0:00.0	Hey, hey, it's Conrad Thompson, and you're listening to Foley is Pod.
0:15.1	And, of course, we couldn't do it without the Hall of Fame or himself, the hardcore legend, Mr. Mick Foley.
0:19.6	Mick, how are you, man?
0:20.8	Great, Conrad. Great to be here for week three on Foley's pod. I'm excited for it, man.

1:21.7	I think it was maybe a year into training where I decided I wanted to do something.
1:27.2	It seemed crazy at the time.
