It is that time of week where we have a guest to join us. Check them out on FS 1, 3 o'clock Eastern. First things first. Nick Wright was going on. Bo, great to see you. Great to talk to you. How are you this morning? Dude, I'm good. I'm loving that

like we're getting to a place. It's very interesting. And I don't think people understand this.

0:42.7

You and I have more times than people would recognize where we are in dead on alignment, right?

0:50.2

Where we will, I will be at your house and we're talking about something and one goes first and the other is like, oh, that is exactly what I was going to say, which makes it even more fun to me when we are completely divergent or largely divergent, which is often in spirit, usually your discrimination against skinny people, which I find to be odd because you're kind in the crew, right?

Joe L.M.B. definitely plays the, the shield game. Would you bring them to the press conference

2:13.7

after a four-0 sweep? Come on, man, you can't do that. I don't know what his intention is,

2:18.7

2:27.1

which is if there's any chance, this tough questions need to be asked. I shouldn't bring my kids.
