We got it now though.

A place where we chat about life over a cold one or two.

It's time to belly up to the pod with Mike Fratelloni and your host Chris Reavers.

Oh boy, oh boy, here we are once again live.

Well I guess live is kind of a not relative term when you're a podcast,

but it's the Weekly Scramble.

My name is Chris Reavers live at the Minnesota State Fair alongside my guy, his name is Mike Fredlone with Fredlone's hardware and

Garden Stores. Michael, this is your, what would you call, this is my Mecca?

You are Mr. Minnesota State Fair and I say that every single year that we come out here

We've been doing this for what 700 years now, but you love the Minnesota State

I do and I even when it's raining well that's funny she said that because I don't really care for it well it rains

It's not nearly as much fun. Yeah right we did that my wife and I were walking around and I said I don't remember the last time I've been to the fair when it was raining because I just think I would have hopped in the car and went home.

I in fact I do remember.

You do.

So you and I were here.

This would have been I think we were still a radio show back then okay but we did the because you know back then you remember how

The Thursday so ladies and gentlemen for those of you that are a little bit unfamiliar with the show that Mike and I have done over the course of the years,

we used to do what was called the beer show and we were on at 6 p.m.

on AM 1500 on AM 1500 ESPN

and it was always fun because on Thursday nights you could quite literally

hear whatever Grandstand band was performing you could hear them warming up,

and in some cases they would start.
