Matt Spiegel 0:49
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.
Laurence Holmes 1:07
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.
Matt Spiegel 1:14
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.
Laurence Holmes 1:39
That is amazing that you did that.
Leila Rahimi 1:40
Do you get lobster? Like, what do you do?
Laurence Holmes 1:42
He got lobster roll before our meeting. Twice in 16 hours.
Leila Rahimi 1:46
That's it, right? That's what you do. That's the default.
Matt Spiegel 1:49
I'm having a great adventure here in Maine, actually. I went to see Stephen King's house this morning, and I got there, and I'm like, all right, cool. And then I wanted to go in, but you can't go in because it's somebody's house. Like, I thought you did tours there. I was fascinated. very wrong.

What interesting locations did Matt visit in Maine?

Matt Spiegel 2:05
It's not Paisley Park. You can't just roll up.
Mark Grote 2:08
Prince doesn't just let anybody into Paisley Park anyway. That's true. I've been to Paisley Park with Prince in the building.
Matt Spiegel 2:14
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?
Marshall Harris 2:38
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.
Matt Spiegel 2:50
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 – 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

How does the weather impact travel plans?

Matt Spiegel 3:36
It was a very cool communal sports event, and there's a lot to get into from it.
Laurence Holmes 3:43
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.
