| 0:00.0 | Hey, it's Bill Simmons. I wanted to tell you about Black on the air hosted by the one and only. |
| 0:06.1 | The great one, Larry Womor. Even though he's a Lakers fan, I still like him and he's talented. |
| 0:10.6 | But he has all kinds of guests on from Neil deGrasse Tyson to Al Franken to Bernie Sanders. |
| 0:16.8 | You name it. They're coming on pop culture politics, |
| 0:20.3 | these makers. And then at the beginning of every podcast, Larry does a little riff about whatever is |

| 1:27.2 | over professional wrestling, paper views, over beers and Brooklyn. Yeah, yeah, exactly. |
| 1:32.4 | It's been an ongoing podcast with 35 listeners for most of the time we've known each other. |
| 1:36.7 | And often just two. Yeah, this is the press box on the Ringer podcast network. |
| 1:48.4 | There are plenty of podcasts on the Ringer network, but this one is the most sporadic. |
