**Podcast:** Wall Street Unplugged - What's Really Moving These Markets

## Transcript

How's it going out there? It's Wednesday, March 18th. I'm Frank Curzio, the Wall Street Unplugged Podcast. We're back in the headlines and... I'll tell you what's really moving these markets. Happy St. Patrick's Day. Celebrating today since yesterday we didn't have the podcast. We did have a special podcast yesterday, DGXX Interview with Michelle, CEO.

Went very well with that stock. But happy St. Patrick's Day to you, Dale Creech. How's it going, man? How's everything? Very well, sir. How are you? Happy late St. Patrick's Day. The environment, the right environment, Guinness. I don't know about Guinness in a bottle, but... We were just chatting about this. Frank and I haven't had Guinness by itself without an Irish Carbomb. And I don't know that I've ever had it. My Irish Carbomb story was with my wife when I first met her. One of my close friends I haven't seen in like three, four years I played basketball with, show up at the bar and we were hanging out.

And I remember talking to her the very first time, that's where I met her. And we did about three or four of those. Ooh. And then... Stop, let me stop you. No offense, I know how this ends. No, I'm kidding. Apparently, all I know is I got her number that night and I told her that she had to put it into my phone. And when I looked at the phone, I had no idea that person was what they look like. And then when I went there, I was like, oh shit. So yeah, the Irish Carbomb always be very careful, very, very careful. But happy St. Patrick's Day especially to my mom.

She is the Irish side of the family. And my dad is the Italian side. So yeah, had so much fun in St. Patrick's Day. And yeah, it's always been a great holiday for us with my mom and cooking and stuff like that. It's been really cool. So happy St. Patrick's Day to everyone even though it's a day late. And make sure you have a beer with no Guinness in a bottle is a little weird. But definitely wanted to celebrate. And also, favorite time of the year, Daniel. We're going to talk about this later. NCAA tournament. Going to give you my bracket breakdown. I don't know if you want to listen. The last four or five years, I've been horrible at this.

And I played basketball in my life 40 years. I love it. I used to be really, really good picking the brackets. But lately, I haven't been that good. I think I picked Kentucky to win it all the year they lost in the first round. Which is great, right? You don't have to worry about anything. You just sit there and be like, okay, I'm done. Then say goodbye. So what all these brackets fill out, we do have a bracket for you. And I have a feeling I'm going to win the NCAA tournament bracket. What do you get a million dollars if you pick every game, correct? Is Buffett still doing that? Something like that? I don't know. I don't know if he does that. It's such a great way to teach. I think it's like...
