Good Morning Gjallarhorn Episode 011 – A Ted Talk

Good Morning Gjallarhorn Episode 011 – A Ted Talk

 

Good morning everybody, Dave here, with another episode of the vodcast Good Morning Gjallarhorn. As the title of this episode suggests, Drew and I are talking with the Daily Norseman’s one and only Ted Glover. Ted discusses a wide range of topics from coach Mike Zimmer, Gloria Estefan, his service, the Jacksonville Jaguars game and some of the good and bad from that, the 2018 season, plus the new rules, and even his froo-froo beer tastes. LOL. We think you will love it!

 

It was a show full of laughs and few serious bits. We always love talking with our favorite Purple Buckeye.

 

As always, enjoy the listen!
