Hello and welcome to this opening night edition of Group Chat. I am Justin Barry joining me Big Rob, Big Wads.

0:37.1

We made it. We're all big times today.

0:41.1

Basketball's back, baby.

0:43.1

Medium-sized JV here. We are coming to you live the morning after opening night as games across the league are starting to open.

0:52.1

Was as the poet laureate of this podcast. Did you prepare any sort of opening statement or opening Hiku for us?

1:01.1

Opening Hiku.

1:04.1

Is sunny in Los Angeles, except on the days the Lakers have to play. That is the most.

1:13.1

Check the syllabus on that. I think it's a check out regardless that I've that's some of the most depressing basketball that I've seen in some time.

2:09.1

I still have no idea what he's talking about at any point. But it looks nice, I guess.

2:16.1

2:26.1

But there was a lot of padding around the edges for sure. It was like the beginning of Michael Clayton.

2:33.1

Just going through all the different rooms.

2:40.1
