And we're live. What's up folks? Welcome back to the roundup. No Santi, we got Rob here. Rob heard me talking shit about him the other week. So he not only joined this week, but he booted Santi.

1:16

And then like, you know, you're listening. I'm impressed. Do you listen? So were you an empire listener before joining?

1:24
