| 0:00.0 | So after we record today, I'm getting in my car, actually I'm not getting in my car. |
| 0:07.0 | That's ironic. I'm getting in my dad's car and I'm driving my dad's car with a trailer to Tennessee to pick up a motor for my car because the motor in my car is a solid piece of metal with no moving parts anymore. |
| 0:23.0 | That sounds like a cease. |
| 0:25.0 | It is absolutely seized. |
| 0:27.0 | Where were you when this happened? |
| 0:29.0 | I was at a soccer practice watching my kids practice soccer or something. I don't know what I was doing. I was somewhere else. |
| 0:37.0 | My wife took the car to go pick up food for everybody and bring it back to soccer tryouts. That's what it was. |

| 1:21.0 | So then she calls me and says, well, it just cut off on me in the middle of the road. |
| 1:25.0 | And I had enough momentum to pull into this parking lot where we are. And I've got it parked and everything. |
| 1:29.0 | But it won't crank. It won't start. |
| 1:32.0 | So long story, a little bit shorter. |
| 1:36.0 | I had it towed to a shop that I've used before. That's worked on it before. |
| 1:41.0 | Good group of guys. And so the guy called me back and said, |
