And we're live. Is this where the smoking tire podcast hits the big 5.0? 50 today, isn't it? 50 fucking weeks of podcasts.

And last week we told you we're going to be here this week. Yes, what fucking here? Yeah, yeah.

You may have noticed that Nino is not here. He's not a team player. He's ice skating with his girlfriend, which is, yeah.

That's a special kind of misery. Nino on skates and an ice. Nino on ice. Yeah. Nino played hockey though. Like for a long time.

He's got to be wearing like, at least for a mission. I have hockey skates. I know, but he'll still.

What might have been moved to New York from Atlanta when I was 10 and they were like, you're going to learn to play hockey. I'm like, what, what's hockey?

Yeah, growing up in Atlanta, like I didn't really know what like ice hockey was. I never heard of lacrosse until I got to college.

Or lacrosse. Yeah, the crosses are very, you know, it's not these. Well, I've been in Colorado. I know that I'm just saying like you can grow up in New York.

Across the Colorado, too, don't they? Yeah. I was like, what is this thing? No, but, but I like I literally like had never ice skated and it was like.

Like to do to something like that, like that you've never even thought of like doing or done for. I mean, I know it seems silly for a 10 year old kid to not know what like ice skating is.

But like they don't really have ice skating. It sounds so much. I mean, it's ice skating. I mean, the first few times it's not easy to do. I mean, it's really fucking hard to learn how to ice skate.

Especially if you're not wearing hockey skates because you've got no fucking ankle. So imagine the fool I made myself in front of my entire like phys ed class in like fourth grade.

Like having never put on a pair of ice skates are like any. Oh, it's a douche. It's rough, too, because the consequences are high.

Like ice hurts. I saw guys skate over someone's arm once was fucked up. I mean, it's been many days when you can go out on the ice and watch somebody go fucking face first and just break their nose on the ice.

Oh, yeah, the old bloody ice. And you see them chiseling the blood off the ice. Not a lot of hockey players are Gillette models.

Yeah, all the all the NHL guys when it's like showing them. They're just.

Larry, Larry Gassilla. Larry Gassilla was both a sort of sometimes model. I took his head shots or the gayest thing we've ever done together.

Do you like the shirt open or close?

He's like on the it was on the dock where Tom's parents keep their boat. And and the guy was like six o'clock in the morning. And the guy who owns the place that came down and started yelling at us and freaking out.

They charge money to shoot here. And I'm like, we're like in high school, bro. We're not paying location fees for this.

And but yeah, he played a lot. He was really good at hockey. I've got this image of him modeling, but with him like rubbing carnival wax carnival wax on his chest.

You know what I have upstairs in a closet in a box. The original Larry Gassilla moderate modeling.
