20 minutes a day, 365 days a year.

This is the Pack a Day podcast.

What is up, everybody? Welcome in to an all new episode of the Packaday podcast. Yes, I am your

host, Andy Herman. You can follow me on Twitter at Andy Herman NFL. I cannot tell you how great

and amazing it is to be talking to you today. For somebody who does this 365 days a year,

for somebody who's been doing this for over five years consecutive, for somebody who I don't

think has missed a day, at least prior to training camp, we've never missed a day, period,

on the podcast in this entire time. But for me personally, it's been a while since I haven't been

on to not have an episode to do or to not be able to do this for two consecutive weeks,

I think longer than that, has felt insane. I feel like I'm out of my mind. I don't even know

if I'm going to still know how to do this. I'm hoping that it's just like riding a bike.

I know it's only been two weeks, but like I said, when you do it every single day for so long

and then miss two weeks of doing it, man, does it feel weird?

And for those of you wondering, like two weeks, Andy, I just heard you like a week ago. For those who don't know, a week ago, or two weeks ago now, I went on vacation to Florida

for a full week. But, but I wisely recorded a whole week's worth of episodes in advance,

except for one, except for the Jacob and Jacob Senior Bowl episode, which I knew I wasn't

going to be able to give full attention

to the senior bowl as I was getting everything else prepared for the week in advance.

So I asked them to do that episode and fill in for me on that day.

Outside of that episode, I recorded all those episodes in advance up until the following Saturday.

And I was, you know, I had everything set up perfect,

right? Everything was going to go off without a hitch and I would get back. We left Friday morning.
