| 0:00.0 | Struck family, we're back. Another Saturday edition this time. |
| 0:04.9 | Jen Smith, Cassidy Landsmak-Wordert and Jessica Griffiths. You know why that's |
| 0:10.0 | important to say? Because seven interviews deep at the Granite Games, rushing to |
| 0:16.0 | get them onto the microphones after they won the Granite Games, I completely |
| 0:21.8 | forgot their name. How ridiculous is that? Sometimes it's |
| 0:26.2 | grand, but you know that feeling when you sit down and then you do something and |
| 0:30.3 | then you know your brain just went completely blank. It's like the most |
| 0:34.4 | terrifying thing, especially when you're surrounded by the most badass athletes |

| 1:15.5 | Athletes just show up and do the work. It's pretty cool. How to blast hanging out |
| 1:20.8 | with them and yeah get ready for a fun little embarrassing moment on my |
| 1:25.7 | behalf where I completely forget the names of some really badass athletes. |
| 1:30.7 | Make sure you get over to shrugcollective.com. BackslashVault. We've got 12 |
| 1:35.3 | programs in the vault and three of them are long-term or 11 programs. Sorry not |
| 1:40.7 | 12. We have 12 coming right now to show. We're going to be getting shredded in |
