Are you looking to connect your brand with Minnesota's most passionate sports fans? Score North podcasts deliver engaged listeners every week. Here's what Pat from Padreggs Brewing had to say. People call during the podcast and say, are you open? I want to come there. We have people call who listen to podcasts who don't live here and say, hey, can I get beer in California? We've had a couple of people call from California, another guy call from New York. No, you can't get it there. We had another person drive here from Indianapolis, stopped here, was going to a Vikings game, was a big fan, and actually stopped here on the way because they were podcast fans and Vikings fans. So for us, we see really tangible results for our investment, which is good.
Whether you're a local business or a national brand, Score North offers custom ad solutions that drive real results. Ready to get in the game? Contact Mark Ellis at mark.ellis at hbi.com. And let's talk about how we can grow your business together.
Go! Judd, this has become, I think, one of my favorites, like June, July episodes that we've done now for four or five straight years. The top 20 current Vikings rankings on Purple Daily. And we've gone back and forth. We've determined it is your turn to rank the top 20 current Vikings. My historical... at least hoarding of notes goes back to, I think, 2021 or 22. That's the first time that I remember us doing this exercise where I think Justin Jefferson even then was the number one ranked player on the team. Are you ready to give us your top 20 current Vikings?
I am. I've doubled, and I started on Friday, made the preliminary list, doubled, triple-checked it, went through the depth chart, made sure I didn't have a glaring omission, and I am now prepared to unveil this season's top 20 Vikings. Of course, from 20 on up from there, because we would not want to spoil. We'll start at 20. Yeah, we would not want to, or 20 on down, 20 on up, 20 on down probably. Anyway. I would not want to spoil the fun.
I think it's on up, but I always get confused when people say like higher or lower or up when you're talking about rankings.
Just just flip it. You know, it's 20 on down like it can be one through 20 or 20 through one. So just flip it.
I mean, the way for the graphics department here, the highly regarded graphics department, we are going to count technically up from 20 to 1 here. But first, why don't you tell the audience about Quick Trip? Start the week the right way here. I would love to do that.
And, of course, you know you stop in at Quick Trip. All of the options are there. Breakfast, lunch, dinner, all of that good stuff. But you also can play Quick Trip's Mountain Dew Quick Climb and score cash this summer. Now through August 16th, play free every day in the Quick Rewards app. Daily cash prizes climbing to a $250,000 payday at the top. Buy select Pepsi beverages to earn bonus plays. It's your summer.

Also, North American Banking Company is here presenting these rankings today and supporting our podcast, which we appreciate. And they can support your banking needs if you're interested in a better banking experience, maybe a more communal banking experience, a more personal banking experience. North American Banking Company, founded in the Twin Cities in 1998, six locations across the Twin Cities now. And I have personal experience going back a couple years now with North American Banking Company. They are the official bank of the O-line committee as well now. So find out more information, nabancode.com slash Mackey. Member FDIC, equal housing lender. All right. Are you doing honorable mentions or are we just like jumping into the cold talk here?
I've got them, but it's occurred to me I don't want to give them away because if I do, then they're off the list. That's true. So it's actually more fun because there are there are a few guys who I think we're gonna get done and you're and you're gonna be like, wow, that guy didn't get in at like 18 or something like that.
