0:04.4	EPL fantasy challenge, Coca-Cola are giving you a chance to win big by beating the best. All you
0:09.6	have to do is build a team based on rules set by an icon. And to help you on your way, I've got a
0:14.6	tip to help you build your team. Make sure you keep an eye on fixtures. Who are the players
0:19.0	up against next? Sometimes it's not about form.
0:21.7	Like there are some players that, for whatever reason, always play well against certain teams.
0:27.0	To do your research. To get involved in the EPL Fantasy Challenge, all you've got to do is grab a
0:31.9	Coke and scan the code on the pack. Just by playing, you get a chance to win Coke swag or
0:36.6	vouchers. But if you beat the icon who
0:39.1	set the rules, you could win vintage Coca-Cola jerseys, Premier League tickets, and more. So go
0:45.0	ahead and get involved. Grab a Coke, drink it in. Guys, this episode is about June 10th. Sorry,

2:00.6	Welcome to the history hyenas new episode where today we're just going to be two white guys talking about June teeth.
2:07.8	Now, today I came in right on time, but I shouldn't have. I should have been a little late to celebrate Juneteen.
2:15.5	Yes, yes. That's what I thought. And I thinking normally these
2:18.7	episodes come out at 11 a.m. Easter time on Thursdays, but we've asked Jesse to put it out at 1145.
2:24.4	Now, take that as you will. Either that was a joke about black people being late or it was a joke
