0:00.0	Hello and welcome to The Great Beyond, and is this good companion pod where we follow up on last week's episode, answer listener questions, and catch up with each other.
0:08.9	The person I'm catching up with is, of course, Jason Doyle.
0:12.4	Hello.
0:13.5	Hi, JD. Thanks for coming today, especially because it's the 4th of July.
0:19.1	Oh, it's the 4th of July. Big holiday.

0:27.6	Oh, no.
0:28.3	I don't know if you've seen this, but we're recording this about 11 a.m. Pacific time.
0:34.5	And just before hopping on, I saw that the men's division of the Nathan's hot dog eating contest has been canceled. What? Due to inclement weather. So we get a tarp. No, they can't.

1:39.3	from what i'm seeing it's cancel i don't think you can do it unless it's on the fourth of july
1:43.0	because it kind of ruins the the whole of the event. Well, there's always next year, guys, always next year. So, is Kobayashi still in the game? Kobayashi is not in the game. Oh. I didn't look it up, but like, I think he's still competitive eating, but in a different league, maybe.
2:02.3	Okay.
2:03.1	Yeah, whatever, there's like, let's say this is called the World Eating Federation.
