| 0:00.0 | Welcome to the Andy Staples show. I'm really glad we're getting to do this because, yes, it's a show about college football, |
| 0:24.3 | but we all know that my first love is food and that as soon as the Food Network offers me a show, |
| 0:30.8 | I am out of here. |
| 0:32.4 | The athletic is done and I'm moving on. |
| 0:35.2 | So this will give me a little head start on my next career because |

| 1:37.9 | wing or two. And he went to Magic City and he got the lemon pepper wings and he reviewed them for the athletic. |
| 1:47.1 | So Chris, what is it like to be the first sports writer in about 30 years to legitimately have |
