All right, buddy, I'm back, fresh out of Madison, little game last night.

Man, you're, you're becoming quite the, like, socialite, man.

I was just about to say, dude, I mean, you're going to, do you have, like, one of those cushy, like, red seats in the stands?

Now you got, what, you got season ticks?

Yeah. No, I just post a couple off a seat geek like we're talking about that's right our new sponsor seat geek

we are we are right back into the uh you know 21st century but yeah it is November 18th the year

it's 2025 looking for everybody you're listening

to the crushing iron podcast this is episode 891 yeah yeah it was just nice to see a

wisconsin badger team actually score some points unlike the football team yeah well you know they've had a um you know they they they've had

putting it all together and everybody's got their team and uh but yeah that's how it is it was a decently

not i wouldn't say it's super busy but a fairly you know had a full iron

many at Iron Mania Arizona which was the the final the final call for Ironman

it seems like a different life it really I mean it was a different life but it was uh um
