mean, she's really fucking good.
00:27:04.400 --> 00:27:05.519
Yeah, that's what I mean.
00:27:05.680 --> 00:27:06.640
So I don't know.
00:27:06.720 --> 00:27:10.720
I'm not saying it's impossible for her to get rookie of the year and MVP.
00:27:10.799 --> 00:27:12.319
The last time that happened was Candace Parker.
00:27:12.480 --> 00:27:16.240
I know, which is crazy because it was like, I don't know, like oh three or something.
00:27:16.480 --> 00:27:19.039
Wow, it was something crazy, yeah.
00:27:19.359 --> 00:27:22.799
But again, let's not give any more time to the Confederacy.
00:27:22.960 --> 00:27:25.279
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
00:27:25.839 --> 00:27:26.160
Okay.
00:27:26.720 --> 00:27:35.119
So also in uh in other news, the Tempo unveiled new mascots, a sturdle, and a bunny.
00:27:36.240 --> 00:27:41.359
You know, it's like that that auntie who has a friend that comes over for every holiday.
00:27:42.079 --> 00:27:42.640
Us.
00:27:42.960 --> 00:27:43.359
Yeah.
00:27:43.839 --> 00:27:46.319
Well, no, not us, because we're a different generation.
00:27:46.400 --> 00:27:47.519
Like, we'll be like, this is my partner.
00:27:47.920 --> 00:27:51.599
Wait, did you know the the stertle their pronouns?
00:27:51.759 --> 00:27:52.960
Yeah, they're non-binary.
00:27:53.200 --> 00:27:54.240
She she she they.
00:27:54.640 --> 00:27:55.359
Oh my god.
00:27:55.519 --> 00:27:56.400
That's so cute.
00:27:56.559 --> 00:27:57.200
I love that.
00:27:57.440 --> 00:28:06.640
It people have been saying that the the turtle looks like uh like the uh ch the twins' mom, Lil and Phil from the Rugrats.
00:28:07.119 --> 00:28:13.200
Wait, like exactly the headband, the hair, yeah, the little smirky hair for sure.
00:28:13.680 --> 00:28:15.599
Yeah, just incredible.
00:28:15.839 --> 00:28:25.680
Also relevant to oh, they also unveiled these mascots the same night that the fever were in town, which is good, yeah, really funny.
00:28:26.000 --> 00:28:32.160
Also, Sandy's team is not making the playoffs for the first time in her head coaching career.
00:28:32.480 --> 00:28:40.559
It's really sad, which is crazy because notably she did make the playoffs last season with the New York Liberty when they had a piece of lint and a and a penny.
00:28:40.880 --> 00:28:41.440
You know what?
00:28:41.519 --> 00:28:51.279
Yeah, it makes me s like even more mad that Jonathan Cole fired her because think about where we would be right now.
00:28:51.440 --> 00:28:55.599
I feel like we'd be higher on the We'd probably be a little higher.
00:28:55.680 --> 00:28:56.799
We probably wouldn't have signed Satu.
00:28:57.519 --> 00:28:59.279
We wouldn't have had Satu.
00:28:59.680 --> 00:29:00.400
Oops.
00:29:00.799 --> 00:29:01.519
That was mistake.
00:29:01.680 --> 00:29:07.119
And we probably would have developed Annalee Maley into 100% a solid player because you know the Aussie connection there.
00:29:07.279 --> 00:29:07.599
Yeah.
00:29:07.839 --> 00:29:08.559
And you know what?
00:29:08.640 --> 00:29:11.039
We probably would have drafted Alana Smith.
00:29:12.559 --> 00:29:13.839
I think Elk and Dream.
00:29:14.079 --> 00:29:15.119
Oh my god.
00:29:15.599 --> 00:29:19.039
It pisses me off because I'm like, Alana Smith is not happy.
00:29:19.200 --> 00:29:20.960
She's not happy and she's not happy.
00:29:21.359 --> 00:29:22.240
She should be with us.
00:29:22.720 --> 00:29:23.440
She should be with us.
00:29:23.920 --> 00:29:27.279
And Sandy wouldn't have had this happen to her career if she had stayed.
00:29:28.079 --> 00:29:29.200
She'd be in the playoffs.
00:29:29.519 --> 00:29:30.400
I think so.
00:29:30.880 --> 00:29:31.920
That's all I'm saying.
00:29:32.319 --> 00:29:33.039
I think so.
00:29:33.200 --> 00:29:37.519
Which we can talk about the teams that have clinched playoffs thus far.
00:29:38.079 --> 00:29:38.640
Let's do that.
00:29:38.799 --> 00:29:43.759
And unfortunately, we haven't clinched yet as the Liberty, but I fear that we will.
00:29:44.000 --> 00:29:54.559
And I I just I don't know, maybe things will be different because you know Leo's back, but we and again we can talk about this more later.
00:29:54.640 --> 00:29:58.079
I just like I think the Liberty may need a full reset, but who knows?
00:29:58.160 --> 00:30:01.599
Maybe maybe my opinion's different after the fever game.
00:30:02.079 --> 00:30:05.440
I know that we moved up to sixth in the rankings.
00:30:05.680 --> 00:30:08.480
We were at eight or nine, so like we do have a lot of.
00:30:08.640 --> 00:30:10.400
I think we're gonna make it, I guess.
00:30:10.559 --> 00:30:16.240
Um, but the teams that have clinched Vegas, Minnesota, duh, duh.
00:30:16.400 --> 00:30:19.440
Golden State, notably, has clinched like butt cheeks.
00:30:19.599 --> 00:30:20.480
Yeah, duh.
00:30:20.880 --> 00:30:24.720
And then Indiana, and then Atlanta clinched last night.
00:30:24.799 --> 00:30:30.799
I think what's really fun about Atlanta is like it just really feels like a sisterhood.
00:30:30.880 --> 00:30:31.680
Like, I don't know.
00:30:31.839 --> 00:30:34.960
I we've said it before, but I do feel like that was the right move for Angel.
00:30:35.200 --> 00:30:35.359
Agree.
00:30:35.599 --> 00:30:38.000
I feel like that is exactly where she needs to be.
00:30:38.079 --> 00:30:43.920
And for the first time in her WNBA career, she is headed to the playoffs, which is very exciting.
00:30:44.160 --> 00:30:55.039
And you can just tell how tight-knit that group is because they're so hard on themselves, and usually it's like their teammates picking up, you know, the person who's feeling down.
00:30:55.119 --> 00:31:07.359
Like I know both Ryan and Angel felt really shitty about missing a couple of baskets uh to win their game against Indiana, and ever since then, Angel has really been on a tear.
00:31:07.839 --> 00:31:14.559
She's just scored 31 points, I'm pretty sure last night to clinch like she had a double double, a damn near triple double.
00:31:14.720 --> 00:31:17.279
Like, she's playing possessed right now.
00:31:17.680 --> 00:31:18.160
I'm glad.
00:31:18.799 --> 00:31:19.599
Yeah, I don't know.
00:31:19.839 --> 00:31:22.559
I feel like she's in a much better place also mentally.
00:31:22.960 --> 00:31:23.839
So I love that for her.
00:31:24.559 --> 00:31:25.759
I love that for her too.
00:31:26.799 --> 00:31:31.279
Then we have unfortunately more dildos.
00:31:31.680 --> 00:31:32.559
I saw that.
00:31:32.960 --> 00:31:33.920
What is going on?
00:31:34.240 --> 00:31:36.240
Why are why are they all why?
00:31:36.960 --> 00:31:37.839
Just tell me why.
00:31:38.400 --> 00:31:44.720
Yeah, I mean, the Chicago Skies home game against the Valkyries was interrupted in the third quarter on Friday.
00:31:44.880 --> 00:31:45.759
There were multiple sections.
00:31:46.319 --> 00:31:46.799
Multiple?
00:31:47.119 --> 00:31:47.599
Multiple.
00:31:47.759 --> 00:31:49.200
I think there were three total.
00:31:49.440 --> 00:31:50.400
Oh my god.
00:31:50.559 --> 00:31:51.119
Yeah.
00:31:51.440 --> 00:31:55.920
And it was actually like kind of fucking crazy.
00:31:56.000 --> 00:31:58.319
Like, how did how were they getting these in?
00:31:58.640 --> 00:32:00.000
Yeah, where are they putting them?
00:32:00.160 --> 00:32:02.720
Are they wearing like wearing them in their underwear?
00:32:03.039 --> 00:32:07.519
Like, I okay, let me just say last season.
00:32:07.839 --> 00:32:09.519
Or I remember it was happening.
00:32:09.839 --> 00:32:20.720
I was thinking in the front, but I was thinking also in the back, too, because uh and you know I'm not a huge fan of Natasha Cloud, but she was just like, you know, it's almost always a man.
00:32:20.880 --> 00:32:21.119
Yeah.
00:32:21.279 --> 00:32:24.000
And that's probably like one of the gayest things you can do.
00:32:24.079 --> 00:32:33.119
And it sounds like you have some things to work through because, first of all, how gay you gotta be to go into a fucking sex shop as a man.
00:32:33.359 --> 00:32:34.720
Also, dildos are expensive.
00:32:34.880 --> 00:32:35.039
Yeah.
00:32:35.200 --> 00:32:44.400
To buy a dildo, to transport it like to a to a basketball game where women are playing, and then you gotta smuggle it inside.
00:32:44.480 --> 00:32:45.920
It has to be up your ass.
00:32:46.079 --> 00:32:46.480
Yeah.
00:32:46.720 --> 00:32:47.279
Gay.
00:32:47.599 --> 00:32:51.599
Gay and and then you throw and then you throw it on the court?
00:32:51.839 --> 00:32:53.920
Like, what's what is going on?
00:32:54.400 --> 00:32:56.079
Like what is like what is the reason?
00:32:56.240 --> 00:32:56.960
What is the reason?
00:32:57.200 --> 00:32:58.880
Go to therapy instead.
00:32:59.119 --> 00:33:00.720
It is so weird.
00:33:00.880 --> 00:33:01.440
It's weird.
00:33:01.599 --> 00:33:02.079
It's really weird.
00:33:02.240 --> 00:33:03.279
Like, I don't even understand it.
00:33:03.359 --> 00:33:04.880
Like, what statement are you trying to make?
00:33:05.119 --> 00:33:08.960
Yeah, and if you're just trying to get attention, what is the reason?
00:33:09.119 --> 00:33:19.519
Yeah, I mean, and it happened um in Atlanta's game against the Sparks last week too, and Angel actually actually pointed out where I'm glad she saw.
00:33:19.680 --> 00:33:28.480
Yeah, someone says they've turned her into a meme, and they're just like me as a child pointing to where Dora lost her thing, and we're like, right here, right here.
00:33:29.599 --> 00:33:30.400
So I don't know.
00:33:30.720 --> 00:33:33.599
She's a girl's girl, and she's just yeah, yeah.
00:33:33.680 --> 00:33:35.039
That's yeah, she really is.
00:33:35.119 --> 00:33:36.960
Like also, yeah, it's dangerous.
00:33:37.119 --> 00:33:39.279
If that hits you in the head, you're concussed.
00:33:39.440 --> 00:33:41.279
And you know what I mean?
00:33:41.440 --> 00:33:42.319
What kind of dildo?
00:33:42.480 --> 00:33:46.400
What kind of like like lead dildos being they're heavy?
00:33:47.359 --> 00:33:51.759
I know, but like what do you mean, concuss?
00:33:52.160 --> 00:33:54.000
Drawn from the nose blade, right?
00:33:54.720 --> 00:33:56.319
Gravity is also exactly.
00:33:56.400 --> 00:34:05.359
You know how they say, like, if you drop a girl who cried concussed, concussed! But you know how they say if you drop a penny from the Empire State Building, you could kill somebody?
00:34:05.599 --> 00:34:06.319
Do they say that?
00:34:06.480 --> 00:34:09.280
Yeah, speed, the like the velocity.
00:34:09.599 --> 00:34:15.920
Yeah, holy shit! Yeah, oh my god, Bonnie, you didn't be knowing things! What is going on?
00:34:16.159 --> 00:34:19.679
So imagine a dildo coming from the 200s.
00:34:19.840 --> 00:34:21.280
Picture this a dildo.
00:34:22.079 --> 00:34:42.880
I guess my only uh and I didn't take physics in high school, I didn't have to somehow, but I guess when I think about it, like a penny flat, yeah, gaining speed, smooth, smooth, you know, exterior, dildo wagging in the air, you know what I mean?
00:34:42.960 --> 00:34:44.880
Like so how speed can it, yeah.
00:34:45.280 --> 00:34:50.079
If you throw it like a dot, yeah, if you throw it like a dot, it still has weight to it.
00:34:50.719 --> 00:34:55.280
I know, no, I know it has weight to it, but like, do we know what kind of dildos they were?
00:34:55.360 --> 00:34:58.079
Because they look like they were lime green with balls.
00:34:58.400 --> 00:35:06.000
And so, like, for me, then how you can't really throw that as a as a dart because then the back of it is just like a boomerang.
00:35:06.079 --> 00:35:18.960
It's like uh, I feel like it's like gaining speed because the weight of the back is like since we're not need a professional physicist to physicist to come explain how that works.
00:35:19.199 --> 00:35:29.280
Um, because for those not watching, I'm describing the movement as kind of like the inflatable, you know, the inflatable things that like car dealerships where it's just like in the wind.
00:35:29.360 --> 00:35:32.239
That's like, how is it gaining that speed?
00:35:32.480 --> 00:35:32.960
You know?
00:35:33.119 --> 00:35:39.599
Um, but imagine even if you weren't concussed, just getting smacked by one of those things, like flying out of the air.
00:35:39.679 --> 00:35:41.760
I mean I mean, you're definitely getting a bruise.
00:35:41.840 --> 00:35:43.360
You're definitely getting a bruise.
00:35:43.599 --> 00:35:48.800
Imagine like on your ego and your butt- your the tippy top of it gets you in the eye.
00:35:48.960 --> 00:35:51.760
Like, literally, no, I mean it is dangerous, in fact.
00:35:51.920 --> 00:35:54.559
I mean, we're not debating whether or not it's dangerous.
00:35:56.480 --> 00:36:02.000
Don't in the front! No without naming all the bottoms from a dildo getting hit.
00:36:02.239 --> 00:36:05.039
Like, don't let Jade Melvin get hit with a dildo in the mouth.
00:36:07.039 --> 00:36:08.559
She loses a tooth every other game.
00:36:10.000 --> 00:36:11.280
I'm dead.
00:36:11.440 --> 00:36:12.800
That's crazy.
00:36:13.039 --> 00:36:14.719
No one's gotten hit though.
00:36:15.039 --> 00:36:17.280
But you know, I think people have been it's like landed.
00:36:17.360 --> 00:36:20.079
Didn't it land right in front of um someone shooting free throws?
00:36:20.159 --> 00:36:20.559
Who was it?
00:36:20.639 --> 00:36:22.000
I no, I think it definitely didn't.
00:36:22.400 --> 00:36:22.639
I don't know.
00:36:23.119 --> 00:36:26.639
The article I read said Cameron Brink kicked it away and then someone threw a towel on it.
00:36:26.960 --> 00:36:32.000
Well, I will tell you, the very first time it happened last season, I mean we were in charge of the Brenda was asleep.
00:36:32.559 --> 00:36:35.920
Brenda was asleep on the couch next to me, and it was a late game.
00:36:36.480 --> 00:36:36.960
You were asleep.
00:36:37.280 --> 00:36:38.719
No, I saw it.
00:36:39.679 --> 00:36:45.360
I saw it, you were asleep, but I'm but I only remember because I texted Danny and I said, Hey.
00:36:45.840 --> 00:36:49.760
No, I woke you up because I was rewinding and I was like, was that babe?
00:36:49.840 --> 00:36:51.440
You were literally asleep.
00:36:53.039 --> 00:36:54.719
She was literally asleep.
00:36:54.960 --> 00:37:02.320
She was literally because and I know that because I was adjusting my volume because I was like, babe, and then I looked over and your eyes were shut.
00:37:02.639 --> 00:37:03.199
Yeah.
00:37:03.440 --> 00:37:05.280
That's that's I'm I don't know.
00:37:05.360 --> 00:37:06.559
I kind of believe Brenda.
00:37:06.880 --> 00:37:07.760
I kind of believe Brenda.
00:37:08.639 --> 00:37:09.920
Amanda will do this all the time.
00:37:10.079 --> 00:37:11.360
She'll be like, I was never looking at the table.
00:37:11.519 --> 00:37:13.119
No, you do the thing the smallest thing.
00:37:13.280 --> 00:37:19.599
And I'll be like, no, we literally arrived at this time, and you saw this, and you saw that, and she's like, Oh, it's kind of coming back to me now.
00:37:19.840 --> 00:37:20.880
No, and and guess what?
00:37:20.960 --> 00:37:24.800
You know what that should tell you that this time it's not coming back to me because I was awake.
00:37:25.920 --> 00:37:35.760
Because I remember it was lime green, and then I rewound it because it felt it went under the seat, and the and the commentators were like, I'll just I'll just let you have this one so we can this is what I do.
00:37:35.840 --> 00:37:37.360
I'm like, okay, fine, I'll take the L.
00:37:37.679 --> 00:37:37.840
Right.
00:37:37.920 --> 00:37:39.039
No, I always take the L.
00:37:39.840 --> 00:37:54.000
So we're gonna keep talking about basketball and not about who's who saw it first because it was it was just crazy because I couldn't believe it happened, and then I had to go on social, and I think I went to the sports chat and everybody was like, or no, every I think most people were asleep.
00:37:54.159 --> 00:37:57.519
I think actually only one other person was just like, wait, I saw that.
00:37:57.599 --> 00:37:58.239
Did you see that?
00:37:58.400 --> 00:37:59.519
And I it was crazy.
00:37:59.760 --> 00:38:04.960
Yeah, no, we were in remember we were in Cherry Grove watching live the very first time it happened.
00:38:05.119 --> 00:38:05.920
Oh yeah, yeah, yeah.
00:38:06.480 --> 00:38:07.760
It was like a late game, wasn't it?
00:38:07.920 --> 00:38:08.880
It was like one of the 10 p.m.
00:38:08.960 --> 00:38:09.119
games.
00:38:09.440 --> 00:38:10.159
We were like, what was that?
00:38:10.239 --> 00:38:11.599
And then we're like, whoa.
00:38:12.320 --> 00:38:12.960
Yeah.
00:38:13.360 --> 00:38:19.119
Anyway, yeah, just stop doing it, stop throwing the fucking dildos.
00:38:19.280 --> 00:38:20.960
You can hurt someone in more ways than one.
00:38:21.039 --> 00:38:22.880
You can concuss them, you can get them in the eye.
00:38:23.039 --> 00:38:23.280
Awesome.
00:38:23.440 --> 00:38:24.400
What are you getting out of it?
00:38:24.559 --> 00:38:26.559
Also, like, why do you have it?
00:38:26.800 --> 00:38:29.840
Yeah, what did you bring it from your personal collection?
00:38:30.320 --> 00:38:31.760
Explain yourself.
00:38:32.079 --> 00:38:32.639
Fucking lose.
00:38:33.039 --> 00:38:41.599
And now that person, the one that Angel pointed out, is like banned from W NBA games, banned from NBA games, banned from like the whole arena.
00:38:41.760 --> 00:38:43.440
I'm like, why what was it worth it?
00:38:43.519 --> 00:38:44.960
You don't ever want to see a concert?
00:38:45.280 --> 00:38:48.159
Well, I actually have like a logistical question about that.
00:38:48.400 --> 00:38:51.440
If someone is banned, how are you banned?
00:38:51.519 --> 00:38:52.079
Like, how can you?
00:38:52.239 --> 00:38:53.920
I don't know, is it like a no-flies list?
00:38:54.159 --> 00:38:55.760
Like, but how can you enforce that?
00:38:55.840 --> 00:39:00.320
Because like I could buy a ticket and put it under someone else's name, they're not IDing you at the fucking door.
00:39:00.480 --> 00:39:00.719
I don't know.
00:39:00.800 --> 00:39:03.920
I feel like there's cameras everywhere now and they can see your face and in AI.
00:39:04.159 --> 00:39:12.480
But there's also legal consequences of like maybe if like if they don't catch you at the door, but if they catch you doing something else, that'd be more big conversation.
00:39:12.880 --> 00:39:14.639
Oh, they could probably press more charges.
00:39:20.880 --> 00:39:22.000
Yeah, that's crazy.
00:39:22.800 --> 00:39:30.239
I just like thought about it, and then when I saw that and I was just like, it's just like one time I got banned from Six Flags because you did?
00:39:30.480 --> 00:39:30.880
Yeah.
00:39:31.679 --> 00:39:33.039
Because you threw a dildo right now.
00:39:33.280 --> 00:39:37.920
No, I actually like I was escorted out like through the back, but I was with other people, but it was like something silly.
00:39:38.000 --> 00:39:41.280
Like they accused us of cutting in line, and I literally didn't cut in line.
00:39:41.920 --> 00:39:48.159
And they were like, and they literally escorted me out of Six Flags in New Jersey, and I was just like, I'm sorry, people cut in line all the time.
00:39:48.320 --> 00:39:53.360
No, and I literally was just like, You think I give a fuck about this goofy ass theme park in the middle of New Jersey?
00:39:53.519 --> 00:39:56.480
Like, I literally will not come back here out of my own volition.
00:39:56.960 --> 00:40:01.920
Like, sorry, like literally behind the rides, like with security, we literally escorted us out.
00:40:02.239 --> 00:40:05.039
Yeah, it must have been me and my cousins or something, but it was like kind of ridiculous.
00:40:05.440 --> 00:40:10.079
I would admit if there was wrongdoing, yeah, but I really don't think there was.
00:40:10.159 --> 00:40:11.599
It was so weird, anyway.
00:40:12.000 --> 00:40:13.920
Yeah, stop throwing the fucking dildos.
00:40:14.079 --> 00:40:15.679
Stop throwing the dildos, you guys.
00:40:15.920 --> 00:40:28.880
Yeah, and then maybe next episode we'll have a physicist on to tell us about how the velocity, the the possibility of how hard a dildo can fly.
00:40:29.119 --> 00:40:29.519
Yeah.
00:40:29.840 --> 00:40:32.960
And if you throw it like a floor, how hard a dildo can fly.
00:40:33.519 --> 00:40:36.079
Sounds like one of the most like word problems that you solve.
00:40:36.239 --> 00:40:36.400
Yeah.
00:40:36.639 --> 00:40:42.719
If you had a green dildo this size and this weight, how far would you travel if you throw it on?
00:40:42.880 --> 00:40:44.079
Oh, I'm sick.
00:40:45.119 --> 00:40:46.800
Honestly, that's what we need to know.
00:40:47.119 --> 00:40:49.199
The word problems were the worst ones, weren't they?
00:40:49.360 --> 00:40:52.559
They were they they purposefully confused you.
00:40:52.800 --> 00:40:56.239
And like it was like, honestly, the kids today would not be able to do it.
00:40:56.320 --> 00:40:58.000
They can't even fuck a recursive.
00:40:58.320 --> 00:41:00.079
Like it it it's crazy.
00:41:00.480 --> 00:41:01.360
Won't be ours.
00:41:01.679 --> 00:41:02.400
Oh my gosh.
00:41:02.559 --> 00:41:05.519
Okay, before we before we get into C Foam Spotlight.
00:41:05.679 --> 00:41:06.079
Yeah.
00:41:06.400 --> 00:41:11.199
I think one thing we haven't talked about is how Inez Cantor and uh who?
00:41:11.920 --> 00:41:13.599
He's uh he's an NBA player.
00:41:13.679 --> 00:41:15.840
Oh um, I'm pretty sure he's Israeli.
00:41:16.320 --> 00:41:20.079
Um he announced he hasn't played in the NBA in years.
00:41:20.320 --> 00:41:30.960
He announced that he's joining the WNBA as like uh, well, no men in like women's sports, you know, contributing to the whole anti-trans uh conversation.
00:41:31.199 --> 00:41:35.039
And first of all, like he's a fucking loser.
00:41:35.199 --> 00:41:40.880
I've like so I feel like some people have brought it up to me, like straight men and stuff, and they're like, I'm not gonna lie, that was kind of funny.
00:41:40.960 --> 00:41:41.679
I said, Why?
00:41:41.840 --> 00:41:43.440
I said, ain't shit funny about it?
00:41:43.519 --> 00:41:50.320
I said, what's funny about a grown man stirring up drama and trouble, like just to get attention?
00:41:50.480 --> 00:42:11.599
I said, actually, and for all of the men who are sitting here, like being so worried about being gay, and then attributing like all of these like feminine characteristics that they think are feminine characteristics, as like someone being gay, like by their own definition, then I would say NS Cancer is probably fucking gay, like if I were to use their definition of it, because why are you stirring the pot and being catty?
00:42:12.079 --> 00:42:17.360
It's really weird, and it's also just like are you that bored?
00:42:17.440 --> 00:42:22.320
Do you have really have nothing else going on that you're gonna make up this quote unquote joke?
00:42:23.119 --> 00:42:31.840
It's like yeah, and like it's just like it's literally not funny, it's not funny, and also it's not a real fucking problem.
00:42:32.000 --> 00:42:47.920
Like, I was gonna spend like a 24-second shot clock kind of talking about this, but like the the argument that no trans women belong in women's sports, like as a way to protect women's sports, you don't actually care about women's sports.
00:42:48.000 --> 00:42:51.039
Also, there's not a single trans woman in the WNBA.
00:42:51.199 --> 00:43:00.000
There's also not a single trans woman trying to play in the WMBA, and I bet I could count on two hands how many trans women play in college sports.
00:43:00.239 --> 00:43:07.920
I think I think I saw a statistic out of 500,000 NCAA athletes, there are 12.
00:43:08.159 --> 00:43:16.239
Yeah, like it's it's like a it's a non-argument, like it it's not real, it's not a real problem.
00:43:16.880 --> 00:43:40.400
And like ironically, like Sophie Cunningham, who again like bench player who has notably not performed well, she's just like a fucking loser, she's a nobody, like respectfully, like the couple of shots that she hits a game, she's wide open, and I'm like, Yeah, you probably should hit that.
00:43:40.480 --> 00:43:47.679
You're a professional women's basketball player, like she's not doing anything to like like she's not moving the needle, yeah.
00:43:47.920 --> 00:43:59.760
And so, like, obviously, like she was trying to appeal to one side of the political spectrum and get attention, and like that I feel like what really happened is that then Caitlin Clark.
00:44:00.159 --> 00:44:07.039
Started getting questions about it, and you can't have the star player being put in such a position, and so she started to walk it back.
00:44:07.199 --> 00:44:08.800
Why can't we talk about basketball?
00:44:08.880 --> 00:44:18.239
And so now she's become this joke where people are like, So if we are just talking about basketball, Sophie scored zero points today, right, in the 25 minutes that she played.
00:44:18.480 --> 00:44:58.159
But what irks me so much is that she's speaking to a community who is so like closed-minded, probably doesn't know a single gay person or trans person, like just has such a weird like misconception of who these people are, and the moment you say trans, they're fucking frightened, they're scared of they build up who this person is or what they look like, or you know what their motives are in their own head because they don't know like they've never known anybody in the community, and I and she's preying on that fear, it's just making it worse.
00:44:58.480 --> 00:45:03.519
It's just like I don't know, it's just like so hateful.
00:45:03.920 --> 00:45:21.519
Like it's free to not be hateful, like it really is, and it's like this is I feel like I've been saying this for years, but this is genuine like if I were to really break down like the political parties like all the way down, it's giving Republicans care too much about other people's business.
00:45:22.800 --> 00:45:27.280
Like Democrats are like, do you it's your life?
00:45:27.519 --> 00:45:36.400
It's also like we're all fucking human, like we all deserve the same rights and protection and equality.
00:45:36.559 --> 00:45:37.440
It's just about equality.
00:45:37.760 --> 00:45:49.599
It's just like really strange though, for like someone to be so concerned about what another person who they have who they don't know have no connection to, yeah, is doing with their time, with their bodies in their personal private time.
00:45:49.679 --> 00:45:52.000
Like I and it doesn't affect you at all.
00:45:52.159 --> 00:45:54.079
Like, why are you worried about what I'm doing in a bedroom?
00:45:54.159 --> 00:45:54.960
You're not in there with me.
00:45:55.119 --> 00:45:55.440
Exactly.
00:45:55.599 --> 00:45:56.400
Like, it's weird.
00:45:56.639 --> 00:45:59.119
And I don't worry about what you're what you're doing.
00:45:59.360 --> 00:45:59.599
Right.
00:45:59.679 --> 00:46:03.199
Like, why are you worried about what I got on under exactly under my clothes?
00:46:03.280 --> 00:46:03.920
Like, I don't know.
00:46:04.000 --> 00:46:06.480
It's it's so why do you care about my pronouns?
00:46:06.559 --> 00:46:12.559
Like, it's it's literally the same thing, like the same idea like around abortion, in my opinion.
00:46:12.639 --> 00:46:21.679
It's just like, why are you so pressed about someone who like literally lives around the block three blocks down who you literally have never met and that she decides she wants to get an abortion?
00:46:22.000 --> 00:46:22.639
It's crazy.
00:46:22.800 --> 00:46:25.280
It literally has not a single fucking thing to do with you.
00:46:25.440 --> 00:46:25.920
Not one.
00:46:26.159 --> 00:46:27.679
No, not one.
00:46:28.079 --> 00:46:43.360
It's so uh it's sickening, and it's like there is unfortunately like a group of of people who like they really feel like this is it, like that's how you have to approach these things, and it's really it's really sad.
00:46:43.519 --> 00:46:45.199
Like, I don't know.
00:46:45.440 --> 00:46:48.719
You would think that we would be like more evolved than this, you know what I mean?
00:46:49.280 --> 00:46:53.280
And I feel like we're just moving backwards with the current administration.
00:46:53.760 --> 00:46:55.199
Oh my god, I know.
00:46:55.440 --> 00:46:57.679
I like I cannot wait for it to be over.
00:46:57.760 --> 00:46:58.880
How many years do we have left?
00:46:59.039 --> 00:47:04.960
Two well, it's about to be has it just been one year?
00:47:05.119 --> 00:47:06.880
Yeah, shut the fuck up.
00:47:07.039 --> 00:47:08.480
It's not even been a full year.
00:47:08.639 --> 00:47:10.880
Has it just been one year?
00:47:11.119 --> 00:47:11.360
Yeah.
00:47:11.519 --> 00:47:12.559
Doesn't it feel like ten?
00:47:12.960 --> 00:47:14.000
It hasn't been two?
00:47:14.559 --> 00:47:14.880
No.
00:47:17.199 --> 00:47:19.039
Oh man.
00:47:20.800 --> 00:47:21.920
Why hasn't that been two?
00:47:22.559 --> 00:47:24.320
That's shitty.
00:47:24.480 --> 00:47:25.119
I don't know.
00:47:25.280 --> 00:47:26.480
That's why we all need to vote.
00:47:26.639 --> 00:47:42.880
That's why all this all the midterm elections and like there are I don't know, we don't have to get so political on this pod, but like the there are a lot of um like governors uh governor elections and things like that that are being turned in smaller.
00:47:43.360 --> 00:47:46.000
I'm sorry, I'm so shook that it hasn't even been a year.
00:47:46.320 --> 00:47:46.880
I know.
00:47:47.840 --> 00:47:54.719
I feel like the Democrats are gonna we're gonna win this year or whenever we have we get a chance again.
00:47:55.119 --> 00:47:56.239
God, I hope so.
00:47:56.480 --> 00:47:57.199
We have to.
00:47:57.920 --> 00:47:58.480
Wow.
00:47:58.639 --> 00:47:59.920
Um anyway.
00:48:00.159 --> 00:48:21.119
Yeah, anyway, but yeah, I feel like there's uh some podcaster, I don't know who it was, but he said like if I'm gonna like butcher it, but he said something really beautiful like if you can't give the trans community equality and respect, then at least give them silence.
00:48:21.360 --> 00:48:23.360
Like, why are you even saying anything?
00:48:23.440 --> 00:48:24.239
You know what I mean?
00:48:24.559 --> 00:48:25.840
Yeah, that's a bar.
00:48:26.079 --> 00:48:28.239
Yeah, that is a bar.
00:48:28.880 --> 00:48:29.920
Yeah, wow.
00:48:30.320 --> 00:48:42.559
Well, I'll tell you what, we can turn the tables now and talk about see from spotlight because there are some positives to talk about in regards to basketball, but also in regards to this whole like trans conversation.
00:48:42.880 --> 00:48:44.559
Yeah, let's do it.
00:48:45.119 --> 00:48:46.880
Let's talk see from spotlight.
00:48:47.119 --> 00:48:49.280
Let's talk lots to talk about.
00:48:49.679 --> 00:48:54.480
Should we do a should we do a moment of silence for this first part?
00:48:57.119 --> 00:49:00.639
Okay, a moment of silence for losing.
00:49:01.280 --> 00:49:06.800
I shouldn't say losing, but releasing Nigelaney Hamilton from the New York Liberty roster.
00:49:09.039 --> 00:49:10.800
Eliza, a moment of silence, please.
00:49:10.960 --> 00:49:11.840
No, no typing.
00:49:15.920 --> 00:49:16.239
Okay.
00:49:16.880 --> 00:49:19.440
But literally, I think we're gonna really regret that.
00:49:20.000 --> 00:49:20.880
I hope we already do.
00:49:21.119 --> 00:49:23.119
I mean, I regret it every time.
00:49:24.079 --> 00:49:24.960
I regret it every time.
00:49:25.199 --> 00:49:27.119
I cannot believe it happened still.
00:49:28.079 --> 00:49:30.400
I mean what happened?
00:49:30.559 --> 00:49:33.119
What I need to be in I need to be in the locker room.
00:49:33.440 --> 00:49:34.159
You need to talk to her.
00:49:34.559 --> 00:49:35.440
I would love to talk to her.
00:49:35.599 --> 00:49:36.079
She's your friend.
00:49:36.800 --> 00:49:39.440
She's in DC now with the young hoes.
00:49:39.840 --> 00:49:43.280
An old hoe amongst the young young hoes.
00:49:45.039 --> 00:49:46.159
Because that's crazy.
00:49:46.320 --> 00:49:49.840
Uh but she seems just like so much happier.
00:49:50.400 --> 00:49:52.800
She deserves to be somewhere where she can be happy, to be honest.
00:49:52.880 --> 00:49:54.480
Like she can be appreciated.
00:49:55.360 --> 00:50:00.800
You know, I'm not gonna throw it back to like if Sandy were here, this would have never happened, but I am gonna say that again.
00:50:01.199 --> 00:50:04.400
I don't think it would have happened, transparently, if Sandy was Stork Coach.
00:50:04.559 --> 00:50:06.880
She absolutely would not have been released.
00:50:07.360 --> 00:50:07.679
Nope.
00:50:08.000 --> 00:50:09.679
And you know what pisses me off?
00:50:09.840 --> 00:50:21.119
Like a few pods ago, when we were talking about the potential of Chris DeMarco, and we brought up the time that he gave her the sweatshirt, and we were like, he's a nice guy.
00:50:21.519 --> 00:50:22.800
I'm gonna fuck Chris DeMarco.
00:50:23.039 --> 00:50:23.599
Fuck that shit.
00:50:23.679 --> 00:50:24.559
Yeah, fuck that shit.
00:50:24.719 --> 00:50:26.159
I hope she kept the sweatshirt as well.
00:50:27.360 --> 00:50:28.480
I hope she burned it, yeah.
00:50:28.559 --> 00:50:30.000
I don't I I don't know.
00:50:30.079 --> 00:50:37.679
It's complicated my my feelings about it because I'm like, yeah, I hope she burned it, but then I'm also like, uh the Liberty.
00:50:38.239 --> 00:50:39.760
But then I just I don't know.
00:50:39.840 --> 00:50:43.199
The Liberty have just I think just changed so much in the last couple of seasons.
00:50:43.360 --> 00:50:48.639
And this season is like has been such a fucking roller coaster.
00:50:49.199 --> 00:51:03.840
Yeah, like it came out officially Satsu spending time away from the team indefinitely, which honestly I forgot she was even on the team, and then she showed up courts or on the bench for one game like a month ago, and I was just like, Oh, I forgot she was on our team.
00:51:04.159 --> 00:51:05.360
Like, no disrespect, no shame.
00:51:07.840 --> 00:51:20.639
I just I think it makes sense that she's spending time away from the team given her concussion history, but I also think her concussion history should have been a reason why we did not sign her to a million-dollar contract.
00:51:21.679 --> 00:51:23.039
Make it make sense.
00:51:24.159 --> 00:51:25.519
It's not the same.
00:51:25.840 --> 00:51:41.360
It's not the same, but I can't help but think about Ben Simmons and how he got that fucking contract and then didn't play, was not showing up to work, and I know it's different because she's concussed, she should be focusing on her health.
00:51:42.880 --> 00:51:44.079
But also what the fuck.
00:51:44.320 --> 00:51:45.519
Yeah, but yeah, exactly.
00:51:45.599 --> 00:51:47.199
Like, didn't we see this coming?
00:51:47.920 --> 00:51:50.320
Like, yeah, wasn't this she's injury prone?
00:51:50.559 --> 00:51:52.960
She she's been injured the last like three seasons.
00:51:53.760 --> 00:51:56.639
Yeah, it's it's not been good.
00:51:56.800 --> 00:51:59.760
She's also not playing in the FIBA World Cup naturally.
00:51:59.920 --> 00:52:04.960
That would really piss me off if she was playing there and then not in New York.
00:52:05.119 --> 00:52:21.840
Um and then after releasing Bet Niza, we apparently did that so we could sign Marina Fatou to also question mark was no, she didn't get a single minute yesterday against the fever, which I'm just like, what was the reason?
00:52:22.079 --> 00:52:22.960
What was the reason?
00:52:23.039 --> 00:52:26.159
Why is she on our team for multi-years?
00:52:26.719 --> 00:52:31.840
No, it doesn't make any sense, and it's the same thing with Raquel Carrera getting minutes before Bet and Isa.
00:52:32.559 --> 00:52:34.559
It's sickening, sickening.
00:52:34.880 --> 00:52:36.880
I can't stand when Raquel's on the court.
00:52:36.960 --> 00:52:37.840
I'm like, get her off.
00:52:38.000 --> 00:52:42.480
I like what like what is it that we're seeing exactly?
00:52:42.880 --> 00:52:44.639
Like, what are we seeing from her?
00:52:44.800 --> 00:52:45.599
I I know what I'm saying.
00:52:45.760 --> 00:52:46.480
Like, how does she play?
00:52:46.639 --> 00:52:54.000
I mean, I don't know what Chris Marco and Jonathan Colb are seeing.
00:52:54.960 --> 00:52:57.599
You know, we really need Clara Wusai to step in.
00:52:57.840 --> 00:53:01.280
Honestly, that was just really funny because you were so deadass.
00:53:01.519 --> 00:53:02.960
You were like, I know what I'm seeing.
00:53:04.880 --> 00:53:08.079
She looks like Bambi every time she steps on the court, like she's never touched a ball.
00:53:08.400 --> 00:53:10.239
How was she playing when she's in Europe?
00:53:10.320 --> 00:53:11.039
Is my question.
00:53:11.119 --> 00:53:13.760
Like, what are they what what what am I not seeing?
00:53:14.000 --> 00:53:14.400
Exactly.
00:53:14.480 --> 00:53:15.280
I don't know.
00:53:15.599 --> 00:53:16.320
I don't know.
00:53:16.480 --> 00:53:25.599
I also just feel like excluding yesterday's game, generally speaking, the Liberty have just been showing so much unseriousness and apathy.
00:53:25.920 --> 00:53:29.599
Like, when they play, like they don't care.
00:53:29.760 --> 00:53:31.599
It's like they don't want to win.
00:53:31.920 --> 00:53:38.320
Then there's like the Chris DeMarco delusion where he has tried he's like, you know what?
00:53:38.639 --> 00:53:41.280
We're absolutely frying right now.
00:53:41.599 --> 00:53:43.360
Let's put Raquel in.
00:53:44.320 --> 00:53:45.760
Let's let's 100%.
00:53:46.320 --> 00:53:46.800
You know what?
00:53:47.039 --> 00:53:49.039
Annalie Maley's not suited up to you know what?
00:53:49.119 --> 00:53:50.000
Go go get dressed.
00:53:50.079 --> 00:53:51.280
Yeah, get in the locker room.
00:53:51.360 --> 00:53:54.480
I want to play all the developmental players that we have at the same time.
00:53:54.639 --> 00:53:54.880
Yeah.
00:53:55.039 --> 00:53:55.840
And you know what?
00:53:56.000 --> 00:53:57.199
And you know what?
00:53:57.679 --> 00:53:59.360
All of the starters sit down.
00:54:00.000 --> 00:54:00.320
Sit down.
00:54:00.559 --> 00:54:00.800
You know what?
00:54:01.360 --> 00:54:01.760
Take a break.
00:54:02.000 --> 00:54:03.679
He's like, you know what?
00:54:03.920 --> 00:54:05.519
Where are the stampas?
00:54:05.679 --> 00:54:07.199
Let's get somebody from the stampas.
00:54:07.360 --> 00:54:13.920
Let's get somebody from the fucking torches and of course the other torches, the OG torches.
00:54:14.480 --> 00:54:14.960
Timeless?
00:54:15.119 --> 00:54:15.360
Yeah.
00:54:15.519 --> 00:54:15.920
Thanks.
00:54:16.000 --> 00:54:17.280
I was like, they're not old.
00:54:17.519 --> 00:54:18.480
No, they're timeless.
00:54:18.639 --> 00:54:18.880
Sorry.
00:54:19.280 --> 00:54:21.199
I couldn't think I couldn't think of the adjective.
00:54:21.440 --> 00:54:31.599
He's like, let's get a representative from yeah, timeless torches, little torches, the stampas, a developmental player, and you know what?
00:54:31.840 --> 00:54:34.239
Let's get one of the security people.
00:54:35.199 --> 00:54:37.599
And let's see how they let's see how they rock on a court.
00:54:37.679 --> 00:54:38.480
Let's see what they're doing.
00:54:38.559 --> 00:54:39.840
Like it is actually fucking crazy.
00:54:40.159 --> 00:54:41.039
It is insane.
00:54:41.280 --> 00:54:43.760
I don't understand that man's strategy at all.
00:54:44.079 --> 00:54:44.960
What strategy?
00:54:45.519 --> 00:54:46.320
Exactly.
00:54:46.719 --> 00:54:53.360
Because I don't think I've ever seen another head coach in any sport just be sitting during a game.
00:54:54.639 --> 00:55:01.119
I feel like I've I genuinely think I've only ever seen head coaches pace up and down the sidelines, some of them even on the court.
00:55:01.199 --> 00:55:03.519
And I notably have said, girl, get off the court.
00:55:03.599 --> 00:55:04.320
What are you doing?
00:55:04.480 --> 00:55:04.719
Yep.
00:55:04.880 --> 00:55:09.679
Yeah, I remember when JJ ran into shit, took her out clean.
00:55:09.920 --> 00:55:12.480
And you seen Becky Hammond ate shit the other day.
00:55:12.960 --> 00:55:13.599
Yeah.
00:55:14.880 --> 00:55:17.199
Becky Hammond got ejected the other day, too.
00:55:17.360 --> 00:55:17.679
She did.
00:55:17.760 --> 00:55:19.519
Two techs in a row, she got ejected.
00:55:21.760 --> 00:55:22.079
Oh yeah.
00:55:22.480 --> 00:55:22.880
Coaches.
00:55:23.119 --> 00:55:24.079
The Atlanta coach, yeah.
00:55:24.239 --> 00:55:24.960
Kelsey Pumps.
00:55:25.679 --> 00:55:25.920
Oh yeah.
00:55:26.480 --> 00:55:27.280
See that Jack.
00:55:28.400 --> 00:55:31.119
Yeah, well, I don't know if you know that motherfucker lifts.
00:55:31.360 --> 00:55:32.079
He's big.
00:55:32.239 --> 00:55:33.280
No, he lifts for real.
00:55:33.360 --> 00:55:34.480
Like he's brolic, yeah.
00:55:34.719 --> 00:55:35.360
He's crazy.
00:55:35.920 --> 00:55:39.119
I literally always think that when I watch see him.
00:55:39.280 --> 00:55:41.519
I'm like, damn, you're big.
00:55:45.280 --> 00:55:52.159
Like no, I mean, like, it's actually it's actually wild.
00:55:52.239 --> 00:55:54.400
Like, also, can we talk about real quick?
00:55:54.480 --> 00:56:03.039
Just I just felt like there's something weird going on with the Liberty where like it is now a predominantly white team that is based in Brooklyn.
00:56:03.440 --> 00:56:19.440
Yeah, it's it's uh based in Brooklyn, the blackest borough, probably aside from Harlem, in New York, and it's barely any black girls on that team, and the the fucking mascot is definitely giving black woman energy.
00:56:19.599 --> 00:56:20.000
I don't know.
00:56:20.079 --> 00:56:24.639
It feels at the like it's starting to feel like caricature, it's weird, yeah.
00:56:25.039 --> 00:56:26.400
Yeah, I don't know.
00:56:26.480 --> 00:56:27.119
I don't know.
00:56:27.199 --> 00:56:29.760
The bench is like I don't I don't understand our bench.
00:56:29.840 --> 00:56:31.760
I think we have to trade Ellie to Atlanta.
00:56:32.079 --> 00:56:33.599
No, we can't lose Ellie.
00:56:33.840 --> 00:56:37.679
I know, but they like they like the black pantas.
00:56:37.840 --> 00:56:39.519
They like the black pantas in Atlanta.
00:56:39.599 --> 00:56:40.800
It's a bunch of black girls on Atlanta.
00:56:40.960 --> 00:56:42.000
Does he have a mascot?
00:56:42.400 --> 00:56:42.719
No.
00:56:43.679 --> 00:56:45.440
I mean, because you can't make Martin Luther King.
00:56:45.679 --> 00:56:47.519
You can't make Martin Luther King a mascot.
00:56:47.760 --> 00:56:48.639
I mean, I guess you could.
00:56:48.719 --> 00:56:49.920
I have a dream, you know what I mean?
00:56:50.079 --> 00:56:50.639
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
00:56:50.960 --> 00:56:51.840
I mean, you could.
00:56:52.159 --> 00:56:54.320
That'd be nah, that'd be that that'd be too funny.
00:56:54.400 --> 00:56:58.159
That's like the fucking AI videos of people making Martin Luther King rap.
00:56:58.239 --> 00:56:58.800
Have you seen those?
00:56:58.960 --> 00:56:59.199
No.
00:56:59.440 --> 00:57:00.239
Thank God you haven't.
00:57:00.480 --> 00:57:01.119
I don't want to see that.
00:57:01.440 --> 00:57:02.880
I'm just like, let that man rest.
00:57:03.119 --> 00:57:03.599
Literally.
00:57:03.840 --> 00:57:04.400
He's tired.
00:57:04.559 --> 00:57:07.519
He would be fucking turning, he probably is spinning in his grave.
00:57:07.679 --> 00:57:07.920
Yeah.
00:57:08.000 --> 00:57:09.840
He I mean he's certain he certainly is.
00:57:10.079 --> 00:57:10.800
I just I don't know.
00:57:10.880 --> 00:57:12.639
There's something Joe Peach then or something.
00:57:12.880 --> 00:57:13.519
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
00:57:13.679 --> 00:57:15.039
It's just something off about that though.
00:57:15.119 --> 00:57:16.079
Like, I don't know.
00:57:16.159 --> 00:57:20.559
The mascot is like giving black woman and it's like barely any black woman on a team.
00:57:20.719 --> 00:57:23.280
Shout out JJ, shout out Rebecca.
00:57:23.760 --> 00:57:27.039
And now Bal Balagoon, who we just signed.
00:57:27.119 --> 00:57:27.280
Yes.
00:57:27.599 --> 00:57:32.639
Who Yeah, she played, she was playing for another team and got released early in the season.
00:57:33.440 --> 00:57:34.719
She was playing for Sandy.
00:57:34.960 --> 00:57:35.440
Yes.
00:57:35.599 --> 00:57:36.000
Thank you.
00:57:36.079 --> 00:57:38.639
I was like, she was playing for one of the expansion teams.
00:57:39.360 --> 00:57:42.559
I wasn't sure if she was one of the black girls who got cut in Portland.
00:57:42.960 --> 00:57:44.480
You know, because they just, you know.
00:57:44.960 --> 00:57:47.440
I mean, we're right there.
00:57:48.159 --> 00:57:49.760
We might be the second whitest team.
00:57:49.840 --> 00:57:50.639
They're definitely the first.
00:57:50.800 --> 00:57:51.679
Oh my god, stop.
00:57:51.840 --> 00:57:52.639
Don't say that.
00:57:52.960 --> 00:57:53.679
It's true though.
00:57:53.840 --> 00:57:54.320
I think it's true.
00:57:54.719 --> 00:57:55.440
I think it might be true.
00:57:56.960 --> 00:58:04.719
Um, and then I I did have a note here about JJ's injury in Chicago, but I feel like that's no longer important because last night.
00:58:05.199 --> 00:58:06.800
He doesn't believe in restricted minutes.
00:58:07.039 --> 00:58:07.440
Yeah.
00:58:07.679 --> 00:58:09.039
That's what they said in the press conference.
00:58:09.119 --> 00:58:10.079
Chris DeMarker doesn't believe.
00:58:10.320 --> 00:58:12.000
He said he doesn't believe in restricted minutes.
00:58:12.320 --> 00:58:13.760
Brianna Stewart said that about him.
00:58:13.920 --> 00:58:14.159
Oh.
00:58:14.559 --> 00:58:16.800
He got a question and she goes, he doesn't believe in that.
00:58:17.199 --> 00:58:17.519
Oh.
00:58:17.840 --> 00:58:19.119
Isn't that funny?
00:58:19.519 --> 00:58:20.079
Yeah.
00:58:21.039 --> 00:58:21.440
You know what?
00:58:21.519 --> 00:58:22.400
Ain't shit funny.
00:58:22.559 --> 00:58:24.559
He should restrict Raquel's minutes, though.
00:58:27.280 --> 00:58:28.639
That's good, Bonnie.
00:58:29.679 --> 00:58:30.239
That's good.
00:58:31.679 --> 00:58:32.000
Okay.
00:58:32.480 --> 00:58:42.559
So uh JJ's injury doesn't fucking matter anyway, because last night we played against the Indiana Fever, the Confederacy in New York.
00:58:43.280 --> 00:58:45.039
And oh my god.
00:58:45.280 --> 00:58:48.480
Wait, I just put this two these two together.
00:58:48.719 --> 00:58:54.719
Coincidentally, they recreated the Battle of Brooklyn in Prospect Park yesterday.
00:58:55.760 --> 00:58:58.960
So it's kind of it's kind of regaining our independence.
00:58:59.199 --> 00:59:02.159
It really was a b it was a battle of Brooklyn.
00:59:02.320 --> 00:59:08.639
Like, first of all, I just want to give a huge shout out and and welcome back.
00:59:08.960 --> 00:59:11.360
Uh shout out to Leo.
00:59:11.920 --> 00:59:12.239
Yeah.
00:59:12.480 --> 00:59:14.480
A huge shout out and welcome back.
00:59:14.719 --> 00:59:15.519
Shout out.
00:59:15.760 --> 00:59:16.400
Shout out.
00:59:16.719 --> 00:59:19.119
To El Papa.
00:59:20.159 --> 00:59:20.559
Leo.
00:59:20.800 --> 00:59:21.920
She's like the Pope, bro.
00:59:22.000 --> 00:59:23.280
Like she's the chosen one.
00:59:23.360 --> 00:59:25.119
Like she, I don't know.
00:59:25.199 --> 00:59:26.079
She's God's favorite.
00:59:26.159 --> 00:59:27.679
She is touched by God, I think.
00:59:27.840 --> 00:59:30.400
She like she's brolic now, too.
00:59:30.559 --> 00:59:34.079
Like she came back thick calves, thick legs, thick arms.
00:59:34.320 --> 00:59:35.840
She's like, I gotta be ready.
00:59:36.000 --> 00:59:37.360
She said, you name me.
00:59:37.760 --> 00:59:40.800
Her back definitely had to be hurting after yesterday because she put the team on her back.
00:59:41.039 --> 00:59:41.599
She literally did.
00:59:41.760 --> 00:59:43.360
She came back 20.
00:59:43.679 --> 00:59:44.400
Yeah, 20.
00:59:44.559 --> 00:59:47.599
I think she was like 25 and something else.
00:59:47.760 --> 00:59:50.159
Um a season high for her.
00:59:50.400 --> 00:59:51.360
A season high.
00:59:51.519 --> 00:59:53.920
She was locking shit up on defense.
00:59:54.079 --> 01:00:00.159
Caitlin Clark was bitching and moaning all game, and it's just like it's not a foul just because she's hot and strong.
01:00:00.400 --> 01:00:01.039
Yeah.
01:00:01.519 --> 01:00:02.719
You know what I mean?
01:00:02.880 --> 01:00:05.039
Like, what that's not a foul.
01:00:05.280 --> 01:00:07.679
Like, I don't know what to tell you.
01:00:08.079 --> 01:00:09.440
She was cooking.
01:00:09.519 --> 01:00:13.920
Like, she really man, like, she just changes the identity of our team.
01:00:14.000 --> 01:00:15.840
And she plays good defense.
01:00:16.079 --> 01:00:17.119
Like, she's tall.
01:00:17.199 --> 01:00:18.079
She's 6'4, right?
01:00:18.159 --> 01:00:18.559
Yeah, she's fine.
01:00:18.719 --> 01:00:19.440
Yeah, she's tall.
01:00:19.519 --> 01:00:20.480
She's tall.
01:00:20.800 --> 01:00:21.199
Wow.
01:00:21.360 --> 01:00:22.719
I'm so glad she's back.
01:00:22.880 --> 01:00:29.119
Also, I have to say, like, the chemistry of the starting five with her back was like good again.
01:00:29.199 --> 01:00:29.760
You know what I mean?
01:00:29.840 --> 01:00:30.800
Oh my god, I know.
01:00:31.519 --> 01:00:32.400
It was like a different team.
01:00:33.039 --> 01:00:33.920
It's a different team.
01:00:34.079 --> 01:00:34.559
Yeah.
01:00:34.800 --> 01:00:36.320
Which is crazy.
01:00:36.559 --> 01:00:38.719
I mean, I guess that's yeah.
01:00:39.519 --> 01:00:40.400
I mean, listen.
01:00:40.880 --> 01:00:41.840
The impact of Leo.
01:00:42.079 --> 01:00:48.400
And if she didn't miss so many games, like I would argue she could be a candidate for MVP because look at how the team just changed.
01:00:48.559 --> 01:00:51.280
She got back on the court and all of a sudden they're cooking.
01:00:51.519 --> 01:00:52.000
I know.
01:00:52.239 --> 01:00:54.960
A hundred we scored a hundred points yesterday.
01:00:55.199 --> 01:00:55.760
I know.
01:00:55.920 --> 01:00:57.199
Like, that's crazy.
01:00:57.519 --> 01:00:58.239
Oh my god.
01:00:58.320 --> 01:00:59.119
Shout out to her.
01:00:59.280 --> 01:01:00.719
Thank God for you coming back.
01:01:00.880 --> 01:01:03.519
The game was very tight, too, the entire time.
01:01:03.760 --> 01:01:05.760
Yeah, it was very like shot for shot.
01:01:06.000 --> 01:01:06.639
Yeah.
01:01:06.880 --> 01:01:07.440
It was.
01:01:07.519 --> 01:01:08.400
And I didn't like it.
01:01:08.800 --> 01:01:15.119
There was one point though where they were getting close, and I remember saying to Brenda, I was just like, I don't even care if Indiana scores.
01:01:15.199 --> 01:01:17.599
We just need to go bucket for bucket for them until the game is over.
01:01:17.679 --> 01:01:18.639
Bucket for bucket.
01:01:18.719 --> 01:01:20.320
It's like I was so stressed.
01:01:20.480 --> 01:01:21.679
It was a stressful game.
01:01:21.920 --> 01:01:22.400
It was.
01:01:22.639 --> 01:01:28.480
Well, notably, I thought what was interesting is that Carol Lawson was calling the game.
01:01:28.639 --> 01:01:33.760
For those who don't know, she is the head coach for Team USA for this FIBA World Cup.
01:01:34.000 --> 01:01:38.320
And I found it really interesting that, not interesting, and lightning.
01:01:38.559 --> 01:01:46.480
I found it very pleasantly surprising that she was critiquing Caitlin Clark without even saying her name.
01:01:46.559 --> 01:01:52.079
But essentially, there were some really questionable decisions by Indiana.
01:01:52.159 --> 01:01:54.960
And by Indiana, I mean by Caitlin down the stretch.
01:01:55.119 --> 01:01:57.440
They ended up tying the game.
01:01:57.760 --> 01:02:01.280
And Leo, again, locked that ass up.
01:02:01.440 --> 01:02:02.800
She didn't get the foul.
01:02:03.199 --> 01:02:05.840
She was pissed that she didn't get the foul.
01:02:06.159 --> 01:02:06.800
Three tangent.
01:02:07.440 --> 01:02:08.960
And it was not a foul, notably.
01:02:09.119 --> 01:02:09.760
It was not a foul.
01:02:09.840 --> 01:02:10.719
It was just really good defense.
01:02:11.119 --> 01:02:11.679
She didn't get it.
01:02:11.760 --> 01:02:14.159
And so she didn't run back on defense.
01:02:14.320 --> 01:02:23.440
And so then, in order to recover, she tried to trap Pauline Astier along the sideline with Kelsey Mitchell and ended up fouling her.
01:02:23.519 --> 01:02:28.719
And we were in the bonus, which sent us to the line and put us up five instead of three.
01:02:28.960 --> 01:02:31.360
That's called no game IQ.
01:02:31.760 --> 01:02:32.239
Zero.
01:02:32.400 --> 01:02:34.559
Like it's okay to be frustrated.
01:02:34.719 --> 01:02:37.760
It is not okay to put your team in that kind of predicament.
01:02:37.840 --> 01:02:42.719
It is so, so fucking selfish, which explains exactly why she's never been a team captain.
01:02:42.880 --> 01:02:43.119
Yep.
01:02:43.280 --> 01:02:46.320
That's why Kate Martin was captain at Iowa and not her.
01:02:46.559 --> 01:02:47.119
That's true.
01:02:47.360 --> 01:02:49.360
Like it's it's really crazy.
01:02:49.519 --> 01:02:58.480
Like then I think Leo made it to the line uh for two, made the first, missed the second.
01:02:58.719 --> 01:03:02.960
Everybody on the fever team was boxing out except for Caitlin.
01:03:03.199 --> 01:03:05.119
No one boxed out the shooter.
01:03:05.440 --> 01:03:12.400
And even like in something as soon as you as like a rec game, yeah, like a quick little pickup five on five.
01:03:12.559 --> 01:03:15.280
You always have someone box out the shooter.
01:03:15.440 --> 01:03:18.639
You oh someone's always like, I got shooter, I got shooter.
01:03:18.960 --> 01:03:20.079
She just stood there.
01:03:20.239 --> 01:03:21.360
She literally just stood there.
01:03:21.519 --> 01:03:26.159
And then we got the ball again, and I'm pretty sure we either scored or went back to the line right after that.
01:03:26.400 --> 01:03:33.199
So geez, if I'm if I am on that team, I would be sick.
01:03:33.360 --> 01:03:39.119
I'd be like, Like, they're gonna watch tape, they're gonna watch tape and call it out, and I bet she won't take accountability for it.
01:03:39.360 --> 01:03:40.159
Of course not.
01:03:40.320 --> 01:03:46.239
Like they also I I wouldn't be sub I wouldn't be surprised if they didn't call it out because I feel like her ego is so precious.
01:03:46.320 --> 01:03:48.239
Like they walk on eggshells around her.
01:03:48.480 --> 01:03:55.519
Like it's like, oh, gotta protect her little fucking Which is dude, like it's it's so wild.
01:03:55.760 --> 01:03:57.280
She had a good game yesterday.
01:03:57.360 --> 01:03:58.239
I hate to say it.
01:03:58.320 --> 01:03:59.360
She had a good game.
01:03:59.519 --> 01:04:01.679
Yeah, she even limited the turnovers.
01:04:01.920 --> 01:04:02.880
Should only two.
01:04:03.119 --> 01:04:03.760
Only two.
01:04:03.920 --> 01:04:05.599
So they had to get a couple in there.
01:04:05.840 --> 01:04:06.480
Yeah.
01:04:06.880 --> 01:04:11.440
But you know, she did keep it to a minimum, which is still too many.
01:04:11.599 --> 01:04:12.159
It's crazy.
01:04:12.400 --> 01:04:14.000
Some of her passes were insane.
01:04:14.079 --> 01:04:15.920
I was like, Some of them should have been turnovers.
01:04:16.079 --> 01:04:18.400
She probably should have had at least five or six turnovers yesterday.
01:04:18.719 --> 01:04:23.119
If I were Aliyah or Kelsey, I would have been like, girl, look when you pass.
01:04:23.280 --> 01:04:25.760
Like bring your head up.
01:04:26.079 --> 01:04:26.400
Yeah.
01:04:26.559 --> 01:04:28.719
I mean, it's yeah.
01:04:29.280 --> 01:04:33.360
Also, the complaining to the refs is like such it's such a nauseating.
01:04:33.679 --> 01:04:34.960
Like, literally, please shut up.
01:04:35.199 --> 01:04:36.719
I feel like all of them do it now.
01:04:36.880 --> 01:04:41.519
Like at one point, I saw her doing it, Sophie doing it, and Aliyah doing it at the same time.
01:04:42.000 --> 01:04:42.880
One to each ref.
01:04:43.119 --> 01:04:43.280
Yeah.
01:04:43.440 --> 01:04:48.239
And I was like, Oh, Sophie was chirping at the refs the entire time, even when she had nothing to do with the play.
01:04:48.480 --> 01:04:49.920
She did that weird, like clapping.
01:04:50.320 --> 01:04:50.719
Oh, yeah.
01:04:50.800 --> 01:04:54.800
She was clapping, she was clapping at Rebecca Gardner after she fouled her.
01:04:55.039 --> 01:04:56.239
What a stupid bitch.
01:04:56.400 --> 01:04:56.960
I hate her.
01:04:57.280 --> 01:04:57.599
Yep.
01:04:57.760 --> 01:04:58.320
Hate her.
01:04:58.559 --> 01:04:59.360
I wish she had any.
01:04:59.840 --> 01:05:00.480
What's her nickname?
01:05:01.199 --> 01:05:02.000
Cunting him.
01:05:03.360 --> 01:05:04.639
So good.
01:05:06.159 --> 01:05:06.960
Yeah, I don't know.
01:05:07.039 --> 01:05:09.199
I just it felt like we really needed that win.
01:05:09.280 --> 01:05:11.519
We talked about it a little bit off the air too.
01:05:11.760 --> 01:05:16.719
Just I felt like we needed that win for the trans community.
01:05:16.800 --> 01:05:17.039
Yep.
01:05:17.199 --> 01:05:18.880
And for the queer community just generally.
01:05:21.920 --> 01:05:24.000
Like you can't come here and bring that fucking energy.
01:05:24.159 --> 01:05:24.400
No.
01:05:24.639 --> 01:05:26.400
You cannot come here and bring that fucking energy.
01:05:26.480 --> 01:05:29.920
And I know all of us were sitting around some obnoxious Indiana fans.
01:05:30.159 --> 01:05:36.480
Yeah, and honestly, like every time they would score or do something that got cheers from fever fans, I would boo!
01:05:36.960 --> 01:05:37.679
Boo!
01:05:38.079 --> 01:05:39.840
Just like one boo.
01:05:40.239 --> 01:05:40.559
Good.
01:05:40.800 --> 01:05:41.280
Right after.
01:05:41.360 --> 01:05:42.719
I wanted people to know where I stood.
01:05:42.960 --> 01:05:46.719
Um, Amanda's section notably started chanting Sophie Sucks.
01:05:46.880 --> 01:05:47.119
Yeah.
01:05:47.360 --> 01:05:48.960
We heard it from all the way over in ours.
01:05:49.280 --> 01:05:50.480
We I don't know.
01:05:50.559 --> 01:05:52.079
I was just like, yeah, you know what?
01:05:52.239 --> 01:05:53.199
I like to see it.
01:05:53.280 --> 01:05:54.000
I like to see it.
01:05:54.079 --> 01:05:54.880
I like to hear it.
01:05:55.119 --> 01:05:59.760
Even the guy who usually starts the all we got, all we need chance, he passed by our eye.
01:06:00.320 --> 01:06:01.840
And I missed him by split second bar.
01:06:02.000 --> 01:06:04.000
I almost said to him, hey, we're really gonna need you tonight.
01:06:04.159 --> 01:06:04.480
Yeah.
01:06:04.960 --> 01:06:10.000
And thank God he he was starting the chance, but he thanked God was not doing all we got, all we need.
01:06:10.239 --> 01:06:11.519
I did hear it at one point.
01:06:11.679 --> 01:06:13.199
No, not from your section.
01:06:13.519 --> 01:06:15.360
I think it was like across the court.
01:06:15.599 --> 01:06:18.480
I told him not Wow.
01:06:18.639 --> 01:06:22.320
Yeah, no, he was leading the let's go to the birthday.
01:06:22.639 --> 01:06:22.880
Good.
01:06:22.960 --> 01:06:23.760
He's that guy.
01:06:23.920 --> 01:06:26.320
And also the you can't do that.
01:06:26.639 --> 01:06:26.960
Good.
01:06:27.039 --> 01:06:28.159
He loves doing that one.
01:06:28.239 --> 01:06:28.480
Yeah.
01:06:28.639 --> 01:06:29.119
You know what?
01:06:29.280 --> 01:06:30.159
We needed to be loud.
01:06:30.239 --> 01:06:36.719
And I'm glad because like a few hours before the game, we were like, should we put our tickets up on Ticketmaster?
01:06:37.119 --> 01:06:37.360
Same.
01:06:37.440 --> 01:06:38.320
We were like playing around.
01:06:39.519 --> 01:06:41.360
We could just watch it from T from the Couch.
01:06:41.519 --> 01:06:43.519
And no, I was like, we should go.
01:06:43.599 --> 01:06:44.239
We should be loud.
01:06:44.480 --> 01:06:46.320
It felt, yeah, it felt important.
01:06:46.559 --> 01:06:47.599
It felt more than basketball.
01:06:47.679 --> 01:06:58.480
It felt like I would I literally said to run, I was just like, I don't know, there's like some like racial stuff too that I'm just like, I I want and expect more from allies.
01:06:58.639 --> 01:06:58.880
Yeah.
01:06:59.039 --> 01:07:04.559
And then I was like, well, I don't really feel like I can say that if I can't show up for the trans community.
01:07:04.880 --> 01:07:05.280
Yeah.
01:07:05.599 --> 01:07:18.239
So that's like I was like, even if I don't like attend the pregame protest, even like I was just like, but just my presence being there and making sure that someone else isn't taking that, taking up that space.
01:07:18.559 --> 01:07:18.880
Agree.
01:07:19.440 --> 01:07:22.159
And you know, it's the little things you do what you can.
01:07:22.400 --> 01:07:22.880
100%.
01:07:23.280 --> 01:07:25.039
Just felt like it was a little hypocritical.
01:07:25.199 --> 01:07:25.440
Yeah.
01:07:25.599 --> 01:07:26.079
You know.
01:07:26.400 --> 01:07:31.119
So but all that to say, this is a pro trans podcast.
01:07:31.360 --> 01:07:31.679
100%.
01:07:32.079 --> 01:07:32.880
If you didn't know that already.
01:07:32.960 --> 01:07:34.239
Yeah, if you if you if you didn't know that already.
01:07:34.400 --> 01:07:36.800
If you had any questions, if you don't know, now you know.
01:07:36.960 --> 01:07:37.920
Now you know.
01:07:39.039 --> 01:07:39.440
Yeah.
01:07:39.599 --> 01:07:52.320
Well, I mean, I guess we'll we'll see where the Liberty Net out in these next couple of games, because I do feel like a lot of team records are very close to each other, so really anything can happen.
01:07:52.880 --> 01:07:56.960
But I do have a feeling that we'll make the playoffs.
01:07:57.280 --> 01:07:57.920
That we will.
01:07:58.079 --> 01:07:58.559
Yeah.
01:07:58.880 --> 01:07:59.760
I have a feeling.
01:08:00.079 --> 01:08:02.159
I have a feeling we will as well.
01:08:02.400 --> 01:08:04.239
And I'm happy that Leo's back and stuff.
01:08:04.320 --> 01:08:09.920
I just like it has just felt like such a chore to watch the Liberty.
01:08:10.159 --> 01:08:18.800
And we talked about this a little bit too, just like watching the W right now has felt so hard because of all of the extra political conversation that's happening around it.
01:08:18.880 --> 01:08:22.720
It's like sucking the f the fun and the joy out of the league.
01:08:22.800 --> 01:08:23.119
I don't know.
01:08:23.359 --> 01:08:27.439
And it's like, why why why do they go have to go and ruin something good?
01:08:27.520 --> 01:08:28.079
You know what I mean?
01:08:28.319 --> 01:08:29.439
It's so exhausting.
01:08:29.600 --> 01:08:32.319
I've I miss when they didn't care about us.
01:08:32.640 --> 01:08:33.920
I do too, kinda.
01:08:34.159 --> 01:08:34.560
Yeah.
01:08:34.880 --> 01:08:36.159
Which is really sad.
01:08:36.880 --> 01:08:44.079
And like I don't like that people are arguing, like, oh well, this is what happens, you know, you wanted all this attention and now you got it and now you don't like it.
01:08:44.159 --> 01:08:48.960
And it's just like, but it's not even that's not even nobody's throwing dildos at NBA games.
01:08:49.119 --> 01:08:49.520
Right.
01:08:49.680 --> 01:08:50.880
Like, ugh.
01:08:51.119 --> 01:08:58.239
It's yeah, it just says a lot about how people feel about women's sports, and it was never about women's sports.
01:08:58.720 --> 01:08:59.520
Yeah, and about women.
01:08:59.840 --> 01:09:01.199
Yes, that's what I meant for real.
01:09:01.279 --> 01:09:02.960
Actually, America hates women.
01:09:03.119 --> 01:09:04.319
Yeah, they do.
01:09:04.399 --> 01:09:07.039
And I honestly, I say it all the time.
01:09:07.199 --> 01:09:08.560
Most men don't like women.
01:09:08.800 --> 01:09:09.119
Yep.
01:09:09.359 --> 01:09:10.880
Most men do not like women.
01:09:11.039 --> 01:09:13.199
Like they just want male affirmation.
01:09:13.359 --> 01:09:13.840
Yeah.
01:09:14.159 --> 01:09:21.520
So yeah, I mean, that said on that, I guess we'll see how the rest of the season's the season goes, and and we'll go from there.
01:09:21.600 --> 01:09:24.239
I uh this episode, I don't think we're gonna have an overtime.
01:09:24.399 --> 01:09:34.159
No, and we're not gonna have a 24-second shot clock because I've already spent more than 24 seconds talking about uh the anti-trans movement and Sophie Cuntingham.
01:09:34.319 --> 01:09:35.439
Sophie Cuntingham.
01:09:35.760 --> 01:09:40.399
So with that, we're gonna we're gonna end this episode, episode 19.
01:09:41.119 --> 01:09:41.760
Y'all.
01:09:42.079 --> 01:09:44.079
Wow, that's pretty incredible.
01:09:44.960 --> 01:09:48.079
I think our offseason is coming up soon, right after the playoffs.
01:09:48.239 --> 01:09:50.640
Yeah, but then we're uh and then unrivaled.
01:09:50.800 --> 01:09:52.880
Just for a little, just so it's just a little break, a little break.
01:09:53.119 --> 01:09:53.520
You know what?
01:09:53.600 --> 01:09:55.520
Okay, sorry, the quick side note.
01:09:55.680 --> 01:09:58.560
Do we think Unrivaled's gonna be in Miami or somewhere else?
01:09:58.720 --> 01:10:00.399
I think it'll be primarily Miami.
01:10:00.560 --> 01:10:01.279
Okay, okay, cool.
01:10:01.439 --> 01:10:03.680
But I do think they'll probably do some more road stops.
01:10:03.920 --> 01:10:04.479
Yeah, yeah.
01:10:04.560 --> 01:10:05.039
Okay, cool.
01:10:05.119 --> 01:10:08.479
Because like they have their whole facility in Miami, it's like not the same as the dub.
01:10:08.720 --> 01:10:12.319
Like, what does the infrastructure look like for providing the same benefits?
01:10:12.560 --> 01:10:17.920
Okay, but I I do wonder how Project B is gonna impact that.
01:10:18.560 --> 01:10:19.359
True.
01:10:19.920 --> 01:10:21.600
I kind of forgot about Project B.
01:10:21.920 --> 01:10:27.760
Yeah, I only remembered it because AZ is supposed to play in it, which I thought was interesting because she was allegedly unrivaled.
01:10:28.000 --> 01:10:30.720
Um she ain't doing shit.
01:10:31.840 --> 01:10:35.119
And NECA is supposed to play in Unrivaled?
01:10:35.439 --> 01:10:36.560
No, in Project B.
01:10:38.800 --> 01:10:39.439
I think.
01:10:39.760 --> 01:10:40.079
Yeah.
01:10:40.479 --> 01:10:44.960
So how can so we'll find out.
01:10:45.119 --> 01:10:46.560
What does it mean when you retire?
01:10:47.119 --> 01:10:48.319
That's a really great question.
01:10:48.640 --> 01:10:51.600
Well, because that's why I had that question around Beck Allen.
01:10:52.720 --> 01:10:53.359
I know.
01:10:54.000 --> 01:10:57.520
Okay, well, if you're listening and you're retired, let me know.
01:10:58.319 --> 01:10:58.800
Tell us.
01:10:59.039 --> 01:10:59.680
Yeah.
01:11:00.000 --> 01:11:00.319
Okay.
01:11:00.560 --> 01:11:00.720
Okay.
01:11:01.119 --> 01:11:03.439
Anyway, that great episode.
01:11:03.600 --> 01:11:04.159
Great episode.
01:11:04.399 --> 01:11:04.960
Great episode.
01:11:05.119 --> 01:11:07.119
Lots of things moving, lots of things cooking.
01:11:07.359 --> 01:11:13.119
Playoffs should be really exciting, and if deliberately don't make it, I will be rooting, using all my energy to root against Indiana.
01:11:13.359 --> 01:11:13.920
Of course.
01:11:14.079 --> 01:11:14.399
Yeah.
01:11:14.800 --> 01:11:15.760
Never Indiana.
01:11:16.000 --> 01:11:16.399
Never.
01:11:16.640 --> 01:11:16.880
Okay.
01:11:16.960 --> 01:11:18.560
Well, thanks for listening, you guys.
01:11:18.720 --> 01:11:22.479
This has been another episode of Chasing the W.
00:00:07.679 --> 00:00:10.160
Welcome back to another episode of Chasing the W.
00:00:10.480 --> 00:00:11.199
I'm Amanda.
00:00:11.279 --> 00:00:12.320
And I'm Bonnie.
00:00:12.720 --> 00:00:13.519
Bonnie, what's up?
00:00:13.599 --> 00:00:14.240
What's going on?
00:00:14.560 --> 00:00:14.960
Hey.
00:00:15.279 --> 00:00:16.719
You know, not a lot's going on.
00:00:16.800 --> 00:00:18.879
We were out of the country for two weeks.
00:00:19.199 --> 00:00:20.559
That's low key a lot going on.
00:00:20.719 --> 00:00:21.839
That is a lot going on, actually.
00:00:21.920 --> 00:00:22.879
Okay, you're right.
00:00:23.120 --> 00:00:29.120
Uh we went to Iceland for a week and then we went to Scotland for a week.
00:00:29.359 --> 00:00:31.039
And it was a gorgeous time.
00:00:31.280 --> 00:00:32.479
Gorgeous, gorgeous time.
00:00:32.560 --> 00:00:33.600
And I missed you every day.
00:00:33.759 --> 00:00:34.560
I missed you too.
00:00:34.799 --> 00:00:36.960
Every day I thought, what time is it in Iceland?
00:00:37.119 --> 00:00:37.280
Yeah.
00:00:37.439 --> 00:00:40.159
That was even after you were no longer in Iceland.
00:00:41.280 --> 00:00:45.119
Um it was a nice time to be away, but now we're broke as as hell.
00:00:45.200 --> 00:00:46.320
So we gotta stay home.
00:00:46.479 --> 00:00:47.679
It'd be like that sometimes.
00:00:47.840 --> 00:00:48.079
I know.
00:00:48.240 --> 00:00:48.640
You know what?
00:00:48.719 --> 00:00:49.520
This is what we work for.
00:00:49.600 --> 00:00:52.560
That's what I kept saying to Eliza when we were spending much money.
00:00:52.719 --> 00:00:54.000
I was like, this is what we work for.
00:00:54.240 --> 00:00:55.840
You can't take it with you, I'll tell you that.
00:00:56.079 --> 00:00:57.119
That's what I also say too.
00:00:57.439 --> 00:00:58.000
I say that all the time.
00:00:58.079 --> 00:00:58.560
You keep it.
00:00:58.719 --> 00:00:59.920
I'm not taking it after I die.
00:01:00.000 --> 00:01:01.119
What am I gonna do with all this money?
00:01:01.280 --> 00:01:02.960
We don't live to work, we work to live.
00:01:03.439 --> 00:01:04.079
Exactly.
00:01:04.719 --> 00:01:06.000
Remember that, listeners.
00:01:06.480 --> 00:01:08.400
I mean, because what are you gonna do?
00:01:08.719 --> 00:01:10.000
Bury the money with you?
00:01:10.319 --> 00:01:10.640
No.
00:01:11.359 --> 00:01:12.480
Worms will eat it.
00:01:12.640 --> 00:01:13.200
Yeah.
00:01:13.519 --> 00:01:14.879
Just like we're eating the worms.
00:01:14.959 --> 00:01:15.760
It's the circle of life.
00:01:15.840 --> 00:01:15.920
Yeah.
00:01:16.239 --> 00:01:18.159
Listeners, we're always eating worms on the pod.
00:01:18.640 --> 00:01:25.760
I usually we're having trolley sources.
00:01:25.920 --> 00:01:26.560
Right crawlers.
00:01:26.719 --> 00:01:27.519
Bright crawlers.
00:01:27.599 --> 00:01:27.840
Yep.
00:01:27.920 --> 00:01:35.040
They're the the ones you usually see in the bodega, notably not Albany's, which are Bonnie's favorite.
00:01:35.200 --> 00:01:35.359
True.
00:01:35.519 --> 00:01:36.959
Albanese are my favorite.
00:01:37.280 --> 00:01:39.760
But you know, trolley's good too.
00:01:40.079 --> 00:01:44.079
They do you remember when like there used to be video games with like trolley?
00:01:44.560 --> 00:01:45.040
Nope.
00:01:45.200 --> 00:01:46.239
Okay, I can't remember.
00:01:46.319 --> 00:01:46.799
Do you remember?
00:01:47.120 --> 00:01:48.560
Maybe it was like PC games.
00:01:48.719 --> 00:01:49.280
Oh my gosh.
00:01:49.599 --> 00:01:53.680
I don't remember, but it was like can't like branded candy games.
00:01:54.400 --> 00:01:54.879
That's crazy.
00:01:56.239 --> 00:01:56.400
Yeah.
00:01:57.439 --> 00:01:58.400
I'm gonna have to look this up later.
00:01:58.480 --> 00:02:03.120
But Bonnie's been just just a pot of fucking knowledge this weekend.
00:02:03.359 --> 00:02:07.359
She's like you're like five for five at this point.
00:02:07.599 --> 00:02:12.800
Like Bonnie very specifically called out the existence of a murder hornet.
00:02:12.879 --> 00:02:14.240
She's like, is that a murder hornet?
00:02:14.479 --> 00:02:16.159
We were just like, what are you talking about?
00:02:16.560 --> 00:02:19.280
And then and then you knew about the fucking the dolphins.
00:02:19.599 --> 00:02:19.919
Yeah.
00:02:20.080 --> 00:02:21.120
Tell people about the dolphins.
00:02:21.360 --> 00:02:22.400
I don't think people know about this.
00:02:22.800 --> 00:02:28.319
In San Diego, shout out to my brother-in-law Kyle because he knows this.
00:02:28.479 --> 00:02:29.680
He taught me, I think.
00:02:29.840 --> 00:02:43.439
Um, but in San Diego, the Navy trains dolphins to use their sonar echolocation um to like find weapons underneath the sea, in the sea.
00:02:43.680 --> 00:02:44.400
Bombs.
00:02:44.639 --> 00:02:48.400
I don't know what else would be there, but I guess mostly bombs.
00:02:48.719 --> 00:02:57.199
It's just crazy because Bonnie just randomly pulled this tidbit out of thin air, and we all low-key were gaslighting her.
00:02:57.280 --> 00:02:57.439
Yeah.
00:02:57.599 --> 00:02:59.120
You guys were like, no, you're stupid.
00:02:59.759 --> 00:03:01.039
Okay, well, no one said that.
00:03:01.280 --> 00:03:02.080
No one said that.
00:03:02.400 --> 00:03:02.960
No one said that.
00:03:03.120 --> 00:03:03.759
You're right, you're right.
00:03:04.000 --> 00:03:08.639
Actually, I think I think Megan said, Yeah, that's the story Bonnie told herself.
00:03:08.719 --> 00:03:08.879
Yeah.
00:03:09.039 --> 00:03:15.840
I think actually what Megan said was what AI ads have you been clicking, Bonnie?
00:03:16.159 --> 00:03:17.280
Which you know what?
00:03:17.439 --> 00:03:18.639
That's also fucked up.
00:03:18.800 --> 00:03:25.199
So I I I I don't know, Megan, but I I will admit I didn't believe I was just like, Bonnie's lost her shit.
00:03:25.280 --> 00:03:26.639
I was like, I don't know what she's talking about.
00:03:26.719 --> 00:03:27.280
But it's real.
00:03:27.439 --> 00:03:27.919
It is real.
00:03:28.080 --> 00:03:30.000
We Googled it, we have fact-checked it.
00:03:30.240 --> 00:03:33.360
It's pretty crazy what we humans are doing.
00:03:33.680 --> 00:03:35.439
Yeah, I just didn't I don't know.
00:03:35.520 --> 00:03:39.039
I guess I just didn't consider dolphins to be trainable.
00:03:39.360 --> 00:03:40.240
They're smart though.
00:03:40.319 --> 00:03:41.280
They're really smart.
00:03:41.520 --> 00:03:45.680
Yeah, I just like like why are we training dolphins?
00:03:46.000 --> 00:03:46.800
Do you know what I mean?
00:03:46.879 --> 00:03:48.960
Like I didn't think that was a thing that we were doing.
00:03:49.039 --> 00:03:52.479
I thought dolphins were just kind of out there chilling in their natural habitat.
00:03:52.879 --> 00:03:53.599
SeaWorld?
00:03:54.080 --> 00:03:55.039
Yeah, I guess.
00:03:55.680 --> 00:03:56.879
You know the dolphin shows.
00:03:57.039 --> 00:04:00.719
I guess I just don't think about SeaWorld because I don't give money to those establishments.
00:04:01.199 --> 00:04:01.520
Yeah.
00:04:01.759 --> 00:04:05.439
So I actually don't really often time, you know, I don't spend any thoughts on them.
00:04:05.599 --> 00:04:15.439
So also another thing about dolphins is that they can like sense a woman is pregnant because of like the echolocation stuff too.
00:04:15.919 --> 00:04:16.240
Whoa.
00:04:16.639 --> 00:04:19.040
Like a natural ultrasound, is that what you're saying?
00:04:19.199 --> 00:04:21.680
Um I don't know if it's like that.
00:04:22.000 --> 00:04:22.879
I mean, yeah, it is.
00:04:23.040 --> 00:04:23.680
Let's say yeah.
00:04:24.160 --> 00:04:25.199
Because like what else would it be?
00:04:25.519 --> 00:04:25.680
Yeah.
00:04:25.920 --> 00:04:27.199
Umar.
00:04:27.839 --> 00:04:28.959
Yeah, sonar, yeah, yeah, yeah.
00:04:29.120 --> 00:04:33.519
You can like hear the heartbeat and like sense that there's something in there.
00:04:34.160 --> 00:04:35.360
That's pretty insane.
00:04:35.920 --> 00:04:36.639
Cats too.
00:04:36.720 --> 00:04:38.639
I mean, animals are just they'd be knowing.
00:04:38.879 --> 00:04:39.759
They be knowing stuff.
00:04:40.000 --> 00:04:41.120
They'd be knowing stuff.
00:04:41.519 --> 00:04:45.839
That would be my superpower, I think, if I had one, is to be able to talk to animals.
00:04:46.319 --> 00:04:50.240
Honestly, yeah, because sometimes I like wonder what the hell they're thinking.
00:04:50.399 --> 00:04:51.439
Me too, all the time.
00:04:51.600 --> 00:04:57.279
Which actually, while you were gone, I went to the movies a lot because I bought myself an AMC A list.
00:04:57.519 --> 00:04:59.439
Oh, I didn't know this.
00:04:59.600 --> 00:05:02.160
Yeah, and so I have seen so many movies.
00:05:02.399 --> 00:05:03.199
Did you see Spider-Man?
00:05:03.360 --> 00:05:03.439
Yeah.
00:05:03.680 --> 00:05:04.079
I went off.
00:05:04.560 --> 00:05:06.319
Don't worry, we're I'm gonna see it again with you.
00:05:06.480 --> 00:05:07.040
Okay, great.
00:05:07.199 --> 00:05:10.000
That's that's the only reason why I went to go see it already.
00:05:10.079 --> 00:05:11.040
I said, I can't wait for them.
00:05:11.120 --> 00:05:12.079
I have to see it in IMAX.
00:05:12.639 --> 00:05:13.120
That's right.
00:05:13.199 --> 00:05:20.160
Um, so yeah, we saw, well, I saw the Odyssey 70 millimeters.
00:05:20.480 --> 00:05:20.959
Yep.
00:05:21.279 --> 00:05:23.600
Not IMAX, but 70 millimeters.
00:05:24.240 --> 00:05:27.759
And then I saw Spider-Man in IMAX.
00:05:28.399 --> 00:05:28.639
Okay.
00:05:28.879 --> 00:05:37.120
And then I also saw The Wrong Girls with Kristen Stewart and uh some other Ohio.
00:05:37.360 --> 00:05:37.920
Some other girls.
00:05:38.000 --> 00:05:38.160
Yeah.
00:05:38.560 --> 00:05:39.279
Shockwat.
00:05:39.519 --> 00:05:40.160
Yeah, yeah.
00:05:40.480 --> 00:05:41.279
Short Cat.
00:05:41.439 --> 00:05:42.560
Yeah, I heard like that.
00:05:42.800 --> 00:05:48.399
Um, and then I also saw the end of Oak Street with our Queen Anne Hathaway.
00:05:49.120 --> 00:05:50.879
Princess of Genovia.
00:05:51.199 --> 00:05:51.759
Princess.
00:05:52.319 --> 00:05:53.040
Princess.
00:05:53.600 --> 00:06:06.720
Um, okay, so without giving spoilers, the end of Oak Street is essentially like it's I was wondering if it was gonna if it was like Jurassic Park or like Jumanji adjacent adjacent, adjacent.
00:06:07.120 --> 00:06:10.319
Um but it was it was interesting.
00:06:10.399 --> 00:06:21.040
It was just like essentially like this entire two-mile radius of a neighborhood interesting, ends up like in a time warp where they get sent back to prehistoric times, and it's like a survival movie.
00:06:21.199 --> 00:06:21.759
I'm into it.
00:06:21.920 --> 00:06:24.079
It was actually, I'm not gonna lie, it was pretty it was pretty good.
00:06:24.160 --> 00:06:26.639
Anne Hathaway could play anyone, anything, anytime.
00:06:26.879 --> 00:06:30.720
Apparently, Eliza just told me from the background that it got bad reviews.
00:06:31.040 --> 00:06:31.680
It did?
00:06:31.839 --> 00:06:33.519
Yeah, I got like 30% on rotten tomatoes.
00:06:34.079 --> 00:06:34.560
You know what?
00:06:34.639 --> 00:06:36.079
But sometimes that doesn't matter.
00:06:36.240 --> 00:06:38.319
I got 30% on Rotten Tomatoes.
00:06:38.959 --> 00:06:42.319
But I just remember seeing sometimes you just gotta see the movie and judge the video.
00:06:42.480 --> 00:06:45.439
The producer loves to fact check me.
00:06:45.680 --> 00:06:47.680
She said, actually, that movie was shit.
00:06:47.839 --> 00:06:48.959
Oh, wait, no, sorry.
00:06:49.040 --> 00:06:49.439
I lied.
00:06:49.519 --> 00:06:50.800
It's 80% run tomatoes.
00:06:50.879 --> 00:06:51.040
Okay.
00:06:51.279 --> 00:06:52.879
Just to confirm, she's a liar.
00:06:53.040 --> 00:06:53.199
Yeah.
00:06:53.439 --> 00:06:53.839
I'm a liar.
00:06:54.000 --> 00:06:55.199
Don't listen to that last bit.
00:06:55.279 --> 00:06:56.720
Go see the end of Oak Street.
00:06:56.959 --> 00:06:59.279
Yeah, because Anne Hathaway really can do whatever she wants.
00:06:59.519 --> 00:07:00.000
She's so beautiful.
00:07:00.160 --> 00:07:01.439
Also, she's in everything right now.
00:07:01.680 --> 00:07:03.360
She's in the Odyssey, she's in that.
00:07:03.439 --> 00:07:05.279
She's in She's gonna be in Yes to you.
00:07:05.839 --> 00:07:07.600
Oh, yeah, she was stunning.
00:07:07.920 --> 00:07:10.720
She was stunning in Odd in the Odyssey.
00:07:11.600 --> 00:07:12.079
I love her.
00:07:12.480 --> 00:07:18.000
Okay, what I will say about the Odyssey, and I don't believe that spoilers exist for this movie.
00:07:18.160 --> 00:07:19.519
The story's been out for like a fucking week.
00:07:19.759 --> 00:07:22.000
We all read the fucking book in high school.
00:07:22.319 --> 00:07:27.839
So essentially the Odyssey is just like the story of Odysseus's journey back to his wife.
00:07:28.720 --> 00:07:31.519
Um man, she was stunning.
00:07:31.600 --> 00:07:37.279
The one thing that did take me out of it a little bit though is that I expected at least like a British accent.
00:07:37.759 --> 00:07:42.319
And then and then Tom Holland opened his mouth and he was American, and I was like, ugh, whoa.
00:07:42.560 --> 00:07:49.600
Cause I and also to be clear, we saw Spider-Man the night before, and then I went to go see the Odyssey right after, and so he was in both of those, and it was just like really, right?
00:07:49.839 --> 00:07:50.079
Yeah.
00:07:50.240 --> 00:07:52.959
He but he had more of a New York accent, I would say.
00:07:53.040 --> 00:07:56.079
His his accent has gotten much better for Spider-Man.
00:07:56.480 --> 00:08:10.639
I love when um I'm really bad at doing accents, so like when people can do really good American accents and like Yeah, when you don't know like there have been so many actors that like I have found out after the fact that like are Australian.
00:08:10.800 --> 00:08:14.079
Like who's the um girl in secession, babe?
00:08:14.319 --> 00:08:17.040
Uh uh, I forget her name.
00:08:17.199 --> 00:08:18.800
She's like reddish hair.
00:08:20.480 --> 00:08:21.279
Bless you.
00:08:21.759 --> 00:08:22.399
Bless you.
00:08:22.800 --> 00:08:23.360
Bless you.
00:08:23.600 --> 00:08:26.160
Uh she's Australian.
00:08:27.279 --> 00:08:28.160
Sarah Snook.
00:08:28.399 --> 00:08:28.800
Yes.
00:08:29.120 --> 00:08:32.720
She's Australian, but her American accent is so fucking good.
00:08:32.879 --> 00:08:33.440
You would never know.
00:08:33.679 --> 00:08:38.000
It's like the guy um from Widow's Bay, he's the main character.
00:08:38.399 --> 00:08:39.440
He's Australian, isn't he?
00:08:39.679 --> 00:08:40.879
He's English, but Welsh.
00:08:41.279 --> 00:08:42.080
Welsh, sorry.
00:08:42.320 --> 00:08:46.639
But I heard him speak with the act like a British act or Welsh accent, whatever.
00:08:46.879 --> 00:08:50.799
And I was like, oh my god, I had I totally forgot he wasn't American.
00:08:51.039 --> 00:08:54.240
No, like we saw we saw some interviews and we were just like, whoa.
00:08:54.559 --> 00:08:54.720
Yeah.
00:08:55.200 --> 00:08:55.919
So who is that?
00:08:57.360 --> 00:08:58.320
The Americans.
00:08:58.960 --> 00:09:00.000
The Americans?
00:09:00.159 --> 00:09:00.399
Yes.
00:09:01.360 --> 00:09:03.759
I think I told you about it at Brenda's birthday.
00:09:03.919 --> 00:09:06.960
It's him, Matthew Reese, David Russell.
00:09:07.200 --> 00:09:07.600
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
00:09:07.679 --> 00:09:08.240
That's his name.
00:09:08.480 --> 00:09:14.080
That's where they met, and now they're like, they're I don't think they're married, but they're like partners.
00:09:14.320 --> 00:09:16.159
They've been partners forever and they have kids together.
00:09:16.399 --> 00:09:17.279
It's just like crazy.
00:09:17.360 --> 00:09:23.679
Do you remember, and I we will get off of this, this, this pleasantry shit in a second, but like how we started.
00:09:23.840 --> 00:09:26.080
Yeah, have you seen have you seen Phone Booth?
00:09:26.240 --> 00:09:27.440
It's like a super old movie.
00:09:27.600 --> 00:09:36.720
Okay, Brenda watched it with me the first time a couple years ago, and had no idea Colin Farrell was not American.
00:09:36.879 --> 00:09:37.039
Yeah.
00:09:37.200 --> 00:09:37.679
You didn't?
00:09:37.919 --> 00:09:42.879
At that when I when you watched in the years that I spent watching that movie growing up, which why was I watching that as a child?
00:09:43.200 --> 00:09:43.440
I don't know.
00:09:43.600 --> 00:09:45.679
That was a fucking scary ass movie, actually.
00:09:45.840 --> 00:09:46.639
It is such a good one.
00:09:46.720 --> 00:09:48.639
And I imagine how cheap it was to shoot that.
00:09:48.799 --> 00:09:49.039
Exactly.
00:09:49.279 --> 00:09:49.759
Just one location.
00:09:50.159 --> 00:09:50.720
One location.
00:09:50.879 --> 00:09:52.559
And this is and this is the work brain.
00:09:52.639 --> 00:09:54.559
I'm just like one location, one set.
00:09:54.720 --> 00:09:55.279
Yeah.
00:09:55.519 --> 00:09:57.440
Like not even that much dressing to do.
00:09:57.519 --> 00:09:58.240
It's a phone booth.
00:09:58.399 --> 00:10:02.720
No, and he one costume, one costume that over time is destroyed.
00:10:02.879 --> 00:10:03.279
Yep.
00:10:03.440 --> 00:10:10.879
And so I mean, because even the the background of when he's making these phone calls to like his theater and stuff could be green screen.
00:10:11.039 --> 00:10:11.679
Could be green screen.
00:10:11.840 --> 00:10:12.559
Could be green screen.
00:10:13.039 --> 00:10:15.759
Like she could she could have been behind the building that they were filming.
00:10:16.000 --> 00:10:16.559
Like it's crazy.
00:10:16.799 --> 00:10:18.879
Must have been the most we have to look it up after this.
00:10:18.960 --> 00:10:21.919
I just I'm very curious how much their budget was and then how much they made.
00:10:22.080 --> 00:10:22.720
That's a great.
00:10:22.879 --> 00:10:23.679
Yeah, we'll look it up.
00:10:24.240 --> 00:10:25.120
We're gonna do it right now.
00:10:25.360 --> 00:10:27.600
Actually, yeah, Brenda, will you look it up, please?
00:10:28.480 --> 00:10:30.480
I'm like, how efficient was that movie?
00:10:30.720 --> 00:10:32.240
That's how we need to be shooting everything.
00:10:32.559 --> 00:10:33.279
Honestly.
00:10:33.600 --> 00:10:34.879
But no, not anymore.
00:10:35.039 --> 00:10:38.639
Now we're shooting like the Odyssey on 70 millimeter.
00:10:40.559 --> 00:10:41.519
Tell me, Brenda.
00:10:42.159 --> 00:10:46.399
Well, the AI overview did say that it cost$13 million.
00:10:46.960 --> 00:10:49.759
Oh but it made$97.
00:10:50.399 --> 00:10:50.559
Oh.
00:10:50.879 --> 00:10:55.440
Yeah, so the$13$3 million really I feel like isn't that much.
00:10:57.759 --> 00:10:58.799
And Keef Sutherland.
00:11:03.759 --> 00:11:06.480
So like$13 million back then is a lot more.
00:11:08.159 --> 00:11:08.559
That's true.
00:11:08.960 --> 00:11:09.200
Inflation.
00:11:09.440 --> 00:11:10.320
Inflation, a recession.
00:11:10.399 --> 00:11:11.440
Yep, it's true, it's true, it's true.
00:11:11.759 --> 00:11:13.120
24 years ago.
00:11:14.080 --> 00:11:15.200
How old was I?
00:11:17.039 --> 00:11:17.759
12?
00:11:19.840 --> 00:11:21.440
I saw that when I was 12.
00:11:21.840 --> 00:11:23.279
I was nine?
00:11:23.759 --> 00:11:24.960
You saw that when you were nine.
00:11:25.120 --> 00:11:26.799
Yeah, and I was eating that shit up too.
00:11:26.879 --> 00:11:27.840
We had it on DVD.
00:11:28.240 --> 00:11:29.840
Was it R or PG 13?
00:11:31.279 --> 00:11:33.039
Yeah, definitely rated R.
00:11:33.120 --> 00:11:33.600
Yeah.
00:11:34.000 --> 00:11:44.159
Because he made he made Kiefer Sutherland made Colin Farrell call his wife and say, I wanted to fuck her.
00:11:44.480 --> 00:11:45.200
Just like that.
00:11:45.279 --> 00:11:50.720
I remember because I was like, dang, this guy really taken L after L.
00:11:51.120 --> 00:11:54.480
Locked in a phone booth, cheating on his little wife.
00:11:54.799 --> 00:11:55.919
Cheating on his little wife.
00:11:56.159 --> 00:12:00.399
His little wife, his little girlfriend shows up, they're on opposite ends of the street.
00:12:00.480 --> 00:12:03.440
They make eye contact with because he said that's her.
00:12:03.600 --> 00:12:03.759
Yeah.
00:12:03.919 --> 00:12:04.559
And that's her.
00:12:04.639 --> 00:12:06.240
That is humiliating.
00:12:06.480 --> 00:12:07.440
That is humiliating.
00:12:07.600 --> 00:12:08.720
Well, men are trash.
00:12:08.879 --> 00:12:09.600
So yeah.
00:12:10.000 --> 00:12:10.720
What are you gonna do?
00:12:10.879 --> 00:12:18.320
Anyway, I guess we should talk about all the things that have been happening in the last couple of weeks because it's been a it's been a busy couple of weeks.
00:12:18.480 --> 00:12:21.759
It's been a busy couple weeks, it's been a crazy couple weeks.
00:12:22.000 --> 00:12:26.399
You know, the W, there's a lot, there's a lot happening on and off the court.
00:12:26.720 --> 00:12:28.639
Let's uh let's start.
00:12:28.879 --> 00:12:30.639
Yeah, let's get into around the W.
00:12:31.279 --> 00:12:35.279
Okay, so around the W, let's uh talk about two.
00:12:35.919 --> 00:12:41.279
I mean, okay, maybe not one of them isn't so major, but two respectfully, respectfully, respectfully.
00:12:41.440 --> 00:12:41.840
Respectfully.
00:12:42.000 --> 00:12:43.120
It's just that when we compare them.
00:12:43.200 --> 00:12:49.440
So Rebecca Allen and Neka Oguma Key announced that they are both retiring after this season.
00:12:49.679 --> 00:12:52.320
Notably, Rebecca Allen is 32 years old.
00:12:52.399 --> 00:12:56.320
She is my age, so all this to say, I could have been in the W.
00:12:56.639 --> 00:12:56.960
I know.
00:12:57.120 --> 00:12:59.759
And Eliza could have really been in the W.
00:13:00.000 --> 00:13:00.320
Yeah.
00:13:00.480 --> 00:13:03.919
Like, especially tall girl would have been tall girl in out there.
00:13:04.159 --> 00:13:11.039
You know, just as a quick side note, Rebecca Gardner was um drafted into the W at 31.
00:13:11.840 --> 00:13:12.320
What?
00:13:12.559 --> 00:13:13.200
Yeah.
00:13:13.919 --> 00:13:15.360
Are you saying there's a chance?
00:13:15.600 --> 00:13:17.360
Yeah, I'm saying there's a chance.
00:13:17.600 --> 00:13:19.360
Don't close the door, you know?
00:13:19.600 --> 00:13:20.399
Yeah, okay.
00:13:20.559 --> 00:13:24.879
So then once we wrap up the podcast, Eliza, get in the fucking gym.
00:13:25.279 --> 00:13:25.600
Okay.
00:13:25.919 --> 00:13:27.120
Start putting shots up.
00:13:27.279 --> 00:13:28.799
Game ready shooting every Thursday.
00:13:28.960 --> 00:13:29.279
Yeah, baby.
00:13:29.360 --> 00:13:30.799
You need to get some muscle on those bones.
00:13:31.039 --> 00:13:32.480
Because they're making millions now.
00:13:32.639 --> 00:13:36.799
They're making millions now, and then you can make millions, and then I don't have to work anymore.
00:13:36.960 --> 00:13:37.840
Exactly.
00:13:38.159 --> 00:13:42.399
Like, it's just a couple sacrifices, Eliza.
00:13:42.960 --> 00:13:49.919
Um, yeah, well, Beck Beck Allen, she's 32, 11 seasons in the league.
00:13:50.159 --> 00:13:51.039
She's 33.
00:13:51.200 --> 00:13:52.399
Did she turn 33 already?
00:13:52.559 --> 00:13:52.720
Yeah.
00:13:52.879 --> 00:13:53.840
Is she a 93 baby?
00:13:54.080 --> 00:13:54.799
She's 92, baby.
00:13:55.120 --> 00:13:55.679
When's her birthday?
00:13:56.639 --> 00:13:57.360
November 6th.
00:13:57.519 --> 00:13:58.480
Oh wow, it's very close to me.
00:13:58.639 --> 00:13:59.200
Oh my gosh.
00:13:59.279 --> 00:13:59.679
I'm sorry.
00:13:59.840 --> 00:14:00.240
She's in her.
00:14:01.200 --> 00:14:02.080
She's a twin.
00:14:02.480 --> 00:14:02.720
Wait.
00:14:02.879 --> 00:14:03.759
This should wait.
00:14:04.000 --> 00:14:05.679
Did we bring this up in our twins episode?
00:14:05.840 --> 00:14:06.240
Yeah, we did.
00:14:06.320 --> 00:14:06.480
We did.
00:14:06.799 --> 00:14:07.120
Oh, we did?
00:14:08.080 --> 00:14:09.039
Yeah, we did.
00:14:09.120 --> 00:14:09.519
It's a boy.
00:14:09.679 --> 00:14:10.080
He's a boy.
00:14:10.320 --> 00:14:10.799
Is it Robert?
00:14:11.039 --> 00:14:11.679
Oh, it's a boy.
00:14:11.919 --> 00:14:13.039
Is it Robert?
00:14:14.159 --> 00:14:15.759
Is it Robert Allen?
00:14:18.159 --> 00:14:20.159
Okay, so she's actually at 33.
00:14:20.240 --> 00:14:21.519
She has a twin named Chris.
00:14:21.679 --> 00:14:22.639
Is it Christopher?
00:14:22.960 --> 00:14:23.360
Probably.
00:14:23.600 --> 00:14:24.240
Christopher.
00:14:24.399 --> 00:14:25.039
Christopher?
00:14:25.200 --> 00:14:25.360
Okay.
00:14:25.440 --> 00:14:27.360
She played 11 seasons in the W.
00:14:27.440 --> 00:14:29.200
She was drafted in 2015.
00:14:29.440 --> 00:14:31.919
I'm pretty certain by the New York Liberty.
00:14:32.559 --> 00:14:38.720
She's played for The Liberty, The Sun, Phoenix, and Chicago.
00:14:38.960 --> 00:14:43.600
Notably known for saying that Chicago is shit.
00:14:43.759 --> 00:14:44.159
Yeah.
00:14:44.399 --> 00:14:46.559
They share the locker room with the public.
00:14:46.639 --> 00:14:48.720
And then she returned to the Liberty.
00:14:48.960 --> 00:14:51.679
And she was stinking it up to start out.
00:14:51.759 --> 00:14:55.200
And then ever since she said she was retiring, she was hooking up.
00:14:55.279 --> 00:14:56.559
She said, fuck it, I'm retiring.
00:14:56.720 --> 00:14:57.440
Go out with a bang.
00:14:57.600 --> 00:14:57.679
Yeah.
00:14:57.759 --> 00:15:00.080
She's like, this is my last chance to prove myself.
00:15:00.320 --> 00:15:01.279
She wants a chip.
00:15:01.440 --> 00:15:03.840
And she's not gonna get it, probably.
00:15:04.080 --> 00:15:06.639
But like, and that's nothing to say about her.
00:15:06.720 --> 00:15:10.559
It's just that I just don't think that that's our trajectory this year, but we'll talk about that more later.
00:15:11.360 --> 00:15:16.720
But really, sick, I mean like a decade plus in the in the league.
00:15:17.120 --> 00:15:20.399
She made it to the new CBA, so hopefully she's getting a little bit more money.
00:15:21.600 --> 00:15:24.000
And I wonder what she will do after.
00:15:25.279 --> 00:15:27.440
Maybe do you think she'll be back to Australia?
00:15:27.679 --> 00:15:29.519
Yeah, but do you think she's gonna like coach?
00:15:29.679 --> 00:15:32.639
Do you think she's gonna like front office?
00:15:32.879 --> 00:15:33.360
I don't know.
00:15:33.519 --> 00:15:37.919
Do you think if so if she retires from the W, does that mean that she won't play in Australia either?
00:15:38.320 --> 00:15:40.559
No, I think that she could probably still play, right?
00:15:40.639 --> 00:15:42.799
Like salary this year is 350k.
00:15:43.360 --> 00:15:44.960
Base salary 350k?
00:15:45.120 --> 00:15:45.519
Not terrible.
00:15:47.919 --> 00:15:52.320
I mean, that's better than the fucking 90,000 she was probably making last year.
00:15:52.879 --> 00:15:56.559
Yeah, I mean, pretty pretty good come up.
00:15:57.679 --> 00:16:00.799
But I I do feel like the way she's playing now, like she could have bought it.
00:16:00.879 --> 00:16:01.039
I know.
00:16:01.120 --> 00:16:01.919
I'm like, do you want to do more?
00:16:02.240 --> 00:16:03.919
I was gonna say, do you want to stay on for one more year?
00:16:04.000 --> 00:16:05.039
But she might retract.
00:16:05.519 --> 00:16:06.320
She might retract the city.
00:16:07.759 --> 00:16:08.480
Like Serena.
00:16:08.639 --> 00:16:08.960
Yep.
00:16:09.120 --> 00:16:10.480
And who else did that?
00:16:10.799 --> 00:16:11.279
I don't know.
00:16:11.519 --> 00:16:12.159
Someone else did that.
00:16:12.559 --> 00:16:16.960
We don't have to talk about Serena, but like that really annoyed me because it made such a big deal.
00:16:17.120 --> 00:16:20.320
I was emotional about your retiring, and you're like, just kidding.
00:16:20.480 --> 00:16:20.960
I'm back.
00:16:21.200 --> 00:16:24.879
And now we gotta go through it again when you really re please, please don't piss me off.
00:16:25.039 --> 00:16:25.360
Okay.
00:16:25.759 --> 00:16:26.080
Okay.
00:16:26.399 --> 00:16:28.080
Anyway, let's talk about NICA.
00:16:28.240 --> 00:16:29.759
Yeah, you talk about NECA.
00:16:30.000 --> 00:16:32.879
NECA! NECA's 36, my age.
00:16:33.279 --> 00:16:34.080
Madame President.
00:16:34.399 --> 00:16:35.679
Yeah, Madame Prez.
00:16:36.000 --> 00:16:45.360
Um, she's spent 15 seasons in the W, 13 with the Sparks, and then just two with the set Seattle Storm before returning back to LA.
00:16:46.559 --> 00:16:55.360
She's a WNBA champion, she's been MVP, and of course, she's Madam President of the WNBP.
00:16:55.840 --> 00:16:56.480
Wait, what is it?
00:16:56.639 --> 00:16:57.120
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
00:16:57.360 --> 00:16:58.080
You were you had it.
00:16:58.559 --> 00:16:59.440
M B P A.
00:16:59.840 --> 00:17:00.080
Yeah.
00:17:00.799 --> 00:17:02.240
She's also number one pick.
00:17:02.399 --> 00:17:03.440
Where'd she go to school?
00:17:03.759 --> 00:17:04.559
Stanford?
00:17:05.200 --> 00:17:05.920
Did she?
00:17:06.240 --> 00:17:07.680
I think she might have gone to Stanford.
00:17:07.839 --> 00:17:09.359
Definitely a computer school.
00:17:09.680 --> 00:17:10.960
Computer or Stanford.
00:17:11.279 --> 00:17:11.920
Stanford.
00:17:12.079 --> 00:17:12.720
Stanford.
00:17:13.039 --> 00:17:13.599
Stanford.
00:17:13.839 --> 00:17:14.799
She went to Stanford.
00:17:15.039 --> 00:17:17.519
And she's from Nigeria, right?
00:17:17.680 --> 00:17:17.920
No.
00:17:18.240 --> 00:17:18.960
But Texas.
00:17:19.200 --> 00:17:20.000
Oh Houston.
00:17:20.319 --> 00:17:20.799
Houston, Texas.
00:17:20.960 --> 00:17:21.119
Houston.
00:17:21.279 --> 00:17:21.680
Hurston.
00:17:22.880 --> 00:17:23.599
She's from Hurston.
00:17:23.759 --> 00:17:24.559
Houston, Texas.
00:17:25.759 --> 00:17:26.640
Houston, Texas.
00:17:26.880 --> 00:17:35.200
I did see her on a clip of her on Sue Birds podcast, and she was like, I've been to Austin, and she was like, Of course you have.
00:17:35.440 --> 00:17:36.880
Like, eye roll.
00:17:37.839 --> 00:17:39.839
Because I mean who else is from Houston?
00:17:41.519 --> 00:17:42.720
Okay, I was like, thank God.
00:17:43.519 --> 00:17:45.119
You know who else?
00:17:45.599 --> 00:17:46.880
You know who else is from Houston?
00:17:47.039 --> 00:17:48.000
Kelly Roland.
00:17:48.480 --> 00:17:49.039
Her two.
00:17:49.759 --> 00:17:50.400
Her two.
00:17:50.799 --> 00:17:51.920
Not Destiny's child.
00:17:52.000 --> 00:17:53.599
No affiliation to Destiny's child.
00:17:53.680 --> 00:17:55.200
Who else is from Houston?
00:17:55.599 --> 00:17:55.920
Um.
00:17:57.200 --> 00:17:58.319
Hillary Duff.
00:17:58.480 --> 00:17:59.119
Oh shit, yeah.
00:17:59.599 --> 00:18:00.240
I didn't know that.
00:18:00.480 --> 00:18:02.480
Eliza's even wearing her on the shirt.
00:18:02.640 --> 00:18:03.599
Because when you were in Houston.
00:18:03.759 --> 00:18:06.160
I thought you were saying Bunny, because and I'm like, she's from Dallas.
00:18:06.319 --> 00:18:07.680
Yeah, I was born in Dallas.
00:18:08.079 --> 00:18:09.279
She's a Texanite.
00:18:09.680 --> 00:18:11.200
I only lived there for three years.
00:18:11.359 --> 00:18:13.440
And then I lived there for a few years in my choice.
00:18:14.319 --> 00:18:14.559
I know.
00:18:14.640 --> 00:18:16.160
Let me not have to talk about it.
00:18:16.480 --> 00:18:18.240
I feel like I'm malfunctioning.
00:18:18.400 --> 00:18:19.839
That's crazy.
00:18:20.319 --> 00:18:21.200
It wasn't my choice.
00:18:22.240 --> 00:18:24.559
And you didn't take anything from Dallas with you, so that's okay.
00:18:24.720 --> 00:18:25.200
No, no, no.
00:18:25.359 --> 00:18:26.480
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
00:18:26.799 --> 00:18:29.039
God, that would be worse than the Chiefs.
00:18:29.359 --> 00:18:30.799
I'm gonna be honest with you.
00:18:30.880 --> 00:18:32.880
That would be really fucking bad.
00:18:33.119 --> 00:18:33.599
Anyway.
00:18:33.839 --> 00:18:35.039
Anyway, we're moving on from that.
00:18:35.200 --> 00:18:36.799
Anyway, yeah, NECA, Madam President.
00:18:36.960 --> 00:18:37.519
Madam President.
00:18:37.680 --> 00:18:38.640
She got us some money.
00:18:38.799 --> 00:18:45.039
Yeah, I mean, everyone who says, oh, Caitlin Clark's the reason why the girls are getting paid.
00:18:45.200 --> 00:18:45.440
No.
00:18:45.519 --> 00:18:46.000
No, they're not.
00:18:46.079 --> 00:18:46.640
No, she's not.
00:18:46.720 --> 00:18:47.039
She's not.
00:18:47.119 --> 00:18:47.519
Computa.
00:18:47.680 --> 00:18:48.240
NECA is.
00:18:48.480 --> 00:18:48.640
Sorry.
00:18:48.880 --> 00:18:49.519
Computa.
00:18:50.079 --> 00:18:50.960
It's NECA.
00:18:51.440 --> 00:18:52.480
It is NECA.
00:18:52.880 --> 00:18:53.680
She's that girl.
00:18:53.759 --> 00:18:56.319
Also, I just feel like not for nothing.
00:18:56.400 --> 00:19:05.519
I do wonder if like Chinae, her younger sister, I guess like I assumed that NECA was younger because she was still playing.
00:19:06.640 --> 00:19:07.359
What a flex.
00:19:07.599 --> 00:19:08.079
What a flex.
00:19:08.720 --> 00:19:09.839
The older sister's still playing.
00:19:10.000 --> 00:19:10.640
Little little sister.
00:19:10.960 --> 00:19:12.240
I wonder why bumped her.
00:19:13.039 --> 00:19:16.640
I wonder if it was like injury reasons or you know, or whatever the case.
00:19:17.200 --> 00:19:23.920
And also like NECA is at like an elite tier of you know Hooper.
00:19:24.000 --> 00:19:29.039
Not that, not that Chine isn't good or wasn't good, but like NECA is like on a different to be honest.
00:19:29.119 --> 00:19:31.039
I don't know China's game at all.
00:19:31.359 --> 00:19:31.920
Yeah, I know.
00:19:32.000 --> 00:19:34.000
It's like it's kind of like Venus and Serena.
00:19:34.160 --> 00:19:34.720
Yeah.
00:19:34.960 --> 00:19:41.839
Like Venus is still good, but Serena is like, yeah, it she's a different level, a different tier.
00:19:42.000 --> 00:19:43.680
And also I feel like same thing.
00:19:43.759 --> 00:19:45.440
Like Serena retired, Venus.
00:19:45.519 --> 00:19:49.839
Well, like, because Venus still plays mostly doubles, but she still plays.
00:19:49.920 --> 00:19:52.160
I don't know if she's like officially retired anyway.
00:19:52.880 --> 00:19:53.119
Yeah.
00:19:53.279 --> 00:19:53.920
So injuries.
00:19:55.200 --> 00:19:56.240
I love her as a collector.
00:19:56.559 --> 00:19:58.240
Yeah, because she knows what the fuck she's talking about.
00:19:58.400 --> 00:20:01.440
I think players make the best color commentators too.
00:20:01.519 --> 00:20:06.000
Like, it's the same way that I think it's ridiculous that Stephen A.
00:20:06.240 --> 00:20:12.400
Smith has a show where he gets to talk about sports that he never played and was never good at, but then JJ Reddick will go.
00:20:12.640 --> 00:20:14.559
This was before he was coaching for the Lakers.
00:20:14.640 --> 00:20:21.440
He like went and had done a couple guest spots on first take, and it's just like so like he knows what the fuck he's talking about.
00:20:21.599 --> 00:20:23.200
The media don't know what they're talking about.
00:20:23.440 --> 00:20:23.759
Yeah.
00:20:23.920 --> 00:20:25.039
Like it's crazy.
00:20:25.200 --> 00:20:26.559
Are we the media?
00:20:27.119 --> 00:20:27.440
Yeah.
00:20:27.599 --> 00:20:27.920
Shit.
00:20:28.240 --> 00:20:29.039
We guys also play.
00:20:29.200 --> 00:20:30.000
Yeah, but we also play.
00:20:30.240 --> 00:20:30.880
We also play.
00:20:31.200 --> 00:20:31.920
Thanks, Brenda.
00:20:32.079 --> 00:20:33.039
Thanks, computer.
00:20:33.839 --> 00:20:35.440
Yeah, it's not professionally.
00:20:35.519 --> 00:20:35.759
Yeah.
00:20:35.920 --> 00:20:36.960
Not but we still play.
00:20:37.119 --> 00:20:38.079
Like we actually play the game.
00:20:38.160 --> 00:20:38.559
Stephen A.
00:20:38.640 --> 00:20:39.839
Smith is not in the rec centers.
00:20:40.000 --> 00:20:40.319
Yeah, no.
00:20:40.720 --> 00:20:41.039
Stephen A.
00:20:41.119 --> 00:20:42.000
Smith is nowhere near.
00:20:42.400 --> 00:20:45.920
But yeah, I mean, what a what a storied career for NECA.
00:20:46.079 --> 00:20:51.279
Actually, we'll talk about like playoffs a little bit more later, but the Sparks were also just eliminated.
00:20:51.680 --> 00:21:00.960
That makes me sad because I feel like I wanted her to go out with like, you know, a bigger like she had just come back to the Sparks this season.
00:21:02.559 --> 00:21:04.079
And they they kind of still get it.
00:21:04.319 --> 00:21:06.559
I just don't understand what happened with Kelsey either.
00:21:06.960 --> 00:21:12.000
I I also wondered that I thought it was very curious that they would trade her.
00:21:12.319 --> 00:21:21.440
Um and somehow, like, it also feels like at the same time that Kelsey Plum has almost always been a Mercury.
00:21:21.519 --> 00:21:22.079
I don't know why.
00:21:22.160 --> 00:21:27.680
I know that feels that's like strange to say, but I feel like seeing her in the uniform, I'm like, oh, she's played there forever.
00:21:27.839 --> 00:21:28.079
Really?
00:21:28.240 --> 00:21:30.400
Like, I don't know, like she's supposed to be there or something.
00:21:30.480 --> 00:21:31.039
I don't know.
00:21:31.279 --> 00:21:31.759
I don't know.
00:21:32.079 --> 00:21:33.200
They needed her.
00:21:33.440 --> 00:21:35.200
Is she playing right now or is she injured?
00:21:35.359 --> 00:21:38.960
I think she's been playing on and off um limited minutes because of her injury.
00:21:39.039 --> 00:21:39.680
But like, I don't know.
00:21:39.759 --> 00:21:41.680
I guess the the sparks are really surprising.
00:21:41.759 --> 00:21:47.200
It feels like they blew shit up for no reason because, like, why would you trade Rakia Jackson to Chicago?
00:21:47.359 --> 00:21:47.519
Right.
00:21:48.079 --> 00:21:52.960
Like every every game, I feel like she was getting better, and then she started out the season with a bang.
00:21:53.039 --> 00:21:59.359
Unfortunate, she tore her ACL, but like that, she's a solid player, can't bring coming back from injury.
00:22:00.400 --> 00:22:01.200
Uh Azare.
00:22:01.839 --> 00:22:02.319
I don't know.
00:22:02.400 --> 00:22:04.720
I thought like I was looking forward to seeing them.
00:22:04.960 --> 00:22:06.480
Well, Azare is now in Chicago too.
00:22:06.640 --> 00:22:07.680
No, I know, but that's why they treat.
00:22:07.920 --> 00:22:08.319
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
00:22:08.720 --> 00:22:10.319
But like they had a solid squad.
00:22:10.640 --> 00:22:10.960
I know.
00:22:11.039 --> 00:22:11.359
I don't know.
00:22:11.680 --> 00:22:13.039
Derrick, Ray Braille.
00:22:13.920 --> 00:22:16.160
Yeah, I I it that didn't make a lot of sense.
00:22:16.400 --> 00:22:16.559
No.
00:22:16.799 --> 00:22:18.079
Like what happened there?
00:22:18.400 --> 00:22:18.799
I don't know.
00:22:18.880 --> 00:22:20.720
I have questions about Lynn Roberts.
00:22:21.200 --> 00:22:21.839
Same.
00:22:22.240 --> 00:22:23.279
So I don't know.
00:22:23.359 --> 00:22:26.400
But we essentially had higher hopes for the Sparks.
00:22:26.480 --> 00:22:28.559
And maybe NECA did too.
00:22:28.720 --> 00:22:31.759
But something tells me she went back knowing that she was gonna retire.
00:22:31.920 --> 00:22:32.319
Yeah.
00:22:32.480 --> 00:22:34.799
Like she was never gonna go to Minnesota.
00:22:34.960 --> 00:22:38.240
She was always gonna go back to LA to end her career there.
00:22:38.480 --> 00:22:44.960
I could see her transitioning into like uh some a position at the league or in the league.
00:22:45.200 --> 00:22:45.359
Yeah.
00:22:45.519 --> 00:22:46.480
Within Commission.
00:22:46.799 --> 00:22:48.480
I was gonna say maybe she takes Kathy's spot.
00:22:48.880 --> 00:22:49.119
Please.
00:22:49.359 --> 00:22:49.920
Commission?
00:22:50.240 --> 00:22:50.880
If she wants it.
00:22:51.119 --> 00:22:52.240
Because who knows if she does.
00:22:52.799 --> 00:22:53.599
She'd be good at it.
00:22:53.759 --> 00:23:04.240
I mean she's obviously good at negotiating and dealing with a bunch of and it would probably be helpful to have a player in that position, but who knows if Adam Silver would ever allow it.
00:23:04.640 --> 00:23:06.079
Because he's a fucking hater.
00:23:06.640 --> 00:23:07.440
He needs to go too.
00:23:07.519 --> 00:23:07.680
Yeah.
00:23:08.160 --> 00:23:09.200
He looks like Nazareth.
00:23:12.079 --> 00:23:12.400
Okay.
00:23:13.440 --> 00:23:18.000
So another notable update AZ Fudd is out for the season.
00:23:18.160 --> 00:23:25.599
She had some right knee soreness that ended up leading to an anthroscopic knee surgery that essentially is taking her out for the rest of the season.
00:23:25.839 --> 00:23:28.400
So what does this mean for her in the offseason?
00:23:28.640 --> 00:23:33.279
She posted kind of like this hey, like I'm sure everyone saw at this point.
00:23:33.440 --> 00:23:38.400
Like she's not a she's not a stranger to injury and like the recovery and stuff.
00:23:38.880 --> 00:23:42.640
So I do feel like she'll come back stronger, but that's kind of shitty.
00:23:43.200 --> 00:23:43.759
Very shitty.
00:23:44.240 --> 00:23:48.160
Also, I thought anthroscopic was supposed to be like, right?
00:23:48.400 --> 00:23:48.640
Yeah.
00:23:49.440 --> 00:23:52.640
So I'm like, what was why is it season ending?
00:23:52.960 --> 00:23:53.359
I don't know.
00:23:55.680 --> 00:23:55.839
Yeah.
00:23:56.000 --> 00:24:00.880
Like I wonder if that's the same like leg that she tore her ACL in.
00:24:00.960 --> 00:24:01.440
Yeah, maybe.
00:24:02.079 --> 00:24:07.680
I mean, I don't I don't know for sure, but I think that I mean, I think I already felt this way.
00:24:07.839 --> 00:24:15.519
I I always thought Live Miles was gonna run away with rookie of the year, but yeah, now it's for sure because I feel like they can't even push that narrative anymore.
00:24:15.680 --> 00:24:15.920
Right.
00:24:16.079 --> 00:24:22.160
Of like Liv versus AZ, because even though I I feel like it wasn't really legit.
00:24:22.319 --> 00:24:22.640
Yeah.
00:24:22.880 --> 00:24:25.200
Like, but now there's no who's competing?
00:24:25.359 --> 00:24:27.039
Like who who's gonna come second?
00:24:27.200 --> 00:24:28.160
I guess AZ.
00:24:28.640 --> 00:24:30.960
Like no, you know who could come second?
00:24:31.200 --> 00:24:32.480
Sydney Taylor.
00:24:32.720 --> 00:24:33.759
Oh shit.
00:24:33.920 --> 00:24:34.720
That's true.
00:24:34.880 --> 00:24:37.039
Cause she's having Oh, Pauline.
00:24:37.200 --> 00:24:37.920
Or Pauline.
00:24:38.400 --> 00:24:41.839
Pauline has also been doing yeah, she's also been doing really well.
00:24:42.079 --> 00:24:45.839
And I really like what I've been seeing from Flaget, but I don't know.
00:24:46.000 --> 00:24:48.799
I'm like, who else is like a notable rookie?
00:24:49.440 --> 00:24:50.079
That's a good question.
00:24:50.720 --> 00:24:51.680
Johnson injured?
00:24:51.839 --> 00:24:52.079
Yeah.
00:24:52.240 --> 00:24:53.200
Where was she yesterday?
00:24:53.440 --> 00:24:55.200
She was on the bench and she was suited up.
00:24:55.279 --> 00:24:55.359
Yeah.
00:24:56.319 --> 00:24:57.359
They should have put her in.
00:24:57.519 --> 00:24:59.759
Yeah, because I know she would have boxed out, but it's fine.
00:24:59.839 --> 00:25:00.480
We'll get there later.
00:25:00.559 --> 00:25:01.359
We'll get there later.
00:25:01.680 --> 00:25:04.720
No, no extra airtime on the Confederacy right now.
00:25:05.200 --> 00:25:08.160
Um yeah, there's there's a special special moment for that.
00:25:08.319 --> 00:25:09.359
Yeah, so I don't know.
00:25:09.519 --> 00:25:12.079
I I think Olivia is running away with it.
00:25:13.359 --> 00:25:16.480
Do we think she's gonna get ROI and MVP?
00:25:17.279 --> 00:25:21.119
I think I don't know.
00:25:21.440 --> 00:25:24.000
Because overall, Asia is still true.
00:25:24.640 --> 00:25:26.880
I mean, she's fucking Asia Wilson.
00:25:27.119 --> 00:25:37.359
If now, if Asia wasn't in the league, if Asia was not a factor, like I would probably say yes.
00:25:37.839 --> 00:25:38.880
I don't know.
00:25:39.119 --> 00:25:40.160
I don't know though.
00:25:40.319 --> 00:25:45.119
I if Asia got it this year, that would be five times in a row.
00:25:45.599 --> 00:25:51.680
I just like it's just so unfortunate, I feel like, for people to be playing at the same time as her, and she's not even in her prime.
00:25:51.920 --> 00:25:54.960
I know she's only she just turned 30, or she's not even 30.
00:25:55.200 --> 00:25:56.720
I think she maybe is 29.
00:25:56.960 --> 00:25:59.680
Like to think about how NECA's retiring at 36.
00:25:59.759 --> 00:26:02.480
Like, we've got at least seven more years.
00:26:02.960 --> 00:26:05.359
At least, like, so I don't know.
00:26:05.680 --> 00:26:07.920
I think Liv will be a close second.
00:26:08.160 --> 00:26:14.480
Um Kelsey Mitchell, I think, is also like a god tier kind of player.
00:26:14.640 --> 00:26:19.279
Like, she's like, there's not there's not many players, in my opinion, in the league that are god tier.
00:26:19.440 --> 00:26:27.119
There's like for me, god tier, elite, good, and then you know, you've got the lower ranks there.
00:26:27.200 --> 00:26:32.400
But if if I was gonna rank elite elite talent, I would say Asia for sure.
00:26:32.720 --> 00:26:35.759
I would even say point god, yeah, elite.
00:26:35.920 --> 00:26:40.640
Um, and I would I would also put Olivia Miles in that category.
00:26:40.799 --> 00:26:45.839
Like she's it's like she came in like this was another college season, which is insane.
00:26:45.920 --> 00:26:58.079
And she did that, and I understand like she has like Courtney Williams, Kayla McBride, and and other other vets around her, but like for her to be doing what she's doing without fee, I don't know.
00:26:58.319 --> 00:27:02.079
It's fee and now with fee, yeah.
00:27:02.799 --> 00:27:04.240
I mean, she's really fucking good.
00:27:04.400 --> 00:27:05.519
Yeah, that's what I mean.
00:27:05.680 --> 00:27:06.640
So I don't know.
00:27:06.720 --> 00:27:10.720
I'm not saying it's impossible for her to get rookie of the year and MVP.
00:27:10.799 --> 00:27:12.319
The last time that happened was Candace Parker.
00:27:12.480 --> 00:27:16.240
I know, which is crazy because it was like, I don't know, like oh three or something.
00:27:16.480 --> 00:27:19.039
Wow, it was something crazy, yeah.
00:27:19.359 --> 00:27:22.799
But again, let's not give any more time to the Confederacy.
00:27:22.960 --> 00:27:25.279
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
00:27:25.839 --> 00:27:26.160
Okay.
00:27:26.720 --> 00:27:35.119
So also in uh in other news, the Tempo unveiled new mascots, a sturdle, and a bunny.
00:27:36.240 --> 00:27:41.359
You know, it's like that that auntie who has a friend that comes over for every holiday.
00:27:42.079 --> 00:27:42.640
Us.
00:27:42.960 --> 00:27:43.359
Yeah.
00:27:43.839 --> 00:27:46.319
Well, no, not us, because we're a different generation.
00:27:46.400 --> 00:27:47.519
Like, we'll be like, this is my partner.
00:27:47.920 --> 00:27:51.599
Wait, did you know the the stertle their pronouns?
00:27:51.759 --> 00:27:52.960
Yeah, they're non-binary.
00:27:53.200 --> 00:27:54.240
She she she they.
00:27:54.640 --> 00:27:55.359
Oh my god.
00:27:55.519 --> 00:27:56.400
That's so cute.
00:27:56.559 --> 00:27:57.200
I love that.
00:27:57.440 --> 00:28:06.640
It people have been saying that the the turtle looks like uh like the uh ch the twins' mom, Lil and Phil from the Rugrats.
00:28:07.119 --> 00:28:13.200
Wait, like exactly the headband, the hair, yeah, the little smirky hair for sure.
00:28:13.680 --> 00:28:15.599
Yeah, just incredible.
00:28:15.839 --> 00:28:25.680
Also relevant to oh, they also unveiled these mascots the same night that the fever were in town, which is good, yeah, really funny.
00:28:26.000 --> 00:28:32.160
Also, Sandy's team is not making the playoffs for the first time in her head coaching career.
00:28:32.480 --> 00:28:40.559
It's really sad, which is crazy because notably she did make the playoffs last season with the New York Liberty when they had a piece of lint and a and a penny.
00:28:40.880 --> 00:28:41.440
You know what?
00:28:41.519 --> 00:28:51.279
Yeah, it makes me s like even more mad that Jonathan Cole fired her because think about where we would be right now.
00:28:51.440 --> 00:28:55.599
I feel like we'd be higher on the We'd probably be a little higher.
00:28:55.680 --> 00:28:56.799
We probably wouldn't have signed Satu.
00:28:57.519 --> 00:28:59.279
We wouldn't have had Satu.
00:28:59.680 --> 00:29:00.400
Oops.
00:29:00.799 --> 00:29:01.519
That was mistake.
00:29:01.680 --> 00:29:07.119
And we probably would have developed Annalee Maley into 100% a solid player because you know the Aussie connection there.
00:29:07.279 --> 00:29:07.599
Yeah.
00:29:07.839 --> 00:29:08.559
And you know what?
00:29:08.640 --> 00:29:11.039
We probably would have drafted Alana Smith.
00:29:12.559 --> 00:29:13.839
I think Elk and Dream.
00:29:14.079 --> 00:29:15.119
Oh my god.
00:29:15.599 --> 00:29:19.039
It pisses me off because I'm like, Alana Smith is not happy.
00:29:19.200 --> 00:29:20.960
She's not happy and she's not happy.
00:29:21.359 --> 00:29:22.240
She should be with us.
00:29:22.720 --> 00:29:23.440
She should be with us.
00:29:23.920 --> 00:29:27.279
And Sandy wouldn't have had this happen to her career if she had stayed.
00:29:28.079 --> 00:29:29.200
She'd be in the playoffs.
00:29:29.519 --> 00:29:30.400
I think so.
00:29:30.880 --> 00:29:31.920
That's all I'm saying.
00:29:32.319 --> 00:29:33.039
I think so.
00:29:33.200 --> 00:29:37.519
Which we can talk about the teams that have clinched playoffs thus far.
00:29:38.079 --> 00:29:38.640
Let's do that.
00:29:38.799 --> 00:29:43.759
And unfortunately, we haven't clinched yet as the Liberty, but I fear that we will.
00:29:44.000 --> 00:29:54.559
And I I just I don't know, maybe things will be different because you know Leo's back, but we and again we can talk about this more later.
00:29:54.640 --> 00:29:58.079
I just like I think the Liberty may need a full reset, but who knows?
00:29:58.160 --> 00:30:01.599
Maybe maybe my opinion's different after the fever game.
00:30:02.079 --> 00:30:05.440
I know that we moved up to sixth in the rankings.
00:30:05.680 --> 00:30:08.480
We were at eight or nine, so like we do have a lot of.
00:30:08.640 --> 00:30:10.400
I think we're gonna make it, I guess.
00:30:10.559 --> 00:30:16.240
Um, but the teams that have clinched Vegas, Minnesota, duh, duh.
00:30:16.400 --> 00:30:19.440
Golden State, notably, has clinched like butt cheeks.
00:30:19.599 --> 00:30:20.480
Yeah, duh.
00:30:20.880 --> 00:30:24.720
And then Indiana, and then Atlanta clinched last night.
00:30:24.799 --> 00:30:30.799
I think what's really fun about Atlanta is like it just really feels like a sisterhood.
00:30:30.880 --> 00:30:31.680
Like, I don't know.
00:30:31.839 --> 00:30:34.960
I we've said it before, but I do feel like that was the right move for Angel.
00:30:35.200 --> 00:30:35.359
Agree.
00:30:35.599 --> 00:30:38.000
I feel like that is exactly where she needs to be.
00:30:38.079 --> 00:30:43.920
And for the first time in her WNBA career, she is headed to the playoffs, which is very exciting.
00:30:44.160 --> 00:30:55.039
And you can just tell how tight-knit that group is because they're so hard on themselves, and usually it's like their teammates picking up, you know, the person who's feeling down.
00:30:55.119 --> 00:31:07.359
Like I know both Ryan and Angel felt really shitty about missing a couple of baskets uh to win their game against Indiana, and ever since then, Angel has really been on a tear.
00:31:07.839 --> 00:31:14.559
She's just scored 31 points, I'm pretty sure last night to clinch like she had a double double, a damn near triple double.
00:31:14.720 --> 00:31:17.279
Like, she's playing possessed right now.
00:31:17.680 --> 00:31:18.160
I'm glad.
00:31:18.799 --> 00:31:19.599
Yeah, I don't know.
00:31:19.839 --> 00:31:22.559
I feel like she's in a much better place also mentally.
00:31:22.960 --> 00:31:23.839
So I love that for her.
00:31:24.559 --> 00:31:25.759
I love that for her too.
00:31:26.799 --> 00:31:31.279
Then we have unfortunately more dildos.
00:31:31.680 --> 00:31:32.559
I saw that.
00:31:32.960 --> 00:31:33.920
What is going on?
00:31:34.240 --> 00:31:36.240
Why are why are they all why?
00:31:36.960 --> 00:31:37.839
Just tell me why.
00:31:38.400 --> 00:31:44.720
Yeah, I mean, the Chicago Skies home game against the Valkyries was interrupted in the third quarter on Friday.
00:31:44.880 --> 00:31:45.759
There were multiple sections.
00:31:46.319 --> 00:31:46.799
Multiple?
00:31:47.119 --> 00:31:47.599
Multiple.
00:31:47.759 --> 00:31:49.200
I think there were three total.
00:31:49.440 --> 00:31:50.400
Oh my god.
00:31:50.559 --> 00:31:51.119
Yeah.
00:31:51.440 --> 00:31:55.920
And it was actually like kind of fucking crazy.
00:31:56.000 --> 00:31:58.319
Like, how did how were they getting these in?
00:31:58.640 --> 00:32:00.000
Yeah, where are they putting them?
00:32:00.160 --> 00:32:02.720
Are they wearing like wearing them in their underwear?
00:32:03.039 --> 00:32:07.519
Like, I okay, let me just say last season.
00:32:07.839 --> 00:32:09.519
Or I remember it was happening.
00:32:09.839 --> 00:32:20.720
I was thinking in the front, but I was thinking also in the back, too, because uh and you know I'm not a huge fan of Natasha Cloud, but she was just like, you know, it's almost always a man.
00:32:20.880 --> 00:32:21.119
Yeah.
00:32:21.279 --> 00:32:24.000
And that's probably like one of the gayest things you can do.
00:32:24.079 --> 00:32:33.119
And it sounds like you have some things to work through because, first of all, how gay you gotta be to go into a fucking sex shop as a man.
00:32:33.359 --> 00:32:34.720
Also, dildos are expensive.
00:32:34.880 --> 00:32:35.039
Yeah.
00:32:35.200 --> 00:32:44.400
To buy a dildo, to transport it like to a to a basketball game where women are playing, and then you gotta smuggle it inside.
00:32:44.480 --> 00:32:45.920
It has to be up your ass.
00:32:46.079 --> 00:32:46.480
Yeah.
00:32:46.720 --> 00:32:47.279
Gay.
00:32:47.599 --> 00:32:51.599
Gay and and then you throw and then you throw it on the court?
00:32:51.839 --> 00:32:53.920
Like, what's what is going on?
00:32:54.400 --> 00:32:56.079
Like what is like what is the reason?
00:32:56.240 --> 00:32:56.960
What is the reason?
00:32:57.200 --> 00:32:58.880
Go to therapy instead.
00:32:59.119 --> 00:33:00.720
It is so weird.
00:33:00.880 --> 00:33:01.440
It's weird.
00:33:01.599 --> 00:33:02.079
It's really weird.
00:33:02.240 --> 00:33:03.279
Like, I don't even understand it.
00:33:03.359 --> 00:33:04.880
Like, what statement are you trying to make?
00:33:05.119 --> 00:33:08.960
Yeah, and if you're just trying to get attention, what is the reason?
00:33:09.119 --> 00:33:19.519
Yeah, I mean, and it happened um in Atlanta's game against the Sparks last week too, and Angel actually actually pointed out where I'm glad she saw.
00:33:19.680 --> 00:33:28.480
Yeah, someone says they've turned her into a meme, and they're just like me as a child pointing to where Dora lost her thing, and we're like, right here, right here.
00:33:29.599 --> 00:33:30.400
So I don't know.
00:33:30.720 --> 00:33:33.599
She's a girl's girl, and she's just yeah, yeah.
00:33:33.680 --> 00:33:35.039
That's yeah, she really is.
00:33:35.119 --> 00:33:36.960
Like also, yeah, it's dangerous.
00:33:37.119 --> 00:33:39.279
If that hits you in the head, you're concussed.
00:33:39.440 --> 00:33:41.279
And you know what I mean?
00:33:41.440 --> 00:33:42.319
What kind of dildo?
00:33:42.480 --> 00:33:46.400
What kind of like like lead dildos being they're heavy?
00:33:47.359 --> 00:33:51.759
I know, but like what do you mean, concuss?
00:33:52.160 --> 00:33:54.000
Drawn from the nose blade, right?
00:33:54.720 --> 00:33:56.319
Gravity is also exactly.
00:33:56.400 --> 00:34:05.359
You know how they say, like, if you drop a girl who cried concussed, concussed! But you know how they say if you drop a penny from the Empire State Building, you could kill somebody?
00:34:05.599 --> 00:34:06.319
Do they say that?
00:34:06.480 --> 00:34:09.280
Yeah, speed, the like the velocity.
00:34:09.599 --> 00:34:15.920
Yeah, holy shit! Yeah, oh my god, Bonnie, you didn't be knowing things! What is going on?
00:34:16.159 --> 00:34:19.679
So imagine a dildo coming from the 200s.
00:34:19.840 --> 00:34:21.280
Picture this a dildo.
00:34:22.079 --> 00:34:42.880
I guess my only uh and I didn't take physics in high school, I didn't have to somehow, but I guess when I think about it, like a penny flat, yeah, gaining speed, smooth, smooth, you know, exterior, dildo wagging in the air, you know what I mean?
00:34:42.960 --> 00:34:44.880
Like so how speed can it, yeah.
00:34:45.280 --> 00:34:50.079
If you throw it like a dot, yeah, if you throw it like a dot, it still has weight to it.
00:34:50.719 --> 00:34:55.280
I know, no, I know it has weight to it, but like, do we know what kind of dildos they were?
00:34:55.360 --> 00:34:58.079
Because they look like they were lime green with balls.
00:34:58.400 --> 00:35:06.000
And so, like, for me, then how you can't really throw that as a as a dart because then the back of it is just like a boomerang.
00:35:06.079 --> 00:35:18.960
It's like uh, I feel like it's like gaining speed because the weight of the back is like since we're not need a professional physicist to physicist to come explain how that works.
00:35:19.199 --> 00:35:29.280
Um, because for those not watching, I'm describing the movement as kind of like the inflatable, you know, the inflatable things that like car dealerships where it's just like in the wind.
00:35:29.360 --> 00:35:32.239
That's like, how is it gaining that speed?
00:35:32.480 --> 00:35:32.960
You know?
00:35:33.119 --> 00:35:39.599
Um, but imagine even if you weren't concussed, just getting smacked by one of those things, like flying out of the air.
00:35:39.679 --> 00:35:41.760
I mean I mean, you're definitely getting a bruise.
00:35:41.840 --> 00:35:43.360
You're definitely getting a bruise.
00:35:43.599 --> 00:35:48.800
Imagine like on your ego and your butt- your the tippy top of it gets you in the eye.
00:35:48.960 --> 00:35:51.760
Like, literally, no, I mean it is dangerous, in fact.
00:35:51.920 --> 00:35:54.559
I mean, we're not debating whether or not it's dangerous.
00:35:56.480 --> 00:36:02.000
Don't in the front! No without naming all the bottoms from a dildo getting hit.
00:36:02.239 --> 00:36:05.039
Like, don't let Jade Melvin get hit with a dildo in the mouth.
00:36:07.039 --> 00:36:08.559
She loses a tooth every other game.
00:36:10.000 --> 00:36:11.280
I'm dead.
00:36:11.440 --> 00:36:12.800
That's crazy.
00:36:13.039 --> 00:36:14.719
No one's gotten hit though.
00:36:15.039 --> 00:36:17.280
But you know, I think people have been it's like landed.
00:36:17.360 --> 00:36:20.079
Didn't it land right in front of um someone shooting free throws?
00:36:20.159 --> 00:36:20.559
Who was it?
00:36:20.639 --> 00:36:22.000
I no, I think it definitely didn't.
00:36:22.400 --> 00:36:22.639
I don't know.
00:36:23.119 --> 00:36:26.639
The article I read said Cameron Brink kicked it away and then someone threw a towel on it.
00:36:26.960 --> 00:36:32.000
Well, I will tell you, the very first time it happened last season, I mean we were in charge of the Brenda was asleep.
00:36:32.559 --> 00:36:35.920
Brenda was asleep on the couch next to me, and it was a late game.
00:36:36.480 --> 00:36:36.960
You were asleep.
00:36:37.280 --> 00:36:38.719
No, I saw it.
00:36:39.679 --> 00:36:45.360
I saw it, you were asleep, but I'm but I only remember because I texted Danny and I said, Hey.
00:36:45.840 --> 00:36:49.760
No, I woke you up because I was rewinding and I was like, was that babe?
00:36:49.840 --> 00:36:51.440
You were literally asleep.
00:36:53.039 --> 00:36:54.719
She was literally asleep.
00:36:54.960 --> 00:37:02.320
She was literally because and I know that because I was adjusting my volume because I was like, babe, and then I looked over and your eyes were shut.
00:37:02.639 --> 00:37:03.199
Yeah.
00:37:03.440 --> 00:37:05.280
That's that's I'm I don't know.
00:37:05.360 --> 00:37:06.559
I kind of believe Brenda.
00:37:06.880 --> 00:37:07.760
I kind of believe Brenda.
00:37:08.639 --> 00:37:09.920
Amanda will do this all the time.
00:37:10.079 --> 00:37:11.360
She'll be like, I was never looking at the table.
00:37:11.519 --> 00:37:13.119
No, you do the thing the smallest thing.
00:37:13.280 --> 00:37:19.599
And I'll be like, no, we literally arrived at this time, and you saw this, and you saw that, and she's like, Oh, it's kind of coming back to me now.
00:37:19.840 --> 00:37:20.880
No, and and guess what?
00:37:20.960 --> 00:37:24.800
You know what that should tell you that this time it's not coming back to me because I was awake.
00:37:25.920 --> 00:37:35.760
Because I remember it was lime green, and then I rewound it because it felt it went under the seat, and the and the commentators were like, I'll just I'll just let you have this one so we can this is what I do.
00:37:35.840 --> 00:37:37.360
I'm like, okay, fine, I'll take the L.
00:37:37.679 --> 00:37:37.840
Right.
00:37:37.920 --> 00:37:39.039
No, I always take the L.
00:37:39.840 --> 00:37:54.000
So we're gonna keep talking about basketball and not about who's who saw it first because it was it was just crazy because I couldn't believe it happened, and then I had to go on social, and I think I went to the sports chat and everybody was like, or no, every I think most people were asleep.
00:37:54.159 --> 00:37:57.519
I think actually only one other person was just like, wait, I saw that.
00:37:57.599 --> 00:37:58.239
Did you see that?
00:37:58.400 --> 00:37:59.519
And I it was crazy.
00:37:59.760 --> 00:38:04.960
Yeah, no, we were in remember we were in Cherry Grove watching live the very first time it happened.
00:38:05.119 --> 00:38:05.920
Oh yeah, yeah, yeah.
00:38:06.480 --> 00:38:07.760
It was like a late game, wasn't it?
00:38:07.920 --> 00:38:08.880
It was like one of the 10 p.m.
00:38:08.960 --> 00:38:09.119
games.
00:38:09.440 --> 00:38:10.159
We were like, what was that?
00:38:10.239 --> 00:38:11.599
And then we're like, whoa.
00:38:12.320 --> 00:38:12.960
Yeah.
00:38:13.360 --> 00:38:19.119
Anyway, yeah, just stop doing it, stop throwing the fucking dildos.
00:38:19.280 --> 00:38:20.960
You can hurt someone in more ways than one.
00:38:21.039 --> 00:38:22.880
You can concuss them, you can get them in the eye.
00:38:23.039 --> 00:38:23.280
Awesome.
00:38:23.440 --> 00:38:24.400
What are you getting out of it?
00:38:24.559 --> 00:38:26.559
Also, like, why do you have it?
00:38:26.800 --> 00:38:29.840
Yeah, what did you bring it from your personal collection?
00:38:30.320 --> 00:38:31.760
Explain yourself.
00:38:32.079 --> 00:38:32.639
Fucking lose.
00:38:33.039 --> 00:38:41.599
And now that person, the one that Angel pointed out, is like banned from W NBA games, banned from NBA games, banned from like the whole arena.
00:38:41.760 --> 00:38:43.440
I'm like, why what was it worth it?
00:38:43.519 --> 00:38:44.960
You don't ever want to see a concert?
00:38:45.280 --> 00:38:48.159
Well, I actually have like a logistical question about that.
00:38:48.400 --> 00:38:51.440
If someone is banned, how are you banned?
00:38:51.519 --> 00:38:52.079
Like, how can you?
00:38:52.239 --> 00:38:53.920
I don't know, is it like a no-flies list?
00:38:54.159 --> 00:38:55.760
Like, but how can you enforce that?
00:38:55.840 --> 00:39:00.320
Because like I could buy a ticket and put it under someone else's name, they're not IDing you at the fucking door.
00:39:00.480 --> 00:39:00.719
I don't know.
00:39:00.800 --> 00:39:03.920
I feel like there's cameras everywhere now and they can see your face and in AI.
00:39:04.159 --> 00:39:12.480
But there's also legal consequences of like maybe if like if they don't catch you at the door, but if they catch you doing something else, that'd be more big conversation.
00:39:12.880 --> 00:39:14.639
Oh, they could probably press more charges.
00:39:20.880 --> 00:39:22.000
Yeah, that's crazy.
00:39:22.800 --> 00:39:30.239
I just like thought about it, and then when I saw that and I was just like, it's just like one time I got banned from Six Flags because you did?
00:39:30.480 --> 00:39:30.880
Yeah.
00:39:31.679 --> 00:39:33.039
Because you threw a dildo right now.
00:39:33.280 --> 00:39:37.920
No, I actually like I was escorted out like through the back, but I was with other people, but it was like something silly.
00:39:38.000 --> 00:39:41.280
Like they accused us of cutting in line, and I literally didn't cut in line.
00:39:41.920 --> 00:39:48.159
And they were like, and they literally escorted me out of Six Flags in New Jersey, and I was just like, I'm sorry, people cut in line all the time.
00:39:48.320 --> 00:39:53.360
No, and I literally was just like, You think I give a fuck about this goofy ass theme park in the middle of New Jersey?
00:39:53.519 --> 00:39:56.480
Like, I literally will not come back here out of my own volition.
00:39:56.960 --> 00:40:01.920
Like, sorry, like literally behind the rides, like with security, we literally escorted us out.
00:40:02.239 --> 00:40:05.039
Yeah, it must have been me and my cousins or something, but it was like kind of ridiculous.
00:40:05.440 --> 00:40:10.079
I would admit if there was wrongdoing, yeah, but I really don't think there was.
00:40:10.159 --> 00:40:11.599
It was so weird, anyway.
00:40:12.000 --> 00:40:13.920
Yeah, stop throwing the fucking dildos.
00:40:14.079 --> 00:40:15.679
Stop throwing the dildos, you guys.
00:40:15.920 --> 00:40:28.880
Yeah, and then maybe next episode we'll have a physicist on to tell us about how the velocity, the the possibility of how hard a dildo can fly.
00:40:29.119 --> 00:40:29.519
Yeah.
00:40:29.840 --> 00:40:32.960
And if you throw it like a floor, how hard a dildo can fly.
00:40:33.519 --> 00:40:36.079
Sounds like one of the most like word problems that you solve.
00:40:36.239 --> 00:40:36.400
Yeah.
00:40:36.639 --> 00:40:42.719
If you had a green dildo this size and this weight, how far would you travel if you throw it on?
00:40:42.880 --> 00:40:44.079
Oh, I'm sick.
00:40:45.119 --> 00:40:46.800
Honestly, that's what we need to know.
00:40:47.119 --> 00:40:49.199
The word problems were the worst ones, weren't they?
00:40:49.360 --> 00:40:52.559
They were they they purposefully confused you.
00:40:52.800 --> 00:40:56.239
And like it was like, honestly, the kids today would not be able to do it.
00:40:56.320 --> 00:40:58.000
They can't even fuck a recursive.
00:40:58.320 --> 00:41:00.079
Like it it it's crazy.
00:41:00.480 --> 00:41:01.360
Won't be ours.
00:41:01.679 --> 00:41:02.400
Oh my gosh.
00:41:02.559 --> 00:41:05.519
Okay, before we before we get into C Foam Spotlight.
00:41:05.679 --> 00:41:06.079
Yeah.
00:41:06.400 --> 00:41:11.199
I think one thing we haven't talked about is how Inez Cantor and uh who?
00:41:11.920 --> 00:41:13.599
He's uh he's an NBA player.
00:41:13.679 --> 00:41:15.840
Oh um, I'm pretty sure he's Israeli.
00:41:16.320 --> 00:41:20.079
Um he announced he hasn't played in the NBA in years.
00:41:20.320 --> 00:41:30.960
He announced that he's joining the WNBA as like uh, well, no men in like women's sports, you know, contributing to the whole anti-trans uh conversation.
00:41:31.199 --> 00:41:35.039
And first of all, like he's a fucking loser.
00:41:35.199 --> 00:41:40.880
I've like so I feel like some people have brought it up to me, like straight men and stuff, and they're like, I'm not gonna lie, that was kind of funny.
00:41:40.960 --> 00:41:41.679
I said, Why?
00:41:41.840 --> 00:41:43.440
I said, ain't shit funny about it?
00:41:43.519 --> 00:41:50.320
I said, what's funny about a grown man stirring up drama and trouble, like just to get attention?
00:41:50.480 --> 00:42:11.599
I said, actually, and for all of the men who are sitting here, like being so worried about being gay, and then attributing like all of these like feminine characteristics that they think are feminine characteristics, as like someone being gay, like by their own definition, then I would say NS Cancer is probably fucking gay, like if I were to use their definition of it, because why are you stirring the pot and being catty?
00:42:12.079 --> 00:42:17.360
It's really weird, and it's also just like are you that bored?
00:42:17.440 --> 00:42:22.320
Do you have really have nothing else going on that you're gonna make up this quote unquote joke?
00:42:23.119 --> 00:42:31.840
It's like yeah, and like it's just like it's literally not funny, it's not funny, and also it's not a real fucking problem.
00:42:32.000 --> 00:42:47.920
Like, I was gonna spend like a 24-second shot clock kind of talking about this, but like the the argument that no trans women belong in women's sports, like as a way to protect women's sports, you don't actually care about women's sports.
00:42:48.000 --> 00:42:51.039
Also, there's not a single trans woman in the WNBA.
00:42:51.199 --> 00:43:00.000
There's also not a single trans woman trying to play in the WMBA, and I bet I could count on two hands how many trans women play in college sports.
00:43:00.239 --> 00:43:07.920
I think I think I saw a statistic out of 500,000 NCAA athletes, there are 12.
00:43:08.159 --> 00:43:16.239
Yeah, like it's it's like a it's a non-argument, like it it's not real, it's not a real problem.
00:43:16.880 --> 00:43:40.400
And like ironically, like Sophie Cunningham, who again like bench player who has notably not performed well, she's just like a fucking loser, she's a nobody, like respectfully, like the couple of shots that she hits a game, she's wide open, and I'm like, Yeah, you probably should hit that.
00:43:40.480 --> 00:43:47.679
You're a professional women's basketball player, like she's not doing anything to like like she's not moving the needle, yeah.
00:43:47.920 --> 00:43:59.760
And so, like, obviously, like she was trying to appeal to one side of the political spectrum and get attention, and like that I feel like what really happened is that then Caitlin Clark.
00:44:00.159 --> 00:44:07.039
Started getting questions about it, and you can't have the star player being put in such a position, and so she started to walk it back.
00:44:07.199 --> 00:44:08.800
Why can't we talk about basketball?
00:44:08.880 --> 00:44:18.239
And so now she's become this joke where people are like, So if we are just talking about basketball, Sophie scored zero points today, right, in the 25 minutes that she played.
00:44:18.480 --> 00:44:58.159
But what irks me so much is that she's speaking to a community who is so like closed-minded, probably doesn't know a single gay person or trans person, like just has such a weird like misconception of who these people are, and the moment you say trans, they're fucking frightened, they're scared of they build up who this person is or what they look like, or you know what their motives are in their own head because they don't know like they've never known anybody in the community, and I and she's preying on that fear, it's just making it worse.
00:44:58.480 --> 00:45:03.519
It's just like I don't know, it's just like so hateful.
00:45:03.920 --> 00:45:21.519
Like it's free to not be hateful, like it really is, and it's like this is I feel like I've been saying this for years, but this is genuine like if I were to really break down like the political parties like all the way down, it's giving Republicans care too much about other people's business.
00:45:22.800 --> 00:45:27.280
Like Democrats are like, do you it's your life?
00:45:27.519 --> 00:45:36.400
It's also like we're all fucking human, like we all deserve the same rights and protection and equality.
00:45:36.559 --> 00:45:37.440
It's just about equality.
00:45:37.760 --> 00:45:49.599
It's just like really strange though, for like someone to be so concerned about what another person who they have who they don't know have no connection to, yeah, is doing with their time, with their bodies in their personal private time.
00:45:49.679 --> 00:45:52.000
Like I and it doesn't affect you at all.
00:45:52.159 --> 00:45:54.079
Like, why are you worried about what I'm doing in a bedroom?
00:45:54.159 --> 00:45:54.960
You're not in there with me.
00:45:55.119 --> 00:45:55.440
Exactly.
00:45:55.599 --> 00:45:56.400
Like, it's weird.
00:45:56.639 --> 00:45:59.119
And I don't worry about what you're what you're doing.
00:45:59.360 --> 00:45:59.599
Right.
00:45:59.679 --> 00:46:03.199
Like, why are you worried about what I got on under exactly under my clothes?
00:46:03.280 --> 00:46:03.920
Like, I don't know.
00:46:04.000 --> 00:46:06.480
It's it's so why do you care about my pronouns?
00:46:06.559 --> 00:46:12.559
Like, it's it's literally the same thing, like the same idea like around abortion, in my opinion.
00:46:12.639 --> 00:46:21.679
It's just like, why are you so pressed about someone who like literally lives around the block three blocks down who you literally have never met and that she decides she wants to get an abortion?
00:46:22.000 --> 00:46:22.639
It's crazy.
00:46:22.800 --> 00:46:25.280
It literally has not a single fucking thing to do with you.
00:46:25.440 --> 00:46:25.920
Not one.
00:46:26.159 --> 00:46:27.679
No, not one.
00:46:28.079 --> 00:46:43.360
It's so uh it's sickening, and it's like there is unfortunately like a group of of people who like they really feel like this is it, like that's how you have to approach these things, and it's really it's really sad.
00:46:43.519 --> 00:46:45.199
Like, I don't know.
00:46:45.440 --> 00:46:48.719
You would think that we would be like more evolved than this, you know what I mean?
00:46:49.280 --> 00:46:53.280
And I feel like we're just moving backwards with the current administration.
00:46:53.760 --> 00:46:55.199
Oh my god, I know.
00:46:55.440 --> 00:46:57.679
I like I cannot wait for it to be over.
00:46:57.760 --> 00:46:58.880
How many years do we have left?
00:46:59.039 --> 00:47:04.960
Two well, it's about to be has it just been one year?
00:47:05.119 --> 00:47:06.880
Yeah, shut the fuck up.
00:47:07.039 --> 00:47:08.480
It's not even been a full year.
00:47:08.639 --> 00:47:10.880
Has it just been one year?
00:47:11.119 --> 00:47:11.360
Yeah.
00:47:11.519 --> 00:47:12.559
Doesn't it feel like ten?
00:47:12.960 --> 00:47:14.000
It hasn't been two?
00:47:14.559 --> 00:47:14.880
No.
00:47:17.199 --> 00:47:19.039
Oh man.
00:47:20.800 --> 00:47:21.920
Why hasn't that been two?
00:47:22.559 --> 00:47:24.320
That's shitty.
00:47:24.480 --> 00:47:25.119
I don't know.
00:47:25.280 --> 00:47:26.480
That's why we all need to vote.
00:47:26.639 --> 00:47:42.880
That's why all this all the midterm elections and like there are I don't know, we don't have to get so political on this pod, but like the there are a lot of um like governors uh governor elections and things like that that are being turned in smaller.
00:47:43.360 --> 00:47:46.000
I'm sorry, I'm so shook that it hasn't even been a year.
00:47:46.320 --> 00:47:46.880
I know.
00:47:47.840 --> 00:47:54.719
I feel like the Democrats are gonna we're gonna win this year or whenever we have we get a chance again.
00:47:55.119 --> 00:47:56.239
God, I hope so.
00:47:56.480 --> 00:47:57.199
We have to.
00:47:57.920 --> 00:47:58.480
Wow.
00:47:58.639 --> 00:47:59.920
Um anyway.
00:48:00.159 --> 00:48:21.119
Yeah, anyway, but yeah, I feel like there's uh some podcaster, I don't know who it was, but he said like if I'm gonna like butcher it, but he said something really beautiful like if you can't give the trans community equality and respect, then at least give them silence.
00:48:21.360 --> 00:48:23.360
Like, why are you even saying anything?
00:48:23.440 --> 00:48:24.239
You know what I mean?
00:48:24.559 --> 00:48:25.840
Yeah, that's a bar.
00:48:26.079 --> 00:48:28.239
Yeah, that is a bar.
00:48:28.880 --> 00:48:29.920
Yeah, wow.
00:48:30.320 --> 00:48:42.559
Well, I'll tell you what, we can turn the tables now and talk about see from spotlight because there are some positives to talk about in regards to basketball, but also in regards to this whole like trans conversation.
00:48:42.880 --> 00:48:44.559
Yeah, let's do it.
00:48:45.119 --> 00:48:46.880
Let's talk see from spotlight.
00:48:47.119 --> 00:48:49.280
Let's talk lots to talk about.
00:48:49.679 --> 00:48:54.480
Should we do a should we do a moment of silence for this first part?
00:48:57.119 --> 00:49:00.639
Okay, a moment of silence for losing.
00:49:01.280 --> 00:49:06.800
I shouldn't say losing, but releasing Nigelaney Hamilton from the New York Liberty roster.
00:49:09.039 --> 00:49:10.800
Eliza, a moment of silence, please.
00:49:10.960 --> 00:49:11.840
No, no typing.
00:49:15.920 --> 00:49:16.239
Okay.
00:49:16.880 --> 00:49:19.440
But literally, I think we're gonna really regret that.
00:49:20.000 --> 00:49:20.880
I hope we already do.
00:49:21.119 --> 00:49:23.119
I mean, I regret it every time.
00:49:24.079 --> 00:49:24.960
I regret it every time.
00:49:25.199 --> 00:49:27.119
I cannot believe it happened still.
00:49:28.079 --> 00:49:30.400
I mean what happened?
00:49:30.559 --> 00:49:33.119
What I need to be in I need to be in the locker room.
00:49:33.440 --> 00:49:34.159
You need to talk to her.
00:49:34.559 --> 00:49:35.440
I would love to talk to her.
00:49:35.599 --> 00:49:36.079
She's your friend.
00:49:36.800 --> 00:49:39.440
She's in DC now with the young hoes.
00:49:39.840 --> 00:49:43.280
An old hoe amongst the young young hoes.
00:49:45.039 --> 00:49:46.159
Because that's crazy.
00:49:46.320 --> 00:49:49.840
Uh but she seems just like so much happier.
00:49:50.400 --> 00:49:52.800
She deserves to be somewhere where she can be happy, to be honest.
00:49:52.880 --> 00:49:54.480
Like she can be appreciated.
00:49:55.360 --> 00:50:00.800
You know, I'm not gonna throw it back to like if Sandy were here, this would have never happened, but I am gonna say that again.
00:50:01.199 --> 00:50:04.400
I don't think it would have happened, transparently, if Sandy was Stork Coach.
00:50:04.559 --> 00:50:06.880
She absolutely would not have been released.
00:50:07.360 --> 00:50:07.679
Nope.
00:50:08.000 --> 00:50:09.679
And you know what pisses me off?
00:50:09.840 --> 00:50:21.119
Like a few pods ago, when we were talking about the potential of Chris DeMarco, and we brought up the time that he gave her the sweatshirt, and we were like, he's a nice guy.
00:50:21.519 --> 00:50:22.800
I'm gonna fuck Chris DeMarco.
00:50:23.039 --> 00:50:23.599
Fuck that shit.
00:50:23.679 --> 00:50:24.559
Yeah, fuck that shit.
00:50:24.719 --> 00:50:26.159
I hope she kept the sweatshirt as well.
00:50:27.360 --> 00:50:28.480
I hope she burned it, yeah.
00:50:28.559 --> 00:50:30.000
I don't I I don't know.
00:50:30.079 --> 00:50:37.679
It's complicated my my feelings about it because I'm like, yeah, I hope she burned it, but then I'm also like, uh the Liberty.
00:50:38.239 --> 00:50:39.760
But then I just I don't know.
00:50:39.840 --> 00:50:43.199
The Liberty have just I think just changed so much in the last couple of seasons.
00:50:43.360 --> 00:50:48.639
And this season is like has been such a fucking roller coaster.
00:50:49.199 --> 00:51:03.840
Yeah, like it came out officially Satsu spending time away from the team indefinitely, which honestly I forgot she was even on the team, and then she showed up courts or on the bench for one game like a month ago, and I was just like, Oh, I forgot she was on our team.
00:51:04.159 --> 00:51:05.360
Like, no disrespect, no shame.
00:51:07.840 --> 00:51:20.639
I just I think it makes sense that she's spending time away from the team given her concussion history, but I also think her concussion history should have been a reason why we did not sign her to a million-dollar contract.
00:51:21.679 --> 00:51:23.039
Make it make sense.
00:51:24.159 --> 00:51:25.519
It's not the same.
00:51:25.840 --> 00:51:41.360
It's not the same, but I can't help but think about Ben Simmons and how he got that fucking contract and then didn't play, was not showing up to work, and I know it's different because she's concussed, she should be focusing on her health.
00:51:42.880 --> 00:51:44.079
But also what the fuck.
00:51:44.320 --> 00:51:45.519
Yeah, but yeah, exactly.
00:51:45.599 --> 00:51:47.199
Like, didn't we see this coming?
00:51:47.920 --> 00:51:50.320
Like, yeah, wasn't this she's injury prone?
00:51:50.559 --> 00:51:52.960
She she's been injured the last like three seasons.
00:51:53.760 --> 00:51:56.639
Yeah, it's it's not been good.
00:51:56.800 --> 00:51:59.760
She's also not playing in the FIBA World Cup naturally.
00:51:59.920 --> 00:52:04.960
That would really piss me off if she was playing there and then not in New York.
00:52:05.119 --> 00:52:21.840
Um and then after releasing Bet Niza, we apparently did that so we could sign Marina Fatou to also question mark was no, she didn't get a single minute yesterday against the fever, which I'm just like, what was the reason?
00:52:22.079 --> 00:52:22.960
What was the reason?
00:52:23.039 --> 00:52:26.159
Why is she on our team for multi-years?
00:52:26.719 --> 00:52:31.840
No, it doesn't make any sense, and it's the same thing with Raquel Carrera getting minutes before Bet and Isa.
00:52:32.559 --> 00:52:34.559
It's sickening, sickening.
00:52:34.880 --> 00:52:36.880
I can't stand when Raquel's on the court.
00:52:36.960 --> 00:52:37.840
I'm like, get her off.
00:52:38.000 --> 00:52:42.480
I like what like what is it that we're seeing exactly?
00:52:42.880 --> 00:52:44.639
Like, what are we seeing from her?
00:52:44.800 --> 00:52:45.599
I I know what I'm saying.
00:52:45.760 --> 00:52:46.480
Like, how does she play?
00:52:46.639 --> 00:52:54.000
I mean, I don't know what Chris Marco and Jonathan Colb are seeing.
00:52:54.960 --> 00:52:57.599
You know, we really need Clara Wusai to step in.
00:52:57.840 --> 00:53:01.280
Honestly, that was just really funny because you were so deadass.
00:53:01.519 --> 00:53:02.960
You were like, I know what I'm seeing.
00:53:04.880 --> 00:53:08.079
She looks like Bambi every time she steps on the court, like she's never touched a ball.
00:53:08.400 --> 00:53:10.239
How was she playing when she's in Europe?
00:53:10.320 --> 00:53:11.039
Is my question.
00:53:11.119 --> 00:53:13.760
Like, what are they what what what am I not seeing?
00:53:14.000 --> 00:53:14.400
Exactly.
00:53:14.480 --> 00:53:15.280
I don't know.
00:53:15.599 --> 00:53:16.320
I don't know.
00:53:16.480 --> 00:53:25.599
I also just feel like excluding yesterday's game, generally speaking, the Liberty have just been showing so much unseriousness and apathy.
00:53:25.920 --> 00:53:29.599
Like, when they play, like they don't care.
00:53:29.760 --> 00:53:31.599
It's like they don't want to win.
00:53:31.920 --> 00:53:38.320
Then there's like the Chris DeMarco delusion where he has tried he's like, you know what?
00:53:38.639 --> 00:53:41.280
We're absolutely frying right now.
00:53:41.599 --> 00:53:43.360
Let's put Raquel in.
00:53:44.320 --> 00:53:45.760
Let's let's 100%.
00:53:46.320 --> 00:53:46.800
You know what?
00:53:47.039 --> 00:53:49.039
Annalie Maley's not suited up to you know what?
00:53:49.119 --> 00:53:50.000
Go go get dressed.
00:53:50.079 --> 00:53:51.280
Yeah, get in the locker room.
00:53:51.360 --> 00:53:54.480
I want to play all the developmental players that we have at the same time.
00:53:54.639 --> 00:53:54.880
Yeah.
00:53:55.039 --> 00:53:55.840
And you know what?
00:53:56.000 --> 00:53:57.199
And you know what?
00:53:57.679 --> 00:53:59.360
All of the starters sit down.
00:54:00.000 --> 00:54:00.320
Sit down.
00:54:00.559 --> 00:54:00.800
You know what?
00:54:01.360 --> 00:54:01.760
Take a break.
00:54:02.000 --> 00:54:03.679
He's like, you know what?
00:54:03.920 --> 00:54:05.519
Where are the stampas?
00:54:05.679 --> 00:54:07.199
Let's get somebody from the stampas.
00:54:07.360 --> 00:54:13.920
Let's get somebody from the fucking torches and of course the other torches, the OG torches.
00:54:14.480 --> 00:54:14.960
Timeless?
00:54:15.119 --> 00:54:15.360
Yeah.
00:54:15.519 --> 00:54:15.920
Thanks.
00:54:16.000 --> 00:54:17.280
I was like, they're not old.
00:54:17.519 --> 00:54:18.480
No, they're timeless.
00:54:18.639 --> 00:54:18.880
Sorry.
00:54:19.280 --> 00:54:21.199
I couldn't think I couldn't think of the adjective.
00:54:21.440 --> 00:54:31.599
He's like, let's get a representative from yeah, timeless torches, little torches, the stampas, a developmental player, and you know what?
00:54:31.840 --> 00:54:34.239
Let's get one of the security people.
00:54:35.199 --> 00:54:37.599
And let's see how they let's see how they rock on a court.
00:54:37.679 --> 00:54:38.480
Let's see what they're doing.
00:54:38.559 --> 00:54:39.840
Like it is actually fucking crazy.
00:54:40.159 --> 00:54:41.039
It is insane.
00:54:41.280 --> 00:54:43.760
I don't understand that man's strategy at all.
00:54:44.079 --> 00:54:44.960
What strategy?
00:54:45.519 --> 00:54:46.320
Exactly.
00:54:46.719 --> 00:54:53.360
Because I don't think I've ever seen another head coach in any sport just be sitting during a game.
00:54:54.639 --> 00:55:01.119
I feel like I've I genuinely think I've only ever seen head coaches pace up and down the sidelines, some of them even on the court.
00:55:01.199 --> 00:55:03.519
And I notably have said, girl, get off the court.
00:55:03.599 --> 00:55:04.320
What are you doing?
00:55:04.480 --> 00:55:04.719
Yep.
00:55:04.880 --> 00:55:09.679
Yeah, I remember when JJ ran into shit, took her out clean.
00:55:09.920 --> 00:55:12.480
And you seen Becky Hammond ate shit the other day.
00:55:12.960 --> 00:55:13.599
Yeah.
00:55:14.880 --> 00:55:17.199
Becky Hammond got ejected the other day, too.
00:55:17.360 --> 00:55:17.679
She did.
00:55:17.760 --> 00:55:19.519
Two techs in a row, she got ejected.
00:55:21.760 --> 00:55:22.079
Oh yeah.
00:55:22.480 --> 00:55:22.880
Coaches.
00:55:23.119 --> 00:55:24.079
The Atlanta coach, yeah.
00:55:24.239 --> 00:55:24.960
Kelsey Pumps.
00:55:25.679 --> 00:55:25.920
Oh yeah.
00:55:26.480 --> 00:55:27.280
See that Jack.
00:55:28.400 --> 00:55:31.119
Yeah, well, I don't know if you know that motherfucker lifts.
00:55:31.360 --> 00:55:32.079
He's big.
00:55:32.239 --> 00:55:33.280
No, he lifts for real.
00:55:33.360 --> 00:55:34.480
Like he's brolic, yeah.
00:55:34.719 --> 00:55:35.360
He's crazy.
00:55:35.920 --> 00:55:39.119
I literally always think that when I watch see him.
00:55:39.280 --> 00:55:41.519
I'm like, damn, you're big.
00:55:45.280 --> 00:55:52.159
Like no, I mean, like, it's actually it's actually wild.
00:55:52.239 --> 00:55:54.400
Like, also, can we talk about real quick?
00:55:54.480 --> 00:56:03.039
Just I just felt like there's something weird going on with the Liberty where like it is now a predominantly white team that is based in Brooklyn.
00:56:03.440 --> 00:56:19.440
Yeah, it's it's uh based in Brooklyn, the blackest borough, probably aside from Harlem, in New York, and it's barely any black girls on that team, and the the fucking mascot is definitely giving black woman energy.
00:56:19.599 --> 00:56:20.000
I don't know.
00:56:20.079 --> 00:56:24.639
It feels at the like it's starting to feel like caricature, it's weird, yeah.
00:56:25.039 --> 00:56:26.400
Yeah, I don't know.
00:56:26.480 --> 00:56:27.119
I don't know.
00:56:27.199 --> 00:56:29.760
The bench is like I don't I don't understand our bench.
00:56:29.840 --> 00:56:31.760
I think we have to trade Ellie to Atlanta.
00:56:32.079 --> 00:56:33.599
No, we can't lose Ellie.
00:56:33.840 --> 00:56:37.679
I know, but they like they like the black pantas.
00:56:37.840 --> 00:56:39.519
They like the black pantas in Atlanta.
00:56:39.599 --> 00:56:40.800
It's a bunch of black girls on Atlanta.
00:56:40.960 --> 00:56:42.000
Does he have a mascot?
00:56:42.400 --> 00:56:42.719
No.
00:56:43.679 --> 00:56:45.440
I mean, because you can't make Martin Luther King.
00:56:45.679 --> 00:56:47.519
You can't make Martin Luther King a mascot.
00:56:47.760 --> 00:56:48.639
I mean, I guess you could.
00:56:48.719 --> 00:56:49.920
I have a dream, you know what I mean?
00:56:50.079 --> 00:56:50.639
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
00:56:50.960 --> 00:56:51.840
I mean, you could.
00:56:52.159 --> 00:56:54.320
That'd be nah, that'd be that that'd be too funny.
00:56:54.400 --> 00:56:58.159
That's like the fucking AI videos of people making Martin Luther King rap.
00:56:58.239 --> 00:56:58.800
Have you seen those?
00:56:58.960 --> 00:56:59.199
No.
00:56:59.440 --> 00:57:00.239
Thank God you haven't.
00:57:00.480 --> 00:57:01.119
I don't want to see that.
00:57:01.440 --> 00:57:02.880
I'm just like, let that man rest.
00:57:03.119 --> 00:57:03.599
Literally.
00:57:03.840 --> 00:57:04.400
He's tired.
00:57:04.559 --> 00:57:07.519
He would be fucking turning, he probably is spinning in his grave.
00:57:07.679 --> 00:57:07.920
Yeah.
00:57:08.000 --> 00:57:09.840
He I mean he's certain he certainly is.
00:57:10.079 --> 00:57:10.800
I just I don't know.
00:57:10.880 --> 00:57:12.639
There's something Joe Peach then or something.
00:57:12.880 --> 00:57:13.519
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
00:57:13.679 --> 00:57:15.039
It's just something off about that though.
00:57:15.119 --> 00:57:16.079
Like, I don't know.
00:57:16.159 --> 00:57:20.559
The mascot is like giving black woman and it's like barely any black woman on a team.
00:57:20.719 --> 00:57:23.280
Shout out JJ, shout out Rebecca.
00:57:23.760 --> 00:57:27.039
And now Bal Balagoon, who we just signed.
00:57:27.119 --> 00:57:27.280
Yes.
00:57:27.599 --> 00:57:32.639
Who Yeah, she played, she was playing for another team and got released early in the season.
00:57:33.440 --> 00:57:34.719
She was playing for Sandy.
00:57:34.960 --> 00:57:35.440
Yes.
00:57:35.599 --> 00:57:36.000
Thank you.
00:57:36.079 --> 00:57:38.639
I was like, she was playing for one of the expansion teams.
00:57:39.360 --> 00:57:42.559
I wasn't sure if she was one of the black girls who got cut in Portland.
00:57:42.960 --> 00:57:44.480
You know, because they just, you know.
00:57:44.960 --> 00:57:47.440
I mean, we're right there.
00:57:48.159 --> 00:57:49.760
We might be the second whitest team.
00:57:49.840 --> 00:57:50.639
They're definitely the first.
00:57:50.800 --> 00:57:51.679
Oh my god, stop.
00:57:51.840 --> 00:57:52.639
Don't say that.
00:57:52.960 --> 00:57:53.679
It's true though.
00:57:53.840 --> 00:57:54.320
I think it's true.
00:57:54.719 --> 00:57:55.440
I think it might be true.
00:57:56.960 --> 00:58:04.719
Um, and then I I did have a note here about JJ's injury in Chicago, but I feel like that's no longer important because last night.
00:58:05.199 --> 00:58:06.800
He doesn't believe in restricted minutes.
00:58:07.039 --> 00:58:07.440
Yeah.
00:58:07.679 --> 00:58:09.039
That's what they said in the press conference.
00:58:09.119 --> 00:58:10.079
Chris DeMarker doesn't believe.
00:58:10.320 --> 00:58:12.000
He said he doesn't believe in restricted minutes.
00:58:12.320 --> 00:58:13.760
Brianna Stewart said that about him.
00:58:13.920 --> 00:58:14.159
Oh.
00:58:14.559 --> 00:58:16.800
He got a question and she goes, he doesn't believe in that.
00:58:17.199 --> 00:58:17.519
Oh.
00:58:17.840 --> 00:58:19.119
Isn't that funny?
00:58:19.519 --> 00:58:20.079
Yeah.
00:58:21.039 --> 00:58:21.440
You know what?
00:58:21.519 --> 00:58:22.400
Ain't shit funny.
00:58:22.559 --> 00:58:24.559
He should restrict Raquel's minutes, though.
00:58:27.280 --> 00:58:28.639
That's good, Bonnie.
00:58:29.679 --> 00:58:30.239
That's good.
00:58:31.679 --> 00:58:32.000
Okay.
00:58:32.480 --> 00:58:42.559
So uh JJ's injury doesn't fucking matter anyway, because last night we played against the Indiana Fever, the Confederacy in New York.
00:58:43.280 --> 00:58:45.039
And oh my god.
00:58:45.280 --> 00:58:48.480
Wait, I just put this two these two together.
00:58:48.719 --> 00:58:54.719
Coincidentally, they recreated the Battle of Brooklyn in Prospect Park yesterday.
00:58:55.760 --> 00:58:58.960
So it's kind of it's kind of regaining our independence.
00:58:59.199 --> 00:59:02.159
It really was a b it was a battle of Brooklyn.
00:59:02.320 --> 00:59:08.639
Like, first of all, I just want to give a huge shout out and and welcome back.
00:59:08.960 --> 00:59:11.360
Uh shout out to Leo.
00:59:11.920 --> 00:59:12.239
Yeah.
00:59:12.480 --> 00:59:14.480
A huge shout out and welcome back.
00:59:14.719 --> 00:59:15.519
Shout out.
00:59:15.760 --> 00:59:16.400
Shout out.
00:59:16.719 --> 00:59:19.119
To El Papa.
00:59:20.159 --> 00:59:20.559
Leo.
00:59:20.800 --> 00:59:21.920
She's like the Pope, bro.
00:59:22.000 --> 00:59:23.280
Like she's the chosen one.
00:59:23.360 --> 00:59:25.119
Like she, I don't know.
00:59:25.199 --> 00:59:26.079
She's God's favorite.
00:59:26.159 --> 00:59:27.679
She is touched by God, I think.
00:59:27.840 --> 00:59:30.400
She like she's brolic now, too.
00:59:30.559 --> 00:59:34.079
Like she came back thick calves, thick legs, thick arms.
00:59:34.320 --> 00:59:35.840
She's like, I gotta be ready.
00:59:36.000 --> 00:59:37.360
She said, you name me.
00:59:37.760 --> 00:59:40.800
Her back definitely had to be hurting after yesterday because she put the team on her back.
00:59:41.039 --> 00:59:41.599
She literally did.
00:59:41.760 --> 00:59:43.360
She came back 20.
00:59:43.679 --> 00:59:44.400
Yeah, 20.
00:59:44.559 --> 00:59:47.599
I think she was like 25 and something else.
00:59:47.760 --> 00:59:50.159
Um a season high for her.
00:59:50.400 --> 00:59:51.360
A season high.
00:59:51.519 --> 00:59:53.920
She was locking shit up on defense.
00:59:54.079 --> 01:00:00.159
Caitlin Clark was bitching and moaning all game, and it's just like it's not a foul just because she's hot and strong.
01:00:00.400 --> 01:00:01.039
Yeah.
01:00:01.519 --> 01:00:02.719
You know what I mean?
01:00:02.880 --> 01:00:05.039
Like, what that's not a foul.
01:00:05.280 --> 01:00:07.679
Like, I don't know what to tell you.
01:00:08.079 --> 01:00:09.440
She was cooking.
01:00:09.519 --> 01:00:13.920
Like, she really man, like, she just changes the identity of our team.
01:00:14.000 --> 01:00:15.840
And she plays good defense.
01:00:16.079 --> 01:00:17.119
Like, she's tall.
01:00:17.199 --> 01:00:18.079
She's 6'4, right?
01:00:18.159 --> 01:00:18.559
Yeah, she's fine.
01:00:18.719 --> 01:00:19.440
Yeah, she's tall.
01:00:19.519 --> 01:00:20.480
She's tall.
01:00:20.800 --> 01:00:21.199
Wow.
01:00:21.360 --> 01:00:22.719
I'm so glad she's back.
01:00:22.880 --> 01:00:29.119
Also, I have to say, like, the chemistry of the starting five with her back was like good again.
01:00:29.199 --> 01:00:29.760
You know what I mean?
01:00:29.840 --> 01:00:30.800
Oh my god, I know.
01:00:31.519 --> 01:00:32.400
It was like a different team.
01:00:33.039 --> 01:00:33.920
It's a different team.
01:00:34.079 --> 01:00:34.559
Yeah.
01:00:34.800 --> 01:00:36.320
Which is crazy.
01:00:36.559 --> 01:00:38.719
I mean, I guess that's yeah.
01:00:39.519 --> 01:00:40.400
I mean, listen.
01:00:40.880 --> 01:00:41.840
The impact of Leo.
01:00:42.079 --> 01:00:48.400
And if she didn't miss so many games, like I would argue she could be a candidate for MVP because look at how the team just changed.
01:00:48.559 --> 01:00:51.280
She got back on the court and all of a sudden they're cooking.
01:00:51.519 --> 01:00:52.000
I know.
01:00:52.239 --> 01:00:54.960
A hundred we scored a hundred points yesterday.
01:00:55.199 --> 01:00:55.760
I know.
01:00:55.920 --> 01:00:57.199
Like, that's crazy.
01:00:57.519 --> 01:00:58.239
Oh my god.
01:00:58.320 --> 01:00:59.119
Shout out to her.
01:00:59.280 --> 01:01:00.719
Thank God for you coming back.
01:01:00.880 --> 01:01:03.519
The game was very tight, too, the entire time.
01:01:03.760 --> 01:01:05.760
Yeah, it was very like shot for shot.
01:01:06.000 --> 01:01:06.639
Yeah.
01:01:06.880 --> 01:01:07.440
It was.
01:01:07.519 --> 01:01:08.400
And I didn't like it.
01:01:08.800 --> 01:01:15.119
There was one point though where they were getting close, and I remember saying to Brenda, I was just like, I don't even care if Indiana scores.
01:01:15.199 --> 01:01:17.599
We just need to go bucket for bucket for them until the game is over.
01:01:17.679 --> 01:01:18.639
Bucket for bucket.
01:01:18.719 --> 01:01:20.320
It's like I was so stressed.
01:01:20.480 --> 01:01:21.679
It was a stressful game.
01:01:21.920 --> 01:01:22.400
It was.
01:01:22.639 --> 01:01:28.480
Well, notably, I thought what was interesting is that Carol Lawson was calling the game.
01:01:28.639 --> 01:01:33.760
For those who don't know, she is the head coach for Team USA for this FIBA World Cup.
01:01:34.000 --> 01:01:38.320
And I found it really interesting that, not interesting, and lightning.
01:01:38.559 --> 01:01:46.480
I found it very pleasantly surprising that she was critiquing Caitlin Clark without even saying her name.
01:01:46.559 --> 01:01:52.079
But essentially, there were some really questionable decisions by Indiana.
01:01:52.159 --> 01:01:54.960
And by Indiana, I mean by Caitlin down the stretch.
01:01:55.119 --> 01:01:57.440
They ended up tying the game.
01:01:57.760 --> 01:02:01.280
And Leo, again, locked that ass up.
01:02:01.440 --> 01:02:02.800
She didn't get the foul.
01:02:03.199 --> 01:02:05.840
She was pissed that she didn't get the foul.
01:02:06.159 --> 01:02:06.800
Three tangent.
01:02:07.440 --> 01:02:08.960
And it was not a foul, notably.
01:02:09.119 --> 01:02:09.760
It was not a foul.
01:02:09.840 --> 01:02:10.719
It was just really good defense.
01:02:11.119 --> 01:02:11.679
She didn't get it.
01:02:11.760 --> 01:02:14.159
And so she didn't run back on defense.
01:02:14.320 --> 01:02:23.440
And so then, in order to recover, she tried to trap Pauline Astier along the sideline with Kelsey Mitchell and ended up fouling her.
01:02:23.519 --> 01:02:28.719
And we were in the bonus, which sent us to the line and put us up five instead of three.
01:02:28.960 --> 01:02:31.360
That's called no game IQ.
01:02:31.760 --> 01:02:32.239
Zero.
01:02:32.400 --> 01:02:34.559
Like it's okay to be frustrated.
01:02:34.719 --> 01:02:37.760
It is not okay to put your team in that kind of predicament.
01:02:37.840 --> 01:02:42.719
It is so, so fucking selfish, which explains exactly why she's never been a team captain.
01:02:42.880 --> 01:02:43.119
Yep.
01:02:43.280 --> 01:02:46.320
That's why Kate Martin was captain at Iowa and not her.
01:02:46.559 --> 01:02:47.119
That's true.
01:02:47.360 --> 01:02:49.360
Like it's it's really crazy.
01:02:49.519 --> 01:02:58.480
Like then I think Leo made it to the line uh for two, made the first, missed the second.
01:02:58.719 --> 01:03:02.960
Everybody on the fever team was boxing out except for Caitlin.
01:03:03.199 --> 01:03:05.119
No one boxed out the shooter.
01:03:05.440 --> 01:03:12.400
And even like in something as soon as you as like a rec game, yeah, like a quick little pickup five on five.
01:03:12.559 --> 01:03:15.280
You always have someone box out the shooter.
01:03:15.440 --> 01:03:18.639
You oh someone's always like, I got shooter, I got shooter.
01:03:18.960 --> 01:03:20.079
She just stood there.
01:03:20.239 --> 01:03:21.360
She literally just stood there.
01:03:21.519 --> 01:03:26.159
And then we got the ball again, and I'm pretty sure we either scored or went back to the line right after that.
01:03:26.400 --> 01:03:33.199
So geez, if I'm if I am on that team, I would be sick.
01:03:33.360 --> 01:03:39.119
I'd be like, Like, they're gonna watch tape, they're gonna watch tape and call it out, and I bet she won't take accountability for it.
01:03:39.360 --> 01:03:40.159
Of course not.
01:03:40.320 --> 01:03:46.239
Like they also I I wouldn't be sub I wouldn't be surprised if they didn't call it out because I feel like her ego is so precious.
01:03:46.320 --> 01:03:48.239
Like they walk on eggshells around her.
01:03:48.480 --> 01:03:55.519
Like it's like, oh, gotta protect her little fucking Which is dude, like it's it's so wild.
01:03:55.760 --> 01:03:57.280
She had a good game yesterday.
01:03:57.360 --> 01:03:58.239
I hate to say it.
01:03:58.320 --> 01:03:59.360
She had a good game.
01:03:59.519 --> 01:04:01.679
Yeah, she even limited the turnovers.
01:04:01.920 --> 01:04:02.880
Should only two.
01:04:03.119 --> 01:04:03.760
Only two.
01:04:03.920 --> 01:04:05.599
So they had to get a couple in there.
01:04:05.840 --> 01:04:06.480
Yeah.
01:04:06.880 --> 01:04:11.440
But you know, she did keep it to a minimum, which is still too many.
01:04:11.599 --> 01:04:12.159
It's crazy.
01:04:12.400 --> 01:04:14.000
Some of her passes were insane.
01:04:14.079 --> 01:04:15.920
I was like, Some of them should have been turnovers.
01:04:16.079 --> 01:04:18.400
She probably should have had at least five or six turnovers yesterday.
01:04:18.719 --> 01:04:23.119
If I were Aliyah or Kelsey, I would have been like, girl, look when you pass.
01:04:23.280 --> 01:04:25.760
Like bring your head up.
01:04:26.079 --> 01:04:26.400
Yeah.
01:04:26.559 --> 01:04:28.719
I mean, it's yeah.
01:04:29.280 --> 01:04:33.360
Also, the complaining to the refs is like such it's such a nauseating.
01:04:33.679 --> 01:04:34.960
Like, literally, please shut up.
01:04:35.199 --> 01:04:36.719
I feel like all of them do it now.
01:04:36.880 --> 01:04:41.519
Like at one point, I saw her doing it, Sophie doing it, and Aliyah doing it at the same time.
01:04:42.000 --> 01:04:42.880
One to each ref.
01:04:43.119 --> 01:04:43.280
Yeah.
01:04:43.440 --> 01:04:48.239
And I was like, Oh, Sophie was chirping at the refs the entire time, even when she had nothing to do with the play.
01:04:48.480 --> 01:04:49.920
She did that weird, like clapping.
01:04:50.320 --> 01:04:50.719
Oh, yeah.
01:04:50.800 --> 01:04:54.800
She was clapping, she was clapping at Rebecca Gardner after she fouled her.
01:04:55.039 --> 01:04:56.239
What a stupid bitch.
01:04:56.400 --> 01:04:56.960
I hate her.
01:04:57.280 --> 01:04:57.599
Yep.
01:04:57.760 --> 01:04:58.320
Hate her.
01:04:58.559 --> 01:04:59.360
I wish she had any.
01:04:59.840 --> 01:05:00.480
What's her nickname?
01:05:01.199 --> 01:05:02.000
Cunting him.
01:05:03.360 --> 01:05:04.639
So good.
01:05:06.159 --> 01:05:06.960
Yeah, I don't know.
01:05:07.039 --> 01:05:09.199
I just it felt like we really needed that win.
01:05:09.280 --> 01:05:11.519
We talked about it a little bit off the air too.
01:05:11.760 --> 01:05:16.719
Just I felt like we needed that win for the trans community.
01:05:16.800 --> 01:05:17.039
Yep.
01:05:17.199 --> 01:05:18.880
And for the queer community just generally.
01:05:21.920 --> 01:05:24.000
Like you can't come here and bring that fucking energy.
01:05:24.159 --> 01:05:24.400
No.
01:05:24.639 --> 01:05:26.400
You cannot come here and bring that fucking energy.
01:05:26.480 --> 01:05:29.920
And I know all of us were sitting around some obnoxious Indiana fans.
01:05:30.159 --> 01:05:36.480
Yeah, and honestly, like every time they would score or do something that got cheers from fever fans, I would boo!
01:05:36.960 --> 01:05:37.679
Boo!
01:05:38.079 --> 01:05:39.840
Just like one boo.
01:05:40.239 --> 01:05:40.559
Good.
01:05:40.800 --> 01:05:41.280
Right after.
01:05:41.360 --> 01:05:42.719
I wanted people to know where I stood.
01:05:42.960 --> 01:05:46.719
Um, Amanda's section notably started chanting Sophie Sucks.
01:05:46.880 --> 01:05:47.119
Yeah.
01:05:47.360 --> 01:05:48.960
We heard it from all the way over in ours.
01:05:49.280 --> 01:05:50.480
We I don't know.
01:05:50.559 --> 01:05:52.079
I was just like, yeah, you know what?
01:05:52.239 --> 01:05:53.199
I like to see it.
01:05:53.280 --> 01:05:54.000
I like to see it.
01:05:54.079 --> 01:05:54.880
I like to hear it.
01:05:55.119 --> 01:05:59.760
Even the guy who usually starts the all we got, all we need chance, he passed by our eye.
01:06:00.320 --> 01:06:01.840
And I missed him by split second bar.
01:06:02.000 --> 01:06:04.000
I almost said to him, hey, we're really gonna need you tonight.
01:06:04.159 --> 01:06:04.480
Yeah.
01:06:04.960 --> 01:06:10.000
And thank God he he was starting the chance, but he thanked God was not doing all we got, all we need.
01:06:10.239 --> 01:06:11.519
I did hear it at one point.
01:06:11.679 --> 01:06:13.199
No, not from your section.
01:06:13.519 --> 01:06:15.360
I think it was like across the court.
01:06:15.599 --> 01:06:18.480
I told him not Wow.
01:06:18.639 --> 01:06:22.320
Yeah, no, he was leading the let's go to the birthday.
01:06:22.639 --> 01:06:22.880
Good.
01:06:22.960 --> 01:06:23.760
He's that guy.
01:06:23.920 --> 01:06:26.320
And also the you can't do that.
01:06:26.639 --> 01:06:26.960
Good.
01:06:27.039 --> 01:06:28.159
He loves doing that one.
01:06:28.239 --> 01:06:28.480
Yeah.
01:06:28.639 --> 01:06:29.119
You know what?
01:06:29.280 --> 01:06:30.159
We needed to be loud.
01:06:30.239 --> 01:06:36.719
And I'm glad because like a few hours before the game, we were like, should we put our tickets up on Ticketmaster?
01:06:37.119 --> 01:06:37.360
Same.
01:06:37.440 --> 01:06:38.320
We were like playing around.
01:06:39.519 --> 01:06:41.360
We could just watch it from T from the Couch.
01:06:41.519 --> 01:06:43.519
And no, I was like, we should go.
01:06:43.599 --> 01:06:44.239
We should be loud.
01:06:44.480 --> 01:06:46.320
It felt, yeah, it felt important.
01:06:46.559 --> 01:06:47.599
It felt more than basketball.
01:06:47.679 --> 01:06:58.480
It felt like I would I literally said to run, I was just like, I don't know, there's like some like racial stuff too that I'm just like, I I want and expect more from allies.
01:06:58.639 --> 01:06:58.880
Yeah.
01:06:59.039 --> 01:07:04.559
And then I was like, well, I don't really feel like I can say that if I can't show up for the trans community.
01:07:04.880 --> 01:07:05.280
Yeah.
01:07:05.599 --> 01:07:18.239
So that's like I was like, even if I don't like attend the pregame protest, even like I was just like, but just my presence being there and making sure that someone else isn't taking that, taking up that space.
01:07:18.559 --> 01:07:18.880
Agree.
01:07:19.440 --> 01:07:22.159
And you know, it's the little things you do what you can.
01:07:22.400 --> 01:07:22.880
100%.
01:07:23.280 --> 01:07:25.039
Just felt like it was a little hypocritical.
01:07:25.199 --> 01:07:25.440
Yeah.
01:07:25.599 --> 01:07:26.079
You know.
01:07:26.400 --> 01:07:31.119
So but all that to say, this is a pro trans podcast.
01:07:31.360 --> 01:07:31.679
100%.
01:07:32.079 --> 01:07:32.880
If you didn't know that already.
01:07:32.960 --> 01:07:34.239
Yeah, if you if you if you didn't know that already.
01:07:34.400 --> 01:07:36.800
If you had any questions, if you don't know, now you know.
01:07:36.960 --> 01:07:37.920
Now you know.
01:07:39.039 --> 01:07:39.440
Yeah.
01:07:39.599 --> 01:07:52.320
Well, I mean, I guess we'll we'll see where the Liberty Net out in these next couple of games, because I do feel like a lot of team records are very close to each other, so really anything can happen.
01:07:52.880 --> 01:07:56.960
But I do have a feeling that we'll make the playoffs.
01:07:57.280 --> 01:07:57.920
That we will.
01:07:58.079 --> 01:07:58.559
Yeah.
01:07:58.880 --> 01:07:59.760
I have a feeling.
01:08:00.079 --> 01:08:02.159
I have a feeling we will as well.
01:08:02.400 --> 01:08:04.239
And I'm happy that Leo's back and stuff.
01:08:04.320 --> 01:08:09.920
I just like it has just felt like such a chore to watch the Liberty.
01:08:10.159 --> 01:08:18.800
And we talked about this a little bit too, just like watching the W right now has felt so hard because of all of the extra political conversation that's happening around it.
01:08:18.880 --> 01:08:22.720
It's like sucking the f the fun and the joy out of the league.
01:08:22.800 --> 01:08:23.119
I don't know.
01:08:23.359 --> 01:08:27.439
And it's like, why why why do they go have to go and ruin something good?
01:08:27.520 --> 01:08:28.079
You know what I mean?
01:08:28.319 --> 01:08:29.439
It's so exhausting.
01:08:29.600 --> 01:08:32.319
I've I miss when they didn't care about us.
01:08:32.640 --> 01:08:33.920
I do too, kinda.
01:08:34.159 --> 01:08:34.560
Yeah.
01:08:34.880 --> 01:08:36.159
Which is really sad.
01:08:36.880 --> 01:08:44.079
And like I don't like that people are arguing, like, oh well, this is what happens, you know, you wanted all this attention and now you got it and now you don't like it.
01:08:44.159 --> 01:08:48.960
And it's just like, but it's not even that's not even nobody's throwing dildos at NBA games.
01:08:49.119 --> 01:08:49.520
Right.
01:08:49.680 --> 01:08:50.880
Like, ugh.
01:08:51.119 --> 01:08:58.239
It's yeah, it just says a lot about how people feel about women's sports, and it was never about women's sports.
01:08:58.720 --> 01:08:59.520
Yeah, and about women.
01:08:59.840 --> 01:09:01.199
Yes, that's what I meant for real.
01:09:01.279 --> 01:09:02.960
Actually, America hates women.
01:09:03.119 --> 01:09:04.319
Yeah, they do.
01:09:04.399 --> 01:09:07.039
And I honestly, I say it all the time.
01:09:07.199 --> 01:09:08.560
Most men don't like women.
01:09:08.800 --> 01:09:09.119
Yep.
01:09:09.359 --> 01:09:10.880
Most men do not like women.
01:09:11.039 --> 01:09:13.199
Like they just want male affirmation.
01:09:13.359 --> 01:09:13.840
Yeah.
01:09:14.159 --> 01:09:21.520
So yeah, I mean, that said on that, I guess we'll see how the rest of the season's the season goes, and and we'll go from there.
01:09:21.600 --> 01:09:24.239
I uh this episode, I don't think we're gonna have an overtime.
01:09:24.399 --> 01:09:34.159
No, and we're not gonna have a 24-second shot clock because I've already spent more than 24 seconds talking about uh the anti-trans movement and Sophie Cuntingham.
01:09:34.319 --> 01:09:35.439
Sophie Cuntingham.
01:09:35.760 --> 01:09:40.399
So with that, we're gonna we're gonna end this episode, episode 19.
01:09:41.119 --> 01:09:41.760
Y'all.
01:09:42.079 --> 01:09:44.079
Wow, that's pretty incredible.
01:09:44.960 --> 01:09:48.079
I think our offseason is coming up soon, right after the playoffs.
01:09:48.239 --> 01:09:50.640
Yeah, but then we're uh and then unrivaled.
01:09:50.800 --> 01:09:52.880
Just for a little, just so it's just a little break, a little break.
01:09:53.119 --> 01:09:53.520
You know what?
01:09:53.600 --> 01:09:55.520
Okay, sorry, the quick side note.
01:09:55.680 --> 01:09:58.560
Do we think Unrivaled's gonna be in Miami or somewhere else?
01:09:58.720 --> 01:10:00.399
I think it'll be primarily Miami.
01:10:00.560 --> 01:10:01.279
Okay, okay, cool.
01:10:01.439 --> 01:10:03.680
But I do think they'll probably do some more road stops.
01:10:03.920 --> 01:10:04.479
Yeah, yeah.
01:10:04.560 --> 01:10:05.039
Okay, cool.
01:10:05.119 --> 01:10:08.479
Because like they have their whole facility in Miami, it's like not the same as the dub.
01:10:08.720 --> 01:10:12.319
Like, what does the infrastructure look like for providing the same benefits?
01:10:12.560 --> 01:10:17.920
Okay, but I I do wonder how Project B is gonna impact that.
01:10:18.560 --> 01:10:19.359
True.
01:10:19.920 --> 01:10:21.600
I kind of forgot about Project B.
01:10:21.920 --> 01:10:27.760
Yeah, I only remembered it because AZ is supposed to play in it, which I thought was interesting because she was allegedly unrivaled.
01:10:28.000 --> 01:10:30.720
Um she ain't doing shit.
01:10:31.840 --> 01:10:35.119
And NECA is supposed to play in Unrivaled?
01:10:35.439 --> 01:10:36.560
No, in Project B.
01:10:38.800 --> 01:10:39.439
I think.
01:10:39.760 --> 01:10:40.079
Yeah.
01:10:40.479 --> 01:10:44.960
So how can so we'll find out.
01:10:45.119 --> 01:10:46.560
What does it mean when you retire?
01:10:47.119 --> 01:10:48.319
That's a really great question.
01:10:48.640 --> 01:10:51.600
Well, because that's why I had that question around Beck Allen.
01:10:52.720 --> 01:10:53.359
I know.
01:10:54.000 --> 01:10:57.520
Okay, well, if you're listening and you're retired, let me know.
01:10:58.319 --> 01:10:58.800
Tell us.
01:10:59.039 --> 01:10:59.680
Yeah.
01:11:00.000 --> 01:11:00.319
Okay.
01:11:00.560 --> 01:11:00.720
Okay.
01:11:01.119 --> 01:11:03.439
Anyway, that great episode.
01:11:03.600 --> 01:11:04.159
Great episode.
01:11:04.399 --> 01:11:04.960
Great episode.
01:11:05.119 --> 01:11:07.119
Lots of things moving, lots of things cooking.
01:11:07.359 --> 01:11:13.119
Playoffs should be really exciting, and if deliberately don't make it, I will be rooting, using all my energy to root against Indiana.
01:11:13.359 --> 01:11:13.920
Of course.
01:11:14.079 --> 01:11:14.399
Yeah.
01:11:14.800 --> 01:11:15.760
Never Indiana.
01:11:16.000 --> 01:11:16.399
Never.
01:11:16.640 --> 01:11:16.880
Okay.
