Cakes was doing that tired stretch and it's infectious.

Oh, yeah. Like, I actually got out of my chair just for a minute because I was, I was almost, I was micro-napping EV. I thought you were. Where? I was in a day, right here. Just during the break, I was sitting here and then I found myself. I just got out and moved. Dude, during the third night that I was playing at the WSOP, like it was around 11 o'clock and still playing poker at that point, two guys at my table were literally falling asleep of the table. Like, they're getting dealt hands. I can relate to that with poker. They're just back like this. Just shit. Like, they didn't miss their hands because people were nudging them and waking them up. But like it's it's an endurance contest, man. You got to be able to stay awake and alert for like 12 plus hours a day. Some guys are just fading late in the evening. Yeah. Totally. You could totally see that. You're just losing it. Yeah.

Of course. I'm so sized not to have to wake up tomorrow.

It's just awesome.

I have to tell you, you know, we've been talking about sleep for 25 years and I've been struggling with sleep lately.

The tart cherry juice, 100% it initiates sleep.

100% the triptophan that's in there, whatever. I take a big swig of it, you know right out of the big thing, or I put it in a cup. And I'm telling you, 45 minutes later, I start dozing off on my computer. And I go, thanks. Time to go to bed. If it works, it works. How many minutes later? I'd say within an hour. Okay. Within an hour. Yeah, so taking at like 7.7.30? You're good. I'm telling you, man, tart cherry juice does trigger sleep. Now, it doesn't mean by the time you go up to stairs that you can retrigure it. But it puts, it starts the process. Yeah. It's incredible so i highly recommend it it's i think

it's nasty i think tart cherry juice tastes horrible but it it does hey if it knocks out it works

for you it initiates a sleep response very good and you're still using the red light yep but the

red i have it on i i don't it's not like i look. I just, I don't really go to my room until I go to bed. So when I go to my room, I turn a red light on and I just go to bed. I'm sleeping better. I think it's taking me six weeks to wean off, whatever. That's what's actually scares me to start drinking again

like like a regular person yeah it obviously screwed up my my sleeping well maybe just stay off

off the booze other way a lot of regular people don't drink no i know but like what regular people

drink like i don't think i had a problem if i drink one or two drinks four or five days a week, I don't think that's abnormal. No, I think that's pretty standard. But the way you said it, you made it seem like it's abnormal to not drink. No, I meant what the way regular people drink, the way regular people. I think for most people our age, it's abnormal to not at least have a few drinks during the week.

Yeah, I think most of the people I hang out with, but they're having a few drinks throughout

the week. Most people my age like to have a beer at the end of the day or two or a glass of

wine. Most people that I come in contact with. In fact, I don't really know anybody that doesn't.

Well, you're sitting next to one that clearly does. Yeah, yeah. I don't really know anybody that doesn't. Well, you're sitting next to one that clearly does. Yeah. I don't really have any during the week. Like, I'll maybe have a beer. Jess and I went out on Saturday and had one beer. Yeah. It's fine. But what my intake was enough that it definitely, and I did it to help me go to sleep. It disturbed my sleep cycle.
