Bobby's dog and why Bobby's not joining us is Bobby's sweet dog Lucy has unfortunately passed away this really only adds to what has been a pretty pretty difficult year for the talking giants crew as a whole but especially Bobby.

So Bobby's going to take his time you know please please think of Bobby think of Lucy. I mean Lucy. I think has been around with Bobby for you know almost eight years maybe even a little bit longer than that.

Bobby's moved from place to place through various points in his life and Lucy's been there every step of the way for him and obviously like I said Danny Lucy has been the third co host to talk and giants from time to time.

So we're thinking you Bobby we're thinking you Lucy. I am not looking forward to the day where I have to say goodbye to my first dog so we're thinking Bobby and Bobby will be back soon but we're thinking again we got you covered.

No, yeah it's always hard to have the put down and dog especially a dog that been such a big part of one's life but yeah I mean he'll be back we're all thinking you Bobby will get better at one point but yeah I mean I guess this podcast about talking giants let's talk some giants.

Yeah that's that's what we're doing we trucked we know we trucked along after Anthony you know we obviously we took a we took a couple days to to grieve personally but you know why we're here is.

To talk giants and why we're here is to be a distraction for you know all the crappiness that's happening around us in this world you know footballs the distraction away from your from your life the giants are distraction especially when they're good and they're not causing his heartburn and they're not giving us great hairs but that's what we're going to do that and we're going to keep on trucking along and it's fourth of July week.

So Danny and I were going to have some fun with the special episode I'll get to the format in a few minutes because we have some news to touch on and I have some housekeeping things that I want to take care of.

I also want to graduate you on graduating high school so tell us a little bit about that.

Oh yeah thank you about that I mean if you told me 13 years ago I would be graduated from high school during the middle of a pandemic that I would have been like okay yeah that that would be fun but no I mean surprisingly I did graduate high school and of course obviously under a pandemic but you know it was good had some people over a socially distance get together let's make that clear right socially distance no one come out.

if I come the fall hopefully at least. Yeah and you're making the smart decision where you're actually doing what you're supposed to do with studying and wanting to get into media and wanting to get into whether it's journalism or getting getting into sports unlike Bobby and I where we took very unconventional paths of getting here you will actually have the advantage believe it or not Danny King so congratulations you took some awesome graduation photos you know with the black shirt it was a tough language.

It was tough and the the sunglasses to with the beautiful view I think you're on some sort of bridge overlooking water it was awesome some awesome graduation photos I don't know if that would have happened if not for this interesting circumstance and this interesting life that we're living right now so you know what you take you take what you can get when life gives you lemons you make lemonade and that's your life philosophy Danny.

Now I would have to listen to the boring speeches here the valedictorian speech and the saloon to Torian I would have I would have fallen asleep but it was nice and simple I got out there got some nice photos even gave me some gifts like they they never give you gifts that graduation I got a $50.000 gift card right I'm ballin out in these streets right now.
