| 0:03.0 | Hey, we're recording the podcast. |
| 0:06.0 | Shut up. |
| 0:07.3 | Good morning to you, wherever you are, because it is morning somewhere. |
| 0:14.9 | For October 9th, 2020. |
| 0:17.4 | My name is Bernie Burns sitting right over there ready to accept her award. It's Ashley Burns. Say hi to Ashley. I would like to think. Do you know what awards I'm talking about today? No, what awards are talking about? Wait, hold on. Hold on. Hold on. This one comes with a million dollar check. I'll just tell you that. A million dollar check. Not Nobel then. It is, yeah. No, I was getting, Nobel has that kind money? Yeah, they, well, they invented dynamite. That's the company that invented dynamite. Oh, that's right, big dynamite. That's the, that's the big boom industry right there. So, uh, one of the, Nobel Prize winner, you say Nobel? Nobel. Do you say Nobel Prize? You say Nobel Prize? |
| 0:54.2 | I called the Nobel Prize. Let me try to erase everything we've said out of my memory and I'll |

| 1:39.3 | Like it happens a lot. |
| 1:40.3 | When you have like really brilliant people, they can be a little weird, right? That's just a thing. Their brain works in a slightly different way. They have different priorities. And some of them are probably like, I don't even know how to pronounce Nobel. I'm not going to answer. |
| 1:54.7 | Right. According to the article that I read on AP News, some people know it's coming, like they get a heads up. |
| 2:02.0 | Or maybe their innovation or contribution was more recent than some people. |
| 2:07.0 | Like the people who won the Nobel Prize for Chemistry this year, some of their work dates back to 1989. |
