[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uhm, the reason I get to cast it for free is because my lovely, lovely little penguin has the ability at level two to reduce the cost of the first magic card I use each turn by one. Angelic pressure.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You know, this really isn't gonna make a difference, but I'm doing it anyway! You've activated my Burst card! Uhm, when an opponent resolves a Spirit's Fund Summon effect, during this turn reduce the BP of all your opponent's Spirits by 1000 for each Nexus they control. Which is zero. But, you activated it, and I want you to know that.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It's three thousand? This is quite the pickle you've put me in. Okay. And, you know, I hate pickles, frankly. Never eat them.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I'm going to kill off Wonderland, Alice. Thank you, Alice.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And now I will... Take that.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I'm sorry about that flower petal. All I have to say is you were a magnificent opponent.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And while I wish that you are destroyed in this dungeon,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Well now that you have bested me and proved yourself to be a worthy opponent, I grant onto you the powers of yellow magic and my penguins and fairies. Lead them into battle in a way that I could not.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] No, you get these ones too. Sorry about that. Okay, great. Thank you.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You're cooking? You mean in your apartment?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Now if you worked for a German paper, you'd be living in an attic. I wouldn't be smelling that.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I am Porphyria, queen of night, death, illness, pestilence, tax season, sinus infections specifically, uhm, and snakes as well.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And curses and blood curses, which you'll become very familiar with, mortal. Are you ready to play a game with me?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It may be your last. For if you defeat me, you can leave this place.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Right? Why not? That's my philosophy as well. In my realm, we do this thing. You might not have heard of it.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] No, I've got it back again now. I feel great. I feel really healthy.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Hmmm. Refresh step? I can refresh nothing. However, I will play Boatrektor.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] While this spirit attacks, it is cursed if one of your opponent's spirits blocks.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Destroy it when the battle ends. I will pay three. I will animate it with two, giving it three thousand BP. But I shall end my turn there.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I can do nothing to block that.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Alright, start step, core step.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I shall play. I shall pay three.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I'm going to attack you with Boatrichter.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Six thousand. What can I do but, uhm, actually, you know, no, I'll just take it.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Alright, start step, core step, draw step, interesting, refresh, step. I shall place burst card, face down, and now I'm going


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] To play a card called Deadly Balance.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Your opponent selects one of their spirits, then select one of your spirits. Destroy both spirits. Ooh, okay. Choose mortal. Interesting.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Wonderful. I shall destroy my Boa Trector.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uhm, paying two, animating it. Oh, and then...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Why not simply play a rotting swamp?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] This is my Nexus. During your attack step, draw a card when one of your spirits is destroyed. Level 2, which this is not yet. Once returned when one of your serpent spirits would be destroyed, you may discard a card to return it to your hand instead.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I attack with Dark Lancer Cavalier at 4000 BP.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It will be destroyed, and because of my Nexus Rotting Swamp, I will draw a card. And alas, goodbye, Dark Lancer Cavalier. And now that my attack step is over, I end my turn.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I am going to block with Boatrick Tor for 3000. Alright. I have nothing to play.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Alas. Okay. Farewell, sweet boa tricktor.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And I can do nothing. Except activate my burst card, Absolute Ice Shield. When you lose life, place a core from your reserve into your life. I will end my turn. Interesting, thank you.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I play Dark Knight Aglavale. When Dark Knight Aglavale is destroyed, draw a card if the spirit has a soul core on it. End at level 2, while the spirit attacks, it is cursed, which means if you block


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Your spirit will be destroyed. Unless, of course, you're immune to my critics.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And while I'm here with just three cores left, I will play the Nexus, Netherworld Depths. Draw a card when one of your opponent's spirits is exhausted. And at level two,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] When one of your spirits is blocked, you may pay one core from this Nexus to destroy your opponent's blocking spirit when the battle ends.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] However, I shall place no cores on the Nexus during this time. I shall simply attack youuuu.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Because of my rotting swamp, lest we forget, I draw a card when one of my spirits is destroyed. And in that case, I shall end my turn.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I can do nothing. I can do nothing.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Core step. Draw step.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Ah, I also draw a card when one of your opponent's spirits is exhausted, so I will just draw a couple more there. Sure, yes.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Interesting, great. Okay, refresh step. Okay. Now we've got something to cook with. Ooh. As they say. I place a burst guard. Is that what they say?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It is after they go to the mortals. They go to the grocery store and they buy produce


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And when they come home they say, now I've got something to prove.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And what it means is they're about to prepare something delicious. That will, uhm, in their case I guess, invigorate them, give them health. In my case it means destroying your life. I see.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Finally, some cannon fodder to cook with.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I shall play Dark Kingsnake Pendocles.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uhm, at level 2 and 3, which this spirit is, select one of your opponent's spirits, remove a core from it, and place it into their trash when this spirit attacks. Which is not now! Alright, uhm, and then, I shall pay 1 to bring back Dark Knight Aglaveil.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uhm, and pop him up to level 2, which will give him Curse. Now I see both of your spirits are exhausted. I am going to attack with Dark.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So true. Now I am attacking with Dark Kingsnake Pendicles. Okay. When the spirit attacks, I can select one of my opponent's spirits and remove a core from it and place it in your trash. I am of course going to remove a core from, do you mind?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Bringing him down to a mere three thousand.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Draw card. And as a flash action, which I can do now, I will pay three to select one of your opponent's spirits and return it to their hand. And I have chosen Buster,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And this I shall block with Camelot Knight, who shall be destroyed. Well I shall draw, because you've exhausted yet another card.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Alright, immortal. It is once again my turn. Start step. Core step. Draw step. Uh huh. Refresh step. Buh buh buh buh buh buh buh buh.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] As the first part of my main step, I will bring Dark Kingsnake Pendocles up to level three. I shall once again play Dark Knight Aglavale.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Pendicles. When I attack, I select one of my opponent's spirits, I remove a core from it, and place it in their trash. Guess what?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, it just really cheeses me off.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Thanks again to our sponsor, Battlespirits Saga, for this episode of Overboard. The game comes out on April 28th. But before then, in Las Vegas, there will be a grand tournament from March 25th through 26th.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You've bested our realm's three greatest champions, and now you're free to go.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Before they find out about me, I'm gonna know all about them. I'm gonna have a wash. Well you was dirty.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I prefer not to discuss it on the phone. Is there some time I can see you tomorrow? Let me see.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] If you're thinking I'm using my friendship with Angela, you're wrong. I guess you know things between us aren't too good.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Well, I saw Mr. Hamilton for about ten seconds, Angela for about five, and I was stuck with Wayne for the day. Oh, how was he? Answer your question. And you say your last? No worries. Take a lot more than a bit of horse manure.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And meaningful discussions. So I'm glad that we have this opportunity once again.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I would say that we have a lot in common with the vegans.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So I think in the course of this discussion perhaps we can, uh, discuss both aspects.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] What would be the bhakti perspective on veganism? Yes.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So I think because the cruelty increased to such humongous proportions and it became so in your face so to speak and so brazen, uh, that


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So that was bad enough. I mean, he didn't in any way try to justify that. He criticized that as well. Uh, but he said, if you have to, if you really have to, and you can't do without it, then at least do this.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uh, vegetarian society or something like that over there.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So I think that was a very signal contribution that, uh, Srila Prabhupada has made amongst his many other contributions.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uh, that is essentially at the root of this kind of a feeling where we feel a sense of entitlement.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And it's amazing in these conversations how he brings up this point again and again so many times that thou shalt not kill.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Because we do mass killing in these organized slaughterhouses, so it comes back to us in the form of wars and, uh,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You know, kind of a situation we say, okay, what is the tangible evidence that this earthquake or this pestilence is directly caused by such and such act?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Eight, yes, and that eight also includes what they call semi-vegetarians. So I don't know what that means.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But Paul McCartney, there's an added dimension to it. And the dimension was that in these, in those 70 or 80 years, which must have elapsed between the two, these organized slaughterhouses had come into vogue.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The 60s, 70s and, and that gave birth to organizations like PETA and many others like that.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You know, they would keep aside a portion of the food cooked at home to feed the animals and the birds.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Maybe five or six decades ago, I could be wrong, but roughly thereabouts.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The lack of awareness amongst people in general. And similarly in the western countries, the decline of godliness.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Actually there are two different kind, these are two groups, one would say one, as you said, are those who are driven by a certain kind of ideology that you've described. And because, uh, the Brahminical culture, uh, promoted vegetarianism and because


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And so deliberately going for beef eating parties or, or, uh, slendering.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Because of the modern educational system in India being heavily dominated by a western approach.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So you have these two classes of people moving from vegetarianism to non-vegetarianism. One who moved into this space, the other moved into the Western liberal space and they moved in.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yes, so the fads and fashions of the West usually take a few years, uh, till they become well rooted in India. So,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] In which she said that when she went abroad one time, she was asked by, uh, her host,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So she took offense to that and she was writing in the letter that I'm tired of people thinking that I am vegetarian because I come from India.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Because they, they realized that there was some substance to what the vegans were saying.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So from what I understand, this is the core or the essence of the philosophy of Buddhism. And therefore, uh,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But we'll come to the point of where we understand


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You know, very lovingly with great devotion, Lord Krishna set the standard in Vrindavan as the original transcendentally covered boy.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Apart from sometimes acting as a vehicle for other medicines, because it's sweet.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] If you want to take a bitter medicine or something, then you can use honey or in combination with that bitter medicine, perhaps it's more effective.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Satvik according to the kind of effect that it has on the one who consumes it.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It's known as sattvic or rajasic or tamasic, you know, in the mode of goodness or passion and ignorance according to the kind of qualities and properties it has.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So honey has a kind of a property that uhm,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] As far as food items, I think as far as I can see, these are the only two main differences.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And perhaps some other things like, you know, gelatin capsules and other things which have animal products, you know.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] These are also two interesting items that vegans don't use, whereas we have a different take on that. Yeaah.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] We are dependent on bacteria in the soil without which we wouldn't have any crops. No plants would grow if it wasn't for the microbes in the soil.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Very complex, inconceivable networking of harmonious interdependence.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The third, and by the way, we can be cruel to inanimate things also, even though they can't, uh,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uh, you know, we will, in fact the Shastras even talk of medicine. We have to all offer it to Krishna with love and then consume it as prasadam.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So I would say these are the five criteria on the basis of which we can utilize.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You know, what we can use from nature, what we can't, et cetera, is


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] What is nature's arrangement for the human being? What's nature's arrangement for the tiger or for the bee? It's not something I can simply decide on my own.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So you, you try to struggle to protect Mother Nature, which is noble, which is good, but unless you do it under the guidance of Father God,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And there is a, a group of people in history who have traditionally been following this kind of life. What are the kinds of foods they ate? Yes, just look at that. So in this way, I think we can, we can, uh,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And the other is one that gives a pragmatic presentation of the philosophy and theology in such a way that is empirically verifiable.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Because today the industrial dairy farming, uh, has, has become so full of cruelty.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The first and most important criterion is at the very minimum, don't kill the cows and the bulls and the calves. Okay. Okay, at the very least. Second, uhm, look after the cows and bulls with love and devotion.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The next point would be, uh, very very important point, uh, don't separate the calf and the mother.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] By injecting and by doing so many other nasty things. But if you just keep the cow happy and joyful, out of sheer pleasure the cow will give abundant milk.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And we say we look, you have, let's say 200 cows and, uh, cows and bulls, et cetera.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So therefore the supermarkets are able to pressurize the farmers to sell milk at a very low price.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And sometimes milk is even cheaper than water. You know the good qualities of, uh,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Now where Ahimsa milk is not available, you have the two choices.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I, I avoid milk unless I'm fairly sure that the milk is coming from a place where there is no cruelty.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uh, of course it's really difficult to 100% know in some cases, but certainly in, in some places you can have an idea that yes, uh, it is fairly,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I would say let the temples feel inspired to set up fun projects where they can look after cows.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I would say, you know, what is rational, what is not rational.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Use that expression to indicate some veneration that is irrational in their opinion.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And in the absence of our mother's milk, the best milk is cow's milk. Even for us as children, as human children.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So is it a question of rationality that you should love your mother? You should be grateful for your mother? You know, so this whole concept of rationality,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So the relationship of the child of the mother. So similarly, because the cow is giving us milk and all through our life. So she, we revere her as our mother.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And just as we don't throw out the mother from the house because she gets old and quote unquote unproductive, she can't cook for us anymore. She can't clean the house for us anymore. So let's throw her out of the house. We don't do that. We're not supposed to do that. Although it does happen nowadays.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And the course has expressed great anguish at the fact that


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] We're not getting into that.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Our practice or attitudes towards those who give us so many valuable things in life.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Is something that is much broader and much deeper and also something that can take us much higher.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You know, so I think it was in the nectar of devotion where


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uh, Prabhupada says in the preface, I think it is where the, uh,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] For my child, you know, the, the, uh, our, our circumference circle of love keeps expanding and expanding and expanding.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] According to our level of awareness of the world around us, for a child, it loves its parents because of the family because that's all the child knows.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Eventually if they can be brought to understand this sublime logic and rationality in Krishna consciousness, then they will accept it.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] He or she has a separate vegan diet available and for others they can take the vegan plus the milk products.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uh, because the devotee wants to do things in a supplicate way, in a, in a mode of goodness, therefore,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] For the first five points that I mentioned,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Don't inject all sorts of chemicals, hormones, unnecessary antibiotics and so on and so forth.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Into the cow just to increase your milk production and so on.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Number four, don't confine the cow, you know, 24 hours a day to the stalls, uh, where they're confined, almost imprisoned, and they're not allowed to move. Let them have


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So these are the criteria that need to be satisfied in order to have milk that is truly Ahimsa.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I might like to mention here which we discussed very briefly was about other items that vegans don't consume apart from milk and milk derivatives, which is honey.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And wool, silk. Yeaah. And whatever principles we have for, uh, the milk, I would say similar principles would apply. Although it's like differences would apply to, uh, honey and wool and silk.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Causing harm to the sheep. You know, there are problems. One of the things that vegans object about is that sometimes in order to get more bull, they shear the sheep.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] By the time it's winter, the sheep is without its natural warm clothing.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So if at all as devotees, we utilize wool also.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] In fact, wool and silk in the Vedic culture are considered pure items. You know, if you wear cotton clothes and uh,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You can't wear cotton clothes again and again without washing them.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Then you would love it. It's okay to, to, if you just kept it on, if it hasn't get so obviously soiled, then, uh, it's considered pure enough for repeat use without washing.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Let the larva or the larvae grow into moths naturally and they break open the cocoon and emerge and let them emerge and live their life.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So the quantity of yarn that you get is less. The length of every yarn that you get is less.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Broaden our lifestyle and make it the purity of our lifestyle, physical lifestyle. You know, we will have to consider these things at some point.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But we give the cows protection. We give the cows love.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Thank you Lily Durrell for a swell song. Now the band with a little blues offering. It's the current hit, Shoo Shoo Blues.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Because there will be times when you'll need advice. There are some people who will try to take advantage of your youth and inexperience.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Oh Lily, marriage is the greatest career of all.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] After you've made yourself comfortable, Miss Andrews, I'll be delighted to show you around and introduce you to the other members of the faculty. Thank you.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Regarding those new textbooks, Miss Ellis, I want to speak to you about...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] My next guest is a very funny guy you know as Mike from Mike and Molly. Please welcome Billy Gardell.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, I was confused. I was interested, so I got stuck around until like, I started getting really uncomfortable, and then I showed my gun.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Me and Fredo have been like, it sounds weird, but like, that's been my best friend since like three years ago, like before I even got like, really popular.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, he had a job there, like he was just that nigga he just came and took over. Fucking bitches. That's why I didn't get no pussy.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I don't know, yeaah, I wasn't getting girls before I was cool, but it's like, I don't know, I just know that's life. I'm, it's not like I'm mad, like, oh, like, of course it does kinda like, you think I'm like, I'm the same, but I understand how shit goes, so I don't really.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, because like, nah, I don't do it for like...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeaah, exactly, it wasn't like, for me to even accept the job in the first place, it wasn't like the money was cool, but it's like, alright, this is what I'm actually changing, like I'm changing something, which I did, but,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I don't know, like the whiz that people used to be attracted to or whatever, I was like, trying to bring back a factor of that. Right.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] In a new way, like, a rebirth, however, a proper. But it just like, it was just some industry shit, like, that I didn't appreciate, like,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And then it's like, it's like, yeah, okay, like where's my check? And like that shit kinda sucks, like if we're doing all this cool shit, like you know how mad I get, like I'll see flyers with him with a boy London hat on.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, it was just too much. It was like money. Like, alright, if you have a certain amount of money already, and like, either you better focus on like, being cool, or whatever, leading on that legacy, or whatever that you're trying to like, blahzay, blah, that we're working on, or just be focused on that money engine, just sell yourself to any and everyone, like, that seems.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uh, I signed to him last year in Paris, actually like, a little while after my 21st birthday, and like, would that consist of, uh, he has like my career for like the next four years or whatever, and it's like, all my jobs, or like say, for instance, if it's something going on for like, let's just call it Brent, like Dior or something like that, he'll put me on the job.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And it's just like shitty deals that I get myself into like yeaah I look cool but like where the fuck is my check or like where's, you get what I'm saying?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uh, it was initially like Illz and Josh and Nas, and I always like, I never looked up to anyone, like basically anyone at all besides like dead people or whoever, but it's like,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It was cool, like I was the first person that he signed and I found that like, I was like, damn, like you really put that much into me, like these niggas have been around you your whole life.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Like, just on some shit, like, I'll just do lame, like, not lame shit, but like, let's say like, if I have to be somewhere at a certain time, or I'll miss flights, blahzay blah, like, Yam's always like, yo, you know Ian, it's different. Based off, I'll always go like, what's in my head, like, I don't really necessarily care.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But he taught me to be more like, considerate, blahzay blah. And it's politics to a lot of shit.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] No, not really. Based off I already gave, I came into the game with the like, I don't give a fuck factor in the first place. So not much is gonna hurt me at all. Like I'm always gonna be straight.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It's a part of life, like I've always had that mindset, like, my mom could die, like, god forbid, but it's like, it's a part of life, and you, like, you're born to die, so I'm not about to dwell on it too hard, I'm like, damn, I'm, I reminisce on something, but nothing's gonna stop me for a day or a week, like, that person's dead.

[Assistant] That's what he, he doesn't want that. He didn't want that. It's like he left a legacy that we have to continue going, like.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, that's what I stress, like that's like one of my main things, like making sure that all these kids, as far as like, from, with me and Shane, it's always been mutual, like Shane has been like my first, like as far as like,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uh, Cardi, like, the same way, like, kinda Xavier, like, it's like a friendship before I knew their music. So Cardi was my, again, like, I always meet people through, like, weird things, like, Cardi had a shirt that I wanted. Out of all people, he had a shirt that I wanted.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, I appreciate anybody with style, like, that's my thing. So, like, he had his shirt, and then, like, he started rapping, and like, he'll send me his links, and I don't click on it, like, I don't, I don't care, like, you're my friend. But then, like, my old assistant was playing his shit, I was like, who the fuck is it?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Nah, I really don't care. I'm not a hipster, but I'm faking I'm a hipster. Cause like, I don't want to listen to shit like that everyone's hyping, cause a lot of times it's not what it lives up to be. So, I just, uh, just stay on my old shit, like my old jazz or listen to like,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Hardcore, listening to Morrissey, the Smiths, blah, blah, blah, and if I naturally hear something, I'm like, yo, what is this? Like, one of my favorite songs right now is Sweeter Man by Drake.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You feel me doing what I had to do as, like, I don't give a fuck about fashion, I care more about style, like, so.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I find it interesting. You get what I'm saying? Like, everyone in my life, like, I handpicked. It was never like, yo, I can do this for you, blah, blah. Like, I just bypassed that shit. Like, if it's not natural, if I don't see something in someone, then I'm not gonna fuck with them.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Like, anything, like, if it's your time, it's your time. So if that just happens, if I'm feeling that way, you're feeling that way, and things lead on to the next, like, yea, of course I would shoot someone, like.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, I've never killed anyone, but it's like, I'm not looking forward to, but it's like, if it comes down to us, like, why not, like.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I would try to defuse the situation based off, like, I understand, like, I still have my life to live and all of that, but if it comes down to it, yea, honestly I wouldn't. I wouldn't have any remorse or regret or...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Half of my existence wouldn't be if it wasn't for Virgil, I can honestly say that. As far as like, when Virgil was reaching out to me, I was like, who the fuck is this? Kanye's creative director, what the fuck is a creative director?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I was like, what? So then I was like, oh alright, this is cool. Like, you get what I'm saying?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And there was Bari, who used to fucking love Virgil, cause like, he was always new, like, creative direction, blahzay, blah, and it's like, alright, this is a nigga that I look up to, it's like a chain effect, like I looked up to Bari that much the same way, like over half the kids who look up to Bari.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Like just teaching me the ropes, like really like breaking his back for me when like people were scared to fuck with me based off like they wouldn't know what honestly I would do.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You know what I'm saying? Like how Shane went through like his stay dirty phase.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But now like Shane is more in touch with like himself, and Shane will always be like this. He probably won't be wearing like these cuts in the elbows when he's 30 and stuff, but these same designers and such, like the same way with me with Supreme, I'll still wear a bot's logo.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uh, I don't fuck with the media, like, that based off of my social, like, the social media wherever, like, everything that you want to hear, you can get it from that, like, I'm always gonna speak my mind, I'm always gonna take that picture or however I'm feeling, it's not like,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Oh, like, let's go with this wave on my Instagram or blazebla. It's like, whatever I'm seeing in my head, if I could capture it, then I will. Whatever I'm thinking in my head, and I can word it the way I do, then put it like that. That's, that's rare. If you want to find out blazebla, get off that and tie a deletor or whatever.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Outlets and stuff like that. I don't like fucking with them because like I feel like they're not appreciative. Like, it's just another story for them for some more views.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I gave him 40 pounds and he's like, no fam. Alright, I'll give you the hat if you wear my hat cause he had his.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] A lot of good shit was happening at that time or whatever, so I was like, alright, like, let me put that out into the world, but.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Besides that, as far as magazines and all that, like, I don't, I turn that shit down most of the time. Basically, I really don't necessarily give a fuck.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] If it's a young kid that comes up to him, he's asking both of us for a picture.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But if it's like an old lady or like a woman, like, I don't...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Like, they're paying attention to Wiz, or like they know me through him, or same way with Rocky, or blahzay blahz, like, I don't care.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Like, I just want to keep fucking like, my same bitches and like,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I never cared about fame in the first place, like that wasn't my focus, but like I understand I gotta go through certain phases and do certain things to like get my point across. Not like the fame thing, but it's like, as far as like,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Alright, for me being king of the youth or blahzay blah and then Shane being like literally like my right hand.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] More kids to actually be like Shane that's in the youth to actually like get themselves out that box. Like you have people like me who actually like


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, it does. Uh, like, it really does. Like, that's why, like, my friends are, like, these 15 and 14 year old kids, or whatever, not based off I have complete control over them, or not based off it makes me feel cooler, blah, blah, blah, because I have control over 30, 40 year old men, I can make them do whatever the fuck I want.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It's like, bro, like, I know I had style, I survived off my style, I didn't have looks or anything like that, so it's like,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] My style is my style and I know if you take a part of it, it doesn't aggravate me. Like when Bari and them are everyone, like it's every fucking day like, oh that kid has your hairstyle. Or yo, you got that on because of Ian.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I don't take that as an ego thing or I just don't like call out kids on it because I know. It's like alright, it's whatever. You get what I'm saying? Like it's people that I looked up to like as far as the Cobain or something like that or it's even I find


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Now I'm doing my own shit, however, and I don't know how to do graphic design, so I like, Shane based off, we've, like, like I said, this is my right hand.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So, like, I'm proud, like, I'm proud of Shane every fucking day from what we built up, like, I'm his first midnight model, from me wearing midnight every day and all that to what the fuck, like, is going on right now, like, behind the scenes as far as, like, contracts and deals and, like,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It's about to happen, like, on a major scale. I'm so proud of that bass. I was like, alright, yeaah, I helped Shane a lot.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I'm living through these kids and it's, it makes me so happy and that's a part of my legacy. Gianni was making more money than me at one point, like 250,000 off fucking hats and that's solely based off


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uh, with midnight and what's going on, yeaah, like I'm in that, based off we're both in safe hands.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Now, it is based off I'm taking care of more people, as far as like, my right hand D, the, who at the shop, whoever, I took him out of Dallas or whatever, based off,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Believe it or not, as far as a fashion standpoint, he has more knowledge than me. Based off, he'll sit, instead of me naturally discovering stuff, he goes out his way and watches collections back to back and is like, oh, that's from 2000. And his, you saw the way that he looks and his voice, blah, blah, blah.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] All that from 2003. Man, I know that. I'm like, oh, where? So, before, I never cared to get rich. But now, like, I know I want to make a lot of money so I can start taking care more and more people, whoever wants to take, not necessarily taking care of them, but it's like, helping them.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I fuck with Post, like I met him through, he knows me of course through the fashion shit, and then when he was on or whatever, like, I didn't necessarily listen to Post's music, I knew his song, I knew that he made it, based off it was everywhere, and like it was just a natural relationship, like you see each other, dab each other tits here and there, some funny shit.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] No, I didn't see it. I heard about it, but yeah, no, that's fucked up, but like that's his, that's his job. That's his aesthetic. So it's like, I'm not about to knock it over. Like, yeah, at the end of the day, it's like fucked up, but that's you then that's you.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uh, the challenge, and on top of that, it's like, it's just genuinely interesting to me. Like, I, bro, like, I moved to New York.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] On top of that, like, that shit helped me, so it's like, I would put myself in situations that genuinely interest me, that affect my mental.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Through me, and me enjoying Xavier Weber, who knows, like, what comes out of it, you know what I'm saying? Like, when he's doing an interview, it's like, yo, I actually heard about Xavier through Ian, or something like that, so it's like, don't be subjected to one thing, like, that shit sucks, bro, like.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] He's not still like, he's opening the audience for him. He's never used to tag people from when he had little amount of followers. So like wildlife start now, like this is what you've been doing. And of course, based off he has such a big audience, people know where it's so those people are going to tag.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Like, yo, like, oh, you know about Blase Blonde? Same way with music, like...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Oh, like, why are you on that? Or whatever, it's like, dog, like, I've been on certain shit, like, this has been my sec, it's just a bigger crowd who doesn't know, or like, you didn't know before, like.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Let me admire him from afar, it's better that way. So I can still have this image of, like, bro, Soldier at one point took over the fucking world single-handedly, bro. Like, no, no one else in the game did it like Soldier, bro.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And another thing is like, all those rappers and stuff, like they know who like, I don't know, some fashion shit, so like they all want to fuck with me and it's like better for like Shane. So it's not like, after like, yo.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You should wear this. I'm like, yo, what should I wear? Or whatever. I'm like, yo, put this on. And like, they just have so much faith. Like, I can make someone wear a trash bag.

[User] Please transcribe this text

[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The 200- 2270th game, they had exactly a 500 record, heading into that. That's insane!


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Er, it was Aditi, our friend, defending herself.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Tony Grossi asked Aditi, are you a full-time employee of the Browns now? Don't hide behind it. Please clear it up. To which Aditi responded, good morning Tony. I am not a full-time employee of the Browns as I attempt to restore some balance in my life and tend to my family. And before any full-time commitments begin again, I'm doing some work for a variety of folks. Thanks for asking. PSA, don't come at Aditi.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, we're gonna get into this this week. Pro Football Focus released their list of the five best cornerback duos. Right. The Browns came in at number five, the first one off their top four, which they tweeted. And Deedee said, hey, Denzel Ward, Greg Newsom may want to have a ward.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Okay, this is bad take number two of the weekend from Bob Kravitz of the Indianapolis Star. A repeat of Jonathan Taylor's output would be bad for the cults. Now let me remind you.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Taylor led the league in rushing by 600 yards and had the most touchdowns. That's why it's a terrible take. He says that if he repeats that output it means Matthew, Ryan, who they traded for turn out to be terrible. But it's just a bad take.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But it was really tough. I thought I was going to win on 18. He double bogeyed. Did not make the playoff.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uhm, no, not really, cause when you're talking about the...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Criminal aspect of it. There's lots of times when you can do something and it may not be seen as criminal, right?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So when you go get a lawyer, a lawyer is going to look at it from a criminality standpoint. Do I got a case?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Can I get this guy prosecuted? And there's different levels and bars of


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Which you need to prove in order to get that done. And some lawyers aren't going to take that. Some lawyers are risk averse to


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Hey, I got a conviction rating. I'm trying to get it up. They're taking slam dunks only. They only taking layups, right? And so you might have to bring it to multiple different people in order for you to have your case heard. So I don't hold that against them. Now, when you're in a civil case, that's a little different.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You ain't gotta have all that type of evidence. You can, it's more likely than not that a crime occurred. That's the bottom. More than likely did not did it happen. And so.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That, that is something that other lawyers will take and can take. I think, uh, that shouldn't be used against a plate.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Well, I wanna, I wanna just, I wanna just touch down what you said. They didn't talk to the women, uhm, the 22 accusers. And so, you know, that, that can't be thorough. Well sometimes the best way to look at somebody is not by directly looking at them.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You watch them from afar. There's been countless, they probably have all the information from the two grand juries. They probably have all the information.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Here's the thing, if you, if you asking me, like if you, if you do a documentary, and you're doing a documentary about someone,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I'm not sitting in the chair talking. The other people are talking. They'll bring you in and say, alright, how's Garrett Bush? They'll bring you. What is your relationship with Garrett Bush? They'll bring you. They bring other people, family members. They don't actually.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Why, why doesn't it have to be the most thorough investigation? If you've talked, you're not going to talk to lawyers. You're not talking to all these people. If you're dealing with regular drafting a regular kid, you're like, okay, I'll talk to your high school students. You don't have three, four lawyers looking at this case.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I think, I think they went in, in our bar and their bar is two different things. I think their bar was, when they came in and talked to Deshaun Watson, they said, is he criminal? Is he going to jail?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And so they was like, the criminal stuff, they went to the lawyers and said, hey,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The civil stuff, like, is that, can I turn him back into criminal? No, he just had to, okay. Well, our bar was here, right? And I think when they say they did the most thorough investigation, they're talking about specifically their comfort level with whether or not he is going to jail and how often he's going to play.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Let me, let me ask you guys this question, cause I remember when this happened. When the Ray Rice thing happened and the tape came out.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And it was like, the Ravens said, hey, we, the league looked into it, you know, we had already made our judgments and then the tape came out and then it was like a nuclear disaster, right? It was a meltdown. It was, it was, it was a Mach 5 meltdown. For the Cleveland Browns.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Do you believe they went into it like, okay, we're gonna brace for this thing, and we're gonna see how it hits. And if it's not a nuclear meltdown?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Do you think they feel better about it now or no?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The great thing about this is you can find out. It's called a civil trial. I think they'll have one next year, 2022. We will. Unless, unless,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And by the way, this is a unique point, but here's the thing. In this country, we've, we know some of the most powerful people. We're not gonna say anything, any names. Not only will they not capitulate,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Even if they know they're right, it could be on tape, capitulate. They will double down.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Maybe that's what happened. I think he's, I think he's thinking of the collateral damage though. So say, for instance, he, like we talked about it is different levels to this thing. Maybe he says that the key witness.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I can see where she coming from, right? But the rest of y'all? Uh, no, no, no. We're not going- So when you- I done been places where I- I done got married to somebody I didn't- I shouldn't have been married to. And I done been at the altar looking like-


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And I don't know if this the right decision. Really? But I went through with it because...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I ain't about to have you up here looking crazy. Yeaah. That's right. My mama looking. Yeaah. But that's heavy. We just spent $24,000 and I'm sitting here knowing the collateral damage to that is, you know how much a divorce costs? You know how much splitting your money up is? You know how much, cause it's going to happen. Or just sharing your life with someone you're


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And, and, and so my thing is if he's sitting there and he does have remorse, like I can see where she coming from. He's in his mind. But if I'm into that.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I'm like, man, this dude, he out here, he out here looking, uh, like he been lifting, working out. That's the football swag.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] He was beat a couple times early last year. I'm saying, oh, they got him. What the fact?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That he's always there. He always got a hand. He always is in the mix. So even if he get beat, I'm like, they'll work on you with that. You'll get your eyes in the right place. They'll have him read his keys. But just being around the football?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] With DBS, you can't coach that. Some dudes get picks, I was around a guy, Mike Dawes, I played with him.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I didn't understand why you was getting that money like this and I had to go to the expert. I had to go to the expert and say listen, Jalen Ramsey is behind with a lot of these.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Well, you know, coach, I will tell you this, man. I'm willing to make you a wager. I've been, uhm, I'm not gonna say Michigan or blue or anything, but we gotta have a little wager here. I was going around and I've been at Target.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I've been at Walmart and they don't have some of the gear that you guys have. They don't got none of these nice coats and gear. You get second tier. Yea, I'm getting it. We don't get none of the, none of the top tier gear. You know, Tyvis was saying that he's in a need for some Ohio State gear. He was, he was, he was a 3X now.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] How did you guys go? When I grew up, they had John Cooper, right? We had Eddie George. We had guys. We were gonna line up. Joey Galloway. We gonna pound the football. You may get three or four passes if you're lucky. How did you guys turn?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Into the Air Raid, uh, Ohio State Buckeyes. Now, no disrespect to Trevion Henderson because he can run the ball. But I mean, the receivers you guys got, I mean, Smith and Jigba, Alave, Garrett, Jack. Hey, we taking credit for, we still taking credit for Jamison Williams down there, down in, uh, in Alabama.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You know, coach, one of the things I always loved best as a, as a former player in college was getting those team building exercises, whether it's bowling or swimming or doing whatever you guys do, but you guys at Ohio State have taken it to a new level.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] We have some, some footage. We have some stuff on Paintball. Who would have known? Look at that, yeaah. Ohio School let you get you done with Paintball. Talk about how that went. How'd you guys come up with that? And uh, how's your aim?

It doesn't matter how much money you make. It doesn't matter. Sports is a way for people in Cleveland to get together. And it's something that can't be replicated. In Cleveland, sports is a thing.

[Assistant] And you know, we got a perfect segue. We got another one from the Ultimate Cleveland Sports Show chat room. Lucas05102. You gotta get a better screen name, dawg. Lucas says, how old was Eric before he was able to beat his dad in a race? Good question.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] People is upset at us right now because we haven't mentioned, if you ain't been in Cleveland, the most memorable


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Eric Metcalf moment, obviously. It's taking two kicks to the crib on the Steelers. I remember being at the house losing my mind. And by the way, when you look at it, I believe you were kind of dinged up that you, it didn't look, you either had a hamstring or quad or something you didn't know if you was gonna play.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] What is your memory about taking them two kicks back to the house? Cause them, like that changed the game for everybody in Cleveland.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I mean, I still have a big bucket list, but that also, I mean...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Every time I knock off one, you end up getting two more. So as I get older, it gets longer and longer and longer.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I'm completely jaded by Coachella. Unfortunately, anybody who has been there, done that and seen it back in the day before, all the cops and all the pussy ass bitch, every, you have to go through four checkpoints to even get inside. There's, I don't know, it's not what it used to be.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It was Woodstock back in the day. It was everybody doing something dumb in every direction, and nobody to say anything. It was a field day of fun.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Dom is fucking, he's just Brooklyn Dom from Melrose, like. Right.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I mean, I'm from Vegas where it was literally, they pulled out a lint roller and fucking went through your car and they were like, here's the seed. That happened to you as a kid. As a kid that happened to you. I mean, no, luckily, I mean, that did happen, but luckily I got away with it two different times. Right.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Some bullshit, somebody's family was membered to some officer or something and we ended up getting out of there.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Two weeks later ended up beating up one of the kids I lived with and then, uh, I got kicked out on the streets, convinced my mom that I was living at these people's houses, but really I was finding big ass trees in Venice and like,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Did that for like 8 months or something like that. Climbing trees? No, no, no. Just like shade. Sleep under the tree, right? So that you don't fucking wake up at 5am to blistering sun. Right.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Played soccer, or I just was outside consoling, but mainly soccer.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] A couple months later. And it's been fucking wrapped. Like literally, there's not been...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I, I, I went through my downtime in my, uh, twenties, where...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Just like anybody, if you do things for long enough and you start going places and then, you know, I felt...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, it just felt like, you know, every demo, you never skated for yourself anymore. You went somewhere and there was kids that fucking, and then you had to do the tricks that you were known for and whatever.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Exactly, you turn into a little dick and a fucking piece of shit and whatever and now I hit a wall one day and that was around 29 and ever since then, like, I realized what I was giving up to become this new fucking whatever the fuck I cared. Cool hipster, drunk, drudgy guy, you know what I mean?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] No, no, no, that was when he still skated every day.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, that's, so he like instantly at 18 started introducing me to all these people and this and that. And I mean, it was tight, and it's still tight, and I'm very thankful, cause I know...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But as I got older, yeaah. I started to lose more focus of who gives a shit about who I'm with. I started losing more focus about who gives a shit about this and this and this.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Okay, when you get on your bike, and you just fucking cruise down the street, do you not just get a sensation through you that you're like, I feel better than I ever felt? Let's say you're in a fight with your girl, let's say you're in a fucking this and that or blah, it doesn't matter.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I'm in my thirties, yo. We, we do a thing. We hang out with like, it's, fuck, I can't even explain it anymore. It's more or less like,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Me and a bunch of fucking, a small group of roll dogs.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, but they're very small elite groups. They have to really be valid, right? Yeah. I mean, you already know how it is. Every couple kids, every million fucking kids, there's that one dude that you're like, this little monster. That's the kid, yeah. Like, I fucking love being around you.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Neckface doesn't really skateboard. He fucking sits there and makes you laugh all day long.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Most people don't even know how to stand on a motherfucking board. I know, it's a very strange thing.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So being able to use it for travel is kind of already, most people are out. And then if you do have it to that point,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I don't know, man. I mean, I personally think skateboarding is the coolest thing in the world. I'll fucking ride it to New York if I could. Like, I mean, it's just one of those things. I'm not a long boarder. I'm not a fucking push arounder. Like, I just enjoy every aspect of four wheels down.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It's my life, you know what I mean? And I stare at it and I fucking study every new kid coming up and everything to do with it and whatever. But yeah, I mean, after my falling out with Baker and my everything else with a couple other things, it was like,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I did watch a lot of people turn their heads on me.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Oh, is this and this. And fuck everybody for that, you know what I mean? And for me, because of that, I've gotten stronger and more in tune to who I am.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And who I am is, I don't give a fuck. As long as I'm on my skateboard, I'm happy.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] If you went to college for 15 years or 10 years to become a fucking, a lawyer, and then you get fired from a firm, are you not a lawyer anymore? Yea, exactly. You're still a fucking lawyer. You can go get hired by somebody else. You can do whatever you want. So, I mean, I still had plenty of things for sale, just wasn't a pro skateboard.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Thank you. But no, I was taught by Andrew, I was taught by all these people, and...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Thank you for that happening because it taught me to actually grow the fuck up and become the man that I was supposed to be. Right. And whatever and that's unfortunately what I see through Baker, through other people and other teams and whatever is that


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You're found as a kid and you're taught to be a kid. You know what I mean? And you never grow the fuck up. And that was my big blessing was...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Getting kicked off, because it taught me to be the fucking man I am. Right. And like, if it wasn't for that, I don't know where I'd be. I'd still be one of those lost fucking, just doing my thing, being alcoholic, give a fuck. Instead, now it's like, yeah, we're having a beer or two, smoking a joint.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Only so much time that I can push boundaries. I see these fucking 8 year olds board side in Hollywood 16 that you're like, I gotta step game up.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It's like, for what my body can produce and what I've seen from everybody else, you know what I mean? It is kind of that


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Like, it's not the clock, it is the clock, but it's the worst way of the clock because some people can go to 50. Yeaah. And some people shatter at 23, you know what I mean? So, it's the weird mental clock that I don't know, but in my head I'm like, well fuck, skateboarding is so new, that you gotta think about it, the oldest dudes are only 50.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You felt stupid, but the reality is, you know, he felt even stupider. Because the last thing, it's how it always works.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I personally grew up a BMXer. When we were kids, it was, our Vegas crew was me, three other skaters.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The little idiots, you know what I mean? Right. And then of course it got a little bit better and bigger and there was a couple more, but yeah, it was a small clique of us.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Never stuck for anything, but definitely, uh, I moved there when I was 17 and now I've been there for 17 years. Right. And, I mean,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That was right after at 29. And I took a year where I was like, hey, I'm just gonna fucking go on a music festival tour. And I just packed.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Put all my shit in storage, grabbed a bag, and left for 11 months. And went to like, 8 different music festivals around the world, and then fucking ended up in New York.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, just posted in those countries. Skating? Or just hanging out? No, I was on full. That was during my era. Party mode. I don't give a fuck. Really? You know what I mean? Like, so I just went into heavy partying, heavy do whatever I wanted, and then...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, that was when I woke up one day in New York City in Brooklyn and was like,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Just woke up looking at a wall and was like, what the fuck am I doing?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I think my worst time with drugs was when I, before I was 18. Really? Because when I was, uh, 12 years old.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I got like a shot or two from my parents, you know what I mean, at a Christmas party like a week before. And then the night after Christmas I ended up drinking, I mean my friend came over, we grabbed a bottle of Jack Daniels and I just remember like holding it up.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And then I woke up and my whole family's around me and I was in the hospital and like chest hurt and whatever. And they were like, yeah, you died.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You died in the ambulance, they brought me back to life, then they brought me back to life at, uh, in the hospital.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And after that, I was scared shitless of alcohol.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So I didn't drink till I was like 17 or something like that, but found out what weed was pretty much the-


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Like a month before that, and I was like, oh, well weed's fuckin' casual, you know what I mean? And that led into heavy acid.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You know what I mean? Like, that was my era of drugs. But it was good because I had a crazy mom and a crazy whatever, so...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You were never out of control, you know what I mean? And we were also poor, you couldn't fucking- I mean, not poor, you just couldn't afford fucking-


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You can afford anything after you catch those right contracts.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And I mean I got a lot of good things done out of that and, and, and, I mean I'm still very much killing it because I opened a lot of very good businesses and my businesses are killing it and I still have very much good sponsors and people who take care of me and this and that. But that was, there was like five years where


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It was every week phone calls from more people. Hey, we want to throw fucking so much money at you. Blah, blah, blah. Alright, cool. Fuck it. Like, let's do this. Let's do that. Like.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I mean, I've gotten really lucky because my stepdad is an insane smart accountant.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Learning from his business ups and downs and then from failures that I've had over and over and over, you know, you just gotta keep moving forward that whatever happens and


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The more positive the more things you do, you know, I attracted the right businessmen and business propositions and whatever where


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The only responsibility I have is my little brother is one of the managers there and I have to calm him down when he has a bad night because some fucking douchebag customers were like screaming and sometimes dudes are throwing bottles at people's heads. It gets wild there sometimes.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah. Which is funny because we wanted to open a dive bar. And how long did this open? We were like, the whole thing was, it's three years in January. So, it was three years in January.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, and it's never slowed down since day one. Like, it just, we started promoting it on Instagram and this and that. We started doing, I mean.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It's fucking alcohol. Like, if you have a great day, you go drink. If you have a bad day, you go have a drink. It's, it's recessionable.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I grew up with Kenny Anderson and that motherfucker believed that like, yo, you accidentally led you a bitch. Really? Like, brand new.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] No, that's the fastest wax you can ever use and it goes as long as that paint is on there. It's unbelievable what red paint can do.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I have an addictive personality. I have a one track mind.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Like, I will die obsessed with skateboarding. Like, nothing in the fucking world will deter me from skateboarding. It's literally all I think about. It's when I go to sleep, I'm like, oh my god, if you're thinking about some chick or you're on some bullshit and blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, you got 99 problems, but a skateboard ain't one. Like, it'll literally put me into peace.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Like I said, I have a one track mind. You're gonna have to cripple me before I can sit down aboard and go, okay, well, that's not my main focus.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And even when it's not my main focus, damn right that I want to fucking...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] If I have kids, I'm not gonna be one of them fuckin' Niger dads or them crazy fanatics about it.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But if they want to skate, and even if they don't want to, they are going to know that skateboarding is 100% part of our family. Right. You know what I mean? Like, they'll always be boards on my wall. They'll always be things that like, represent that, and everybody around that's going to come and uncle blah blah blah is a pro skater and uncle blah blah blah. So.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] As much as you want to take them outside and you want to fucking introduce them to every sport and this and that.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The computer world is the world. That is, we're all plugged in. And who am I to be the hypocrite when dad's on Instagram or fucking mom's doing this and that. And so fuck it. You know what I mean? It's the easiest way to make a billion dollars under 30.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Blah, blah, blah. I looked you up in this and that, but the reality is is that


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I don't know, I grew up old school and I like it old school, you know what I mean?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I think it's rad that somebody like Sid Vicious could die at 21, but there's so many stories. And there wasn't Instagram, there wasn't whatever, these are people who passed on story to story to story, you know what I mean? And I like that about rock stars, I like that about older people and whatever. And now it's exactly- You kind of fetishize that, the idea of dying


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Thrasher baby. That's all you got to say. Right.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] They've been there and done that. They've seen everything. There's nothing that like, they haven't pushed a boundary with.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Go hang out with Jake Phelps for a fucking weekend and then tell me that you ain't fucking either going-


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] No matter how much money they can become a billion dollar company overnight and they will not fucking change for mainstream. You know what I mean? Like, oh you're this, you're that person?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It doesn't matter if you make a joke, if you do whatever.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Truly, it is the key, it's my Bible, you know what I mean?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I don't know. I think it's the fully fuck you approach of they don't care. And the more they say they don't care, the fucking further they've gotten. And the reality is they really don't care.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I think he's fucking amazing. But I don't watch him every week, no. Like, I'm literally, I'm not gonna say I'm a fucking computer idiot, but I just don't care. You know what I mean? Like, I look up my sites and I'll do it like every couple weeks or this and that.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Oh, in 7-Eleven, ooh. Or do you need the expensive stuff? No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no. I mean, there's my every night candy. I love Reese's.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I love anything chocolate that you put in the frie- I mean freezer. Get it soup and- Ah, see I don't do that. That's far, yeaah. So the Reese's, freezer, boom, suck on it till it just melts in your mouth, boom. You already know. Then Twix, that's an all day.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But it's more or less to wind down. Because I literally try to stay active. And it's like, like I said, we wake up, we go to the can, we go to the gym, we go skate for fucking seven hours. We go- Seven hours in an average day?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Like, the average day we'll get to the park around 11. And you went to the gym first? Yea, we'll leave there around like 5 or 6 or something.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Not anymore, not so much. It's like, I pick and choose my battles.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You know what? I've, I've, I've heard of that. There was, uh, this pro skateboarder named Bastion.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] He had a Dictology, which was a real fucking- What's that? It's, so his psychiatrist told the fucking company that he had a real disease, it's called Dictology. It's where when you get on something, you get so addicted to it, you just forget about everything else. Oh, okay, a Dictology, not Dictology. No, not Dictology.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] He started playing guitar and he just stopped one day. He never skated, he just went right into guitar to the point where he lost everything and whatever. And I mean that was a trip to me. I personally don't think that my madness is that far.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I know that no matter what happens at the end of the day.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, you know, you know, I'm not gonna even hate on one of those fucking gorgeous people that work faster than, I mean, that's still, that's, that's a bucket list fantasy is like full McDonald's outfit. Right. It's almost like lingerie, but just sexy.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] My salty chocolate balls kind of slowly. Hey Braden, this has been great.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Okay, well, you don't understand. There was, in 30 minutes, it was fucking three to four cars that pulled over. Groups of women that were jumping out like, can I take a photo with you? You're Adam 22. When you're a YouTuber, yea. That was, yea, blew my mind.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I just thought you were this tattooed thug, you know, moving on the block.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Weed maps, weed maps, skate, Coachella, 2017, fucking no jumper, everything above, Adam 22, Braden Sapranski, find us on our Instagram or whatever else, good times.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] From the animals, welcome to Saskatoon, Saskatchewan. Where today, a team of world-class snowball athletes are preparing to represent Canada on the world stage in Japan. And perhaps, pick up a Guinness World Record along the way. Today, the Mercer Report lends a hand, or better yet, a throwing arm. Welcome to Saskatoon.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] What are these guys doing? What are they doing? What is that? Oh, oh no. Ready in 5... 4... 3...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It would take me hours to say all of their names.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] What's new with Betsy and Jay? Weekdays at 5 on 3. Recognize that feeling? It is the feeling of being together.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] To west, to south. Stories of perseverance, of family, of love. If a story brings us together, it's what matters most.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, speaking personally, I'm gonna make right some, I'm gonna mend some things that you guys did wrong again yesterday. Seems like that's my job around here. Uh, when you guys were talking about your toughest Clevelanders, you guys forgot somebody who was, uh, toughest Cleveland athletes.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And uh, you've probably been, you've had the, probably been recognized before, so a gentleman, an older gentleman who is thrift store shopping, I'm literally talking, and he's, I can tell he like wants to talk, and he's just like, he goes, hey. And I'm just like, hey. And he's like,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Hey, hey. And I'm just like, okay, and I hold the phone down and he just goes,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Female Browns fans, male Browns fans who care about this sort of thing, to see these people telling their stories. I'm not saying whether they're legitimate, I'm not saying whether or not they'll be believable, but this lawyer, Rusty Harden, great lawyer name, obviously thinks


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Things are going to change and you can tell that they're nervous about this because he's going on this press, this media junket now, Rusty is. I saw he's on, I think he's on your station later on, your old station, or your station currently, sorry, 923 later on. So he's going around and covering his ass right now. He's making the rounds. And saying like, hey, just so you know, getting out in front of stuff because he's, they're scared of these women going on.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Have you ever been around three women while they're trying to order a pizza? You can't get them on the same page. Are you telling me you can get 24 women, cause there's 22 and plus the other two, to all be quiet, agree, say this all happened to us. It's troubling. It's really troubling. It's a bad number. So that's bad.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] What do you think, Mike? I think it, I don't think it's necessarily about, uh, him being immature. I think it's mature that he didn't show up. I think just because it would have been silly. It would have been him just being like the turd in the punch bowl if he would have showed up at the, like how do you deal with that? You just be like, I don't know, go play with the


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Once, once the June minicamp starts? If that minicamp starts and they just have an agreement that he doesn't have to come in there, do they find him?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Bakers 2020 season is gonna start getting the back of people's heads in Seattle and stuff when they're watching their stiff quarterbacks out there and they're gonna be like, you know what? He did take them to a playoff game, won their first one. The longer we have some time here, that gives them more time.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] What's the big deal and what if we ate, what if we ate 10 million dollars of his contract and Seattle eats 8 million? Isn't it worth waiting and just keeping them there just in case that happens? I'd like 8 million dollars.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It's nice that your 24 hour fitness didn't mind that he did this. No, it's right here.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] What are we doing here? I hope all of you guys, by the way, this isn't just for me. I want you guys to take this segment and run with it too. Maybe you have had some fun Cleveland sports memories. Or I've had a few. Or from your childhood, what not, you know? And I know that I've had some. I thought today I would reflect upon some of my


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Favourite players of all time on the Cleveland Browns. So first, let's take a look at our slate. This is my segment called Fond Cleveland Sports Memories. It almost fits. I made that myself.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yes, I love that view. So these are my fond Cleveland sports memories. Now, many people might be saying, alright, you can come back to me now. Many people might be saying, Mike, what's your, what's your favorite, who's your favorite player of all time? When I was a kid, of course, I'm not gonna, I don't even use this one. Bernie Kozar, let's take a look at this one. He is, I'm not gonna use Bernie. That's me and my dad and Bernie Kozar when we, when I was, when we were kids.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But it's not, he's real, he's legit, nobody speaks more to the struggle of the Browns, and...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The resilience of the Browns fan base and that guy who stuck around here never wore anything but a Cleveland Browns uniform. The fact that he is 48, oh wait, yea, 48 and 128 in his career.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It's kind of rough having a favorite Brown that has that record. I don't know. But he gets us. But he gets us. And I love Joe Thomas. And so that's my favorite player. I did dabble briefly in between Ernest Beiner and Joe Thomas with a favorite player. Let's take a look at the next one. It was Scott Player.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You could, that was back when you could like go up to them and just get autographs like crazy because there was not the protection that there is now. They got like, you know, but back then they just like had to go to their car and you could like trap them and stuff. So here's me trying to get Ernest Beiner's autograph.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] He's putting a block up on me right there. Do you see that? Okay, so he turned me down. Now, little did he know that later on in life, I would actually get the opportunity to interview him because he had a book come out a couple of years ago, uh, that is called Everybody Fumbles.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uhm, which is the title that it should be, I suppose. Yeaah. It's about him overcoming his adversity and carrying on with his story. So what he didn't know is that I would, you know, I haven't seen him clearly since he turned me down that time. And so this is me showing him the picture of him turning me down. For the autograph.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And you proving to him that he turned me down. And luckily I still had the jersey from when I was a kid. Take the next one. I made him sign it. Let's take a look at this one. There it is. 15 years, 20 years later, uh, he's probably more than that. He's signing my signing my, uh, my jersey finally.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You know what it is? Think about this. He's been hearing about it everywhere he goes, every day of his life since that happened, pretty much. He's had so much time to get over it.

[Assistant] That he is like, he's just on autopilot now. He's like, you just gotta take it one day at a time. You just gotta try and keep getting better and move past adversity. It's like something that you can hear his psychiatrist put into his brain to like repeat to himself as a mantra. Right. So that he doesn't feel bad all the time. But it's working and he worked through it in that book.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I wanna see it too, but can you imagine still wanting at this age and how much money he has and how much success he's had just being like, thinking about getting into television. Why? So relax!

[Assistant] And so then, so we watch terrible football, super early, and then you watch the, you watch your team lose, and then you, you're drunk, you leave the place at like 12.30pm on a Sunday, you're hammered, it's bright out, and you're like, what am I supposed to do with the next of my, rest of my day? I'm already drunk.

[Assistant] It's never gonna make the fans totally happy however you wrap something up. And I think what happened with like Game of Thrones and some of those shows especially with the internet now is the writers start listening and hearing like the fans and they're just like what they don't like this? I guess we'll fix it. They start caring too much and playing too much fan service to fans and they ignore the narrative that helped them get there. Exactly. And it's like trying to coach.

[Assistant] You guys talked about the toughest Cleveland sports athletes, and for some reason, you guys forgot to mention Bob Feller. What?! Bob Feller! Born in 1918! During, grew up during the Great Depression!


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] He pitched one time, he threw a pitch to his dad.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Broke three of his ribs. He was eight years old. That's a real story. That's a true story. I mean, it was on the internet. Well, now there you go. 17 years old, he starts pitching. Uhm, and then pitches for four years, excellently against grown men. And then he has to stop for a little bit because of a little thing called Hitler.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Pitched, listen to this, he, how many complete games did he pitch? He pitched, uh, wait, 44 shoutouts, 279 complete games.

[Assistant] Well guess who's gonna visit me in jail, Batman? My parents.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Can't you see this poor child has been through enough already? The young boy is distraught.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] There, there, I'm sorry little boy, has this big mean batman scared you?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Let's just use the lasso of truth. Not so fast. Maybe that's how you handle things, wonderful girl, but in our justice system, guilty criminals still reserve the right to a fair trial in a court of law.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And before I forget, I'm gonna need to confiscate that lasso of yours. I'm pretty sure it's unconstitutional. Hey Batman, come at me bro. Oh fucking shit. You ever played Donkey Kong?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That's just a small part of the story. The story was about 17 minutes and that did not include.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Then they went to a clip that was produced shortly before the piece ran yesterday in a live interview. So that was pretty much the only rebuttal that Deshaun Watson's team offered during the segment.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uhm, we talked yesterday about being very careful not to make snap judgments because we're likely only going to hear


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] One side of the story. We heard more of Deshaun's side than I thought we would. Because I knew that Hardin said we are not available for this piece. I didn't think we'd get that. We did. Which I was glad we did because it's all information that we use to sort of make up our minds.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] How if at all did the segment change the way you view this case?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But she never saw him again. She said she was just sort of stringing him along, knowing all along that there was never going to be a second session. You mentioned Leah Graham. She was the spokesperson for, she was actually on the legal team. She was one of Watson's attorneys. Mikey, if we can put her quota.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] This was probably one of the strongest cases that she made. She said it's 22 women. It's one lawyer. There's only one lawyer who is willing to take these cases. And as we know from Ashley Solis's deposition, Mr. Busby was not the first, probably not the second or third lawyer she went to, but he was the only one to take her.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] G. Bush, change your impression at all that


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] She had to shop this to multiple lawyers before she landed on Busby and he's representing all 22 women.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Very fair point. Very fair point. So guys, here's my takeaway. I was looking for things that I was really surprised by. I did have the luxury of getting an excerpt in text that HBO released to us yesterday.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And I was able to read through that. And I have to say, when I read it, it was jarring.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It was, it was very jarring. It was part of the excerpt that we just played.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And I thought to myself, this plays horribly for Watson in print.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] If there is emotion attached to this from the alleged victim, it's going to be even worse. And as you saw, there was emotion. She was clearly emotional.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And judges are moved by emotion, juries are moved by emotion. My biggest takeaway from what I saw last night, the biggest surprise for me was the sound bite from Jimmy Haslam.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Saying that our Brown's investigative team.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Four people removed acquaintances. They do thorough investigations on the kids that they call their names on draft day because they want to know who they're investing in. The fact that he said they were more thorough with this than anything else they had done.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And that was immediately followed by Soledad O'Brien asking one of the two alleged victims who she spoke with.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Did the Browns reach out to you? Have you talked to anyone with the Browns? No they did not. Yeah.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The next line from Soledad was,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The Browns have talked to zero of the 22 women. And in that moment, I felt


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] What do you think they're saying right now in the NFL offices on Park Avenue in New York City?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Since I don't know when, guys. I think it is. It's an all or nothing move with $230 million attached to it. It's the single biggest move this franchise has made maybe in 50 years.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That's so true Tyvis and Bull, your point of if you're going into an investigation.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And you've already made your conclusion, you just wanna support it?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You've got the cart before the horse. That's right. And the point that I want to drive home, why I was so shocked.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Is you make a decision that is this big. I think it's one of the biggest in franchise history.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] In good faith, I don't know how you could go into that if you didn't have conversations with either the lawyers representing the women or the women themselves.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yes, however, normal circumstances, you're absolutely right. But what we've learned from the National Football League is you can escape the criminal system.
