Summary

By now, the cat is probably well out of the bag that there is no new CME this week, after Ben decided to go on vacation with his family to some mountain lake. Just picture him, swinging comfortably in his hammock sipping Jameson, not a care in the world as his bedraggled wife chases their two children around the cabin, trying to keep them from eating rat poison or tumbling down a set of stairs. Meanwhile, Old Man Fowlkes sways in the breeze, oblivious. But look, Ben and Chad didn’t want to leave you high and dry this week with no CME-related entertainment at all. For that reason, they’ve planned a special announcement regarding NEXT week’s podcast, as well as a chance for you to revisit one of the more unique and popular single episodes in the show’s history.

Hey guys, it's Chad Dundas coming to you from Co-Main Event Podcast Headquarters.

As most of you probably know by now, there's no new CME this week owing to my intrepid co-host,

Ben Folks' decision to go on vacation with his family.

0:16.8

0:24.6

The CME will return next week with a normal episode, letting you know what we think about all the stuff that happens this weekend at UFC Fight Night 76.

0:33.6

This week, however, we wanted to both make an announcement and give you the opportunity to catch up on an old episode of the show if you are either a new listener or just in case it's been so long that you forgot about it.

0:46.6

First, the announcement, we're going to be doing another installment of the co-main event podcast book club coming up very soon.

0:54.7

Hopefully when Ben is back next week, we'll announce the particulars of that, what book

we're going to read and what the deadline will be for you to get all your thoughts to us to

include in the show.

1:05.3

First, though, we're going to turn back the clock to the first CME book club where we discussed Tank Abbott's novel

Bar Brawler. So listen to that, and it'll be a pretty good primer for what to expect the

second time around. Again, we will have all the information about that coming up on next week's show.

1:26.1

First, though, we wanted to remind you that each

and every episode of the co-main event podcast is brought to you by DraftKings.com. If you are a

fantasy MMA fanatic and you know all the fighters, you watch all the matches and you're
