from yesterday. We got this all worked out and fixed and uh it's a tuesday with matt hasselback uh before i get a couple

announcements matt how you do on tuesday i'm good what's up with the mustache though i thought that was

a playoff stash what's going on so so here's the thing it was a playoff stash. My wife hated it.

Dave Pearson hated it.

And a lot of people, other people liked it.

I mean, I don't really care.

I, this is the face I was given.

I'm just doing what I can.

But two days, like a day after the Mariners lost in the playoffs,

Rachel was like, it's kind of growing on me

and i'm like you're the CEO of my face you get to make these calls as soon as you want me to

you know grow beard back the beard's coming back but uh for the time being it's sticking around

all right just yeah i was just curious yeah i know i i hear the disapproval i understand it no it's sticking around all right I was just curious yeah I know I hear the disapproval I understand it

no it's not that you was like it was like wow look at this commitment to his team the

mariners like that's a commitment I was what it was I'm impressed yeah now like now it's like

what are you moving for the dodgers like what's the you know like did you just really? No. If you just really wanted a mustache and you didn't really care that much about the Mariners, then like, that's fine too, but just like, I wasn't sure what the deal was. No, I don't know if I told you this story, but I mean, literally the day after I shaved to have a mustache's first time, I like saw a little girl with a cute little rainbow. Yeah, yeah. I told you that story, right?

So, like, your face tells the same story. It tells the same story, right? So, I mean, you know what? You work with what you got. I did a mustache like that for Movember when Mike Holmgren was the head coach. And it was, it was hilarious. I mean, when you don't wear a mustache, it's like it's like it feels weird, you know?

It's objectively silly. To you and everybody else. Yeah. It is objectively silly. And I will say that like, Gray's able to able, Robbie Uts, like a lot of the guys in the CX locker room are big fans. So they've been, they've been encouraging me. Well, that's good, too. Like, if you're like, hey,'m getting like, I'm getting like the inside scoop from Robbie Oots like when he's coming back. Like, you know, we got this like mustache bond. You know, there's like the smokers bond. There's like all bonds. Yes. You know, like the dipping bond. The mustache bond. That's a real deal. It's a thing. It's a thing. Yeah. So I've got some fun stuff, I think, to talk about with you today.

Before. The mustache bond, that's a real deal. It's a thing. It's a thing.
