0:00.0	When is burning something, the opposite of ripping it? The answer to that at the end of the show,
0:05.9	my name's Tom Scott, and this is Lateral. On today's show, we welcome back three people who've all
0:17.3	been on the show before. It's always great to know that we have three people here
0:21.1	who will bounce off each other. Why they're all wearing Zorba balls, I have no idea. But we start today with Bill Sunderland from Escape This Podcast. How are you doing? I'm strapped in. I'm ready to bounce. I'm knocking them both off this mountain top. I didn't realize this was going to be a versus Battle of Zornball. Oh, it's like a Mario Party mini game. You guys are going down.

1:39.2	sit back, not move, and the others will all fall off on their own. That sounds right. In a Mario
1:43.4	sense or in an assassinating CEO's sense.
1:46.3	Interesting, interesting, topical.
