He wanted an online tournament to get into it basically. Yeah, 7 00:00:37.159 --> 00:00:39.840 Yeah, he was like the first, and he kind of started the 8 00:00:39.880 --> 00:00:45.439 whole The whole wave of online players got me playing, and it was hot 9 00:00:45.479 --> 00:00:50.520 and fun until they froze all the accounts on Black Monday. So many people 10 00:00:50.560 --> 00:00:53.600 lost a lot of money. Thank you. I think I only had about 11 00:00:53.600 --> 00:00:56.439 ten dollars in the account. Yeah.

We would play all night at the Old I won't 18 00:01:19.280 --> 00:01:21.879 even say the name of the club. You could probably figure it out, 19 00:01:22.040 --> 00:01:26.079 but they would let us hang out after hours and use the pool table as 20 00:01:26.079 --> 00:01:30.439 a card table. Yeah yeah, smoking SIGs and playing poker. Yes, 21 00:01:30.040 --> 00:01:34.560 doing lots of illegal things. And then you walk out open the back door 22 00:01:34.599 --> 00:01:40.599 and you realize that the sun's out. Well that's maneuver. Huh, it's 23 00:01:40.640 --> 00:01:44.439 a bad feeling.

And Game of Thrones premiered 79 00:06:30.399 --> 00:06:36.360 on this date in twenty eleven. April seventeenth, twenty eleven. Damn do 80 00:06:36.399 --> 00:06:41.920 you remember it? Before it came out, I'd never heard of it as 81 00:06:41.959 --> 00:06:46.040 far as the books by George Martin never heard. No, I had no 82 00:06:46.079 --> 00:06:48.480 idea. That was the thing. It started gaining traction. I still had 83 00:06:48.519 --> 00:06:54.360 no idea. And I remember one day I just clicked on HBO in the 84 00:06:54.360 --> 00:06:58.079 middle of an episode and it was probably episode four or five, and it 85 00:06:58.160 --> 00:07:06.680 was when cal Drogo was pouring the liquid gold onto Calisi's brother. Yeah, 86 00:07:08.079 --> 00:07:11.199 Danaris's brother who was supposed to be the king. He said, crowd for 87 00:07:11.279 --> 00:07:16.600 a king, important Multen. That was one of my happier moments in that 88 00:07:16.680 --> 00:07:19.639 series. That's the moment. That's the first thing I saw, and I'm 89 00:07:19.639 --> 00:07:24.720 like, oh, as start And then I watch that episode over and then 90 00:07:24.720 --> 00:07:29.199 I started from the beginning and squarely onboard. Ever since, I never heard 91 00:07:29.240 --> 00:07:33.160 of the books. But once the announcement was made about this series and once 92 00:07:33.279 --> 00:07:39.519 HBO debuted it, I heard from a lot of people that had read the 93 00:07:39.560 --> 00:07:42.160 books that I had no idea that they were fans. I was like, 94 00:07:42.199 --> 00:07:46.800 oh, my god, they're making something out of Game of Thrones or whatever 95 00:07:46.800 --> 00:07:49.680 it's called The Fiery Winds of Earth and Saturday or something, Yeah, something 96 00:07:49.720 --> 00:07:54.680 like that. What did I say? But yeah, people that they were 97 00:07:54.759 --> 00:07:58.759 kind of like they liked these novels, but closetly because I think it was 98 00:07:58.800 --> 00:08:01.480 probably a small group of people that were into that type of thing. But 99 00:08:01.560 --> 00:08:07.279 when HBO actualized it and realized it into a legitimate series and people came out 100 00:08:07.319 --> 00:08:13.000 of the woodwork and just loved talking about those books. They're not staying true 101 00:08:13.079 --> 00:08:16.839 to the books, Well shut up and let me watch my damn show. 102 00:08:16.120 --> 00:08:20.000 I like it. It was so it was not doing the books. So 103 00:08:20.120 --> 00:08:24.959 good, so good, And I know they're still wigging out about the next 104 00:08:24.959 --> 00:08:28.720 book not coming out. Huh. People are freaking about that. But fun 105 00:08:28.759 --> 00:08:33.519 to watch fun times, fun, fun communal television back in the day before 106 00:08:33.559 --> 00:08:37.279 we get to talkbacks. I've got a residual from Dingo's Morning News if you 107 00:08:37.320 --> 00:08:41.399 don't mind, and it's a little bit of fun audio as well. So 108 00:08:43.080 --> 00:08:46.480 I didn't know about this, and apparently neither did anybody else. But in 109 00:08:46.519 --> 00:08:54.399 twenty ten, just I think about two years after Sopranos ended and kind of 110 00:08:54.480 --> 00:08:58.799 left the ending the final scene of the final episode open to interpretation of what 111 00:08:58.840 --> 00:09:07.039 the ultimate fate of Tony Soprano was. In twenty ten, James Gandolfini reprised 112 00:09:09.000 --> 00:09:18.799 the character of Tony soprano with Edie Falco as Carmela in a recruit video to 113 00:09:18.919 --> 00:09:26.200 help get Lebron James to the Nicks. Did you know this? Okay, 114 00:09:26.440 --> 00:09:31.320 this has apparently been something that no one has ever seen, And fourteen years 115 00:09:31.399 --> 00:09:39.799 later, this thing comes out and it was a podcast, the latest episode 116 00:09:41.039 --> 00:09:46.200 of a There's a reporter named Pablo Torre and he does a podcast called finds 117 00:09:46.200 --> 00:09:48.519 Out and it's basically what we do. It's just a bunch of knuckleheads sitting 118 00:09:48.519 --> 00:09:54.440 around microphones talking about sports and stuff. Well, they start talking about this 119 00:09:54.440 --> 00:09:58.080 thing and he's like, well, I've got the video and it's unearthed footage 120 00:09:58.480 --> 00:10:05.879 of this video made by Gandalfini and Falco to help woo Lebron James from Cleveland 121 00:10:05.960 --> 00:10:11.039 to the Knicks, where he ultimately and obviously famously ended up in Miami. 122 00:10:11.759 --> 00:10:13.600 Well, I've got the video and I wanted to play the audio if you 123 00:10:13.639 --> 00:10:16.840 have any interest in hearing this, it's kind of cool. I'll set the 124 00:10:16.879 --> 00:10:22.679 scene. It's Carmelo soprano in the kitchen. It's Tony with a full beard, 125 00:10:22.799 --> 00:10:26.759 sitting at a table reading a newspaper and apparently they're in witness protection. 126 00:10:28.519 --> 00:10:37.120 The witness Protection Program, and the audio goes something like this, real quick, 127 00:10:37.159 --> 00:10:39.159 you're gonna hear some laughter in the background. That's the laughter of the 128 00:10:39.200 --> 00:10:45.120 podcasters that are reviewing this live for the first time. And I'll start it 129 00:10:45.120 --> 00:10:50.480 one more time. Sorry about that, Tony. I'm so glad we moved 130 00:10:50.480 --> 00:11:00.159 to New York. Life is so much better now. Protection Program. He's 131 00:11:00.159 --> 00:11:03.960 got to find a place for your friend Lebron to live. What's he likes? 132 00:11:03.000 --> 00:11:07.799 A mod of guy, what he respects tradition. Here's something classy on 133 00:11:07.840 --> 00:11:11.879 the East Side. Was it big enough? It's gonna be entertaining a lot 134 00:11:11.879 --> 00:11:15.559 of people in New York. It's very expensive. Oh, that's not gonna 135 00:11:15.600 --> 00:11:22.279 be a problem. You gotta find something magnificent. Something there's nothing in the 136 00:11:22.320 --> 00:11:24.799 world like in one of a kind like he is. Well, here's a 137 00:11:24.840 --> 00:11:28.080 place, he says. It gets really loud. Then take a look. 138 00:11:28.240 --> 00:11:35.759 They show a picture of Madison Square Garden. Oh yeah, yeah, that's 139 00:11:35.840 --> 00:11:41.120 it. That's gonna be perfect for Allow me to reintroduce myself. My name 140 00:11:41.200 --> 00:11:50.840 is the reason. Yeah, it's half the reason I was playing this. 141 00:11:50.919 --> 00:11:54.519 So the guys are laughing when they go to the jay Z tune and you 142 00:11:54.559 --> 00:12:07.039 get this gold.

It's sweet, very heavy, very sweet, good 171 00:14:26.679 --> 00:14:30.799 morning. Don't beat This is a roseppe. I just came back to my 172 00:14:31.320 --> 00:14:35.360 motherland of Italy this morning. A actually, and the plane almost crashed and 173 00:14:35.440 --> 00:14:41.600 everybody was screaming and scared. But there was a hero, somebody named Cavio. 174 00:14:41.159 --> 00:14:46.840 He got everybody came by playing around the jeopardy. He had a whole 175 00:14:46.919 --> 00:14:50.759 luggage full of table games in the board games, so thank you Kevio. 176 00:14:52.759 --> 00:14:58.919 Okay, see he had a whole luggage hold loge Okay. He introduced himself 177 00:14:58.919 --> 00:15:03.639 as Hoseppi. Uh huh, so we have the blend of Jose and Giuseppe. 178 00:15:03.759 --> 00:15:07.679 Weird that Kat would play Jeopardy, not family feud, but I was 179 00:15:07.679 --> 00:15:11.320 thinking that would be the thing that would calm down the passengers, is the 180 00:15:11.399 --> 00:15:20.399 impromptu family This will do it. We had to hit ten answers are on 181 00:15:20.440 --> 00:15:22.720 the board and you're like kind of buckling up and shaking him. You're like, 182 00:15:22.720 --> 00:15:28.360 all right, Blue, that's great. Kat should feel pretty good because 183 00:15:28.480 --> 00:15:33.440 uh sroy putting his find info out there means that all twelve people that listen 184 00:15:33.480 --> 00:15:37.840 to this show are monitoring, not monitoring, but yes, monitoring his flight 185 00:15:37.480 --> 00:15:43.799 to ensure his safety. And you know we care were okay, twelve is 186 00:15:43.879 --> 00:15:46.279 maybe a little high, yeah, but thank you. We were shooting for 187 00:15:46.320 --> 00:15:50.840 the Barcelona listeners so they could make little glitter signs and welcome Kevio, which 188 00:15:50.840 --> 00:15:54.200 we don't know if it happened or not. It may have, all right, 189 00:15:54.240 --> 00:16:00.759 one more guys, who's gonna play the OJ Simpson?

Sure they will? They'll 192 00:16:10.559 --> 00:16:15.720 make a subtle joke about it. Will they make a subtle joke about hot 193 00:16:15.840 --> 00:16:23.200 gone wrong? You know? Maybe Nordburg is passed away like the real O 194 00:16:23.399 --> 00:16:36.919 J Who knows last one? Cavy went on bake k and I know it's 195 00:16:37.039 --> 00:16:57.720 only been a day, but miss Kevy, miss Cavevy, he is a 196 00:16:57.840 --> 00:17:03.160 legend.
