1
00:00:03.000 --> 00:00:07.200
<v Speaker 1>It's time for coffee and company, fueled by Thornton's on

2
00:00:07.320 --> 00:00:13.439
<v Speaker 1>Sports Talk seven nine day. Now, here's Nick coffee.

3
00:00:16.000 --> 00:00:18.199
<v Speaker 2>All right, let's get it started here hour number two

4
00:00:18.239 --> 00:00:20.559
<v Speaker 2>on a Friday afternoon, as we get you set for

5
00:00:20.600 --> 00:00:23.160
<v Speaker 2>the weekend. I know I say this all the time,

6
00:00:23.239 --> 00:00:25.920
<v Speaker 2>it really actually feels as we speak like the weekend

7
00:00:25.960 --> 00:00:30.399
<v Speaker 2>has started, because the vibes here in Louisville are solid,

8
00:00:30.519 --> 00:00:32.439
<v Speaker 2>in fact, better than solid. We got Bourbon to beyond.

9
00:00:32.479 --> 00:00:35.840
<v Speaker 2>Going on day two, Louisville football will be in action

10
00:00:35.920 --> 00:00:38.759
<v Speaker 2>tomorrow in a little bit under twenty four hours, and

11
00:00:38.799 --> 00:00:42.200
<v Speaker 2>it's their first test. I still have yet to get

12
00:00:42.240 --> 00:00:45.920
<v Speaker 2>a real feel for how I put it this way,

13
00:00:46.039 --> 00:00:48.799
<v Speaker 2>I've yet to really be able to fully put into

14
00:00:48.799 --> 00:00:52.079
<v Speaker 2>words how I would describe, if I could, what this

15
00:00:52.320 --> 00:00:54.920
<v Speaker 2>game feels like, because I respect Georgia Tech a lot,

16
00:00:56.000 --> 00:00:58.600
<v Speaker 2>but I also feel like Louisville winning. That's what you're

17
00:00:58.640 --> 00:01:00.479
<v Speaker 2>supposed to do, which technically it is like that's not

18
00:01:00.520 --> 00:01:04.200
<v Speaker 2>the case. But I realized if they play well in Louisville,

19
00:01:04.719 --> 00:01:07.640
<v Speaker 2>you know, has has some miscues and maybe they come

20
00:01:07.640 --> 00:01:09.640
<v Speaker 2>out flat off of bye week or something like that.

21
00:01:09.760 --> 00:01:11.200
<v Speaker 2>I mean, George Tack will make you pay for it.

22
00:01:12.120 --> 00:01:14.480
<v Speaker 2>And some people have brought up last year's game because

23
00:01:14.640 --> 00:01:17.079
<v Speaker 2>Wild Game Louisville got off to a really bad start,

24
00:01:17.239 --> 00:01:20.719
<v Speaker 2>and it is crazy how that season. I mean, it

25
00:01:20.719 --> 00:01:22.760
<v Speaker 2>didn't end well with three straight losses, but you still

26
00:01:22.799 --> 00:01:25.959
<v Speaker 2>had a ten win season. And you know, anybody who

27
00:01:26.000 --> 00:01:28.280
<v Speaker 2>claims last year was not a very successful year one

28
00:01:28.280 --> 00:01:31.120
<v Speaker 2>for brom is to be frank with you as an idiot.

29
00:01:31.560 --> 00:01:33.599
<v Speaker 2>I shouldn't name call, but you know I'm in that

30
00:01:33.680 --> 00:01:35.640
<v Speaker 2>kind of mood today, and I apologize. I shouldn't say

31
00:01:35.640 --> 00:01:37.159
<v Speaker 2>you're an idiot. I guess you're in titled to your opinion.

32
00:01:37.159 --> 00:01:40.519
<v Speaker 2>I would just tell you that I disagree. But in

33
00:01:40.519 --> 00:01:43.560
<v Speaker 2>that first half I was in Atlanta and I left

34
00:01:43.719 --> 00:01:47.480
<v Speaker 2>after a very unsuccessful vibe check. I got into the

35
00:01:47.519 --> 00:01:49.719
<v Speaker 2>dome and left early because because once it started to

36
00:01:49.760 --> 00:01:51.200
<v Speaker 2>look bad, I'm like, I got to get out of here.

37
00:01:51.519 --> 00:01:53.319
<v Speaker 2>I can't. I can't be around people in public if

38
00:01:53.359 --> 00:01:55.159
<v Speaker 2>Jeff Brohm starts to look like he may not be

39
00:01:55.200 --> 00:01:56.719
<v Speaker 2>the guy here, which it would have been an overreaction

40
00:01:57.079 --> 00:02:01.040
<v Speaker 2>if he did lose that game. But I remember people

41
00:02:01.400 --> 00:02:04.480
<v Speaker 2>freaking out, panicking because Georgia Tech got off to a

42
00:02:04.480 --> 00:02:08.039
<v Speaker 2>phenomenal start and Louisville, you know, came back and honestly,

43
00:02:08.039 --> 00:02:11.439
<v Speaker 2>they really it wasn't like they put up twenty one

44
00:02:11.560 --> 00:02:15.840
<v Speaker 2>unanswered in five ten minutes, but they slowly but surely

45
00:02:15.960 --> 00:02:18.840
<v Speaker 2>dominated that second half and took over and really, you know,

46
00:02:19.039 --> 00:02:21.560
<v Speaker 2>from then on had a really good season. So I

47
00:02:21.599 --> 00:02:23.520
<v Speaker 2>don't think about that game last year at all. Haines

48
00:02:23.599 --> 00:02:27.199
<v Speaker 2>King's a different guy now, he's got more confidence in himself.

49
00:02:27.199 --> 00:02:30.360
<v Speaker 2>He's proven. And we didn't know last year that Georgia

50
00:02:30.360 --> 00:02:32.159
<v Speaker 2>Tech was going to have a freshman receiver who would

51
00:02:32.159 --> 00:02:33.759
<v Speaker 2>go on to be one of the best receivers in

52
00:02:33.759 --> 00:02:37.240
<v Speaker 2>the country as a freshman meaning poor freshman, not overall.

53
00:02:37.319 --> 00:02:41.000
<v Speaker 2>But yeah, I respect Georgie Tech a lot, and I

54
00:02:41.080 --> 00:02:43.400
<v Speaker 2>know that they're capable of beating LOUIELL because honestly, anybody's

55
00:02:43.439 --> 00:02:45.080
<v Speaker 2>capable of beating LOUISLL if they don't play well. I

56
00:02:45.080 --> 00:02:47.319
<v Speaker 2>mean that's I mean, Louisll's not a team that can

57
00:02:47.319 --> 00:02:50.199
<v Speaker 2>come out and honestly, most it's not even about Louisville.

58
00:02:50.199 --> 00:02:53.240
<v Speaker 2>Most teams, in my opinion, especially now with the portal

59
00:02:53.719 --> 00:02:56.479
<v Speaker 2>meaning where you got dudes, who you get a roster.

60
00:02:57.120 --> 00:03:00.719
<v Speaker 2>Let's just mean, I'm sure nobody has crun this data

61
00:03:00.759 --> 00:03:03.199
<v Speaker 2>and done the research to look at it. But in

62
00:03:03.240 --> 00:03:08.199
<v Speaker 2>a Power for conference, wouldn't you say, John, in Power

63
00:03:08.240 --> 00:03:12.360
<v Speaker 2>for Football, if you just do a random check in

64
00:03:12.879 --> 00:03:16.080
<v Speaker 2>during any moment of a game other than when it's

65
00:03:16.080 --> 00:03:19.400
<v Speaker 2>a blowout or something, that there'd be more guys on

66
00:03:19.479 --> 00:03:24.400
<v Speaker 2>the field for both teams that were portal guys than not. Yes,

67
00:03:24.520 --> 00:03:26.960
<v Speaker 2>especially more guys that didn't start their career where they're

68
00:03:26.960 --> 00:03:27.280
<v Speaker 2>playing now.

69
00:03:27.400 --> 00:03:30.080
<v Speaker 3>Yes, especially if you're not including like the Georgia's in

70
00:03:30.120 --> 00:03:32.520
<v Speaker 3>the Alabama's and you do have some examples of the

71
00:03:32.520 --> 00:03:35.759
<v Speaker 3>transfer portal players with those teams, but with the mid

72
00:03:35.800 --> 00:03:39.000
<v Speaker 3>tier to lower tier Power for programs, you're definitely seeing

73
00:03:39.319 --> 00:03:41.599
<v Speaker 3>a lot of I would say maybe even majority of

74
00:03:41.639 --> 00:03:44.000
<v Speaker 3>your starting guys are portal players.

75
00:03:44.280 --> 00:03:44.439
<v Speaker 4>Yeah.

76
00:03:44.479 --> 00:03:46.680
<v Speaker 2>I mean in Louisville. I mean, let's look at Louisville

77
00:03:46.680 --> 00:03:48.759
<v Speaker 2>guys that we feel really good about. I mean, some

78
00:03:48.800 --> 00:03:50.400
<v Speaker 2>of the guys have been here for like, for example,

79
00:03:50.479 --> 00:03:53.080
<v Speaker 2>Quincy Raley's one of your top players. He's a portal guy,

80
00:03:53.120 --> 00:03:55.960
<v Speaker 2>but he's been here for three years now. But Ashton Julotti,

81
00:03:56.120 --> 00:03:59.000
<v Speaker 2>I mean he's and we got some freshmen on Louis's

82
00:03:59.000 --> 00:04:00.560
<v Speaker 2>team that I think are really that have a lot

83
00:04:00.560 --> 00:04:03.360
<v Speaker 2>of potential, like Isaah Isaac Brown. But you know, Jelati

84
00:04:03.439 --> 00:04:05.039
<v Speaker 2>is a guy who was not a big recruit and

85
00:04:05.080 --> 00:04:07.840
<v Speaker 2>came to Louisville, became an All American caliber player and

86
00:04:07.879 --> 00:04:10.039
<v Speaker 2>decided to stay here. I mean that's rare this day

87
00:04:10.080 --> 00:04:13.000
<v Speaker 2>and age. So I cannot at this point. I'm just

88
00:04:13.000 --> 00:04:15.120
<v Speaker 2>ready for the game to start. I'm anxious to see

89
00:04:15.120 --> 00:04:18.759
<v Speaker 2>where Louisville stands. I'm well aware that a close loss

90
00:04:19.000 --> 00:04:21.560
<v Speaker 2>or a close win wouldn't mean we need to worry.

91
00:04:21.600 --> 00:04:26.720
<v Speaker 2>A loss wouldn't really mean we need to worry. However,

92
00:04:27.000 --> 00:04:30.120
<v Speaker 2>Like realistically speaking, if you can lose to Georgia Tech

93
00:04:30.160 --> 00:04:31.439
<v Speaker 2>at home, you got to keep in mind. You know,

94
00:04:31.439 --> 00:04:33.600
<v Speaker 2>you got Miami at home. Miami's probably a better team.

95
00:04:33.639 --> 00:04:37.000
<v Speaker 2>I mean I think they are right now. So I

96
00:04:37.000 --> 00:04:38.839
<v Speaker 2>don't want to get into the schedule conversation. But this

97
00:04:38.879 --> 00:04:40.600
<v Speaker 2>is a big game tomorrow. I mean, for a variety

98
00:04:40.600 --> 00:04:41.959
<v Speaker 2>of reasons, I don't want to act like it would

99
00:04:41.959 --> 00:04:43.519
<v Speaker 2>be a monumental thing that we're all going to tell

100
00:04:43.519 --> 00:04:47.879
<v Speaker 2>our grandchildren about fifty years from now. But I'm pumped, man,

101
00:04:47.879 --> 00:04:52.560
<v Speaker 2>I really am. And you know, I think the fact

102
00:04:52.560 --> 00:04:57.720
<v Speaker 2>that my morale and my energy. You know, it's positive,

103
00:04:58.560 --> 00:05:01.360
<v Speaker 2>is more impressive than people because I've had a hell

104
00:05:01.360 --> 00:05:02.920
<v Speaker 2>of the last twenty four hours. I don't want to

105
00:05:02.959 --> 00:05:05.000
<v Speaker 2>get back into all the specifics of it and reshare

106
00:05:05.000 --> 00:05:08.399
<v Speaker 2>the story, but I'm without a vehicle after I gave

107
00:05:08.600 --> 00:05:11.720
<v Speaker 2>Auto's owned business to replace my battery, and I now

108
00:05:11.720 --> 00:05:13.560
<v Speaker 2>fear that they may have damaged my vehicle to where

109
00:05:13.560 --> 00:05:14.680
<v Speaker 2>I don't even know if I'm going to be able

110
00:05:14.680 --> 00:05:17.720
<v Speaker 2>to drive it again. And that's that's that's not good,

111
00:05:17.759 --> 00:05:20.680
<v Speaker 2>that's scary. That's not only like that sucks, but like

112
00:05:20.680 --> 00:05:21.920
<v Speaker 2>I got to figure out what do I do? Do

113
00:05:22.000 --> 00:05:25.680
<v Speaker 2>I get a lawyer? Like what happens? So you know,

114
00:05:26.839 --> 00:05:30.439
<v Speaker 2>I mean yeah again, like John, I'm like Jordan with

115
00:05:30.439 --> 00:05:32.360
<v Speaker 2>the flu in the playoffs, right, Like a lot of

116
00:05:32.360 --> 00:05:34.519
<v Speaker 2>adversity come in my way, A lot of a lot

117
00:05:34.560 --> 00:05:37.399
<v Speaker 2>of stuff going on, but I just I just deal

118
00:05:37.439 --> 00:05:38.519
<v Speaker 2>with it because that's what I do.

119
00:05:38.680 --> 00:05:41.319
<v Speaker 5>And you've heard a lot of episodes with this Volkswagen.

120
00:05:41.360 --> 00:05:44.680
<v Speaker 2>I feel like, well no, so now now now, now,

121
00:05:44.879 --> 00:05:46.879
<v Speaker 2>now you're striking a nerve a little bit here, okay,

122
00:05:47.120 --> 00:05:51.319
<v Speaker 2>because they blame that they were any because they didn't

123
00:05:51.319 --> 00:05:54.399
<v Speaker 2>know what they were doing before they realized that they

124
00:05:54.800 --> 00:05:57.680
<v Speaker 2>I mean them not knowing how to put a battery

125
00:05:57.680 --> 00:06:00.920
<v Speaker 2>in a car, them putting a battery in a vehicle backwards,

126
00:06:01.040 --> 00:06:03.879
<v Speaker 2>and not realizing that they had done that for three hours,

127
00:06:04.040 --> 00:06:06.040
<v Speaker 2>taking it out, putting it back in every time, not

128
00:06:06.079 --> 00:06:08.879
<v Speaker 2>realizing that it was backwards. That's not a Volkswagon issue.

129
00:06:08.879 --> 00:06:10.560
<v Speaker 2>And I know you didn't say that it was. But

130
00:06:11.120 --> 00:06:14.279
<v Speaker 2>before they figured out that, for three hours, all they

131
00:06:14.279 --> 00:06:16.759
<v Speaker 2>would do was bitch and moan. Well, that's why, why

132
00:06:16.800 --> 00:06:20.920
<v Speaker 2>Hey Volkswagens, Why hey Volkswagons. And I'm like, that is

133
00:06:20.959 --> 00:06:23.759
<v Speaker 2>why I carried the battery to the counter and asked you, Hey,

134
00:06:23.839 --> 00:06:26.959
<v Speaker 2>I'm gonna buy this battery. Can you replace it for me.

135
00:06:27.920 --> 00:06:29.639
<v Speaker 2>It wasn't like, hey, I'm not gonna buy it. I'm

136
00:06:29.639 --> 00:06:31.240
<v Speaker 2>gonna buy it regardless, and if you can't do it,

137
00:06:31.240 --> 00:06:33.240
<v Speaker 2>I'm gonna take it to my stepfather, who's a mechanic

138
00:06:33.480 --> 00:06:35.360
<v Speaker 2>who can do it for me. But I just wanted

139
00:06:35.399 --> 00:06:36.639
<v Speaker 2>to know because it'd be convenient if you can just

140
00:06:36.680 --> 00:06:37.879
<v Speaker 2>go do it for me, because I get it. You know,

141
00:06:37.920 --> 00:06:39.839
<v Speaker 2>if you take my battery now, I get a cheaper battery.

142
00:06:40.040 --> 00:06:41.600
<v Speaker 2>And they checked it in their system and they were

143
00:06:41.600 --> 00:06:44.279
<v Speaker 2>able to replace it. They said, but they put it

144
00:06:44.319 --> 00:06:46.759
<v Speaker 2>on backwards for three hours and now they know. Now

145
00:06:46.800 --> 00:06:49.040
<v Speaker 2>they're not bringing up BW. Now they're not telling me

146
00:06:49.199 --> 00:06:51.120
<v Speaker 2>it's because because you get it doesn't matter the car

147
00:06:51.199 --> 00:06:52.759
<v Speaker 2>you can You don't know what I mean, I'm not

148
00:06:52.800 --> 00:06:55.639
<v Speaker 2>even somebody one of their associates today that I talked

149
00:06:55.680 --> 00:06:57.680
<v Speaker 2>to told me, John, you could have never opened a

150
00:06:57.680 --> 00:06:59.680
<v Speaker 2>hood and probably figured out which way a battery goes in.

151
00:07:00.319 --> 00:07:03.040
<v Speaker 2>I mean, that's the truth of it. Now, why do

152
00:07:03.079 --> 00:07:04.519
<v Speaker 2>you think I've had problems with my Volkswagen.

153
00:07:04.600 --> 00:07:07.800
<v Speaker 3>I feel like maybe this wasn't a Volkswagen specific issue.

154
00:07:07.839 --> 00:07:09.639
<v Speaker 3>But I remember a story I guess it was from

155
00:07:09.680 --> 00:07:11.680
<v Speaker 3>last year when you were on the side of I

156
00:07:11.720 --> 00:07:12.600
<v Speaker 3>sixty five with.

157
00:07:12.759 --> 00:07:15.079
<v Speaker 2>Oh yeah, right, yeah yeah. I mean that was just

158
00:07:15.079 --> 00:07:18.160
<v Speaker 2>I ran over something. I mean, I ran over something

159
00:07:18.160 --> 00:07:20.560
<v Speaker 2>that got stuck under my vehicle and I had to

160
00:07:20.600 --> 00:07:23.319
<v Speaker 2>call my stepdad to come and like pry it out.

161
00:07:23.399 --> 00:07:28.399
<v Speaker 2>It was it was not ideal. And look, here's what's crazy.

162
00:07:28.560 --> 00:07:32.160
<v Speaker 2>I know that Volkswagens are a pain in the ass

163
00:07:32.199 --> 00:07:35.519
<v Speaker 2>for mechanics. There are many successful mechanics that will not

164
00:07:35.600 --> 00:07:38.759
<v Speaker 2>work on your Volkswagen because they're just so different. I

165
00:07:38.800 --> 00:07:41.000
<v Speaker 2>love the car. I am now going to keep it

166
00:07:41.040 --> 00:07:44.560
<v Speaker 2>in mind whenever I you know, whenever I ever get

167
00:07:44.560 --> 00:07:46.199
<v Speaker 2>a new vehicle. If I do, I might have to

168
00:07:46.199 --> 00:07:48.319
<v Speaker 2>get one soon. Like I'm going to keep in mind

169
00:07:48.319 --> 00:07:50.160
<v Speaker 2>like that. That is something that it's just different. Like

170
00:07:50.160 --> 00:07:52.879
<v Speaker 2>a lot of places will look at your car and say, yeah,

171
00:07:53.040 --> 00:07:55.160
<v Speaker 2>I do that. It's pretty easy, but for your car

172
00:07:55.199 --> 00:07:57.160
<v Speaker 2>it won't be. Or I'm not going to do it

173
00:07:57.160 --> 00:07:59.240
<v Speaker 2>because it's a pain in the ass. So but like

174
00:07:59.319 --> 00:08:02.399
<v Speaker 2>the vehicle, I love my car and the Dubbs loyalist,

175
00:08:02.639 --> 00:08:05.279
<v Speaker 2>do you think or no, No, I mean, like I've

176
00:08:05.319 --> 00:08:08.879
<v Speaker 2>never had one before. But we got this car in

177
00:08:08.920 --> 00:08:11.959
<v Speaker 2>twenty twenty the end of twenty twenty, I think it

178
00:08:12.040 --> 00:08:14.199
<v Speaker 2>was maybe early twenty twenty one. It's a twenty nineteen.

179
00:08:14.560 --> 00:08:17.519
<v Speaker 2>It was gently used and it's the perfect size suv.

180
00:08:17.600 --> 00:08:20.240
<v Speaker 2>It's a third row but it's not too bulky. It's

181
00:08:20.360 --> 00:08:23.399
<v Speaker 2>you know, it's it's four cylinder, two well drive, turbo

182
00:08:23.639 --> 00:08:25.600
<v Speaker 2>so I can. It's got a little get up in it.

183
00:08:25.600 --> 00:08:29.360
<v Speaker 2>It's decent on gas milage. I love my car, and

184
00:08:29.399 --> 00:08:31.720
<v Speaker 2>now they may have ruined it, Like I hope that's

185
00:08:31.720 --> 00:08:33.720
<v Speaker 2>not the case. But what I haven't shared with you

186
00:08:33.799 --> 00:08:36.480
<v Speaker 2>is I called the dealership to just get there, like

187
00:08:36.519 --> 00:08:39.240
<v Speaker 2>I wanted to tell them my side of the story, like, hey,

188
00:08:39.279 --> 00:08:41.320
<v Speaker 2>I don't know what they told you, but they're sending

189
00:08:41.320 --> 00:08:45.639
<v Speaker 2>my car to you, and I'm gonna tell you what

190
00:08:45.759 --> 00:08:47.480
<v Speaker 2>is now an issue that wasn't an issue before I

191
00:08:47.480 --> 00:08:48.600
<v Speaker 2>gave it to them, because I don't know what they

192
00:08:48.600 --> 00:08:50.480
<v Speaker 2>told you, because they're gonna probably say, hey, he just

193
00:08:50.519 --> 00:08:52.840
<v Speaker 2>needs this fixed time on because they're gonna put the bill.

194
00:08:52.919 --> 00:08:55.159
<v Speaker 2>They are, and they did say that, but I feel

195
00:08:55.240 --> 00:08:57.559
<v Speaker 2>like it's it's it's lame for me to act like

196
00:08:57.600 --> 00:09:01.840
<v Speaker 2>I'm oh, thank you so much for inconvenient me and

197
00:09:02.159 --> 00:09:05.240
<v Speaker 2>making my life a living hell for roughly twenty four

198
00:09:05.240 --> 00:09:07.960
<v Speaker 2>hours and you still being out ahead to where I've

199
00:09:07.960 --> 00:09:10.720
<v Speaker 2>given you money in business and you've inconvenienced me kept

200
00:09:10.759 --> 00:09:13.519
<v Speaker 2>me away again. Here I am playing victim, and that's

201
00:09:13.519 --> 00:09:16.360
<v Speaker 2>what makes this Like, my wife is so fired up, John,

202
00:09:16.720 --> 00:09:18.159
<v Speaker 2>so fired up, it's kind of turning me on, to

203
00:09:18.159 --> 00:09:20.240
<v Speaker 2>be honest with you, She is fired up, and she's like,

204
00:09:20.240 --> 00:09:22.200
<v Speaker 2>you need to get mad. You need to call corporate,

205
00:09:22.320 --> 00:09:24.720
<v Speaker 2>you need to tell them we're talking to the Better

206
00:09:24.759 --> 00:09:28.759
<v Speaker 2>Business Bureau. And I'm like, baby, that's not me she's like,

207
00:09:29.720 --> 00:09:32.279
<v Speaker 2>it doesn't like she's like, it doesn't matter if it's you.

208
00:09:32.559 --> 00:09:34.679
<v Speaker 2>This is what's right. And I said that to my

209
00:09:34.799 --> 00:09:38.240
<v Speaker 2>core is not my personality. And she said, you're just

210
00:09:38.279 --> 00:09:41.120
<v Speaker 2>scared of people saying you're a male Karen. And I said,

211
00:09:41.159 --> 00:09:43.559
<v Speaker 2>you know what, honey, you might be right, but are

212
00:09:43.600 --> 00:09:48.039
<v Speaker 2>you a Karen if you're upset for legitimate reasons? Like

213
00:09:48.120 --> 00:09:50.440
<v Speaker 2>I will say this. I don't know if people are

214
00:09:50.480 --> 00:09:51.919
<v Speaker 2>trying to gasp me up or whatnot. But when I

215
00:09:51.919 --> 00:09:53.919
<v Speaker 2>share this story, not to just listeners, but just like

216
00:09:53.960 --> 00:09:56.320
<v Speaker 2>people I've talked to you, like my family, my friends,

217
00:09:56.360 --> 00:09:58.200
<v Speaker 2>and of course you would think they would have my side,

218
00:09:58.279 --> 00:10:01.240
<v Speaker 2>but like they're telling me, I have not left until

219
00:10:01.279 --> 00:10:05.639
<v Speaker 2>they literally refunded you your money and told you somebody's

220
00:10:05.639 --> 00:10:07.240
<v Speaker 2>coming here right now to fix your car. And like,

221
00:10:07.279 --> 00:10:08.919
<v Speaker 2>what's crazy is like I would never make those kind

222
00:10:08.960 --> 00:10:11.840
<v Speaker 2>of demands, but really that's not that's not a crazy request.

223
00:10:11.879 --> 00:10:14.600
<v Speaker 2>I came and gave you money, you bit. You know,

224
00:10:15.000 --> 00:10:17.480
<v Speaker 2>I'm sure my purchase was not something that really put

225
00:10:17.519 --> 00:10:21.879
<v Speaker 2>them over, but you took my money and gave me

226
00:10:22.120 --> 00:10:25.879
<v Speaker 2>back my car that doesn't work, and like that's not cool.

227
00:10:26.440 --> 00:10:28.279
<v Speaker 2>I mean to say, it's not cool as an understatement.

228
00:10:28.320 --> 00:10:32.480
<v Speaker 2>So yeah, I mean, and here's here, here's where I'm

229
00:10:32.480 --> 00:10:36.039
<v Speaker 2>at with it. John, if somebody was to like lose

230
00:10:36.080 --> 00:10:38.320
<v Speaker 2>their mind, it wouldn't mean they're in the wrong. It's

231
00:10:38.360 --> 00:10:40.399
<v Speaker 2>just not me. It's just not my personality. And I

232
00:10:40.399 --> 00:10:42.480
<v Speaker 2>don't mean because I'm holier than now and I'm such

233
00:10:42.480 --> 00:10:44.159
<v Speaker 2>a nice guy, not at all what I'm saying. It's

234
00:10:44.159 --> 00:10:46.879
<v Speaker 2>just not my personality. Like you know, some people think

235
00:10:46.879 --> 00:10:51.200
<v Speaker 2>because I'm I'm that could be standoffish. I'm not super

236
00:10:51.519 --> 00:10:55.639
<v Speaker 2>social publicly, and I am an introvert that at times,

237
00:10:55.799 --> 00:10:59.360
<v Speaker 2>especially in this line of work, has made people here

238
00:10:59.360 --> 00:11:05.559
<v Speaker 2>we go, it was up gush. It's just made me,

239
00:11:05.879 --> 00:11:08.960
<v Speaker 2>you know, made me seem like I am, you know,

240
00:11:09.039 --> 00:11:10.679
<v Speaker 2>not friendly, and that's not the case. It's just again,

241
00:11:10.720 --> 00:11:14.960
<v Speaker 2>it's more it's more my personality. So you know, we'll

242
00:11:14.960 --> 00:11:17.600
<v Speaker 2>see how this thing, you know, how it plays out.

243
00:11:17.720 --> 00:11:21.720
<v Speaker 2>And I'm not being like dramatic for effect. Here's what happens,

244
00:11:21.720 --> 00:11:23.279
<v Speaker 2>but those are I'll quickly tell you I took my

245
00:11:23.360 --> 00:11:26.840
<v Speaker 2>car to auto zone. I was just sad. I've already

246
00:11:26.799 --> 00:11:28.759
<v Speaker 2>said I took my car to autos on yesterday to

247
00:11:28.799 --> 00:11:31.200
<v Speaker 2>replace my battery I asked them, hey, can you replace

248
00:11:31.200 --> 00:11:33.600
<v Speaker 2>my battery? If not, no, biggie, I'll buy it and

249
00:11:33.639 --> 00:11:35.159
<v Speaker 2>I'll just have somebody else do it. Who can because

250
00:11:35.200 --> 00:11:36.759
<v Speaker 2>I have a boltswagon and I know that's difficult. They

251
00:11:36.799 --> 00:11:38.919
<v Speaker 2>checked in their system, told me that they could replace it,

252
00:11:39.279 --> 00:11:41.320
<v Speaker 2>and then for three hours they couldn't figure out why

253
00:11:41.320 --> 00:11:44.039
<v Speaker 2>the alarm system was going off. And at ten o'clock

254
00:11:44.120 --> 00:11:46.080
<v Speaker 2>we were going to call it a night because not only

255
00:11:46.600 --> 00:11:49.080
<v Speaker 2>had I bought a battery, they couldn't get installed. They

256
00:11:49.120 --> 00:11:51.240
<v Speaker 2>couldn't even put my old battery back on, like nothing

257
00:11:51.240 --> 00:11:54.559
<v Speaker 2>would work, and I could not get home. Luckily I

258
00:11:54.559 --> 00:11:56.679
<v Speaker 2>live close my wife could come and get me. And

259
00:11:56.720 --> 00:11:59.279
<v Speaker 2>then after three hours of them trying, they later figured

260
00:11:59.279 --> 00:12:01.480
<v Speaker 2>out that they were putting the battery in upside down

261
00:12:01.519 --> 00:12:05.000
<v Speaker 2>backwards but backwards the whole time and didn't realize it.

262
00:12:05.080 --> 00:12:10.080
<v Speaker 2>So once they realized their mistake, I mean, I I

263
00:12:10.480 --> 00:12:13.399
<v Speaker 2>feel like calling it a mistake is even like an understatement.

264
00:12:13.440 --> 00:12:16.639
<v Speaker 2>It's just in confidence that you'd never expect for people

265
00:12:16.960 --> 00:12:20.559
<v Speaker 2>who work at a at a at a auto place

266
00:12:21.440 --> 00:12:25.799
<v Speaker 2>like that should be a test that like maybe one day,

267
00:12:25.840 --> 00:12:29.600
<v Speaker 2>like in the employment manual, the what do you call it?

268
00:12:29.600 --> 00:12:33.480
<v Speaker 2>Like the onboarding manual, John, They'll have the Nick Coffee rule.

269
00:12:34.080 --> 00:12:37.120
<v Speaker 2>You can't work here unless you know which way a

270
00:12:37.120 --> 00:12:38.840
<v Speaker 2>battery goes. You don't even have to know how to

271
00:12:38.840 --> 00:12:41.320
<v Speaker 2>connect it, but you got to know what which which

272
00:12:41.360 --> 00:12:45.279
<v Speaker 2>side goes, which way? Wouldn't that would it would it

273
00:12:45.279 --> 00:12:47.759
<v Speaker 2>would not be good. But I'm just saying like they

274
00:12:47.759 --> 00:12:50.600
<v Speaker 2>should know that. So once they realized that the car

275
00:12:50.679 --> 00:12:53.720
<v Speaker 2>did start, but because of all of their failed attempts,

276
00:12:54.200 --> 00:12:56.360
<v Speaker 2>because they were like damaging my vehicle when they were

277
00:12:56.399 --> 00:13:00.000
<v Speaker 2>trying to connect the battery when it was on backwards,

278
00:12:59.799 --> 00:13:03.080
<v Speaker 2>it's fried the like some of my vehicle, Like it's

279
00:13:03.159 --> 00:13:07.000
<v Speaker 2>fried the computer system within my Volkswagen to an extent

280
00:13:07.080 --> 00:13:09.799
<v Speaker 2>where I have no power steering, my AC and heat,

281
00:13:09.879 --> 00:13:11.720
<v Speaker 2>like there's no life to that, Like no lights come on.

282
00:13:11.960 --> 00:13:13.039
<v Speaker 2>It's not like I can turn it on and it

283
00:13:13.080 --> 00:13:16.600
<v Speaker 2>doesn't work. It's just dead. And I got every error

284
00:13:16.600 --> 00:13:19.200
<v Speaker 2>message Volkswagen can send to you popping up anytime I

285
00:13:19.240 --> 00:13:22.200
<v Speaker 2>start the car. So I take it back today to them,

286
00:13:22.279 --> 00:13:24.639
<v Speaker 2>and again I'm only able to drive it with with

287
00:13:24.720 --> 00:13:27.279
<v Speaker 2>no power steering because I literally can get to my

288
00:13:27.399 --> 00:13:30.080
<v Speaker 2>home from that store. And it's I mean, it's it's

289
00:13:30.159 --> 00:13:33.440
<v Speaker 2>it's relatively close. It's not super close, but like I

290
00:13:33.480 --> 00:13:34.960
<v Speaker 2>can go through, no joke, and I can't. There are

291
00:13:35.000 --> 00:13:37.919
<v Speaker 2>three neighborhoods I go through to get there to my house,

292
00:13:38.039 --> 00:13:40.879
<v Speaker 2>to my house from AutoZone. So I got home last

293
00:13:40.960 --> 00:13:43.799
<v Speaker 2>night just because of that convenience. It was luck. So

294
00:13:43.840 --> 00:13:45.720
<v Speaker 2>I show up today, tell him, hey, yeah, the battery

295
00:13:45.759 --> 00:13:48.000
<v Speaker 2>did start, but now my car doesn't work. I just

296
00:13:48.039 --> 00:13:49.679
<v Speaker 2>want you to get my car to where it was

297
00:13:49.720 --> 00:13:52.320
<v Speaker 2>when I came here and gave you business. And they're

298
00:13:52.360 --> 00:13:56.039
<v Speaker 2>a Volkswall I don't know. We never like they have

299
00:13:56.080 --> 00:13:58.679
<v Speaker 2>they have no they have no uh. And it took

300
00:13:58.720 --> 00:14:03.240
<v Speaker 2>me calling their district man. It took me calling another

301
00:14:03.440 --> 00:14:06.279
<v Speaker 2>manager at a different store that my stepfather knows for

302
00:14:06.360 --> 00:14:08.559
<v Speaker 2>them to at least tell me here's what we're gonna do.

303
00:14:08.679 --> 00:14:13.480
<v Speaker 2>We're gonna tow your car to the dealership and they're

304
00:14:13.480 --> 00:14:15.159
<v Speaker 2>gonna have to connect it up to their system and

305
00:14:15.200 --> 00:14:19.279
<v Speaker 2>figure out what's wrong. And you know, I even feel

306
00:14:19.279 --> 00:14:23.399
<v Speaker 2>like I'm giving them too much credit by saying that's something,

307
00:14:23.480 --> 00:14:25.799
<v Speaker 2>like that is something, but like that's something you should

308
00:14:25.799 --> 00:14:28.039
<v Speaker 2>have done right away. I shouldn't have had to wait

309
00:14:28.039 --> 00:14:30.399
<v Speaker 2>there for six hours over two days for somebody to

310
00:14:30.440 --> 00:14:34.519
<v Speaker 2>get that plan in motion. So I left, my wife

311
00:14:34.559 --> 00:14:36.960
<v Speaker 2>came and picked me up. I had a bag, like

312
00:14:37.000 --> 00:14:39.200
<v Speaker 2>I had. I had a Thornton's bag, you know, I

313
00:14:39.200 --> 00:14:41.080
<v Speaker 2>had shout out of Thorsts. I had a Thorton's bag

314
00:14:41.080 --> 00:14:43.320
<v Speaker 2>in my car that I just put all my stuff in,

315
00:14:43.360 --> 00:14:47.000
<v Speaker 2>like my garage door opener, anything that could be, anything

316
00:14:47.000 --> 00:14:48.639
<v Speaker 2>that I may need. I mean, there's a lot of

317
00:14:48.639 --> 00:14:50.519
<v Speaker 2>stuff I put in that bag. And then I threw

318
00:14:50.840 --> 00:14:52.240
<v Speaker 2>the car seats from my kids in the back of

319
00:14:52.240 --> 00:14:54.240
<v Speaker 2>my wife's car. But when she picked me up, the

320
00:14:54.279 --> 00:14:56.320
<v Speaker 2>car seats were like sitting on the on the on

321
00:14:56.399 --> 00:14:59.399
<v Speaker 2>the curb. I mean, I was, uh in their parking lot,

322
00:14:59.559 --> 00:15:00.919
<v Speaker 2>but there was an on the curb, and I had

323
00:15:00.919 --> 00:15:03.159
<v Speaker 2>this bag, and I swear when she pulled in, I

324
00:15:03.200 --> 00:15:05.559
<v Speaker 2>feel like I just walked out of jail and I

325
00:15:05.639 --> 00:15:08.000
<v Speaker 2>had like what I had what was on me when

326
00:15:08.000 --> 00:15:10.000
<v Speaker 2>I got arrested, Like that's what it felt like. It

327
00:15:10.039 --> 00:15:13.639
<v Speaker 2>was like a purp walk to my wife's vehicle and

328
00:15:13.639 --> 00:15:17.799
<v Speaker 2>and she picked me up, and you know, she's fired up, man,

329
00:15:17.879 --> 00:15:20.600
<v Speaker 2>She's like, oh, is that the clown show over there

330
00:15:20.799 --> 00:15:23.600
<v Speaker 2>having another smoke break? Well, they've damaged your car and

331
00:15:23.639 --> 00:15:25.960
<v Speaker 2>I'm like, yeah, honey, I'll watch the car. You go

332
00:15:26.039 --> 00:15:27.399
<v Speaker 2>whoop their ass, Like you know, I didn't say that,

333
00:15:27.399 --> 00:15:29.559
<v Speaker 2>but that's what it felt like. She she's the she's

334
00:15:29.600 --> 00:15:33.960
<v Speaker 2>the the alpha here, which you know, hell yeah, they

335
00:15:33.159 --> 00:15:37.159
<v Speaker 2>were burning heaters, baby. I mean, I think the stress

336
00:15:37.200 --> 00:15:38.720
<v Speaker 2>of them not knowing what they were doing and then

337
00:15:38.759 --> 00:15:41.480
<v Speaker 2>realizing how stupid they were to not get it fixed.

338
00:15:41.559 --> 00:15:43.399
<v Speaker 2>They were burning. They might have burned through a cart

339
00:15:43.399 --> 00:15:47.559
<v Speaker 2>in Marlborough Reds last night and today John anyways, exactly.

340
00:15:48.240 --> 00:15:51.240
<v Speaker 2>So so then you know, we leave and like you know,

341
00:15:52.000 --> 00:15:53.519
<v Speaker 2>I get home and I'm thinking, okay, well they're gonna

342
00:15:53.519 --> 00:15:55.919
<v Speaker 2>get it towed. And best case scenario is this, they

343
00:15:55.960 --> 00:15:59.720
<v Speaker 2>connected to the Volkswagen Dealership computer system and they just

344
00:15:59.759 --> 00:16:02.840
<v Speaker 2>re said it and it's fine. But I called the

345
00:16:02.879 --> 00:16:04.759
<v Speaker 2>Volkswagen Dealership because I'm like, you know what, I'm not

346
00:16:04.799 --> 00:16:07.840
<v Speaker 2>taking their word for it. I'm pretty sure that if

347
00:16:07.840 --> 00:16:09.840
<v Speaker 2>I would have just told them, oh okay, huh see

348
00:16:09.879 --> 00:16:11.759
<v Speaker 2>you later, they'd have left the car there for years

349
00:16:12.000 --> 00:16:14.440
<v Speaker 2>and just assumed like, hey, this guy's just gonna gonna

350
00:16:14.440 --> 00:16:16.879
<v Speaker 2>eat it and be a chump and be a peon

351
00:16:17.279 --> 00:16:21.759
<v Speaker 2>because we broke his car. So I called the dealership

352
00:16:21.759 --> 00:16:23.919
<v Speaker 2>they're sending it to, which is a client of ours

353
00:16:23.919 --> 00:16:27.039
<v Speaker 2>here at Ihart nil Hufmand. And I said, you know,

354
00:16:27.360 --> 00:16:29.720
<v Speaker 2>here's here's what I said, lady into the phone. I

355
00:16:29.720 --> 00:16:33.039
<v Speaker 2>was like, yes, AutoZone is having my vehicle towed to

356
00:16:33.120 --> 00:16:37.399
<v Speaker 2>you guys, and I just want to know, like I

357
00:16:37.480 --> 00:16:39.320
<v Speaker 2>want to give you all my number, my contact info,

358
00:16:39.799 --> 00:16:42.440
<v Speaker 2>so whenever we find out what's going on, like somebody

359
00:16:42.480 --> 00:16:44.279
<v Speaker 2>lets me know, because I don't know if they're gonna

360
00:16:44.320 --> 00:16:46.360
<v Speaker 2>do that or not. And she was like, uh, honey,

361
00:16:46.360 --> 00:16:48.639
<v Speaker 2>did you make an appointment? And I said no. She said, oh,

362
00:16:48.639 --> 00:16:50.759
<v Speaker 2>we're backed up for three weeks. So I'm thinking, like,

363
00:16:50.799 --> 00:16:53.879
<v Speaker 2>oh my god, well they have a relationship business wise

364
00:16:53.879 --> 00:16:56.720
<v Speaker 2>to where like they if AutoZone is sending it to

365
00:16:56.720 --> 00:16:58.799
<v Speaker 2>the dealership, it's a little different than me making an appointment.

366
00:16:58.840 --> 00:17:01.159
<v Speaker 2>So she took my info and the manager of the

367
00:17:01.159 --> 00:17:03.240
<v Speaker 2>service department called me back and he was super super

368
00:17:03.360 --> 00:17:05.680
<v Speaker 2>nice and and and you know, kind and helpful. But

369
00:17:05.720 --> 00:17:08.759
<v Speaker 2>he said, I've not heard of anybody telling me we're

370
00:17:08.759 --> 00:17:10.880
<v Speaker 2>getting a vehicle here today. And he said, I'll call

371
00:17:10.920 --> 00:17:12.960
<v Speaker 2>you when I get notification that we've got one coming

372
00:17:13.000 --> 00:17:17.160
<v Speaker 2>from AutoZone. It's four twenty. I left there at eleven o'clock.

373
00:17:17.160 --> 00:17:19.039
<v Speaker 2>I haven't got a call yet. I bet my car

374
00:17:19.119 --> 00:17:21.559
<v Speaker 2>still sitting at AutoZone and the dealership that they told

375
00:17:21.559 --> 00:17:23.599
<v Speaker 2>me that was going to be fixing this doesn't even

376
00:17:23.599 --> 00:17:25.079
<v Speaker 2>know anything about what I'm talking about.

377
00:17:25.240 --> 00:17:27.079
<v Speaker 5>I'll come with you after work and go up to

378
00:17:27.160 --> 00:17:30.119
<v Speaker 5>beat up some people at AutoZone. Not literally, but.

379
00:17:30.079 --> 00:17:34.519
<v Speaker 2>You know you'd be the muscle, not me. I wouldn't be. Yeah, No, dude, John,

380
00:17:34.559 --> 00:17:36.400
<v Speaker 2>you're the guy that, like nobody would expect it, but

381
00:17:36.480 --> 00:17:39.680
<v Speaker 2>you might, like just with in thirty seconds murder somebody

382
00:17:39.680 --> 00:17:40.880
<v Speaker 2>like I could see it. And I mean that as

383
00:17:40.880 --> 00:17:46.720
<v Speaker 2>a compliment. You're you're mynd guy. Yeah, and it can

384
00:17:46.839 --> 00:17:49.440
<v Speaker 2>come the right time, like you'll turn into Jason Stathum

385
00:17:49.920 --> 00:17:51.720
<v Speaker 2>and it and it's bad news for everybody. That's the

386
00:17:51.720 --> 00:17:53.880
<v Speaker 2>way I see it. But so I tell him, like,

387
00:17:54.279 --> 00:17:56.359
<v Speaker 2>and I said, is this common that like you wouldn't

388
00:17:56.400 --> 00:18:00.480
<v Speaker 2>know that it's coming. And he said, he said, uh,

389
00:18:00.559 --> 00:18:04.039
<v Speaker 2>well yes, And no He's like, you know, it's a

390
00:18:04.079 --> 00:18:07.480
<v Speaker 2>little different process if a place like that is going

391
00:18:07.519 --> 00:18:09.440
<v Speaker 2>to be sending it something to us rather than a

392
00:18:09.480 --> 00:18:12.359
<v Speaker 2>customer making an appointment. And I said, okay, and he said, well,

393
00:18:12.359 --> 00:18:13.440
<v Speaker 2>I will. But they said, but I'll tell you this,

394
00:18:13.480 --> 00:18:16.000
<v Speaker 2>I will call you if, in fact I get your vehicle.

395
00:18:16.240 --> 00:18:17.559
<v Speaker 2>And I said, okay, great, and again I haven't heard

396
00:18:17.559 --> 00:18:19.559
<v Speaker 2>from m yet. And then I described to him. I said,

397
00:18:19.599 --> 00:18:22.720
<v Speaker 2>I don't know what's what happened, but here's the situation.

398
00:18:22.799 --> 00:18:26.759
<v Speaker 2>They replaced my battery incorrectly and now the car will start.

399
00:18:26.799 --> 00:18:29.319
<v Speaker 2>But I've got a lot of electronic electric issues within

400
00:18:29.359 --> 00:18:32.359
<v Speaker 2>the system of the computer of the car, which I mean,

401
00:18:32.519 --> 00:18:34.279
<v Speaker 2>I'm sure I'm not making any sense to anybody who

402
00:18:34.279 --> 00:18:38.240
<v Speaker 2>knows anything about cars, but by them incorrectly zap in

403
00:18:38.359 --> 00:18:41.519
<v Speaker 2>my car over three hours periodically to try to get

404
00:18:41.519 --> 00:18:44.680
<v Speaker 2>it started, not knowing they've got the battery disconnected. The

405
00:18:45.000 --> 00:18:47.519
<v Speaker 2>guy at the Volkswagen dealership who literally that's all he

406
00:18:47.559 --> 00:18:49.920
<v Speaker 2>does is work on he served his department that he

407
00:18:50.039 --> 00:18:52.880
<v Speaker 2>leads services Volkswagen vehicles. He's telling me with what I'm

408
00:18:52.920 --> 00:18:55.039
<v Speaker 2>describing that he thinks there's going to be some severe

409
00:18:55.119 --> 00:18:57.960
<v Speaker 2>damage and like the power steering not working at all

410
00:18:58.079 --> 00:19:01.039
<v Speaker 2>is not like a quick reset, and that the fact

411
00:19:01.079 --> 00:19:03.920
<v Speaker 2>that you know, the AC and heat have no life,

412
00:19:04.000 --> 00:19:06.279
<v Speaker 2>there's nothing like they're just dead. It's not like they're

413
00:19:06.319 --> 00:19:08.200
<v Speaker 2>just not blowing cold air or hot air. They just don't.

414
00:19:08.359 --> 00:19:10.880
<v Speaker 2>They just they're dead, you know. I don't think he

415
00:19:10.920 --> 00:19:12.400
<v Speaker 2>was trying to make me panic, but he was pretty

416
00:19:12.400 --> 00:19:14.799
<v Speaker 2>transparent as far as like, you know, that may not

417
00:19:14.880 --> 00:19:17.119
<v Speaker 2>be something that we just reset it and you come

418
00:19:17.119 --> 00:19:19.240
<v Speaker 2>pick it up. It could take a while. And I'm like,

419
00:19:19.319 --> 00:19:21.279
<v Speaker 2>you know, what do I do? Like cause again I

420
00:19:21.319 --> 00:19:23.160
<v Speaker 2>think they would help me, but I'm not paying for it,

421
00:19:23.880 --> 00:19:26.400
<v Speaker 2>you know. So then I called corporate of Auto Zone

422
00:19:26.559 --> 00:19:30.000
<v Speaker 2>and explained to them, and they were very helpful as

423
00:19:30.039 --> 00:19:32.599
<v Speaker 2>far as me laying I mean, unfortunately, I think my

424
00:19:32.759 --> 00:19:34.480
<v Speaker 2>situation is probably gonna get some people in trouble and

425
00:19:34.519 --> 00:19:36.319
<v Speaker 2>I hate that. But I'm not gonna just eat eat

426
00:19:36.359 --> 00:19:38.960
<v Speaker 2>a car and not have a vehicle because somebody was

427
00:19:39.000 --> 00:19:42.480
<v Speaker 2>a dumbass. Like any personal it's just it's life. So

428
00:19:42.559 --> 00:19:44.000
<v Speaker 2>I think that's what's gonna end up happening. But when

429
00:19:44.000 --> 00:19:46.799
<v Speaker 2>I said, like, hey, what if my vehicle's not available

430
00:19:47.000 --> 00:19:50.720
<v Speaker 2>for like three weeks, I have a vehicle I'm borrowing now,

431
00:19:51.279 --> 00:19:55.039
<v Speaker 2>but that I can't do that forever. I've I missed

432
00:19:55.039 --> 00:19:58.759
<v Speaker 2>my son's football last night, my wife was late to

433
00:19:58.799 --> 00:20:01.839
<v Speaker 2>work today, I didn't get my work day started until

434
00:20:03.200 --> 00:20:05.960
<v Speaker 2>one o'clock. And I'm fortunate to be able to have

435
00:20:06.000 --> 00:20:08.039
<v Speaker 2>a job where I can work from home if need be. Like,

436
00:20:08.279 --> 00:20:10.799
<v Speaker 2>I'm not asking you guys to cut me a check.

437
00:20:10.839 --> 00:20:13.799
<v Speaker 2>I'm just saying, like i've you all have my money,

438
00:20:13.839 --> 00:20:18.160
<v Speaker 2>You've made money from me, and you have negatively impacted

439
00:20:18.200 --> 00:20:21.559
<v Speaker 2>me and inconvenienced me in a major way. And I've

440
00:20:21.599 --> 00:20:26.799
<v Speaker 2>yet to hear anybody give me any sign that you're

441
00:20:26.839 --> 00:20:30.400
<v Speaker 2>gonna do something to make me whole. And when I

442
00:20:30.440 --> 00:20:34.000
<v Speaker 2>said that, he said, it's a great question. I'm gonna

443
00:20:34.039 --> 00:20:38.000
<v Speaker 2>put this in the ticket. Oh my, But once he

444
00:20:38.039 --> 00:20:39.480
<v Speaker 2>said he can't tell me. He doesn't know. He's the

445
00:20:39.480 --> 00:20:42.200
<v Speaker 2>customer service guy. You know, you know, I don't blame him.

446
00:20:42.200 --> 00:20:44.440
<v Speaker 2>He was the most helpful person I talked to. Yeah,

447
00:20:44.480 --> 00:20:46.680
<v Speaker 2>And I said, do you have a ticket number? He

448
00:20:46.720 --> 00:20:49.759
<v Speaker 2>said no, but if you call your number, will will

449
00:20:49.759 --> 00:20:52.400
<v Speaker 2>register to this. And I'm like you sure, He's like yes,

450
00:20:53.559 --> 00:20:55.039
<v Speaker 2>And I'm like, well, I hate to doubt you, but

451
00:20:55.119 --> 00:20:57.680
<v Speaker 2>like I was just told somebody was coming to pick

452
00:20:57.720 --> 00:21:00.400
<v Speaker 2>my car up, and now here I know of four

453
00:21:00.400 --> 00:21:02.960
<v Speaker 2>to twenty four nobody's going to pick it up yet.

454
00:21:04.000 --> 00:21:07.680
<v Speaker 2>All right, real quick, we do let's let's go to

455
00:21:07.680 --> 00:21:10.680
<v Speaker 2>the phone lines here and go to Andrew, who joins

456
00:21:10.720 --> 00:21:13.319
<v Speaker 2>us on Sports Talk seven ninety. Thank you for holding

457
00:21:13.319 --> 00:21:16.680
<v Speaker 2>and letting me, you know, bitch essentially about my inconvenience.

458
00:21:16.680 --> 00:21:18.400
<v Speaker 2>I'm sure you don't care about that, but thank you

459
00:21:18.400 --> 00:21:19.200
<v Speaker 2>for holding. What's up?

460
00:21:20.440 --> 00:21:22.920
<v Speaker 6>Actually I do did, because I went through the movie

461
00:21:23.000 --> 00:21:27.000
<v Speaker 6>exact same thing. Mine wasn't quite as bad as yours

462
00:21:27.240 --> 00:21:30.519
<v Speaker 6>as far as your story ending with your car, but

463
00:21:30.680 --> 00:21:34.240
<v Speaker 6>I went to AutoZone. The individual put the battery and backwards.

464
00:21:35.519 --> 00:21:36.240
<v Speaker 4>It ended up.

465
00:21:36.160 --> 00:21:40.160
<v Speaker 6>Blowing the hues, which then did not allow us to

466
00:21:40.240 --> 00:21:44.119
<v Speaker 6>turn the car on at all. And I should have

467
00:21:44.240 --> 00:21:49.000
<v Speaker 6>had I should have known because the posts on a

468
00:21:49.039 --> 00:21:53.599
<v Speaker 6>battery are two different sizes, so he tried to put

469
00:21:53.599 --> 00:21:55.519
<v Speaker 6>the small on the big and had to open it

470
00:21:55.599 --> 00:21:57.640
<v Speaker 6>up to get it to fit, and then had to

471
00:21:57.680 --> 00:21:59.880
<v Speaker 6>close the small to get it on for the big

472
00:22:00.039 --> 00:22:03.440
<v Speaker 6>one to get it on the small. Anyway, Luckily my

473
00:22:03.559 --> 00:22:06.680
<v Speaker 6>son was reading the owner's manual. They found out that

474
00:22:06.759 --> 00:22:11.440
<v Speaker 6>there was a fuse in my car, Honda, that that's

475
00:22:11.480 --> 00:22:14.480
<v Speaker 6>what was blown, and we got that replaced in the

476
00:22:14.519 --> 00:22:15.240
<v Speaker 6>car started.

477
00:22:17.119 --> 00:22:19.119
<v Speaker 2>Well, when you started it, did you have any other

478
00:22:19.240 --> 00:22:21.319
<v Speaker 2>like fuse issues or were you back to where you

479
00:22:21.359 --> 00:22:22.240
<v Speaker 2>were preissued.

480
00:22:25.039 --> 00:22:28.119
<v Speaker 6>No, everything was fine after that. Now I ended up

481
00:22:28.160 --> 00:22:32.640
<v Speaker 6>having problems later because the fuse we put in it

482
00:22:32.720 --> 00:22:34.599
<v Speaker 6>was always supposed to be one hundred and twenty five volt.

483
00:22:34.880 --> 00:22:39.559
<v Speaker 6>We put in a two fifty, causing problems later. But

484
00:22:39.720 --> 00:22:43.839
<v Speaker 6>that's not their fault. The point is it's a it's

485
00:22:43.880 --> 00:22:48.839
<v Speaker 6>a training thing. Yes, that the people at AutoZone should

486
00:22:48.920 --> 00:22:52.039
<v Speaker 6>have known that they're putting it in wrong, because, like

487
00:22:52.079 --> 00:22:55.519
<v Speaker 6>I said, the terminals are two different sizes, and if

488
00:22:55.519 --> 00:22:57.440
<v Speaker 6>it hadn't been for my son looking up at the

489
00:22:57.480 --> 00:23:00.799
<v Speaker 6>owner's manual, we would never have figured out that. And I,

490
00:23:00.960 --> 00:23:03.319
<v Speaker 6>like you, would have had to have my car toad

491
00:23:03.720 --> 00:23:04.599
<v Speaker 6>to get up fixed.

492
00:23:05.279 --> 00:23:08.799
<v Speaker 2>Well, Andrew, I appreciate you holding, and I want to

493
00:23:08.839 --> 00:23:11.839
<v Speaker 2>respond to everything you said. I'm gonna I'm gonna put

494
00:23:11.839 --> 00:23:13.799
<v Speaker 2>you on hold and drop the call. But I hope

495
00:23:13.799 --> 00:23:18.880
<v Speaker 2>you're listening because I will say this, we have very

496
00:23:18.880 --> 00:23:21.839
<v Speaker 2>similar situations. Because you mentioned your son and the owner's manual,

497
00:23:21.920 --> 00:23:25.720
<v Speaker 2>I was using chat GPT to show them what could

498
00:23:25.759 --> 00:23:27.599
<v Speaker 2>potentially be the issue as to why the alarm was

499
00:23:27.640 --> 00:23:32.920
<v Speaker 2>going off. Chat GPT like AI, maybe we need to

500
00:23:33.000 --> 00:23:34.759
<v Speaker 2>use AI for these kind of things. I don't know,

501
00:23:36.039 --> 00:23:38.599
<v Speaker 2>but but you mentioned like you couldn't like once they

502
00:23:38.640 --> 00:23:40.519
<v Speaker 2>did that, the car wouldn't start at all. The two

503
00:23:40.599 --> 00:23:42.640
<v Speaker 2>and I don't blame these people, but the two two

504
00:23:42.680 --> 00:23:45.599
<v Speaker 2>employees of AutoZone that I talked to, one via phone

505
00:23:45.839 --> 00:23:48.319
<v Speaker 2>another employee that was there that were not involved in

506
00:23:48.400 --> 00:23:51.480
<v Speaker 2>last night's fiasco. When I shared with them everything that

507
00:23:51.599 --> 00:23:54.559
<v Speaker 2>happened and told them that the car still started but

508
00:23:54.640 --> 00:24:00.200
<v Speaker 2>everything else didn't work, they they reacted not like you're lucky,

509
00:24:00.359 --> 00:24:02.880
<v Speaker 2>but that was their vibe, like, given what they did,

510
00:24:02.960 --> 00:24:06.640
<v Speaker 2>I'm surprised this car is alive, Like I'm surprised. So

511
00:24:07.079 --> 00:24:09.119
<v Speaker 2>you know, they're looking at it from like, damn, it

512
00:24:09.119 --> 00:24:11.079
<v Speaker 2>should have been a lot worse. You're lucky. They're not

513
00:24:11.160 --> 00:24:13.920
<v Speaker 2>telling me that, but like they realize how incoonfident and

514
00:24:13.960 --> 00:24:17.200
<v Speaker 2>how awful the whole thing was from that side of it.

515
00:24:17.240 --> 00:24:18.920
<v Speaker 2>So again, it wouldn't as if they were like, hey,

516
00:24:18.920 --> 00:24:21.039
<v Speaker 2>you should just know that your car will turn on

517
00:24:21.119 --> 00:24:23.680
<v Speaker 2>and be happy. But like I think they heard what

518
00:24:23.759 --> 00:24:26.960
<v Speaker 2>the others did and thought to themselves, I'm surprised this

519
00:24:26.960 --> 00:24:30.119
<v Speaker 2>thing isn't blown up. All right, quick break, We'll come

520
00:24:30.119 --> 00:24:33.599
<v Speaker 2>back on the other side and keep this thing rolling along.

521
00:24:35.039 --> 00:24:36.920
<v Speaker 2>I think we're gonna talk to doctor Eric mackerel here

522
00:24:36.960 --> 00:24:39.559
<v Speaker 2>on the other side, having got the full RSVP. But

523
00:24:39.599 --> 00:24:41.319
<v Speaker 2>we're gonna see what we can make shake here and

524
00:24:42.119 --> 00:24:45.440
<v Speaker 2>keep this thing rolling along. And I don't want to

525
00:24:45.480 --> 00:24:50.599
<v Speaker 2>make it the Nick Battery Issue show, but it kind

526
00:24:50.599 --> 00:24:52.880
<v Speaker 2>of has become that because I'm a blessed Nana. For

527
00:24:52.920 --> 00:24:55.960
<v Speaker 2>those who't understand the reference, my wife's grandmother has loaned

528
00:24:55.960 --> 00:24:57.440
<v Speaker 2>me her vehicle and she's got a big sticker on

529
00:24:57.480 --> 00:24:59.680
<v Speaker 2>the back that says blessed Nana. So I'm riding in

530
00:24:59.720 --> 00:25:05.759
<v Speaker 2>style courtesy of auto Zone. Thank you. I'm not even

531
00:25:05.799 --> 00:25:07.319
<v Speaker 2>gonna guess who is this.

532
00:25:07.319 --> 00:25:10.279
<v Speaker 3>This is Smith and Myers. It's half of Shineedown. They're

533
00:25:10.279 --> 00:25:12.400
<v Speaker 3>gonna be at on Saturday.

534
00:25:13.640 --> 00:25:15.119
<v Speaker 2>Are you? Are you into these guys?

535
00:25:15.440 --> 00:25:17.759
<v Speaker 3>I like the Shinedown version of them. I've never really

536
00:25:17.799 --> 00:25:19.400
<v Speaker 3>listened to much of their their duo.

537
00:25:19.480 --> 00:25:22.680
<v Speaker 2>Okayustic, I like Shinedown too. I won't claim to be like,

538
00:25:22.759 --> 00:25:25.559
<v Speaker 2>you know, like a super fan, but like they were

539
00:25:25.720 --> 00:25:27.640
<v Speaker 2>they were they again helped me out. Were they really

540
00:25:27.680 --> 00:25:28.640
<v Speaker 2>big when I was in high school?

541
00:25:28.680 --> 00:25:30.880
<v Speaker 3>Like they have their They broke out in the mid

542
00:25:30.920 --> 00:25:33.880
<v Speaker 3>two thousands, Yes, and they've been pretty steady going ever

543
00:25:33.920 --> 00:25:35.119
<v Speaker 3>since Shinedown.

544
00:25:35.519 --> 00:25:38.039
<v Speaker 2>I feel like was was was in their breakout whenever

545
00:25:38.079 --> 00:25:40.039
<v Speaker 2>I was in high school, and uh they were. And

546
00:25:40.359 --> 00:25:42.559
<v Speaker 2>I still like their sound even today listening to music

547
00:25:42.799 --> 00:25:46.359
<v Speaker 2>from that time, which was twenty years ago. Really, But

548
00:25:48.000 --> 00:25:49.480
<v Speaker 2>when you say it's a version of them, like is

549
00:25:49.519 --> 00:25:50.000
<v Speaker 2>they is?

550
00:25:50.000 --> 00:25:50.119
<v Speaker 4>It?

551
00:25:50.240 --> 00:25:51.759
<v Speaker 2>Like just two of they.

552
00:25:51.839 --> 00:25:53.599
<v Speaker 3>Played and I guess they may play a couple of

553
00:25:53.599 --> 00:25:55.880
<v Speaker 3>their songs whenever they perform, but it's their singer and

554
00:25:55.920 --> 00:25:59.160
<v Speaker 3>their lead guitarist. They tour playing more acoustic style music,

555
00:25:59.200 --> 00:26:00.920
<v Speaker 3>so of its original than some of its covers.

556
00:26:01.000 --> 00:26:01.720
<v Speaker 2>And what are they called?

557
00:26:01.880 --> 00:26:03.519
<v Speaker 5>Smith and Myers is their last names.

558
00:26:03.759 --> 00:26:06.640
<v Speaker 2>I like it a lot a lot that that's because

559
00:26:06.680 --> 00:26:09.319
<v Speaker 2>to me, that's that's country enough. But it's not really country.

560
00:26:09.400 --> 00:26:10.480
<v Speaker 5>Yeah, it's like it's.

561
00:26:10.319 --> 00:26:12.319
<v Speaker 2>Got a to me, it's got a little Drake White

562
00:26:12.319 --> 00:26:15.839
<v Speaker 2>in it, which I really love Drake White style and sound.

563
00:26:16.119 --> 00:26:18.759
<v Speaker 2>Whereas I can I can hear that voice from Shindown,

564
00:26:18.960 --> 00:26:19.480
<v Speaker 2>you know what I mean?

565
00:26:19.640 --> 00:26:20.839
<v Speaker 5>Like, Yeah, good stuff?

00:26:25.000 --> 00:26:26.720
<v Speaker 2>We need to go see them together. That would be

568
00:26:26.759 --> 00:26:30.319
<v Speaker 2>a good coffee and company bro bonding.

569
00:26:30.400 --> 00:26:33.000
<v Speaker 5>It would be shine Down live three different times.

<v Speaker 2>What was their big hit shine doown that like.

571

572
00:26:44.480 --> 00:26:46.240
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, you did it much better than me. But I

573
00:26:46.279 --> 00:26:47.759
<v Speaker 2>feel like they had a different song.

574
00:26:47.640 --> 00:26:49.559
<v Speaker 5>Had Sound of Madness, same album.

575

00:27:25.400 --> 00:27:27.279
<v Speaker 2>text line and in my personal phone about my whole

589
00:27:27.279 --> 00:27:30.839
<v Speaker 2>Auto Zonne situation. But there's a Facebook group for Bourbon

590
00:27:30.880 --> 00:27:33.880
<v Speaker 2>and Beyond that it's not put on by the event itself, Okay,

591
00:27:34.079 --> 00:27:35.720
<v Speaker 2>I don't think it is, but like just people because

592
00:27:35.720 --> 00:27:37.759
<v Speaker 2>there's so many people from across the world coming to it,

593
00:27:37.880 --> 00:27:40.920
<v Speaker 2>and everybody kind of sharing stories and sharing information for

594
00:27:40.960 --> 00:27:43.839
<v Speaker 2>first timers, like tips about those that are camping, which

595
00:27:43.839 --> 00:27:46.160
<v Speaker 2>you can and can't bring in. But I stumbled upon

596
00:27:46.200 --> 00:27:48.720
<v Speaker 2>the page and like, some of the complaints that they

597
00:27:48.759 --> 00:27:51.079
<v Speaker 2>have are funny. I'm not gonna bring it up to

598
00:27:51.119 --> 00:27:54.319
<v Speaker 2>like bury the group that puts this event together, because

599
00:27:54.319 --> 00:27:56.559
<v Speaker 2>they do a phenomenal job, but like the little things

600
00:27:56.559 --> 00:27:58.880
<v Speaker 2>that people lose their mind about is hilarious.

601
00:27:59.279 --> 00:28:01.440
<v Speaker 3>Usually, I mean, maybe things are different this year, but

602
00:28:01.480 --> 00:28:03.480
<v Speaker 3>there's not usually a lot of issues from.

603
00:28:03.319 --> 00:28:05.200
<v Speaker 2>World Oh no, no, no, just me. I don't want to

604
00:28:05.200 --> 00:28:09.039
<v Speaker 2>make it seem is if is if you know, the

605
00:28:09.039 --> 00:28:11.599
<v Speaker 2>there's even a tiny percentage of the people going that

606
00:28:11.640 --> 00:28:14.079
<v Speaker 2>aren't having a great time. But no matter what, you're

607
00:28:14.119 --> 00:28:17.359
<v Speaker 2>gonna find people to complain. You're never gonna please everybody.

608
00:28:17.599 --> 00:28:20.480
<v Speaker 2>And where do they have to go to to, you know,

609
00:28:20.559 --> 00:28:24.359
<v Speaker 2>to to express that Facebook so and you know, and

610
00:28:24.519 --> 00:28:27.000
<v Speaker 2>and a lot of the complaints are filled with comments

611
00:28:27.000 --> 00:28:32.440
<v Speaker 2>of people like chill out, Karen, but bleeding at a

612
00:28:32.480 --> 00:28:34.759
<v Speaker 2>music festival and I don't mean blood from your body.

613
00:28:35.119 --> 00:28:37.680
<v Speaker 2>There's a lot of people said the bleeding is so bad,

614
00:28:38.279 --> 00:28:40.519
<v Speaker 2>the bleeding and what they mean I learned is that

615
00:28:41.160 --> 00:28:43.880
<v Speaker 2>bleeding from one stage to the other, like music that

616
00:28:44.000 --> 00:28:47.079
<v Speaker 2>you know, I'm trying to listen to this band and

617
00:28:47.119 --> 00:28:49.680
<v Speaker 2>now I've got, you know, something in my ear that's

618
00:28:49.720 --> 00:28:50.440
<v Speaker 2>from across the way.

619
00:28:50.559 --> 00:28:53.440
<v Speaker 3>Let's say they I've noticed from the from the interstate

620
00:28:53.519 --> 00:28:56.440
<v Speaker 3>they have kind of rearranged the stage layout this year,

621
00:28:56.440 --> 00:28:58.440
<v Speaker 3>at least the smaller stages and where they're located.

622
00:28:58.480 --> 00:28:58.880
<v Speaker 5>I don't know.

623
00:28:58.920 --> 00:29:00.759
<v Speaker 3>Again, I haven't been there just yet, but maybe it's

624
00:29:00.799 --> 00:29:02.680
<v Speaker 3>a little different th usual because they haven't had that

625
00:29:02.720 --> 00:29:04.079
<v Speaker 3>problem in the past of you.

626
00:29:04.079 --> 00:29:05.839
<v Speaker 2>Like, and it may just be one person who thinks

627
00:29:05.880 --> 00:29:07.839
<v Speaker 2>it's trust me. I don't want to make it seem

628
00:29:07.839 --> 00:29:09.640
<v Speaker 2>as if I'm acting like things are bad, but I

629
00:29:09.759 --> 00:29:14.519
<v Speaker 2>enjoy seeing people lose their Like. My Facebook neighborhood group

630
00:29:14.720 --> 00:29:19.240
<v Speaker 2>is hilarious because people will be like the male man

631
00:29:19.359 --> 00:29:22.039
<v Speaker 2>used to come at one, now he's coming at two thirty.

632
00:29:22.119 --> 00:29:25.680
<v Speaker 2>Like you gotta be a bored, lonely, nothing to do

633
00:29:25.799 --> 00:29:27.799
<v Speaker 2>person for that to be like, you're gonna go to

634
00:29:27.799 --> 00:29:29.799

642
00:29:45.640 --> 00:29:47.680
<v Speaker 2>let me get, let me get, let me get this.

643
00:29:47.680 --> 00:29:52.119
<v Speaker 2>This read started as we speak because underdog Fantasy. There

644
00:29:52.119 --> 00:29:55.279
<v Speaker 2>are over a million people across thirty three states. They

645
00:29:55.279 --> 00:29:58.119
<v Speaker 2>got involved with Underdog Fantasy just last year because they're new,

646
00:29:58.200 --> 00:30:01.319
<v Speaker 2>but they're taken over and they're competing in Underdog Fantasy

647
00:30:01.319 --> 00:30:02.880
<v Speaker 2>and they're winning money. You can went up to one

648
00:30:02.920 --> 00:30:05.839
<v Speaker 2>thousand times your money just by choosing high or lower

649
00:30:06.000 --> 00:30:10.079
<v Speaker 2>on your favorite player stats touchdowns, passing yards, receiving yards, receptions,

650
00:30:10.119 --> 00:30:12.039
<v Speaker 2>all that stuff. You know how it works, right, You

652
00:30:14.559 --> 00:30:16.480
<v Speaker 2>You decide as it going high or is it going lower?

653
00:30:16.920 --> 00:30:18.680
<v Speaker 2>And I don't know why, but I feel like that's

654
00:30:18.680 --> 00:30:21.240
<v Speaker 2>easier to do than deciding what happens in a game.

655
00:30:22.000 --> 00:30:23.559
<v Speaker 2>May not be, but that's just the way I see it,

656
00:30:23.559 --> 00:30:25.359

678
00:31:19.119 --> 00:31:20.880
<v Speaker 2>already started for a lot of folks. I'm sure it's

679
00:31:20.880 --> 00:31:23.119
<v Speaker 2>already started. For our next guest joining us, it's doctor

<v Speaker 2>Eric McElroy of pro Rea Physical Therapy. How are we doing,

<v Speaker 2>Doctor McElroy? Doing good?

682
00:31:28.799 --> 00:31:30.799
<v Speaker 4>I'm doing great. Nick. How are you doing?

683
00:31:30.960 --> 00:31:34.279
<v Speaker 2>I'm doing well. Uh, you know, I'm I'm here working hard,

684
00:31:34.319 --> 00:31:36.200
<v Speaker 2>but I know there's a lot of folks that are

685
00:31:36.240 --> 00:31:38.200
<v Speaker 2>out at Bourbon and beyond and enjoying themselves. And I'm

686
00:31:38.200 --> 00:31:40.640
<v Speaker 2>a little jealous, but you know, it's part of the

687
00:31:40.680 --> 00:31:43.960
<v Speaker 2>gig I got. I've got a full day of football

688
00:31:44.000 --> 00:31:47.799
<v Speaker 2>tomorrow that I'm looking forward to. So speaking of Louisville football,

689
00:31:47.799 --> 00:31:50.160
<v Speaker 2>they've they've got a first test tomorrow. They haven't played

690
00:31:50.160 --> 00:31:52.559
<v Speaker 2>anybody really worth talking about. However, we'll see kind of

691
00:31:52.559 --> 00:31:54.839
<v Speaker 2>where they stand tomorrow. But one of the one of

692
00:31:54.839 --> 00:31:58.559
<v Speaker 2>the I guess key editions during the offseason was Colin Lacy,

693
00:31:58.559 --> 00:32:01.880
<v Speaker 2>a transfer from South Alabama, and we discussed his injury

694
00:32:01.880 --> 00:32:04.680
<v Speaker 2>at a collar broone break that required surgery that happened

695
00:32:04.680 --> 00:32:07.279
<v Speaker 2>in fall camp. Initially, I believe they said six to

696
00:32:07.279 --> 00:32:10.039
<v Speaker 2>eight weeks was the timeline. Uh, And and I think

697
00:32:10.119 --> 00:32:12.920
<v Speaker 2>that that that's that's close to where we are now.

698
00:32:12.960 --> 00:32:15.240
<v Speaker 2>But Jeff Bram on his Coaches show this week, Eric

699
00:32:15.279 --> 00:32:17.720
<v Speaker 2>mentioned that he has not been cleared to play, but

700
00:32:17.799 --> 00:32:20.240
<v Speaker 2>he is back in practice and that they think they

701
00:32:20.279 --> 00:32:22.319
<v Speaker 2>may be able to get him back next week for

702
00:32:22.440 --> 00:32:24.759
<v Speaker 2>Notre Dame. Just kind of get I guess it all

703
00:32:24.880 --> 00:32:27.319
<v Speaker 2>is dependent upon you know, I guess how severe the

704
00:32:27.400 --> 00:32:29.400
<v Speaker 2>break was, but you know, just what do I know?

705
00:32:29.440 --> 00:32:31.559
<v Speaker 2>But I feel like this is this is pretty speedy progress.

706
00:32:31.599 --> 00:32:34.039
<v Speaker 2>If that if he's if he's close to being cleared

707
00:32:34.279 --> 00:32:35.480
<v Speaker 2>to play in just a week or so.

708
00:32:37.119 --> 00:32:39.319
<v Speaker 7>Uh yeah, yes, and no, I mean I think that

709
00:32:39.319 --> 00:32:41.960
<v Speaker 7>it's great progress. That means they're running any setbacks or

710
00:32:42.000 --> 00:32:47.039
<v Speaker 7>any complications. But you know, bone bone fractures, though they're

711
00:32:47.119 --> 00:32:50.000
<v Speaker 7>very painful and can be very complicated depending on the

712
00:32:50.039 --> 00:32:52.799
<v Speaker 7>type of fracture, you know, there's not a lot of

713
00:32:52.920 --> 00:32:55.960
<v Speaker 7>especially at the clavicle, there's not a lot of soft

714
00:32:55.960 --> 00:33:00.400
<v Speaker 7>tissue trauma that would impact function. So you know, it's

715
00:33:00.960 --> 00:33:03.240
<v Speaker 7>the soft tissue issues like if you had a really

716
00:33:03.240 --> 00:33:06.799
<v Speaker 7>bad you know, a lot of unstable excuse me, a

717
00:33:06.839 --> 00:33:10.039
<v Speaker 7>lot of issues with instability because of a ligament trauma,

718
00:33:10.319 --> 00:33:12.680
<v Speaker 7>or you know, you had a tendon rupture, things that

719
00:33:12.720 --> 00:33:16.160
<v Speaker 7>would really impact function, that's a different animal. But if

720
00:33:16.160 --> 00:33:19.119
<v Speaker 7>it's a kind of a you know, just a normal

721
00:33:19.200 --> 00:33:21.799
<v Speaker 7>fracture where they can either they can go in or

722
00:33:21.839 --> 00:33:23.359
<v Speaker 7>either a heal on its own, or they can go

723
00:33:23.440 --> 00:33:27.160
<v Speaker 7>in and you know, surgically stabilize it, and then it's

724
00:33:27.160 --> 00:33:29.440
<v Speaker 7>about just letting that bone get strong enough to take

725
00:33:29.440 --> 00:33:31.880
<v Speaker 7>the forces of the impact of whatever the activity is,

726
00:33:31.920 --> 00:33:33.440
<v Speaker 7>so in this case obviously football.

727
00:33:33.880 --> 00:33:36.279
<v Speaker 4>And then from that point, and you know, six d eight

728
00:33:36.279 --> 00:33:37.000
<v Speaker 4>weeks is kind.

729
00:33:36.920 --> 00:33:39.640
<v Speaker 7>Of a general term or that's what they're gonna throw

730
00:33:39.680 --> 00:33:43.799
<v Speaker 7>out for everything generally with tissue, with healing, especially fractures.

731
00:33:44.359 --> 00:33:45.000
<v Speaker 4>And then at that.

732
00:33:45.039 --> 00:33:49.119
<v Speaker 7>Point, if the functions there the shoulder, which you know,

733
00:33:49.160 --> 00:33:52.160
<v Speaker 7>depending on again depending on where that fracture is, is.

734
00:33:52.200 --> 00:33:53.000
<v Speaker 4>Likely the case.

735
00:33:54.000 --> 00:33:56.160
<v Speaker 7>It doesn't really take long to get them stronger, doesn't

736
00:33:56.359 --> 00:33:57.200
<v Speaker 7>really take them.

737
00:33:57.200 --> 00:33:59.519
<v Speaker 4>Along to get that reaction time back and the speed

738
00:33:59.559 --> 00:34:02.160
<v Speaker 4>of the ability for him to move his extremities and

739
00:34:02.240 --> 00:34:04.160
<v Speaker 4>to catch a ball.

740
00:34:05.039 --> 00:34:07.240
<v Speaker 7>You know, worst case is it strong enough for him

741
00:34:07.279 --> 00:34:10.400
<v Speaker 7>to land on it, because you know, likely that's likely.

742
00:34:10.239 --> 00:34:11.159
<v Speaker 4>To happen at some point.

743
00:34:11.719 --> 00:34:14.199
<v Speaker 7>So if those things are you know, if he's checking

744
00:34:14.239 --> 00:34:16.039
<v Speaker 7>the boxes for all those things, then it's just full

745
00:34:16.079 --> 00:34:18.280
<v Speaker 7>go and becomes you know, a week to week and

746
00:34:18.360 --> 00:34:20.920
<v Speaker 7>day to day and game time decision.

747
00:34:21.079 --> 00:34:23.599
<v Speaker 2>So you know, if he is if he is clear

748
00:34:23.719 --> 00:34:26.679
<v Speaker 2>to go, you know, I'm I guess I'm asking you

749
00:34:26.679 --> 00:34:28.559
<v Speaker 2>to speculating guests here, and I apologize for putting you

750
00:34:28.599 --> 00:34:30.880
<v Speaker 2>in this spot, But you know, would they how much

751
00:34:30.880 --> 00:34:34.360
<v Speaker 2>would they really utilize him in practice before giving him

752
00:34:34.360 --> 00:34:36.480
<v Speaker 2>the green light to Okay, hey, let's put him out

753
00:34:36.480 --> 00:34:37.760
<v Speaker 2>there on the field and see and you know, and

754
00:34:38.000 --> 00:34:40.039
<v Speaker 2>let him play because obviously you want to be as

755
00:34:40.039 --> 00:34:42.280
<v Speaker 2>cautious and careful as possible. But also, I don't know,

756
00:34:42.320 --> 00:34:44.280
<v Speaker 2>maybe I'm wrong. I just feel like him kind of

757
00:34:44.280 --> 00:34:46.760
<v Speaker 2>taking his first big hit in a game. It might

758
00:34:46.800 --> 00:34:48.519
<v Speaker 2>make sense because hey, you know, at least he's doing

759
00:34:48.559 --> 00:34:50.320
<v Speaker 2>it in a game that matters and not a practice.

760
00:34:50.320 --> 00:34:52.519
<v Speaker 2>But I'm just curious, like would he be how fresh

761
00:34:52.559 --> 00:34:56.039
<v Speaker 2>would he be in a game situation coming off of practice.

762
00:34:56.039 --> 00:34:57.440
<v Speaker 2>I feel like he'd still be pretty limited.

763
00:34:59.559 --> 00:35:00.719
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, he's gonna be limited.

764
00:35:00.760 --> 00:35:03.239
<v Speaker 7>I mean, you know, at this level, you know, the

765
00:35:03.480 --> 00:35:05.559
<v Speaker 7>biggest thing is is can he perform what he needs

766
00:35:05.559 --> 00:35:06.679
<v Speaker 7>to do as a receiver.

767
00:35:06.920 --> 00:35:09.159
<v Speaker 4>You know, getting tackles, getting tackled.

768
00:35:09.559 --> 00:35:11.519
<v Speaker 7>You know, there's no need to see how well he

769
00:35:11.559 --> 00:35:13.320
<v Speaker 7>can take a hit. You know you're gonna go off

770
00:35:13.360 --> 00:35:16.760
<v Speaker 7>the fact that it's strong enough to allow that to happen.

771
00:35:17.280 --> 00:35:17.840
<v Speaker 4>Obviously.

772
00:35:18.039 --> 00:35:20.159
<v Speaker 7>You know, as we all watch sports or have played them,

773
00:35:20.199 --> 00:35:22.199
<v Speaker 7>we know not every tackle is the same, not every

774
00:35:22.239 --> 00:35:23.519
<v Speaker 7>time you go to the grounds the same.

775
00:35:25.000 --> 00:35:27.119
<v Speaker 4>But you want to protect him, you know, his value

776
00:35:27.159 --> 00:35:29.039
<v Speaker 4>to be on the field is more important than seeing

777
00:35:29.039 --> 00:35:30.719
<v Speaker 4>how well he can take a hit. In practice.

778
00:35:30.920 --> 00:35:32.880
<v Speaker 7>Sure, there's gonna be some things he's gonna do, they're

779
00:35:32.960 --> 00:35:35.719
<v Speaker 7>very physical in practice, to make sure that he's capable,

780
00:35:36.639 --> 00:35:39.679
<v Speaker 7>you know, blocking taking some level of contact. There's no

781
00:35:39.760 --> 00:35:41.440
<v Speaker 7>point for him to go to the ground. I mean

782
00:35:41.480 --> 00:35:43.280
<v Speaker 7>a lot of times none. Most of these guys aren't

783
00:35:43.280 --> 00:35:45.760
<v Speaker 7>going to the ground at this point because the risk

784
00:35:45.840 --> 00:35:48.800
<v Speaker 7>reward is not as important, you know, it's not there.

785
00:35:48.840 --> 00:35:51.599
<v Speaker 7>So yeah, I mean he's gonna you know, how well

786
00:35:51.639 --> 00:35:53.559
<v Speaker 7>does he doing, you know, catching route, you know, running

787
00:35:53.599 --> 00:35:58.880
<v Speaker 7>his routes, catching balls in all different aspects. Now doesn't

788
00:35:58.880 --> 00:36:00.400
<v Speaker 7>mean he's gonna go out and play the same reps

789
00:36:00.440 --> 00:36:03.760
<v Speaker 7>he might play in two to three weeks. But he's available,

790
00:36:04.840 --> 00:36:07.559
<v Speaker 7>you know, not this week obviously, but the next week.

791
00:36:07.840 --> 00:36:09.800
<v Speaker 7>You know, a lot of time is available. Can we

792
00:36:09.800 --> 00:36:11.320
<v Speaker 7>get him out there and run some routes? Can we

793
00:36:11.360 --> 00:36:14.119
<v Speaker 7>get him out there and get him involved in the offense.

794
00:36:14.159 --> 00:36:15.039
<v Speaker 7>But maybe he's not going.

795
00:36:15.039 --> 00:36:18.000
<v Speaker 4>To get as many reps as the guys who've been

796
00:36:18.039 --> 00:36:21.119
<v Speaker 4>playing right now, so you know, you never know.

797
00:36:21.559 --> 00:36:24.440
<v Speaker 7>But yeah, he's he's definitely gonna be in a conservative approach,

798
00:36:24.480 --> 00:36:28.679
<v Speaker 7>I would suspect, you know, and just if all everything

799
00:36:28.679 --> 00:36:32.280
<v Speaker 7>else is checking the boxes, then yeah we're not. We'll

800
00:36:32.280 --> 00:36:33.599
<v Speaker 7>wait and see how he does when he gets to

801
00:36:33.679 --> 00:36:33.960
<v Speaker 7>the game.

802
00:36:34.679 --> 00:36:38.280
<v Speaker 2>About thirteen days ago exactly, almost Donald Cheney, a running

803
00:36:38.280 --> 00:36:41.039
<v Speaker 2>back for Louisville who transferred him from Miami, he suffered

804
00:36:41.159 --> 00:36:43.760
<v Speaker 2>what was described as a high ankle sprain, the dreaded

805
00:36:43.800 --> 00:36:46.159
<v Speaker 2>high ankle sprain, And I know the recovery from that's

806
00:36:46.159 --> 00:36:49.000
<v Speaker 2>probably different, just depending upon you know, the player and whatnot.

807
00:36:49.039 --> 00:36:51.079
<v Speaker 2>But as a running back, what do you think the

808
00:36:51.159 --> 00:36:53.239
<v Speaker 2>last thirteen days have been like for him as they

809
00:36:53.320 --> 00:36:55.039
<v Speaker 2>try to get him healthy. I mean, I would imagine

810
00:36:55.039 --> 00:36:57.039
<v Speaker 2>he's probably been off his feet. He's a guy that

811
00:36:57.079 --> 00:36:58.840
<v Speaker 2>they know what he can do. He's a veteran, a

812
00:36:58.880 --> 00:37:00.679
<v Speaker 2>guy who's played a lot of football before he arrived

813
00:37:00.719 --> 00:37:03.239
<v Speaker 2>at Louisville. Is it is it probably just taking it

814
00:37:03.280 --> 00:37:06.119
<v Speaker 2>easy and then doing some some some measurements in some way,

815
00:37:06.239 --> 00:37:08.000
<v Speaker 2>some former fashion to kind of see if he's got

816
00:37:08.119 --> 00:37:10.519
<v Speaker 2>enough he's got enough enough strength to play through it.

817
00:37:12.239 --> 00:37:14.800
<v Speaker 7>That's a great question, Nick, honestly, because you know, I

818
00:37:14.840 --> 00:37:15.880
<v Speaker 7>get these things all the time.

819
00:37:15.920 --> 00:37:17.360
<v Speaker 4>I get these questions from patients.

820
00:37:17.400 --> 00:37:21.039
<v Speaker 7>You know, differences in ankle sprains, even lateral ankle sprains,

821
00:37:21.079 --> 00:37:24.199
<v Speaker 7>you know, they're all it all depends on how.

822
00:37:24.039 --> 00:37:27.000
<v Speaker 4>The athlete presents. And in a high ankle sprain situation,

823
00:37:27.519 --> 00:37:30.519
<v Speaker 4>it's even that much more so if he's unstable.

824
00:37:30.559 --> 00:37:32.880
<v Speaker 7>If it's an unstable injury, a lot of times that

825
00:37:32.960 --> 00:37:35.880
<v Speaker 7>takes uh, some kind of a surgery to stabilize it,

826
00:37:35.960 --> 00:37:37.480
<v Speaker 7>especially to speed the recovery up.

827
00:37:38.159 --> 00:37:42.039
<v Speaker 2>Uh, Is that rare though the surgery required?

828
00:37:43.840 --> 00:37:44.199
<v Speaker 1>Not not.

829
00:37:44.320 --> 00:37:46.960
<v Speaker 4>I wouldn't say it's rare. It's not the most common

830
00:37:46.960 --> 00:37:47.920
<v Speaker 4>way he would be treated.

831
00:37:48.239 --> 00:37:51.639
<v Speaker 7>I know that to had this in college, everybody remembers

832
00:37:51.679 --> 00:37:54.199
<v Speaker 7>because they used a new procedure which is becoming more

833
00:37:54.239 --> 00:37:58.159
<v Speaker 7>and more of the gold standard, where the recovery time

834
00:37:58.239 --> 00:37:59.840
<v Speaker 7>is a lot quicker on how they can go in

835
00:37:59.840 --> 00:38:02.559
<v Speaker 7>and stabilized that the bones.

836
00:38:03.000 --> 00:38:05.719
<v Speaker 4>But you know, it all depends on how stable it is.

837
00:38:05.719 --> 00:38:08.440
<v Speaker 7>If it's pretty stable and otherwise just painful and swollen.

838
00:38:09.039 --> 00:38:10.679
<v Speaker 4>Uh, I mean he's getting at it.

839
00:38:11.360 --> 00:38:13.920
<v Speaker 7>That first thirteen days is aggressive, like we're gonna get

840
00:38:13.920 --> 00:38:16.199
<v Speaker 7>the swelling out, We're gonna get the motion back, We're

841
00:38:16.199 --> 00:38:19.920
<v Speaker 7>gonna start, you know, getting the muscle function back. So

842
00:38:20.039 --> 00:38:23.599
<v Speaker 7>while making sure that you know, early aggressive treatment.

843
00:38:23.679 --> 00:38:25.440
<v Speaker 4>The days of putting people in boots.

844
00:38:25.480 --> 00:38:27.119
<v Speaker 7>Now college kid, I'm gonna put them in a boot

845
00:38:27.440 --> 00:38:29.719
<v Speaker 7>around campus because I don't want something dumb to happen

846
00:38:29.760 --> 00:38:32.880
<v Speaker 7>to them. But but it's putting people in boots and

847
00:38:32.920 --> 00:38:33.360
<v Speaker 7>them just.

848
00:38:33.400 --> 00:38:35.760
<v Speaker 4>Resting that that doesn't work.

849
00:38:36.039 --> 00:38:39.599
<v Speaker 7>Uh So, yeah, they're that staff is obviously you know,

850
00:38:39.639 --> 00:38:44.960
<v Speaker 7>inflammation control, you know, get that down the quick as

851
00:38:45.000 --> 00:38:47.000
<v Speaker 7>you can, and then getting the function back in the

852
00:38:47.039 --> 00:38:49.159
<v Speaker 7>ankle as fast as you can. So that way, you know,

853
00:38:49.519 --> 00:38:52.119
<v Speaker 7>we're closing that gap between injury and return to play,

854
00:38:52.599 --> 00:38:53.599
<v Speaker 7>especially in season.

855
00:38:53.960 --> 00:38:54.519
<v Speaker 4>You know, you just.

856
00:38:54.440 --> 00:38:57.559
<v Speaker 7>Don't have time to you know, and you gotta be aggressive, right,

857
00:38:58.239 --> 00:38:59.320
<v Speaker 7>you have to be aggressive.

858
00:38:59.599 --> 00:39:01.639
<v Speaker 2>You have totally You're going to.

859
00:39:01.679 --> 00:39:04.119
<v Speaker 4>Keep the safety of the athlete at the forefront.

860
00:39:04.559 --> 00:39:07.880
<v Speaker 7>But you know that's why you have highly trained staff

861
00:39:07.960 --> 00:39:11.079
<v Speaker 7>who understands that, but our job is to get the

862
00:39:11.079 --> 00:39:13.239
<v Speaker 7>athlete back on the field and and to do it

863
00:39:13.320 --> 00:39:15.599
<v Speaker 7>and the way that they're the most effective, and they're

864
00:39:15.920 --> 00:39:17.000
<v Speaker 7>obviously they're safe.

865
00:39:18.000 --> 00:39:20.960
<v Speaker 2>So when it comes to the you know, hearing of

866
00:39:20.960 --> 00:39:24.039
<v Speaker 2>of an athlete needing surgery, I could be totally off here,

867
00:39:24.039 --> 00:39:26.400
<v Speaker 2>But when you broke into the industry and you carved

868
00:39:26.400 --> 00:39:29.320
<v Speaker 2>at your career here and what you're doing, was the

869
00:39:29.320 --> 00:39:31.559
<v Speaker 2>word surgery brought up for an athlete? Is it now

870
00:39:31.760 --> 00:39:33.639
<v Speaker 2>viewed not as severe? Like if you could have a

871
00:39:33.639 --> 00:39:37.800
<v Speaker 2>surgery that could be relatively minor and be back relatively quickly.

872
00:39:37.840 --> 00:39:39.360
<v Speaker 2>And I know it all depends on what the injury

873
00:39:39.400 --> 00:39:40.920
<v Speaker 2>is and what the severity of it is. But I

874
00:39:41.159 --> 00:39:43.239
<v Speaker 2>feel like long ago, when you would hear that an

875
00:39:43.239 --> 00:39:45.639
<v Speaker 2>athlete needed surgery, you would just expect not to see

876
00:39:45.639 --> 00:39:47.400
<v Speaker 2>that guy for a really, really long time. And now

877
00:39:47.440 --> 00:39:49.119
<v Speaker 2>I feel like that's that's no longer the case.

878
00:39:51.280 --> 00:39:53.599
<v Speaker 4>Absolutely, And I was talking about this. Have an athlete

879
00:39:53.599 --> 00:39:53.920
<v Speaker 4>in there.

880
00:39:54.199 --> 00:39:59.159
<v Speaker 7>She's a local soccer player, high level UH big with

881
00:39:59.559 --> 00:40:02.280
<v Speaker 7>went to Withisconsin Big Wisconsin fan and everybody saw or

882
00:40:02.320 --> 00:40:05.840
<v Speaker 7>if they watched the Alabama Wisconsin game at four quarterback,

883
00:40:06.000 --> 00:40:06.360
<v Speaker 7>you know.

884
00:40:06.719 --> 00:40:10.880
<v Speaker 4>Towards acl non contact first series of the game, and

885
00:40:11.840 --> 00:40:14.159
<v Speaker 4>you know, it sucks. I mean, it does.

886
00:40:14.559 --> 00:40:16.559
<v Speaker 7>But what I did bring up, you know, used to

887
00:40:16.559 --> 00:40:19.039
<v Speaker 7>be that was a red flag, right like, oh no,

888
00:40:19.199 --> 00:40:22.039
<v Speaker 7>that kid's career is a jeopardy or you know.

889
00:40:22.480 --> 00:40:24.360
<v Speaker 4>And but now you know.

890
00:40:24.320 --> 00:40:27.039
<v Speaker 7>With with surgical techniques being so much more advanced, with

891
00:40:27.079 --> 00:40:29.119
<v Speaker 7>the rehab techniques and what we know on a rehab

892
00:40:29.159 --> 00:40:32.079
<v Speaker 7>side as far as how aggressive we can be and

893
00:40:32.360 --> 00:40:35.719
<v Speaker 7>early on in the recovery period from surgery, you know

894
00:40:36.119 --> 00:40:39.039
<v Speaker 7>that that's not the case anymore. It's kind of like, yeah,

895
00:40:39.280 --> 00:40:41.440
<v Speaker 7>you know, it's unfortunate, he's gonna miss the season.

896
00:40:41.719 --> 00:40:44.199
<v Speaker 4>That sucks, but his career doesn't necessarily have to be over.

897
00:40:44.480 --> 00:40:46.320
<v Speaker 7>You know, he he could come back and be eat

898
00:40:46.400 --> 00:40:49.280
<v Speaker 7>or she could come back is as effective, if not

899
00:40:49.320 --> 00:40:52.639
<v Speaker 7>more effective after the injury and continue to have a

900
00:40:52.679 --> 00:40:55.239
<v Speaker 7>successful career. If that's the path that you know they're

901
00:40:55.280 --> 00:40:59.519
<v Speaker 7>able to take. And so you know, with those advances

902
00:40:59.559 --> 00:41:03.000
<v Speaker 7>and those different in surgeries and treatments and re you know,

903
00:41:03.039 --> 00:41:07.920
<v Speaker 7>in different other conservative measures and preventative techniques, you know,

904
00:41:07.960 --> 00:41:10.519
<v Speaker 7>they're they're a lot better off going into surgery than

905
00:41:10.559 --> 00:41:13.519
<v Speaker 7>they once were. You know, those things have made a

906
00:41:13.639 --> 00:41:17.480
<v Speaker 7>huge impact on recovery times and ability.

907
00:41:17.119 --> 00:41:19.639
<v Speaker 4>To get back in season or or what would have

908
00:41:19.719 --> 00:41:22.880
<v Speaker 4>been a season and a half is now, you know,

909
00:41:23.079 --> 00:41:23.960
<v Speaker 4>a six month.

910
00:41:23.800 --> 00:41:26.039
<v Speaker 7>Recovery or seven month recovery, so they're at least not

911
00:41:26.440 --> 00:41:29.519
<v Speaker 7>missing back to back seasons or significant time.

912
00:41:30.519 --> 00:41:32.480
<v Speaker 2>All right, rapid fire. Last question before we get you

913
00:41:32.519 --> 00:41:34.280
<v Speaker 2>out of here. At the top of the hour, let's

914
00:41:34.280 --> 00:41:36.280
<v Speaker 2>say Bourbon and beyond, you could only see one of

915
00:41:36.320 --> 00:41:40.719
<v Speaker 2>the headliners sting Dave Matthews Band, Zach Bryan or Tyler Childers.

916
00:41:40.840 --> 00:41:43.840

917
00:41:43.920 --> 00:41:46.360
<v Speaker 7>Well, first, I would narrow it down between Zach Brian

918
00:41:46.440 --> 00:41:47.559
<v Speaker 7>and Tyler Childers.

919
00:41:48.039 --> 00:41:50.960

920
00:41:51.320 --> 00:41:53.880
<v Speaker 4>you know, in a fifty to fifty I would err on.

921
00:41:53.840 --> 00:41:55.320
<v Speaker 7>The side of the local guy and go with the

922
00:41:55.400 --> 00:41:58.440
<v Speaker 7>Kentucky Well, yeah, Zach Bryant's not from Kentucky.
