off his worst career, ERA, 4.79.

0:39.3

How about that?

0:40.3

0:45.7

Hey, Witty.

Chris Whittlinger joining us here.

The reason he has to speak up for himself and introduce himself basically is because Taylor and Stu and Mikey have no idea why he's on. So, Winnie, thanks for hopping on with us. Is that the production and planning that goes into this podcast? That sounds about, right? I can tell you exactly how it works. The fancy young land is always welcome here. He can come on whenever the hell he wants to come on. I'm just wondering why he's coming on in the middle of football season. We usually have them on when the World Cup comes around. But it's also the middle of the other football season. Right. We're reaching the pinnacle of the other football season. I used the, because it's always an open door, like you said, Stu, for Whitty.

But Witty, yeah, so I texted that. And then it took, I think, two full days for, I think it was Stuart Taylor, to be like,

2:22.4

why do we have Woody on?

2:24.2

And I'm just like, only because the world's most famous soccer player is about to do what

2:29.9

Stu Gatz has required he do when he got to the United States, but he's clueless about it. Mm-hmm. All right, soccer. They just keep playing.
