1
00:00:04,966 --> 00:00:08,333
(light, gentle music playing)
2
00:00:08,400 --> 00:00:09,933
John Wilson: Hey, New York.
3
00:00:10,000 --> 00:00:13,433
Whenever your friends
ask you to hang out,
4
00:00:13,500 --> 00:00:16,566
you kind of just let them
determine what you do.
5
00:00:17,566 --> 00:00:20,966
And a lot of the time,
it involves watching sports.
6
00:00:21,033 --> 00:00:23,866
Their eyes are always
glued to the screen,
7
00:00:23,933 --> 00:00:27,333
but you never have any idea
what's going on.
8
00:00:28,033 --> 00:00:30,333
They all talk to each other
the whole time,
9
00:00:30,400 --> 00:00:33,600
trading stories about
the characters on TV.
10
00:00:33,666 --> 00:00:34,900
And at a certain point,
11
00:00:34,966 --> 00:00:36,666
they just stop engaging with you
12
00:00:36,733 --> 00:00:39,766
because your mind
is clearly blank
13
00:00:39,833 --> 00:00:41,900
and you have nothing to offer.
14
00:00:42,666 --> 00:00:45,266
You never really tried
getting into sports growing up
15
00:00:45,333 --> 00:00:48,100
because you had
more important stuff,
16
00:00:48,200 --> 00:00:49,433
uh, to focus on.
17
00:00:50,600 --> 00:00:54,633
(intense cinematic
music playing)
18
00:00:55,633 --> 00:00:57,766
The competitions that
you usually like to watch
19
00:00:57,833 --> 00:01:00,133
are always kind of strange,
20
00:01:00,200 --> 00:01:03,266
and involve either
feats of strength
21
00:01:03,333 --> 00:01:06,800
or breaking some
kind of world record.
22
00:01:06,866 --> 00:01:08,033
(deeply inhales)
23
00:01:08,100 --> 00:01:11,133
(singing soft, high note)
24
00:01:22,666 --> 00:01:25,700
(maintaining note)
25
00:01:29,366 --> 00:01:32,400
(note wavering)
26
00:01:38,600 --> 00:01:41,000
(inhales, exhales)
27
00:01:41,066 --> 00:01:43,100
John: Wow. Congrats.
28
00:01:43,666 --> 00:01:47,700
But when you try to talk to
normal people about this stuff,
29
00:01:47,765 --> 00:01:49,500
they never seem to care.
30
00:01:49,566 --> 00:01:52,300
Do you ever watch
lumberjack competitions?
31
00:01:53,466 --> 00:01:54,866
Uh, not really.
32
00:01:55,466 --> 00:01:57,933
John: You wanna be
able to talk about sports,
33
00:01:58,000 --> 00:02:02,133
but you don't even know
the basic rules of most games.
34
00:02:02,900 --> 00:02:05,900
You're not even sure
which team to root for.
35
00:02:05,966 --> 00:02:10,566
But, maybe if you learned
how to become a real fan,
36
00:02:10,633 --> 00:02:13,666
you can finally blend in
with the rest of your friends.
37
00:02:15,266 --> 00:02:17,933
So, instead of just
sitting on the sidelines
38
00:02:18,000 --> 00:02:20,900
the rest of your life,
stick with me,
39
00:02:20,966 --> 00:02:23,633
and I'll show you
how to hit it out of the park,
40
00:02:24,666 --> 00:02:26,333
slam dunk,
41
00:02:26,400 --> 00:02:28,466
take one for the team,
42
00:02:29,200 --> 00:02:32,300
and finally just, uh,
43
00:02:32,366 --> 00:02:34,400
get, get in the game.
44
00:02:37,966 --> 00:02:40,166
The number of different sports
you can be a fan of
45
00:02:40,233 --> 00:02:43,600
may seem endless,
but if you wanna fit in,
46
00:02:43,666 --> 00:02:46,700
you should try to focus on
a, a major one.
47
00:02:47,733 --> 00:02:50,133
You weirdly got a message
from the New York Mets
48
00:02:50,200 --> 00:02:52,200
a while ago,
inviting you to a game
49
00:02:52,266 --> 00:02:55,466
that you never, uh,
responded to.
50
00:02:55,533 --> 00:02:57,466
So, you thought
it would be a good time
51
00:02:57,533 --> 00:02:59,833
to take them up on their offer.
52
00:02:59,900 --> 00:03:01,800
Even though
you're still not sure
53
00:03:01,900 --> 00:03:05,066
if the invitation
was meant for you.
54
00:03:05,133 --> 00:03:08,433
But before you go, you should
make sure you're prepared.
55
00:03:09,400 --> 00:03:12,733
So, start by going out
and buying some apparel.
56
00:03:12,800 --> 00:03:14,766
- This is the Mets, right?
- Cashier: Yeah.
57
00:03:14,833 --> 00:03:16,566
John: Thank you so much.
58
00:03:16,633 --> 00:03:19,866
Then you can look up
the history of, of the team,
59
00:03:19,933 --> 00:03:22,966
uh, to make sure
you're up to speed
60
00:03:23,033 --> 00:03:25,633
before you get there.
61
00:03:25,700 --> 00:03:29,000
Baseball players also use
a lot of hand signals,
62
00:03:29,066 --> 00:03:32,700
so you should try to study
those in public, too.
63
00:03:32,766 --> 00:03:36,666

you should try to kill some

What do you think's
gonna happen?
75
00:04:32,233 --> 00:04:34,766
- Mets gonna lose.
- John: Oh, shit.
76
00:04:35,566 --> 00:04:38,033
When it rains, they have
a whole team of people
77
00:04:38,100 --> 00:04:40,966
that just wipe down
each individual seat
78

everyone's still drinking
enough alcohol.
81
00:04:52,166 --> 00:04:56,000
And there's a big meatloaf
for all the male photographers
82
00:04:56,066 --> 00:04:58,000
in, in the press room.
83
00:04:59,000 --> 00:05:01,033
Every game, a, a Mets tradition,
84
00:05:01,100 --> 00:05:03,633
is a sing-along to
Billy Joel's "Piano Man."

- John: Oh, really?
- Um, so, those are the lyrics.
86
00:05:06,800 --> 00:05:08,166
John: But it's always... it's
sponsored by Dunkin now?
87
00:05:08,233 --> 00:05:09,400
Rep:
It's sponsored by Dunkin, yeah.
88
00:05:09,466 --> 00:05:11,566
John: Do, do you guys
have, like, a kiss cam?
89
00:05:11,633 --> 00:05:12,966
Rep: We don't have
a kiss cam anymore.
90
00:05:13,033 --> 00:05:15,033
It was, you know,
just some weird
91
00:05:15,133 --> 00:05:16,633
consensual things
92
00:05:16,700 --> 00:05:18,933
that we thought didn't
really fit well in 2022.
93
00:05:19,000 --> 00:05:20,866
John: Do you think the
game's still gonna go on today?
94
00:05:20,933 --> 00:05:23,066
That's... I don't know. Everybody
thinks I'm a weatherman.
95
00:05:23,133 --> 00:05:25,633
I got people calling me
and texting me.
96
00:05:25,700 --> 00:05:27,733
I-It's in the umpire's hands,
97
00:05:27,800 --> 00:05:29,233
so it doesn't look
too promising.
98
00:05:29,300 --> 00:05:32,200
But, don't look too promising
tomorrow either, unfortunately.
99
00:05:32,866 --> 00:05:35,366
John: And after
three hours of waiting,
100
00:05:35,433 --> 00:05:38,033
the game was finally postponed.
101
00:05:39,433 --> 00:05:41,466
You're really upset that
you aren't gonna be able
102
00:05:41,533 --> 00:05:44,332
to get the full experience,
103
00:05:44,400 --> 00:05:47,966
but, thankfully,
a fan that you met there
104
00:05:48,066 --> 00:05:50,133
invited you to come back
to his place
105
00:05:50,233 --> 00:05:53,800
to watch some old games
on TV instead.
106
00:05:53,866 --> 00:05:56,600
- Wow.
- This is my living room and my dining room.
107
00:05:56,666 --> 00:05:58,966
- All in one.
- John: Cool.
108
00:05:59,033 --> 00:06:01,000
These are all
my Met glasses on top.
109
00:06:01,066 --> 00:06:03,133
- I don't know if you can really see them.
- John: Oh, yeah.
110
00:06:03,200 --> 00:06:06,233
This is like
my Hall of Fame area for pins.
111
00:06:06,300 --> 00:06:08,000
I don't know if that'll show
with the glare.
112
00:06:08,066 --> 00:06:10,700
John: What about, what do
you like about pins so much?
113
00:06:10,766 --> 00:06:13,366
Fan: I don't know, but
it's... Eh, I just enjoy it.
114
00:06:13,433 --> 00:06:15,033
- John: What is this?
- Fan: Oh, that's paper.
115
00:06:15,100 --> 00:06:16,933
John: This is paper?
It's like a flip book
116
00:06:17,000 --> 00:06:18,233
that doesn't change.
117
00:06:18,300 --> 00:06:20,533
How'd you get into the Mets
to begin with?
118
00:06:21,066 --> 00:06:24,733
Oh, that's my father, who says
he created this monster,
119
00:06:24,800 --> 00:06:27,766
- so, yeah, he takes the blame for it, but...
- (John laughs)
120
00:06:27,832 --> 00:06:30,000
- John: Is he still here right now?
- Yes, he is.
121
00:06:30,066 --> 00:06:31,566
Yeah, he's downstairs.
122
00:06:31,633 --> 00:06:32,800
John: Do you
remember the first time
123
00:06:32,866 --> 00:06:34,933
that you brought your son
to the game?
124
00:06:35,000 --> 00:06:37,233
Oh, my God. That was...
125
00:06:37,300 --> 00:06:39,433
He was about
maybe 7 or 8 years old,
126
00:06:39,500 --> 00:06:42,100
I guess, him and his brother,
127
00:06:42,900 --> 00:06:45,433
who turned out to be
a Yankee fan, unfortunately.
128
00:06:45,500 --> 00:06:48,966
- He's, he's been my caregiver for the last two years.
- John: Oh, yeah?
129
00:06:49,033 --> 00:06:51,800
- It's nice you take care of your dad here.
- Fan: Thank you.
130
00:06:51,866 --> 00:06:53,300
You know what I tell everybody?
131
00:06:53,366 --> 00:06:55,832
"You should've seen me
when I was alive."
132
00:06:55,900 --> 00:06:57,733
(all laugh)
133
00:06:57,832 --> 00:07:00,200
- John: Please don't burn yourself.
- Fan: Nah.
134
00:07:00,266 --> 00:07:02,900
-John: Okay. Alright, it looks good.
-Fan: Smokin'.
135
00:07:03,366 --> 00:07:05,666
So, we'll watch
a little 1986 Mets.
136
00:07:05,733 --> 00:07:08,000
John: Yes, please.
137
00:07:08,066 --> 00:07:10,400
Was the '86 team a, a good team?
138
00:07:10,466 --> 00:07:12,200
Oh, that team was phenomenal.
139
00:07:12,266 --> 00:07:14,733
They started the season,
like, two and three,
140
00:07:14,800 --> 00:07:17,033
and then they wheeled off
10 wins in a row.
141
00:07:17,100 --> 00:07:20,800
-John: Uh-huh.
-Fan: Reggie Jackson. I think that's Kent Her...
142
00:07:20,866 --> 00:07:23,166
There's, uh, Ray Knight.
When the Mets won that game six,
143
00:07:23,233 --> 00:07:25,800
they came from behind with
two out, nobody on.
144
00:07:25,866 --> 00:07:28,332
- Carlton Fisk...
- John: He seemed to know a lot
145
00:07:28,433 --> 00:07:30,633
about all the different people
on the team.
146
00:07:31,366 --> 00:07:34,233
And you kinda wish
that you were watching a game
147
00:07:34,300 --> 00:07:36,433
where you knew
at least a little something
148
00:07:36,500 --> 00:07:37,966
about the players.
149
00:07:38,033 --> 00:07:40,300
- What is this stuff?
- Fan: That's stuff my dad taped.
150
00:07:40,366 --> 00:07:41,832
I don't even know what's on it.
151
00:07:41,900 --> 00:07:43,866
- What is this?
- John: This is stuff your dad taped?
152
00:07:43,933 --> 00:07:46,266
-Fan: What is that? OJ
Simpson? Ah, that's my dad.
153
00:07:46,332 --> 00:07:48,466
He made a whole bunch of tapes.
He might have taped over them.
154
00:07:48,533 --> 00:07:49,666
John: Oh, okay.
155
00:07:49,733 --> 00:07:51,832
Fan: He was one of the
best. He set the record
156
00:07:51,900 --> 00:07:54,500
with 2,003 or 2,007 yards.
157
00:07:54,566 --> 00:07:56,433
John: Who did OJ play for?
158
00:07:56,500 --> 00:07:59,666
Fan: He was, uh, on
the Buffalo, uh, Bills?
159
00:07:59,733 --> 00:08:01,966
Everybody thought
he was a great person
160
00:08:02,066 --> 00:08:04,833
and a great, uh, sports player.
161
00:08:04,900 --> 00:08:06,333
You know, football player.
162
00:08:07,033 --> 00:08:09,333
- John: Hm.
- They used to call him "The Juice"
163
00:08:09,700 --> 00:08:11,766
John: You're already
pretty familiar with,
164
00:08:11,833 --> 00:08:14,866
uh, all the stuff that OJ did,
165
00:08:14,933 --> 00:08:18,100
so maybe you'd, uh, have
a bit more fun going to, uh,
166
00:08:18,166 --> 00:08:21,666
see his former team play a game.
167
00:08:21,733 --> 00:08:24,766
Do you have any tickets? Oh.
168
00:08:25,700 --> 00:08:27,800
You guys don't know
how to get tickets, do you?
169
00:08:27,866 --> 00:08:29,733
- Uh...
- Uh, sorry, bro.

gonna have to wait

What, what got you into vacuums?

I don't know.
I was just kind of always...

I just like vacuums.

As a little kid,
358
00:17:16,066 --> 00:17:18,465
I was overly enamored
with vacuum cleaners.
359
00:17:18,532 --> 00:17:20,133
It didn't matter what it was.
It was just as long
360
00:17:20,200 --> 00:17:21,599
as it was a vacuum cleaner,
and it plugged in...
361
00:17:21,665 --> 00:17:23,566

I was good to go.
362

You know, it's just that simple.
363
00:17:25,465 --> 00:17:28,133
And then, after a while,
I realized that it was actually
364
00:17:28,233 --> 00:17:32,066
kind of embarrassing,
so I, I put it away.
365

John: Why do you feel like
you had to hide it for a minute?
366
00:17:35,766 --> 00:17:38,600
Because all the other
little guys on the playground
367
00:17:38,666 --> 00:17:40,700

- John: Hm.
368

(laughs) You didn't have
a baseball bat, didn't want to,
369
00:17:43,633 --> 00:17:46,400
didn't want a football,
didn't want a basketball.
370
00:17:46,466 --> 00:17:48,466
I wanted to play

Until, unfortunately,

385

I'm, I'm grateful that I had
38 years with her. You know?
386
00:18:32,000 --> 00:18:33,433
I mean, she taught me a lot,
387
00:18:33,500 --> 00:18:36,100
especially about
how to be a man, you know.
388
00:18:36,200 --> 00:18:39,333
And, you know, of course,
cooking, cleaning.
389

That's all about adulthood,

your own independent man.

'Cause he was very handy.
510
00:23:37,566 --> 00:23:39,400
He never actually fixed vacuums.
511
00:23:39,466 --> 00:23:41,400
- John: Hm.
- But he knew a lot, enough that he could teach me stuff,
512
00:23:41,466 --> 00:23:42,600
and he taught me a lot.
513

John:
Does he still help out or...
514
00:23:45,100 --> 00:23:46,466
Oh, my father passed away.
515
00:23:47,566 --> 00:23:49,100
- John: Oh, I'm sorry.
- Yeah.
516
00:23:49,166 --> 00:23:50,500
I buried him last weekend.
517
00:23:50,566 --> 00:23:52,766
It's... It's-It's hard.
518
00:23:52,833 --> 00:23:54,466
I said... He lived with me
for so many years,
519
00:23:54,533 --> 00:23:57,400
it was like losin' a spouse
almost because he was...
520
00:23:57,466 --> 00:23:58,800
And, uh, h-he was here.
521
00:23:58,866 --> 00:24:01,333
You, know, a lot of times,
I'll come home from somewhere,
522
00:24:01,400 --> 00:24:03,433
and I'll wanna go tell him
what happened or what ha...
523
00:24:03,500 --> 00:24:06,366
And I'm like, "Oh, I can't.
He's not here anymore."
524
00:24:06,433 --> 00:24:09,333
The day before he died,
I went out up to the hospital,
525
00:24:09,433 --> 00:24:11,566
and I held his hand,
and we watched Mass on TV
526
00:24:11,633 --> 00:24:13,333
'cause he always... when he
couldn't go to the church anymore,
527
00:24:13,400 --> 00:24:15,166
he always wanted
to watch it on TV.
528
00:24:15,233 --> 00:24:16,666
I watched it with him,
and I held his hand,
529
00:24:16,733 --> 00:24:18,433
and I said, "Dad, it's...
Everything's gonna be okay.
530
00:24:18,500 --> 00:24:20,466
It's gonna be alright."
531
00:24:20,533 --> 00:24:23,266
And I said,
as much as he couldn't talk,
532
00:24:23,333 --> 00:24:25,966
when I walked out of that room,
clear as anything,
533
00:24:26,033 --> 00:24:28,233
he said to me,
"Remember, I love you."
534
00:24:30,233 --> 00:24:31,200
(voice breaking) I'm sorry.
535

that he died in his sleep.
539

She goes,
"You cry because you miss him,

to regret with your father."
