0:00.0	Hey everyone and welcome to the on the market market madness show.
0:12.1	In honor of the March Madness tournament that is kicking off today, we are going to be looking at some great markets across the country that just happened to be aligned with a team that is participating in the basketball tournament.
0:28.2	Joining me today, as usual, are Henry, Kathy, and James. James, I know you're riding pretty high off of Udub's football performance this year.
0:38.2	Are you also a college basketball fan?

1:26.1	I'm into it in March, yes.
1:27.4	Okay. Great. Happy to have you on board. All right. So for today's show, what we're going to be
1:34.6	doing is we actually researched all 68 markets that are participating. And each one of us
1:42.0	went and picked two markets that we like the most. So although this show is
