What is the main focus of this episode?
Welcome to Pablo Torre Finds Out. I am Pablo Torre. Today's episode is brought to you by DraftKings. DraftKings, the crown is yours. And today we're going to find out what this sound is.
I get great cargo shorts and undies right after this ad.
You're listening to DraftKings Network. Kennt ihr auch diesen einen Freund, der morgens einfach so ruckzuck aus dem Bett und danach aus dem Grinsen gar nicht mehr rauskommt? Der sogar noch vor dem ersten Kaffee unverschämt gut gelaunt ist und mit der Morgensonne um die Wette strahlt? Furchtbar. Ekelhaft.
Wie kann man nur so ausgeruht sein? Ganz einfach. Trainiere deinen Schlaf und werde auch du zum Morgenmenschen. Mit der Galaxy Watch 7 oder dem Galaxy Ring und der Samsung Health App.
Glad, David, that you're here and you're not complaining about anything yet.
Well, you did clean up my hair, I guess. I don't think he complained about your hair. It was an observation. Observations are not complaints. I wish I had that hair. You don't look great. I wish I had that hair.
Isn't Observations are not Complaints the title of the David Sampson story? Just a series of observations, totally neutral observations.
You above all people know that. I do observe a lot. I don't complain much. I don't like the dearth of snacks that exist right now in the office. I'm hungry. I'm grumpy.
John, can you put your headphones on, I guess, is the other thing. Very good. Jesus Christ. First time, John? When did we start doing this show? Coca, when did we start doing this show? Can you tell me in my ear? Because I had my headphones on when we started this, when I started doing this with John Skipper.
So the way it started, I started just with John and we were missing a third piece. And when we asked you to host this. August 2023. Wow. Do you remember what you said? You said, listen, I'm going to listen anyway. I might as well participate. So therefore it's the same hour that I'm spending. That's right. It was sort of like Moe and Larry without John. Curly. Curly. Curly.
Curly.
I said, yes, that's true.
I mean, this chair, the structural integrity is already a bit on the brink. It's good to see both of you guys, by the way. John, David. John, are you happy to be here? David is seemingly always, as himself, kind of conflicted. I'm very happy to be here.
Including with you, Mr. Samson. Thank you, John. Very nice to be here. And good, good head of hair.
Are you crying? Well, what we love is podcasting. We love the game, David. We love what we do together. I have a story before we start. No one asked you for the story. It's a funny story about this show. It's a true story about this show. I was in an Uber on the way to the studio and this had not happened to me yet. The driver of the Uber knew about, recognized my name and me and didn't ask about Survivor, didn't ask about nothing personal, didn't ask about the Marlins. He was asking and mentioned that he listens to Sporting Class. That happened about 20 minutes ago.
And what did he want to know about us?
Just, that's it. He just was happy to see us.
He is captive to the radio. Yeah. He's driving all day. He's got a lot of choices, though. But we have a lot of things to say. Maybe he saw David holding up the app and mouthing to him, There's a tip at the end of this.
If you compliment our sports business show,
I have a set tip. What is it? It's basically between 15 and 18% depending on the size of Uber, on how expensive Uber is. Over $100, 15%, under $100, 18%. That's helpful. Du machst das immer. Du machst es nicht so.
Ich mache das automatische Ding. Ich schaue nicht mal. Fünf Star und was auch immer die automatische Option ist, ich sage, gib ihm das. Da ist eine Unterschiede zwischen mir und dir.
Und die Unterschiede zwischen den drei von uns ist... I never have any interest in rating. You know, every time I make a phone call now, it says, rate your phone call. I'm like, well, I was in an argument. Does that mean it's a bad phone call? Or are you asking about the quality of it? Just hit the not now. Hit not now. No, I do. Every time.
