I'm James Rupin and welcome in to the Locked-on Bengals podcast on a Thursday.

Boy, do I have a story for you on Twitter at James Rupin at Lockdown Bengles.

Subscribe iTunes, Google Play, Spotify, Stitcher, and wherever you get your podcast.

Coming up on today's podcast, you're going to hear from William Jackson III. I talk one-on-one

with Darquez-Dinard and Vinnie Ray about new defensive coordinator, Terrell Austin. Plus,

you're going to hear part of my conversation from my show on ESPN 1530. I caught up with Jim

Osarsky of Cincinnati.com. You'll hear part of that conversation on today's podcast as well.

So real quick, story time.

It's first day of training camp.

Supposed to be this huge, momentous occasion.

And your boy, James, well, he did something that we've all done a time or two.

It's like the first day of school, right?

And you forget your

backpack. By the way, I did that once. So today, what I did is I forgot my microphone, and I'll give

you a quick 60 seconds on as to why. And so I apologize for the audio of this. I have to record it

into my phone, which isn't the best recording. But anyways, this is what happened. I ordered a new

microphone yesterday. I got it. It came in the mail. I tried it out in my office. And then I said,

okay, I can use this one in my office and use the one that I've always used and bring it down to

training camp. And I didn't put it in my bag.

So I will have it tomorrow. I promise I will have it tomorrow. You're going to have video of

Tony Pike and myself. I brought all the video equipment. That will be on locked on Bengals.com

at the end of today's training camp practice. But yeah, so that's what happened.
