| 0:00.0 | Hey, what's going on, everybody? It's Bill Burr, and it's time for the Thursday afternoon just before Friday, Monday morning podcast. |
| 0:07.0 | I'm just checking in on you. Obviously, it's video. Whenever we have video, that means I have a guest, and I never have a guest on unless it's somebody that I love, I admire, a special guest, and I can't believe that we got this guy on the podcast. Today, |
| 0:22.0 | we have one of the greatest motorcycle champion racers ever. Fast Freddy Spencer coming here |
| 0:31.2 | on the Thursday afternoon just before Friday, Monday morning podcast. Three-time world champion. |
| 0:39.1 | I mean, I go through the whole list here. |
| 0:44.3 | It's like an IMDB page of like Morgan Freeman, all the stuff that you won. Youngest MotoGP champion up until a few years ago. And then the most impressive thing that they say will never |

| 1:33.1 | were just so dominant and the cars were so wide, like there was no passing. |
| 1:38.2 | And I just found that, you know, if Lewis made it to the, it was a race to the first turn. |
| 1:44.0 | And then it was just like, you know, 50 parade laps, not parade, but you know what I mean. |
| 1:48.1 | Yeah, I do. I do. We call it kind of a procession. The one thing that we have on motorcycles, and I know this, I know that you can appreciate this, because I know you ride. I know you go out to the airport and you ride out at the |
