| 0:00.0 | Hello everyone and welcome to episode 362 of the juice box podcast. |
| 0:11.0 | Today I'll be speaking with Kate Hall. Some of you might be thinking Kate Hall's been on the show before. |
| 0:17.0 | Actually, that was a different Kate Hall. The first Kate Hall is an Olympic hopeful who has type 1 diabetes. This Kate Hall is a long time soap opera writer. |
| 0:28.0 | She's written on As the World Turns All My Children, The Young and the Restless, and currently, and for quite some time now, actually, on General Hospital. |
| 0:38.0 | Now, General Hospital, I used to sit with my mom every day after school and watch General Hospital with her. |

| 1:38.4 | She's actually also married to a man who has type 1. |
| 1:41.5 | Both stories are interesting. They're all in here. |
| 1:44.1 | Plus we're going to learn a little bit about writing for soap operas. |
