That is commitment.

And they were at that fantastic gold medal match in Women's beach volleyball, which we'll also get to. Yeah, I bet they were cheering for Canada. I hope they were. I hope they were. But they didn't cheer hard enough. No, we're happy you guys are joining us. Kids go to bed, though. Yeah, you can go to bed. You can catch it the next morning. Go night You can see it in the morning There will be spoilers here for day 14 action in Paris This is our third Friday night in a row guys I don't like that sentence I don't like it Only three shows left I will say we won't get to everything that happened today in Paris but'll try our best. But apologies if we don't touch on something that you were hoping we were going to address. Tonight's drink of choice, we timed this perfectly. Yes. We have the Caesar cocktail from Canada. A majestic Canadian drink. It's a meal. Yes. Not a drink. How do we say cheers in Canada? DeGuard, eh? Oh, cheers, bud. Cheers, but. Cheers, boy. Cheers, yeah, hoasers. Leaves will get them next year, bud. A Caesar is a... Oh, it's so good. I just got a bunch of celery in my eye. It's a delicious combination of vodka, Clamato, hot sauce, Worcestershire.

Usually it's rimmed with celery salt,

but I'm anti that. I just put it right in.

Yeah, we just put it in. Salary salt in the actual cocktail.

And then you garnish with celery.

Normally, I would garnish with a lot of other stuff,

but eating doesn't really, like, translate well on a podcast.

Right.

So we would maybe have some spicy beans, some olives, some bacon maybe.

Maybe even like salami in a little shank.

Yeah.
