I know what you're talking about.

Not like every year, but a handful of times going through school.

You'd go to like the school gym and they'd test your eyes and they would test. Maybe it was in middle school. I don't know. But yeah, they basically found out he was legally deaf. Actually, there's a pretty funny story of that too. He was always my linemate in hockey. And I'd be like, Sean, Sean. Or I'll use a different name here just so we don't act like exploit them.

Probably okay. Yeah, I can't imagine this. He's not listening in any podcast. He probably doesn't care. Yeah, so I'm like, Sean, Sean, pass the puck. And like, he would just be looking down and, like, do his thing. And everyone, like, I was on his line since I was a little kid

we'd always be on the same line for some reason and everyone thought he was a puck hog but it turns

out we found out in high school that he's just legally deaf and he couldn't hear me yelling did he

not know that he yeah he didn't know I was yelling at him yeah but but wasn't he like I literally

can't hear you obviously it's not like fully, but he just couldn't hear very well clearly.

And it was it was bad enough where he was legally deaf.

So are you legally deaf?

So that's what made me wonder, when did you find out that you were legally deaf?

Because you can only hear in one ear.

Well, I'm not legally.

Or what do you mean when you say legally deaf?

I'm sure. I'm not legally. What do you mean when you say legally deaf? I'm sure.

I don't know.

I would imagine that you would be legally deaf if you can't hear out of one ear.

I was like 12 years old and I got really sick, like vertigo or whatever, like inner ear thing.

Kind of just realized I couldn't hear out of it.

Went into the doctor and they said I had a

virus that messed up my ear yeah oh I thought it was just from like loud noises and maybe a firecracker

or something like that but it so it was a sickness like a fluky virus like they explained it a virus
