From the Clark Ford studio in Oxford, Mississippi, MBW Digital proudly presents the Oxford Exxon podcast.

I'd say thanks for tuning in, but why am I going to give you a round of applause for something that you're supposed to do, to be frank?

And now, here are your hosts, Chase Palm.

And broadcast school is really paid off.

And Neil McCrady.

I deserve to be on TV.

Walker Jones, head of the Grove Collective, now joining us on the Raptors Music and Food Hotline.

Walker, thanks for the time.

You made it to Houston last night, almost playing in the Texas Bowl.

By the time people hear this tonight, 8 o'clock for that one against the Red Raiders.

We'll start here.

We're going to talk about a huge deal for you guys, a huge deal for Ole Miss, a national

partnership that should get a lot of play and be great on a number of fronts.

We'll get into all those in a second.

But just you've been on the job for a little bit now.

How's it gone?

And then was it sort of what you expected? I mean, when you first get that call and this is a thaw

and all those sort of things. So to right now, what's been, what's been sort of the gist for you?

Yeah, Chase, thanks for having me. I appreciate it. And Merry Christmas to everybody and I hope everybody's

enjoying the holiday time off. And like you said, we're over here in Houston and excited about

a bowl game tonight and see if we can get back on the winning side of things. I think getting

the nine wins is important to kind of kill the losing street that we found ourselves in.
