I hear it's pretty cool.

James, we're going to start with a bunch of news. We haven't done news in a while. There really

wasn't much in the way of nude breaking developments out of Paul Brown Stadium during the biweek.

We talked to Zach Taylor last week. We talked to Brian Callahan last week and yesterday. So if you

missed any of those, last reminder, or maybe second to last reminder, to go check

out all of last week episodes.

If you took the by week off like the Bengals, we have conversations with Zach Taylor,

Brian Callahan, Joe Goodberry, so a lot of really good content out there.

But some news items as the team reconvened coming out of the bye week.

And Jesse Bates, C.J. Uzama, among others, talked to the media.

And we'll talk about Jesse Bates in the second segment before we reset expectations for the second half of the season in the third part of the show.
