| 0:15.4 | video camera and record a few too. So if you're watching us on YouTube, thanks for joining us. |
| 0:20.1 | You should know that there's |
| 0:21.6 | literally a couple hundred episodes that are available to you that are all as awesome as this one |
| 0:27.0 | that you can only listen to by having a podcast app and going over to our website and checking it out |
| 0:33.6 | there. But for those of you who are either watching or listening today, we have a treat. I've got |
| 0:38.0 | Abe Ordelani on the line today. He's going to jump on the screen with me in just a moment. We're |
