and Oh, Hey everybody welcome to another episode of Purple Insider Matthew Collar here on a Friday night.

Thank you everybody for joining also while we still

work the kinks out a little bit with the studio here. Hopefully now we have upgraded to HD from Standard Def through the first few days of the new studio and I think it's working and it looks okay.

So let me know if there's any glitches for those in the comments but always

improving so this thing's going to continue to look a little better sound a

about the Minnesota Vikings and this is a good time to do that and then we'll evaluate it again after the preseason game and you folks who liked late

nights live broadcasting you're really gonna like the Seattle one so I'm not going to Seattle

so I'll be here in the studio I'll be here in the studio. I'll be watching it the same as you will

You know the the O'Connell preseason games probably not always worth the travel I guess so I'll be watching it with you and then I'll be on the channel right after the game ends like literally the final gun right here on the YouTube channel going live to break it all down and the same is going to happen
