The following is a

special report from Los Angeles.

It's Friday now, September 4th.

Welcome back, hockey fans.

Hello, Los Angeles Kings.

Welcome back, Kings fans.

Welcome back, Loyal Royals.

My name is Jesse Cohen.

It is Friday, September 4th.

This is Royal Half Radio.

For those of you who are not aware, I would urge you to go check out the LA Kings.

Sorry, I keep pumping into my mic here.

Urge you to check out the LA Kings YouTube page.

The interview that I referenced yesterday with Nelson Emerson is up on YouTube.

It's also up on Spotify and, uh, Apple podcasts, the audio version, wherever fine podcasts are curated.

You can hear our conversation with Nelson Emerson.

We talk about the upcoming rookie showcase.

Um, His role as general manager of the Ontario Reign, a bunch of roster decisions.

We talk about the goaltending situation.

It's a good conversation, I think, and I hope interesting.

And I've just lost my notes for some reason.

I don't know why.

Mike, oh, there we go.

Got him back.

All right.

Sorry about that.
