I am a phonetic reader, so Jakob Poeltl's name is Jacob Puddle

We've learned on the show—I am a phonetic reader. Jacob Puddle. I said Yaka Pearl. I'm seeing Yaka Patil. Either way, he told me her name.

Wisconsin ultimately received a 3-seed in the 2022 NCAA Tournament Midwest region.

This is a subjective and satirical claim about performance vs. weight.

I would love to give a detailed presentation on the pros and cons of every international NFL city

I would love to give a detailed presentation on pros and cons of each city. Something to think about. 11. I'm willing to show how much I care about these international games. And I feel like the only way to do real journalism is to go and feel it and take it in yourselves.

This is a statement of intent/desire regarding show content.
