0:00.0	And away we go, episode one thousand one hundred sixty-four of the Al-Galdi podcast. It is Friday, September 26, 2025. It has been
0:25.8	nearly five years since Commander's receiver Terry McLaren did not play in one of the
0:31.2	team's regular season games. December 27th, 2020. That was the last time that McLaren missed a regular season game. Is that run about to end
0:40.8	with the team's game at the Atlanta Falcons this Sunday afternoon at one? McLaren on Thursday

1:38.1	What would be best out of those three jobs? A football player, someone who works in landscaping,
1:43.8	or a YouTuber.
1:45.4	I kind of think YouTuber might be the way to go.
1:47.6	Hello and welcome to this Friday installment of the Al-Galdi podcast.
1:51.2	Coming up on the show, in-depth preview of commanders at the Falcons.
