This is Thai, my voice is getting better, but I'm still trying to rest it before attacking the offseason.

Luckily, you're in good hands with Dan and Max Olson as they talk about coaching hires and transfers and probably pizza at some point.

Also, you probably didn't know this about me, but I consistently lose to Dan at table tennis.

Enjoy the show.

Welcome to the Solid Verbal.

I'm a man. I'm 40.

I've heard so many players say, why I want to be happy. You want to be happy for a day either state.

It's that wolf, wolf, and down and Thai.

Hey everybody and welcome back to the Solid Verbal.

This is once again the voice of your at least second favorite host of the show, Dan,

because Thai's voice is still on the mend as you well know.

But that's okay, because we here at the Solid Verbal are not just committed to five star talent hosting the show, which we happen to have today.

But we also have a contributor to the five star culture at the Solid Verbal.

We're talking about a writer for the athletic.

We're talking about what I believe to be from his Instagram a softball champion, a resident of Nebraska.

Somebody who I looked up his most popular tweet in the last year or so and it involved a frog and a spider.

That's right. Ladies and gentlemen, Max Olsen. How's life?

Hello, hello. Thank you for having me on.

I'd like to clarify that I was the worst player on a softball team in a pre-pandemic softball team.

But I appreciate you mentioning my small trophy collection here.

I'm good, man. I'm a couple of weeks away from becoming a father.

So that is very exciting.
