Welcome into the Charter podcast brought to you by St. Xavier University.

I'm Ruthie Polinsky, Clay Harbor, Alex Shapiro.

It is draft week, fellows.

It is time. It is go time. We are ready. I'm fired up.

I was getting a little bit tired last week.

I was just kind of done. I'm kind of done.

I'm like, I'm ready for this to be over. I kind of hit that wall where it's like, get me to Thursday.

You know, I'm done reading the mock drafts. I'm done talking about it. I just want to see what

happens on Thursday night. But now I'm re-energized. It's Monday. It's draft week. Things are going to happen. It's going to be fun. It's going to fly by. And it'll be Thursday night before we know it. How are you guys feeling? Are you feeling excited, rejuvenated?

Hell yeah. Wonderful weekend. Didn't cover any White Sox baseball. This is my first weekend in a while where I haven't had any games to cover,

so it felt really good. Went to Jackson Park and saw the cherry blossoms. Unbelievable,

especially because they kind of fizzled out the last two years. So very restorative,

very wonderful weekend. How about you, Clay?

Got a great weekend. Got to an Easter egg hunt with my nephew and my nieces.

I got to hang out with them all day.

I ate an abundance of cookies.

And if you guys know me, I typically don't eat cookies.

Pretty healthy guy over here.

But I paid it off today in the gym this morning at 7 in the morning.

When you were sleeping, Alex, the claymaker was in the gym.

Sleeping?

You clearly do not know my life because I was awake at 1 a.m.
