| 0:00.0 | Hello, delicious friends and welcome to Who Dead What Now, the History Podcast that is not your history, with me, your host, Katie Charlwood, |
| 0:22.8 | History Harlet and Reader of Books. |
| 0:26.5 | You know, I'm really trying to be positive about everything, anything, but my God, |
| 0:33.9 | the world is on fire, and it seems like some people are intent on just not only lighting the match, |
| 0:41.9 | but dousing the place in accelerant, you know, it just seems to be happening more and more. |
| 0:49.2 | And my patience just seems to be aware and thinner and thinner. |

| 1:51.0 | I have actually had some really, really lovely, like, emails this week. Like, I've had a lot of |
| 1:59.0 | nice, nice comments and emails and a very, very fun interaction |
| 2:04.1 | in my comment section that was just Monty Python quotes, but in conversation. And obviously |
| 2:11.4 | some really fun gifts. I'm not saying Jeff guys. I'm not doing it. Now, I do feel, I do feel like I need to be more positive, like, |
