| 0:10.0 | So what's up guys it's Jimmy. Thank you for tuning in. Thank you for being our favorite. |
| 0:16.0 | Our favorite audience, the Talking Yanks crowd has been with us from the start. It was the very first podcast we did here. |
| 0:24.0 | We had no idea what we were doing and it's turned into a real thing. We have 14 I think 14 podcasts on the John Boy Media network. |
| 0:34.0 | We hope that you check out whichever ones fall under the interest that you are interested in. |
| 0:39.0 | But I really want you to check out this one. I'm going to play you the start of season six. It's last from the past. |
| 0:45.0 | I'm sure you've heard us talk about it before. We played an episode or two on here before season six. |
| 0:52.0 | Daybued on Tuesday. 10 episodes and it is all about baseball. |

| 2:07.0 | And then hopefully stick around for season seven, eight, nine and ten or whatever, how long we keep doing it. |
