Welcome, everybody to the free money

podcast episode, who knows of season five.

Obviously, I'm not Matt Jones, so he won't be with us today.

But Jay and I, we really wanted to put an episode out because we'll miss two weeks already.

We can't just make

it the every other week podcast. So we're getting together on a Friday without Matt,

Drew Franklin here, Jay and Lyndon. We had to get some content for the free money listeners.

Might even be a mini episode because we both have quite a busy day. But it's not just the two of us

today. We needed help and we need someone in the third chair.

So we brought in a name. KSR Nation definitely knows Ms. Tyler Thompson, the king of the website,

is here joining us today, hopefully not carrying on Matt's tradition of a losing record every week.

Tyler, welcome to the program. Thank you. Thank you. I am very pleased to be making my first free money appearance. I wanted to kind of make it like Matt. I want to take his spot. So I didn't have time to go get some McDonald's cups. I can take down the pictures from the wall if you all need me to. I mean, I know our listeners can't see this, but I want to make it seem like home. Well, and I don't want to completely throw Matt under the bus. I was in New York until Thursday, so I'm mainly the scheduling problem. Matt couldn't do Thursday night, but we're excited to have Tyler here. All of us

have a busy day with I just literally walked in the door from our remote this morning. We got

pregame coming up basketball tonight. Jay, I hear you're going on vacation. Where are we taking the family?

Somewhere to Florida. That's what we're hearing. That's what we're hearing out there, Drew.

So trying to get my last minute things going. And look, truth be told, the reason that Tyler is here is Matt has

been doing so poorly. We had to bring in somebody else, Drew.

I will brag on myself, Drew, this is six weeks in a row. I haven't been negative. I have been,

I've had at least an even or positive picks the last several weeks. I'm excited about that.

I want to keep that streak alive.

And I will say something else. Drew, remember when we first started this, we talked about

beef that you and I had. Oh, yeah. Since then, we've come together. We're all good.
