think along with Tanner and Ben?

Speaker 1 (00:30):

Tanner kept himself composed up there, ran into some traffic,
but uh, that's all you got to do in that role,
and you're gonna have some traffic sometimes. And for him
to be able to stay under control and do his
thing out there and get some swinging mess it was massive.
