| 0:00.0 | Hey, no, and welcome to episode 644 of the official established the run.com podcast. |
| 0:23.2 | My name is Adam Levitan. |
| 0:24.2 | I'm one of the co-founders here at ETR and we are coming off of a leveling war kind |
| 0:29.6 | of week. |
| 0:30.6 | Yes, that's right. |

| 1:28.4 | And that's like the exact definition of a leveling war. |
| 1:31.9 | On a smaller scale, I only made one tournament team on Fandall this week, but it was a good |
| 1:36.8 | one ended up finishing third in the $888 buy-in. |
| 1:40.6 | I was just so tilted that I leveled myself at tight end. |
