| 0:00.0 | Hey guys, coming up today on Sports Spectrum. |
| 0:02.9 | Bradley Pinyon, Atlanta Falcons punter is our guest. |
| 0:06.0 | And today is a bit of a bonus podcast for all of our listeners because this came together |
| 0:11.7 | last week. |
| 0:12.9 | We taped this interview yesterday, being Monday, December 18th. |
| 0:17.7 | And Brad, when I found out the work that he's been doing with Compassion International, |
