| 0:00.0 | Hello and welcome to another episode of Dugo1. My name is Dave Waniki and as always I'm here with Matt, |
| 0:16.0 | Shu and Jess Perkins. Hey it's so good to be back. Thanks so much for having me once again in the |
| 0:20.4 | podcast. And for having me once again in this podcast. Well we also have a guest this week and |
| 0:25.6 | she's one of the best. Could you please welcome Naomi Higgins. I did sound like I was wanting |
| 0:32.8 | an appalls break. Yeah you said thank you. Thank you so much. Naomi, how are you? What's up guys? |
| 0:39.6 | I'm good. I'm happy to be here. You know very good memories on this podcast. What are they? |
| 0:46.0 | I believe I was voted 2018's best guest. Yep out of two. So and so far. You are I think there was |
| 0:54.1 | a hot competition that you know. I think it was up to you. I went to Nick Mason. I was up against |
| 0:59.2 | two Nick Mason reports. I think maybe Dusha was on there. Yes. Yeah. Talking about Ryan Gosling. |
| 1:05.9 | And maybe Andy Matthews was talking about some science guy. Yeah. I was like Newton. I was |
| 1:13.5 | like Newton. But I've got to tell you. Naomi, hang on. Naomi, you are absolutely in the running |
| 1:18.4 | for 2021's best guest so far. Am I the only guest? No, you're the second so far. But |
| 1:23.6 | I forgot about that. I thought the joke was you were the only one but you're right. You have |
| 1:26.9 | had guest. Well, hopefully out of two, I'd still be in the running. Well, let's see what you got. |
| 1:36.6 | They've had this show work again. Usually we take it in turns to report on a topic often |
| 1:40.5 | suggested by a listener, the person reporting goes away. It doesn't have to research brings it back |
| 1:44.4 | to the group. The other people don't know what they're going to report on. And Naomi, you have done |
| 1:49.8 | us a massive favor and gone away. Done the research this week. I have. I think Jess knows |
| 1:54.2 | what the topic is. Yeah, great. We love that. Jess might know the topic but Matt and I have no idea |
| 1:59.4 | what it is. Just knew it and forgot it. Okay. So I'm wondering if any of you will know who this |
| 2:06.1 | person is. Jess, obviously not. Well, yeah, if it was so forgettable, probably not. Matt, I assume |
| 2:12.8 | will not. Okay. That's a clue. All right. Oh, it's a no-odd thing. Yeah, it's a smart people. |
