| 0:11.1 | Welcome to a special edition, talking to League Fitness. |
| 0:16.0 | This is not the last episode. |
| 0:17.8 | That has been recorded, but, you know, it's just a, it's just a thing. |
| 0:21.2 | Like, Tommy, whenever we have Marlon Heber on, we just have to, like, something happens, and then we have to, we have to re-record and we figured, yeah, this is worth talking about. So, Sean Woodland, Tommy Marquez. Tommy, how you doing tonight? I know you're packing for a big trip to London so I appreciate you hopping on yeah yeah I know it's a |
| 0:38.4 | it it's twofold right when Mars and Heber come on there's always a re-recording also I feel like |
| 0:48.3 | big news always drops a very weird big news comes across our ballot very interesting times we're we're moving and shaken |
