Andy Holloway (2:14)

It is, it's go time, right? I mean, this is fun.

JJ Zachariason (2:17)

Yeah, you know, I was thinking I had, I had Mike on year one with Perspectives. I had Jason on year two.

Andy Holloway (2:26)

Yeah, save the best for last.

JJ Zachariason (2:27)

You are, that's what I want to say. Look, I was going to say, you were either going to react in a way that was, you hate me the most, which is not true, obviously. I love you all three equally. And then, then I was going to extend an olive branch and be like, Hey Andy, we have a lot of things in common. You know, we're both adoptive parents, right?

Andy Holloway (2:45)

Sure.

JJ Zachariason (2:46)

There's that. We both have, we're both nerdy at heart, right? So we have that. And then the third thing, we both have annoying co-hosts.

Andy Holloway (2:53)

So no question about that one. That one's the most solidified commonality between us. Yeah.

JJ Zachariason (2:58)

Forget about, forget about the children. We're just going to go straight to the insanity of the co-hosts that we have. But no man, I mean, it's great to, great to sit down and talk to you. I haven't seen you guys. I was actually messaging Mike last week. And I haven't seen you guys, I don't think since the Tampa FSGA, which was like legitimately when my daughter was like born and like an infant. And now she's going into second grade.

Andy Holloway (3:26)

That's, time is, time is weird, man, it flies. That's really weird. Time is weird.

JJ Zachariason (3:31)

The pandemic was in there and like that.

Andy Holloway (3:33)

Yeah, that was a long time ago.

JJ Zachariason (3:35)

But it was, it was like, I'm a completely different person now. Now I'm the, I'm the one who in those events will not go out and drink and stuff and be stupid. Like not.

Andy Holloway (3:43)

Because we're old now?

JJ Zachariason (3:44)

Because we're old.

Andy Holloway (3:45)

We're old parents now?

JJ Zachariason (3:47)

Yeah, I now I'm like, oh, oh, this is now I now I understand, going back and just getting sleep as opposed to the value.

Andy Holloway (3:56)

Yes.

JJ Zachariason (3:57)

Yeah, exactly. But no man, I love having you on. I love talking to you. You're one of my favorites in the space. But I want to start out this conversation by talking about you guys and you in the fantasy space because I said this in the show sheet, but you are old and I'm old now.

Andy Holloway (4:13)

We are. We've gotten up there.
