No, today's a special guest.

It's my good friend Nathan Hawthorne, a former Division I football football player played at Portland State University

a digital and double a school he's awesome one of my literally you're one of my best

friends and I've been wanting to do this for a long time and so I'm really excited

having on the show and I think it's I've just been

jazz about this for like all week. Yeah excited to be here we've talked about it quite a bit so yeah

finally got some time both of us have free let's get it on I'm I can say first I'm nervous to have another person on because I'm afraid that it's going to go really well and people are no longer going to like me by myself on the show

They're like man, I love you with the co-host so much. No, no.

It's great.

We have a lot of stuff to talk about today.

There's some breaking news with Chris Ours-Porsingus.

We'll talk about the Cowboys new offensive coordinator.

But first I want to start with a concept of culture.

I think culture really matters in sports.

I know you've had experiences on both sides of it.
