| 0:00.0 | One of the Ravens guys called me and was like, yeah, we're trying to figure this out. You know, we're going to get this done. Don't worry. Like five minutes later, CJ calls me. It's like, they're backing out. I'm like, holy shit. So I'm like, frozen. I'm like, what the f***? I'm livid, confused the whole nine all in one. Well, I'll tell you what, if you had made a wager or a trade on a prediction market that the |
| 0:28.8 | background for the Max Crosby podcast would be something other than purple on my suggestion, |

| 0:35.1 | I'm surprised. |
| 0:36.3 | It's still Ravens Purple for the background of the Max Crosby podcast, |
| 0:41.3 | but he's back and he's speaking. |
| 0:43.8 | And look, I'm not surprised that he's unhappy. |

| 1:46.1 | this is crushing. |
| 1:47.6 | Like what, like this is, this is not like, oh yeah, great, we made it to the Super Bowl. |
