More on the Cowboys in Briolio two is too much to 7 00:00:26.320 --> 00:00:29.839 really get into at seven, including what's going on with the officials. Maybe 8 00:00:29.839 --> 00:00:33.280 we'll get into that at eight thirty a little bit. In the news Morning 9 00:00:33.320 --> 00:00:38.240 News, we have NFL on Fox Rules analyst Dean Blandino calling in at nine 10 00:00:38.320 --> 00:00:44.679 oh five. Someone who knows, really knows, you know, is gonna 11 00:00:45.359 --> 00:00:49.560 drop a knowledge bomb on us at nine oh five unless he comes on and 12 00:00:49.560 --> 00:00:52.920 he's really indifferent. But I don't expect that from Dean. No way, 13 00:00:53.560 --> 00:00:58.840 indifference from Blandino. Absolutely, that's a guys ability known for staying off the 14 00:00:58.880 --> 00:01:03.480 fence. Not him and Taya right and wrong. You will not find his 15 00:01:03.599 --> 00:01:11.400 name in the Epstein documents. No, no way, no now you might 16 00:01:11.439 --> 00:01:14.959 allegedly be on the Jerry Jones party bus and that could get him into some 17 00:01:15.000 --> 00:01:19.560 trouble. But it's all just good fun. Have you ever been on the 18 00:01:19.640 --> 00:01:23.079 Jerry Jones party bus. I have, So I've had Miller light on therefore 19 00:01:23.239 --> 00:01:27.799 with Kavanaugh. I've had Miller light in four Am Pizza with Steven about twenty 20 00:01:27.840 --> 00:01:33.760 eight years ago. It's really a story of coming up with the business. 21 00:01:33.760 --> 00:01:40.959 Really you get in doctored by the Jones family. We'll have a little bit 22 00:01:41.000 --> 00:01:47.760 of audio from Jerry, Yeah, casually calling Jimmy Mann and over under on 23 00:01:47.840 --> 00:01:53.200 how many times you use the word inspired. Mav Sel went through Danny. 24 00:01:53.319 --> 00:01:57.400 It's official. By the way, if you look for Mike Stroy, Mike 25 00:01:57.480 --> 00:02:02.040 Roy a little under the weather, hoping to have him back tomorrow. Just 26 00:02:02.280 --> 00:02:05.840 you know, if you're like, oh, where's Mikey be here tomorrow? 27 00:02:05.959 --> 00:02:08.120 You know what I don't want to hear from Mikey today. I don't want 28 00:02:08.199 --> 00:02:13.479 a text from him saying shake that tidy day. Definitely don't want that. 29 00:02:13.599 --> 00:02:15.400 But I also don't want him saying, hey, you guys, sounded great 30 00:02:15.439 --> 00:02:19.840 this morning. He's gonna do that. No, I want him to sleep 31 00:02:20.439 --> 00:02:23.000 well I want him being critical. No, no, no, I don't 32 00:02:23.000 --> 00:02:24.039 want him listening to this. I want to just tell what we could have 33 00:02:24.039 --> 00:02:27.280 done better. I know what we could have done better. I could have 34 00:02:27.280 --> 00:02:30.240 stayed at home, that would have made it better. But no, I 35 00:02:30.319 --> 00:02:35.199 want Mikey to sleep. That boy needs his rest. He's not feeling good. 36 00:02:35.759 --> 00:02:38.080 So Mark Cuban commented on the sale of the MAVs. I'm taking this 37 00:02:38.120 --> 00:02:42.439 from a transcript from a It was kind of a courtside interview, so there's 38 00:02:42.479 --> 00:02:44.639 like a lot of background noise. Sad enough, I wanted to pull the 39 00:02:45.159 --> 00:02:49.680 audio, but more interesting, the sale finally went through, and we talked 40 00:02:49.680 --> 00:02:53.520 about that extensively over the past couple of months to the Las Vegas Sands group, 41 00:02:53.960 --> 00:02:59.120 and you know, I does kind of seem like there's plans in play 42 00:02:59.199 --> 00:03:01.039 for it, cause I'm going to read some of this to you because I 43 00:03:01.039 --> 00:03:05.479 think it's fascinating. It kind of changes my thoughts on how the MAVs might 44 00:03:05.479 --> 00:03:09.919 be operating in the near future. This might be really good. He had 45 00:03:10.000 --> 00:03:14.719 to talked about like him having the same role, you know, essentially a 46 00:03:14.719 --> 00:03:17.560 handshack agreement. There's nothing, you know, ironclad in the deal, and 47 00:03:17.639 --> 00:03:21.719 he says, yes, it's a partnership. Right. They're not basketball people. 48 00:03:21.800 --> 00:03:23.319 I'm not a real estate person. That's why I did it. I 49 00:03:23.360 --> 00:03:28.039 could have gotten more money selling it to somebody else. But I've known these 50 00:03:28.039 --> 00:03:30.400 guys for a long time. They're great at the things I'm not good at, 51 00:03:30.400 --> 00:03:32.960 and they're good people who are committed to Dallas. They're committed to winning, 52 00:03:34.439 --> 00:03:38.080 and they've got great hearts. I've known them forever. Okay, so 53 00:03:38.159 --> 00:03:42.280 committed to Dallas. That's good. We'll take that at face value. Right 54 00:03:42.280 --> 00:03:46.319 there, Right two or three years ago, you told me hopefully you would 55 00:03:46.360 --> 00:03:50.680 own the mass for another forty years. What happened? And he said it 56 00:03:50.840 --> 00:03:54.560 changed? And they said what changed? I'm assuming this is Brad Townsend, 57 00:03:54.960 --> 00:03:59.560 but it was all in one big Dallas Morning Newspeaks. What changed? And 58 00:03:59.560 --> 00:04:03.680 then Mark you Bean said, oh, media companies are going out of business. 59 00:04:03.919 --> 00:04:12.280 Oh, or they're consolidating. The world is changing. And so what 60 00:04:12.319 --> 00:04:15.919 went from an advantage was not so much an advantage anymore. And it was 61 00:04:15.960 --> 00:04:18.680 two or three years ago I started talking about a casino and destination resort, 62 00:04:18.800 --> 00:04:21.079 and I knew, and I told you guys then I wasn't going to be 63 00:04:21.120 --> 00:04:24.680 the one to build it. It makes sense if someone's going to come in 64 00:04:24.720 --> 00:04:29.480 as a partner and invest potentially billions of dollars and they're going to want equity. 65 00:04:30.480 --> 00:04:34.680 Well, there's a lot of thoughts, dark thoughts I had about what 66 00:04:34.720 --> 00:04:41.439 he said about media companies going out of business or consolidating, and they all 67 00:04:41.439 --> 00:04:47.439 do seem to be accurate just knowing as I'll say, my experience has changed 68 00:04:47.439 --> 00:04:54.639 in the last five years in media. I'm sure yours has, and I 69 00:04:54.759 --> 00:05:00.560 think the I don't think I'm doing anything pull a golf. I don't think 70 00:05:00.560 --> 00:05:03.720 I'm fine for this. I mean, my freak experience has not been what 71 00:05:03.839 --> 00:05:10.439 I thought it would be. I know. But I also have never been 72 00:05:10.439 --> 00:05:13.480 a part of starting a radio station either, right, So I mean there's 73 00:05:13.480 --> 00:05:17.120 a lot that goes into that. But you know, I think COVID has 74 00:05:17.600 --> 00:05:21.199 something to do with this. Technology has a lot to do with this, 75 00:05:21.560 --> 00:05:29.240 maybe more so than COVID. I think what he's saying is the revenue that 76 00:05:29.480 --> 00:05:36.360 the teams could depend upon was mainly sourced from their TV deals, with their 77 00:05:36.399 --> 00:05:42.199 media deals, and we've seen what's happened with you know, the Bally's mess 78 00:05:42.480 --> 00:05:47.480 over the last couple of years, that can't be not taken into consideration of 79 00:05:47.519 --> 00:05:54.600 his decision to part with a big percentage of his ownership rights in this team. 80 00:05:55.560 --> 00:06:02.439 But man Mark Cuban, it needs to be taken seriously. I think 81 00:06:02.480 --> 00:06:08.759 his track record kind of speaks for itself. You know, the guy invented 82 00:06:08.879 --> 00:06:13.720 basically or was you know, I don't know how much he was writing code 83 00:06:14.000 --> 00:06:16.600 or back in the day, but you know the fact that we can even 84 00:06:16.720 --> 00:06:26.399 stream audio r radio on the internet, yeah, is basically due in large 85 00:06:26.439 --> 00:06:31.319 part to his vision and the company that he created. And I know people 86 00:06:31.519 --> 00:06:35.319 personally, very good friends of mine that worked for Broadcast dot Com back in 87 00:06:35.360 --> 00:06:40.399 the day that were paid in stock options that will never have to work a 88 00:06:40.519 --> 00:06:46.879 day in their life. And when he sold that to Yahoo for that insane 89 00:06:46.920 --> 00:06:48.720 amount of money back then, that was a long time ago. But man, 90 00:06:48.800 --> 00:06:55.120 the guy has been He's all I'm saying. He sees, He sees 91 00:06:55.160 --> 00:07:00.959 the chessboard several moves beyond what you or I see, Yeah, and what 92 00:07:01.079 --> 00:07:04.759 the average human being sees. He knows where things are headed. He was 93 00:07:05.519 --> 00:07:09.079 ten years ago, or maybe it wasn't ten years ago, but it was 94 00:07:09.360 --> 00:07:11.959 a fair amount of years ago. Six seven years ago, he was the 95 00:07:11.959 --> 00:07:15.160 one that was pimping TikTok. Well that was nothing. He's like, dude, 96 00:07:15.160 --> 00:07:17.959 you guys got to get on TikTok. You're gonna it's gonna blow you 97 00:07:17.959 --> 00:07:20.879 away. TikTok is going to be this and this and this and we're all 98 00:07:20.920 --> 00:07:26.279 like TikTok and it just come out. Yeah. And how concerned he was 99 00:07:26.319 --> 00:07:30.040 because of attention spans yeah, and short clips and things like that, and 100 00:07:30.079 --> 00:07:32.720 how that would affect watching basketball games. The guy is brilliant. He's a 101 00:07:32.800 --> 00:07:36.759 really smart dude. And like I said, he sees the entire chess board 102 00:07:36.759 --> 00:07:42.160 and he knows what moves are going to be made. I think a big 103 00:07:42.199 --> 00:07:47.040 percentage of the time he's right. So yeah, I think that this move, 104 00:07:47.199 --> 00:07:50.680 you can take it at face value. I do you believe one of 105 00:07:50.720 --> 00:07:55.839 what he's saying is one hundred percent accurate? I mean maybe not. You 106 00:07:55.879 --> 00:08:00.519 know, there's always some average TV deal is way different than some teams in 107 00:08:00.560 --> 00:08:03.319 the league. Some teams have a you know, are relying on that and 108 00:08:03.319 --> 00:08:05.600 it's working out fine for them, sure the matter, Sure, and a 109 00:08:05.600 --> 00:08:09.439 weird deal just like the Rangers are and things like that. But this is 110 00:08:09.480 --> 00:08:13.600 my fear. You're seeing basketball and baseball team struggle because of the way. 111 00:08:15.160 --> 00:08:18.120 This is where another owner in town should get credit. The way Jerry Jones 112 00:08:18.120 --> 00:08:24.560 spearheaded the TV deals for the NFL back in the early nineties have really led 113 00:08:24.639 --> 00:08:31.960 to the NFL and now college football benefiting from TV deals just handling the salary 114 00:08:33.000 --> 00:08:37.559 cap in college it's a little different, but we're seeing how TV deals are 115 00:08:37.600 --> 00:08:43.639 basically reforming the conferences as we know them in college football and all that is 116 00:08:45.320 --> 00:08:50.840 right. Football fine on that end, Baseball, basketball, hockey, whatever, 117 00:08:50.639 --> 00:08:56.440 a little more relyant on those TV deals or it's not perfect. It's 118 00:08:56.480 --> 00:08:58.639 a little more shaky about what you can do well. The difference is Kevin. 119 00:08:58.679 --> 00:09:07.679 With the NFL, they're in their partners with national broadcasts, Like every 120 00:09:07.840 --> 00:09:13.960 NFL game is a nationally broadcast game if you have depending on your market. 121 00:09:13.960 --> 00:09:16.279 Now, they're not going to show every game. That's what the Sunday tickets 122 00:09:16.279 --> 00:09:22.360 for. But as far as your local team, it's gonna be on Fox, 123 00:09:22.519 --> 00:09:26.679 it's gonna be on Amazon, or it's going to be on you know, 124 00:09:26.840 --> 00:09:30.000 CBS, or it's going to be on ESPN. It's going to be 125 00:09:30.080 --> 00:09:35.360 on on a on a format that you can nationally access most of the time 126 00:09:35.519 --> 00:09:39.679 for free pretty much if it's your local team, every time for free on 127 00:09:39.759 --> 00:09:45.039 a on a major network, unless it's on Amazon or it's on ESPN. 128 00:09:46.399 --> 00:09:50.039 With the with the baseball and basketball and hockey markets, they're all regionalized. 129 00:09:52.320 --> 00:09:58.240 There's too many games and they're all regionalized. So if your home team is 130 00:09:58.000 --> 00:10:05.639 playing in you don't have that channel, or you don't have access to that 131 00:10:05.759 --> 00:10:07.840 channel, or you used to have access to that channel it was taken away, 132 00:10:09.200 --> 00:10:11.799 or they couldn't come up with the right deal for the platform that you're 133 00:10:11.919 --> 00:10:15.919 using, and you're limited to one or two alternatives to be able to get 134 00:10:15.960 --> 00:10:18.360 it, and you don't want to make the change, you're screwed. Yeah, 135 00:10:18.440 --> 00:10:22.679 you don't get to watch your team. And that I'm telling you that 136 00:10:22.720 --> 00:10:28.799 they are losing so much money by the majority of their fans not being able 137 00:10:28.840 --> 00:10:33.039 to watch their home teams because not many people are making the jump to direct 138 00:10:33.120 --> 00:10:37.720 TV. They're just not just to watch the MAVs, Stars and Rangers or 139 00:10:37.799 --> 00:10:45.440 changing to or getting the cable or whatever right or God forbid downloading that stupid 140 00:10:45.480 --> 00:10:48.039 ass ballys app and I guess works a little bit both ways too. That's 141 00:10:48.080 --> 00:10:50.559 agree, which he's still even with the ballet's app, you still can't get 142 00:10:50.559 --> 00:10:52.639 all three teams. Well, this is where it all runs in together. 143 00:10:52.679 --> 00:10:56.200 And that's why we're in a bit of a mess right now, I would 144 00:10:56.240 --> 00:11:01.399 say with viewing content because there's so much and why TikTok is so popular too. 145 00:11:01.440 --> 00:11:05.960 These platforms are also jacking up prices because they are dealing with problems so 146 00:11:07.519 --> 00:11:11.480 media companies, like he's saying, consolidating or going out of business. Part 147 00:11:11.519 --> 00:11:15.480 of the reason that's happening too is they're pissing off their customers. But that's 148 00:11:15.519 --> 00:11:20.200 a it's all big, wide topic point is he mentioned basically specifically. That's 149 00:11:20.240 --> 00:11:22.919 the first time I'd kind of seen him say that's part of the reason they 150 00:11:22.919 --> 00:11:28.159 did this. Also the interesting I could have gotten more money elsewhere, I 151 00:11:28.200 --> 00:11:33.919 don't know. I believe that, and you know. Cubid also said he 152 00:11:33.039 --> 00:11:35.919 was asked your belief the new arena will be built in Dallas. He said, 153 00:11:35.960 --> 00:11:39.320 for sure. The question said in Dallas city limits. He said, 154 00:11:39.399 --> 00:11:46.159 Dallas proper. Now that's to go with the story where Las Vegas Sandsgroup had 155 00:11:46.159 --> 00:11:50.960 bought some land near the old Texas Stadium site in Irving they're probably just looking 156 00:11:50.000 --> 00:11:54.240 to have more land in real estate, like you said, because real estate 157 00:11:54.440 --> 00:11:58.799 is good. What happens if in two years the Addleson family doesn't like the 158 00:11:58.799 --> 00:12:01.159 way things are going on the basket side, Mark said, it's like anything. 159 00:12:01.159 --> 00:12:05.279 They'd have the final say, for sure, he's the governor, but 160 00:12:05.360 --> 00:12:09.600 I'm sure we would work it out. Uh. And by the governor, 161 00:12:09.679 --> 00:12:13.759 he means Miria Maddison's son, who will be more in town and more you 162 00:12:13.799 --> 00:12:20.960 know, involved, will in effect decisions in terms of luxury tax and basketball. 163 00:12:22.200 --> 00:12:24.120 Cuban said, they've basically just said, do what you've got to do. 164 00:12:24.200 --> 00:12:28.080 I want a new arena. Financially, we're in a far better position 165 00:12:28.159 --> 00:12:33.919 as of this afternoon than we were yesterday afternoon. For years, we asked 166 00:12:35.000 --> 00:12:37.799 Dirt Davitsky to take less money so the Mavericks could stay under the salary cap 167 00:12:37.840 --> 00:12:41.240 and not have to pay the luxury tax, which should be a lot of 168 00:12:41.279 --> 00:12:45.639 money. Okay, and he did it, and he did a lot. 169 00:12:46.080 --> 00:12:50.480 If the MAVs can all of a sudden blow out and do what the Warriors 170 00:12:50.519 --> 00:12:56.000 have done and just start going over the salary cap and playing a paying a 171 00:12:56.039 --> 00:13:01.559 hefty luxury tax fee, to go over the cap a little bit. That 172 00:13:01.720 --> 00:13:05.840 changes what they can do from a trade standpoint. Every Dallas Mavericks trade we've 173 00:13:05.840 --> 00:13:09.320 talked about for the last ten years, and the new CBA, you've gone, 174 00:13:09.360 --> 00:13:11.919 well, we're gonna make the money work. How do you make the 175 00:13:11.919 --> 00:13:13.639 money work? And when you're paying Luca and you're paying Kyrie what you're paying 176 00:13:13.679 --> 00:13:18.159 him, I think that's highly interesting. And he talked about we're in a 177 00:13:18.200 --> 00:13:24.480 better position as of today than we are were yesterday, big maps, trade 178 00:13:24.559 --> 00:13:28.679 rumers. Siakam of the Raptors, who's a very good, big, very 179 00:13:28.679 --> 00:13:33.840 good player power forward, and I think which fit really well. You know, 180 00:13:33.879 --> 00:13:37.960 they're dangling him on the trade market. The Mavericks have been reported as 181 00:13:37.000 --> 00:13:41.919 one of the three teams interested in Pascal Siakam. Money's going to be big 182 00:13:41.960 --> 00:13:46.519 there. But if you can all of a sudden go over the salary cap 183 00:13:46.600 --> 00:13:52.600 and pay the luxury tax because of new ownership, who has Las Vegas money, 184 00:13:52.639 --> 00:13:58.039 Well then I kind of like this now, yeah, And that's something 185 00:13:58.080 --> 00:14:00.799 I did not even think about until he said that, And I just that 186 00:14:00.919 --> 00:14:03.600 kind of blew my nuts off a little bit, because like, well, 187 00:14:03.679 --> 00:14:05.360 I can get anyone. Yeah, money is no object, of course, 188 00:14:05.399 --> 00:14:09.960 that that definitely benefits. True is that I think a lot of people when 189 00:14:09.000 --> 00:14:15.639 they heard that it was a Vegas operation family that was buying, you know, 190 00:14:16.000 --> 00:14:20.080 the majority stake in the MAVs, that there was a reasonable fear, 191 00:14:20.720 --> 00:14:24.039 a natural fear to think, oh no, yeah, you know, with 192 00:14:24.159 --> 00:14:30.639 all of uh, you know, the the rumors or the possibility or likelihood 193 00:14:30.639 --> 00:14:35.240 of the A's moving to Las Vegas, the fact that the Raiders are there 194 00:14:35.320 --> 00:14:39.279 now, the fact that they have a hockey team. I mean, it 195 00:14:39.279 --> 00:14:43.120 would complete you know, if they were end up getting the A's and the 196 00:14:43.159 --> 00:14:46.759 Mavericks were to move there. I mean, you've got all four major sports 197 00:14:46.759 --> 00:14:52.919 in that city that's already a pretty damn big attraction city. I think I 198 00:14:52.000 --> 00:14:54.600 think it was just a common fear that people are like, oh my god, 199 00:14:56.320 --> 00:14:58.279 they're going to move the MAVs. This is where this arena deal is 200 00:14:58.360 --> 00:15:01.519 up. They're going to They're going to take the maps in Las Vegas. 201 00:15:01.600 --> 00:15:05.039 I don't believe that the family wants to branch out of last things exactly exactly. 202 00:15:05.360 --> 00:15:09.840 Well. They want gambling to be legal in dowb in texts, yes, 203 00:15:09.879 --> 00:15:13.399 and they're going to lobby and pay as much money as they possibly can. 204 00:15:13.440 --> 00:15:16.960 They've shown in the past that they're willing to spend a ton of money 205 00:15:18.240 --> 00:15:22.759 lobbying for this law to change in Texas. I think they're going to go 206 00:15:24.039 --> 00:15:28.519 to double down, triple down even harder to make that happen, because it 207 00:15:28.559 --> 00:15:33.440 will only benefit this whole new arena situation which they're been looking at, which 208 00:15:33.440 --> 00:15:37.720 I know Cuban's been looking at for a while now. Now he has these 209 00:15:37.759 --> 00:15:43.480 developers, the you know, real estate people in place that have essentially unlimited 210 00:15:43.519 --> 00:15:48.840 resources to try and make this happen. I don't think they're going anywhere. 211 00:15:48.960 --> 00:15:52.320 I don't. I don't think you're going to shway whatever fears that you had 212 00:15:52.360 --> 00:15:56.440 about initially when you heard this news that that the Mavericks are moving anywhere. 213 00:15:58.200 --> 00:16:03.879 I like that Cuban still, you know, the manager of basketball operations, 214 00:16:03.879 --> 00:16:04.759 and I think he said something it's like, yeah, all make all of 215 00:16:04.799 --> 00:16:10.279 the basketball and personnel decisions unless I need to, unless I try to sign 216 00:16:10.320 --> 00:16:12.159 somebody for three hundred and fifty million dollars a year. And it feels like 217 00:16:12.200 --> 00:16:15.600 I'm going to run into any problems here. Yeah, And it feels like 218 00:16:15.679 --> 00:16:18.399 it's Nico's show right now. Nico Harrison the gym right now anyways, and 219 00:16:18.559 --> 00:16:22.200 Mark obviously has a little bit say there, well a lot to say all 220 00:16:22.320 --> 00:16:23.519 the say, but it feels like he's kind of let Nico do his thing. 221 00:16:25.639 --> 00:16:27.799 They also asked to cover the Cowboys. It's hard to imagine them not 222 00:16:27.879 --> 00:16:30.519 being a part of the Jones family. Did you ever have that vision that 223 00:16:30.600 --> 00:16:33.639 the MAVs would be in the Cuban family forever? And he said, it's 224 00:16:33.679 --> 00:16:37.600 different if you look at the age of my kids fourteen, seventeen, and 225 00:16:37.639 --> 00:16:41.799 twenty and I'm sixty five. And he said, I look twenty five and 226 00:16:41.799 --> 00:16:44.159 a act fifteen, but I'm sixty five. So if you do the math 227 00:16:44.480 --> 00:16:48.360 math, it takes them twenty years for one of them to really learn what 228 00:16:48.399 --> 00:16:52.159 all this is about and to know that they want to do it. And 229 00:16:52.200 --> 00:16:56.080 then they decide they don't want to do it, and I'm eighty five years 230 00:16:56.080 --> 00:16:59.960 old. Then what happens? So he wanted to get ahead of it. 231 00:17:00.559 --> 00:17:03.360 He said, if I would have had kids twenty years earlier like Jerry did, 232 00:17:03.919 --> 00:17:07.359 it might have been different. Well, mean, look, I I 233 00:17:07.400 --> 00:17:12.160 look those old pictures of Jerry buying the team. I made me google this 234 00:17:12.200 --> 00:17:17.640 today and look how young Jerry and Steven, Jerry Junior and Steven look and 235 00:17:17.720 --> 00:17:21.319 Charlotte in those pictures. I mean, dude, in nineteen eighty nine when 236 00:17:21.319 --> 00:17:22.920 he bought the team, I thought he was seventy years old. Then yeah, 237 00:17:22.960 --> 00:17:26.640 he was like the forty forties. Yeah, it's crazy. So that's 238 00:17:26.720 --> 00:17:30.839 kind of like, well basically your age, keV Oh. When he bought 239 00:17:30.839 --> 00:17:33.799 the Cowboys, Cuban said, he was asked, how were you notified that 240 00:17:33.839 --> 00:17:37.880 the sales approved that. I looked at my bank statement, so money, 241 00:17:37.880 --> 00:17:41.680 money, money, Can you imagine? I cannot what that feel like. 242 00:17:42.200 --> 00:17:45.400 I think it would. I mean, I think it would feel good. 243 00:17:45.759 --> 00:17:48.200 It'd be overwhelming, but I think it would be great to just have a 244 00:17:48.200 --> 00:17:52.920 big bump in your you're paid. I mean for him, it maybe nothing, 245 00:17:52.400 --> 00:17:56.480 because he's got it all. I'm excited when I see a seventy four 246 00:17:56.599 --> 00:18:03.960 dollars deposit from my quarterly ass cap earnings for some food fighters knockoff song that's 247 00:18:03.960 --> 00:18:10.920 playing on some dating show in Australia that I wrote twenty years ago. I'm 248 00:18:10.920 --> 00:18:12.599 not kidding on it. What dating show, Oh, I don't know. 249 00:18:12.680 --> 00:18:18.440 Temptation Island. You get the you get the sheet that tells you were all 250 00:18:18.480 --> 00:18:22.160 of the music that you created is being played. It's hilarious. They'll tell 251 00:18:22.200 --> 00:18:26.400 you. They'll tell you the song, and they'll tell you the show and 252 00:18:26.480 --> 00:18:30.079 for how long it played, and it'll say, you know, the season 253 00:18:30.119 --> 00:18:36.559 four episodes Yees, Season four episode seven, Runaway. Yeah, a song 254 00:18:36.599 --> 00:18:41.000 called poo Flingers, which was the a company needed. You know, we 255 00:18:41.039 --> 00:18:44.400 need something that sounds like the food Fighters, but obviously do we don't want 256 00:18:44.400 --> 00:18:45.920 to pay the food fighters, so knock it off, and we do these 257 00:18:47.000 --> 00:18:51.440 knockoff songs. Yeah. God, this was seriously like twenty years ago, 258 00:18:51.920 --> 00:18:56.559 and it played for three seconds. You got point one sense or you got 259 00:18:56.599 --> 00:19:00.079 four cents for that. But you rack up enough of those, you know. 260 00:19:00.119 --> 00:19:03.079 I quit doing it number of years back because you weren't making enough. 261 00:19:03.240 --> 00:19:04.480 Well, well, you know, you got to flood the market with that 262 00:19:04.519 --> 00:19:07.759 stuff. You have to have thousands of pieces that are out there before you've 263 00:19:07.759 --> 00:19:11.200 see any real money. But yeah, like I said, beat that little 264 00:19:11.279 --> 00:19:14.759 little bit of mailbox money that shows up every every three months. It's like, 265 00:19:14.799 --> 00:19:17.880 hey, oh it's one hundred and twelve dollars this time. All right, 266 00:19:18.359 --> 00:19:22.119 you know, imagine getting whatever he got. That's why I do podcasting 267 00:19:22.160 --> 00:19:26.039 on the side. How much did he make off of the sale? I 268 00:19:26.519 --> 00:19:30.440 don't remember. It was billions, right, I think so? Yeah, 269 00:19:30.480 --> 00:19:33.319 he checked his bank statement. We didn't get to the long horned stuff, 270 00:19:33.400 --> 00:19:37.200 dude, but maybe we'll have time.
