Welcome to the athletic football show.

0:51.3

I'm Robert Maze.

0:52.2

Joining me today.

0:53.2

It's my good buddy Nate Tyson.

0:54.4

Nate, how you doing, man? I'm good. This is, uh, we're back to normal, which is. Yeah, I know. Like this is what's kind of funny. It's like, this is the normal setting. It was so funny, even like when we were sitting there doing the live show, like just even turning and talking to you, like felt weird like it was just like oh my god you're right there like we're actually talking

0:53.5

it's not like my cat my God, you're right there.

1:11.7

Like we're actually talking.

1:12.4

It's not like my cat's meowing in the background or something like that. Like just like trying to figure out where to put the microphone. It's like, oh, no, I can actually just talk. It's nice because this is the last pod you and I would record before I move. and my new house has, I have an office, it's going to be a studio, it's going to be closed off.

1:12.0

I'll not be doing it from my kitchen table. So hopefully, even if we're apart from now on, the setup can be a little more advanced than it's been over the last year as I've been crammed into this apartment in pandemic life where I have no space of my own to actually record the shows.

2:24.7

And we're going to try to pick up some of those pieces here right now and do a draft recap of sorts.

2:30.2

Obviously, we responded to the first round live. It was incredibly fun.

2:35.3

It's a night I'll never forget for a lot of different reasons.

2:38.3

We'll talk about the Bears a little bit because I do think they're going to come up in one of the topics that we want to discuss here.

2:43.5

But rather than pigeonhole us into any one thing here, I just wanted to do big picture draft takeaways.
