The future looks bright My handshake is better than anything I ever signed, right here.

Patrick Bet-David (0:26)

You guys just missed a very special moment because we, Tom didn't have his headset foot on, and we made Tom feel like the podcast started, and we were literally doing a podcast, and then the music went out, and then Tom looked at us, pissed off. Tom, the podcast is officially live.

Tom Ellsworth (0:40)

I wasn't pissed off.

Patrick Bet-David (0:41)

You were furious, your face turned red. By the way, that tie by Stefano Ricci, great tie, beautiful tie that Tom's got on, also the same tie that the president wears, by the way, just so you know.

SPEAKER_6 (0:52)

I think it's so loud and proud.

SPEAKER_7 (0:53)

That is correct.

Patrick Bet-David (0:55)

By the way, it makes sense, President of the United States, I mean, you got two different things. So folks, I hope you had a good weekend. There's a lot of crazy stuff that's going on here.

Elon posts a video that says, here's what the future of the world could look like, and where many of us would be living in. And it literally looks like a movie, but the reality of it is, if you know this guy, he's got the money, he's got the backing, he's got the work ethic, he's got the vision. He read a book many, many years ago that got him to believe he's gonna be doing this. So we'll talk about that video. Greenland, at first, everybody's like, Greenland, what are you talking about? We're gonna take over Greenland. This guy's crazy. Why does he keep talking about stuff like this? Guess what's getting done? A deal's getting done with Greenland, where US is gonna have a presence there to have a clear shot if Russia all of a sudden decides to go crazy. We got a clear shot. So when from this guy's out of his mind to, well, maybe we're doing this deal and it's actually happening. So and then aside from that, a couple other stories that happened, the Holdout Juror that we found that based on a couple of the jurors that dox them saying he's a black man and, you know, oh my God, and you know, all this other shows that came out talking about it. He posted a picture with him and his kid.

And we'll get into that. And Patrick Clancy was on 60 Minutes.

And on 60 Minutes, they were asking him questions about if his wife Lindsay ever asked for an apology or not. You have to hear his answer. And he explains holding his eight month old, which you were talking about. And we'll address that as well. Trump banning CNN, Politico, Ms Now. I'm not sure that's a good idea. But Obama came up and said, imagine if I were to say that Fox News can't do this. And there's a clip of him literally doing that, which kind of wasn't a good weekend for Obama. I'm sure he still had a decent weekend, but a lot of the older stories came out. Shane Kiffin leaves Ole Miss, goes to LSU. They play against each other. I don't know if you're following this or not. Crazy ending, but the story is even crazier. We'll talk about that a little bit, maybe five minutes at the end of the podcast, but it is an interesting story. Yankees out of nowhere over the weekend raised $2.6 billion from Apollo, who comes in at a 16% position of the company, putting the Yankees at a $16.25 billion valuation. At that number, I think the Yankees will be the most valuable sports team in the world, maybe tied with the Cowboys. That's how close it would be.

Vincent Oshie (3:24)

Will we be able to buy players like the Dodgers are?

Patrick Bet-David (3:27)

They're getting money now. So if they're getting money, what they choose to do with that money is going to be on strategy, a couple moves that they'll make. But that was a big, because everybody in baseball officially made... If you own a sports team, you made money this weekend. If you own any shares in sports teams, you had a pretty good weekend this weekend.

Tom Ellsworth (3:44)

That's not sarcastic.

Patrick Bet-David (3:45)

That's true.

Tom Ellsworth (3:46)

Every owner should be sent in the biggest, baddest bottle of wine to House of Diner.

Patrick Bet-David (3:50)

No question about it.

Tom Ellsworth (3:51)

Thank you.

Patrick Bet-David (3:52)

No question about it. And aside from that, with a couple other stories that we got going on with Russia and Ukraine, Putin preparing to escalate war, and the president saying they want to build a military base in Poland. It's like, wait, you're building a military base? I thought you guys are not going to keep going east. No, we are going to build a military base. Why are you building a military base? And on the weekend, Zelensky thanks Trump, yet at the same time, Ukraine launches thousands of drones at Russia, including hundreds fired at Moscow, in largest attack ever.
