| 0:00.0 | Hello, everyone. Chris Gathen here and this is another episode of the Knowledge and Mileage |
| 0:05.1 | podcast. Now, I know it's pretty crazy out there. However, we are inside recording this podcast |
| 0:12.6 | so we can still move ahead for you guys. And on the other end, if you are viewing this as well, |
| 0:18.2 | you'll see that I have Justin. Let me see if I get this last name right. |
| 0:23.0 | Stenstrom on the other line. Did I get that right? Perfect, man. Perfect. Perfect. Anyway, thank you for |
| 0:28.2 | coming onto the show, sir. Really appreciate you. Now, again, for those viewing, you can see that I'm |
| 0:33.3 | holding up a book here, and it's called Elite Mind. I actually finished reading this |
| 0:37.7 | quite a thick book last night. I actually took it to me, uh, with me to India as well. |

| 1:29.1 | So at this time, when we definitely want our immune system not to be compromised, it makes sense |
| 1:34.7 | that you eat well and you supplement even better. Think about feeding your friendly bacteria |
| 1:41.1 | in your gut now. And you've heard me probably talk about P3OM before because this is a probiotic that |
| 1:47.6 | I've been taking and suggesting for many years now. |
| 1:51.5 | And I'm going to give you guys the opportunity to get 20% off this right now. |
