Hey, Isabella, did you see, I have like a couple scary AI headlines to toss at you. Did you see they're letting Waymo's go on the highway now? Yes. Yes, I did. And... How do we feel about that? I don't know. I'm scared for, I'm scared for the ones that specifically, because don't they do basically like Uber, too? Like they will deliver people. I think so. We don't have these, right? These are not in New York. I don't think we're doing Waymo's here. No, I've never seen one. I've seen a lot of them in San Francisco, though, which is scary. Yeah, I don't know. Is that, are we, am I being bigoted when I say I don't want to, I don't want one of those to drive me around? Is that bad? Like, am I, should I be reevaluating that, but I don't want one of those to drive me around. Is that bad? Like am I, should I be

reevaluating that? But I don't want one of those driving me around. I mean, I guess the one plus side is that if you're going to be like a backseat driver in one of those, you don't have, no one's receiving your rage. Right, you're yelling at nobody. And same thing with like road rage. It's like if I want to yell at a driver and then I look and there's no driver there. It's like, I know, I'm like,

there's like no one there. So then I'm just

going to flip this whole car off. That's fine. It's like if I want to yell at a driver and then I look and there's no driver there. I know. I'm like,

there's like no one there.

So I'm just going to flip this whole car off.

That's fine by me. Hello?

Ooh, she didn't yell that bad. She didn't yell that bad because she's not sure how to modulate the volume on this microphone. Welcome to casuals.

Hi.

Our master editor, Chris.

Hey, I like it. It's up. I think I've been saying that every week. And Brady, listen, I called you the guy who knows everything one time in that same episode. I'm pretty sure, is the time you said a WMBA game went a different way than it actually went. And so I don't know what to call you anymore. You were my expert, but I can't, I don't feel confident. So what do you want to be? I just want to be appreciated. Brady's a pre. And then up, and then we have appreciated Brady. Say hi? Hello. That's him. Okay, we've got a lot to get to. Is there ever a show where I go, not much today? Not much to say, no, we have a ton of things to get to. I would like to start by checking our mailbox, seeing if we have any mail, then I'm going to then we're gonna, it's a half yap today.

Can I tease a yap that's coming soon? I think we've got a collision course happening in the NHL right now between fandoms. There is a romance novel, a book, a TV show being made

about a hockey-based gay romance novel.

And those fans are on a collision course with NHL fans in a big way.

I've been watching it kind of fester but blow up a bit online over the last few.

And I'm just going to dig through all of that and then hopefully unpack it for you guys, hopefully this week. But it's just something fascinating. I'm keeping my eyes on. As for today, it's a half-yap. It's going to be guest, I mean, producer participation, because it's just, it's about Kai Trump and her debut in the LPGA. And then we've got NFL action.

We've got MLB Awards because we haven't talked to you guys since then and a bunch of other things in between.

Does that sound good with everybody?

Great.

Let's start with some mail.

Do we have anything?

Chris.
