Welcome to Pablo Torre Finds Out. I am Pablo Torre, and today we're going to find out what this sound is.
LeBron James actually ran past me, and then somebody else ran past me. I'm like, I know he's not here. Right after this ad.
You're listening to DraftKings Network.
We are laughing about the relative heights of our chairs, but when I was at ESPN, I always made sure I had the highest chair. Wait, in a meeting. I see you.
You wanted to look down upon everybody.
No, I wanted them to have to look up to me.
I feel like this, again, is a big illustration of how we think about topics, power, stature.
All of that matters. I was telling Levitard on a recent show that I would do conversations with players only standing on the top step of the dugout with them in the dugout because I didn't want to go in with the power dynamic of me, or I would do it sitting down on the bench in the dugout. but I wouldn't want to do any sort of serious conversation with the player or with anyone where there is a huge height difference.
It sounds like you were on the top step quite a bit then.
Yes, I was. And there's some pictures online where I'm not on the top set and I'm walking or I'm talking to Stanton and there's such a big difference. And it's not where I want to be. So with the chair here, I noticed you screwed me. You moved chairs. I don't move any of the chairs. Well, there's no side table and this chair doesn't go up and down the way that chair does. And I always take that chair with the lever on the right. And now John has it. And John is purposefully.
The lever of power.
It's the lever of power. And John is doing it.
If that makes you happy, John. I came in and sat in the chair that was at the spot. I always sit in. That's always been in the third spot. I did not ask anybody to move the chairs around. I don't believe you. There may be people who are looking for promotions and extra bonuses who just did it for me.
We just want to look up to you, John.
That's all.
We just want to look up to you.
for anybody to do anything. Have you ever noticed when I sit, I'm never back. I sit back straight. I sit legs forward. I'm only using the top front part of a chair. You're on the top step of the chair. That's exactly how I do it. But I don't have to worry about hitting my head on anything overhead. Like I don't walk through a door worrying about hitting my head the way Skipper does. I just have to think about other stuff.
You guys are so weird. I mean, I say that lovingly, but sincerely. That's weird. David has a beard today. Can we acknowledge that?
It looks like you can't grow a beard. Like, you just look messy. Well. There's all these patches that make it look like you lasered in a weird spot.
It's patchy. You think this has a lasered, manicured beard? Well, it's smooth as a baby's tuchus, right on the left and right of your chin. I can't do that. I can't grow here. These are barren. But why? What's going on? I just like mixing it up sometimes.
Okay. It's good. Looks good. Just my target demographic, John Skipper. Yes, it is full. It's a little more gray, but thank you. Compliments from Skipper.
Looks like a good sort of combination of shaggy and formatted.
Can I just say that I don't buy it when David says, I just felt like it. You do nothing. All right, here's the story.
What's the story? I had some pre-cancer stuff on my face. So I had to have a procedure. And the procedure was causing a bit of dryness and also made my face look a little blotchy. So I shaved two days before the procedure as I was supposed to. And I have not put a razor to my face since because everything is still healing.
That's good investigative reporting. I mean. You stuck to it. You didn't accept.
Bad content, good journalistic instinct. But you're okay. Can we declare this?
Yes. Okay. I should have used sunscreen as a kid. I mean, that's the bottom line. And I tried to get my kids to do it, and no one wants to use sunscreen. I don't quite get that.
Well, was it an option when you were a kid? It was not an option for me when I was a kid. Nobody... Sunscreen had not been invented? I have no idea, but no one ever mentioned the word sunscreen in the first 15 years of my life. Is that a money thing?
