What is up, ladies and gentlemen, welcome back to another episode of The Hooket Podcast. Very shortly, I'm going to be joined here in studio by Ben Planger of the Strength Factory. But before we get into this episode, I want to welcome you to our brand new show partner. Now, I don't bring partners on easily. Over the years, there's been tons of opportunity

0:21.9

to partner up with website building platforms, mattress companies, supplement companies, all stuff that

0:29.6

is just not useful to our listener base. So when I bring on a new partner, I want it to be of value to

0:36.3

you guys. So, I want to say a massive

0:39.5

thank you and a huge welcome to our new show sponsors, Works and their market leading portable

pressure cleaner, the HydroShot. The Works Hydroshot redefines the way you clean. We've all been

pathetically trying to clean a bike with half a bottle of Evian, or even worse,

loading a filthy bike into the back of your car or van, especially this time of year.

everything needs to be kept clean. What's also cool is the hydershot runs on a 20-volt

1:41.7

power share battery that you can switch between other

1:44.7

works 20 volt tools. So share batteries, save money, save the planet. The big question here is

do you want to win a Works HydroShort worth over 150 pounds? All you have to do is keep an

2:00.0

eye on our Instagram feed over at the Hookit podcast

2:03.1

over the next couple of days and you can find out how you can win yourself a Works Hydra shot
