Welcome to Beyond the Ring.

This is Dale Hummel, along with co-star, Ryan Rash.

Hello, hello, hello.

And by the way, before Dale says anything else, and to all my people out there, I just

want y'all to know, I got a lot of shit to say this week,

so Dale's not going to get to talk much. So we're not going to have time for aliens or China.

China! Oh, we have to. China is on the radar. China is on the radar. What part of this did I say

you be silent? No, not on the China part. Silent and still. Silent and still.

So I'm going to start out real quick.

So first of all, I've had a terrible last 10 days in terms of travel.

It's been awful.

It's been crazy.

I've never had so many flight delays cancellations and all this stuff.

And I do want to give two very special shoutouts to the South

Dakota Spotlight in the Butler County Junior Fair for working with me. And even though it was not

my fault, I was late, because it would have been airlines' fault. I appreciate them saying,

you know what? We'll delay. we'll handle this at whatever we just

want you to be there so i appreciate that now that's all the good feelings i have for people that's it so
