Welcome back to another week of the podcast. Uh, we're about to be joined by, uh, Matthew live from Washington, DC, gonna tell us all about the UFC, uh, some of his in- funny interactions over there. Uh, also gonna get some- we're gonna preview State of Origin Game Two at the MCG. Uh, what a game it's gonna be. Queensland, New South Wales, Queensland. We saw how dominant they were in game one for 60 minutes, but New South Wales ended up getting the win after the Kalyn Ponga send-off, so, and some, some shocking team selection, um, that has gotten a lot of backlash that we're gonna talk about, ask Matthew's opinion for. But stay tuned this week also, uh, when this comes out and with our review on Wednesday post-match, there's a new batch of Mate versus Mate hats up, uh, Queensland and New South Wales. If anyone wants to head to the Instagram, the link tree's in the bio. Go and get yourself one, uh, in time for game three, uh, whatever state that you follow. Uh, but nonetheless, let's get into Matthew, who's joining us right now. And we're joined by the big fella right now, uh, the one and only, uh, Ma- Matty Johns live from Washington. [laughs] Mate, how, uh, how are things over there?
