0:00.0	And away we go, episode 324 of the Algoldi podcast, it is Friday, May 27, 2022, the Friday
0:29.2	before Memorial Day weekend. If you are supposed to work on this Friday, the expectation is that you
0:37.2	will get no work done, okay? Zero work done and that's okay, all right? There are some work days
0:43.4	on which you are excused from getting actual work done at work. The Friday before Memorial Day
0:50.5	weekend is one of those days. Memorial Day weekend really is a two-pronged weekend because on the
0:56.5	one hand, of course, Memorial Day is meant to honor those in our military who have died serving
1:03.6	our country. I mean, it is a solemn holiday, right? And let me say right now, a salute, a thank you
1:09.4	to all of those who have died serving our country. But, of course, Memorial Day weekend also
1:16.1	is the unofficial start of summer, right? The weather finally is warm. You have baseball, you have

1:48.6	yourself, guess who apparently was really enjoying himself on Twitter on Thursday.
1:57.9	The defensive coordinator of our commanders, Jack Del Rio. Jack Del Rio's tweets have been a
2:07.2	topic in the past for a variety of reasons, but there were two tweets from Jack on Thursday that
2:14.4	really stood out. One was him bizarrely responding to a tweet from the official Twitter account
2:24.1	of the wizards announcing the hiring of Wes Oncel Jr. as head coach. The tweet was from July 17th,
2:33.9	2021. As no, you're not crazy. The wizards didn't just hire Wes Oncel Jr. as head coach. The
2:41.9	wizards hired Wes Jr. as head coach last summer. And I don't know if Jack got confused and thought
2:48.5	that the wizards had just hired Wes Jr. I don't know if Jack just felt like he needed to congratulate
2:55.0	Wes Jr. 10 months later on getting the job of wizards head coach. But Jack Del Rio on Thursday night
