| 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. |
| 0:16.6 | Welcome to Grumpy old geeks, I'm Jason DeFilippo. And I'm Brian Schultmeister. So, |
| 0:20.8 | Brian, we went to a podcast movement. Well, we attended four hours of one day of broadcast movement. |
| 0:28.4 | Yes, I've had BMs that lasted longer than PM. But so yeah, went in, checked it out. |
| 0:35.2 | Yeah, it wasn't what we thought it would be. I thought first off there'd be a lot more people. |

| 1:35.9 | watching did not. So it was pretty maddening. And there was this whole thing. I got the badge that |
| 1:42.6 | they gave me the wrong badge when I came in. I got the super duper deluxe industry professional |
| 1:46.8 | badge turns out if you pay the most money, you can't go to the basic ones. I'm not sure. I buy |
| 1:53.6 | that. I think you just had a bad security guard. She had the sheet and she says, I can't let you in |
| 1:58.7 | only people with these badges are allowed in here. And I checked on some of the other boards |
