Hello and welcome.

It's our number one.

Hour number one of our radio program. we start out this week where we left off last week, a conversation about the presumptive number one pick by Jacksonville, Trevor Lawrence,

Doesn't for me, I will explain why.

That and more.

It's coming your way right now in our number one.
