0:00.0	Fish font. Fish font. That's the nothing personal word of the day. It's Yiddish I'm feeling
0:15.2	in a Yiddish sort of mood. I guess because I watched on Orthodox. And I like speaking
0:22.9	Yiddish from time to time. Fish font means finished as in finito, as in no moss, as
0:29.4	in fin ear. That's the French verb to be finished to finish. Who's finished? I got an update.
0:38.6	Our main man, Kyle Larson. Remember the NASCAR dude. Remember the guy who's doing eye racing?
0:47.4	The guy brought up through the NASCAR diversity program because he's half Japanese. We talked
0:52.0	about him yesterday. You're loyal. You listen to yesterday's nothing personal. And we talked

1:41.9	parentheticals in the comments that Kyle made when he used the N word. That's me saying what he
1:47.2	did in case you can't remember what I said yesterday and what he said yesterday. The comments that
1:52.8	Kyle made were both offensive and unacceptable, especially given the values of our organization.
1:59.2	All right, I got to stop right there, especially given the values of organization. What organization
2:05.3	has values where racism is okay? I'm just curious. Why do you write an statement, especially given
2:13.7	the values of organization? Because it is especially. If our organization had different values,
2:19.5	we may have just suspended him and not actually terminated him. Or if he were one of the best drivers
2:26.4	and racers on the circuit, we would have really had to evaluate the situation. But given the values
