| 0:00.0 | It's me, thank you for listening to the podcast, watching it on YouTube or Twitch or |
| 0:28.2 | having fun playing Resident Evil. It has been a blast. Please join us. Well, however, you |
| 0:37.0 | enjoy me. I just want to say thank you so much and just get right into our intro and you |
| 0:42.6 | know how we do it. I hope you're feeling strong. I hope you're feeling brave. I hope you're |
| 0:49.7 | feeling loved and feeling grateful for that love. I hope you're feeling enthusiastic and happy |
| 0:56.8 | about the changes that have been going on with the pandemic and the mass mandates being lifted |
| 1:03.9 | and the return of more personal and social freedoms. I hope that brings joy into your heart. |
| 1:12.2 | However, I'm aware that it also might bring fear into your heart. Maybe you don't feel ready to |
| 1:17.9 | get back out there that you're feeling and that being inside and locked away feels more comfortable |

| 1:51.9 | that is personally absolutely okay. Take your time and push yourself at your own level, |
| 1:59.9 | but get out there. Push yourself somewhat every day. Don't let yourself lose who you are. Don't |
| 2:06.9 | let yourself get comfortable in just the malaise or just being wrapped up. I do my work from home |
| 2:15.8 | and stay home and do all that because there's so much out there. That's what I've been |
| 2:21.0 | finding. I'm getting so excited. I'm getting ready to go to Las Vegas this weekend. I'm not even |
| 2:26.0 | doing comedy. I'm commentating on professional wrestling matches because that seems fun to me. |
| 2:32.8 | That's a new experience. I've never done commentary for an entire show before. I've never really |
| 2:38.4 | hung out in Vegas for a weekend before because I don't drink and don't particularly like the gamble. |
| 2:42.8 | But it's going to be a new experience. I'm going to make new memories and that's what I've been |
