B. Oh, Welcome in the two for one draft, the Wednesday edition of two for one draft,

0:25.0

still doing one podcast per week in the off season. Mike, I think we bump it up to two sometime in July maybe late July early August is where we get back to two and

0:39.3

We'll really get things going ahead of the college football season. But right now doing one per week.

0:43.9

We need football to get it back to two.

0:45.6

We need something to happen to get it back to two.

0:48.0

There's just nothing going on right now.

0:50.4

And also, I would like to get back in the office.

0:52.7

Like, I mean, the conversations are so much better

0:55.7

1:53.8

tools but they need to take the next step. They need to show me a little more in terms of

1:58.0
