| 0:00.0 | This is an I-Heart podcast. |
| 0:04.3 | The Around the NFL podcast is huge in England and other surrounding territories. |
| 0:13.1 | Hi, everybody. It's Around the NFL. |
| 0:15.9 | A special edition of Around the NFL. I'm Dan Hansis, joined by Mark Sessler. |
| 0:23.6 | We were in England earlier this month, as many of you know, listeners, doing our annual trip there. We've done five trips to |
| 0:30.7 | England now as part of the Around the NFL podcast and connecting with our great listeners overseas. |
| 0:38.1 | And Mark, part of our latest adventure was a trip to Sky Sports and their studios there |

| 1:37.7 | And it's like this connection is the most special part of what we do. |
| 1:42.0 | And Neil's always been a friend to us, an ally, someone that |
| 1:45.6 | whenever we've gone over there, we've been on Sky Sports a bunch, hung out with Neil, had |
