by. Grainger. For the
0:37
ones who get it done. Sometimes
0:42
I just can't tell what's happening. Are
0:45
we doing cold open? That was a
0:47
cold open. Welcome
0:58
to Oddball. I'm Amino Hasendat. Over
1:01
there is Charlotte Wilder in her
1:03
alternate location. We got a lot
1:05
of fun to get to today. Hey, this is what we're
1:07
going to talk about. We're going to talk about the Clippers.
1:10
Are they still soft? Also, Michael
1:12
Porter Jr. has come out and stood up
1:15
for his brother. Family
1:17
ties. We'll hear what he
1:19
had to say. Also, Wizards,
1:23
maybe they're going to stay in Washington
1:25
after all. There's a lot of politics,
1:27
man. It's amazing what
1:29
a little taxpayer money will do for a person.
1:33
Plus, Kelly Oubre doing his
1:36
best habbaked impersonation. Except
1:39
he didn't call anybody cool. We'll explain
1:41
a little bit on that, but let's
1:43
start with this guy, Draymond Green, man.
1:47
Charlotte, he got ejected again.
1:50
He got ejected in the first quarter
1:52
again, the only player in the last
1:54
20 seasons to
1:57
get ejected twice in the first quarter of the
1:59
same season. These it. Is.
2:01
Nineteen career ejection was places
2:04
him. Second, Placed my only
2:06
Rasheed Wallace. He was arguing the
2:08
gall with a rare cause. The
2:10
there for soon. Man.
2:12
Just wouldn't stop. And then
2:15
he got a deal. got the heave ho. Driving
2:18
Steph Curry to an
2:20
emotional brink. Perhaps. I really
2:22
think he was crying and I don't
2:24
blame him because stray mind is arguing
2:26
a call on steps be asks and
2:29
staff is like he's shaking his head
2:31
as three months doing it's keep pushing
2:33
dream underwear the back of his hand.
2:35
He's like that streamline keeps go. It
2:37
honestly mean it looked to me like
2:40
Draymond was trying to get ejected because
2:42
the rest didn't toss him. At. First. He
2:45
taught him one tray mind. Get.
2:47
Going and and mouthed what what
2:49
looks to be i'm. Not.
2:52
The same reist. Of things to
2:54
call a person So hands.
2:57
Wet. Boozer Golly gee will reduce. The
3:00
as he does college you
3:02
workers which rests famously hate
3:04
on. And images walk
3:06
to the locker room. mate a either side
3:08
at the as at some point he sort
3:10
of run out of things to say. Er
3:13
den his passengers who
3:15
moving on the line
3:17
between controlled rage and
3:19
just. Absolute Implosion. That's
3:22
gonna what makes them special woods or
3:24
midsummer great competitor. A mix of a
3:26
very defensive player or just amo be
3:28
honest with you, I don't understand.
3:31
How is he had that mad four minutes into the.
3:34
Like usually it's an accumulation of was almost I
3:36
would observe a lot has been. Oh no your
3:38
life is no part of him as his life.
3:41
That. Cause Melissa's keep going. This game is
3:43
still the game. The night is young.
3:46
Know version of that. And. That's
3:48
why it seems to me like it's
3:50
almost as he. He's like a powder
3:53
keg. It's like there's something that I
3:55
don't want to psychoanalyze from afar. But
3:57
if I were to, it feels like
3:59
there's some. About the end of as
4:01
this is dynasty of this career cause they
4:03
are much closer to the and in the
4:06
beginning that you know that their keys on
4:08
the edge in a way he used to
4:10
be on the edge in a way where
4:12
it was like great This is healing your
4:14
game and this is getting your teammates rest
4:17
up but now he's on the edge In
4:19
a way where it feels like he is,
4:21
he's tipping into selfishness as as evidenced. By
4:23
Curry's react to this is one
4:26
of those things were given the
4:28
time. Exhaust the and is
4:30
no part of this that so long time ago
4:32
that. As a me on
4:34
as auto good and by the way
4:36
post game speakers that he deserved a
4:38
good a jerk. Goods like there was
4:40
no part of any with anybody for
4:42
the worse dolls and that was like
4:44
well you know, conciliatory or even defending
4:46
him It was as good as as
4:48
other games I'd like. that was his
4:50
yelled at him as you said says
4:52
Ryazan and stuff about like. Know.
4:54
Whole night. Was he himself
4:57
was on an emotional ads you
4:59
see when he that shot but
5:01
no I'm a conference are over
5:03
June so wait is by by
5:05
celebration was there was a slightly
5:07
in Hangzhou know that that the
5:09
that night November's news so it's
5:11
almost got like six games and
5:13
then ah yes augmented events and
5:15
are sincere. When he
5:17
wears his this is there's an
5:19
emotional kind of. Frustration.
5:22
As boiling over for. That's
5:24
exactly the word I was getting. His Mean:
5:26
when I saw him crying or what appeared
5:28
to be crying I was like I completely
5:30
at and I get that like. That
5:32
yet the dislike the got into his
5:34
eyes like that that such as that.
5:36
Such a human reaction when you're frustrated
5:39
when you been dealing with the same
5:41
thing not just with the season button
5:43
in some ways for for years. And
5:45
what was interesting to me that stance
5:47
is always been so good about not.
5:50
Betraying. Any emotion when it comes to dream
5:52
on like. To him on gets ejected Steps
5:54
like okay back to work This is the
5:56
first time. That I had
5:58
seen. Staff not hub. be able
6:00
to even with his body language like stand
6:03
up for his teammate. Charlotte,
6:06
have you ever exited
6:10
a place of employment or
6:12
any other work event by
6:15
just outright just on
6:18
multiple people there in their face letting them
6:20
know how you really feel? Yeah,
6:23
actually. You have? Yeah,
6:25
I was 21 and I was
6:28
working at the summer camp and the board was
6:30
this group of like old white dudes
6:32
who were being really who just
6:35
were like obnoxious to my staff and
6:37
so I asked them a meeting at the end of
6:39
the summer and we all sat down in a
6:41
circle and they started telling me why
6:43
I was wrong and I tried to talk and one
6:45
of them like hit a gavel on the side
6:47
of his chair and said, I motion we don't
6:49
listen to Charlotte anymore and I stood up and
6:52
I was like, you are all
6:54
I can't even remember
6:56
what I said because I was in a rage blackout but
6:58
my chair tipped over and I went one by one
7:01
and then I walked out and
7:03
called my dad and I was like, I don't
7:07
know if we can go back
7:09
to the Rockport Bow Club anymore.
7:12
It felt awesome. Wow. That's
7:15
pretty cool. I believe it or not, I've never done that.
7:17
I have not done that since I was 21 but
7:19
it was a rush and so I understand
7:22
what Kelly you pray junior was doing last night.
7:25
He was upset about a couple of
7:27
no calls at the end of the
7:29
game. One of them was
7:31
led to a jump ball where he drove
7:33
fast. Quiet Leonard and quiet Leonard rode him
7:36
with his offhand in his lower back
7:38
and then pinned the
7:40
ball in a wedgey shout out
7:42
to no dunks right there.
7:44
The ball got stuck. It was a jump ball. Quiet
7:48
Leonard was pushing him with his left hand
7:50
in his lower hip the whole time. Then
7:52
the second call as he
7:54
drove past James Harden and rose up, I
7:57
believe it was Paul George who tried to maintain verticality.
8:00
and got a lot of contact, which after
8:02
the game, the refs said probably should have
8:04
been called a foul. We're
8:06
waiting on that last two-minute report. Yes, that's
8:08
a cool-ass story, Charlotte. Now, I've never had
8:10
that happen. The closest I had was my
8:13
last year when I was with the Suns.
8:15
I was miserable. I was like, I can't wait
8:18
to get out of here, right? But
8:20
I kept waiting. I kept playing Powerball because I
8:22
was like, this is what I need to happen.
8:25
I need to win Powerball, and I swear to God,
8:27
this was going to be my plan. My
8:29
plan was I was going to
8:32
hire Usher. I was going to
8:34
win Powerball, and I was going to hire... I was going to go
8:36
to Usher and said, I don't care
8:38
how much it costs. I need
8:40
you to fly in,
8:43
bring with you like a little marching band
8:45
or whatever, march into the
8:48
offices. I will scan you in, go to
8:50
my boss's office, and I need you to
8:52
sing, I quit. Hit
8:55
high notes, have the drummer do
8:57
the drums and stuff, and then I would walk in and
8:59
I'd be like, and then
9:01
I would leave. That was my dream, and
9:04
if anyone wins Powerball, wants to quit their
9:06
job, if you want to do that, absolutely
9:08
go ahead. Just remember, shut your boy out.
9:10
Just say, hey, I was watching Oddball and
9:12
Amine told Charlotte how he would read
9:15
people their rights on the way out the door
9:17
as he quit a job. I love it. I
9:19
support it wholeheartedly. The amount of planning I devoted
9:22
to that, like figuring
9:24
out who's his businessman.
9:27
How can I get in contact? He was all types of... And
9:30
I was like, the route, I was planning the route, like, okay, I'm
9:32
going to have them park in here and they're going to park
9:34
on the fourth level because then they don't have to take an elevator. They
9:36
can just go right up. I
9:38
had this whole thing mapped out. The
9:42
route they would take inside the building to the maximum
9:44
number of people in cubicles, it was like, is that
9:46
Usher? And they would get up and follow and see.
9:49
Man, dare to dream. All
9:51
right. I
9:54
mean, we've got an update on the bedding
9:57
situation scandal. John
10:00
T. Porter is in a little
10:03
bit of trouble. He's under
10:05
investigation for betting irregularities. And
10:07
his very famous and very
10:09
rich brother, Michael Porter Jr.,
10:12
of the world champion Denver
10:14
Nuggets came out in defense
10:17
of his brother. He said, I've known my
10:19
brother my whole life, as most people who are
10:21
brothers are often want to do. He
10:24
said, I know what type of dude he
10:26
is, and I know he's excited to play
10:28
basketball. And I highly doubt he would do
10:30
anything to put that in jeopardy. I'm
10:33
gonna be honest with you, man. I
10:36
love the love he shows for his brother. I
10:39
wish he had talked to a PR person first,
10:41
because I highly doubt Lee's
10:43
open like, you know, like, I
10:46
don't think she'd do something like that. Instead of saying,
10:49
my brother would never do something like this. Like it
10:51
was my brother. I'd say, my brother would never do
10:53
something like this. I highly doubt it. And
10:56
I'm like, the only thing worse though, I mean,
10:58
is that what if he did talk to a PR
11:00
person and the PR person was like, it
11:03
is so likely that he did this thing.
11:05
You gotta leave a little room for doubt.
11:08
Then he goes on to say later on in
11:10
that same kind of statement. So
11:13
it's a part of the game now. He's talking about
11:15
gambling. And I think that it's obviously a dangerous habit.
11:17
It's a dangerous vice for all people, for people. You
11:20
know, the love of money is the root of all
11:22
evil. So I think that even though it is a
11:24
thing, we as players just have to accept that we
11:26
get paid a lot of money to play this game.
11:28
And I know these people, these fans, they want us
11:30
to make some money as well. Like
11:34
that's not, that doesn't help your brother right
11:36
there. It's like, money's the root of all
11:38
evil. It happens all the time and it's
11:40
everywhere. And it's a dangerous thing for people.
11:43
But wait, hold on. It's always
11:45
be like, yo, these things are separate. We don't
11:47
get affected by it. Like, I don't know. He
11:50
lost the plot. He lost the plot big
11:52
time. He also, he should have, yeah,
11:54
he should have ended it and been like, money
11:56
is the root of all evil. I have
11:59
a lot of it. And thanks for
12:01
listening. I'm a pretty recent guy.
12:04
Honestly, that's what I would do. Look, here's
12:06
the thing. There's nothing
12:08
that he could say that would incriminate him. Right?
12:12
So if I were him, this is Michael Porter. And I'm
12:14
sorry that your family is going through this, but I'm going
12:16
to try to help you out here. Charlotte,
12:18
you be the media. I'm Michael Porter Jr. Ask me
12:20
about my brother involved
12:22
in a gambling allegations. Charlotte
12:25
Wilder here, Metalarc Media. Michael,
12:28
some really tough allegations coming
12:30
out of a recent situation
12:32
involving your brother, Jante, and
12:34
the Toronto Raptors. Do you
12:36
have any comments? It's
12:38
ridiculous. Unfounded. And
12:40
to be honest with you,
12:43
quite frustrating. That the
12:45
league decides to get in bed with gambling. And
12:47
that's fine. I'm okay with that. I love it.
12:50
Obviously, the added money brings
12:52
in more attention and more money for
12:54
everybody in the league. Having
12:57
said that, my brother is not the type of
12:59
guy that does this sort of stuff. He
13:01
has no need to, Charlotte. Why would he do it?
13:04
How? How? How
13:06
would that be a need for him? Have you
13:08
seen my contract? Go ahead. Look
13:11
it up on Spontrack. I'll get
13:13
paid over here. The
13:15
Porta family does not need your
13:18
little, a couple of dimes here and
13:20
there from some shady people in back alleys. I
13:23
was pretending to hold a microphone and then
13:25
I realized I had a real microphone.
13:28
Also, I was at a Spontrack. I
13:31
don't know how. Anyway, great,
13:33
great, great statement. I mean, they
13:35
should listen. I can say,
13:37
look, I guarantee my brother didn't do this. And
13:39
then it comes out, he did it. But I
13:41
was wrong. It's not like, okay, now you're going
13:44
to jail too. No! five

15:03
yours. I mean I've been
15:05
in a betting mood. I want you to read
15:08
these to me and I want to figure out
15:10
where I'm going to put my money. Okay here
15:12
we go. Got two bets. Number one for the
15:14
end of the regular season we'll see another 50-point
15:16
game from a player and we've
15:19
seen 15 of them so far
15:21
this season from 10 different players. Giannis,
15:23
Embiid, Luca, Devin Booker and Tyrese Maxey
15:25
all have multiple 50-plus point games this
15:28
season. The wager are you willing to
15:30
have to walk 50 flights
15:32
of stairs in the L-Sir? If
15:35
you win we're going to purchase a star in the
15:38
galaxy to be named after you because you may not
15:40
be putting up 50 yourself but hey you're a star
15:42
too. If you lose you have to
15:44
do some combination of 50 flights of stairs in the
15:46
L-Sir with a minimum 20 flights up.
15:49
They have to begin and be
15:51
completed within 24 hours and yes
15:54
we're gonna film it. That
15:56
sounds awful. The other bet is the
15:58
Bucks will not finish with the two
16:00
seed in the East. The 10 games remaining, the
16:03
Bucks are two games out of the Knicks for
16:05
the three, two and a half ahead of the
16:07
Cavs in fourth, and four games ahead of the
16:09
Magic in fifth. The remaining schedule for
16:11
the Bucks at Pelicans, at
16:13
Hawks, at Wizards, Grizzlies at
16:15
home, Raptors at home, Knicks at home, Celtics
16:18
at home, Magic at home, at
16:20
OKC, at Orlando. Yikes. Are
16:23
you willing, the wager, to take
16:25
a trip to the Oddball doctor's office? If
16:27
you win, the producers of Oddball will work
16:30
on getting you an honorary doctorate of humane
16:32
letters from a college to be named later.
16:36
Finally, something to make your parents proud. If you
16:38
lose, the Oddball doctor will see you and give
16:40
a full analysis of what ails you and what
16:43
you need to do to get back to being
16:45
the best of you. I feel like
16:47
we're mixing a lot of metaphors there. Charlotte,
16:49
this is a pretty straightforward one for me, not
16:51
even about the bet, it's just about what the
16:53
wager is. Yeah,
16:55
that last one? Yeah, like why would you,
16:58
oh, I got a target after me versus
17:00
having him walk 50 flights. Yeah,
17:04
I also do think that, well,
17:07
I don't know, the end of that Bucks schedule is looking pretty
17:09
tough, though, there is a chance that they,
17:11
but yeah, you know what, let's take the
17:13
last one because I'm not trying to walk 50
17:16
flights of stairs. The Bucks will
17:18
not end up with number two in the
17:20
East, also this will be a great soundbite if they do.
17:27
Alright, Charlotte, update quickly a story that we've
17:29
been following all year long. The
17:31
Wizards now looks like they're going
17:33
to stay in Washington, D.C. They
17:35
signed the letter of intent for
17:38
a $500 million plus renovation of Capital One
17:41
Arena, which again, I don't know why that
17:43
wasn't the thing to begin with, or maybe
17:45
I do, but I'm going to keep, we
17:47
finished talking about the story. The other thing
17:49
is, in Virginia,
17:52
the deal completely collapsed. The
17:54
governor wanted this. He's blaming the
17:56
Democratic-led legislature for doing party politics
17:58
to basically... for
18:00
lack of a better phrase, cock block
18:03
his dreams of this complex in Virginia.
18:05
I'll be perfectly honest, no offense to the
18:07
people of Alexandria, Virginia,
18:09
but I think Washington, D.C. needs
18:11
the Wizards more than Alexandria,
18:13
Virginia does, so I'm glad they're staying.
18:16
I think that they were planning to
18:18
stay in D.C. the whole time. I
18:20
think that the head lance is found
18:23
in Glenn Youngkin a very, very willing
18:25
political collaborator to say, hey, come to
18:27
Virginia. It's really nice outside.
18:32
You'll have beautiful parking that you can charge people $75
18:35
for. We can have
18:37
a hotel that starts at $750 a night. You
18:40
can come here and all of
18:42
the people of Virginia will come to your games,
18:45
which they wouldn't probably. No,
18:47
D.C. needs this. I do. I
18:50
don't love the 500
18:52
million plus for funding.
18:55
But if that's what old
18:57
Ted got out of playing a little political,
19:00
then great.
19:04
I don't think that this has endeared
19:06
him. He was not at Capital One
19:08
recently, but
19:11
they're staying. Yeah. No,
19:13
he definitely did the little, I'll flirt with
19:15
you and get this other person
19:17
jealous and then like, oh, I want to go out
19:19
with you. Like, okay, I guess I'll go out with
19:21
you. The person who I would go out with to
19:23
begin with. You know what it is? The
19:26
90s are back. Like we have this little era of like owners,
19:28
you know what? I'm paying everything 100% out of
19:31
pocket, right? Like that's what Steve Balmer has done.
19:33
That's what the Warriors ownership with Joe Lake over
19:36
Peter Gouver have done. Like it became the thing
19:38
like, hey, we're paying the whole thing out of
19:40
pocket. And here comes Ted Leontz who says, bring
19:42
me the 90s back. We flirt about
19:44
moving. And then someone says, no, no, no.
19:46
Here's taxpayer money. And then we're staying. Meanwhile,
19:49
Oklahoma City is like, I
19:52
see you, my friend. I like the 90s. That's
19:54
the bill. He's like 90s ago. Yeah.
19:57
Oh, you're right. That was a good way to do things.
20:00
Alright, I mean Chandler Parsons
20:03
recently called out Mike Greenberg
20:05
who said that UConn could make
20:07
the NBA playoffs, which, okay.
20:10
Parsons said the best player on UConn wouldn't
20:13
play on the Detroit Pistons right now, which
20:15
is meant as an insult because the Pistons
20:17
are bad. I hate, I get,
20:20
one of my least favorite arguments in sports
20:22
media is could this college team beat this
20:25
professional team? It's my favorite because the answer
20:27
very easily is no. It
20:29
doesn't matter who, the answer is no. There's
20:31
no conversation. Yeah, that's why I like it,
20:33
it's nice and short. But
20:37
would the best player on UConn play on the Detroit
20:39
Pistons right now? That's
20:42
a lot more interesting, right? Because on the
20:44
one hand, for a regular bad team, I
20:46
would say no. And
20:49
to be clear, Mike Greenberg said that
20:51
UConn, because UConn destroyed Northwestern, which is
20:53
I guess his alma mater, he's like,
20:55
that'd make the Eastern Conference playoffs. And
20:57
my response on the Levitar Show was
20:59
that the Wizards would beat them by like
21:01
70. Jordan
21:04
Poole would look like the greatest
21:06
player ever if they played against
21:08
the Wizards. Michael Jordan Poole playing
21:11
against Utah. Pretty much. So
21:13
the question becomes, would
21:16
one of their best players play on one of
21:18
the worst teams in the league? Now
21:20
there's a couple of things. Number one is every
21:23
year, we see the best
21:25
players from college basketball play
21:27
on NBA teams. Isn't
21:29
that called the draft? Exactly.
21:31
The NBA draft. It's this thing that we do every year. I
21:34
don't know channel parties that heard of it. Right
21:36
now, I'm looking at the
21:38
big board on one of
21:41
my favorite websites, tankathon.com. Excellent,
21:44
excellent website, especially for
21:46
everything tank related, right?
21:49
I would imagine. They've got in
21:52
the top two 30 right
21:54
now, they've got two
21:57
UConn players, Saphon Castle as
21:59
a 10. best prospect, Donovan
22:01
Clingan as a 12 best prospect. So already
22:04
we've got two guys there and then you
22:06
go further down. They've got
22:08
50, 57 and 60 are all
22:10
UConn players, right? So they got five players
22:12
in the top 60. Charlotte, remind
22:14
me how many draft picks there are in an NBA draft. There
22:19
you go. So they got five players in the
22:21
top 60. I was like, are you trying to
22:23
trick me? You know I'm not good
22:25
at that. There's no band in the tailpipe, right?
22:28
So five players in the top 60,
22:30
including two were lottery
22:32
level players. Need
22:34
I remind you that the
22:37
Pistons were playing Isaiah Livers and
22:39
Killeen Hayes at
22:41
some point during the season? No,
22:43
I'm just saying those guys are playing
22:45
heavy rotation minutes. So I
22:47
disagree with Chandler Parsons. Yes, they've got at
22:50
least one guy who would play for the
22:52
Pistons. I don't think the Pistons
22:54
would be any good. Maybe that's the
22:56
point, but in terms of
22:58
having NBA caliber players, they objectively
23:01
have NBA caliber players. Not
23:03
only could they play for the
23:05
Pistons, but statistically some of them
23:08
probably have a pretty
23:10
good chance. Yeah. Oh God,
23:12
can you imagine if Detroit just gets like the
23:14
worst lottery pick? Oh my God. Oh,
23:17
you mean like they get somehow get
23:19
bumped all the way down? They're kind
23:21
of guaranteed, given how bad they are.
23:23
They're guaranteed to have at
23:25
least, I want to see the sixth
23:27
pick or the, like there's the
23:30
low, there's a low, there's a floor for how
23:32
you can go. So the
23:35
three worst teams are guaranteed that they can't
23:37
go lower than four. Cause even if a
23:39
bunch of teams jump up, you
23:41
know, like 12, 13 and 14 all jump up. All
23:45
that happens is the three worst teams all
23:47
get pushed down. So the worst team would
23:49
have four. The second worst team would have
23:52
five. The next worst would have six. Right?
23:54
Cause everything, You know, when I found out,
23:56
I mean, when I found out that the NBA draft lottery
23:58
was, is a televised event
24:00
of ping pong balls to decide to pick
24:03
who gets to pick when. I was like
24:06
well I love sports. Well I
24:08
think it's even better. It's not even a televised
24:11
event of the ping pong balls to pick
24:13
who gets picked when. It is
24:15
a televised event of person
24:17
reading the results of the ping pong
24:19
balls that happened behind the scenes that
24:21
were not televised to find out who
24:23
gets to pick when. That's
24:26
next level layering right there.
24:28
Absolutely beautiful. I kind of miss
24:30
it when it was just like right
24:32
there, kind of like the lottery. I
24:35
wish they did that. That was my favorite part.
24:37
It's very satisfying. You know the reason why they
24:39
don't do it that way is because
24:42
the lottery is weighted in such a weird way. There's
24:44
like a thousand ping pong balls and you got certain
24:47
numbers and the way they do
24:49
it is they assign combinations to
24:51
each team. So you've got these
24:53
combinations and that's how you have like a
24:56
hundred chances. How do
24:58
we know that they have a hundred out of
25:00
it? It's not a hundred ping pong balls. It's
25:02
like a hundred different combos. What ends up happening
25:04
a lot is they do
25:07
it and they get all right combo number
25:09
one. All right you're 14. You're whatever. But
25:11
then there
25:13
are combos that come up. It's like oh this team has
25:15
already placed. So I've heard
25:18
stories where a team literally won
25:20
the top three picks.
25:23
They got one, they got two and they got
25:25
three but obviously like once you've already got one,
25:30
we're not going to give you two and
25:32
three also. Your combination gets thrown out and they go back at
25:34
it again. You know what we should do?
25:37
I was just going to say we should get.
25:39
Every year they have media people who are allowed
25:42
to be inside. You can't take a phone. You
25:44
can't take a camera or
25:46
anything. You can only write down pen and
25:48
paper, old school style, what you see and
25:50
then come back and report back out. Charlotte,
25:53
I want you to be the person who
25:55
goes behind the scenes and tells us how
25:57
Willie Wonka's machine works. Oh
26:00
my god, that would be a dream come true.
26:02
I mean, I would also I feel like i'd
26:04
have to practice math before No,
26:07
you know, you just have you just have to you
26:09
have to just do what you already do. Well, which
26:11
is Observe and report. Thank
26:14
you so much. Okay, i'm up for the challenge I'll
26:16
get on it right now Hello,
