Welcome back to the “Not Your Common Conversation Podcast" featuring Chris Downing and Omar Henderson, on this week’s episode, the guys are enjoying that great warm spring weather and decided to chat real quick about a few things. Omar kicks it off by telling us about his new route home from work avoiding that terrible traffic. Work then leads to Chris and his workout routine and what’s been changing. Later Chris mentions how he did audio for a wrestling match and was intrigued how all the wrestlers were talking and hanging out backstage. Even after those “brutal” matches.
