0:00.0	Welcome, everybody. This is Derek Bodner, joined by Rich Hoffman on this week's Sixers Beat, a part of the CLNS Media Network.
0:27.6	A lot going on, for late July at least. There's a bit going on. We have not really grainy Instagram videos anymore.
0:38.1	Like I feel like the quality of Instagram videos has gone up over the last few years
