0:00.0	Welcome to the Win Make Give podcast, Chad Heim's here.
0:10.9	Bob, Stuart over there.
0:12.3	Bob, how are you doing today?
0:15.1	I don't know.
0:16.0	If I'm being completely honest, I'm still reeling from my Mariners getting knocked out of the playoffs by the Blue Jays on a late home run in the seventh game. I'm just, I'm still reeling.
0:27.1	Well, Bob, I understand that. And folks, we want these episodes to be evergreen. And the content will be even if the beginning is a little timely, shall we say, Bob, I want to remind you, when my Blue Jays win this World
0:40.8	Series, you're showing up in a Blue J hat to the next podcast recording.
0:45.4	I did not burn it.
0:47.0	I know you have one and you have time to still get it.
0:50.5	We still have a few days until the Blue Jays win this thing.
0:52.8	I said that my kids and I were going to go out in the front yard and burn the Blue Jays hat, but I didn't do it. I've got it. We still have a few days until the Blue Jays win this.

1:27.2	Bob, before you got here, that our listener has an
1:30.3	amazing story over what happened for him over the last 48 to 72 hours that I want to hear
1:37.3	a little bit more about. And then I don't think I'm going to talk to him for the rest of the
1:41.3	podcast. You might be on your own, Bob's story. I want to welcome to the Win May Give podcast. My new friend, Kwong Fom, welcome to WinMake-Giv.
1:51.6	Well, Chad and Bob, a pleasure to be here. What a World Series. What a World Series.
1:58.1	America's favorite pastime. And I must say it's the first activity that helped me integrate
2:04.6	to America coming to Southern California following the fall of Saigon, the end of the Vietnam War.
2:10.5	I was the 11-year-old kid. Some kids said, hey, you want to play a new sport?
