Welcome into the O'Anne Inquirer podcast.

It is Jeremy Warner and Derek Piper.

We got so much to talk about because, as we were talking about last week, Derek, we got to catch up with Brad Underwood and there's a lot of information there, including the Ty Rogers injury.

We'll dive into that, the impact it could have on the team, even though details a little sparse about how long he'll be out, all of that.

But also got a 40-minute talk with Brad Underwood, so a lot of information that we can dive into some of the topics we wanted to follow up on. But I would be remiss. I've had a lot of people ask me, it's episode 1,000 of the Ohio Inquirer podcast. Are you guys doing anything special? Maybe I should have. I thought about doing a mailbag, Derek, so maybe we can get to that

at some point. But we have a busy few weeks ahead of us with basketball, with football

recruiting. We have a football event. We're going to go talk to Luke Altmire, some of the players

at today, some big decisions coming up. We've got the NBA draft next week. So maybe entering July,

mid-July, we can have kind of that mailbag and kind of

talk about all of this. But I do want to acknowledge at 1,000 episodes of the podcast is pretty

awesome. It just means we have a lot of support here and we can't thank people enough that

allow us to do this because it's been really good for us.

And I think it allows us to connect with the fans.

I know a lot of people like to read our stuff and we love people that are VIP members,

the 5,000 plus that are that really is the backbone of what we do.

But the support here, like I hear more people come up to us and say,

listen to the podcast than talk about what we wrote or all of this. So we understand the podcast

is a big part of people's lives, whether it's driving to work, makes the drive a little bit

better, a walk outside or your exercise and at the gym or whatever it is. And some people

listen to this with their kids. So hopefully you turn it down every once in a while and we give you enough. If we do drop a curse word or two every once in a while, we try to stay away from that. But just more than anything, thanks for making us a part of your lives and supporting us. Derek, it's pretty cool that people await each drop of the podcast here. Yeah, it's awesome. And we very much appreciate it. Like you said,

anywhere out on the road, people come up and say, hey, love the podcast, listen to it when I'm at the

gym on the treadmill or, like you said, commuting back and home from work and stuff like that.
