| 0:00.0 | Grumpy old geeks, a weekly talk show hosted by Brian Schultmeister and Jason |
| 0:06.7 | DeFilippo discussing the finer points of what went wrong on the internet and who's to blame. |
| 0:16.4 | Welcome to Grumpy old geeks, I'm Jason DeFilippo. And I'm Brian Schultmeister. Yes, Brian, |
| 0:21.2 | I fucked up. Yes, yes, yes, I know, I know, I know, I got the next thing wrong. |
| 0:26.4 | Normally I would jump on you with Glee, but ever since everybody else did because this is the |
| 0:30.7 | world we live in now everybody's like, ah, you made a mistake, asshole. Yeah, pretty much it. |
| 0:35.9 | But I have to say that for the most part, yes, so here's if you didn't listen to the last episode, |
| 0:40.4 | I screwed up on the next thing saying it couldn't schedule simple things. And I was just looking |

| 1:28.5 | because he left an anonymous email. I used to like you guys. I still do. But you both have been |
| 1:34.8 | saying things nowadays without doing any research. Nest doesn't support temp scheduling. Really? |
| 1:39.8 | The smart devices are smart enough. You guys are not sick burn sick burn. Oh my god, man. So I bet he |
| 1:49.6 | still doesn't like us now anonymous jackass, whatever. Oh god. But speaking of the the mid roll |
| 1:56.9 | curve and the feedback we got now we close out the show and we normally leave these iTunes ratings |
