00:00 – 25:26 - John kicks off the show by discussing the Colts reported interest in Kareem Hunt, who spent the last few seasons in Cleveland.

He then talks about Jonathan Taylor, and if his reported injury is legitimate, or a ploy in the contract negotiations.  

26:27 – 42:11 – Greg Rakestraw of the ISC Sports Network, and who also hosts the Colts pregame show, joins the program! John and Greg discuss the Cincinnati Reds, who have struggled as of late.

47:37 – 1:16:54 – Zak Keefer of The Athletic joins the show! Zak and John discuss the disheartening news that former Colts running back Marlon Mack has suffered another Achilles injury, and will miss the 2023 season. Zak and John then dive into the Jonathan Taylor situation, and what their interest in Kareem Hunt could mean. They discuss the peculiar timeline of events surrounding Taylor and his reported injury, and how the running back position can still be helpful for young QB’s.  

1:16:55 – 1:28:16 – John goes back to answering some questions and comments from listeners on Twitter about the Colts and Jonathan Taylor. He then answers some questions from callers!
