| 0:00.0 | Hey everybody, it's me, Matt Whitman from the podcast you're about to listen to. And that sigh |
| 0:04.5 | that you are hearing is a sigh of resignation and disappointment because Destin is making |
| 0:10.8 | us do a content warning again. Destin, this is your idea. You explain yourself. Yeah, we, |
| 0:17.5 | I mean, we're talking about Pompeii and there's just some stuff that went down in Pompeii. |
| 0:24.2 | And I think that there's a point. |

| 1:51.9 | Yeah. about that with my kids. So you might want to listen to it first. I know it's been a couple years, but we've been waiting to talk about it because I knew you were going to make a video about |
