You like a little of inhaling, don't you? Yeah, I love it. Did you not mean this sincerely? you know, ballplayers, you know, like Dan Marino, would always play Frank Sinatra, believe it or not, in his headphones before a big Miami-Dompson game. When you found yourself in a situation where you had to be really tough or get fired up to do something in military fashion, did you play music? Did you rely on music or not really? You know, you're going to laugh at this, but I remember sitting there, and we're in Fallujah, we're about to go out on an op, and it was one of those like, hey, everybody might not come home ops. And I put on Abba dancing queen, and everybody looked at me, it wasTF dude like I'm a 250 pound guy |
| 1:45.0 | I'm the tiny guy and they're like what's going on is there are you in the closet |
| 1:48.5 | you're not telling us something or whatever and within 30 seconds of everybody |

But I love that song, too. And listen, Carl, you got the biggest arms, basically of anybody I know, I think bigger than Hulk Hogan. So you don't got to prove your sexual liking to me. But it's funny that that song, I love that song, too. Dancing Queen by Abba got you all fired up. |
| 2:34.9 | Let's get to yesterday. I know you watch President Trump. I know you watch Pete Hexeth and all those guys. |
| 2:39.9 | I thought it was a very important couple of hours. How did you think our leaders did? |
| 2:45.7 | I think Pete Hegseff knocked it out of the park. And, you. And there's stronger words than that for it. |
| 2:52.5 | But it's, you know, back in 2010, I wrote a book called Battle on the Home Front, which |
