This is The Busted Open Podcast.

You can listen to the full show, seven days a week from 9 a.m. to noon, eastern

on Serious XM Fight Nation Channel 156. You know what's going on, Busted Open Nation,

and thanks to tuning into another edition of the Busted Open After Dark Podcast.

with Don Callis, getting us ready for Techester

There was, there was the Swerve vignette.
