| 0:27.9 | 14 days. Two weeks from the day, we're going to be staring in each other's eyes at the |
| 0:35.5 | amazing Joe's on Wheat Street. Coming out to our draft party, did somebody mention it's only 10 bucks to get in? Did somebody mention that it's $65 all you can drink? Did somebody mention that it's sponsored by IDOT and they're encouraged you to have a designated driver or use an Uber? It's going to be a lot of fun. Thursday, the April 23rd, Friday, April 24th.

| 1:14.5 | You should know that, you know, one of the first things I did today was wake up and I, you know, of course, making terrible decisions in life, just go right to social media and start to ruin my day immediately. |
| 1:25.9 | And there it is, Hogue's tweeting about the masters or whatever you put out there. And I was like, oh, got to talk about the Masters for the next. No, you don't. But we do.
