We got a lot of baseball Jake a lot of sweeps happened. Look at it into that. There's some disturbing news about gas stations.

There's some people in hard slumps and there's some people in Fuego. Let's talk about all of it.

What's all?

Talking baseball. Hello everyone. Welcome to the show talking baseball. I'm your host John Boy and you got your other host Jake coming to you from a Starbucks in Oklahoma. Is that correct?

We've had run around Sue. And yeah, we're going to run into some elements. I can't tell you how happy I am to see and hear you properly after what we've had to run talking to the eggs last night.

There's a little kid on the show. Yeah, he'll get involved here. I think he'll be moving. He'll be a first first half of the show. But yeah, man, I'm doing well.

We're here for a fantasy football draft guys weekend voting and golfing and it is downpouring outside. There's no internet for anyone to do anything. So we're kind of bottoming, but we're about to peak. I feel it. I'm going. I'm going.

Well, well, well, yesterday for those want a little behind the scenes yesterday the Yankees game ended at 1 a.m. Eastern time. So that means we have to start recording talking Yanks. Then I was up till 3 30. And I said on the show, if I wake up and it's 80 degrees or higher tomorrow, I'm just going to be so mad.

I'm so sick of summer. I'm so sick of the heat. Guess what, Jake? I woke up at 70 and raining all day when my girlfriend, Caitlin told me that biggest smile on my face. Then we were at a coffee and I was like, I need coffee to do talking baseball. I just didn't get any sleep.

I started walking to the car realized that I had a five hour energy in the fridge because the gas station is a $10 minimum and whenever I need to hit the $10, I just load up on five hours and then like I guess I'll drink these later on because they're the most expensive thing that gets me gets me over the $10 cap right quick. So that made me happy. So the weather being bad.

And didn't have to go out for coffee. I'm all sorts of perked up. We are running late because there's a lot of a lot of just technical difficulties and sleep deprivation, but we're here. We're ready to talk some baseball.

Contrary to where we were a few hours ago, we are on the up and up gym. Yeah. Yeah. Jake was coming to me from the like original internet last night.
