0:00.0	Hey, L cheaters. Welcome to the always cheating podcast. My name is Josh. I'm here with Brandon. Brandon, how are you? Doing all right, Josh. Game week six in the books. I think it was kind of up and down for
0:27.8	different managers. And here we are, Josh. I had a good game week and yours not so much. So I think
0:34.6	that's always a good situation for the pod to be in where we get both
0:40.0	perspectives on the game week, which will then result probably in different perspectives looking
0:45.8	ahead to game week seven, which as we know is the first double game week of the season. Does this
0:53.3	double have you super excited?
0:56.8	Well, you know, well, I would say no, but, you know, I think there's certainly something
1:02.8	to talk about. And I think we can get into that a little bit. And it's, it's interesting to

I have three top 10K finishes in the last five years. So, you know, I don't, like, I wouldn't say my confidence is shaken. And I enjoy poker.
1:45.1	I enjoy poker. I enjoy gambling. I've done a lot of
2:05.8	both. And I know what it's like to go on an extended losing streak. And that's what I'm going
