Financial capital financial USA.com. This is the Adam gold show major revenue dose will join us in just a little bit better at sports media also does a lot of stuff for a WR a lot about. We will will I will ask him about Top Gun Maverick which I have not yet seen which made up another billion dollars or whatever he did at the box office last week. It's killing it every single person I have talked to a CNET loved it. I'm not even that big a fan of Top Gun the original which was fine, not knocking and not say it was bad like it was okay but this is just absolutely rushing it at the box office so there's a lot of cool stuff either on TV or in the movies. Are you a Jurassic Park. I love the originals unlocking a lot of the most recent one that came out was three years ago four years ago was addressing world address world dominion. I think I am not like I haven't watch that when I haven't seen any of that writing is a gentle dive in the reliance on, you have not used you to sit there and tell me look. Maybe I had not seen the original dress up our direct fire. Then there are people below a sound environment. I've got I've got no time, no time. There are people going yet. That is where you been, though I go see movies came out 30 years ago and got some movies that you seem like dogma chasing Amy is in a movie that came out after dress I wore like I haven't seen any movies. I just don't see a lot of them didn't see that chances are if it's animated. I've seen it. This was an animated wasn't no the vehicle though it would be very cool pilots. I watch very good show dinosaur train on TV. I have issues with dinosaur train never seen it. No we have no reason to your kids anyway. I have questions about the third dinosaur child. It's not like the others. I got questions I got questions for dinosaur mom just say golden studio with my friend Coach Pete through the capital financial advisory group. We are talking retirement coach. How does longevity risk figure into our retirement and income plan.

This is the best of times and the worst of times and longevity risk me to get a lift to all to me everyday lives not too long after we want to money to outlive us and unfortunately many people have seen you out there listening.

Maybe one of them. Your money is not designed to outlive you.

You might outlive your money and that's not what we want to have happen as we get to that day after you run out of money not to be a fun time with design a plan that guarantees you will never run out of money.

We call it the GPI plant growth protection lifetime income for the next 10 people is the golden ticket out of the snow that evening to do it. No cost or obligation, and all you have to do is call we make it so easy. Would you like financial independence into your retirement and beyond it. 800-661-7383 that golden ticket is a $1000 value or you could text Adam to 21000 for Coach Pete to root. This was all called to the point of cutting short a conversation. When I mentioned that I had not ever seen Jurassic Park. We will let my friend Dimitri Rabideau's, who is here Barrett sports media, among other places to also pile on.

If you want Dimitri that I also that I have not seen Jurassic Park and we can talk a little bit about drastic world, which I believe hits theaters. If not, I think Friday is when it comes out. Are you also appalled that I have not seen Jurassic Park nonperforming did it ever having to Jurassic Park so I'm trying to say there is literally literally the movie that made me fall in love with you serious absolutely delicate. I will tell you that Empire strikes back is still my favorite movie but the first time I was 11 years old when Jurassic Park came out and that initial scene where they see the bracket source for the first offshore my little head could not even begin to fathom how they did and I had to know and that it shall studying film and nine dollars. About that on my iPod.

Sorry if I disappoint you. Here's the thing. Literally every Jurassic Park filled after that one the worst you better since this one drastic world. The previews which I think every Super Bowl yeah it's contrived I I thought the movie had come out like two months ago right so very much Mike Jurassic Park franchise. They cannot wait to go see this movie on the on Friday when they get out of school right. I keep telling my wife like this looks like it was made on a day or write like this one that their friends they could not make the worst movie ever. Then I won't see it definitely convinced me that I'm okay not seeing the original original is wonderful every other what it.well, most sequels are not good, although it does appear as I transition Top Gun Maverick has gotten more out of this critically acclaimed but more word-of-mouth. The claim then maybe any movie I have talked to people about it and I don't know the last 15 years. Talk to talk to me about critical acclaim like 98% positive reviews. According to the Rotten Tomatoes diamond look good there. There are varying degrees of positive reviews brighter people to go when it's a note wonderful people that say great. Nobody checked every box you want to talk on the check that, but the general content you are not going to be disappointed. I will be honest with. I have not seen this movie yet, but I'm interested in seeing it because I don't remember anything about the original… I see this free time, made no impression on me. It might be generational.

I don't know but I keep hearing people say this one is so much more than just the plot is hey look at that backplane. My my viewing and I want to especially broaden this into a different, maybe a slightly different conversation.

More about Tom Cruise movies than about this movie because it's it's not even in my top five.

Tom Cruise movies the. The original Top Gun mean personally.

Top Gun and cocktail to me of the same movie I liked cocktail better right now. I'll give you that I would talk to difference. I guess it's true. I mean there is as much underwear invokes me risky business is the greatest one I actually liked all the right moves which God is not his name is not Hayden Fry, Craig T. Nelson is starting football coaching right right it became. It was a football coach there that he was of course I Hayden Fry in on TV baby legendary conqueror, but so like I'm with you on that. I was never really went Top Gun was fine. I just wonder is there to begin oiled up volleyball scene. I swear to you I said this to a friend the other day doesn't have oiled up volleyball cream and playing with the boys blaring as they are playing sand volleyball. I don't know that we called it a conqueror to be… Maybe dunkers eventually. I'm pleased you called sand volleyball fixture at basically everywhere in the world except when you're actually on the beach. It should also be called sand volleyball but about about Tom Cruise movies he makes good movies. I mean I'm a huge fan of him personally, but because he kind of a nutcase.

But yes, movies generally are fun. You really want one. I would say some of the prestigious ones are genuinely like hold up like born on July Magnolia is a wonderful movie for that particular genre field. I don't know what you call the early Paul Thomas Anderson. Everybody is talking to each other what really like that movie a lot. Dimitri ravenous is here joining us on the gold so yeah me lucky so he does fun thing be the mission impossible movies are all funded. Not nothing is based in reality, nobody's hanging onto the outside of a plane but I mean the people those offer, let me ask you about a couple of TV shows and I would start with the one you are you mentioned. Second, the boys, which I have also read incredible reviews about and Dennis touted this earlier your thoughts on the boys and why people should check this out okay.

I really enjoyed the first two Stephen's very funny today show for people that don't know, superheroes are basically a large corporation, and they operate very much from the standpoint of they can do whatever they want and what are your normal people going to the good Dr. Bishop. That's corporation, that's exactly what corporate America is exactly I will tell you season three which draft I think at the end of last week real trouble getting into because this is the thing about the boys and parents, particularly lose sight of when we talk about superhero anything.

This is not a show for kids right like this is hard or kind of show and I feel like the boys problem was they started at eight and the only way to go to 11 is just pure shocking life support. So I like the first lot I had trouble getting into the new. So saying more gratuitous than anything else like very facing within the first 20 minutes of the first episode of season three that involves a small person how I say that you okay I appreciate.appreciate you self editing and I still remember the capital of the capital for those people who don't aren't aware, Dimitri ravenous used Matrox used to patrol these hallways in the morning. I lets what were your thoughts on Obi-Wan.

This is what this show. I will not watch, I don't care but I know you will. I I am bouncing back and forth because their individual really thought about it like it is. I really like with the revival of Star Wars that we are leaning into moments of Darth Vader. At the very most bad ass like back when Obi-Wan is great story really connecting for me yet and I'm hoping it came out today and get a little clarification. I don't want to die too much and because I don't know what but the bigger story so far that the main plot point.

I'm having trouble understanding why the bad guy that Dr. Mike, I'm also a Harry Potter guy. I'm not really all that interested in the Dumbledore angle here will maybe it I'll watch it and will get me involved but I didn't like the magical creatures that those things were terrible guide.

I didn't like it that only sold first to just decided like with me. I don't have to do this but I saw the first one I did not want the second one is the person was very good right now you you tweeted out you were that you were coming on this program so I'll let you close on this and I know you have to go under the Banner of Heaven. What is that so all committed murder mystery show on Hulu.

It starred Andrew Garfield, who would be Star of the terrible Spider-Man movie and you take in 1984. He is a member of the LDS church and he is investigating a murder from someone that he knows from his church. This person's wife and daughter had been killed and like it is just what makes it so good. I love murder mystery where every episode and making you say oh I don't know where this is going so far every episode that you say I don't know where this is going to be the other thing that is really fun and did you ever happen to watch the unbreakable Kenny Schmidt on Netflix watch TV. I was there to see movies, the answer will because I don't see him soon so we can help people out. Dimitri did watching a Greco. Incredibly dumb party show a a man who played Kimi's best friend had just one big group use role better play Dave Barry's. Protected in the show ended, messing with my mind the best way is this Kimi Schmidt from what was that the Full House know that we can get Jimmy get my my focus is on his then I bought I would be upset that I hadn't seen it. She was a fascinating character. Dimitri revenues as you are, sir.

A fascinating character. Next time we speak. We will talk Alabama football doll Adam gold you are just tugged at my heartstrings.

I know I know I'm not. I know how to push the buttons you are the magic to follow him on Twitter at Dimitri ravenous. My friend will talk you soon. I got good buddy.

You got it is you have a safe like so you guys had to have a conversation on your own about me not watching direct Jurassic Park that we did that's on you Steve spoiler. They don't have sand volleyball in oil. June 19, 2006, but it all started May 6, 1997 with the announcement that the Hartford whalers were coming to North Carolina transition of heartbreak.

Figuring it out on the fly became the 25th anniversary of the presented by the Carolina listen now find this a couple of things that either happened or we have that are going to happen. We have talked about old. For instance, we have not talked at all about tonight's NBA finals game three right so let's spend a couple minutes talking about that and the other day. We talked to guess it was Tuesday. We talk to know is Monday.

We talked to Brendan Whitted about game of the Sundays game to an to me as great as the warriors were in the third quarter and the fact that they just blew Boston completely out of the water in that quarter. Even though they did that in game one last Thursday. They just didn't sustain it ended up losing the game as Boston did it to them in the in the fourth quarter.

I can't get past the fact that Clay Thompson has been a nonfactor and Clay Thompson doesn't have to go for huge numbers right, but Clay Thompson can't be a zero no N2 games into the finals. Clay Thompson has been a zero to the point where did you watch the games on that I didn't do much did you watch the Celtics and the warriors on the night I caught the last call I got the last.

There was a couple last 20 minutes of the game. Okay, here's a hockey game. Okay, here's what would what struck me as odd that it's garbage time and Clay Thompson was still on the floor.

Yeah, but there's a reason for and Steve cars play in the long game here. It didn't matter to the outcome of the game. Steve occurs trying to get Clay Thompson going because Carl he knows that if this if the warriors are to win this series.

They are going to need something from Clay Thompson and not just in one game like it's it's been a conversation piece and they asked Clay Thompson.

You know what you think. Is Clay actually said that he goes back if he's in a slump.

You will go watch some of his best games will find them online and he'll watch those games to just give himself positive reinforcement, which is fine so they asked him what you know which game if you watched talked about closeout Clay game six against the was against was in the grizzlies wasn't with whichever closeout Clay maybe was the Mavericks game six closeout Clay so he watched like awesome. Here's the thing. They don't need that Clay they don't know they need somebody who's not for of 17 or four of 19 or whatever he was. Clay Thompson was a drag in game two warriors, one in spite of Clay Thompson dream on Green does not have to add offense, dream on green provides other things. Clay Thompson must provide offense there. They're not winning the series less Clay Thompson did so it's important that's that's what really struck me about even game to that the warriors one in spite of Clay Thompson like if Clay goes out and shoots six of 11 and has 14 points. That's not awesome, but that's perfect. That's they just need his complementary offense and they need to know that it's there because if he does that then down the road though probably get a bigger game from Clay James 419 one of a from three this terrible light and I watched the entire game. Some of the misses were I mean horribly bad, like front rim hit nothing long a bank shot that goes over everything. It was, it looked like it was his first game not in game two of the finals where he's played for the last half of the season so they need productive that they don't integrate Clay Thompson. They just can't afford a bad Clay Thompson. I think Boston probably wins tonight and if you're the warriors. Your job is to get it home. Your job is to win once numbered the in the finals in the NBA. They will play three games in Boston.

There's there's not the travel in between games for five and so after between four and 5566 and seven even play three games in Boston and then you're going back to Golden State San Francisco for game six and seven okay so Clay needs to play a much better game because not to be awesome. I just can't be bad and he was bad.

As for last night in Tampa. The Rangers this started in the third.

Of game three.

The Rangers were the better team through the first half of the game table was really good of the first. But I thought the Rangers were also really good in the first benefit that was an even. And I remember this is game three. Remember after that game or after that first.

The prevailing thought was. That's all there is Tampa like is pretty even. It was good.

Temperature to discourse.

It was scoreless in the Rangers got to power play goals lead to nothing and Tampa got one back when coach Roth scored to make it to one then they tied it on a power-play goal from Santos in the third and then they want it late and but I thought in the third.

It had flipped the other way where that became the Tampa Bay lightnings game last night. It was a low event game. There were a lot of shots to go around for either team.

Just want me to bad, like almost 50 shots in game 352 on goal 52 on the game three mandala totals were for the entire game but it was a ton. It was about half that last night in game four. But what Tampa did is what Tampa does, and I keep saying this about the lightning. Nobody locks it down like the Tampa Bay Lightning. The Rangers were non-threatening yeah they missed Ryan Strohm he did not play took the more took the skate of the warm escape but did not play.

Then they lost Filipino millionaire midway through the second. I believe to an upper body injury. Both Strohm and Quito are ill be gametime decisions tomorrow.

Back in New York for game five Barclay Goudreau former lightning. By the way is hobbled a little bit, but he finished a game, but Tampa's defense completely eliminated the Rangers best players and here's the thing we saw this in the series with Carolina like no offense to the Rangers and like I think the Rangers have been sort of underrated as a Stanley Cup. We talked about this with John force and yesterday I had the Rangers are excellent. But what they really have been more than anything is opportunistic, they have take their power-play has gotten them goals and one then games and that's how they beat Carolina was the power-play score of seven power-play goals in the series. That was how they did when they're not scored in the probably they score discordant and thereto wins a score of the PowerPoint. Both of those games right and thereto. Goals against the lightning in game three power-play goals the goal last night was actually a six on formal that's regular pool just right. It was a six on formal they scored again. They're not scoring it even strength.

Tampa is shutting them down. That's a problem unless Tampa keeps taking penalties so that's looking forward to game five tomorrow night. I liked like Tampa. Tampa Bay had 30 shots on goal yesterday. New York 35 that that numbered that number blew up in the third.

There were a lot of shots them because late in the second.

Those numbers were 17 for the Rangers and 11 for Tampa. That's very low very low event type of the game I with those two things. One more one more thing to get to. Did you see the Derek Carr comments about color capric I did but I don't have their car we have a car soundbite and so about two weeks ago. Now her Neck worked out for the raters. Now the raters are assembling for minicamp so they asked Derek Carr about the potential of having Colin Nick is a teaming watching him and what he did in college and didn't know him and talked on the phone and things like that time when I think great guys been great to be around. I've enjoyed being around and talking with them competing against them and so like just told me they don't nose like I literally said the same thing until you enjoy my time around them.

11 I got them I would get along great.

My brother Norm a little bit from San Francisco's outlook on was awesome and so I think I'll just have to answer more questions and all of us would have to you know what hasn't happened like this.

What but for me just fine. I enjoyed my time with told Not to be a distraction if each if he sucks right if if somebody offers them a contract and eats any signs. He's not to be a distraction.

There will be an initial wave of questions that Nick will have to answer any will.

And then everybody will move on. It will be about football will be a sin to see how it plays out. Derek Carr is also speaking from a position where he knows he's the quarterback dog Not taking their cars job their cars going back is one of the top 15 quarterbacks in the NFL call Not taken his now there are a lot of other quarterbacks that if called Her neck were signed, they would be on notice their cars not among them.

But again, that's just interesting to hear from a from a player who knows it. That Would be more than welcome in their locker. This is the atom gold shell June 19, 2006, but it all started May 6, 1997 the announcement that the Hartford whalers were coming to North Carolina transition of heartbreak of figuring it out on the fly became 25th anniversary of the presented by the Carolina listen fine
