b'11/14/19 A last-second guest change means we were joined today by Mateo "Swipa" Dominguez. He hails from Gilroy, California and is a freshman at CSULB studying criminal justice and playing ultimate for Long Beach Pyramid Scheme. After an intro describing the presence of some background noise and a sad fish story, we briefly previewed a couple of the games for this NFL weekend (0:00-17:52). From there we took quite a journey through yodeling, Jake recounting his near-death experience this morning, another Pokemon and Star Wars segment, and Jake discovering new information about J.R.R. Tolkien (17:52-29:05). We returned to sports a little bit and talked about the latest basketball injuries, then our gripes with the College Football Playoff rankings (29:05-43:55). We finally turned our attention back to Mateo to hear about the origins of his nickname, but got sidetracked again by some of the old cartoon tv show themes we listened to last night (43:55-1:08:00). When we got control of ourselves again, Mateo gave us some insight into his who his parents and siblings are and what they do, and what life growing up in Gilroy is like, especially in regards to the Gilroy Garlic Festival (1:08:00-1:20:12). Then Mateo told us about his high school career, and he and Jake had an in-depth conversation about running track and cross country. Mateo also told us about how he decided on CSULB, and his interest in criminal psychology (1:20:12-1:45:00). Then Mateo gave us a thorough look into the shoe reselling business, his personal business plans, and so much more than we ever could have hoped to know about shoes (1:45:00-2:08:30). Lastly, Mateo had the opportunity to attend the Camp Flog Gnaw musical festival at Dodger Stadium last weekend, where a big news story developed and spread all over social media. He filled us in on all the details the media missed out on, while teaching us again about another subject we know nothing about (2:08:30-2:37:06).\\n\\nFollow us everywhere we appear on media, request to be part of the show, and find us some sponsorships!'
