This is an I-Heart podcast.

Guaranteed Human.

The Around the NFL podcast knows you're going to like it in my city.

From the Chris Wesleying podcast studio, it's Around the NFL.

I am Dan Hanses and I am joined by my long-time friend and hero. Mark Sessler. What's up, Mark?

Oh wait. Here comes. Somebody else.

Just in the nick of time arrives Connie Fox.

Guys, I've been here the whole time. What are you talking about?

Oh, you know, like that is my motto, just in time. Like, I feel like maybe that is the tattoo, I guess. Laptop free today. No, that's just a total panic. It'll come out in a second. Okay. Yeah. So, Colleen, you should know that I know you have a lot of stress about being late to things. I hate it. I said to the production team, let's start as quickly as possible so she has to come to the show in the middle of it. I usually give myself a Danzis buffer. Right. That's fair. I'm like, big mistake today. It's like 11.03. It'll be fine. Should I text them? Nah. And I saw you guys through the glass because, yes, we are in a fishbowl. And I thought you guys were just like chilling. So I would have really sprinted had I known. No, we were working very hard. We were not chilling on any level. As soon as we saw you, because we were trying to get things going. Then it was emergency mode Eric behind the glass. Start it, start it, start it. But it didn't quite, Mark, get the effect because I don't see the pure panic. But you know what? Maybe it's the June 27th summer of Connie. It is. She can't be flummoxed. I think our full send right now. Yeah. Like our goal was to look like we had gotten a solid or get a solid 10 or 12 minutes in where you know we're into our third

story in the news rundown. And then I think that would set off some Colleen-based panic. But you know I was panicking a little bit. Yeah, well, you rushed by us, by the way. It was like a sprint across the window here. Just in time, baby. All right. How is everybody? So good. A few days off. Nice weekend. I'm back from Texas. We're here in, as I said at the top, the Chris Wesleying podcast studio, Greg in Mother Japan. Oh. Yeah. It is his mother. Taking a week off. Japan is his mom.

His mother-in-law.

Well, there's that too, but I'm saying the actual geographical place could be Greg's homeland in a way based on the family that he's united with.

Sure.

Guys, when are we going to Japan and doing a show? G-C.

We are going to go do a show in Japan in 2037.

Okay.

I'm in.

No budgetary concerns for that.

By the way, my voice is a disaster today, and this is an audio show, so that's a problem.

Well, I do, you know, you do a little true crime level deduction,

a little red string on the board.

Uh-huh.
