| 0:11.0 | Welcome in to another episode of DeCecho Daily. |
| 0:13.8 | It's Andrew DeCecho Eagles beat reporter for Inside the Birds.com. |
| 0:18.1 | And Adam Kaplan has you covered on the Dantavian Wicks trade. |
| 0:21.8 | In case you missed it, there is an ITB emergency podcast where Adam gives you the ins and outs |
