Chapter 2: What happened with Matt's flight to New York?
Thanks to Connor O'Donnell, Jacob Stutz, Max Curtis. Thanks to our guests, Kylan Mills. We've lost Marshall. Thanks to Davis Martin. Come on, Marshall! And Russ Dorsey. And now it's time for Transition, brought to you by Tour Coatings. High-performance coatings for your home or business. TourCoatings.com. Live from Maine, it's Matt Spiegel. Lawrence Holmes is here. Hi, Lawrence. Hi, Matt.
Hey. Hey, everybody. Hello, everybody. Hi, Matt. I'm stranded at L.L. Bean. I can't get away from L.L. Bean. Now I'm marooned in Maine thanks to our friends at American Airlines and the weather gods of Chicago, Illinois.
It's probably better that you're there to tell you the truth because the last 24 hours in the city, beautiful, has been quite rough.
Threats were imminent. That's what it seemed like. So, yeah, I was supposed to come out of New York yesterday morning and the airline said, we're going to route you through Bangor, Maine. I said, OK, cool. And then after 10 hours in the airport yesterday, they canceled that flight, the connecting flight in Bangor, Maine. And and now here I am. So actually, I'm broadcasting live.
You can see it on Twitch. I'm in front of Stephen King's house here in Bangor, Maine.
That is amazing that you did that.
Do you get lobster? Like, what do you do?
He got lobster roll before our meeting. Twice in 16 hours.
That's it, right? That's what you do. That's the default.

Chapter 3: What interesting locations did Matt visit in Maine?
It's not Paisley Park. You can't just roll up.
Prince doesn't just let anybody into Paisley Park anyway. That's true. I've been to Paisley Park with Prince in the building.
man so i was just hanging out in front of stephen king's house i'm like well i guess i'll take a picture and now here i am at the radio station but man it was creepy it was a creepy house i'll tell you that much is there a ferry that will take you to nova scotia because you're like right there oh wow good question do you have your passport on you i do not so i better not get on that yeah don't do that
How was the game, man?
I saw a cool picture with you and your bro while the party was going on at MSG. I mean, I know you'll probably be talking about it with Lawrence today, but give us a little bit of a feel for what that game was like.
Yeah, man, I'm dying to talk about it with Lawrence and Tanny and Alex and the listeners and just kind of revel in it a little bit because it was a really crazy sporting experience, as you can imagine. It was just beautiful. You guys know that feeling of what it's like when it's a communal ā
event and everybody feels the terror for two and a half quarters you know and then feels the joy of the comeback together and and everybody ends up feeling the same thing that's what my brother kept turning to me and say like everybody's feeling the same thing and that meant the celebs it meant the employees it meant the that you know the season ticket holders and it i theoretically meant the people who bought their one-offs for 30 grand a pop or whatever but you know

Chapter 4: How does the weather impact travel plans?
It was a very cool communal sports event, and there's a lot to get into from it.
I meant to look at the ratings on it because the anxiety came through the television, too, Speaks. As you're watching that, as I'm watching the end of the second quarter, I'm like, hmm, there's some missed opportunity here. And the thing that bothered me the most is they had an opportunity to get Wimby like 25 straight minutes of rest.
And because of the way they played the second quarter, where he's still out there at the end of the half, you're like, ooh, that might be an issue going forward. It was so poorly coached. It was so poorly played out. And then when the opportunity came for the Knicks to be like, you know, we've done this a lot. And then when it got to 15, I was like, that's a working margin.
You talk to anyone in basketball, and especially the NBA, 15 with a whole quarter left? It's a real game now. And your whole lead, whatever it was, doesn't matter because you couldn't kick it up to 30, 33 points, which is where you probably needed it to be for those body blows to land.
Yeah, I mean, the game stuff, they blew it, obviously, but the Knicks went back and took it. But I've never seen anything like that, and it's never happened before. An NBA team scores 76 or more in the first half. and scores 30 or less in the second half. That has never happened before in any game, regular season or playoffs. So you've never seen a team that hot and then that cold.
It shouldn't, frankly. It really shouldn't happen.
It would not have happened under Pop. Let's all be very clear. It's not just a young team. It was a young coach exposed.
It felt like a phone-a-friend moment. Yes. If Pop's available, call him during the timeout. Wow. Seriously.
So this is fascinating to hear from you guys, because obviously I saw some on postgame. We went back home and watched the fourth quarter on TV, back to my brother's house, and watched postgame. But seeing Chuck putting it on the Spurs, if we were doing impressive by the Knicks or inept by the Spurs, are you guys in the inept by the Spurs more?

Chapter 5: What insights does Matt share about the sports event atmosphere?
Not with Wimby on the floor, too. You've got to really pick your poison at that point.
So, Matt, the guy who looks exactly like you is your brother, huh?
Yeah.
He really does.
I saw the picture and I was like, oh, they're related. Just a little more gray.
That's all.
Yeah, people said Ted Danson.
Oh, that's good. That's good. Yeah, that's my big bro. It's my archetypal sports fan big bro. He's the guy. I switched the background now. I want to give 92.9 the tickets. I got to give them their flowers, man.

Chapter 6: What are the implications of the recent NBA game discussed?
It's like live and local radio. Killing it. Here in Bangor, Maine.
Look at that. There he is at the radio station.
Do you have a station mug? They gave me a mug. The dude gave me a ride to go get a lobster roll, and in exchange I did 15 minutes on his afternoon show. That's what just happened. That sounds lovely.
That's actually amazing. Always costs something. Right? Yeah.
That's the way it's supposed to work, man. And it's beautiful up here. Mitch already asked me if I'm buying a vacation home. I can't afford one. But, you know, in a decade, maybe? So I'm putting down roots with the afternoon show here. We had great chemistry for 15 minutes. After I worked with Lawrence, what do you ā Bangor, Maine. Oh, look at that. Lawrence, when are you going to Montreal?
Because that's when me and Baby T take over. But then eventually I'll end up in Bangor with Mark Paulette, my guy.
You're not far from Montreal either, by the way.
Oh, yeah.
That's absolutely true.
