0:00.0	Hello, everybody. This is Ellen Weatherford.
0:22.3	And Christian Weatherford.
0:23.5	And we are here with just the zoo of us, your favorite animal review podcast, where we take your favorite species of animals and review them and rate them out of 10 in the categories of effectiveness, ingenuity, and aesthetics.
