| 0:00.0 | John, I'm going to be disappointed by your answer and I know I am. |
| 0:04.8 | But I was thinking just moments before we started recording. |
| 0:07.7 | Is there any food of any kind that you missed from your couple of years in Atlanta? |
| 0:13.8 | Um, see, I, you know, I didn't leave the house much when I was at Atlanta because I was working for Paul. |
