Welcome to On The Bench. I'm your host for this episode of Bread and Sonone, joined by

Zach Laustine. I don't know why I said your name, Mike, but I feel like it's kind of messed

up. No, it's no. I don't know. I just don't like the pronunciation. Pronouns are right.

Happy holidays to everyone. I hope everyone is enjoying time with your family. But yeah, excited

to get back into it. Take a little, not even a break, but just a day or two off, obviously.

At least I did. I don't know if Brendan did just to, I don't know, recover after that side.

The crazy, not even just, you know, Wednesday of the three-day sounding period, the Thursday as well,

with the end of the Conrad Housey Recruitment, which we'll get into in a little bit, but man,

needed a little break, but I'm ready to get back into it. Recharge the batteries, buddy,

that people in those 24-7 on the on-conquered board were getting mad that you didn't have scoop

for them on Christmas Eve. What am I going to write about? You should be calling all your

sources on Christmas Eve and pestering them for more information. No, I get, I get, I mean,

we were posting probably what, Daly's, we can't talk about how good we are. No, don't do that.

Yeah, so let's move on. The Conrad Housey Recruitment.

Real quick, before we get to the Conrad Housey Recruitment, let's give a shout-out to our sponsor

for the end of the month. Yeah, and they have a very cool event coming up here in Orlando on Wednesday,

evening. That's only like two days away. It's coming up quick. And that is the battle's end.

Maybe you've heard of them. Battles and collectives putting on a block party in downtown Orlando,

129 West Church Street. If you know, you know that Harry Buffalo from 4 p.m. to midnight.

Have you ever heard of Jake Owen, Zachary? Oh, yeah. Yeah, he will be headlining

an acoustic music set. It's pretty cool, right? Yeah, that kind of got lost in translation on

signing it when we were talking about it. It's going to be just struck out with him in the guitar.
