Heyo! Welcome to Heat the Call, an NFL podcast.

And this feels like a good time to have an NFL podcast because it is day one of free agency.

And we are live across the world.

Thank you, Al Gore.

Dan Hans was here.

Mark Sessler, Connor, or Justin Graver on the ones and twos.

Oh, baby, Sessie, here we are again. Happy New Year. It is the new year. It's a wild time. I don't know if Al Gore understands this is occurring right now, but that's okay. We've moved beyond the Al Gore aspect of this. We're post-Gore, Connor. We're post-Gore. Sadly, yeah. Well, to be clear, he's still alive, Al Gore. That's not what we were saying. No, no, I mean, just like I wish he won president. Right, right, right. That would have been good. And his cultural moment has ceased. Anyway. We always know how to start the show. Every time.

Every time.

Shout out to everybody that's live with us in the chat.

We will, of course, check in with you guys periodically.

And I don't think there's any time to waste.

There's so much that has happened since the negotiating period opened up just three hours ago.

So let's dive right into it and let us start.

We'll do it the old, the triangle journalistically, right?

Carter, right?

Connor, it's what are they called?

names and kind of work our way down. But I mean, these type of shows are a reminder that a month

and a half from now, two months from now, like the 40th item in today's show would lead the show in

the off season. So there's a lot to get to. So let's dive right in and And let's start with the chiefs looking to get off the mat. And they make a big splash on the opening of free agency. Of course, I say the opening of free agency. You guys get it by now. You're watching our show. You're listening to our show.
