Hi guys, so in this video, we're going to be taking a look at array indexing and how to access items in an array So there are two basic operations. We can perform on arrays The first is data dot length and this returns the number of items in the array and Then the second operation is data i where i is the index and this returns the item at index i of the array Now we know that i equals zero is the first index of the array because we count from zero Therefore data zero is how we access the first item in the array Now if we wanted to access the last item in the array i equals data dot length minus one Is the last index Again because we're counting from zero if we use just data dot length We're going to be out of bounds of the array So to access the final item we use data data dot length minus one So just keeping in mind that the first index of the array is index zero It's easy to see for example That we can access the third item in the array with data two The fourth item in the array with data three And just so on and so on like that But what if we want to work backwards and access say the second to last item in the array Well, we already know that the last item is found at The index data dot length minus one So it follows that the second last item can be accessed at index data data dot length minus one minus one or data data dot length minus two All right, so now let's just pop over to eclipse so that we can take a look at how this all works using an example array All right, so you can see here. I have an array Containing eight items, so let's go ahead and try to access some of the items in this array So if I want if I type this print statement So if I access Data index zero, obviously if we go ahead and run that that's going to print out the first item in the array now if I Change that zero to a three just before I run it. Have a quick think about what you think it's going to print out All right, I'll go ahead and run that and It's printed out 48 and you can see that the If we start at index zero, we've got zero one two three the item at index three is 48 Now obviously if we want to go ahead and print out the last item in the array We can use what we did earlier and we can print out The item at index data dot length minus one All right, we'll run that and Yep, six. That's the last item in the array Now what if I change that to? We'll say data dot length minus five So again, just have a quick Think about what that's going to print out and We'll go ahead and run this and it's printed out 48 and you can see here if The item at data dot length minus one is six. We're just going to move to the left Once for each further count. So we've got minus one minus two minus three minus four So the item at data dot length minus five is 48 All right, so that is pretty much it for this video. That was just a short introduction To array indexing and accessing items in an array And in the next video in this series, we're going to be looking at how to traverse an array So thank you for watching. I hope you found this helpful and have a great day. Bye

your team to the sailors and of course the new and serving naval officers i want to echo some of the comments that uh that the skipper made for the families we recognize the sacrifice that you've made to put these people in this seat to give them to service to the country and so i just want to express on behalf of our united states navy in the united states of america i want to say thank you for your sacrifice and support in making this happen sometimes military service can be dangerous we will promise to do our best to keep them safe keep them well trained and to love them for the graduating class if you remember one thing today please remember that your time in the navy is a journey your career is not the destination and my journey started right here in this room 28 years ago i sat out there where you sit here in k hall and my journey took me to the bridge of an aircraft carrier and the version gulf to the Balkans with special forces hunting war criminals who racked during the surge to the white house during the obama administration most recently on the joint chiefs of staff helping the chairman of the joint chiefs of staff navigate some of our country's most challenging experiences in recent in recent history and i never would have imagined when i sat there in your seats where my journey would take me so let's talk about where you are today at the start of this journey the united states is in a great power competition a competition with china and russia we're still threatened by violent extremists rogue nations such as iran north korea and that's the the world that you enter as you serve your country and where is the navy going where will the navy take you on your journey well right now we are and we intend to maintain our status to the world's greatest navy 296 deployable ships we're 445 thousand active and reserve forces it's important to take stock of where we are today and to think about the events of the last couple of months we put an end to ground combat in afghanistan and we've ended our armed conflict in iraq and so in to many degrees the united states navy the united states of america so give us a second sometimes sitting in formation is tough and so we're gonna make sure we're taking care of our shipmate here for those of you who can't see in the back we're sitting up we're getting some we're getting some fresh air i think we're gonna be okay hey so for the rest of you guys sitting in the front seat take your hands off your lap shake it out a little bit okay let's let's use the at ease like comes at you fast right you never know what's gonna happen so prior to prior to 9 11 the navy was a preeminent force of national power then after 9 11 we shifted to a ground combat focus so what you all should be thinking about as we end our ground combat is what's next for the navy and to have listened to the cno recently he'll tell you that the expectation is the navy will be called on once again as our ground forces return to garrison to be that preeminent force of national power because we're gonna be you know we are expeditionary and we are forward deployed and that will be the navy that you you will all join and you will all enter the other thing and i'm gonna guarantee you on your journey because i'm gonna guarantee you that there will be change when i sat in your seats in 1994 the berlin wall had just fallen we were still in the end of the cold war and i spent the first part of my career in a post-cold war environment where the where america didn't didn't wasn't threatened necessarily by great power competition and then 9 11 and we spent the last 20 years fighting extremists who attacked us on our homeland so you need to think about how you're gonna fit into all of this a changing world a changing navy you're all subject matter experts and i imagine that many of you have advanced degrees and that's a big part of why you're here today but let's put that in context you know looking back that's who you were students of the law medicine nursing healthcare engineering but this is no longer about you this is now about us your naval officers you'll begin your your career in support of our navy our family our sailors our country you need your experience and you will be called upon to provide your very best in support of our national defense how many prior listed do we have show hands hold them up high you need to take the experience that you have earned in your time in the military you need to share it with everybody else to serve with you guys put your hands down and for the rest of you i urge you listen to them listen to that experience listen to the experience of prior and current sailors they will help you through this so moving forward on your journey just a few words of advice first and foremost always do the right thing make sure that your moral and ethical compass is pointed due north my first day here going through what you just went through i walked into a classroom and the instructor walked in stood in front of the class crinkled up a piece of paper threw it at the trash can and missed and they looked at the trash sitting there on the floor next to the trash can he walked over and he picked it up he put it in the trash can he turned to us and said that's all you need to know about being a naval officer walked out of the classroom it's about doing the right thing when no one's watching and that lesson stuck with me for the rest of my career set the example be the leader you want to drive your climate you know even as junior officers others will be looking at you be proactive about relationships be proactive about communication words credibility and relationships matter protect them they will help you always speak truth to power tell seniors subordinates peers not what they want to hear but what they need to don't burn bridges over single issues you'll need to walk back over those bridges self-care is important get enough sleep eat well pt breathe and study make it a habit and do it the rest of your career you'll be better for it finally take care of each other just as we did 10 minutes ago right there when you turn to took care of your shipmate get help of people needed let me repeat that get help when people needed so again if you remember one thing remember this is a journey not a destination you're brought on the team for your expertise and your excellence but make no mistake you are naval officers this journey of service is one that very few americans choose to take thank you for raising your right hand and joining us on our journey congratulations on your graduation i wish you the best of luck i look forward to seeing you out in the navy have no doubt if i could change places with you and sit there and start all over again on this journey i would do it in a heartbeat congratulations thank you Admiral french and captain hazenberg at the conclusion of each ods class several students are recognized by their

I'm talking about vocal music on the radio This brother right here, man. I come ladies and gentlemen without further ado big Oh I just did an event with him at a college. We he's giving back to the hbc us man a philanthropist Oh, man, I come To start is we just want to say thank you for all the work that you did Yeah, man, because you've you've been a part of a lot of the culture Yeah, I mean I took he was one of the first person when I got to let him call me legend. I was like, ooh big feel old I kind of started to get used to it and people call me a human other person call me og I'm like It's as I've been in Atlanta almost 10 years now and Look back on it, you know, like rap city ended 15 16 years ago He was still talking about it every day one day that went by somebody and say you bring it back Bring it back. Bring it back. It's a conversation if it doesn't happen.  We got to get the work. That's why that was the hardest thing about the band Never I could be outside damn My first question is I always thought you were from DC What brought you to the city? I went to university in maryland college park Okay on a partial track scholarship you run. Yeah Taught my hamstring my freshman year And it was I was in rehab and then I was my major needed a research Uh internship, so I went up to WPGC. Well, I was like because I had been DJ since 16 I was like five down, you know, I'm in a new place I can get some free records me some people and do all my stuff since I'm not running as many I was there like two months. I walked into the studio to get something from albedee Albedee was like he was like, hold on for a second. I watched him do a radio break and I was amazed like I was like I was like, I came to get the da da da da dee. He was like, I was like a question How much can you make doing this? Right? He's like, you made it way from 50,000 to five million He was like, oh, you about to show me this So I switched on the album and albie took me under his wing. I became his producer and his intern And then I just kept pushing I just kept saying somebody let me in and when I finally got my break to do nice on radio in DC That you know, like the whole thing was I knew I wasn't from DC But I had a roommate in college that was from temple hills So I had a good pulse of what the earlier was like and he ain't already taken me to dino's He had already taken me to east side to see go going on that So I was well indoctrinated and I knew it for me to fit in I didn't have to act like I was from DC, but I had to know DC Right, so that's what I did and that's why lots of people DC, but like now even on us And the new yorker like no even on us So I mean it's it's that's just how it kind of came about, but I love DC Round the Virginia gave me my first opportunity to beat me Beautiful man all the way now. What made you make the transition down here?  Which is like that midway point, you know, I mean and then transitioning all the way down to the south The true story.  I got fired.  I was on the contract. They had to pay me out the rest of my contract About six to eight months later. I was like, all right. I need to get some work. So I called Reggie. It was like, Reggie You need anybody down there? He said come down do a couple shifts. Let's see how it fit how it sound Um, they had some other things they were trying to move around and he was like, you want to come to Atlanta? I was like, sure Because I've been here all the time have been the looters events. I've been the tremendous You know all the stuff that was happening down here. So it was like it felt right. It was a right fit for me This is as it was becoming when I got here in 2013 what it is now It's all music film tv Everything that is what I do is on here. So it made a lot of sense The rap city come about how did The mogul the the main thing the big shebang now how did that come about? I was already on dc. This was bt was still in dc right and I used to I got a call from them. They just like we need a younger voice to do like little promo stuff So like I would go down there once a week and be like Teen something's brought you by snickers. Who be why we? Every time I was down there my plan worked in radio. I just kept pushing people I was just bumping the people. Hey, you need me to do something you need me to do something you need me to do something So about six months later. They had a Key pass out and great trend came to me. It was like we got the segment We want to try it one day a week. It was like this only two minutes. I was like, I don't give up It was called hip hop news Right and I would literally go shoot whatever the hip hop news was for the week for two minutes But I mean the first time it came on. I was like, I'm in 70 million holes for two minutes I was excited to tell me nothing so I kept doing that and then The end of the season happened It was two hosts at the time it was Big lesson Joe Claire. All right. Damn your original host Chris Thomas He's got that long hop in there Shout out to the mayor. Joe moved to new york last moved to la They needed somebody local in dc and since I was already doing a segment on the show That year was me Joe and last with the three hosts and krs One did the intro for the whole show and you couldn't tell me nothing that way Then the following year Stephen Hill took over and he I and Craig Henry sat down and came up with this concept. We all know it's the basement No, my goodness, man, and there's so much history that come out that building I just went and did something with red Grant who's running for mayor and you know, he was We went and did a tour of the building and I didn't you know being from the city I knew that the building was there, but you know, I was watching summoning everything But going in there and seeing all of the cubicles and he's showing us all of the history of what you guys laid down in that building It's amazing man. That's a lot of a lot of legendary stuff Y'all did coming out of that bt building a lot happened in the dc at that time If I was in the right place at the right time with the right set of skills a bunch of times And I just kept pushing I was relentless You know that came one of my before it was a hashtag that was my hashtag be relentless Like I was like, I know Oh You brought up the hashtag this was actually trending on twitter at one point the uh The freestyles Like they was trying to figure out who had the coldest rap city freestyles Who gets your vote give me some of your your top freestyles from the air from the air No Okay, one of my favorites was is was rap city the basherman, which was me elephant man Bujuban time And bobby condors was playing the track and that was big for me because Even today when I go to the caribbean, they are still talking about that one freestyle because they had never seen anything like that in jamaical or national television Camera and counting money, of course. That was Wayne Verse everybody talks about the way we're talking every time me and luda had three And the one that I remember the most is luda came in and he was like He said something like kidnapped free and hold it for it ran some fun for 10 000 And then I played right off of that in the freestyle when I jumped in and I was like some some I was like You got me all up in my feelings. Damn tan grand. You better bring 10 million and stuff like that. Everybody was like Me and luda had three epic ones. I mean, it was so many good ones ls one was kind of crazy dmx Of course There were so many iconic moments. I tell people there's no right or wrong answer Whatever felt the most amazing to you is what it was. All right, you know what I'm saying? I mean, but for you though, like Will you just name the ones that was the as far as the artist but as far as you what do you think you Know I grew up on krs one So going in with krs one going in with rock kim going in with ll. I didn't see I'm not with jay went in You did I was a little nervous I got excited and then he was going and I was like no you gotta do Yeah, this is when the blackout came out and I was like if I if I don't kill it after jay everybody's gonna talk about how I messed it up Right, so I was like Now you good Did all the episodes you did come out I believe all of them came out Because we did like it wasn't live, but we we taped them like two three days when they came out um I don't think there's any like Vault somewhere of things that we didn't shoot um But it was I mean it was a lot of fun to go in there every day and go head to head with some people I respected some people I didn't respect And uh, that's all I interview and people like Well, I mean the interview part is that's where to be a professional if I don't I ain't gotta love you I still got a job right so we're gonna talk when you talk, but when we get the boof If I felt like you wasn't up to par I came at some people a little harder than other people So because I was like, I know what I could do was like you now here's your 72 million homes Right here's your opportunity to sell 12 million albums You got to show out and I tell people you ain't gotta come up to the top for me Do whatever's gonna sell your album packs. Um, some people did better than others and Some people didn't Hey, it's like real talk with the camera went out you like Too sensitive man, they gonna be like I had some very some really dope memories though like the first time we ever saw Kanye West in the booth Okay, Kanye came in and Kanye was very much Kanye behind the scenes He wanted to if you watch it, I just saw it again for the first time out of there He shouts out all his artists glc, you know He wanted them to come in the booth with him the network said no because they didn't know him And he he was Kanye to the fullest.   That was I'm really talking to him on the set Like are you serious? And he was like, I do that do it. So he did any smash and it was just I mean, there was so many good moments that we saw and people didn't see and behind the scenes things So I'm really appreciative of that whole situation. I got one more about the about the freestyle Which one of the ladies came through and smashed it one of the ladies We had one that had the whole like a whole lady's first thing. Yeah, it was a rod digger Digger digger digger, only love Money in the middle. What's yet in the middle? Oh God Jazzy Joysters on the wheels and stills and I think it was Trina After all of them would did like a ladies first type thing in the booth. That was kind of dope Yes, I think missy came once Uh, we had some arms We had some other moments when people that you wouldn't expect to be in there destiny's child came Mary j came We closed it with mama tigger aka patty labelle She finally came downstairs. That was the man that we can't talk about anymore came by. Yeah, I was just about to ask I was gonna do it because we didn't really get a slipper You ain't know who moved your body like a snake, mom I was moving your body like a snake, mom Man, don't make a snake be listen to that n***a s***, man. Don't make it be Tigger on the tigger got fast on with him You do Yeah That was boy I got one that came out To that came out the snake and the snake remix. All right There was a remix to a j s song ice cream that never came out. You think it was on a j s You was on the ice You got me to read it Why don't you get out All 70 track and we was he was like, I sat there and I still remember that thing And I was playing all this ice cream references in the jane and I think my verse was um Whatever you need. I got that. I dream of cookies and cream strawberry pralines and chocolate Top that off with whipped cream and 10 cherries.  You are amazing ice cold.  I'm out to go full-time and put an album out had a couple meetings Uh had three meetings didn't like the way the meetings went. I was already doing rap city I had a radio show in new york at time We started power 105 in new york Yeah, I was running for when it first launched.  Um So I mean it was like I had two other hustles and I was like For me to put a hustle down because I was going if I'm a dude and I had a focus on it And I was like for me to put a hustle there in a in a platform there This deal got to be right and they was kind of Oh, we don't know we don't know we don't know the snake was I was going crazy. So I was like really we don't know So I was like The other difference for me is I had an outlet every day at four o'clock So anytime I went, you know, like the best that's why a lot of artists first album is their best They got 20 years of what they've been going through what they've been feeling. They just You know and they first album was like, okay Then the second album they got to go live some more to you know, put it together I was every day either or radio just doing my show rap city in the booth So I had lots of different ways to express myself. So I wasn't like So, I mean it I didn't get it is the music business and the business wasn't right.  It was cassidy michanda bounty killer and people don't know tigger And we was working on I did a mixtape full surface mixtape, which was like, you know, I did a verse on it uh, michanda's record at the time, but we was working it out working out and then it just didn't work out um, so I mean I got some songs and Me and swiss did some things together. So me like me and swiss always like you remember that journey? It was like, um It's been a lot of fun, man. We did a remix or something another song that didn't come out Uh, it was a it was a song for for rl rl had a song that swiss did and I think it was a remix, but it didn't come out But I was like even rl. But like y'all that verse. I remember that verse. So I mean the long story short is I I don't have any regrets Um, I did what I was supposed to do. I'm at where I'm supposed to be right, too I mean, I made it to the trap.  Even with doing all this like what keeps you just going? I think first of all most of the stuff that I do is fun You know hosting, you know for the falcons being a pa announcer for the hogs big ticket morning show of v103 um, I mean I had a new show this last past summer a vote for off top All the stuff that I get to do is usually fun And if it's not fun, it has to be so enormously Ridiculously lucrative that I'm like, all right, I'll do right. So I've been able to to move in that way in a lot of ways Um, other than I mean, I just like doing what I do. You know what I'm saying?  So that's kind of like the the thing that keeps me moving is I'm still viable or still, you know, somebody relevant You know, this is my 28th year in radio 25th in television God damn, I'm about to be 30 man I was a baby when you was first getting a job Finally got some old niggas up here Hey, let me ask you this man, as an older, as an older gentleman In the elder states, yeah, how do you find the new shit?  Some of it is better than others But I'm saying how do you find it because a lot of this shit? Oh, where do you locate? Yeah, where you located?  I don't work at the radio station So I'm Israel, what's crazy? My young nigga be like, hey, OG, this is one of the one, you might fold this one Yeah, so I just, apparently, super gremlin is the thing Right, yeah, yeah, that's a new shit If I am part of the super gremlins thing, I just had to find that out, you know, from other people I just, that's kind of the way around the station, I asked my young people at station Sturges Greg Street, Swamp Izzo, Peanut, I was like, all right, what's popping?  Yeah, because I don't want to get to that point I mean, for real I don't know, I mean, you know, when I say the money stopped being, because you just said if I'm doing something that's fun unless it's super duper lucrative, right? I'm sure there's a time where it didn't have to be super lucrative where you was just like, a check, I got it, whatever, you know what I mean? I learned at some point that not all the bags are good bags. So I've been offered some bags to do some things that wouldn't sit well with me or to be in places that I probably shouldn't be or, you know, like it was just, I remember like, like back then I remember that I got offered to do something with malt liquor and malt liquor wasn't, you know, like even though I drank it, I wasn't about to be running around telling everybody else to drink malt. Right, right, right. And then, so it was just like different, I always tell people, for y'all who are doing amazing well, I would tell you to always stay true to your brand, stay true to yourself. As long as you can get up in the morning, look yourself in the mirror and be like, I'm good with me and still cut the lights on and you should be happy, you know what I'm saying? You could always want bigger and better, but it got to start this. Like you got to be able to be like, all right, me and me is good. I feel good about me inside. I could wake up. I could still go to sleep. I ain't worried about, oh man, I should have did that. You know what I'm saying? That's the hardest trade-off with the money part. I would just continue to tell y'all the bag is, we all chasing the bag all day long, but sometimes you were like, yeah, maybe not. And the first time you do it, you'll notice it. It ain't, it's not like something specific happened. It's like, I don't know what you'd be like. That's great. I don't know about that one. You know what I'm saying? I don't want to do that. I don't want to do the Trump rally. I'll do it. I'll do it.  Pull up on the vote. What would you do? Sheet, what they won't do. I'm fed a charge of eating motherfuckers so much money. You're going to get your niggas laid back. Well, you know, we're going to get calls out there. He's going to make me a shot. I don't know what you're talking about. You know, we're going to be on the black people. Hey, niggas, a lot. A lot. Slavey was misinformation. Hell nah. I'm going to go back in there. Hell nah.  You know what I mean from Mississippi? You know what I mean? I don't even go home again. I've been waiting to leave you naked. I ain't waiting. I can't wait to buy some cookies. I love drunk watching this. I knew I had one of them.  Isn't he wonderful? Oh man. Man, is anybody that you ever wanted to get in the booth with that you didn't? He's gone before. Two people, big and pop, passed before the show happened. Anybody else I really wanted? I think I pretty much got in with just about everybody else. Thanks. I would have loved to get in with ODB, passed before it happened.  Oh my God. I just wanted to, I just wanted to have what his open and bar would have been. What if you got Michael Jackson in that moment? Man, that would have been so cool. Tigger, I got it, Tigger. Tigger, I got it, I got it. I just missed him at the, so the one time he came to BET was, I was backstage when he came off the stage and there was like a line of people and we was all waiting to be like, and if so he was like, right where you at, they meet him, go that way. And I was like, no. But she saw him. I saw him, it's close. It was close. That's it. That's it. No, I needed to get that mic up. Was he standing there or was he floating? He was kind of floating. Because that was also saying that nigga can go from over there to over there and nobody would even see him move. It was him and James Brown coming off the stage. God damn! Because that's what he did at the BET one. That's a lie. That's a lie. It was honor of James Brown and he came out and put the cape on James Brown and then did the little James Brown with James Brown and we was all like that. And as soon as I started, I was like, I'm going backstage because that normal side they're coming off of, I went backstage and was sitting there like this. I was going to say hi to Michael Jackson and he was like, I was like, damn, damn. I mean, about to miss Mike, that definitely would have called James. That's what he was saying. James Brown. That's what he was saying. That's what he was saying. I think that's what James Brown was going to do to see you and James Brown naked. See, that's it. That's a crazy story. I haven't come to those leagues and James Brown. I knew that. Well, what do you want me to do? What do you want me to do? I have nothing for you, James. What's one of the craziest rooms you've been in? You got the Michael Jackson, James Brown story.  Oh, that ain't mine. I was thinking about it for a second. So I remember one year, it was New Year's Eve in Miami, and we were at the Delano, I think. And I think Jamie Foxx and Snoop were before. So they had like this dinner. We went to Snoop's room, Snoop introduced. I don't really smoke that often, but every once in a while, Snoop had this, he had a little mini coffee grinder. Snoop brought, he had one little L out, passing around, everybody was high. He was like, oh man. Oh look, well, see, you heard that? Did you hear that? Well.  Well, it was just long. It was just long.  We're in the back, came out this little coffee grinder and four like pals and made this thing he called the gubba. What do you call it? He called the gubba. He took a pinch out of this bag, put it right, put it in, it came out like powder. Put it, it was another long, it was like long as it was, I was like, Snoop. Man, we was, we went to dinner. So it was me, Snoop, Jane Foxx, Luda, Gabrielle Union, Sinalathan. And me and Gabrielle was going to- These all sound like high-ass people, didn't you know? And then I'm in the show crazy. I'm in the show crazy. Everybody in the house like, why is he telling this story? I don't know, we haven't been to school. Who's that? Billy Joe. I don't know him Billy Joe. The piano? Billy Joe. Damn, Billy Joe. Billy Joe, we was like, wait. Uptown girl? Ha! Billy Joe.  Hey, Billy, man, Uptown girl, but either. I'm from Uptown. Talk about my business one time for me. Billy, Billy Joe. I was like, Billy Joe. So we're walking into dinner and I'm telling Gabrielle, I'm like, Gabrielle, don't let me sit next to Sinalathan. I had a crush on Sinalathan. I was like, do not let me sit next to Sinalathan. I'm high. I don't know what I'm going to say tonight. Right, right, right. We get up to the table and Gabrielle's like, T, you should sit next to Sinalathan. I was like, ouch. Something I'm like, hi. Yes, that's me. I was nervous the whole dinner. I spilled the water. I fumbled. I love Sinalathan too. It was a failure, but it was a fun failure. But I just remember when it was all a cool vibe and then Billy Joe popped up. And there was somebody else I can't remember who didn't fit that, that, that room.  Like Emmanuel Stewart or something like that. He was like, what's happening? Can you talk about the little, yeah. Not Emmanuel Lewis. Emmanuel Lewis, I'm sorry. Yeah. Emmanuel Stewart is the boxer. That's the boxer. He's the man for him. He's still another boxer. That's my only. You see him everywhere. Everywhere. Man, you ain't see him that often. Yeah, like Emmanuel Lewis. He just be popping up. Emmanuel, just be popping up. You can be the U-Bowl on Camp Creek. The heads just walk in. I said, Emmanuel, there's a cruiser one night. What's the gag is on? That's crazy. Yeah, that was, I mean, that was so good.  I think the crazy gang did Wildin' out there first time. He was all. Emmanuel was so excited. No, no, no, no, no. Emmanuel Lewis ain't never did Wildin' out there. I'm gonna tell them what was before me. I was like, I miss you. How to grab these asses. Dude, pick them up. Don't think that. Don't pick them up.  Why would I? They're quite strong as a muffle. He's like a baby gorilla. You can't pick up a baby gorilla, man. Nobody's seen any woodsmen or dogs, man. That man has to do the hell, bro. He's like a baby gorilla. Just how it happens.  That's new, man. And the heavyweight. Yeah, they're like a paperweight. I'm just keeping it right there, yeah. Boy, that's crazy.  So you've been announcing for the Falcons. Yup. The Falcons gave me a section called the Dirty Birds, and that's the section. How do you keep from cussing? Carefully. Are you a fan of the Falcons? I am a fan of the Falcons now. Oh, now. Yeah, that's how you keep from cussing. You ain't care. Oh, no. How you do that, bro? I mean, I don't know. How you be on there, Mike? And not saying, fuck! Well, I'm doing radio on this tile help. Because I have to go, you know, you do it. I had to give me a bleep button. And I'm like, yo, you do it, though. And you know you can do it.  Like, I've been doing radio. So I just, you know, when I know that click that might come on, I know I just can't go that way. But you gotta literally look at the name sometimes. You be like, who did you got that? 54? 54? Well, yo, no, right. Lost for five yards. Honestly, the names is the hardest part for the Hawks. There's some names. Trust you, all the European players. Facts.  I love when them names be like that. I wish my name was European like that. What? Carlos Chocobitch.  DC Fuckabitch. Chico Desmabitch.
