And, you know, I love doing, uh, uh, some radio work with MLB Network on, on Sirius XM.
2:08
That was fantastic.

But my true passion was, was still in kind of world history and religious studies, which is something that, uh, uh, I kinda became passionate about in high school, but had a great teacher there.
