Thank you. Welcome to the Undercenter podcast presented by St. Xavier University.

You know my guys, our Bears insider Josh Shrock, follow him in Shrock underscore and underscore

off.

Of course, my other guy, our Bears be reporter, Alex Shapiro, follow him, Alex Shapiro, NBCS.

Claire Tonia running the show, and we are broadcasting live from the NBC podcast studios.

We're going to do a little mail bag today, of course, full of Mr. Anderson's questions,

and I'm not saying the bad way, he holds us down.

And we enjoy that. We enjoy everybody that spends a little bit of time with us.

And I'm going to say it again, particularly with how the season's going. We're going to need you.

So thank you. Thank you for tweeting at us.

Thanks for tweeting at us, interacting with us, reading, writing.

Spitting a little bit of time. That makes it more fun, I think, hopefully for everybody. My guys are going to bring you what's going on at Hallis Hall at any game that the Bears are at.

I'm going to convey hopefully the emotions that you feel and they're going to convey some of the emotions that they feel with what may take place this year.

Hopefully it goes better.

It is early, but we want to be frank and honest and really just have that safe space for everyone that's dealing with what looks like

can be a season that may not go as well as planned.

All right.

Now, Melbag, Josh is going to handle it.
