00:00By the way, the culprit who asked Swayman the question that led to that answer about nature and positive thinking and all of that, Bridget Prew of Sunday Skate, which isn't on anymore, but also the skate pod, which very much is.
00:13She joins us right now here on the show. Bridget, how are we doing tonight?
00:17I'm doing good. I heard everything you said about that answer. I almost feel a little bit bad for asking the question, seeing how much he's gotten ripped for the answer.
00:26I promise you I didn't know he was going to answer about nature.
00:30I don't think that we heard the actual question. So what was the actual question that you asked him that led to that answer?
00:36So the actual question was, I said, and this dates back to remember when he answers everything positively after games.
00:46There was one time Nikita Zdorov kind of caused a little bit of a controversy by saying he doesn't want to talk about the positives if it's a bad game.
00:55And he kind of went a little bit at Swayman. So I said, you know, have you always just been this positive?
01:01Like what about being positive, like helps you prepare and move on and just about his positive attitude in general.
01:09And I just, I swear, I didn't know it was going to go to a spirituality in nature.
01:16I thought he was probably going to say, oh, it just helps me, you know, put things behind me.
01:22Right.
01:23And, and just, I can, I'm a better goalie when I don't think about the stuff from the past.
01:27Yeah, that would have been a very normal, reasonable answer.
01:31And we wouldn't have spent 15 minutes talking about it.
01:33If he had said something like that, we all could have lived with that.
01:35Instead, he goes off on this, on this rant.
01:38I mean, you are all there.
01:40It's hard when you're processing something like in the middle of it, because you got to record it and everything like that.
01:44And then you go back and listen to it.
01:45But that had to have been one of those answers where you and, you know, Connor and Scott and everybody all look at each other.
01:50Like, what is he talking about?
01:51I was actually one of the only people there for that.
01:55A lot of people moved on to Pasternak.
01:58And it's crazy.
02:00Breakup day is crazy.
02:01There's guys talking all around the room.
02:03So people split up.
02:04So it was me and like two or three other people there.
02:06The Nessie cameras happened to be there as well.
02:08But, yeah, when he said it, I knew.
02:11I was like, I got to post this.
02:12This is definitely worth putting up there.
02:14But I really do.
02:15I want to defend him just for a second.
02:17Okay.
02:18I think he means well.
02:19I think he means well.
