conference tournament week get started. Matt Jones and

0:24.9

Drew Franklin and Billy, we're going to do some news. Drew, we haven't had news in a while.

0:30.4

I don't know if you've noticed since we haven't had it. A lot of stuff has happened. I've just been

walking around aimlessly. Like, where is the news? What is going on? This is all going to surprise you. But Billy has gone through the news headlines. He has picked, he only found nine things that he thought were newsworked. In Billy's opinion, there are only nine news stories. It tells me we have room to bring up our own topic.
