| 0:00.0 | Tuesday, July 7 edition of PFT PM. |
| 0:13.5 | Several things to get to today. |
| 0:14.7 | We're still in the technically slow time, but this year more than ever, there is no slow time, especially when there's another |
| 0:21.9 | major sporting event going on that I'll be talking about in a second. First, some old business. |
| 0:27.7 | I need to do that, like they do at meetings, Roberts Rules of Order. Old business, new business, |
| 0:33.6 | old business. Yesterday, I told the story about my experience with a yellow jacket nest, which is due to |
| 0:44.3 | be eradicated today by an exterminator. |
| 0:47.9 | I'm not messing with it. |
| 0:49.5 | My nephew had one at his house, hole in the ground. |

| 1:30.1 | will be getting rid of the hornet nest anyway. After I finished yesterday, I was texting with Gary, |
| 1:37.9 | who was producing the show, and I mentioned that I could have ended up like McCauley Calkin in the |
| 1:43.9 | early 90s film My Girl. |
| 1:46.8 | I wasn't even 100% sure that that was the title, but it is My Girl. |
| 1:50.4 | And the reason I know that, I have no control over what clips they decide to make and put on YouTube. |
| 1:56.8 | And I was kind of surprised that the Yellow Jacket story was worthy of its own YouTube clip, |
| 2:05.1 | which is fine. It's fine. It's not my job. I don't make the decisions as to what gets clipped. |
