0:00.0 | Hey, folks. Have you seen this news about crowd strike? |
0:19.0 | Apparently, the crowd and Olympic boxing went on strike because it lasted only 46 seconds. |
0:25.2 | I mean, yeah, I guess apart from anything else, imagine having like ringside tickets to that |
0:31.0 | boxing match and you just, you're in there for like a minute and a half and then everyone |
0:37.3 | goes insane about it. |
0:39.3 | It's the one Olympic event you're able to get tickets to see. You're like, oh, I'm really going |

1:33.8 | paying. The whole thing is a scam, it's rigged, and it's rigged against the interest of you, |
1:38.8 | the consumer. |
1:39.8 | I would argue that if you're in a combat sport, you and you're a participant, like, your |
1:44.7 | ambition is to probably make it last for as short as possible. |
1:47.3 | Yeah, because otherwise, otherwise they're hitting you, right? |
1:49.7 | You don't want to be doing Rocky, like Rocky movies every time you're in the ring, right? |
