Knows what a Super Bowl tastes like.

Welcome to another edition of the Around the NFL podcast presented by the United States of Marine Corps.

My name is Dan Hansus coming to you from a room filled with heroes.

Mark Sessler, Chris Wessling, Greg Rosenthal. What is up, boys? Hey, Dan. We're here. We are here. Week 16. It's like we've been planning this week with like the schedule. We have a different schedule taping money. It's been a long time coming. It feels good that we're here. It's been a long week. I think who was at the holiday party last night? It was so crowded. I didn't see the two guys at the end. Were you at the event? I was not, no. I had intentions to go, but the day changed my ability to go.

And I, you know what? I might be this close to starting.

Remember finding Richard Simmons, a podcast, finding Mark Sessler and any like outside of

work at that?

Honestly, the one reason I thought about just showing up and making appearance and then

literally just finding Dan and then Ubering Home was to prevent this narrative that I have been a total

completest at these parties.

That is a similar strategy that you had last year. We saw you. I remember Emeka and I saw

you exiting as we were arriving. Well, you know, I think the plus one, the plus one,

well, the plus one situation where you bring the significant other, in our case, we had to both get home for babysitters and stuff. In old, in olden days, I mean, meeting like two years ago, I would just stay until the bitter end of the of the E. We just want to hang out with you. That's very possible. I don't think last night would have been the easiest way to accomplish that. We could do that an hour from now with no problem. We saw Dan. Barely saw Wes. But I did see, you know, you want to talk about the holiday party and come in where Wes was at one point in his life, where he is now. Ricky, do we have an image of Wes at the holiday party? It's impressive. Because it is, look at this guy. Now, look at it.

For the YouTube viewers and check out the YouTube show.

We do it live every Thursday.

If you guys remember several years back when West started this company, he made a big event out

of or a big to do about, listen, I'm not going to wear no monkey suit.

You're not going to get, I'm not going to go to the holiday party because they're telling me to wear a sweater. Or they, it was like party casual. It was like California casual. Yeah, and Wes wouldn't go to the holiday party because of that. And now he's wearing a full suit, a tie, and a newsboy cap. Look, I just wore it. There was theme to it. It was a 1920s theme. I just wore what I was told to wear. I just love it. First of all, I wanted you at the party. I couldn't get you at the party in 2014. Now you're the most dressed up guy at the whole thing. I love it. True love. True love. Or it was a cancer. It was a love.

What changed in your heart, in your mind that got you in the newsboy cap? Well, I think you just go,
