Hey, it's Tony. On today's show, we will talk to Taylor Twelman, obviously about soccer,

0:04.0

but also about one of the big regrets in his life. And we will also talk to Ron Flatter

0:07.4

about how realistic it will be to have a horse named Lechizzerie. But first, Commerce.

Previously, on the Tony Cornheiser show.

0:19.3

Which is why we're treating this more like a TV show,

0:24.1

because what's the difference anymore between a podcast and a TV show, right?

0:28.7

Like, this is...

0:29.1

Well, I have a difference.

0:30.3

Mine is not on TV.

0:31.7

We have no video component very deliberately, very deliberately.

0:35.8

Yes, well, we see you on TV every freaking day.

0:40.1

You don't need more of that face.

The Tony Cornizer show is on now.

Into the night against the Orioles. And then there was a ground ball single and then a solid single and the manager came out and took him out, which is the right thing to do.

2:21.6

Then a reliever came in and immediately allowed two runs.

2:24.7

And I thought, and then they had base, they had people on the basis.
