| 0:13.0 | I'm Matt Morgan and I'm joined by my co-host who, if he and I went to a high school reunion, |

| 0:20.4 | The other one would definitely be Michelle. It's Dana Roach. What's going on, buddy? Um, you know, I had a joke here to tell about jumping rope, but I think I'm just going to skip it. Oh, tie that one off and throw it away. Good. Well played, sir. So we have a very special episode this week. I'm very, very excited for what we got to do this time around. |

We're going to get to have a live panel at the event. And so make |
