[SPEAKER_08]: What do you mean an old timey baseball? [SPEAKER_07]: We'll have to get the details from him. [SPEAKER_07]: But I got the impression that it's in a vintage stadium and you might see players with handlebar moustaches and like a skit. [SPEAKER_07]: Maybe, yeah, I don't know exactly how to find out what he'll explain when he comes back. [SPEAKER_07]: He will, but I mean, you have to give me this. [SPEAKER_07]: I didn't care enough to really get a lot of details. [SPEAKER_08]: Yeah, but you speak that. [SPEAKER_08]: I'm going to. [SPEAKER_08]: You care enough to be content. [SPEAKER_07]: We text it. [SPEAKER_08]: Well, he has to tell you the things to do to get the show ready, right? [SPEAKER_08]: Is that it? [SPEAKER_08]: Yeah, we'll touch it. [SPEAKER_07]: Based on a few things. [SPEAKER_07]: Yeah. [SPEAKER_07]: Yes, so he's at the old time. [SPEAKER_07]: He based both game in tonight. [SPEAKER_07]: They'll be back at Comerica Park and then tomorrow back show note. [SPEAKER_07]: Remember, we're starting at 4 p.m. tomorrow because Josh is traveling. [SPEAKER_07]: Josh is traveling. [SPEAKER_07]: And I have a, I have a doctor appointment. [SPEAKER_07]: I got to be the doctor. [SPEAKER_07]: All right. [SPEAKER_08]: Yeah. [SPEAKER_08]: And no word from the slot influence are yet, right? [SPEAKER_08]: That you've heard about, you know? [SPEAKER_07]: No, he would have passed that along to me. [SPEAKER_08]: Okay, so you've lived this and you're not, it's great because you're on the outside looking in now with this. [SPEAKER_08]: Do you remember how excited I got when Josh said that we'd have that influence are on? [SPEAKER_08]: And then I latch onto it and I get excited. [SPEAKER_07]: And he won more week to you, I think twice. [SPEAKER_07]: Which is, you know, when he says, [SPEAKER_07]: But we'll have him next week. [SPEAKER_07]: So, and that's the one more week is, that's how you look at this. [SPEAKER_08]: What would the process be? [SPEAKER_08]: Don't even say anything unless they're locked up. [SPEAKER_08]: And by the way, if I'm, this show is so far away from major market morning radio, when we used to have, right, like, stars come by and, what are you doing? [SPEAKER_08]: Wait, hold on, my son just walked in. [SPEAKER_07]: What? [SPEAKER_07]: Sure. [SPEAKER_08]: you made over a hundred dollars cleaning trash cans. [SPEAKER_07]: My son's got a trash bin power washing business that he's doing that's a great, you know, my mom was bomoning the dirtiness of her trash bin just last night. [SPEAKER_07]: I'm reaching over to Ashburn. [SPEAKER_08]: You're fantastic. [SPEAKER_08]: Love you. [SPEAKER_08]: Take care. [SPEAKER_07]: You know what? [SPEAKER_07]: You know how he could really do it to the next level as if he steam cleaned them. [SPEAKER_08]: Why are you looking at what's that? [SPEAKER_08]: Why are you looking at me like that? [SPEAKER_08]: What's the matter? [SPEAKER_08]: Your mother's here. [SPEAKER_08]: Just get away from me. [SPEAKER_08]: I'm sorry. [SPEAKER_08]: I apologize for that. [SPEAKER_07]: But no. [SPEAKER_07]: That's the way to do it. [SPEAKER_07]: All right. [SPEAKER_07]: I just powerfully. [SPEAKER_08]: I pull into the neighborhood and come down to the driveway. [SPEAKER_08]: And I see. [SPEAKER_08]: You know, he's still got the blonde hair that he died for the Basrel tournament and David's in like look. [SPEAKER_07]: Yeah. [SPEAKER_08]: He's on his ebike and he's dragging a barrel behind it with big grin on his face, and I I mean if that's not right if that's not just that's pretty the way you want to come home, you know, and it's summertime and he's doing You know, he's making money with his buddy Nick and their little entrepreneurs and I just filled with love for him. [SPEAKER_07]: I, you know, having spent extended periods of time with Michael, he's my godson. [SPEAKER_07]: I love him very much, and I like his personality. [SPEAKER_07]: My guess is that he was abandoned by his other godfather. [SPEAKER_07]: Oh, you mean the one who never gave him a Bible, that one? [SPEAKER_07]: traditional gift at a Christmas day. [SPEAKER_08]: When it's just the two of us, I feel like I can let's be a good. [SPEAKER_08]: Oh God. [SPEAKER_07]: I will back that up though. [SPEAKER_08]: No, he's good kid. [SPEAKER_08]: He's good kid. [SPEAKER_08]: He's a lot of fun. [SPEAKER_07]: But I do, I like him. [SPEAKER_07]: And do you think that when he is Nick, is he the only partner in this business? [SPEAKER_07]: Yeah. [SPEAKER_07]: Yeah, they do it over and over again. [SPEAKER_08]: They do it here. [SPEAKER_08]: And Nick's the one that came on the cruise with us too. [SPEAKER_07]: I'm guessing that Michael might be the senior partner in this organization. [SPEAKER_07]: I do. [SPEAKER_08]: I organize the next the youngest of three brothers, a big baseball family and they I think he's just having his best summer getting away from the two older brothers and hanging out with Michael. [SPEAKER_08]: How much older are the brothers? [SPEAKER_08]: I can't tell you exactly. [SPEAKER_07]: I know one's to really make his life a living hell. [SPEAKER_08]: Uh, yeah. [SPEAKER_08]: Absolutely. [SPEAKER_08]: Yeah. [SPEAKER_08]: I mean, but I don't know if I don't even know if they do that. [SPEAKER_08]: They're chill. [SPEAKER_08]: They're a chill family. [SPEAKER_08]: Very cool family. [SPEAKER_08]: And that's why we're like having Nick around because it's not, uh, I based, uh, I based all of my sons, uh, like sleepovers and whether I want the kids to come back, uh, on the, on the needy scale. [SPEAKER_08]: And Nick falls very low on the needy scale. [SPEAKER_08]: He is just, [SPEAKER_08]: you know they make their own fun and my son's like that and that's why he gets invited back because uh there are other kids uh you know we're you know they'll come around the computer on there and it's like you know I'm like and I'm very polite I go what yeah [SPEAKER_08]: Well, I think what do you need? [SPEAKER_07]: What do you need now, you know, if you want a textbook definition of a needy child I have to cite who is really a great pertinent to a wonderful grown-up to bro. [SPEAKER_07]: But my cut. [SPEAKER_07]: No, Mike, I don't I'm in touch with a drill on the Instagram, but I've not spoken to him in quite some time. [SPEAKER_08]: Yeah, it's like old old news. [SPEAKER_07]: My cousin Casey, when she was four or five, one time, came into the living room with the grown-ups, plopped it down, we looked at her and she said, I want something. [SPEAKER_07]: And that's all she said, because I had to be honest, Mike, it was, I want some pin, you know, because they're kids and they just, and there are some kids that want to be entertained. [SPEAKER_08]: I know. [SPEAKER_07]: And I think if you're in a large family like Nick, you're probably, you're forced to make your own joy. [SPEAKER_07]: Yeah, sometimes. [SPEAKER_07]: Because there's lots of fun on it. [SPEAKER_08]: But it's, you know, the kids that are just, [SPEAKER_08]: You know how it was when you're someone's young kids that make your kid a better kid. [SPEAKER_08]: That's that's just the way it goes. [SPEAKER_07]: And like it doesn't change when they're 23 either. [SPEAKER_07]: There's still kids that make them a better kid and there's still ones that I rather not hang out with. [SPEAKER_07]: Yeah, it's just the way it is. [SPEAKER_08]: And you have to be more the older they get the more vigilant about that. [SPEAKER_08]: That's, you know, and you can be also, you can be less polite to you, but you've still got one living in the house now, right? [SPEAKER_07]: Yeah, Robert, but he starts teaching like August 17th and his, [SPEAKER_07]: primary motivation right now is to get out of the house. [SPEAKER_07]: He wants to move out. [SPEAKER_08]: So he realizes that he wants to get out of Dodge. [SPEAKER_08]: You froze up a little bit there. [SPEAKER_08]: Yeah, he verbalizes that he wants to be out on his own. [SPEAKER_08]: What's his game plan? [SPEAKER_08]: Is he goin
