This is an I-Heart podcast.

Guaranteed Human.

Hey, everybody.

It's Wednesday, June 5th, 2024.

Welcome to the NFL fantasy football podcast where we are praying for our friend Michael Flore Florio. It's me and your man, M.G. Marcus Grant, joined by Lequan Jones. No Michael F. Florio today, as you probably could guess, by the intro, where it is. So by the time we release this, by the time you guys are hearing this, ideally Florio is going to be in the air. Is that what we believe? Hopefully. Hopefully. I mean, he's on a nine hour delay right now. So hopefully he's getting seated right now and he's on his way. Yeah. You know, he's going to take a couple days. Head back home to New York. see some family. Just kind of get in the town for a couple days.

Yeah, you know, stuff like that.

And he texts us, or he actually tweets out this morning that he's on a nine-hour delay because of some sort of mechanical issue with the plane.

I believe at last check, he was able to get a standby flight that was going to leave at noon

Pacific time which you know obviously several hours later but not a whole nine hour delay

yeah um so hopefully again by the time this is released and out into the wild hopefully

florio has been in the air for a couple of hours and is on his way home. Um, that air travel is rough, bro. It is. It's been bad lately. Like I've been hearing delays from my friends and now Florio. It's like, what is going on with these planes, man? I don't know. It's, it's rough. I mean, look, here's the thing. As long as the plane stays intact all the way from

here to York, that's the important part. You know, I mean, I'll take a nine hour delay for that.

Right. I mean, that's better than the, you know, door flying off somewhere over like, duct tape on

the side of the plane. Like, yeah, we'll get there. Don't need that. Don't need that. I'll tell you this. Um, like, train travel is awesome.

And the only disadvantage for train travel is that obviously it's slower. Like if you,

but if you have the time to travel like long distances by train, it is worth it. I don't

if you've ever done it.

I haven't done it.

The furthest I did was Jersey to New York. And that's like, yeah, that's like almost like a commuter train, right? You know, you're wasted by the time you get there. It's all good. But like, yeah, no, like I've done. So I've done, and I had no intention of talking about train travel on this show, but this is what happens in June.

I've gone from L.A. to Dallas.

Wow. I've gone from L.A. to Portland, Portland, Oregon. Wow. I didn't even know they... Okay. Oh, yeah. No, it's great. It is great, especially because, like, you know, you spring for the cabin. Like, you get your own, I got my own little cabin and stuff. You know, you can, like, you know, look, I'll be honest with you. Like, because, like, you don't have to go through heavy layers of security or anything like that. So I had my backpack. I bought a, I brought a bottle of whiskey and a book. And so in the evening, I'm just sitting in my room. I'm sipping whiskey. I'm reading a book.

You know, you can order, you can either go to the dining car and have food or if you don't. Like, you can ask the porter to bring your meal to you. I was like, hey, you know, I just want like a cheeseburger. Can you bring it at seven o'clock? Seven o'clock on the dot. They knock on the door. there's your food.
