And the You are listening to the Battle Already Podcast. My name is Brian Hartley. I'm one of the producers on the show.

And before we dive into today's episode, we wanted to give you a quick intro into the next few episodes.

Podcast especially Battle Day love to go long, and as much as we love a long episode,

we want to try to limit the conversations, not just just for content but to get you right to the good stuff.

We'll leave you with insightful and meaningful episodes and then I'll let you get on with your day.

Who knows if they'll actually go shorter, but it's going to be a fun

experiment for sure. So let us know in an email or comment on

Instagram if you're like in the new format and let's just jump into it.
