| 0:00.0 | Welcome to the Summer Call Play podcast. We are so happy to be with you today. |
| 0:04.8 | Happy Tuesday. It's today. |
| 0:06.8 | Freakin Tuesday. And you want, I'm really happy to be with you today, David, because we are |
| 0:10.9 | sitting so close to each other in our never ending quest to improve our sound of two sticks. |
| 0:15.4 | We decided to move closer together and I'm staring directly into us. |
| 0:18.7 | Yeah, we're about seven inches apart on opposite sides of the mic. It's pretty intense, actually. |
| 0:24.0 | It almost feels like some sort of sexual position, which might be the best way to record a podcast. |
| 0:29.1 | It's something vaguely sexual to start touching your feet every once in a while. |
| 0:33.2 | My feet play a little game of footsie under here. It's, I like it. It's interesting. |
