You're listening to the Co-Main Event Podcast, and now your hosts, Ben Folks and Chad Dundas.

That's right. You're listening to another episode of the Co-Main Event martial arts podcast. I'm Chad Dundas, alongside Ben Folks, as always. We're both senior writers in MMA for the athletic, and we meet here every single week to chop up all the prominent, newsworthy, and hilarious happenings in the world of mixed martial arts. Ben, when I say we meet here this week, I'm talking about a different location because we are currently in your basement.

That's right.

Owing to the holiday, Labor Day today.

We thought it might be a little bit less of a kid-rich environment if we were recorded up here rather than at my house because my at least my two

boys are at home rumbling around the house causing trouble as they so often are so we decided to

come over here to record but right as we were going to hit record your family came home that's right

so we are uh we're up here at casa de folks in the basement still in what I got to consider a fairly kid plentiful location.

Yeah.

We're probably here of them stomping around upstairs while we're recording this.

Also, I don't know if you noticed it on your way in.

We're in the basement, which is also home to a Barbie dream house.

Yeah, big time.

It's like a three-story Barbie dream house over there that my wife found on the side of the road that somebody just gave away free.

And it was the greatest thing to ever happen to my two daughters.

One of them, when she was going to sleep that night, that first night that we brought it in,

wanted to get up out of bed to go downstairs and check and make sure it was really real and that night, that first night that we brought it in, wanted to get up

out of bed to go downstairs and check and make sure it was really real, and that it had not been

just like some beautiful hallucination she'd had about her life. And then that way, with that knowledge,

she could comfortably sleep. So the pull of the Barbie Dreamhouse might prove to be too much.

They might run down here, have to get in on some of this stuff.

So anything could happen is what I'm saying.
