Hey, Giant Fans. Welcome to The Giant Insider Podcast. My name is Jerry Foley. I'm the senior editor of the Giant Insider newspaper. And with me as always is the beat writer, the Heart of Giant's Nation, Big Trust Woo Woo, Chris Bizzignano.

Chris, we talk about often the several awesome tweets and direct messages that we get from from Twitter followers,

from fans of the podcast.

You know, I don't want to speak for you, but I think we got one on Saturday that was

probably the most personal and I don't know, it kind of shook us the most and it was incredible and I want to

share it with our followers with our listeners real quick it's from rich redmond who's

grandfather's of the same name rich redmond the first and rich redmond the third he said he said

this on saturday and we didn't see it till sunday so sometimes guys if you send us DMs we

don't see him for a while but we saw this, this was sent on Saturday. It says, hey guys, I hope you're both feeling well and staying safe. I only made a Twitter account to follow your podcast page and some other people. Anyway, I wanted to take a second to tell you how much of a difference you make. My grandfather is 78 and has been a Giants fan since he was a kid in the 40s

and made me into a Giants fan. Unfortunately, he doesn't really follow as much because it's hard to get

real sports analysis and not just sports personalities. He is currently quarantined in the hospital

after testing positive for COVID-19. I asked him if you wanted me to bring him anything to keep himself

busy or entertained. He immediately asked for his iPad and headphones so he could listen to that

giant show, you showed me this week, quote unquote. I dropped it off with the nurse and called a few

hours later to see how he was, and she told me he's been listening to your podcast for hours.

We love the podcast, and it really makes he's been listening to your podcast for hours. We love the

podcast, and it really makes me really happy that your content makes him happy enough. It's the

first thing he wanted, and he had been referring to himself as a buffoon all week. Keep up the

amazing work, guys. I know it may feel like what you do doesn't impact a lot, but for him, you really brought

him back into Giants fandom and listening to the podcast really makes him happy. It's a joy to see.

Thank you again. And we both can't wait till Wednesday. And that is, uh, that is tough, man. That's,

holy cow, I can't read it. Every time I read it, man, it's read it every time i read it man it's it's tough to
