00:00:11,444 --> 00:00:12,912

Hello, and welcome to another episode

 

2

00:00:12,912 --> 00:00:14,347

of On the Floor with Wayne and Rob.

 

3

00:00:14,347 --> 00:00:15,548

I'm Wayne Highlander

 

4

00:00:15,548 --> 00:00:17,584

with Bona Adhesives.

 

5

00:00:17,584 --> 00:00:20,520

I'm Rob Johnson with THEE

 

6

00:00:20,520 --> 00:00:22,155

Bona Training.

 

7

00:00:22,155 --> 00:00:25,158

How we doing, Rob?

 

8

00:00:26,292 --> 00:00:27,027

I am, too.

 

9

00:00:27,027 --> 00:00:29,996

It's good to see you, man.

 

10

00:00:29,996 --> 00:00:32,532

Yes.

 

11

00:00:32,532 --> 00:00:33,833

Yeah. Are you?

 

12

00:00:33,833 --> 00:00:35,502

Every day to see you is a good day.

 

13

00:00:35,502 --> 00:00:37,670

You're exactly right.

 

14

00:00:37,670 --> 00:00:39,072

Yeah.

 

15

00:00:39,072 --> 00:00:41,674

We have a special guest today

 

16

00:00:41,674 --> 00:00:43,910

and someone very close to you

 

17

00:00:43,910 --> 00:00:46,746

and we've had on before.

 

18

00:00:46,746 --> 00:00:47,614

We'd love to have him on

 

19

00:00:47,614 --> 00:00:48,448

because we know

 

20

00:00:48,448 --> 00:00:49,516

so much about this industry

 

21

00:00:49,516 --> 00:00:52,252

and his segment of the industry.

 

22

00:00:52,252 --> 00:00:56,222

And before he came on, I have like

 

23

00:00:56,322 --> 00:00:57,090

10 minutes here

 

24

00:00:57,090 --> 00:00:57,824

and I'm sitting here

 

25

00:00:57,824 --> 00:01:00,260

and think about interviewing him.

 

26

00:01:00,260 --> 00:01:03,797

And as I went to air

 

27

00:01:03,797 --> 00:01:06,800

and I said, Is it hard being

 

28

00:01:06,866 --> 00:01:07,700

a hardwood floor,

 

29

00:01:07,700 --> 00:01:09,602

a sport, hardwood flooring contractor?

 

30

00:01:10,870 --> 00:01:12,872

And I said,

 

31

00:01:12,872 --> 00:01:13,573

Well, the job can

 

32

00:01:13,573 --> 00:01:15,041

be demanding many contractors

 

33

00:01:15,041 --> 00:01:15,842

find fulfillment

 

34

00:01:15,842 --> 00:01:17,410

in seeing a transformed space

 

35

00:01:17,410 --> 00:01:18,344

and knowing that their work

 

36

00:01:18,344 --> 00:01:20,346

greatly enhances the esthetics

 

37

00:01:20,346 --> 00:01:21,881

and value of a property.

 

38

00:01:21,881 --> 00:01:23,583

Those who enjoy working with their hands

 

39

00:01:23,583 --> 00:01:25,351

have a passion for craftsmanship,

 

40

00:01:25,351 --> 00:01:27,754

often find the profession rewarding,

 

41

00:01:27,754 --> 00:01:30,256

and they talk about attention to detail,

 

42

00:01:30,256 --> 00:01:32,092

environmental factors and, you know,

 

43

00:01:32,092 --> 00:01:32,792

working with your hands

 

44

00:01:32,792 --> 00:01:33,860

and all bunch of challenges

 

45

00:01:33,860 --> 00:01:34,561

and even other

 

46

00:01:34,561 --> 00:01:36,863

that's pretty damn good, man.

 

47

00:01:36,863 --> 00:01:38,264

Today we have someone who knows

 

48

00:01:38,264 --> 00:01:39,666

a whole lot about sports lawyers,

 

49

00:01:39,666 --> 00:01:40,667

as you do too, Rob.

 

50

00:01:40,667 --> 00:01:42,702

And that's Bill Price.

 

51

00:01:42,702 --> 00:01:44,504

Welcome, Bill.

 

52

00:01:44,504 --> 00:01:47,173

Hello, gentlemen.

 

53

00:01:47,173 --> 00:01:48,007

Very good.

 

54

00:01:48,007 --> 00:01:51,010

Very good.

 

55

00:01:51,845 --> 00:01:52,745

For the benefit.

 

56

00:01:52,745 --> 00:01:54,180

The idea is that anyway, that

 

57

00:01:54,180 --> 00:01:56,349

that may not know you the mean. Robyn.

 

58

00:01:56,349 --> 00:01:58,017

I don't need an introduction

 

59

00:01:58,017 --> 00:01:58,585

there, obviously,

 

60

00:01:58,585 --> 00:01:59,619

but your self

 

61

00:01:59,619 --> 00:02:00,987

might maybe

 

62

00:02:00,987 --> 00:02:01,421

give a little bit

 

63

00:02:01,421 --> 00:02:03,590

about your background and who you are.

 

64

00:02:03,590 --> 00:02:03,890

Bill,

 

65

00:02:05,859 --> 00:02:06,626

Sure, Wayne.

 

66

00:02:06,626 --> 00:02:09,229

So I am Bill Price.

 

67

00:02:09,229 --> 00:02:10,864

I live in Boston, Massachusetts.

 

68

00:02:10,864 --> 00:02:15,034

I am the director of the sport flooring

 

69

00:02:15,034 --> 00:02:16,803

side of bonus business

 

70

00:02:16,803 --> 00:02:19,172

and have been doing that for

 

71

00:02:19,172 --> 00:02:21,407

over 20 years now. I.

 

72

00:02:21,407 --> 00:02:25,411

I just just made it to my 28th,

 

73

00:02:26,312 --> 00:02:29,015

28th year at Bona.

 

74

00:02:29,015 --> 00:02:32,051

So I've been very lucky over the years

 

75

00:02:32,051 --> 00:02:35,054

to have been with Bona and

 

76

00:02:36,156 --> 00:02:37,824

couldn't ask for a better company.

 

77

00:02:37,824 --> 00:02:40,827

It's been it's been fantastic for me,

 

78

00:02:40,827 --> 00:02:44,397

not only for the people that I work

 

79

00:02:44,397 --> 00:02:45,632

with like yourselves,

 

80

00:02:45,632 --> 00:02:47,967

which are just tremendous,

 

81

00:02:47,967 --> 00:02:49,502

but for the customers

 

82

00:02:49,502 --> 00:02:50,837

that that I've worked

 

83

00:02:50,837 --> 00:02:52,338

with over the years.

 

84

00:02:52,338 --> 00:02:54,207

Sports flooring.

 

85

00:02:54,207 --> 00:02:56,643

The different side of the wood

 

86

00:02:56,643 --> 00:02:58,011

flooring business,

 

87

00:02:58,011 --> 00:02:59,412

similar in many ways,

 

88

00:02:59,412 --> 00:03:01,381

but very different

 

89

00:03:01,381 --> 00:03:03,716

in in many ways as well.

 

90

00:03:03,716 --> 00:03:05,652

And the contractors that

 

91

00:03:05,652 --> 00:03:06,486

that I've

 

92

00:03:06,486 --> 00:03:07,620

had the pleasure

 

93

00:03:07,620 --> 00:03:08,555

of working with over

 

94

00:03:08,555 --> 00:03:10,256

the years have just been fantastic

 

95

00:03:10,256 --> 00:03:14,194

and have made my job really, really easy.

 

96

00:03:14,627 --> 00:03:17,463

And I know you think my job's pretty easy

 

97

00:03:17,463 --> 00:03:19,465

anyway, Wayne, but

 

98

00:03:19,465 --> 00:03:22,068

it really has been made easier

 

99

00:03:22,068 --> 00:03:22,936

by working with so

 

100

00:03:27,207 --> 00:03:28,508

It looks like we weren't recording.

 

101

00:03:28,508 --> 00:03:29,676

Do you go ahead and do that,

 

102

00:03:29,676 --> 00:03:32,679

See that again.

 

103

00:03:34,247 --> 00:03:37,050

No, I'm actually, you know, I love it

 

104

00:03:37,050 --> 00:03:38,151

when we have our meetings

 

105

00:03:38,151 --> 00:03:40,086

and you come in to talk about the sports

 

106

00:03:40,086 --> 00:03:41,087

part of the meeting,

 

107

00:03:41,087 --> 00:03:43,323

our you do a great job

 

108

00:03:43,323 --> 00:03:44,224

of presenting number one.

 

109

00:03:44,224 --> 00:03:45,892

But I think it's fascinating

 

110

00:03:45,892 --> 00:03:47,060

your side of the business.

 

111

00:03:47,060 --> 00:03:48,461

And and I love hearing

 

112

00:03:48,461 --> 00:03:49,629

what you guys have going on.

 

113

00:03:49,629 --> 00:03:50,597

There's so many,

 

114

00:03:50,597 --> 00:03:52,365

you know, sports flaws

 

115

00:03:52,365 --> 00:03:53,866

today versus 20 years ago.

 

116

00:03:53,866 --> 00:03:55,201

The whole in a world

 

117

00:03:55,201 --> 00:03:56,336

of things that are going

 

118

00:03:56,336 --> 00:03:57,604

on, it blows my mind

 

119

00:03:57,604 --> 00:03:58,838

what's being done out there, man.

 

120

00:03:58,838 --> 00:04:00,273

It's incredible.

 

121

00:04:00,273 --> 00:04:02,275

So and, you know, you've always been

 

122

00:04:02,275 --> 00:04:02,909

and you can

 

123

00:04:02,909 --> 00:04:04,143

either you can write a book on it.

 

124

00:04:04,143 --> 00:04:04,744

And I mean, you've always

 

125

00:04:04,744 --> 00:04:05,712

been in the forefront

 

126

00:04:05,712 --> 00:04:07,847

as Bono in this part of the industry

 

127

00:04:07,847 --> 00:04:09,349

is a big deal to us, this sports

 

128

00:04:09,349 --> 00:04:10,149

part of our industry.

 

129

00:04:10,149 --> 00:04:12,151

So maybe even talk about

 

130

00:04:12,151 --> 00:04:12,885

some of the challenges

 

131

00:04:12,885 --> 00:04:14,087

that you're seeing out there right now

 

132

00:04:14,087 --> 00:04:15,421

and some changes that are going on.

 

133

00:04:16,389 --> 00:04:16,689

Yeah.

 

134

00:04:16,689 --> 00:04:18,358

Before we go there, though,

 

135

00:04:18,358 --> 00:04:20,093

what are you doing going on?

 

136

00:04:20,093 --> 00:04:23,096

I what? I,

 

137

00:04:23,329 --> 00:04:26,032

I just think is fascinating, man.

 

138

00:04:26,032 --> 00:04:31,337

I I'll I'll I'll.

 

139

00:04:31,337 --> 00:04:33,506

I'll show you after the show.

 

140

00:04:33,506 --> 00:04:36,509

You just you're going to

 

141

00:04:37,277 --> 00:04:38,845

you're going to subscribe to it.

 

142

00:04:38,845 --> 00:04:40,213

going to constantly go to AA,

 

143

00:04:40,213 --> 00:04:41,147

what the hell do they need?

 

144

00:04:41,147 --> 00:04:43,349

You and Ike for Well, they do.

 

145

00:04:43,349 --> 00:04:45,251

That's the thing

 

146

00:04:45,251 --> 00:04:47,553

I, air, everybody.

 

147

00:04:47,553 --> 00:04:50,523

I will never never replace anybody

 

148

00:04:50,523 --> 00:04:51,524

in our before business.

 

149

00:04:51,524 --> 00:04:52,992

I mean, either in sales

 

150

00:04:52,992 --> 00:04:55,028

or especially the guys doing the work.

 

151

00:04:55,028 --> 00:04:58,031

That's one job that I can't touch.

 

152

00:04:58,197 --> 00:05:01,200

I mean,

 

153

00:05:01,200 --> 00:05:03,436

capital A

 

154

00:05:03,436 --> 00:05:05,204

capital I.

 

155

00:05:05,204 --> 00:05:05,705

Yeah,

 

156

00:05:05,705 --> 00:05:08,441

And you have a link to get on to this,

 

157

00:05:08,441 --> 00:05:10,176

Yeah. I'll show you all about it.

 

158

00:05:10,176 --> 00:05:12,045

anything you want in. Rob.

 

159

00:05:13,079 --> 00:05:14,514

Rob is crazy.

 

160

00:05:14,514 --> 00:05:16,149

It's crazy.

 

161

00:05:16,149 --> 00:05:17,450

I'll tell you what it can make

 

162

00:05:17,450 --> 00:05:19,619

you look like

 

163

00:05:19,619 --> 00:05:21,754

you've got a doctor's degree

 

164

00:05:21,754 --> 00:05:24,724

in in anything.

 

165

00:05:26,492 --> 00:05:28,795

But for most people,

 

166

00:05:28,795 --> 00:05:29,262

most people

 

167

00:05:29,262 --> 00:05:32,265

that doctor it before you a doctors.

 

168

00:05:33,433 --> 00:05:34,934

Wayne did a presentation

 

169

00:05:34,934 --> 00:05:37,937

at a meeting that we were at this week,

 

170

00:05:38,137 --> 00:05:41,307

and he does presentations,

 

171

00:05:41,708 --> 00:05:44,477

I mean, extremely well to begin with,

 

172

00:05:44,477 --> 00:05:46,713

but he told us that he was going to

 

173

00:05:46,713 --> 00:05:49,749

you'll go put the presentation into II

 

174

00:05:50,116 --> 00:05:52,318

and fine tune it a little bit,

 

175

00:05:52,318 --> 00:05:53,953

make it sound a little more,

 

176

00:05:53,953 --> 00:05:55,288

more interesting.

 

177

00:05:55,288 --> 00:05:56,422

When he was done

 

178

00:05:56,422 --> 00:05:59,459

doing his air enhanced version of it,

 

179

00:06:00,093 --> 00:06:01,194

I cried a little bit.

 

180

00:06:01,194 --> 00:06:04,197

There were tears

 

181

00:06:12,004 --> 00:06:14,974

yeah.

 

182

00:06:28,388 --> 00:06:29,021

here's what I did.

 

183

00:06:29,021 --> 00:06:29,889

And thank you.

 

184

00:06:29,889 --> 00:06:33,426

I know.

 

185

00:06:33,493 --> 00:06:36,462

Well, here's what I did, Rob.

 

186

00:06:36,462 --> 00:06:38,931

I took, I took my presentation

 

187

00:06:38,931 --> 00:06:40,666

and I put it in air and I said,

 

188

00:06:40,666 --> 00:06:42,668

I said, make this more emotional.

 

189

00:06:42,668 --> 00:06:43,803

And it did.

 

190

00:06:43,803 --> 00:06:46,172

And I said, Make it even more emotional.

 

191

00:06:46,172 --> 00:06:47,340

And it did.

 

192

00:06:47,340 --> 00:06:50,009

And I said, Make it extremely emotional.

 

193

00:06:50,009 --> 00:06:51,978

And then I went perfect.

 

194

00:06:51,978 --> 00:06:53,112

I.

 

195

00:06:53,112 --> 00:06:55,948

I cried during the presentation of it.

 

196

00:06:58,818 --> 00:07:01,821

Yes.

 

197

00:07:02,188 --> 00:07:04,991

And he said

 

198

00:07:04,991 --> 00:07:07,994

to a little bit, Yes, sir.

 

199

00:07:08,294 --> 00:07:09,362

All right.

 

200

00:07:09,362 --> 00:07:10,463

Well, we got a bill here.

 

201

00:07:10,463 --> 00:07:11,264

Let's take advantage

 

202

00:07:11,264 --> 00:07:13,132

of of his knowledge here.

 

203

00:07:13,132 --> 00:07:16,135

Rob.

 

204

00:07:17,804 --> 00:07:20,807

Yeah.

 

205

00:07:24,243 --> 00:07:26,045

is just

 

206

00:07:26,045 --> 00:07:28,981

an industry game changer, so

 

207

00:07:28,981 --> 00:07:30,283

take it away.

 

208

00:07:30,283 --> 00:07:31,451

So, elite. Yeah.

 

209

00:07:31,451 --> 00:07:32,118

I mean,

 

210

00:07:32,118 --> 00:07:33,886

we really

 

211

00:07:33,886 --> 00:07:37,457

over the last year, year and a half,

 

212

00:07:37,457 --> 00:07:41,327

we've we've revamped our sport line

 

213

00:07:41,461 --> 00:07:44,096

and what we're going to market

 

214

00:07:44,096 --> 00:07:45,665

with this year

 

215

00:07:45,665 --> 00:07:46,265

for sport

 

216

00:07:46,265 --> 00:07:47,467

products is going to be

 

217

00:07:47,467 --> 00:07:48,067

a little different

 

218

00:07:48,067 --> 00:07:49,969

than what we've seen in the past.

 

219

00:07:49,969 --> 00:07:52,305

So, you know, the,

 

220

00:07:52,305 --> 00:07:55,875

the products have been enhanced

 

221

00:07:56,175 --> 00:07:57,410

not where they are,

 

222

00:07:57,410 --> 00:07:59,912

but with with good R&D.

 

223

00:07:59,912 --> 00:08:03,382

And we we've got actually got two

 

224

00:08:03,549 --> 00:08:05,418

products that are really going

 

225

00:08:05,418 --> 00:08:08,421

to lead the way into the future for sport

 

226

00:08:08,488 --> 00:08:12,325

Elite is is going to be our flagship

 

227

00:08:12,692 --> 00:08:14,293

product for sport.

 

228

00:08:14,293 --> 00:08:18,531

It's on the same platform as traffic.

 

229

00:08:18,965 --> 00:08:20,633

So in terms of durability,

 

230

00:08:20,633 --> 00:08:22,101

it's there's nothing else

 

231

00:08:22,101 --> 00:08:24,403

like it in the sport world, right now.

 

232

00:08:24,403 --> 00:08:26,138

It is a two part product,

 

233

00:08:26,138 --> 00:08:29,375

but it is the first ICC in a product

 

234

00:08:29,609 --> 00:08:30,676

that is

 

235

00:08:30,676 --> 00:08:31,944

is going to be on the market

 

236

00:08:31,944 --> 00:08:34,947

for sports, for so

 

237

00:08:34,981 --> 00:08:38,417

the elite it it has an activator

 

238

00:08:38,417 --> 00:08:39,652

is what we're calling it.

 

239

00:08:39,652 --> 00:08:40,853

It's a hardware

 

240

00:08:40,853 --> 00:08:43,623

it's you know it's a different product

 

241

00:08:43,623 --> 00:08:45,992

than anything else has been used

 

242

00:08:45,992 --> 00:08:48,261

in the sport world up until now.

 

243

00:08:48,261 --> 00:08:51,497

But what's really exciting, not only do

 

244

00:08:51,497 --> 00:08:52,365

we have a product

 

245

00:08:52,365 --> 00:08:54,767

that is extremely durable and,

 

246

00:08:54,767 --> 00:08:56,769

you know, has a tremendous gloss level

 

247

00:08:56,769 --> 00:08:57,703

and has great gloss,

 

248

00:08:57,703 --> 00:08:59,372

retention, scuff, resistance,

 

249

00:08:59,372 --> 00:09:00,940

all the usual things,

 

250

00:09:00,940 --> 00:09:03,576

but the elite product is

 

251

00:09:03,576 --> 00:09:07,680

was the first MFA approved satin

 

252

00:09:08,648 --> 00:09:10,182

sport floor finish

 

253

00:09:10,182 --> 00:09:11,918

that's available right now.

 

254

00:09:11,918 --> 00:09:13,853

So we have a lead gloss

 

255

00:09:13,853 --> 00:09:16,022

and we have elite satin

 

256

00:09:16,022 --> 00:09:18,724

and you know, we've Boler we've been

 

257

00:09:18,724 --> 00:09:21,727

when working in consulting with the NBA

 

258

00:09:21,928 --> 00:09:24,730

for a while and the NBA has always,

 

259

00:09:24,730 --> 00:09:27,767

I mean for years have been asking for

 

260

00:09:28,067 --> 00:09:29,802

lotion products

 

261

00:09:29,802 --> 00:09:31,370

and for the most part

 

262

00:09:31,370 --> 00:09:32,405

it's been very difficult

 

263

00:09:32,405 --> 00:09:35,508

to provide a low sheen product

 

264

00:09:35,508 --> 00:09:39,245

for a floor that doesn't have some issue

 

265

00:09:39,445 --> 00:09:41,914

with coefficient of friction or slip.

 

266

00:09:41,914 --> 00:09:45,585

So we're at a point now technologically

 

267

00:09:45,585 --> 00:09:50,389

where the elite satin is 100% approved.

 

268

00:09:50,723 --> 00:09:53,426

Has the slip resistance that's needed

 

269

00:09:53,426 --> 00:09:56,963

is already been in use in

 

270

00:09:57,029 --> 00:09:58,397

some high end courts.

 

271

00:09:58,397 --> 00:10:01,067

The NBA is looking at it, evaluating it

 

272

00:10:01,067 --> 00:10:01,834

because eventually

 

273

00:10:01,834 --> 00:10:03,536

they probably want to go

 

274

00:10:03,536 --> 00:10:05,371

to a lower sheen product

 

275

00:10:05,371 --> 00:10:08,674

just because of all of the LED lighting

 

276

00:10:08,674 --> 00:10:10,242

that's in all the arenas now

 

277

00:10:10,242 --> 00:10:13,446

with so many different

 

278

00:10:13,446 --> 00:10:16,449

graphics and and glare

 

279

00:10:16,515 --> 00:10:19,318

that the scores table LED

 

280

00:10:19,318 --> 00:10:21,253

lighting can put off on the floor.

 

281

00:10:21,253 --> 00:10:21,487

I mean,

 

282

00:10:21,487 --> 00:10:21,954

we see it

 

283

00:10:21,954 --> 00:10:24,357

every game you can see on the floor

 

284

00:10:24,357 --> 00:10:25,391

and the reflection

 

285

00:10:25,391 --> 00:10:27,093

that sometimes it's pretty distracting.

 

286

00:10:27,093 --> 00:10:30,162

So college NBA

 

287

00:10:30,162 --> 00:10:30,963

at that level

 

288

00:10:30,963 --> 00:10:31,998

where you know

 

289

00:10:31,998 --> 00:10:33,966

events are televised all the time,

 

290

00:10:33,966 --> 00:10:35,034

the lower sheen product

 

291

00:10:35,034 --> 00:10:36,569

might be a pretty good

 

292

00:10:36,569 --> 00:10:38,337

answer to addressing

 

293

00:10:38,337 --> 00:10:39,839

some of

 

294

00:10:39,839 --> 00:10:40,706

the lighting issues

 

295

00:10:40,706 --> 00:10:42,108

that we see in arenas today.

 

296

00:10:42,108 --> 00:10:45,111

But the elite gloss

 

297

00:10:45,177 --> 00:10:48,447

was in use so far this year.

 

298

00:10:48,447 --> 00:10:50,683

The NBA Cup

 

299

00:10:50,683 --> 00:10:52,385

tournament, the in-season tournament

 

300

00:10:52,385 --> 00:10:53,152

that the

 

301

00:10:53,152 --> 00:10:55,221

the NBA had back in November

 

302

00:10:55,221 --> 00:10:59,191

and December, majority of those courts,

 

303

00:10:59,425 --> 00:11:00,393

they were the courts

 

304

00:11:00,393 --> 00:11:03,095

that were 100% painted.

 

305

00:11:03,095 --> 00:11:05,197

People either love them or you hate them,

 

306

00:11:05,197 --> 00:11:08,267

but they were were very, very unique

 

307

00:11:08,501 --> 00:11:09,301

courts.

 

308

00:11:09,301 --> 00:11:12,605

And and they had a a theme

 

309

00:11:13,239 --> 00:11:17,376

on on the the main design of the court

 

310

00:11:17,810 --> 00:11:20,312

that each team had their own colors

 

311

00:11:20,312 --> 00:11:22,982

and they were funky colors in some cases.

 

312

00:11:22,982 --> 00:11:26,152

But again 30 of these

 

313

00:11:26,552 --> 00:11:29,522

cup courts 100% painted

 

314

00:11:29,522 --> 00:11:32,525

and almost half of those courts

 

315

00:11:32,725 --> 00:11:34,226

were water

 

316

00:11:34,226 --> 00:11:37,363

and it had elite gloss on those courts

 

317

00:11:37,363 --> 00:11:38,798

and they all performed fine.

 

318

00:11:38,798 --> 00:11:39,799

You remember last year

 

319

00:11:39,799 --> 00:11:41,834

there was a big, you know, controversy

 

320

00:11:41,834 --> 00:11:42,902

over some of the floor

 

321

00:11:42,902 --> 00:11:45,104

as players were saying were slippery.

 

322

00:11:45,104 --> 00:11:45,971

There were issues

 

323

00:11:45,971 --> 00:11:47,940

they didn't like the way the finish felt

 

324

00:11:47,940 --> 00:11:49,442

this year.

 

325

00:11:49,442 --> 00:11:51,210

And knock on wood for it.

 

326

00:11:51,210 --> 00:11:54,613

But we had no complaints due to slip,

 

327

00:11:54,613 --> 00:11:56,682

no issues with the finish

 

328

00:11:56,682 --> 00:11:57,616

or the painting.

 

329

00:11:57,616 --> 00:12:00,019

Everything was super successful.

 

330

00:12:00,019 --> 00:12:01,187

The NBA was very,

 

331

00:12:01,187 --> 00:12:01,921

very pleased

 

332

00:12:01,921 --> 00:12:03,089

with the outcome

 

333

00:12:03,089 --> 00:12:05,925

of of the tournament this year

 

334

00:12:05,925 --> 00:12:08,794

and the designs are already coming in

 

335

00:12:08,794 --> 00:12:10,429

for for next year's

 

336

00:12:10,429 --> 00:12:12,932

NBA Cup tournament, where again,

 

337

00:12:12,932 --> 00:12:14,233

all 30 of those courts

 

338

00:12:14,233 --> 00:12:15,835

will get sanded down

 

339

00:12:15,835 --> 00:12:19,705

and a brand new theme of colors will be

 

340

00:12:19,705 --> 00:12:21,507

will be painted 100%

 

341

00:12:21,507 --> 00:12:23,042

on every one of those courts.

 

342

00:12:23,042 --> 00:12:24,977

The NBA did that on purpose.

 

343

00:12:24,977 --> 00:12:27,146

They wanted these courts

 

344

00:12:27,146 --> 00:12:29,548

to to look so different

 

345

00:12:29,548 --> 00:12:31,717

that if you were watching TV

 

346

00:12:31,717 --> 00:12:33,152

and you were turning

 

347

00:12:33,152 --> 00:12:35,554

channels and a game was on,

 

348

00:12:35,554 --> 00:12:37,957

the NBA wanted you to know immediately

 

349

00:12:37,957 --> 00:12:39,992

just by looking at that court

 

350

00:12:39,992 --> 00:12:41,093

to know that, hey,

 

351

00:12:41,093 --> 00:12:43,829

this is an NBA Cup tournament game

 

352

00:12:43,829 --> 00:12:46,365

and there are only, you know, four,

 

353

00:12:46,365 --> 00:12:47,133

four games.

 

354

00:12:47,133 --> 00:12:48,834

I think most most of those laws

 

355

00:12:48,834 --> 00:12:51,837

are only played on two or three times

 

356

00:12:51,837 --> 00:12:53,005

at the most.

 

357

00:12:53,005 --> 00:12:53,773

And then

 

358

00:12:53,773 --> 00:12:54,473

they picked them up

 

359

00:12:54,473 --> 00:12:55,674

and shipped them back.

 

360

00:12:55,674 --> 00:13:00,012

So very big investment for the NBA.

 

361

00:13:00,012 --> 00:13:02,548

And it's been the showpiece.

 

362

00:13:02,548 --> 00:13:03,983

And like I said,

 

363

00:13:03,983 --> 00:13:05,384

whether you like them or not,

 

364

00:13:05,384 --> 00:13:06,719

like the way they look, they've

 

365

00:13:06,719 --> 00:13:09,021

they've generated a lot of conversation

 

366

00:13:09,021 --> 00:13:12,024

and I mean so much on social media

 

367

00:13:12,057 --> 00:13:13,692

about about the courts

 

368

00:13:13,692 --> 00:13:14,994

looking incredible,

 

369

00:13:14,994 --> 00:13:16,762

looking awful looking, whatever.

 

370

00:13:16,762 --> 00:13:17,730

The bottom line is,

 

371

00:13:17,730 --> 00:13:19,398

it was a successful tournament.

 

372

00:13:19,398 --> 00:13:21,033

Everything worked out great.

 

373

00:13:21,033 --> 00:13:24,303

And we were super proud to to, you know,

 

374

00:13:24,403 --> 00:13:24,904

know how

 

375

00:13:24,904 --> 00:13:26,238

well the elite

 

376

00:13:26,238 --> 00:13:28,240

performed on all those courts.

 

377

00:13:28,240 --> 00:13:30,476

And that's just going to going to magnify

 

378

00:13:30,476 --> 00:13:32,211

in for next season.

 

379

00:13:32,211 --> 00:13:35,214

The NBA, you know,

 

380

00:13:35,214 --> 00:13:36,115

all of the courts

 

381

00:13:36,115 --> 00:13:36,882

that are

 

382

00:13:36,882 --> 00:13:38,083

in existence right now

 

383

00:13:38,083 --> 00:13:40,953

for the NBA, there's 91 courts

 

384

00:13:40,953 --> 00:13:43,956

that exist within the NBA.

 

385

00:13:43,956 --> 00:13:44,890

And, you know,

 

386

00:13:44,890 --> 00:13:45,057

there's

 

387

00:13:45,057 --> 00:13:46,225

the 30 teams

 

388

00:13:46,225 --> 00:13:47,693

in the core courts

 

389

00:13:47,693 --> 00:13:49,128

that you see every day.

 

390

00:13:49,128 --> 00:13:50,162

And then there are City

 

391

00:13:50,162 --> 00:13:51,397

Edition courts

 

392

00:13:51,397 --> 00:13:52,331

that, you know,

 

393

00:13:52,331 --> 00:13:52,865

almost half

 

394

00:13:52,865 --> 00:13:55,501

the teams have not have the staff,

 

395

00:13:55,501 --> 00:13:56,635

but some of the teams

 

396

00:13:56,635 --> 00:13:58,170

have a city edition court.

 

397

00:13:58,170 --> 00:14:00,072

They have a classic edition court,

 

398

00:14:00,072 --> 00:14:01,707

which is like a throwback.

 

399

00:14:01,707 --> 00:14:02,074

And, you know,

 

400

00:14:02,074 --> 00:14:06,078

they match these courts to uniform

 

401

00:14:06,078 --> 00:14:09,582

design and and apparel sales.

 

402

00:14:09,915 --> 00:14:11,517

And and now, you know,

 

403

00:14:11,517 --> 00:14:14,954

all 30 teams have have a NBA

 

404

00:14:14,954 --> 00:14:16,222

Cup court as well.

 

405

00:14:16,222 --> 00:14:19,191

So it totals 91 courts.

 

406

00:14:19,191 --> 00:14:20,125

They're all bona.

 

407

00:14:20,125 --> 00:14:21,627

Every one of them was done with bona

 

408

00:14:21,627 --> 00:14:22,428

this year.

 

409

00:14:22,428 --> 00:14:24,964

Next year they'll all be done with Bona.

 

410

00:14:24,964 --> 00:14:28,334

Again, it's all Supersport water

 

411

00:14:28,334 --> 00:14:31,337

based paint on every one of those courts.

 

412

00:14:31,637 --> 00:14:34,340

And it's been either

 

413

00:14:34,340 --> 00:14:36,041

it's either going to be elite

 

414

00:14:36,041 --> 00:14:38,110

gloss for water

 

415

00:14:38,110 --> 00:14:42,181

or sport poorly when they go with oil.

 

416

00:14:42,181 --> 00:14:42,681

So right now

 

417

00:14:42,681 --> 00:14:43,682

it's about half and half,

 

418

00:14:43,682 --> 00:14:46,285

half the team's water, half oil.

 

419

00:14:46,285 --> 00:14:49,154

We're going to see a transition

 

420

00:14:49,154 --> 00:14:53,425

over to more water sports

 

421

00:14:53,759 --> 00:14:54,760

as we go forward.

 

422

00:14:54,760 --> 00:14:56,395

And the NBA really wants

 

423

00:14:56,395 --> 00:14:56,695

you know,

 

424

00:14:56,695 --> 00:14:58,964

they want all the teams to go water

 

425

00:14:58,964 --> 00:15:01,233

eventually because they want uniformity.

 

426

00:15:01,233 --> 00:15:02,902

The NBA wants every court

 

427

00:15:02,902 --> 00:15:04,670

to be consistent,

 

428

00:15:04,670 --> 00:15:06,572

you know, and exactly the same.

 

429

00:15:06,572 --> 00:15:08,374

And they you know,

 

430

00:15:08,374 --> 00:15:10,009

the argument always has been, hey,

 

431

00:15:10,009 --> 00:15:11,210

every team,

 

432

00:15:11,210 --> 00:15:14,013

you know, has plays with the same ball.

 

433

00:15:14,013 --> 00:15:16,115

They all shoot in the same goals.

 

434

00:15:16,115 --> 00:15:17,616

They all wear,

 

435

00:15:17,616 --> 00:15:19,852

you know, the same brand of uniform.

 

436

00:15:19,852 --> 00:15:20,119

You know,

 

437

00:15:20,119 --> 00:15:22,588

why would they allow all these courts

 

438

00:15:22,588 --> 00:15:24,523

to have different coatings on them?

 

439

00:15:24,523 --> 00:15:26,592

So right now it's down to two

 

440

00:15:27,726 --> 00:15:30,729

oil

 

441

00:15:39,004 --> 00:15:39,571

So this

 

442

00:15:39,571 --> 00:15:40,572

has been another episode

 

443

00:15:40,572 --> 00:15:42,675

of On the Floor with Wayne and Rob.

 

444

00:15:42,675 --> 00:15:45,678

Please stay tuned for another episode.

 

445

00:15:46,812 --> 00:15:47,846

you're.

 

446

00:15:47,846 --> 00:15:49,748

I'm pretty sure you're a three timer

 

447

00:15:49,748 --> 00:15:52,751

right on the show.

 

448

00:16:30,255 --> 00:16:33,625

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah,

 

449

00:16:34,793 --> 00:16:35,260

yeah.

 

450

00:16:35,260 --> 00:16:38,263

We.

 

451

00:16:57,483 --> 00:16:59,018

But

 

452

00:16:59,018 --> 00:17:00,119

we do.

 

453

00:17:00,119 --> 00:17:03,122

We tell it.

 

454

00:17:13,332 --> 00:17:14,633

Well, he's

 

455

00:17:14,633 --> 00:17:17,636

canceled eight times

 

456

00:17:30,482 --> 00:17:31,683

now.

 

457

00:17:31,683 --> 00:17:34,686

Unbelievable.

 

458

00:17:39,691 --> 00:17:41,593

Know

 

459

00:17:41,593 --> 00:17:43,695

there won't be a fourth.

 

460

00:17:43,695 --> 00:17:46,698

I'll tell you that.

 

461

00:17:47,733 --> 00:17:48,934

We tell every

 

462

00:17:48,934 --> 00:17:51,937

we tell every

 

463

00:17:58,143 --> 00:17:59,378

we we tell every guest

 

464

00:17:59,378 --> 00:18:00,345

that we want you on

 

465

00:18:00,345 --> 00:18:03,348

for our 100th episode.

 

466

00:18:23,102 --> 00:18:23,769

beautiful.

 

467

00:18:23,769 --> 00:18:26,772

Yeah. Yeah.

 

468

00:18:27,172 --> 00:18:28,073

Wow.

 

469

00:18:28,073 --> 00:18:28,740

nice.

 

470

00:18:28,740 --> 00:18:29,241

Very nice.

 

471

00:18:29,241 --> 00:18:32,244

Boy, A great

 

472

00:18:52,331 --> 00:18:55,334

a

 

473

00:19:54,593 --> 00:19:54,927

You know,

 

474

00:19:54,927 --> 00:19:56,695

and I think the other amazing thing

 

475

00:19:56,695 --> 00:19:57,963

is, I mean, we've,

 

476

00:19:57,963 --> 00:19:58,330

you know,

 

477

00:19:58,330 --> 00:19:59,097

all three of us

 

478

00:19:59,097 --> 00:20:01,333

been in that business forever

 

479

00:20:01,333 --> 00:20:03,368

way back now to when we were just

 

480

00:20:03,368 --> 00:20:05,404

sanding floors. Okay.

 

481

00:20:05,404 --> 00:20:06,438

And how many times did

 

482

00:20:06,438 --> 00:20:08,407

we have customers say,

 

483

00:20:08,407 --> 00:20:10,175

I want the toughest finish you got?

 

484

00:20:10,175 --> 00:20:11,977

I want Jim finish.

 

485

00:20:11,977 --> 00:20:14,313

And then we'd always explain, Well, it's

 

486

00:20:14,313 --> 00:20:16,014

not that it's tougher,

 

487

00:20:16,014 --> 00:20:18,217

it's just player safety,

 

488

00:20:18,217 --> 00:20:20,285

the slip coefficient, the whole thing

 

489

00:20:20,285 --> 00:20:21,019

and the whole time

 

490

00:20:21,019 --> 00:20:21,920

they're just looking at you

 

491

00:20:21,920 --> 00:20:23,355

like, Yeah, okay, Yeah. But

 

492

00:20:25,924 --> 00:20:26,458

You say it.

 

493

00:20:26,458 --> 00:20:29,461

Is

 

494

00:20:55,887 --> 00:20:58,890

like in

 

495

00:21:11,470 --> 00:21:14,473

Appreciate that.

 

496

00:21:22,914 --> 00:21:24,383

you said that it's hard

 

497

00:21:24,383 --> 00:21:26,251

to come up with a set finish

 

498

00:21:26,251 --> 00:21:28,186

on a gym floor, but it's actually not.

 

499

00:21:28,186 --> 00:21:30,989

I went on air and I just said,

 

500

00:21:30,989 --> 00:21:32,024

can you pull a set

 

501

00:21:32,024 --> 00:21:34,159

and finish on a gym floor?

 

502

00:21:34,159 --> 00:21:35,994

And it says Durability

 

503

00:21:35,994 --> 00:21:37,329

and finishes provide a good balance

 

504

00:21:37,329 --> 00:21:38,664

between appearance and durability.

 

505

00:21:38,664 --> 00:21:39,598

They can withstand foot

 

506

00:21:39,598 --> 00:21:40,732

traffic are easier to clean

 

507

00:21:40,732 --> 00:21:42,200

the high gloss finishes

 

508

00:21:42,200 --> 00:21:44,603

which conceal scuff marks and more dirt

 

509

00:21:44,603 --> 00:21:46,371

dirt really readily.

 

510

00:21:46,371 --> 00:21:48,573

A satin finish offers a more muted sheen

 

511

00:21:48,573 --> 00:21:49,808

compared to a glossy finish

 

512

00:21:49,808 --> 00:21:50,709

which can esthetically

 

513

00:21:50,709 --> 00:21:52,644

pleasing, can be esthetically pleasing

 

514

00:21:52,644 --> 00:21:52,944

and help

 

515

00:21:52,944 --> 00:21:54,913

reduce the glare from overhead lights.

 

516

00:21:54,913 --> 00:21:57,916

You got to just the whole technology.

 

517

00:21:58,083 --> 00:21:59,384

Wouldn't you love to go out to dinner

 

518

00:21:59,384 --> 00:22:00,452

with Wayne and his wife?

 

519

00:22:00,452 --> 00:22:01,753

And his wife says, Hey,

 

520

00:22:01,753 --> 00:22:02,087

Wayne, you're

 

521

00:22:02,087 --> 00:22:03,188

going out of town this week.

 

522

00:22:03,188 --> 00:22:04,156

And he goes, Wait a minute,

 

523

00:22:05,324 --> 00:22:06,658

let me check with a guy.

 

524

00:22:06,658 --> 00:22:08,994

Let's see what air is going to say.

 

525

00:22:08,994 --> 00:22:10,862

hey, Bill, I got a question for you.

 

526

00:22:10,862 --> 00:22:13,532

Do you see other floor coverings

 

527

00:22:13,532 --> 00:22:15,334

other than the hardwood

 

528

00:22:15,334 --> 00:22:16,935

creeping in to the gym for business?

 

529

00:22:16,935 --> 00:22:17,736

Do you think that's ever going

 

530

00:22:17,736 --> 00:22:19,905

to be a thing

 

531

00:22:19,905 --> 00:22:21,006

You know, it's always been

 

532

00:22:21,006 --> 00:22:22,240

it's always been a thing, right?

 

533

00:22:22,240 --> 00:22:23,775

So synthetic

 

534

00:22:23,775 --> 00:22:26,778

synthetic courts, rubber courts,

 

535

00:22:26,812 --> 00:22:27,579

they're out there

 

536

00:22:27,579 --> 00:22:29,314

and there's a place for them

 

537

00:22:29,314 --> 00:22:30,782

and there's a need for them.

 

538

00:22:30,782 --> 00:22:35,721

You know, they I get I don't see,

 

539

00:22:36,388 --> 00:22:38,490

you know, them taking hold

 

540

00:22:38,490 --> 00:22:40,125

any more than they have, you know,

 

541

00:22:40,125 --> 00:22:42,260

in the last ten, 15 years.

 

542

00:22:42,260 --> 00:22:43,261

Most of the sports

 

543

00:22:43,261 --> 00:22:46,431

law contractors will do

 

544

00:22:46,832 --> 00:22:49,368

some sort of synthetic or rubber flooring

 

545

00:22:49,368 --> 00:22:50,569

along with their wood.

 

546

00:22:50,569 --> 00:22:51,703

And, you know, it's it's

 

547

00:22:51,703 --> 00:22:53,905

a very it's a very profitable

 

548

00:22:53,905 --> 00:22:55,006

part of the business

 

549

00:22:55,006 --> 00:22:57,776

is the the synthetic side.

 

550

00:22:57,776 --> 00:23:00,178

But wood is still at least,

 

551

00:23:00,178 --> 00:23:02,948

you know, in in North America

 

552

00:23:02,948 --> 00:23:06,885

to have a wooden gym floor is still

 

553

00:23:06,885 --> 00:23:09,321

the standard. It's still ideal.

 

554

00:23:09,321 --> 00:23:11,890

What we are seeing

 

555

00:23:11,890 --> 00:23:12,858

starting to creep

 

556

00:23:12,858 --> 00:23:14,126

in a little bit right now.

 

557

00:23:14,126 --> 00:23:15,727

I can't imagine

 

558

00:23:15,727 --> 00:23:17,028

that it's going to be

 

559

00:23:17,028 --> 00:23:19,030

something that takes off soon.

 

560

00:23:19,030 --> 00:23:21,700

But over the last couple of years,

 

561

00:23:21,700 --> 00:23:24,703

we've seen the introduction of a company

 

562

00:23:25,170 --> 00:23:26,972

out of Europe, out of Germany.

 

563

00:23:26,972 --> 00:23:30,142

I believe that produces a glass court.

 

564

00:23:30,642 --> 00:23:31,910

And the NBA has used

 

565

00:23:31,910 --> 00:23:32,811

this glass court

 

566

00:23:32,811 --> 00:23:33,678

at a couple

 

567

00:23:33,678 --> 00:23:35,714

of little tournaments

 

568

00:23:35,714 --> 00:23:37,048

that they've had that.

 

569

00:23:37,048 --> 00:23:38,550

I think they use it at the All-Star Game

 

570

00:23:38,550 --> 00:23:40,051

maybe last year

 

571

00:23:40,051 --> 00:23:43,989

where it's super, super neat to see

 

572

00:23:44,289 --> 00:23:45,257

because the glass court,

 

573

00:23:45,257 --> 00:23:48,260

it's like a giant TV screen

 

574

00:23:48,393 --> 00:23:49,995

and they can put anything

 

575

00:23:49,995 --> 00:23:51,062

they want on that court.

 

576

00:23:51,062 --> 00:23:51,930

In fact, the

 

577

00:23:51,930 --> 00:23:54,166

the NBA has a facility

 

578

00:23:54,166 --> 00:23:57,035

in Orlando, Florida, right now,

 

579

00:23:57,035 --> 00:23:59,671

that has a glass court in it.

 

580

00:23:59,671 --> 00:24:03,442

And what's so cool about this is that

 

581

00:24:04,476 --> 00:24:04,810

when the

 

582

00:24:04,810 --> 00:24:07,879

teams are in Orlando to play the magic,

 

583

00:24:08,480 --> 00:24:09,881

the hotel that they stay

 

584

00:24:09,881 --> 00:24:12,484

at is a good distance

 

585

00:24:12,484 --> 00:24:14,186

away from the arena.

 

586

00:24:14,186 --> 00:24:17,088

And they don't like taking the 40 minute

 

587

00:24:17,088 --> 00:24:18,089

ride to the arena

 

588

00:24:18,089 --> 00:24:19,991

just to do their shootarounds

 

589

00:24:19,991 --> 00:24:21,326

in their practices.

 

590

00:24:21,326 --> 00:24:24,696

So the NBA opened up this facility

 

591

00:24:24,696 --> 00:24:26,298

with a glass court

 

592

00:24:26,298 --> 00:24:27,933

and with the press of a button.

 

593

00:24:27,933 --> 00:24:31,169

They can put all 30 teams courts

 

594

00:24:31,536 --> 00:24:33,905

on that floor. Within a second.

 

595

00:24:33,905 --> 00:24:35,941

You press the button and there it is.

 

596

00:24:35,941 --> 00:24:36,641

Plus, they can put

 

597

00:24:36,641 --> 00:24:37,642

I mean, they can do anything

 

598

00:24:37,642 --> 00:24:38,310

they want with it.

 

599

00:24:38,310 --> 00:24:38,910

So here I am.

 

600

00:24:38,910 --> 00:24:41,379

I'm like, I'm promoting the glass court.

 

601

00:24:41,379 --> 00:24:43,081

It is super cool.

 

602

00:24:43,081 --> 00:24:44,349

It is very neat.

 

603

00:24:44,349 --> 00:24:47,919

It's something that right

 

604

00:24:47,919 --> 00:24:50,922

now, technology's not going to allow

 

605

00:24:51,022 --> 00:24:52,057

that

 

606

00:24:52,057 --> 00:24:52,624

these courts

 

607

00:24:52,624 --> 00:24:54,593

to be used on a regular basis

 

608

00:24:54,593 --> 00:24:57,596

because it is a lot and I think it takes,

 

609

00:24:57,596 --> 00:24:58,763

you know, over a day,

 

610

00:24:58,763 --> 00:24:59,764

I think to

 

611

00:24:59,764 --> 00:25:02,667

to put the court in and to take it out.

 

612

00:25:02,667 --> 00:25:03,034

And, you know,

 

613

00:25:03,034 --> 00:25:05,103

there's a lot of technology behind it.

 

614

00:25:05,103 --> 00:25:06,738

But I mean, those

 

615

00:25:06,738 --> 00:25:08,673

those are the materials that we're seeing

 

616

00:25:08,673 --> 00:25:12,077

that would synthetic and now glass and

 

617

00:25:12,143 --> 00:25:13,945

and that's pretty much been it.

 

618

00:25:13,945 --> 00:25:15,981

It was amazing that

 

619

00:25:15,981 --> 00:25:17,482

I thought they were incredible,

 

620

00:25:17,482 --> 00:25:19,117

the graphics on those

 

621

00:25:19,117 --> 00:25:21,319

and the art that went into those courts,

 

622

00:25:21,319 --> 00:25:22,287

they're absolutely amazing.

 

623

00:25:22,287 --> 00:25:23,355

Every one of the unique

 

624

00:25:24,322 --> 00:25:26,091

and the

 

625

00:25:26,091 --> 00:25:27,125

fact that they've been patented

 

626

00:25:27,125 --> 00:25:27,959

and one of them makes it hard

 

627

00:25:27,959 --> 00:25:29,995

for you to send all that off

 

628

00:25:29,995 --> 00:25:30,962

or it makes it easier

 

629

00:25:30,962 --> 00:25:32,531

because you don't have steam

 

630

00:25:32,531 --> 00:25:35,534

penetrating into the into the maple.

 

631

00:25:40,205 --> 00:25:42,440

Okay.

 

632

00:25:42,440 --> 00:25:42,774

Okay.

 

633

00:25:42,774 --> 00:25:45,644

Thanks.

 

634

00:25:45,644 --> 00:25:46,678

Wow.

 

635

00:25:46,678 --> 00:25:48,079

Do. That's the question. Wow.

 

636

00:25:48,079 --> 00:25:48,346

That was.

 

637

00:25:48,346 --> 00:25:49,080

Well, sorry, Bill.

 

638

00:25:49,080 --> 00:25:52,083

Yeah, to hear that.

 

639

00:25:52,751 --> 00:25:53,318

yeah.

 

640

00:25:53,318 --> 00:25:56,221

Yeah, yeah.

 

641

00:25:56,221 --> 00:25:59,224

No.

 

642

00:26:01,459 --> 00:26:01,893

All right.

 

643

00:26:01,893 --> 00:26:04,329

All right, Rob, Let's get back on track.

 

644

00:26:04,329 --> 00:26:05,397

All right.

 

645

00:26:05,397 --> 00:26:06,331

To stay on track.

 

646

00:26:06,331 --> 00:26:09,334

I've listened to 100 of your

 

647

00:26:22,847 --> 00:26:24,616

I think I reveal

 

648

00:26:24,616 --> 00:26:27,619

too much.

 

649

00:26:32,390 --> 00:26:35,360

Yeah, I think with.

 

650

00:26:39,764 --> 00:26:41,967

Yeah,

 

651

00:26:41,967 --> 00:26:43,134

Yeah.

 

652

00:26:43,134 --> 00:26:46,137

You

 

653

00:26:46,838 --> 00:26:49,674

a you be careful there.

 

654

00:26:49,674 --> 00:26:52,310

You been

 

655

00:26:52,310 --> 00:26:55,280

going down that road, buddy?

 

656

00:26:56,982 --> 00:26:59,417

A easy.

 

657

00:26:59,417 --> 00:27:02,454

we can see what this guy saw I got.

 

658

00:27:03,054 --> 00:27:04,089

I got a picture of her legs

 

659

00:27:04,089 --> 00:27:06,758

here somewhere. Yeah, sure.

 

660

00:27:09,027 --> 00:27:10,161

But yeah, so I mean, your

 

661

00:27:10,161 --> 00:27:12,263

your, your, your episodes

 

662

00:27:12,263 --> 00:27:13,732

with staying on track

 

663

00:27:13,732 --> 00:27:15,967

and everything, I don't

 

664

00:27:15,967 --> 00:27:16,835

I don't really know.

 

665

00:27:16,835 --> 00:27:17,235

You know,

 

666

00:27:17,235 --> 00:27:18,003

I feel like I'm giving

 

667

00:27:18,003 --> 00:27:19,404

too much actual information

 

668

00:27:19,404 --> 00:27:20,939

that's related to the topic.

 

669

00:27:20,939 --> 00:27:22,974

well, since since we're there.

 

670

00:27:22,974 --> 00:27:25,977

Do you know that we got a letter or.

 

671

00:27:26,211 --> 00:27:27,379

I always call a letter.

 

672

00:27:27,379 --> 00:27:30,548

We got an email from a guy in England

 

673

00:27:31,750 --> 00:27:33,952

who knew the whole thing.

 

674

00:27:33,952 --> 00:27:36,955

The little car, the milk,

 

675

00:27:38,990 --> 00:27:41,459

Yeah,

 

676

00:27:41,459 --> 00:27:42,127

Yeah.

 

677

00:27:42,127 --> 00:27:43,461

That was actually for me,

 

678

00:27:43,461 --> 00:27:46,464

that was very cool, because

 

679

00:27:52,871 --> 00:27:55,006

I never,

 

680

00:27:55,006 --> 00:27:56,341

I never knew anybody else

 

681

00:27:56,341 --> 00:27:58,343

that, that lived a little bit in life.

 

682

00:27:58,343 --> 00:28:01,346

So hearing that bonding

 

683

00:28:01,379 --> 00:28:02,814

and I don't know if my dad hadn't

 

684

00:28:02,814 --> 00:28:04,382

beat the milkmen up or threatened to,

 

685

00:28:04,382 --> 00:28:04,916

I don't know.

 

686

00:28:04,916 --> 00:28:06,685

Maybe I could have been a milkman today.

 

687

00:28:08,853 --> 00:28:09,154

I might

 

688

00:28:09,154 --> 00:28:12,157

be after this episode.

 

689

00:28:12,290 --> 00:28:13,491

Yeah. All right.

 

690

00:28:13,491 --> 00:28:14,659

So it's just going off track

 

691

00:28:14,659 --> 00:28:15,960

and I'll tell you a story real quick.

 

692

00:28:15,960 --> 00:28:17,028

And if we have to cut it out,

 

693

00:28:17,028 --> 00:28:20,899

we'll get it out of Canada

 

694

00:28:22,100 --> 00:28:22,967

this week.

 

695

00:28:22,967 --> 00:28:25,203

And I take it Uber rides in the airport

 

696

00:28:25,203 --> 00:28:26,304

and the Uber,

 

697

00:28:26,304 --> 00:28:27,772

The gentleman is from Pakistan

 

698

00:28:27,772 --> 00:28:29,274

and he could not be more polite,

 

699

00:28:29,274 --> 00:28:30,675

Super nice guy.

 

700

00:28:30,675 --> 00:28:31,643

We're driving down a road

 

701

00:28:31,643 --> 00:28:33,478

and he knows we're talking, you know,

 

702

00:28:33,478 --> 00:28:34,012

he said,

 

703

00:28:34,012 --> 00:28:34,813

well, he's only been here

 

704

00:28:34,813 --> 00:28:35,780

a couple of months in Canada

 

705

00:28:35,780 --> 00:28:36,181

and everything.

 

706

00:28:36,181 --> 00:28:37,115

And we're talking about what?

 

707

00:28:37,115 --> 00:28:38,383

And he's very talkative men,

 

708

00:28:38,383 --> 00:28:40,151

really, really talkative.

 

709

00:28:40,151 --> 00:28:42,654

And then topic came up about hunting.

 

710

00:28:42,654 --> 00:28:44,089

He says he loves to hunt.

 

711

00:28:44,089 --> 00:28:45,757

He's a great hunter.

 

712

00:28:45,757 --> 00:28:46,925

And it's interesting,

 

713

00:28:46,925 --> 00:28:47,192

I said,

 

714

00:28:47,192 --> 00:28:48,359

why did what

 

715

00:28:48,359 --> 00:28:51,196

what do you hit back in in Pakistan?

 

716

00:28:51,196 --> 00:28:53,798

And it was Pakistan and al-Baghdadi

 

717

00:28:53,798 --> 00:28:56,301

and he said they hunt deer.

 

718

00:28:56,301 --> 00:28:57,469

Is it really?

 

719

00:28:57,469 --> 00:28:58,436

He said, yes.

 

720

00:28:58,436 --> 00:28:59,070

I said, What?

 

721

00:28:59,070 --> 00:28:59,504

I mean, like,

 

722

00:28:59,504 --> 00:29:01,506

what kind of hunting do they have there?

 

723

00:29:01,506 --> 00:29:05,710

And he says, two kinds, legal

 

724

00:29:06,711 --> 00:29:08,513

and illegal.

 

725

00:29:08,513 --> 00:29:11,516

And well, and he's not I mean, he's

 

726

00:29:11,816 --> 00:29:12,484

he's being

 

727

00:29:12,484 --> 00:29:13,685

I mean, that's just the way it is.

 

728

00:29:13,685 --> 00:29:15,587

It wasn't joking about it.

 

729

00:29:15,587 --> 00:29:17,388

And he said that

 

730

00:29:17,388 --> 00:29:18,990

when they go hunting there,

 

731

00:29:18,990 --> 00:29:19,891

they do it illegally.

 

732

00:29:19,891 --> 00:29:22,060

And so they contact somebody

 

733

00:29:22,060 --> 00:29:24,395

and they spend the night at his house.

 

734

00:29:24,395 --> 00:29:25,296

And then 230 morning,

 

735

00:29:25,296 --> 00:29:27,132

they go up in the hills

 

736

00:29:27,132 --> 00:29:27,966

and there's three of them.

 

737

00:29:27,966 --> 00:29:29,200

So the three rivals,

 

738

00:29:29,200 --> 00:29:31,970

when they see a deer, they go, one,

 

739

00:29:31,970 --> 00:29:34,973

two, three, and they all shoot on three.

 

740

00:29:34,973 --> 00:29:36,875

That there is that.

 

741

00:29:36,875 --> 00:29:38,109

Then they hand

 

742

00:29:38,109 --> 00:29:39,277

the right ones to the guides

 

743

00:29:39,277 --> 00:29:41,012

and then they the guides,

 

744

00:29:41,012 --> 00:29:43,314

then they run away from the deer

 

745

00:29:43,314 --> 00:29:45,350

and the guy runs to the deer

 

746

00:29:45,350 --> 00:29:46,217

because it's illegal.

 

747

00:29:46,217 --> 00:29:46,951

They can't get caught.

 

748

00:29:46,951 --> 00:29:49,154

So they scurry back down

 

749

00:29:49,154 --> 00:29:52,157

and then they to get the deer home,

 

750

00:29:52,223 --> 00:29:52,791

they don't take

 

751

00:29:52,791 --> 00:29:53,992

they don't put the deer in the car

 

752

00:29:53,992 --> 00:29:56,327

to go home because you get pulled over.

 

753

00:29:56,327 --> 00:29:56,661

So

 

754

00:29:57,629 --> 00:29:58,630

they cut it up and put it in

 

755

00:29:58,630 --> 00:30:00,832

boxes and take the bus home.

 

756

00:30:00,832 --> 00:30:02,300

One guy takes the car.

 

757

00:30:02,300 --> 00:30:03,401

That's a hell of a lot of work to go

 

758

00:30:03,401 --> 00:30:06,404

deer hunting.

 

759

00:30:06,838 --> 00:30:08,273

I was good guy.

 

760

00:30:08,273 --> 00:30:09,674

He taught me about Love Lake

 

761

00:30:09,674 --> 00:30:11,643

and all kinds of stuff over there, man.

 

762

00:30:11,643 --> 00:30:13,578

Yeah, So.

 

763

00:30:13,578 --> 00:30:14,746

I do a lot of illegal fishing.

 

764

00:30:14,746 --> 00:30:17,749

When I was younger, so.

 

765

00:30:18,550 --> 00:30:19,984

All right, so what else is going on

 

766

00:30:19,984 --> 00:30:21,553

in this board world there, Rob?

 

767

00:30:21,553 --> 00:30:23,755

They'll

 

768

00:30:23,755 --> 00:30:25,223

we talked about the elite,

 

769

00:30:25,223 --> 00:30:26,691

if I could mention really

 

770

00:30:26,691 --> 00:30:27,692

the main

 

771

00:30:27,692 --> 00:30:31,496

product are are pretty much go to product

 

772

00:30:31,763 --> 00:30:32,831

of the future

 

773

00:30:32,831 --> 00:30:33,765

for for sport

 

774

00:30:33,765 --> 00:30:36,334

is going to be super sport MVP

 

775

00:30:36,334 --> 00:30:39,170

which is very similar technology

 

776

00:30:39,170 --> 00:30:42,440

to super sport and Supersport HD

 

777

00:30:43,208 --> 00:30:44,075

you know where

 

778

00:30:44,075 --> 00:30:45,343

we're we're going to be

 

779

00:30:45,343 --> 00:30:47,846

discontinuing Supersport

 

780

00:30:47,846 --> 00:30:48,880

this year

 

781

00:30:48,880 --> 00:30:49,914

and everything is going

 

782

00:30:49,914 --> 00:30:51,549

to transition over to MVP.

 

783

00:30:51,549 --> 00:30:55,153

So really MVP will be the day to day

 

784

00:30:55,486 --> 00:30:56,387

use product.

 

785

00:30:56,387 --> 00:30:57,155

The elite will be

 

786

00:30:57,155 --> 00:31:00,792

that higher end product for for,

 

787

00:31:01,025 --> 00:31:02,227

you know, more high

 

788

00:31:02,227 --> 00:31:04,162

profile projects possibly

 

789

00:31:04,162 --> 00:31:05,964

or where durability

 

790

00:31:05,964 --> 00:31:08,233

is really going to be super important.

 

791

00:31:08,233 --> 00:31:10,068

So the MVP the elite,

 

792

00:31:10,068 --> 00:31:13,104

we've got a couple of new products

 

793

00:31:13,104 --> 00:31:14,138

coming out there

 

794

00:31:14,138 --> 00:31:14,772

so new that

 

795

00:31:14,772 --> 00:31:16,207

we don't actually

 

796

00:31:16,207 --> 00:31:17,942

have the names for them yet,

 

797

00:31:17,942 --> 00:31:19,911

but they're both related to

 

798

00:31:19,911 --> 00:31:20,645

true painting.

 

799

00:31:21,679 --> 00:31:23,648

We've got a new primer

 

800

00:31:23,648 --> 00:31:26,351

that is going to be a Supersport

 

801

00:31:26,351 --> 00:31:27,685

paint primer,

 

802

00:31:27,685 --> 00:31:29,220

and that is primarily

 

803

00:31:29,220 --> 00:31:31,956

for some of the colors that,

 

804

00:31:31,956 --> 00:31:32,690

you know,

 

805

00:31:32,690 --> 00:31:34,859

difficult to get down in one

 

806

00:31:34,859 --> 00:31:36,394

or even two coats to cover,

 

807

00:31:36,394 --> 00:31:38,429

you know, the yellows, the golds,

 

808

00:31:38,429 --> 00:31:39,931

white reds.

 

809

00:31:39,931 --> 00:31:41,299

Up until now,

 

810

00:31:41,299 --> 00:31:41,866

you know,

 

811

00:31:41,866 --> 00:31:43,368

contractors have been

 

812

00:31:43,368 --> 00:31:46,738

putting down a beige or even a gray

 

813

00:31:51,910 --> 00:31:54,913

Right, right.

 

814

00:32:19,070 --> 00:32:22,040

You know,

 

815

00:32:39,724 --> 00:32:42,727

really?

 

816

00:32:45,897 --> 00:32:48,900

Wow.

 

817

00:33:31,209 --> 00:33:34,212

They

 

818

00:33:56,534 --> 00:33:59,537

you know,

 

819

00:34:16,721 --> 00:34:19,657

but

 

820

00:34:19,657 --> 00:34:21,959

that

 

821

00:34:21,959 --> 00:34:24,962

right

 

822

00:35:39,070 --> 00:35:42,039

know.

 

823

00:35:43,808 --> 00:35:45,409

Yeah.

 

824

00:35:45,409 --> 00:35:48,412

Yeah,

 

825

00:36:14,105 --> 00:36:17,108

yeah,

 

826

00:38:39,650 --> 00:38:42,653

so well

 

827

00:38:48,392 --> 00:38:51,395

But that I'll give you a pad

 

828

00:38:53,030 --> 00:38:54,332

I'll,

 

829

00:38:54,332 --> 00:38:55,066

I'll give you,

 

830

00:38:55,066 --> 00:38:56,367

I'll give you a pass on this one

 

831

00:38:56,367 --> 00:38:58,135

because your dad is one of

 

832

00:38:58,135 --> 00:38:59,270

the greatest people in this industry

 

833

00:38:59,270 --> 00:39:00,137

I've ever met.

 

834

00:39:00,137 --> 00:39:01,172

He was a role model.

 

835

00:39:01,172 --> 00:39:03,474

Role model to me and to a lot of people.

 

836

00:39:03,474 --> 00:39:05,576

And I got to do

 

837

00:39:05,576 --> 00:39:06,811

a couple of his presentation

 

838

00:39:06,811 --> 00:39:07,611

was blown away

 

839

00:39:07,611 --> 00:39:08,713

and how generous he was

 

840

00:39:08,713 --> 00:39:10,848

with his time and his knowledge.

 

841

00:39:10,848 --> 00:39:12,883

He was just one of the best. So yeah.

 

842

00:39:14,118 --> 00:39:15,019

I met your dad.

 

843

00:39:15,019 --> 00:39:17,521

He.

 

844

00:39:17,521 --> 00:39:19,256

We just started talking.

 

845

00:39:19,256 --> 00:39:20,725

It was over in Albany.

 

846

00:39:20,725 --> 00:39:24,095

A would pro would pro event and

 

847

00:39:25,129 --> 00:39:28,099

I he we started talking and he was

 

848

00:39:28,099 --> 00:39:28,332

you know

 

849

00:39:28,332 --> 00:39:29,867

we're talking about

 

850

00:39:29,867 --> 00:39:31,369

me doing bowling alleys and stuff.

 

851

00:39:31,369 --> 00:39:34,405

And he said, are you Harold's boy?

 

852

00:39:35,072 --> 00:39:37,108

He knew my grandfather.

 

853

00:39:37,108 --> 00:39:39,744

I said, No, I'm Harold's grandson.

 

854

00:39:39,744 --> 00:39:41,445

But the one thing that

 

855

00:39:41,445 --> 00:39:44,448

I've always said about your dad was

 

856

00:39:45,249 --> 00:39:47,017

I met him, talked to him

 

857

00:39:47,017 --> 00:39:49,220

maybe 15 or 20 minutes,

 

858

00:39:49,220 --> 00:39:51,522

and at the end of that 20 minutes,

 

859

00:39:51,522 --> 00:39:54,525

it was like I had known

 

860

00:39:54,825 --> 00:39:56,861

Yeah,

 

861

00:39:56,861 --> 00:39:59,397

a great way about him.

 

862

00:39:59,397 --> 00:40:01,465

That was just.

 

863

00:40:01,465 --> 00:40:03,367

Just an amazing guy.

 

864

00:40:03,367 --> 00:40:04,034

But that was

 

865

00:40:04,034 --> 00:40:04,668

I think,

 

866

00:40:04,668 --> 00:40:06,003

one of the greatest things about him

 

867

00:40:06,003 --> 00:40:07,138

was anybody who met him

 

868

00:40:07,138 --> 00:40:08,672

and I talked to other people

 

869

00:40:08,672 --> 00:40:10,241

and it's like, yeah, absolutely.

 

870

00:40:10,241 --> 00:40:11,442

It's like

 

871

00:40:11,442 --> 00:40:12,943

when you got done talking to him

 

872

00:40:12,943 --> 00:40:14,578

and first meeting him,

 

873

00:40:14,578 --> 00:40:15,346

it was like you've

 

874

00:40:15,346 --> 00:40:16,914

known him all your life. So

 

875

00:40:18,015 --> 00:40:18,883

You know, Bill, I

 

876

00:40:18,883 --> 00:40:21,852

Bill, I want to jump back to

 

877

00:40:21,852 --> 00:40:24,188

the lead blocker now.

 

878

00:40:24,188 --> 00:40:24,655

You know,

 

879

00:40:24,655 --> 00:40:26,090

my extensive marketing,

 

880

00:40:26,090 --> 00:40:29,093

especially in sport.

 

881

00:40:29,193 --> 00:40:30,594

I've got it for you.

 

882

00:40:30,594 --> 00:40:32,630

We're going to call a triple B

 

883

00:40:32,630 --> 00:40:33,931

bone on a bleed blocker.

 

884

00:40:33,931 --> 00:40:34,832

Done.

 

885

00:40:34,832 --> 00:40:36,834

You say you

 

886

00:40:36,834 --> 00:40:39,837

Wow.

 

887

00:40:43,073 --> 00:40:45,709

wow.

 

888

00:40:45,709 --> 00:40:48,712

That was RJ

 

889

00:40:49,847 --> 00:40:52,850

a I has no match for RJ.

 

890

00:41:00,057 --> 00:41:01,492

I want to touch on Bill

 

891

00:41:01,492 --> 00:41:02,426

and you said that

 

892

00:41:02,426 --> 00:41:05,396

we kind of jump around a little bit,

 

893

00:41:06,163 --> 00:41:07,264

you know, we lose

 

894

00:41:07,264 --> 00:41:10,267

we lose our direction sometimes

 

895

00:41:10,734 --> 00:41:13,304

we and I or Wayne and I are really fond

 

896

00:41:13,304 --> 00:41:15,005

of Quentin Tarantino.

 

897

00:41:15,005 --> 00:41:15,806

Okay.

 

898

00:41:15,806 --> 00:41:17,808

So that that's what

 

899

00:41:17,808 --> 00:41:19,376

Yeah, I think that's where our show

 

900

00:41:19,376 --> 00:41:22,346

always been heading.

 

901

00:41:22,346 --> 00:41:23,280

Keep you jumping.

 

902

00:41:23,280 --> 00:41:24,114

You know what I mean?

 

903

00:41:24,114 --> 00:41:25,282

Like a Tarantino movie.

 

904

00:41:25,282 --> 00:41:28,285

If you could start off watching the end,

 

905

00:41:28,819 --> 00:41:30,154

you don't know what's going on.

 

906

00:41:31,689 --> 00:41:33,057

And so

 

907

00:41:33,057 --> 00:41:33,858

I think

 

908

00:41:33,858 --> 00:41:34,458

people get the

 

909

00:41:34,458 --> 00:41:36,026

same feeling with the show.

 

910

00:41:36,026 --> 00:41:39,029

In, in Wayne's quirky so if it's,

 

911

00:41:39,864 --> 00:41:42,466

We may remain quirky.

 

912

00:41:42,466 --> 00:41:45,469

Yeah, yeah, yeah,

 

913

00:41:45,469 --> 00:41:48,172

yeah, yeah,

 

914

00:41:48,172 --> 00:41:51,175

yeah,

 

915

00:41:52,109 --> 00:41:54,578

yeah,

 

916

00:41:54,578 --> 00:41:57,581

yeah.

 

917

00:41:58,916 --> 00:42:03,420

I think I know what I did

 

918

00:42:03,420 --> 00:42:04,321

that this time

 

919

00:42:04,321 --> 00:42:05,723

later on, but this time

 

920

00:42:05,723 --> 00:42:07,725

I spent it all on fish and chips.

 

921

00:42:07,725 --> 00:42:08,726

It was my.

 

922

00:42:08,726 --> 00:42:09,660

It was my downfall.

 

923

00:42:09,660 --> 00:42:11,061

Good, sweet mother.

 

924

00:42:11,061 --> 00:42:12,296

God, there's

 

925

00:42:12,296 --> 00:42:13,030

nothing better than

 

926

00:42:13,030 --> 00:42:15,766

the smell of fish and chips in England.

 

927

00:42:15,766 --> 00:42:17,034

And, you know, back in those days,

 

928

00:42:17,034 --> 00:42:18,969

they wrapped it in newspaper,

 

929

00:42:18,969 --> 00:42:20,905

and later on, they stopped doing that

 

930

00:42:20,905 --> 00:42:21,772

because they realized

 

931

00:42:21,772 --> 00:42:23,474

the ink and the newspaper,

 

932

00:42:23,474 --> 00:42:24,842

you know, is poisonous.

 

933

00:42:24,842 --> 00:42:25,543

So now they

 

934

00:42:25,543 --> 00:42:26,443

they still wrap it

 

935

00:42:26,443 --> 00:42:27,611

in the same type of paper,

 

936

00:42:27,611 --> 00:42:29,680

but it before they print it,

 

937

00:42:29,680 --> 00:42:30,614

you know what I mean

 

938

00:42:30,614 --> 00:42:32,616

so I always envisioned

 

939

00:42:32,616 --> 00:42:33,384

that there'd be some

 

940

00:42:33,384 --> 00:42:34,451

some dead guy leaving.

 

941

00:42:34,451 --> 00:42:35,286

I'll go to a funeral

 

942

00:42:35,286 --> 00:42:36,820

where you sitting around going,

 

943

00:42:36,820 --> 00:42:38,455

you know, poor Frank, he's dead.

 

944

00:42:38,455 --> 00:42:41,425

And then and then the, you know,

 

945

00:42:41,425 --> 00:42:41,792

you know,

 

946

00:42:41,792 --> 00:42:44,361

the guy killed from eating the

 

947

00:42:44,361 --> 00:42:45,796

fish and chips and the paper and the,

 

948

00:42:45,796 --> 00:42:47,798

you know, the reading that leads you

 

949

00:42:47,798 --> 00:42:48,499

Leeds United

 

950

00:42:48,499 --> 00:42:51,502

that beat the Chelsea, as you know,

 

951

00:42:51,602 --> 00:42:53,137

the Egyptian, they killed them.

 

952

00:42:56,707 --> 00:42:57,942

Hey but I,

 

953

00:42:57,942 --> 00:42:58,976

I did want to

 

954

00:42:58,976 --> 00:43:01,178

I did want to say something that

 

955

00:43:01,178 --> 00:43:02,646

one thing about your team, Bill, is

 

956

00:43:02,646 --> 00:43:04,982

you've got the same guys for a long time

 

957

00:43:04,982 --> 00:43:06,784

I think, which is a really good sign.

 

958

00:43:06,784 --> 00:43:08,152

And you always give a lot of praise.

 

959

00:43:08,152 --> 00:43:08,986

Your guys.

 

960

00:43:08,986 --> 00:43:10,721

Maybe you can kind of tell

 

961

00:43:10,721 --> 00:43:13,424

what territories each guy covers.

 

962

00:43:13,424 --> 00:43:15,459

Is that possible to do

 

963

00:43:15,459 --> 00:43:15,826

it?

 

964

00:43:15,826 --> 00:43:18,829

Didn't do you know

 

965

00:43:19,463 --> 00:43:22,466

okay.

 

966

00:43:23,968 --> 00:43:25,035

Right.

 

967

00:43:25,035 --> 00:43:27,504

Okay.

 

968

00:43:27,504 --> 00:43:30,474

Okay.

 

969

00:43:31,742 --> 00:43:33,577

Yeah.

 

970

00:43:33,577 --> 00:43:35,546

I'm very lucky and I say it all the time.

 

971

00:43:35,546 --> 00:43:38,549

I'm super, super lucky.

 

972

00:43:38,649 --> 00:43:40,551

The group that I've got

 

973

00:43:40,551 --> 00:43:42,319

for the sports team

 

974

00:43:42,319 --> 00:43:43,687

has been attacked,

 

975

00:43:43,687 --> 00:43:46,590

so we we've been together for a while.

 

976

00:43:46,590 --> 00:43:50,427

And again, lucky that I've had the,

 

977

00:43:51,228 --> 00:43:52,529

I've had the opportunity

 

978

00:43:52,529 --> 00:43:55,132

to have these guys make me look good

 

979

00:43:55,132 --> 00:43:56,200

really is what it is.

 

980

00:43:56,200 --> 00:43:58,435

They they they represent Boehner

 

981

00:43:58,435 --> 00:43:59,670

so very well.

 

982

00:43:59,670 --> 00:44:00,804

The the what

 

983

00:44:00,804 --> 00:44:03,173

the baby of the group is George

 

984

00:44:03,173 --> 00:44:06,510

George Chagnon who, you know, has

 

985

00:44:06,510 --> 00:44:09,647

a ton of industry experience.

 

986

00:44:09,647 --> 00:44:10,748

He was with Power

 

987

00:44:10,748 --> 00:44:12,616

nail for years

 

988

00:44:12,616 --> 00:44:14,485

before he came to Boehner,

 

989

00:44:14,485 --> 00:44:17,488

but he came to Boehner five,

 

990

00:44:17,688 --> 00:44:19,123

five and a half years ago.

 

991

00:44:19,123 --> 00:44:21,959

And he's the baby of the group.

 

992

00:44:21,959 --> 00:44:24,528

So George handles the East Coast

 

993

00:44:24,528 --> 00:44:26,430

for sport.

 

994

00:44:27,865 --> 00:44:29,400

Kyle Show

 

995

00:44:29,400 --> 00:44:30,234

is out

 

996

00:44:30,234 --> 00:44:34,004

west and I should know the exact dates.

 

997

00:44:34,038 --> 00:44:37,041

I'm going to say at least eight years

 

998

00:44:37,408 --> 00:44:39,009

he's been with us out there

 

999

00:44:39,009 --> 00:44:41,345

and he just does a great job.

 

1000

00:44:41,345 --> 00:44:44,314

He was our he was

 

1001

00:44:44,314 --> 00:44:45,249

that's right.

 

1002

00:44:45,249 --> 00:44:45,849

Yeah.

 

1003

00:44:45,849 --> 00:44:48,852

Yeah,

 

1004

00:46:31,455 --> 00:46:32,356

what's the significance

 

1005

00:46:32,356 --> 00:46:35,359

of that Bill

 

1006

00:52:06,223 --> 00:52:06,656

Well,

 

1007

00:52:06,656 --> 00:52:08,592

I mean, it's like building

 

1008

00:52:08,592 --> 00:52:09,159

blocks, right?

 

1009

00:52:09,159 --> 00:52:10,193

I mean, we've been at it

 

1010

00:52:10,193 --> 00:52:11,728

so long and Boehner has been asked along

 

1011

00:52:11,728 --> 00:52:12,429

you and your team,

 

1012

00:52:12,429 --> 00:52:13,730

I mean, 28 years, I mean,

 

1013

00:52:13,730 --> 00:52:15,665

and now they come out with elite.

 

1014

00:52:15,665 --> 00:52:17,467

It's like the pinnacle of

 

1015

00:52:17,467 --> 00:52:19,269

from where we were to where we are now.

 

1016

00:52:19,269 --> 00:52:19,903

What's what's

 

1017

00:52:19,903 --> 00:52:21,004

what's what's,

 

1018

00:52:21,004 --> 00:52:21,638

you know,

 

1019

00:52:21,638 --> 00:52:23,707

it can be accomplished is incredible.

 

1020

00:52:23,707 --> 00:52:25,442

So I'm excited for you guys, man.

 

1021

00:52:25,442 --> 00:52:27,611

And and I know you've always done that.

 

1022

00:52:27,611 --> 00:52:29,479

You've always put your team first.

 

1023

00:52:29,479 --> 00:52:31,214

And I've read about that.

 

1024

00:52:31,214 --> 00:52:33,183

I've thought about doing it a few times.

 

1025

00:52:33,183 --> 00:52:35,185

But, you know,

 

1026

00:52:35,185 --> 00:52:36,386

if it works for everybody.

 

1027

00:52:41,858 --> 00:52:43,493

Yeah,

 

1028

00:52:43,493 --> 00:52:45,695

yeah,

 

1029

00:52:45,695 --> 00:52:48,698

yeah, yeah,

 

1030

00:52:52,169 --> 00:52:52,869

yeah.

 

1031

00:52:52,869 --> 00:52:56,173

they they make you care about you as

 

1032

00:52:56,840 --> 00:52:57,207

I haven't,

 

1033

00:52:57,207 --> 00:52:58,708

I haven't practiced my senior

 

1034

00:52:58,708 --> 00:53:00,744

since I was 12 years old or nothing.

 

1035

00:53:00,744 --> 00:53:03,747

Okay.

 

1036

00:53:14,791 --> 00:53:17,427

It's,

 

1037

00:53:17,427 --> 00:53:20,363

it's a it's a fine if they talk at all.

 

1038

00:53:20,363 --> 00:53:22,465

Yeah, yeah, yeah,

 

1039

00:53:22,465 --> 00:53:23,066

and I don't want to

 

1040

00:53:23,066 --> 00:53:24,768

I mean, I don't want to

 

1041

00:53:24,768 --> 00:53:26,469

make it sound like

 

1042

00:53:26,469 --> 00:53:28,038

I don't appreciate your podcast

 

1043

00:53:28,038 --> 00:53:29,973

because I do. I enjoy them.

 

1044

00:53:29,973 --> 00:53:31,174

I listen to them all the time.

 

1045

00:53:31,174 --> 00:53:34,110

Me and that other guy from England yeah.

 

1046

00:53:34,110 --> 00:53:37,280

That also has it also has narcolepsy.

 

1047

00:53:37,681 --> 00:53:40,684

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.

 

1048

00:53:59,536 --> 00:54:02,539

But

 

1049

00:54:06,409 --> 00:54:09,412

still bitter

 

1050

00:54:12,482 --> 00:54:14,150

Well, it would have been a lot sooner,

 

1051

00:54:14,150 --> 00:54:17,153

but you put me on waivers and,

 

1052

00:54:17,454 --> 00:54:19,856

you know, I ended up in training it.

 

1053

00:54:19,856 --> 00:54:21,925

That's still kind of hurts a little bit,

 

1054

00:54:21,925 --> 00:54:23,393

you know, but.

 

1055

00:54:23,393 --> 00:54:25,161

Well, that's all past us now.

 

1056

00:54:25,161 --> 00:54:25,862

We're good.

 

1057

00:54:25,862 --> 00:54:27,564

you were my Tom Brady.

 

1058

00:54:27,564 --> 00:54:29,065

We always said this.

 

1059

00:54:29,065 --> 00:54:29,432

You would.

 

1060

00:54:29,432 --> 00:54:29,899

You wouldn't.

 

1061

00:54:29,899 --> 00:54:31,201

And Wayne, sorry, you have to hear this.

 

1062

00:54:31,201 --> 00:54:32,068

But Rob

 

1063

00:54:32,068 --> 00:54:35,372

Rob was he's probably in the Hall of Fame

 

1064

00:54:35,605 --> 00:54:38,608

in terms of every any employee

 

1065

00:54:39,009 --> 00:54:39,743

of Boehner.

 

1066

00:54:39,743 --> 00:54:41,344

But for someone

 

1067

00:54:41,344 --> 00:54:42,579

on the sports team,

 

1068

00:54:42,579 --> 00:54:46,016

as good as my group is Robby still

 

1069

00:54:46,316 --> 00:54:47,550

he's still the Tom Brady he's

 

1070

00:54:47,550 --> 00:54:49,753

still the number one guy out there. And I

 

1071

00:54:51,388 --> 00:54:52,689

yeah, yeah, yeah.

 

1072

00:54:52,689 --> 00:54:55,692

And that's why I got put on waivers.

 

1073

00:54:55,825 --> 00:54:56,826

You say?

 

1074

00:54:56,826 --> 00:54:57,794

And I said

 

1075

00:54:57,794 --> 00:54:59,062

don't don't make it

 

1076

00:54:59,062 --> 00:54:59,763

that just keep,

 

1077

00:54:59,763 --> 00:55:01,364

make it uncomfortable for Bill.

 

1078

00:55:01,364 --> 00:55:04,367

I mean. Yeah.

 

1079

00:55:04,601 --> 00:55:06,236

Hey I was going.

 

1080

00:55:06,236 --> 00:55:07,337

To attributed

 

1081

00:55:07,337 --> 00:55:08,038

to what what

 

1082

00:55:08,038 --> 00:55:10,006

Robby put in and what he did

 

1083

00:55:10,006 --> 00:55:12,042

and nobody worked harder

 

1084

00:55:12,042 --> 00:55:14,144

Nobody worked harder than Robby.

 

1085

00:55:14,144 --> 00:55:16,146

Honestly at what you did

 

1086

00:55:16,146 --> 00:55:18,715

and the relationships that you made.

 

1087

00:55:18,715 --> 00:55:21,718

There's not a week that goes by that

 

1088

00:55:21,818 --> 00:55:22,886

that someone

 

1089

00:55:22,886 --> 00:55:24,654

that I deal with in the sport world

 

1090

00:55:24,654 --> 00:55:27,123

isn't asking about you and,

 

1091

00:55:27,123 --> 00:55:29,426

you know, surprised you're still alive

 

1092

00:55:29,426 --> 00:55:32,395

is really usually

 

1093

00:55:39,836 --> 00:55:41,237

well, you see me trying to nose

 

1094

00:55:41,237 --> 00:55:42,205

back in the sport.

 

1095

00:55:42,205 --> 00:55:43,139

I think everybody in

 

1096

00:55:43,139 --> 00:55:44,140

that company sees it.

 

1097

00:55:44,140 --> 00:55:46,509

I've Well it's embarrassing.

 

1098

00:55:46,509 --> 00:55:48,044

We're doing more sports goals

 

1099

00:55:48,044 --> 00:55:49,045

in the last two years.

 

1100

00:55:49,045 --> 00:55:50,980

1104

00:55:57,887 --> 00:55:58,688

the sport trainings.

 

1105

00:55:58,688 --> 00:56:00,190

Robby is killing it

 

1106

00:56:00,190 --> 00:56:01,658

at the sport trainings.

 

1107

00:56:01,658 --> 00:56:02,826

Rob I'm embarrassed for you

 

1108

00:56:02,826 --> 00:56:04,728

to stop making the man for the job.

 

1109

00:56:04,728 --> 00:56:06,529

It's a comfortable.

 

1110

All right, listen,

 

1112

00:56:09,999 --> 00:56:11,067

I was going to ask you another question,

 

1113

00:56:11,067 --> 00:56:12,469

but I'm. I'm afraid to.

 

1114

00:56:12,469 --> 00:56:13,470

Let's be honest.

 

1115

00:56:13,470 --> 00:56:16,172

You're a talker, Rob.

 

1116

00:56:16,172 --> 00:56:17,607

Well, we got to.

 

1117

00:56:17,607 --> 00:56:17,907

Bill,

 

1118

00:56:17,907 --> 00:56:20,910

is there anything we should ask you?

 

1119

00:56:22,178 --> 00:56:23,346

Is there anything we missed or anything

 

1120

00:56:23,346 --> 00:56:26,349

I'd like to bring up,

 

1125

00:56:32,188 --> 00:56:34,090

1126

00:56:34,090 --> 00:56:34,758

00:56:34,758 --> 00:56:36,025

have nothing to do with the podcast,

 

1128

00:56:36,025 --> 00:56:38,995
