| 0:13.8 | Welcome to another edition of the Around the NFL podcast. |
| 0:18.6 | Week 1 edition edition that is, |
| 0:23.9 | flagship show. |
| 0:25.1 | My name is Dan Hansis, joined by a virtual room for at least one more week. |
| 0:31.5 | Filled with some heroes, Mark Sessler, Greg Rosenthal. |
| 0:36.3 | And yes, we have seen the first Sunday of the regular season, |
| 0:41.6 | and what does it do? And this is, I probably said the same thing last year. And if I didn't say it |
