The Hello I'm both in episode 816 of the sleeper and the bus it is Thursday, June 4. I'm your host Paul's 4 and I'm joined by Justin Mason.

Justin, what's going on?

Oh, it is another beautiful day in paradise. I have not had much sleep, which like brings me back to the old days. It's like a throwback.

Throwback. Throwback Thursday?

Yeah, it is a Thursday. That's right. Throwback Thursday.

Perfect.

Perfect. We're going to have a little bit of a shorter episode today. We don't have a ton to dive into but we have to talk about the retro draft from last night which we will get to.
