| 0:00.0 | Tech-savvy consumers are lining up today to be the first to purchase Sony's brand new stupid piece of shit that doesn't do the goddamn thing it's fucking supposed to. |
| 0:12.1 | Hey, somebody's mad at technology. |
| 0:14.0 | We're recording the podcast. |
| 0:15.2 | Got up. |
| 0:16.0 | Good. |
| 0:17.6 | Pardon you. |
| 0:19.0 | Where are you are because it is Running Somewhere! For March 17, 2020. Five, I was late. All that bragging last week, I was late. Hi, everybody. I'm Bernie Burns. Sitting right over there. She's happy. It's St. Patrick's Day. It's Ashley Burns. Say hi to Ashley, everybody. And a happy St. Patrick's |

And maybe a couple sneaky fries. That's the trouble with McDonald's is, uh, is, especially if you like take kids. First of all, every adult with kids is also a garbage disposable, right?
