| 0:00.0 | In the heat, my God, the heat. |
| 0:03.8 | Hey, we're recording the podcast. |
| 0:06.8 | Shut up. |
| 0:08.0 | Good morning to you, wherever you are, because it is. |
| 0:13.8 | Morning, so much. |
| 0:15.2 | For her, June 20, 25. |
| 0:18.7 | My name is Bernie Burns sitting right over there. She hits all of her notes. It's Ashley Burns. Say hi to Ashley, everybody. Is the heat raising your voice? My voice cracked a little bit there. And I thought, like within the moment, I said, I'm going to lean into that. Just go with it. I want to hear that pack. I want to hear what that sounded like. You can just put it on repeat. It's Friday. You did it. You made it all the way through this week. Everyone made it through this week, it looks like. We all did it. Congratulations. Everybody who's listening made it. Yeah. And let's see if we make it through the weekend. You guys, we're about to trigger all the heat people by saying the UK is about to get a heat wave. Happy solstice, by the way. Today is the longest day of the year, the 20th of June. This is the longest day, and it brought the heat with it. I'm going to reach out to Nico. You know what we need for the soundboard is we need a theme song for low stakes arguments. We're going to have a low stakes argument with argument with everyone today. Are we in fact? |
| 1:10.9 | Here we go. |
| 1:11.9 | It's getting brutally hot here. |
| 1:14.1 | I just want to point out somebody was campaigning for a portable air conditioning unit |
| 1:20.4 | and somebody else was listening and bought that portable air conditioning. |
| 1:24.1 | You're welcome. |

| 1:28.9 | brutal Scottish heat wave. We are going to hit, are you ready for this? |
| 1:33.8 | 79 degrees Fahrenheit. We're going to 25 degrees real metrics. We're going to be hitting. |
| 1:42.3 | That's brutally hot for us. Look, we're, we're assuming panic stations. We've got windows all through the house open where everyone has been issued a fly swatter. Good Lord. This is, it's one of those things. It sounds like a stupid problem to have. It's like, oh my God, the weather outside is just absolutely too gorgeous, right? What are you going to do about it? |
| 2:18.1 | But, and we've said it before on this podcast, bears repeating. It's easy to be like, I don't want to get a green, but. Wow, that was she, that was her impression of you guys. Wow. That's right. Skihing. That was un-fucking believable. Hi, everyone. In this lesson, we're going to talk about passive aggression. No, no, no, no, no, no, straight up aggression. |
| 2:20.9 | Okay, that's what the heat has done to me. |
| 2:18.1 | Uh, me. In this lesson, we're going to talk about passive aggression. No, no, no, no, no, straight up aggression. |
| 2:20.9 | Okay, that's what the heat has done to me. |
