0:00.0	Welcome back, Kathy Gantz was live. Mark Bromley is our guest. I got to share the bad news
0:19.6	with him that he spends half his time outside the Alpha Quadrant. I bet he didn't even know
0:24.2	it. I always introduce him as Mark Bromley, president of Ignace's Press, the most important
0:28.3	publisher in the Alpha Quadrant. But now I've just learned today that he spends half of his
0:32.4	time in the Beta Quadrant. Hello, Mark Bromley. More than half probably. I'm doing missionary work,
0:37.8	man. Oh, no, Jimmy told me that the Alpha Quadrant and the Beta Quadrant, the line that separates
0:45.2	them is the middle of our sun, which means we spend half the year in the Beta Quadrant.
0:49.2	I never knew. I'm off in there. I'm off in there. Well, I know you're because the whole
0:53.0	Earth is there. You've never, you've never left Earth. I know you said I've never left
0:58.4	Earth. How do you know that? I have my suspicions. I don't, I don't think you have access

1:27.4	ahead again. Well, all right. Well, I'm glad you're here with us now in the Alpha Quadrant.
1:31.0	Yes. Two. I appreciate it. And you know what else is here in the Alpha Quadrant? What?
1:38.4	This book. What book? Let me see. Let me talk a little bit about this. Oh, what is Christianity? Yeah.
1:43.3	You tried book that last time. I haven't gotten, you had need to tell your publicist. I haven't
1:47.7	not gotten a copy of that. So I will, I will let them know this is because we want to interview
1:52.8	the author, the last writings of Benedict the 16th man. And you know, like, okay, I come on here
1:59.4	and I can hock books and all that sort of stuff. But I, and I read this, you know, when we had a
2:06.6	translated, and it was a manuscript, I didn't need to read it for the purposes of deciding where
