0:00.0	Hey guys, just a couple of things before we get into the latest episode of the podcast.
0:05.3	First of all, it's so good to be home from California. I'm back at the beach, surf casting,
0:11.6	going for striped bass, just relaxing and enjoying the day. I'm doing what's called
0:17.6	reweezing. That's right, reweezing. Reweezing to me is fishing on a day like this, just living
0:23.4	in the freaking moment. Arpal Carl totally understood that. I hope you take that from Carl and
0:31.4	use that for the rest of your life to really enjoy the moment with the people around you.
0:36.1	And remember this, the future don't mean shit, the past don't mean shit. No matter
0:41.5	right here, right now. The Chipped California was a complete and utter success.
0:48.9	The love for Carl out there was equal to the love for him in New York, which was equal to
0:53.7	the love for him in Miami. Just so many great people out there, so many new friends and old friends.
1:01.1	It was a great hang. I was invited out there by Guy Fieri because he's doing a very special

1:17.9	somewhere around April 1st. It's like an April Fool's Day show. And a couple of things about Guy
1:23.4	Fieri. This guy is so unbelievable. The love and respect he showed for Carl was just second to
1:32.0	none. He threw a celebration party that was amazing. He opened up his house. I was coming and going
1:38.8	to Guy's house off and on. There was one party where it was for everybody that was part of the
1:43.8	Food Network special tribute show for Carl. And then he calls me and goes, oh, you coming back
1:50.0	to my house? I'm like, I thought we did it already. Guy, he goes, no, man, I'm having a housewarming
1:54.4	party and I want you to be there. So me and Matt Farr for the smoking tire, we drove up and
2:00.8	right away we felt like we shouldn't belong here because it was really mostly his friends and family.
2:08.1	And this is the type of guy Guy Guy is. He had us at his dream home that took a couple of years
