That's the nothing personal word of the day. Apple. It is currently Thursday, September

0:22.0

7, 2023. The NFL season starts tonight with the Chiefs in the Lions, but I'm starting

0:29.0

this show with a subject we don't often talk about, but it's a good one. Caleb Williams,

0:36.2

he's the quarterback, the Rainian Heisman winner, plays for USC. His father got in the news

0:43.5

yesterday and blew my mind. I have now had my foundation rocked for everything I used

0:51.6

NFL franchises are quivering in their cleats. Freaking out that the chaos for Caleb, which

games, let's say two games and then get the first pick. And Caleb and his father say,

2:35.8
