Oh my goodness, good morning, good afternoon.

Whatever it is for you, I hope you're having a fantastic day.

My name is Zach Schomler.

This is Strong Opinion Sports episode 682.

Welcome in.

Hope we're doing great.

Let me check.

Yes, the audio is recording. I'm nervous.

Look, this is my third time recording the intro now. I've been recording for about 10 minutes

total, and I'm yet restarting now for the third time. It's funny. I haven't done an episode

one-on-one like this in a long time. It's usually been me and Nathan recently. And I'm incredibly nervous.

I'm like sweaty. I can feel it. I don't know why. I've done hundreds and hundreds of episodes

by myself this style. And yet for some reason, this, this time, this episode, just it's intimidating.

I don't know why. It's funny. You get out of practice, I think. you take a couple weeks off of doing the one-on-one thing. And then when you come back to it, it's like horrifying. But I hope we're doing well. I'm doing great.

I've been really busy at my other job. The schedule is challenging. I've got meetings at 7 a.m.

Almost every day. And when you're staying up late watching football, then you're up late,

then leaving early. It's a tough challenging schedule. But being busy in the HVAC world, it's a blessing.

Like I shouldn't complain.

It's a good problem to have.

But I really, I'm doing great.

I hope you're doing well.

Welcome to the show.
