Lots of stories, interviews and podcasts.

So be on the lookout for all of that.

In the meantime, we opened Sox Fest on Friday night with a special White Sox Talks Seminar at Sox Fest.

It was me and Jason Benetti with the two Ricks, GM Rick Hahn and manager Rick Rentaria.

It was a fun, candid conversation in front of a large gathering of White Sox fans, so we wanted to bring it to you just in case you are not at Sox Fest and you wanted to hear it,

or maybe you wore at Sox Fest and you were waiting in line for an autograph. So roll tape.

Welcome to Sox Fest 2018 live at the Hilton, Chicago.

It's the first seminar of Sox Fest 28, 2018, what year is it?

I'm Chuck Arfine here with Jason Benetti.

We've got a couple of big guests here, Rick Rentaria and Rick Hahn.

Thanks for being here.

Thanks for having it, Chuck.

Thanks for having me.

That's what I should really be saying.
