Speaker 1: Thank you, John.
Speaker 2: It is seven four here at Kentucky had this morning
Speaker 2: News with Nick Coffee on news radio eight forty w
Speaker 2: h as the crew is all here.
Speaker 1: You just heard from John Shannon.
Speaker 2: We've got Scott Fitzgerald and mister Johnny Alden alongside today
Speaker 2: And as you heard in the news update there, there's
Speaker 2: now a curfew in LA which is certainly needed, I
Speaker 2: would say, But last night yesterday, I suppose, I guess
Speaker 2: more so yesterday. It sounds as if overnight and maybe
Speaker 2: even currently, the looting has has stopped. And if there's
Speaker 2: more of it that takes place, I'm sure there's going
Speaker 2: to be cell phoned video that ends up on the
Speaker 2: internet and we'll find out. But recently in LA, there
Speaker 2: were it looks as if a handful of stores at
Speaker 2: an Adida store, in Apple Store, a place called Shoe Palace, dispensaries,
Speaker 2: a pharmacy, and a jewelry store that were that were
Speaker 2: looted and vandalized. Buildings and police vehicles were to face
Speaker 2: with graffiti across the ten block radius. So I mentioned
Speaker 2: this at the beginning of the show today. For some reason,
Speaker 2: I just that stuff gives me a pit in my stomach.
Speaker 2: I mean, it's not like it's I don't know what
Speaker 2: it is. Maybe I'm asking for somebody to diagnose me
Speaker 2: as to why watching somebody vandalizing and looting a business
Speaker 2: is such a I can't watch it. I mean a
Speaker 2: lot of people enjoy watching like things destruct, but it's
Speaker 2: just it's it's awful, and I guess it takes me
Speaker 2: back to when that was happening here.
Speaker 1: I remember this.
Speaker 2: So my son was born on June first, and I
Speaker 2: remember that was a Monday, but I remember that weekend,
Speaker 2: even that Sunday night before we went to the hospital
Speaker 2: the next morning my wife was induced. There was live
Speaker 2: coverage here in Louisville from all the local news stations,
Speaker 2: just covering what was taking place, and you could tell
Speaker 2: with what you saw there was a real difference in
Speaker 2: those that were going about it peacefully, those that were
Speaker 2: going about it not peacefully violently, and then those that
Speaker 2: were there just to simply destroy and steal. And I
Speaker 2: don't know, it was it was almost like I couldn't
Speaker 2: quite believe what I was seeing, and I remember just
Speaker 2: watching it live. One of the news anchors, I believe
Speaker 2: it was for WDRB, was was walking through walking through
Speaker 2: downtown Louisville and they were right near where we are
Speaker 2: currently at four Street Live. And it was Eddie Merlows,
Speaker 2: which is still closed down here. Just just I mean
Speaker 2: I can see it out of our window here, and
Speaker 2: just to see. It's one of those things you just
Speaker 2: don't forget because it's a place that I didn't go
Speaker 2: to frequently, but I've been to a few times and
Speaker 2: you're familiar with it, and you're watching people just destroy
Speaker 2: the windows and go in and steal the booze from
Speaker 2: the bar, and just I mean, even if there's not
Speaker 2: anything of value that they see that's worth taking, the
Speaker 2: other task at hand for them seems to just be
Speaker 2: to destroy things. And it's just I don't know. It
Speaker 2: was obviously really sad to see that, But since then,
Speaker 2: anytime I think about looting, I think of that visual
Speaker 2: and you know that obviously went on around here at
Speaker 2: that time, and it got a lot of attention for
Speaker 2: good reason. Uh, And it's just it's awful. I mean,
Speaker 2: that doesn't accomplish anything. And those are people that I
Speaker 2: just assume know of. Okay, there's unrest in this city.
Speaker 2: Protests have gotten to a certain point. We now have
Speaker 2: an opportunity to go and just join in. But we're
Speaker 2: not joining in for any reason as far as wanting
Speaker 2: any type of change. We're there to take advantage of
Speaker 2: the situation and steal and destroy.
Speaker 3: Well.
Speaker 4: And anybody who's had either their home or their vehicle
Speaker 4: broken into knows that feeling. It's as someone who's had
Speaker 4: their vehicle broken into.
Speaker 5: Yeah, you do, and you know and you hear this,
Speaker 5: that's what it is.
Speaker 1: That that's got to be.
Speaker 2: That's got to be even though I don't own Eddie
Speaker 2: Merleaus or have any connection, but yes, knowing that it's
Speaker 2: the city that I lived my whole life in and
Speaker 2: and will always love to see it, it's yeah, it's
Speaker 2: being violated.
Speaker 5: Yeah.
Speaker 4: And when I was a watch when my car was
Speaker 4: broken into in broad daylight, mind you, in a parking lot.
Speaker 4: I watched the video and it's even worse when you
Speaker 4: go back and watch the video because it sort of
Speaker 4: doubles that up and amplifies it even more.
Speaker 3: So.
Speaker 5: That's only a car for me.
Speaker 4: My insurance covered it and I was able to get
Speaker 4: you know, I'm back on the road. You're talking about
Speaker 4: people's livelihoods like this is what even if it's a
Speaker 4: chain store. You're talking about people that count on that
Speaker 4: to go to work, maybe to feed their kids.
Speaker 2: I've heard I've heard people share business owners share stories
Speaker 2: of the feeling they get when they look at surveillance
Speaker 2: footage to see that somebody has broken too their establishment,
Speaker 2: and again you feel violated. Yeah, I mean, I rarely
Speaker 2: keep anything of value in my car, but if I
Speaker 2: do make a bonehead of mistake and leave it unlocked,
Speaker 2: and I see that somebody just went through and looked
Speaker 2: at and the glove box and the center console just
Speaker 2: to see if there was anything, and they're just throwing
Speaker 2: stuff around and they leave it without taking anything because
Speaker 2: there's nothing of value, but they were in there. It
Speaker 2: is a feeling of it's an ick.
Speaker 1: It is.
Speaker 4: It is in fact in my car at the time,
Speaker 4: I had my favorite hoodie in there, and it was
Speaker 4: it was a plain white hoodie, but it was my
Speaker 4: favorite and my man put it on and ran off
Speaker 4: with it. Wow, I'm like, dude, and it's a hoodie.
Speaker 4: It's a ten dollars hoodie. It's no big deal, but
Speaker 4: it's still it's mine, dude. And so when I see
Speaker 4: images like what you were just talking about, I'm thinking
Speaker 4: of the folks. Maybe there's some folks that worked in
Speaker 4: an apple store. It doesn't have to be someone trying
Speaker 4: to feed their family. Maybe it's a college kid that's
Speaker 4: trying to make a couple of bucks that it's like, hey,
Speaker 4: and I know these bigger companies always take care of
Speaker 4: their people in situations like this, They're not going to
Speaker 4: stop paying them. But on the same token, you know,
Speaker 4: this is still this is what I do. And for
Speaker 4: you to come in here in this blatant disregard, and
Speaker 4: I know law enforcement to some degree, they do what
Speaker 4: they can, and we've seen our own law enforcement get
Speaker 4: on top of the situation in the Highlands, which is outstanding,
Speaker 4: but there's only so much you can do at that
Speaker 4: point when you have that big of a mob that
Speaker 4: encounters and then you just they're more trained in it
Speaker 4: than I am.
Speaker 5: They know better what they're doing.
Speaker 2: And I don't think this is something that even needs
Speaker 2: to be said, but might as well say it. If
Speaker 2: you are someone that is claiming to be protesting for
Speaker 2: a real change that you're passionate about, what in the
Speaker 2: world would destroying businesses and stealing and vandalizing what would
Speaker 2: that do to as far as that's not gonna help
Speaker 2: anything at all, which is why I just assume that
Speaker 2: the most people who have their faces covered that are
Speaker 2: there just to it's just almost like their robots just
Speaker 2: there to destroy and steal. I mean, those are people
Speaker 2: that just take advantage of these kind of things happening,
Speaker 2: which if you are a city leader, you've got to
Speaker 2: keep it from getting to the level where you look
Speaker 2: like a vulnerable spot for somebody to come in and
Speaker 2: do this kind of stuff.
Speaker 1: I mean, it's something you've got to be mindful of.
Speaker 2: All right, we've got another update of traffic and weather
Speaker 2: coming your way right here right now. Also, you guys
Speaker 2: want to hear Kentucky fans upset about Vince Marrow. We've
Speaker 2: got some audio that I want to share with you
Speaker 2: guys from callers yesterday to KSR. Look, I get it.
Speaker 2: They didn't just lose their beloved assistant coach. He went
Speaker 2: to the rival, and as you could expect, they're not
Speaker 2: too happy about it. It is seven sixteen here at
Speaker 2: Kentucky and his Morning News with Nick Coffee on News
Speaker 2: Radio eight forty. Whas I would say, when it comes
Speaker 2: to the big, big stories in sports here locally Obviously,
Speaker 2: we've talked a lot about the College World Series and
Speaker 2: will continue to do that as we've got two programs
Speaker 2: from the state that are representing the Bluegrass State here
Speaker 2: in Omaha. But the news of Vince Merrow leaving his
Speaker 2: position at Kentucky as the associate head coach for Mark Stoops,
Speaker 2: being a very beloved assistant at Kentucky, a guy that
Speaker 2: didn't just play a big role in bringing talent to
Speaker 2: help Mark Stoops win at a level Kentucky had never
Speaker 2: won at consistently. I mean, it's not just that he
Speaker 2: was the hype man. He was a fan favorite. And
Speaker 2: he's not just leaving because he's trying to jump ship
Speaker 2: before things really implode in Lexington with Mark Stoops. He's
Speaker 2: leaving to go to the rival, and he's doing it
Speaker 2: in June when he's already turned down other jobs to
Speaker 2: go elsewhere. It seems so understandably so. Kentucky fans not
Speaker 2: not happy about this decision from uh from Marrow, and
Speaker 2: they were calling in yesterday to KSR to express their
Speaker 2: thoughts on Vince Marrow's decision.
Speaker 3: He went to Louisville, I would we get a chance
Speaker 3: to run it down his throat, run a red sideline.
Speaker 3: I don't care if we get a penalty, throw the el
Speaker 3: down in.
Speaker 6: His He is now the enemy.
Speaker 3: I don't wear red shirts.
Speaker 6: I won't even wear red underwear.
Speaker 3: Coach larow Man, I used to love and now I despise.
Speaker 3: You're a trader. You have to betrayed the UK UK fans.
Speaker 3: Vince Merrill, the dirty bird finger and the L's down
Speaker 3: shall now be the official Vince Marrow greeting. He did
Speaker 3: that to UK football, UK Athletics and now BBN don't
Speaker 3: go to the loser Bill down the road.
Speaker 2: So that's the second that's the second clip we have.
Speaker 2: So there's I've got two different clips we've played this
Speaker 2: morning of callers that have expressed just you know that
Speaker 2: they're upset about it, and I get it. If I
Speaker 2: was a Kentucky fan, I'm sure it would be it
Speaker 2: would be not surprising to see him leave, even though
Speaker 2: he's this beloved But the real story here is that
Speaker 2: he's going to Louisville, and it's a guy who probably
Speaker 2: would have had a job at Kentucky in some capacity
Speaker 2: for the rest of his life if he wanted it,
Speaker 2: regardless of what happens with Mark Stoops and he chose
Speaker 2: to go to Louisville, which will probably change a lot
Speaker 2: for him as far as how he's I mean, it
Speaker 2: sounds crazy because we're all adults here, right, it's just sports.
Speaker 2: It doesn't really impact our daily lives to a big extent,
Speaker 2: most of us at least. But in ten years there's
Speaker 2: now going to be a much different conversation about Vince
Speaker 2: Merrill's legacy at Kentucky than there would have been had
Speaker 2: had he stayed at Kentucky and he got let go
Speaker 2: with Stoops and everybody else. I mean, that probably wouldn't
Speaker 2: have happened. But yeah, the rivalry component here is why
Speaker 2: this is such a story.
Speaker 4: Say so, do you think that anger is more driven
Speaker 4: that if you had to put a picture of Vince
Speaker 4: Morrow up there in a picture of Louisville, would more
Speaker 4: of those fans you think point at Louisville as opposed
Speaker 4: to Vince Morrow.
Speaker 2: I think they're mad at Mark Stoops for the program
Speaker 2: being in the position to where he's trying to get
Speaker 2: out before it gets even worse. And that's really the
Speaker 2: ultimate takeaway is what this says about Kentucky's program currently.
Speaker 2: I mean, they're gonna have the opportunity, meaning Stoops in
Speaker 2: his current staff, to prove people wrong. But there's there's
Speaker 2: little to no momentum. In fact, there's no momentum. And
Speaker 2: there's always a chance they could surprise people and be better,
Speaker 2: but there really isn't a whole lot to point to.
Speaker 2: It would make you think that that's gonna happen. So
Speaker 2: I think Stoop's putting the program in this spot and
Speaker 2: and and I think once there's more, and I don't
Speaker 2: know the full details, but it sounds as if Stoops
Speaker 2: started to kind of shift more of the top assistant
Speaker 2: duties to Eddie Grahan, not as much Vince Marrow. And
Speaker 2: I guess Vince Marrow was by that. And I think
Speaker 2: that that's another thing is fans are thinking, why in
Speaker 2: the world would you prop up Eddie grant to to
Speaker 2: shoot down the beloved Vince Marrow. I mean, Merrow is
Speaker 2: a fan favorite, and that you know the fact that
Speaker 2: he's going to the rival, I mean, I get.
Speaker 5: It if he goes to Tennessee. Are we hearing all
Speaker 5: these comments?
Speaker 2: I don't think it all to the extent, really, I don't.
Speaker 2: I mean, it would still be there'd be the rivalry component,
Speaker 2: but it's just different around here, especially in Louisville. So
Speaker 2: rivalries are what makes sports great. And this is certainly
Speaker 2: one story that'll probably be remembered for a long time.
Speaker 2: A top assistant, beloved assistant leaving to go coach at
Speaker 2: the rival school doesn't doesn't happen very often. All right,
Speaker 2: we've got trafficking weather coming your way in just a moment.
Speaker 2: Also another update of sports with Scott Fitzgerald right here
Speaker 2: on news radio eight forty whas it is seven thirty
Speaker 2: five here Kentucky had his morning news with Nick Coffee
Speaker 2: a news Radio eight forty whas.
Speaker 1: What do we have here?
Speaker 5: What kind of call? Oh man, that isn't awesome? Video?
Speaker 1: Dude, I'll remixed with some Windows prompts. Wind those I
Speaker 1: thought I got here.
Speaker 5: I thought I got rid of those on this You.
Speaker 2: Can't get rid of them, dud. And I don't mean
Speaker 2: you specifically. You know, there's all kinds of different prompts.
Speaker 2: Windows will alert you about as far as an update
Speaker 2: or something being available. And when you think you have
Speaker 2: gone throughout the entire system to disable any type of prompt, yeah,
Speaker 2: there'll be one that pops up that you didn't even
Speaker 2: know was there.
Speaker 5: Let me ask you this, do you guys say? And
Speaker 5: I asked and John I asked Nick about this yesterday.
Speaker 4: When you go to certain websites, A lot of a
Speaker 4: lot of the college athletic.
Speaker 5: Websites, I go to use them still like when you.
Speaker 4: Have au no, yeah, well auto plays too, but when
Speaker 4: you have to click no, I'm okay with cookies.
Speaker 1: That's yeah, that's I thought. That's most websites now.
Speaker 5: Well, and no, I don't want your newsletter.
Speaker 2: I mean, there's clearly a real you'll benefit to having
Speaker 2: somebody's email address to where your daily content ends up
Speaker 2: in their inbox, to where they don't have to just
Speaker 2: randomly stumble upon your your dot com. But those that
Speaker 2: I have given my email address to for signing up
Speaker 2: for something whatever it may be, I don't I never
Speaker 2: even look at it.
Speaker 3: Now.
Speaker 5: I've blocked a lot of them. I know they just
Speaker 5: go straight to my delete box.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean it doesn't do it to me as
Speaker 2: someone who used to run a website.
Speaker 1: And that's that.
Speaker 2: You know, you've got to monetize in any way you can,
Speaker 2: and those there's new challenges every day as far as
Speaker 2: trying to monetize on the World Wide Web, and you've
Speaker 2: got to do whatever you can. But you also don't
Speaker 2: want to become annoying to your readers that are on
Speaker 2: your website, because then they'll just because the reality is this,
Speaker 2: there are very few platforms really in any realm that
Speaker 2: is going to give you information that you can't get
Speaker 2: elsewhere or get for yourself.
Speaker 1: So you've got to give them a good experience.
Speaker 2: And if it's nothing but auto play ads and you know,
Speaker 2: sign up for this, sign up for that, except the
Speaker 2: cookies and the non cookie jar or whatever I mean,
Speaker 2: it becomes annoying. And if you just know, if in
Speaker 2: your mind you know you're getting that at a certain website,
Speaker 2: don't be surprised that potentially people just no longer make
Speaker 2: that a part of their Internet experience.
Speaker 5: You know who's the worst that for me is F one.
Speaker 4: F one is notorious because not only do you have
Speaker 4: to cook, you have to click through the cookies. But
Speaker 4: then if you tell them no, I don't want your
Speaker 4: first newsletter, then they bounce back and say, oh well
Speaker 4: how about this?
Speaker 5: Stop it.
Speaker 2: They they they've been getting nothing but universal praise as
Speaker 2: far as just how they've exploded and become a big
Speaker 2: rising sport here in America.
Speaker 1: Maybe this is the first slip up.
Speaker 5: I'm glad you mentioned.
Speaker 2: Don't annoy us on don't annoy us with your website.
Speaker 2: You're doing great. The Netflix series became a big It
Speaker 2: was a big factor in people just realizing what F
Speaker 2: one was and is.
Speaker 1: But yeah, there's nothing worse than an annoying website.
Speaker 4: Nice segue, because I'm going to tell you why F
Speaker 4: one put the gauntlet down to one of the other
Speaker 4: racing circuits too, coming up. They did that yesterday, So
Speaker 4: I was going to talk about it in sports. But
Speaker 4: you're right, And so it's a fine line. And Nick,
Speaker 4: you know more than anybody. You know, you head your website.
Speaker 1: I tell people that all the time.
Speaker 2: I don't everyone right, you just stop there, John.
Speaker 4: And you know the challenges of trying to have a
Speaker 4: website because if you're going to put that much work
Speaker 4: into it, you want to monetize it. Let's say, you know,
Speaker 4: I'm a big fan of capitalism. I always like to
Speaker 4: make money. And if you're going to do that, and
Speaker 4: I can probably attest there's probably a lot of internet
Speaker 4: marketers out there right now that sympathize what you're talking about.
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, and you you end up running into challenges
Speaker 2: that you can't foresee coming and you have no control over.
Speaker 2: For example, and for those that are on my background,
Speaker 2: before I got a chance to work in radio full time,
Speaker 2: I created a website called the Cardinal connect dot com,
Speaker 2: just blogging covering Louisville.
Speaker 1: Did it for a long time.
Speaker 2: Never expected it to be something that actually did generate revenue,
Speaker 2: and never expected it to be something that helped me
Speaker 2: get my foot in the door to be doing something
Speaker 2: like this, So you know, you're constantly seeing how the
Speaker 2: industry is evolving and for what really was was a
Speaker 2: big deal for me.
Speaker 1: In a good way.
Speaker 2: And then when it was there was a change to
Speaker 2: it that I didn't foresee coming that really made it
Speaker 2: more difficult for me. As far as just it being
Speaker 2: still a profitable thing to where it was a little
Speaker 2: I had, I had a staff at people that I paid,
Speaker 2: was that I created an app to where anything that
Speaker 2: was within the website you have a native app on
Speaker 2: your phone and for a while you were able to
Speaker 2: implement certain ads and because you know, traffic was mostly
Speaker 2: coming from the app, I mean it was I was
Speaker 2: getting some pretty good revenue. And then they made it
Speaker 2: to where you could only use certain type of ads
Speaker 2: within a native app, and that that completely changed the
Speaker 2: game for me in a bad way.
Speaker 1: So uh, it's.
Speaker 2: The biggest challenge is that it's always changing and you
Speaker 2: got to be able to keep up or you'll get
Speaker 2: left behind.
Speaker 1: So yeah, the uh.
Speaker 2: And now everything's device driven too. Yeah, and you have
Speaker 2: way more better You've wait way more upside as far
Speaker 2: as revenue, at least you did when I was back
Speaker 2: in the game on a on a computer. But now
Speaker 2: it's all mobile, and that's a world I never never got,
Speaker 2: never got, never got up to speed on.
Speaker 1: Let's put it that way.
Speaker 2: All right, We've got another update of trafficking weather coming
Speaker 2: your way. Father's Day's coming up this weekend. For those
Speaker 2: procrastinators out there, I'm gonna tell you guys coming up
Speaker 2: here shortly, things that you need to tell your dad to.
Speaker 1: Make him feel good. On Sunday.
Speaker 2: Seven Here on a Wednesday, Kentucky and His Morning News
Speaker 2: with Nick Coffee on News Radio eight forty Whas we
Speaker 2: are just just a few days away from Father's Day
Speaker 2: and I'm looking forward to it as a father.
Speaker 1: We talked earlier this week about our plans.
Speaker 2: I think Scott plans to lay low, right, Yeah, spend
Speaker 2: some time with the families, with the kids. I'm gonna
Speaker 2: I'm gonna make my way to Churchill Downs and have
Speaker 2: a day, hopefully get my dad out there as well.
Speaker 2: And obviously we just want the newest dad of us
Speaker 2: to get some sleep, get some rest, and hopefully.
Speaker 6: Won't but I'm going over to my my parents.
Speaker 2: Yeah, happened at some point though I didn't want to
Speaker 2: tell you, but there's no way you're getting any rest now.
Speaker 1: Father's Day.
Speaker 5: You'll find yourself dozing off while the parents are talking.
Speaker 5: That's nice to do.
Speaker 2: That now, when you doze off at this point. And
Speaker 2: for those who don't know, I'm sure everybody's well aware
Speaker 2: now that John is a brand new dad. His lovely
Speaker 2: daughter Daisy just two months old now right just today today,
Speaker 2: Happy two months Daisy. She's she's been keeping John up
Speaker 2: at times just because that's what babies do. And and
Speaker 2: you know, if you have kids, then actually you don't
Speaker 2: even have to have kids to probably be able to
Speaker 2: understand that it's a big adjustment. And when you're a
Speaker 2: newborn baby, you got to sleep schedule and you know,
Speaker 2: you need to eat and all that kind of stuff.
Speaker 2: So when you do get chances to doze off, do
Speaker 2: you feel like it's valuable or is it just a
Speaker 2: constant cycle of I'll squeeze and sleep when I can.
Speaker 2: But man, this sucks because I'm I am a pessimist
Speaker 2: when it comes to certain things, and.
Speaker 1: I feel like I would just I would.
Speaker 2: It would be hard for me to look at a
Speaker 2: quick twenty minute nap in my car as a wind
Speaker 2: for me, if that makes sense.
Speaker 1: But if you're getting sleep, you're getting sleep, regardless of
Speaker 1: how it is.
Speaker 5: Yeah, I don't.
Speaker 6: I don't know how often you know the quick fifteen
Speaker 6: to twenty minute naps are actually quality. I know they
Speaker 6: say that a twenty minute power nap can really boost
Speaker 6: it the rest of your day. Maybe that's for people
Speaker 6: who get adequate sleep, though I would say, yeah, But
Speaker 6: if I'm able on the rare occasion when my wife's
Speaker 6: able to let me nap for an hour hour and
Speaker 6: a half, even if I can get to two hours,
Speaker 6: which it's very rare, that's when I feel a little
Speaker 6: more rejuvenated. But again, those those occasions are hard to
Speaker 6: come by.
Speaker 2: Yeah, Well, I know at some point you will be
Speaker 2: still getting up really early, because that's what this that's
Speaker 2: what this gig is. But I'm sure when you have
Speaker 2: a little bit more balance and there's more consistent at this.
Speaker 6: Point, when I can get back to just getting a
Speaker 6: consistent six hours of sleep from you know, nine pm
Speaker 6: to three am, whenever, it may be like that feels
Speaker 6: like it'll be a win.
Speaker 1: Yep, it'll it'll be there. You'll be there soon.
Speaker 4: I was trying to remember the time when when I
Speaker 4: finally got to where you're talking about, Johnn And I
Speaker 4: don't remember the exact moment with either of my kids,
Speaker 4: but I do remember when it happened, and it is
Speaker 4: life changing. I mean, it gets there, but it's life
Speaker 4: changing and it's it's a great feeling.
Speaker 6: But I also don't want to wish away And I've
Speaker 6: heard you say this, Scott and and you two Nick, like,
Speaker 6: I don't want to wish away these these moments of
Speaker 6: Daisy being as young as she is right now.
Speaker 2: Yeah, take it in and live in the moment, as
Speaker 2: hard as that is to do at times. But it
Speaker 2: is wild how we all are in different uh, I
Speaker 2: guess phases of fatherhood. You know, Scott, you were telling
Speaker 2: me the other day. And I know it's been it's
Speaker 2: been a while since this was the case, but whenever
Speaker 2: your oldest was able to babysit, you guys didn't have
Speaker 2: to pay a babysitter.
Speaker 1: You had one.
Speaker 2: And for me, like I'm I'm legitimately excited as can
Speaker 2: be that when my son starts kindergarten, we will no
Speaker 2: longer pay for daycare. And that's a big deal to
Speaker 2: us that no longer have that expense. And my man
Speaker 2: John's just looking for some consistency with sleeves. So again,
Speaker 2: we're all in different different phases here.
Speaker 4: I remember that I totally forgot about that, now that
