| 0:33.9 | pins for this. We are joined by the man with no soul, no tan, the one you know and love. It is |
| 0:40.8 | Michael Leoni, our director of analytics. Michael, how's it going, buddy? |
| 0:44.6 | It's going pretty well. I've been trying to work on the tan, but the spreadsheets keep calling my name. |
| 0:49.1 | So it's been tough. It is where it is. Evan, good afternoon. How's it going? |
| 0:55.2 | Yeah, it's good. It's good to see you, Leoni, man. You're looking kind of skinny. You've been sick or |
