0:00.0 | Everybody, what is going on? You know what time it is. You're listening to join the Journey podcast with your host, Emma, daughter. |
0:08.8 | What's up, guys? It's your guest host, Jermaine Harrison, back again with my guest co-host, Will McElroy. Will, how are you doing after last night's Shoreline? |
0:19.0 | I'm doing good, Jermaine. A little tired, but we had a blast. |
0:22.7 | How about you? |
0:23.3 | I'm doing great. |
