Hey guys. Hey, hey, hey, welcome to the pod. Happy Sunday night, Monday morning, whenever you're listening, we have no intro. It's fucking awesome. Let's get into it. What do you guys up to? Well, we had a really big members sent weekend. Yeah, very members tent. So for pod listeners, if you recall, probably six, seven weeks ago, we had members of the Tommy group on the podcast and the Tommy group.

0:30.9

Is the collective at USC that helps facilitate the NIL sponsorship money for the players. Yeah. And this is for USC. And it was our friend, John Turgian, Kishan Johnson, you know, very famous USC alumnus TV personality.

0:53.6

And their partner, Avi, who was also on the podcast, and we had jokingly said on one of the episodes, hey, if you're ever firing Tommy group, it were fires up that plane to go to the together, one of the big games, let us know.

1:09.8

Yeah, it's been my Colorado. We get a text a week or two later. He's like, we're going to Notre Dame. Do you guys want to join? And I'm like, yeah, I've never been in Notre Dame game. Yeah. And if you're a USC or a Notre Dame fan, it's like a hundred year old rivalry. Oh, USC, it's called for any football fan. It's one of the library. Yeah, it's one of the most like sacred games that happens every year. It's like, you know, there's probably Michigan, Ohio State.

1:37.3

It's like that kind of stuff. Yeah, like probably 30 big games that happen like that that are like hundred year old games. And so USC, Notre Dame is a huge one. And so, you know, got invited on an ice. So, uh,

1:53.3

obviously just hooked us up, obviously, flew us there in great plane. And then it was a great plane. It was a commercial flight. It's one of those van ice flights.

2:07.3

And just like as him, his wife, he's Sean Johnson, Lendale White, another USC star, our good friend, Alex Holmes, also USC alumnus and star athlete there. And just we go into Chicago. Yeah.

2:27.3

Yeah. And it gets really members tent after what give you the full ride. So we go to Chicago. We go to dinner at, you know, some steakhouse. It was fun. We just, it was like a mellow night, because we knew the next day was going to like long. Yeah.

2:43.2

So Chicago night, everyone, good meal, go back to hotel, go to sleep. Yeah.

2:50.5

Morning, wake up. Everyone's, you know, doing their own thing, uh, go have, you know, a nice deep dish pizza. Yeah, of course. That's what you do. Yeah. And then, you know, a lot of people flying to Chicago, driving to South Bend, Indiana, I think it's like two hours away.

3:07.6

And so I, that's what assume we're doing. No, no, what are you doing helicopter? Just flew right into South Bend. Oh, and I think the most fascinating thing about flying in the South Bend.

3:19.2

This is South Bend, Indiana. I've never been. Wait, did you fly from Chicago to South Bend? It's like a 15 minute flight. It's like playing the Palm Span. Yeah. It's actually even more interesting about that, like 20 minute journey.

3:33.3

Was that the plane was stocked with food and snacks and drinks. And it's 20 minutes. Yeah. Well, great. That is. That's your job. I mean, that's the ultimate luxury. Yeah.

3:47.4

What's the, like, what's a more

3:51.8

brutally life-enhancing luxury? That's it. There's nothing. It was, it was. I would say chef at home, like I think having a chef at home

4:02.3

is attainable luxury. It's like a coach bag. You know, that's not expensive. No, that's not fly private. No, that's my point. Yeah. If I would say,

truly, like, if you owned a plane and you could just fly, you could afford to go wherever you want, whenever you want. The world would, like, become different. Yeah.

4:42.8

Like, you know what I mean? Like, you should, you should, you could go to the Notre Dame game and be back the same day. I mean, by the way, we, we'll talk about the whole experience. We land in South Bend.
