| 0:00.0 | Hey this is Dr Kelly Starrett with Everford Radio. |
| 0:03.0 | Today we're going to be talking about a lot of things, but number one, it's a long, long game |
| 0:08.2 | and you better start playing like it's a long game. |
| 0:09.8 | It's the infinite game. |
| 0:10.8 | Welcome back everyone. |
| 0:15.0 | This is your number one source for inspiring content from people who are putting a |
| 0:21.0 | purpose to their passion and truly living a life ever forward. |
| 0:26.0 | Conversations and messages that will take your fitness, nutrition, and mindset to the next level. |
| 0:32.0 | I am your host host Chase Chuning. This is ever forward radio. Mr Supple leopard himself we've got the one and only Kelly Starrett on the show. |
