Speaker A:
in extra time to win the:
Speaker A:
Or 1 nil, as they probably say in Europe in what may have been Messi's final World cup match.
Speaker A:
What's your one sentence eulogy for Messi's World cup career?
Speaker B:
You know, Messi, the God of football, I think he's shown a lot of glory over the years, but this was glorious, but also a bit of a comeback to earth.
Speaker B:
A little humanity there at the end.
Speaker B:
So maybe not the way we want to see him go out, but the way people go out in general.
Speaker A:
Oh, really?
Speaker A:
Okay, very nice.
Speaker B:
I like how you did that.
Speaker A:
I like how you did that.
Speaker A:
All right, Brandon, it was national Ice Cream Day this past Sunday.
Speaker A:
How did you celebrate?
Speaker C:
Yeah, so a little bit of context.
Speaker C:
So my family, on Sundays we always have dessert, right?
Speaker C:
Like we always have a nice meal.
Speaker C:
We always make a homemade dessert and it's summertime and so we made homemade snow cones.
Speaker B:
Right?
Speaker C:
Homemade snow cones, homemade custard.
Speaker C:
You know, it's a, it's a family favorite treat that my kids have, so that's how we celebrate.
Speaker A:
You guys make homemade custard?
Speaker C:
Yeah, it's actually pretty easy.
Speaker C:
It's like four ingredients.
Speaker C:
We toss it.
Speaker C:
We have like an ice cream maker that, you know, toss it in, freezes, you know, makes it in 20 minutes.
Speaker C:
It's actually, it's pretty good.
Speaker A:
Oh God.
Speaker A:
My wife's going to be listening to this.
Speaker A:
She's going to go buy a custard making machine.
Speaker A:
Any good?
Speaker A:
Any flavors are.
Speaker A:
What are your go to flavors?
Speaker C:
Yeah, so for, for the snow cone, we actually went to Hanson's a few years ago in New Orleans.
Speaker C:
Amazing, right?
Speaker C:
So we tried to like replicate some of the food that we really like.
Speaker C:
So my go to favor favorite is coconut ginger lime, which sounds really funny, but they're really good.
Speaker C:
So give it a try.
Speaker A:
Snow cones are awesome for flavor, experimentation.
Speaker A:
Yeah, 100%.
Speaker A:
Like we, I, I had something very similar like that when I was in Hawaii recently.
Speaker A:
All right, Alex, Avengers Doomsday's trailer released on Monday.
Speaker A:
What has you geeking out about it the most?
Speaker A:
And if you're not a fan, what do you think people are geeking out about it the most?
Speaker B:
You know, I am pretty excited about this movie.
Speaker B:
The last, the last Marvel movie I saw that.
Speaker B:
I was excited about the vendors movie.
Speaker B:
I think the smaller, the smaller storylines don't resonate as much.
Speaker B:
So there's so much to like see in this movie.
Speaker B:
I'm, I'm Actually geeking a little bit about a little teaser of Captain America at the end, and I wasn't quite sure what was going on there.
Speaker B:
So I'm intrigued to see what's there and if Iron man shows up at all in the weird sort of same actor playing two roles view that could possibly happen.
Speaker B:
I think this could be a spectacular.
Speaker B:
Although I gotta admit, the current spectacular I'm working on is going to get tickets to The Odyssey and 70 millimeter IMAX film, which I have to wait a month for.
Speaker A:
Tell me about it.
Speaker B:
See that.
Speaker B:
And hopefully the trailer will be there as well.
Speaker A:
Tell me about it.
Speaker A:
Yeah, man, I'm feeling the same pain.
Speaker A:
I tried to get tickets this week.
Speaker A:
I couldn't do it.
Speaker A:
So I'm.
Speaker A:
I'm not going to see it on imax.
Speaker A:
I'm gonna go see it with the family.
Speaker A:
Just in the regular old theater experience, which I hope I don't miss out, but maybe I'll go see it at the IMAX later.
Speaker A:
But, yeah, that movie is supposed to be amazing.
Speaker A:
Yeah, I feel the same way about, about Doomsday too.
Speaker A:
I'm pretty geeked up about it.
Speaker A:
All right, Brandon, last one.
Speaker A:
A meteorite that crashed into a New Jersey home reportedly contained a alien world chemistry.
Speaker A:
That's a direct quote.
Speaker A:
Alien world chemistry.
Speaker A:
What's the closest you have ever come to contact with aliens?
Speaker A:
This conversation with Alex and I have excluded, of course.
Speaker C:
Yeah, it's a great question.
Speaker C:
You know, personally, haven't had a ton of close contact.
Speaker C:
Thankfully, though, I had this experience once where I went to a friend's house and they were talking about a UFO sighting and they brought up their phone and it was one of like those really grainy images where you see.
Speaker C:
You saw like lights in the sky moving around in strange ways.
Speaker C:
Couldn't really tell what was going on, but after that I was like, I don't know what to say to you.
Speaker C:
Like, so, really, really weird experience, but that's the closest I've come.
Speaker A:
So your contact is looking askew at someone who said they had contact with an alien.
