Welcome into the Alainan Inquirer podcast, Alainanquire Publisher, Jeremy Warner here.

We're excited to bring in Jay Lehman, Alina Inquirer, Football analyst to break down his reaction to a disappointing 4225 loss for Illinois in Washington.

Got to apologize off the start of this podcast.

Yes, we did do a live post game podcast in Seattle, Joy Wagner and I.

But the audio, we had some technical difficulties there, which were really frustrating because we didn't hear it on our end.

And I know you guys did that we're on that live post game podcast.

We appreciate everyone that was joining us.

But sorry, we couldn't fix those because we just couldn't hear them like you guys could.

I still don't know what went wrong there.

The internet seemed fine.

All of that.

But anyway, I know as a podcast listener myself that there's nothing more frustrating than bad audio, and we had bad audio for 20 minutes. So I just decided to scrap that. So apologies to those who couldn't hear, who couldn't get our reaction to what happened with that defense. But that's why we're bringing in Jay Lehman. Here on Monday, we had a travel day yesterday, so we weren't to to re-record it or anything but we're excited to get jaylaman in we're going to catch up with aaron henry barry lennie bret beauma on monday just an hour or so after we record this podcast with jay so we'll have reaction to that later in the week you can be at alina enquiry.com and all that, but I do want to apologize to you guys for some audio technical difficulties. And one of the things we'd like to do is be consistent. So we are apologizing that you didn't have your post game podcast a reaction to. So I know that's a big part of your days. We appreciate you guys, but just wanted to acknowledge that off the top of the bat. But we do have Jay Lehman, who gives better analysis than I do anyway. So let's get Jane Lehman in here. But first, I do want to talk about one of our great new sponsors here on the Lion & Inquirer podcast. And we told you about it last week, Game Day Spirit. We're excited to bring them in as a new sponsor of the show. They love our show and our audience and are wanting to extend their opening discount offer with our listeners for another week. This couldn't come at a better time. With cold weather finally showing up here in Central Illinois, now is a great time to visit Game Day Spirit.com and pick out some new Alani pieces to bundle up for the rest of the fall. One of the things that I love most about shopping at Game Day Spirit is that they're always

bringing in new items almost every day they have something new hit the shelf.

And in the past week alone, they've added new quarter zips from Nike, a new brand,

flag and anthem, and more NIL basketball jerseys, Nike military appreciation style

bomber jackets and more.

So go check them out.

There's truly no better place to go get your fighting line egg gear than Game Day Spirit.
