0:00.0	Today's episode of the BS podcast on the Ringer podcast network brought to you by Zippercruder.
0:04.4	If you're an employer, you know how challenging it can be to hire, but right now you face even more
0:08.8	challenges. Matt's and resources could relate. They needed to hire a seasoned senior Citrix
0:13.8	administrator to provide IT support. So they turned our presenting sponsor Zippercruder and that's
0:19.6	how they found Peter Alcantar Jr. He was laid off during COVID-19, needed to find another job
0:25.3	quickly. So he posted his resume and Zippercruder. Zipp identified him as a great match for the role
0:31.5	of Matt's and resources to hired Peter and less than three weeks. See how Zippercruder can help you
0:36.5	hire. Try it now for free at zipcruder.com slash BS. We're also brought to you by the Ringer podcast

0:49.3	He's doing it twice a week. Please check it out. It is it's going to be really good. I think it's

1:20.0	He doesn't really do podcast that much, but it was really fun having him on. Now I'm just going to
1:24.3	force him to come on. We're off. But that's coming up in one second quick programming note.
1:29.2	This is going to be the last podcast of the week. We're taking a few days off here at the Ringer
1:34.4	just because of the July 4th. All that stuff. There's going to be no recillipodcast on Sunday.
1:38.7	This podcast will not return until next Tuesday. There is going to be a rewatchables coming
1:47.1	tomorrow night Wednesday night. The perfect storm. That's happening. 20 year anniversary. So stay
1:53.7	tuned for that. And then there won't be another podcast after that. And I think we're still on
1:57.9	I we're probably not going to do the Sunday night pod again until the second and last week of July
