| 0:04.0 | My nephew needs me to record. See, I hate it. I already hate it. I hate it. |
| 0:08.9 | All right. We're back here on the Chase Thomas podcast where I'm still the A for mention. Chase Thomas coming to you live from Knoxville, Tennessee, Everything in School, HQ. |
| 0:15.7 | Join me from Fanron Radio, Fox Sports Knoxville co-host of Underreview. It's Sam Beard. Sam, good afternoon, sir. How are you? |
| 0:24.8 | Yeah, good afternoon, Chase. Appreciate you having me on. Good to finally get on here. |
