And Massey lines it into right center field. Tolbert runs into the third baseman, Suarez. But he will score easily, and Michael Massey has another long at bat that results in a clutch RBI. Lofton has not hit a home run yet this year.

Chapter 3: What challenges did Nate face while writing 'Perfect Pitch'?

160.524 - 181.812 Soren Petro

You can hit me up on the Twitter. It's at Soren Petro, S-O-R-E-N-P-E-T-R-O. An award-winning lineup coming your way today. Nate Bucati is going to be with us any moment. Any moment, Nate Bucati will storm in here. We're going to talk about his new book, which I did not bring with me because that would have made far too much sense. I have a copy, too. He gave me a copy.

0

181.852 - 182.974 Unknown

If you need to look at it.

0

182.994 - 199.956 Soren Petro

Yeah, it would be nice because then I could at least quote the title. You think that maybe, just maybe, I would thank you very much. Because one of these is for McDowell. I'm not taking it. I just need to see it. Just hand me one, man.

0

200.217 - 203.977 Unknown

There you go. You're shaking your head at me. At least I remembered to bring a book.

0

204.699 - 226.003 Soren Petro

Everything that's ever been handed to you in this building is in that room. You didn't remember. You just don't take anything home, including socks and shirts. Let's not, you know. You have the book. You got it on me. Congratulations. It's not because of a witty intellect, however. I have the book. One of us has the book. The other doesn't.

226.023 - 226.444 Unknown

I do, too.

226.965 - 247.253 Soren Petro

Now you do. Perfect pitch. How Kansas City became the heart of American soccer and landed the World Cup by Nate Bucati with Rustin Dodd forward by Matt Beisler, who you hear. How about that? In the program, yeah. Pretty good. Big names. I think people love it. Listen, I know I've talked to Nate a couple times about it. 1,700 pages seems like a lot. It does.

248.65 - 254.155 Unknown

It seems like a lot. And four-point type? Yes. Single space, no pictures.

254.396 - 260.121 Soren Petro

Are you reading the Bible? No, it's twice as long. No pictures. But I'd go for it. Just dive right in.

Chapter 4: How does Nate describe the impact of the World Cup on Kansas City?

260.141 - 261.122 Soren Petro

It's a real page-turner.

0

261.943 - 264.505 Unknown

War and Peace is like a pamphlet next to this book.

0

264.525 - 281.02 Soren Petro

No, it's actually the perfect size. It's 170 pages, easy to read. I don't know what type set, but Nate Bucati is an author. He's a published author. Yep. Never thought those words would come out of my mouth.

0

281.24 - 296.122 Unknown

And not self-published, which you can do nowadays. This is actual published. I mean, congrats to all you that are self-published. He had a book signing last week and it was sold out. No, he's the real deal. I'm saying the other people that are like, oh, self-published. I know you weren't.

0

296.182 - 303.092 Unknown

I was saying that anyone who does is like, he had a book signing last week and it was sold out in the morning for a six o'clock book signing.

303.308 - 330.162 Soren Petro

He's a big deal, Nate Bucati. You see him on the Apple TV. That's when you know you're big. You know who's on Apple TV? Like Tom Hanks. Yeah. John Hamm has a show on there. What are the other Apple TV folks? F1 stars are there. And Nate. And Nate. And... I made Nate my avatar on Apple TV as well. Nice. Yeah, he's one of the avatars you can use.

331.123 - 358.866 Unknown

Go for it. And the subtitle of the book, How Kansas City Became Heart of American Soccer, kind of fits into why people showed up and blew up his book signing. It proved that backed up what the book was about in the first place, what I meant to say. I should have thought about that first. Well, I'm glad you didn't. It's always better when you're, you know, just rambling. I dig the new Clemson hat.

359.487 - 362.011 Soren Petro

I do have a new Clemson. If you're watching on the stream, yeah.

Chapter 5: What insights does Nate provide about the soccer community in Kansas City?

362.031 - 366.738 Unknown

I like, I love simple designs and bright and bold colors.

0

367.199 - 367.419 Soren Petro

Okay.

0

367.439 - 371.005 Unknown

That is my kind of hat. That's 10 out of 10 on my hat.

0

371.025 - 392.293 Soren Petro

Okay. You like this one better than the purple with the orange C? Yes. Okay. Good to know. So Nate will be here. We'll get his thoughts on my hat. Then in the 3 o'clock hour, we'll play There Can Be Only One. A little Stump the Chumps. Peter Yates Enoch will join us. Todd Lebo will finally do some work today. Sam McDowell on the 4. Remember, we did a flip-flop.

0

392.273 - 418.821 Soren Petro

We had Blair on in the 4 o'clock hour on Tuesday. So if you missed that and you want to hear some Blair today, just make sure you download that podcast. It's on the 810 app. You can download the podcast. It would be hour number three from Tuesday, the 4 o'clock hour. But Sam McDowell is in today. And I know because Kyle has yet to figure out how to do the thin line podcast

419.881 - 435.366 Soren Petro

On the Excel for the show sheet. Our show sheet is like an Excel that's formatted to be a one sheet. But you can tell when he copies and pastes because he's got the extra bold line. Which, does that irritate you as much as it irritates me?

436.968 - 439.392 Unknown

A little, yeah, pretty much. I don't know how the...

Chapter 6: What are the expectations for the U.S. soccer team's performance in the World Cup?

440.789 - 446.678 Unknown

I don't know what he would have copied down from. The bold line should be at the top, not the bottom, if he copied it from the top thing.

0

446.918 - 449.562 Soren Petro

Yeah. That's kind of weird. We're going to have to work on that with him.

0

449.802 - 450.063 Unknown

Yeah.

0

450.584 - 452.406 Soren Petro

We'll get that figured out there.

0

452.506 - 462.401 Unknown

Yeah, that's absolutely the sponsor. That's what happened. Yeah. The thing is, if you just type the J, it puts it there anyway. That's what I was doing.

464.885 - 466.347 Soren Petro

You've got all kinds of bold lines.

466.367 - 473.476 Unknown

I do a lot of things wrong, but I think the thin and thick lines... Nope. Should not be at the top of the list.

473.496 - 475.278 Soren Petro

No. There's many things you do worse.

475.438 - 476.54 Unknown

I agree. But they're on the list.

Chapter 7: How does Nate's personal journey influence his perspective on soccer?

521.542 - 522.443 Unknown

Make those a little bit lighter.

0

522.463 - 524.765 Soren Petro

It separates the hours better. Don't mess with that.

0

525.126 - 546.587 Unknown

No. Do it the way it's been said. So darker lines is bad, lighter lines is also bad. I'm the only one who looks at this sheet, so I want it the way I want it. That's not entirely true. So darker lines is bad, lighter lines is also bad. I want it the way I want it. I know. It's your show sheet.

0

546.827 - 573.037 Soren Petro

David Lesky will be here. Can we move on? Come on in, Nate. For now. Way to hustle in, buddy. Super effort. I'm proud of you. Stop on by. So anyway, we've got a lot coming your way once we get done with Blowhard here, who's going to outward us like four to one from here on out. Hey, Nate. Hi. Aren't you glad you came in, Nate?

0

573.057 - 573.497 Nate Bukaty

Am I on time?

574.739 - 579.865 Soren Petro

I don't know. I don't really remember what time. You actually are. He said 2.10, didn't he?

579.905 - 580.325 Nate Bukaty

Yeah, he did.

Chapter 8: What lasting impact does Nate believe the World Cup will have on Kansas City?

580.345 - 589.756 Nate Bukaty

But you made it sound like I was late or something, so I didn't know if there was a miscommunication. I'm not going to let you. Oh, look at Nate nailing it again. Great to have you here, Nate. I'm not going to say that.

0

589.776 - 601.202 Unknown

That's not coming. You just meet him for the first time today? I'm kind of surprised that there was so much guff. I was expecting a jolly open with no sarcasm.

0

602.788 - 605.779 Soren Petro

I thought people might be happy to see me.

0

606.805 - 610.748 Nate Bukaty

How are you, Nate? Oh, man, it's good to see the things. You know, I've known you guys for a long time.

0

610.808 - 622.398 Soren Petro

It's good to know that things haven't changed. It's been a little while, yeah. It goes back to 1951. It goes Korea, if I'm not mistaken. No. It's the 90s, though. It was.

622.758 - 629.624 Nate Bukaty

It was the 90s. 1999. Yeah. Yeah, how about that? 27 years. Oh, boy. Maths.

629.664 - 631.005 Soren Petro

You don't look at all like you used to.

631.045 - 631.566 Nate Bukaty

No.

631.946 - 633.648 Soren Petro

You were once coined.
