It's the Boomer and Geo podcast from WFAN.

You know, I was telling Al Dukes, as we come to you from the Bill Ford Tough Studio here at WFAN, Boomer and Geo, of course. I was asking Al Dukes in the break because, you know, we talk sports in the break. Me and Al, we like to break it down. We like to look at different things. Al loves talking sports in the break. I know. When I asked him, I said, so Juan Soto has played, what, eight seasons, I guess, in the, in Major League Baseball.
