Hello and welcome to the Yahoo Sports Fantasy podcast. It is me, Liz Loza, and I am joined by

0:08.1

Dalton Del Don, as always on our Thursday recordings. Dalton, how are you? Staying dry. It's a little bit

0:14.5

wet in California today. Yeah, there's some rain. And of course, the city decided to have a wood chipper

0:20.1

outside my window here. I've got some headphones on, so hopefully you can't hear it. But of a question for you when it rains like this.

0:37.8

And it is people outside of California like to make fun of us because we have such

0:43.1

large reactions to such relatively little weather. But it is raining in Los Angeles,

0:49.7

like torrential downpours. There are like flooded gutters. It's no joke. Is it as bad up north where you are?

0:56.9

So I live kind of in a farming community and there was a legit drought for a while there,

1:01.3

you know, a stretch of the last 20 years. So nowadays, people are just happy when it rains.

1:34.9

But do you have a favorite hot toddy for this winter weather?

1:38.8

No, I don't.

1:39.5

I don't, but I will write that one down.

1:41.9

That one sounds pretty good.

1:42.9

I've never even heard of that.

1:43.6

That sounds good. Brett, why are you laughing? I mean, what producer Brett is just rolling his eyes and laughing?

1:48.6

Do you have a favorite? What do you drink? Just a bunch of whiskey to make your gut warm.

1:52.8
